“Damn it,” I curse under my breath after being unsuccessful in making a smooth jump over the high-up tree acting as a sort of barricade. Almost made me trip to the ground but I overcome the momentum... mainly because of the heavy footsteps I can hear coming from behind me.

I’m not about to die now. Yeah, because one slip up could result in my death or anything related to that by those on my tail at the moment. If any of that happens to me today, I would only have myself to blame because I led myself into trouble. So much for trying to be good today.

I’ve been on the run for minutes now. And that was after I was discovered lurking about the territory of those I shouldn’t have stepped my foot on. Well, my curiosity be damned because I wanted to see if I would sight something I had come across a few days ago when I had trespassed like I did today.

So it happened that I had been on the hideout after trespassing that day. During the process of trying to not get discovered, something had caught my interest. And just as I was about to go take a look at it, the owners of the territory had come into sight. Just to save my skin, I had to neglect whatever it was, with the hope of seeing it another day.

Today wasn’t in my plan for sightseeing. It never even crossed my mind that I would do any of such today. But as nature would have it, and with plans not coming into place, I decided to go explore the rival territory. And look what it eventually got me into.

Okay, now I can hear the heavy footsteps approaching more and more. But at the same time, I can sense that I was close to making a complete escape away from them. I just needed to increase my pace and that was it.

‘You should have listened to your instincts when you had the chance to,’

Well, that was weird. I think that just came from my head. Yeah, it felt like a thought but the weird thing was that it didn't sound anything like my voice. I didn’t sound so low-pitched like that. Made it feel like something or someone was talking to me without me seeing who the voice belongs to. Or was I imagining things?

I decided not to let that get to me because I still have an escape to make. The supposed voice in my head isn’t going to save me from those maniacs hellbent on catching me today. And neither would it make me move faster than this.

It’s rather strange that I haven’t gotten tired yet. I do not even feel weary as I ought to after going on such running motion for minutes now.

I think I need to start asking myself what is going on with me. Am I okay? I mean, should this be happening at all? Asides from the advantage it was giving me from escaping from the reach of those approaching me, it still felt weird. I should be feeling even the littlest of pain by now. Not to forget that I am totally barefooted.

I can see it now. My line of victory. The path that can separate me from them. All I need to do was make a single rollover and then probably a long jump. With that, I am completely free from their reach.

And so I begin to prepare to do it. The rollover was because of a dried cutdown tree that I don’t think would be safe to jump over, knowing how bad it was during the first jump I did over a similar situation. I'm not about to risk my safety again.

The rollover was successful. Now it is left for me to do the last thing on my supposed bucket list. And just as I prepare to do it, I feel the air thicken over me.

Instantly I know what that means. I am at the inch of getting nabbed from above. My heart skips a beat immediately. I have tried not to be scared since I began this whole escape thingy but now I am scared as hell. So scared that I could pee my pants without shame.

But I keep going.

“Don’t jump, Kira,” I whisper to myself, and then I yell: “Slide!”

And without thinking about the consequences, I change what I initially have in mind to do. What I do is go down to the ground and then slide with full force. So much force that I wouldn’t be surprised about my legs ripping apart if the need be.

At the last second, a finger that felt more like a claw tugs at my hair but I easily sway away from the touch during the whole sliding thingy, until I find myself crossing the line that I had to cross. However, I couldn’t stop there because the momentum has completely taken control of the situation.

“Oh no!” was what I could utter as I watch myself getting ready to bump into a tree. And yeah, that did happen, sending myself head-on to the tree.

It stops the momentum but causes an instant throb in my head as I collapse to the ground with my legs spread apart on both sides of the tree.

I can literally see stars floating above my head. I thought I wasn’t going to feel any pain again, but this just shows that it was the adrenaline that took over me when I had been on the run.

The proof that I can indeed still feel pain is when I supposedly recover from the knock on my head. I sit up to get up from the ground and that is when a shooting pain goes through my leg. Damn, that doesn’t feel good.

When I look down at the leg, which is the right one, I can see it is bruised around the side. Doesn’t look like something I should worry myself about, but still, it is something I have to note. Mother is going to kill me if she sees me in this state.

With the tree as support, I manage to get up to my feet. I then look down at my long skirt which has a flair at the hem, as well as a slit by the side that aided my running. A weird-looking skirt, I know. But I can see that it has been ruined in most part.

My top, with a similar color to the skirt, is still in perfect condition. To be honest, it instantly gladdens my heart because I didn’t want to feel more exposed than I already am. Took a lot of nerve to get me to put on this armless top which was incapable of covering my stomach. So, apparently, my navel is completely exposed at the moment.

A smile that is laced with nothing else but mockery is plastered on my face the moment I turn around to take a look at where I am coming from.

What made me resort to that is the sight that I am met with. A bunch of angry naked men that look like they are ready to pounce on me if they get the chance to. Unfortunately, they can’t because they have no way around this. Perhaps if they had caught up with me then, it would have worked for them.

It looks weird that they are all without clothes. Normally I should be bothered about the sight, especially seeing the glories dangling in between their legs. But isn’t this something I see a lot? A general phenomenon, I must call it.

The distance away from me to them is nothing too much. A single jump with a lot of force would land them directly in front of me, which could spell disaster for me. But they have no guts to do that. And this is the advantage I have at the very moment.

“C’mon what’s stopping you all from coming? You all scared?” I ask, taunting them with a creepy smile attached to my face. The responses I get from them are a couple of snarls, especially from the two big wolves that just appeared next to them.

Right in front of my eyes, the wolves transform into naked men just like the others. They stand up to their feet with glares evident on their faces. It makes it look like they are performing an already rehearsed rhythm.

“Stop shooting daggers at me and take up the challenge. Or is anyone of you not up to it?” and yeah, they snarl again at me which only amuses me more. “Yeah, that's the only thing you can do, you cowards!”

“I dare you to say that again...”

And right in the middle of the group of angry naked men comes the only clothed one among them. No lies about it, unlike others, this one screams terror.

    KIRA:I haven’t seen this many tattoos in a long time. The inkling on the man’s body was running down his neck and probably the rest of his body because every visible part asides from his face has inscriptions and symbols on it. If he wasn't clothed, I would be able to tell how much of the ink he possesses on his body.Of course, I recognize the man the instant he came into view. He was one of the symbols of authority of the territory I just saved my ass from through an intense escape. Although I must say this is the most closeup I have ever been to him.He is a beta, to be precise. Second only to the alpha, like every other territory.His aura proves how much force he carries about with him. Even with the distance between me and him, I could feel how much pressure he was generating. The pressure that could most likely suffocate me if I cross the line with him.The pressure and everything... I don’t give a shit about it. It’s not like he could do anything to me. Maybe.I wasn’t done t

    REID:I’m starting to realize how much I hate paperwork. I’ve got a pile unattended to and I’m certain it will be that way until the motivation kicks in. As for the motivation, it doesn’t look like it’s going to come in anytime soon.Perhaps I should have joined the warriors to hunt down the intruder they told me about. It could have taken my mind off this tedious work. Wonder if they did catch the intruder because I haven’t heard anything from them yet since they began the hunt.Being the head has not been easy over the years. I have tried my best to emulate my father’s reign as alpha yet I do not seem to be getting the same result as him.

    KIRA:“I think I’ve tried my best, Kira. I’ll be going back now to my duty post,” Bradley says as soon as we stop in front of the little building in sight. Looks like something that could only house a family of two or three. Apparently, it’s my house. And we are four living in it.“Thanks for fetching me as usual, Brad,” I tell Bradley with a huge smile on my face. The look he gives me tells me he is not buying my act. But I still decide to play along with it. “What?” I ask him.“Just get in. Your mom’s waiting for you,” was what he says and I give a playful nod in return as I turn to walk up the balcony into the quarters. “And don’t get yourself into any more trouble!” he calls out before I could reach the top of the mini stairway.“Yeah, yeah,” I force the words out of my mouth, already eyeing the door in front of me. I do not bother to knock before pushing it open to get myself into the apartment.The first thing my eyes catch sight of is a woman standing behind a table. The items

    KIRA:“Don’t you know how to knock, you moron?” I yell at Adam as I struggle to get a nearby top on. It’s a sort of body hug and the only thing I can grab quickly to cover up my naked torso.“The last time I checked, there isn’t a door at the entrance,” Adam, shielding his eyes from my view with his hands says.“Then at least you could have waited outside a little before barging in here like that. What the hell, Adam!”“It’s not my fault that this is my room too,”“And so? Can’t you respect my privacy? Would you like it if I barged in here while you’re in the middle of a jerk-off?” I counter his defense. I’m not about to let him hear the end of it yet after putting me in this situation.“That’s if you ever catch me doing one,” he says, looking all pleased with himself. He still has his hand over his face but I can tell because of the smug smile plastered on his face.“What’s going on in there?” Mother’s voice resounds from the parlor into the room.“Nothing, mom.

    REID:Hunter spun around the moment we step foot on the premises that we should not have entered. From the corner of my eye, I can see that he has his pistol held out but not pointed at me. And what warranted that? It’s because we were presently surrounded by several men in red who have guns pointed at us.I look at the ones directly at my front, a dry smile starting to make its way to my lips. Of course, I anticipated this so it was no surprise that they showed up.They are the warriors of the Red Legion which is where we had planned to come. Known to be deadly and quick in finishing enemies off due to their intense killing routine as training. To get past them would take a miracle, as so I heard. Fortunately, I didn’t come with my men or it would seem like I came here for an attack.“We come in peace,” I announce loud enough for all of them to hear. My hands are raised high above my head in an act of surrender just so they could get the memo that we are not here for a clash.“Yet yo

    REID:As I try to settle in, I notice how the interior of the building is nothing in relation to the structure outside. The edges inside were smooth and not some oddly shaped design with no definite explanation. Feels like a roundhouse inside a square-shaped structure.Where we are now is plain. And when I say plain, it truly is. Nothing of quality to show for it as they seemed to neglect anything that would make the room stand out.I just have to overlook all that as I focus on the Elder who is comfortably seated and looking right ahead of us through those eyes that seem pretty dead. The pupils were not even part of the regulars and if I had any other conviction, I would say he is blind.I’m totally uncertain about what to do. I have no idea if I am to speak first, judging by how the settings around here were. One thing I know now is that I have got some serious explaining to do once my father finds out that I visited the Elder.‘Hunter, should I go ahead and speak?’ I mind-link Hunt

    KIRA:“So, Alexia, we are here now,” I say as I take a look around the woods. Won’t lie, being in here is giving me vibes from two days ago when I was on the run away from the warriors of the Night Blaze pack, even though I am not in their territory at the moment.‘You should try using the mind-link just as I’ve taught you. It’s going to be embarrassing if someone catches you talking to yourself,’ Alexia, my newfound spirit wolf, speaks in my head which startles me a bit. I’m still not used to this whole thing about having a living entity in me. Pretty sure it would take me a while even though I have come to accept my new identity.“It’s sort of difficult,” I say as I bend to pick up a stick on the ground.‘Just shut your mind off other things and you will see it would work. Takes quite a lot of practice but in no time you’ll get used to it,’I start to consider what she says. She’s right about it being embarrassing if caught. But it doesn’t change the fact that I’m not used to this w

    KIRA:Slowly I turn around, mustering enough courage not to reveal my emotions. “Wh– What are you talking about?” I ask.The distance between Bradley and me was a little much now due to walking out on him a few seconds ago. So what he does first is to cover up the distance a little.“I only asked a simple question,” he says, his eyes seeming like they could see through me.“That didn’t seem like a question to me,” I rebuff.“Do you have anything to hide?”Anxiously, I peel my eyes off him for a brief second before looking back at him. “Do I look like I do?”Bradley folds his arms below his chest. “You tell me,”“Well, I don’t. So stop questioning me like I’m doing something wrong,”So I turn around once again to leave. I do not even bother to listen to note if he was on my tail but I am sure he is.He proves he is directly behind me when his voice gets straight to my ears. “You could have just said ‘no’, you know? You didn’t have to be so dramatic about the whole thing,” was what he s

    REID:I find Venice in her room about twenty minutes after my father left. Didn't even need to knock to get into the room because she left the door ajar.For a while, I stand at the entrance as I contemplated going over to sit beside her. She looked like she was thinking through a lot of things and I didn't want to meddle. But then I was here for a good cause.I eventually pushed myself to the bedside, taking a seat directly beside her. She doesn't even flinch or reacts to the fact that I've joined her and I stay quiet for a pretty long while until the courage to say something kicks in.“You sure about your decision?” is what I ask her. Trust me, I was not truly fine with speaking yet.She says nothing for such a long time that I thought she was going to ignore me totally. But then she speaks:“Why wouldn't I be?”I find myself nodding as if in understanding. Seems she has made up her mind about the whole thing before even confronting our father.I can't say I was a hundred percent in

Let me teach you a good lesson!” Hunter yells at the already retreated Diana.He was already up on his feet with the sole aim of going after her but I was quick to get up on my feet as well and then hit him square in the chest, sending him back down on his seat.It was a good thing that I sat this close to him or he would have acted as the dimwit that he always is and go make trouble for himself. I wonder when he is going to learn how to comport himself.“If you dare go after her, I will have your head!” I threaten him with a glare.He does not even look threatened by what I just did as he scowls right in my face and then looks away. It took a lot of willpower for me not to smack him right across the face.I do the right thing by looking away from him. Damn it was exhausting having to control a grown-up.

    REID:“We need to find a solution to your problem. We cannot keep letting you endanger the lives of others in this pack.” I say that with a bit of anger directed toward my beta seated right in front of me.It has been a week since the incident that had me having to put him down again. And for over a week, until yesterday, he was chained down to his bed. You could still see the scars that came with the silver chains used on his wrist. Must have hurt like hell.But I, for one, am not enjoying this. I should not be feeling endangered by the one I call my right-hand man. Literally makes no sense. How can I guarantee the safety of others when one of the problems comes from the one that should be assisting me in leading them?“I’m sorry, Reid,” he starts to say, reflecting soberness. “I wish I have a way of getting through this without putting the lives of others at risk but this is a tough call for me.

    KIRA:I don’t know who suffered more from the attack between Bradley and me. Because we both look terrible at the moment.After the pack warriors had come around during the showdown between Bradley’s wolf and Kelvin’s, they had been able to handle the situation by subduing Kelvin’s wolf. But it took a lot before they were able to get that done even though they had come in their tens.Right after they had accomplished that, they took Bradley and me away from there while carting away with the struggling body of Kelvin who had been in his human form then. He was still not himself.The warriors had taken Bradley and me to the pack hospital which is where we both are now. The pack doctor had tended to our wounds already minutes ago now what we were made to do is rest so we could heal in time. It seems the claws that came with the possessed Kelvin had more than just ordinary swipes because it was taking time for either of us to heal.“That was your friend, wasn't it?” I hear Bradley ask, ta

    KIRA:I feel I have lost a lot of blood. I can hardly move my body as I lay on the ground waiting for what fate has in store for me next.I can already hear incoming footsteps which means he is coming for me once more. The thought of it is frightening, especially judging that I have no defense against what is coming against me.When I hear nothing again, it prompts me to force myself to sit up so I can take a look at what is going on. I won’t necessarily say I succeeded in doing that because my elbows were just put up as a support to lift my body upward a little bit.I realize why I hear nothing from him again. This is because he is right now in the process of shifting. He has bent to the ground a little as the transformation starts to take place and in less than two seconds, a different entity was found in place of him which made me more scared than I was of him.His wolf is brown like almost other wolves I have sighted. The only difference is the size. Being that he is just an ordin

    KIRA:“It’s the substance,” I say with my gaze still fully fixated on the spot Kelvin has his eyes on. Well, it did not come as a surprise to me because I was already aware of what killed my parents.I stand upright a little while later and look at Kelvin who cannot seem to take his eyes off the thing. And to be honest, it made me wonder if he had fallen into a hypnosis with the way he was acting.“Is this what you think we might find in here? There’s nothing special about this.” I say to him and then walk away from there to go check on something else.Even after a minute or so, I realize that I have not gotten a response from Kelvin which makes me look back at him. And to my surprise, he is still looking down at the substance.It was at that moment I knew something was wrong. How could he still be standing in the same spot since and be staring at the same thing? That was awfully strange.“Kelvin?” I decide to reach out to him by calling his name. But when he does not respond to my ca

    KIRA:I’m out here freezing even though I got a pullover on. The weather seemed to have increased drastically in the last two days. And now I am beginning to regret that I agreed to be out here. At least, not by this time of the day.It’s way past noon already. I am certain it has hit the evening clock. But what do I know... I’ve been out here much longer than anticipated already.A few more minutes passed and I agreed that it was not wise being out here anymore. So I turn around intending to leave when I sight the person I’ve been out here waiting for.A frown makes its way to my face when the person’s gaze comes in contact with mine. I cannot believe that I got my time wasted just because of some link. He should have kept to the deal.The first words that leave my lips when he reaches right in front of me are, “You mind-linked me to be here yet you went on to delay me. Who does that?”He seems apologetic when he says, “I’m so sorry. I had to tend to something real quick at home. Did

His situation has worsened because he now looks red all over. I cannot even place my hands on what triggered him to be this way.I finally respond to Diana’s inquiry. “He is at the point of going berserk.”“Berserk? Is this because of me?” she asks.“Not at all. The Abomination caused this on him. It is a long topic to discuss if I am going to go into the details with you.”I am glad he has not gone wild yet. I think he is fighting the urge to let the whole thing take control of his senses. Because if not, he should have switched already.Diana confirms my thoughts. “Whatever it is that he is fighting against, he is doing a pretty good job holding it off.”I nod. “So I see.”“What are we going to do now?”I look back for a second at Venice who just asked that.

According to her, it was the only way they could still be on track with their skills.I had agreed but only on the condition that I would be there to witness today’s training. And after today, they could have the training area to themselves whenever they needed to.She had thought it over first before agreeing to it. Not like she had a choice. And that is why I am here to witness the remarkable display of the skills the Red Legion possesses.Their prowess was much unique from what I have ever seen during any form of practice made by warriors.
