Chapter 176 - One Hundred And Seventy-six : Rapheal Was In Hot Trouble

Everything happened in a flash, one moment Lia was ripped roughly out of Raphael's embrace, and the next her both mates had descended on him while she stood dazed and clueless on what to do.

Lia had been the one to start the fight and she swore, she had wanted to hurt Raphael so bad till he cried fresh and hot tears but after the roof gaping incident where he saved her from the falling debris, her anger dwindled immensely.

She was too surprised to get angry, it was as if someone doused the fire burning in her heart with an extinguisher. Lia didn't know where or how to start again.

But it seems her mates took up the case and this time, their outburst was ten times worse than her fit.

Their fight was intense and so fast it was a blur and even as a supernatural, she had a hard time keeping up with their movements.

Lia stood rooted to the ground while scratching the back of her scalp helplessly, how does she stop this fight?

Raphael kept replicating himself to escape while Daniel and Asher were hot on his heels, bombarding him with lethal attacks.

"Hey! You guys should stop - " Lia was yet to finish her statement when Asher's favorite painting that had been hanging on the walls seconds ago, came flying towards her direction and left her with no option than to duck for her safety.

"What the … " She cursed out in apparent disbelief. So this was what being caught in the middle of a fight looked like?

Gosh, this was such a big hassle,? she didn't want to be the casualty damage. Yes, she would not die but that painting would have given her much pain if it had landed on her head.

Seriously, why were her mates making a huge deal out of this? Raphael had only touched her waist.. well, he did nib on the back of her ear - Damn, this was why she disliked Alpha males, they are so possessive and to make it worse, she had two.

Lia, why is your life so dramatic? How weird, she would kill any woman she found hanging around her mates.

But that was not the point! The point is that they should be solving this matter diplomatically and not like animals.

Well, one of her mates was an animal, figures - scratch that - half - animal. Wasn't she half-animal too? Well, a quarter of an animal... Again Lia, focus on the problem at hand.

"Stop!" She commanded but her voice was drowned out by the noises of properties being destroyed - Asher's properties, he's going to shed real tears when he finally calms down.

"Guys, this is not funny any longer" Lia sidestepped the glass table thrown her way - unintentionally - or what remained of the table which shattered upon impact with the ground.

Unfortunately, Lia was so distracted she didn't get to see the oscillating ceiling blade heading her direction on-time until it pierced into her skull.

The force knocked her to the ground and she released a sharp breath as the painful spasm went through her body.

Her mates must have felt the pain through the mate bond cause the fight ended instantly.

"Lia!! " Both of them yelled out her name and ran to her aid with immediate effect.

Daniel helped her off her feet while Asher cleared out the rubbles and dust from the barely redeemable sofa; the leather was ripped open exposing the messy foam beneath, which looked like something a goat chewed on, thanks to their fight.

Lia was hyperventilating, a blade pierced into her skull? A f*cking blade was hanging out from her head and she could even see it if she moved her eyes sideways!

"Hey, calm down baby girl, " Said Daniel who was encouraging her to take a deep, long breath.

"Calm down? " Lia threw her head back and laughed hysterically for a while until she halted and yelled at him with boiling anger,

"WHAT DO YOU MEAN CALM DOWN! I SHOULD CALM DOWN?! WHO SHOULD CALM DOWN?!"

Daniel scrunched up his face with his eyes closed as his mate showered his face with her angry saliva.

Asher ignored her ranting, tipped her head to the side to get a closer look, and announced,"I need to take it out"

"It would hurt her like hell " Daniel pointed out.

"Exactly" Lia supported her werewolf mate while glaring at Asher for suggesting such a gory idea with blood from the affected injury oozing down her forehead.

"What do you suggest then? "

"I can take half of her pain away," Daniel said but his mate refused right away.

"As much as I would love to see the both of you suffer for this " She pointed to her head and continued "But this incident happened all because of me. If I hadn't attacked Raphael in the first place which led to him touching me, both of you wouldn't have engaged him in a fight "

"But this is going to hurt you badly, why not take the easy route?" Daniel tried to convince her to change her mind.

She frowned at him, "Just because I'm a girl and your mate doesn't mean I'm weak. You said it yourself Daniel, 'I'm an Alpha'. So it's time to man up "

Daniel hated that assuring smile on her face, "Do you have any anesthesia?" He questioned Asher hopefully, "Lidocaine should do the magic by blocking the nerve signals in her body "

Asher gave him a dirty look, " I'm a freaking vampire, why would I have Anastasia? Moreover, our mate says she's okay, why don't you have a little faith in her? "

"Fine, do it then " Daniel gave in reluctantly with a deep sigh and readjusted his position so Asher could replace him since that spot was the closest to the injury.

"I'm going to be quick and clean, so it wouldn't hurt much, alright? " Asher informed her while she nodded in understanding.

Lia was just about to console her overprotective werewolf mate who had this cute frown on his face when he kissed her without warning.

Her eyes were wide and she sat still, she hadn't seen that one coming at all. Eventually, she leaned into the warm kiss and began to match his pace.

But winced when Asher snatched the blade from her head swiftly with only a little pain in its wake and a gasp which was swallowed in the kiss. Lia now understood why Daniel kissed her; it was to distract her from the pain.

Unlike what she had imagined, the whole ordeal went smoothly and Daniel drew away before he lost his self-control.

There was a hint of jealousy on his face but Asher didn't say anything, instead handed her a towel which she used to add pressure to the bloody gash on the side of her head; it would heal soon anyway.

Because they had finally settled down, Lia had a clear view of the destruction in Asher's living room.

With the gaping hole in his roof, it was a huge surprise they hadn't brought the rest of the house down. Dust was in the air while debris lay waste on the ground and surfaces.

Lia saw Asher suddenly sink to his knee in front of the damaged painting; oh, she said it. He cradled the picture to his chest with a sour expression on his face like a mother who had lost her only son to the cold hands of death in a war.

She nudged Daniel on his side, urging him to question the mourning vampire as she was stopping the bleeding on her head.

However, her werewolf mate was unwilling to go, seeing as the vampire was in a bad mood.

Who knew whether Asher would make true of his threat by burning his doodle especially now he was in a peeved state.

"Hey" Daniel called out slowly but cautiously and proceeded further when he didn't receive any hateful glare, "What's so special about that painting? "

Asher held the charred artwork tighter to his chest, it was obvious he was the one who burned it while using his fire ability on Raphael.

"I kidnaped this item two hundred years ago from a pirate ship and was planning to get a lot of money by selling it in the next auction held outside the town but now… " Asher confessed, outlining the painting nostalgically and getting charcoal on his fingers, "But now, the glory, the money, It's all gone"

"Your painting is not the only thing gone, where is your brother? " Lia whose bleeding stopped, tossed the towel to the side as she asked. It seems the real Raphael escaped while her mates were tending to her.

"We are going to need a big, big, grave," Daniel pointed out while staring at the corpses of Raphael's duplicates laying in mass on the ground.

"You sure you guys didn't kill him?" She asked doubtfully after seeing the sheer number of Raphael's dead copies.

Her mates did have a murderous intent this time, it seems she has to be careful the way she communicates with the opposite sex.

Lia couldn't help but wonder what her mates would do if they came to learn that she and Ben had once rocked on the dance floor during Caroline's party?

"Trust me, he is still alive and kicking," Asher told her with a wave of blazing anger in his eyes.

It seems this was not the end of the fight; Raphael was in hot trouble this time.
