Chapter 64: Cracking Some Bones
It was only the following evening that the two left the room after having eaten a wholesome amount of food.
"What do we do today?" Nyx asked while their on their way to the front bar, which was a normal club with no erotic dancers.
"Hmm. I haven’t thought about that either," Ravenna replied, falling deep into thought.
Nyx, "How about we make some money?" suggested excitedly.
Ravenna’s eyes shone with excitement, too, when an idea also popped up on her mind. "Let’s do some bone cracking!"
"No! Absolutely not!" Nyx firmly refused and walked ahead, ignoring Ravenna, who was calling out from behind.
"Just this once!"
"No! What if you get hurt? The last time you were almost got."
"I won’t! Have you forgotten I’m a..."
"A werewolf. I know. But you know very well that your power isn’t sufficient to handle everyone. What if..."
Ravenna sighed, pleading tugging Nyx’s sleeve. "Apart from being a useless werewolf, I’m a trained... assassin." She whispered to her ear the word ’assassin’. "I’m used to this. Nothing will happen, alright?"
"Alaric will kill me if he finds out I let enter a street fight."
Ravenna frowned and placed both her hands on her waist. "He has nothing to do with me anymore. Why would he care?"
Nyx raised her eyebrow in disbelief and then chuckled, "Says the one who was crying like a child because he misses him. What a loser you are?" And she left for counter.
Ravenna frown deepened, wondering what Nyx was talking about, but she could not recall a thing. "Did I really do that? No... hehehe... she must be lying to get back at me for being a stubborn freak."
Nyx stood at the counter and ordered a glass of wine as Ravenna joined her.
"Hey, Sir. Where’s Alex?" Nyx asked in a rather polite voice.
"The boss... oh, there he is," the bartender replied, gesturing to a man who had just walked in, dresses all in black.
He emitted a friendly aura, a charming smile never leaving his face, especially when he saw him favourite customers.
"My lovelies, how are you doing?" Alex, the manager of Lún Huí, greeted the two ladies. The man’s English was quite good considering he was a Chinese native.
"We all know who is your lovely. Leave me out of it, dude," Nyx scoffed, turning her attention away from him.
"Hello, Alex. Don’t mind her. She has been quite moody today. I don’t know what medicine she took," Ravenna replied jokingly and gave Alaex a friendly hug. The man had been quite a good host to them ever since they arrived in Hong Kong. They had spent tons of dollars in the club.
"No worries, dear. So, what’s on your things-to do today, girls?" Alex asked, sipping the wine he had just ordered.
"Nothing much. We are planning on touring the city to find any street fights," Ravenna replied, winking at him.
Alex was quite surprised by that, and he placed his glass down, then asked, "You can fight?"
"Yes. Don’t I look like a dangerous assassin?" Ravenna said it seriously, but Alex took it as a joke and laughed heartily. Nyx shot her a glare, warning her from saying no more.
"Dangerous and you should not be used in one sentence. You don’t seem anything near it. How even old are you?"
Ravenna thought about it and then answered, "I’m 20 and 11 months."
Alex laughed again, "So your birthday is next month. Hope you’ll still be here by then." He moved closer to her and whispered, "Who knows, you might get one in a lifetime proposal from the handsome me."
"Eeew!" Nyx interrupted when she heard what the man just said. "How lame. I’ve told you countless times to stay away from her if you don’t wish to die. Her man won’t hesitate to slaughter you if he finds out you are flirting with his woman."
Alex rolled his eyes and faced Nyx, "Where is he? You’ve been talking all about him, so where’s is he? And moreover, my dearest Ravenna said she’s not taken. Isn’t it, darling?"
Ravenna nodded, staring at Nyx with a teasing look. "I’m hundred percent sin...gleee..." Ravenna went quiet when Nyx grabbed a serviette from the counter and shoved into her mouth.
"Weren’t we supposed to go crack some bones? Or should I start with him?" Nyx came down from her seat and motioned towards Alex, smiling knowingly.
"No, no, no," Ravenna squeezed herself in between the two. "No fighting."
"I wasn’t planning to. I only want to crack his bones in a second, " Nyx said and winked at Alex, who clearly did not take her words into count. He thought she was just bluffing.
"Okay, but there’s no need for that. Let’s go now, to the street fight, alright?" Ravenna chuckled awkwardly. "We’ll take our leave now, Alex."
Alex was about to nod when something struck him, "I do... have a place in mind where you get what you want. I mean, a fight."
"Where?"
"No!"
Both Ravenna and Nyx answered at the same time, but Alex only listened to his darling. "Here. Though it’s illegal and I don’t think you would be interested in such things."
"I’m in. It’s not like the street fights are legal, too. We actually love everything illegal. Everything about us is illegal. Even our existence is illegal, right? Nyx?" Ravenna excitedly placed her hand over Nyx’s shoulder, planning to coax her into giving in.
"Will you listen if I say we shouldn’t go?" Nyx asked, is resignation already.
Ravenna shook her head, grinning childishly. "That’s a yes, right?"
Nyx sighed, staring at Alex grudgingly as if shouting all this was all his fault. "Lead the way, Mr. One in a lifetime."
Alex chuckled and swiftly patted Nyx’s head, then walked away towards Ravenna side at a lightning speed. "Let’s go."
"Don’t let me catch you alone. I’ll crack your skull open."
They walked inside towards the club and were taken through places they didn’t know existed there, before they took a lift, which led to an underground.
"You both are quite lucky. Toady happens to be the day when the big boss will be joining us. You might have a chance to meet him."
"The big boss? Aren’t you the owner of this club?" Ravenna was somehow surprised, as well as Nyx.
"No. I manage it since the big boss resides in another country."
When they reached down, they were met by cheers and jeering, which could render one deaf.
Ravenna stared at ring, a surge feeling of getting in there rising up rapidly. She cracked her knuckles licking her lips expectantly then said, "I want to ceack some bones."
