THE WEREWOLF MAFIA HUNT
17. Jacob takes Ethan Back

"Damn it! Unhand me! This is Victor's club! I'm Victor's cousin!"

Frank doesn't care about Luke's scream. Nimble, he took her out of the club's main room, while Victor simply waved coldly, telling Frank to continue his actions.

Outside the club, Lukas did not give any resistance. Frank pushes Luke to the front of the exit door forcefully, then blows sharp blows in his stomach so that Luke really feels the consequences of his behavior. Luke groans and asks for forgiveness, but Frank remains firm. Luke vomited while holding his stomach in pain after being beaten. Frank also forcefully takes Luke's club member card.

"Listen carefully, Lukas," said Frank in a threatening tone, "This is Victor's club, and we do not tolerate rude and condescending behavior here. You will be blacklisted from this club, and if you still dare to come, I will make sure that it is your last mistake."

After giving Luke a final warning, Frank throws him out of the club violently. Luke fell on the sidewalk, embarrassed and in pain. He knew that he had made himself into a laughingstock among his friends, and he had to swallow this shame. Even in front of the club many people are still waiting to go inside. Frank also throws Luke's wallet after taking his club member's card.

Meanwhile, inside the club, the atmosphere was still tense. Everyone was still waiting for Victor's reaction to this incident. Ethan, however, is still sitting on his feet, smoking his cigarette and watching the situation closely. He has seen enough to assess the character of those around him, and this is a great opportunity to understand more deeply about the dynamics within this club, especially between Victor, Jacob, he said, and a security guard who's partly a werewolf.

Jacob, who was still standing in the room, stepped closer to Ethan. He offers Ethan help, though in a more gentle way than before. "If you're having financial difficulties, there's a place for you in our group" Jacob said in a soft voice. "We are brothers, and brothers always help each other."

However, Ethan kindly rejected the offer. "Thank you, Jacob, but I'd rather live independently. I'll be fine."

Victor, who was still processing what had just happened, nodded at Jacob as a sign of approval to his actions. He then spoke sternly, "Now does Frank also need to teach Luke's two friends a lesson?" Victor looked at Shopia and Daniel who were silent with their heads bowed. Both seemed to be trembling in fear.

Victor stared intently at Shopia and Daniel who were bowed, and the tense atmosphere was still felt in the air. However, before he could take any further action, Ethan decided to talk.

"I guess we've made enough points" Ethan said calmly. "I don't want this problem to get bigger. We can all get back to enjoying tonight without having to ruin the mood."

Victor weighed Ethan's words closely. Then he nodded, giving his blessing to Ethan's suggestion. He did not want tonight to end with more acts of violence or riots at his club.

"I agree" said Victor at last, his voice resolute. "We're all adults here. Let's go back to enjoying tonight."

Shopia and Daniel, who now knew that they had crossed the line, could only nod obediently. They both realized that they had almost gotten punishment from the club's bodyguards.

Bella, who was still curious as to what was really going on, whispered to Ethan, "What exactly happened just now? Why did Victor's bodyguard suddenly defend you?"

Ethan smiled faintly and replied in a whisper, "I've known Jacob well before, Bella. Don't worry too much."

Bella received the answer with a curious expression still emanating on her face. However, he did not ask further. The atmosphere at the club slowly began to recover, and people returned to their respective activities, albeit with a feeling that tonight had an unexpected event. For Ethan, he has managed to make sure that the other werewolves at this club know he is there, even though the real secret is still up.

Bella, though still curious about what happened, finally decides to have some fun. He joins Shopia and Daniel in the middle of the dance floor, trying to forget the previous incident.

Meanwhile, Victor sits back at his main table, trying to ease the lingering tension. He knew that tonight had been a pretty messy night, and he wished that no other incident would ruin his night.

Ethan, while smoking his cigarette, continues to pay attention to the situation around him. He knows that tonight is the first step in his quest to find Vincent and his men, and he must be vigilant. As the night progresses, she feels closer to the answers she seeks in this mysterious nightworld.

Bella, Shopia, and Daniel are getting dissolved in the euphoria of the night. They had spent several hours dancing, drinking, and having fun. Alcohol that they consume excessively makes them increasingly unable to control themselves. Their dance is getting wild and disorganized. They had forgotten quickly about Luke's problem. Even Ethan wasn't too concerned.

Meanwhile, Jacob approaches Ethan who is still sitting quietly, smokes his cigarette, and watches the situation closely. Jacob could see that Bella, Shopia, and Daniel were getting drunk and getting carried away. He wants to talk to Ethan about something more sensitive, but Ethan is seen sitting alone.

Jacob gestured with his head towards the back door of the club, signalling that he wanted to talk to Ethan in person. Ethan, though somewhat surprised, nods and follows Jacob to the back door. The sound of music began to sound more and more fluid as it moved further away from the dance hall.

'DUK BUK PLAQUE ....'

The sound of blows, blows and physical torture is increasingly heard clearly in Ethan's ears which are very sensitive because they have the sense of werewolf. Ethan's nose also smells of fresh human blood. Ethan's heart begins to react by beating faster.

When they arrived in the club's dim back room, Jacob explained the situation the club was in. He described that the person they tied to bare-chested in the middle of the room was a club worker who was caught betraying. The workers have been cooperating secretly with the organ trafficking mafia. He's looking for victims by putting drugs in the victim's drink. Then the mafia who infiltrated as a club visitor kidnapped him for his organs.

The man is currently gagged and continues to be brutally beaten by club security. Body bruised. His nose and mouth were spitting out fresh blood. The mouth and teeth of the club guards began to change to resemble that of a werewolf even though they were not yet in perfect shape due to the sight of fresh blood. Their appetite and thirst suddenly appeared. They ate it and drank its blood.

"Wait on! Control yourself! No one will eat it before I allow it!"

Jacob immediately pulled his crews from behind to stay away from the man being tortured.

Ethan, who saw this, began to read the situation and inhaled a deep breath. He tried to stay calm in the face of all this. The initial clues to the existence of mafia networks trafficking human organs are in sight. Ethan must be patient, so as not to be too obvious to hunt them.

Jacob then makes a very terrible offer to Ethan. He said they could earn a lot of money by selling the club's internal organs, which could be used to help Ethan financially.

"Thank you for the offer, Jacob," Ethan said calmly, though in his heart he was very nervous. "But I prefer to work as a regular person. I don't want to get involved in this kind of thing."

Jacob nodded in understanding. "Of course, Ethan. No one is forced here. We know that everyone has their own limits. But we as predators still need food as a support for our lives. We can't just take it off."
