The She-Devil And Her Alphas

Chapter 119 - One Hundred And Nineteen : I Heard Voices

"So what do you do for a living? " Jenny asked Raphael who seem to be a bit distracted cause she didn't get any reply.

"Raphael? "

"Sorry, excuse my manners " He said, roused from his thoughts.

Trevor regarded the guy slowly, no matter how much he sees it but he can't help but feel anyone associated with Asher has this dangerous aura surrounding them . And no matter how hard he tries to avoid them , his family keeps getting involved with the Nicoli one way or the other.

" I was asking what you do for a living? " Jenny repeated her question

"Oh about that, I'm a graphic designer. I create and design logos for businesses, websites and in my spare time , also a freelance animator, creating animation and visual effects for movies, videos games and others " came Raphael's reply that made Trevor cringe inwardly.

He didn't believe a thing Raphael just said, he was sure he must have exaggerated some parts ; how could someone be so good at everything?

" Wow " Jenny squealed in excitement " That must explain the tattoos on your arm " She said running her hands down Raphael's exposed arms and tracing the tattoo of a dragon drawn there.

Raphael smiled " I'm actually quite an artistic and creative human being " He winked at her "I like to follow my passion "

Trevor rolled his eyes and was thankful his younger brother Rex wasn't here to see this - he wouldn't want him following their mom's footsteps.

"Am I the only one or have you noticed that it's being quite a while since Lia went upstairs? " Trevor chimed in and thankfully garnered his mom's attention.

" You're right " Jenny concurred and stretched her neck to catch a glimpse of the stairs "What's keeping her? "

" Maybe I should go check up on her " Trevor stood up before even finishing his statement and covered the fleets of stairs in large strides.

Standing at the entrance of her room, he had raised his hand to knock when he suddenly picked up voices, and they sounded masculine.

His brows knitted together into a deep frown, how could someone be in her room? Though he had gone to his room to change earlier but their mom would've told him if she had a visitor, so how could someone have gotten into her room?

Suddenly his eyes widened, could it be some guy had climbed the tree outside their house and entered her room through the balcony?! was his sister in trouble?

Without knocking, Trevor pushed open the door and stepped in expecting to stumble upon a particular scene playing in his mind but the reverse was the case.

Trevor was surprised when he saw his sister lounging on the bed and operating her laptop. she glanced up at him, quite startled to see him in her room without warning.

"Don't you remember that's a word called 'knock ' before entering? " Lia queried, brows drawn together in a displeased frown.

" Where is he ?" Trevor asked, his eyes darting around the room as though a police officer looking for an evidence in a crime scene.

"Where is who? " She asked with a confused expression on her face.

"I heard voices - male voices " Trevor said, emphasizing on the 'male'

"I don't know what you're talking about Trevor "

But Trevor was adamant on his claims "I'm sure of it, I absolutely heard voices - two distinct voices to be exact "

Lia massaged her brows " I really don't know what's going on with you Trevor but I can assure you, I've been alone all this while . Perhaps the voices you heard must have come from my laptop , I'm currently watching a movie " She said gesturing to her device on the bed that was currently playing a movie as she claims.

Trevor wanted to say something but decided against it - perhaps she was right,he must have been imagining things. But why was she upstairs when they have a guest downstairs?

"Why are you not down? " Trevor decided to ask.

Lia gave her brother a dirty look " Are you really asking as if you don't know ?"

Trevor took a deep breath, how could he not know ? But Jenny was his mom - For good and for bad, and there was nothing he could do to change it.

"Even if you don't like it, he's still mom's guest. So show a little respect and come downstairs " Trevor commanded and turned to leave when he suddenly stopped and said to her sternly

"Always remember to keep your balcony doors locked, you don't know who might sneak it " Then he left.

As soon as he left, Lia released a breath she didn't realize she was holding - that was so close. They were so engrossed in their discussion that they didn't notice realize Trevor was outside the door but thanks to a Vampire's incredible speed - it saved the day.

Without hesitation, Lia decided to find her way downstairs before her dear brother bangs in again as if he owns the place.

Cloned Raphael felt like something wasn't right, it's connection with its master was suddenly disconnected and his suspicion was further confirmed when he saw the girl climb down the stairs with a smug smile on her face - the plan has failed.

"I think it's high time I left already " He said and stood up from his chair earning a surprised expression from Jenny.

"Why do you want to leave suddenly " she asked, pouting her lips.

"I just remembered I have something very important to settle at home " He lied, wishing nothing but to be here at the moment. If their creator have been caught, then he was surely Asher's next target.

"But the - "

"I'll see you later Jenny " He interjected, bent and placed a peck on her cheeks before sending the kids a hurried goodbye.

Thankfully none of them assumed the role of an escort making it extremely easy for him to escape.

But as soon as he went outside, a hand was placed on his shoulder and the next thing he knew, he found himself in an unfamiliar place but before he could say Jack Robinson , his heart was ripped out of his chest and body set ablaze as he crumbled to the ground.
