I calmed my breathing a bit and then asked. "Can you tell me more about this contest?" I asked stupidly. I had never heard of any initiation ceremony before, nor had anyone told me how to pass it.Evelyn picked up a dry branch and scribbled it on the ground to form a mountain peak. "This is Moon Mountain, considered the holy place of Black Moon. Each new member must go to the top of the mountain to receive the moon goddess's blessing and a seal. But the survey is not simple. The mountain is divided into three, clearly divided. The first part will be vertical slopes, testing the speed and endurance of werewolves. In the second part, testing strength and agility, traps and other wolves will be everywhere; they are all carefully selected. The third part is the test of intelligence, pass and you will reach the top of the mountain. Everyone will gather there waiting for you. Alpha will be the one to carve your mark."I listened attentively, sometimes looking up at the giant mountain in the
Those words of Ryan involuntarily gave me a boost. Ignite the fire in me intensely. He was the first to tell me I wasn't different and taught me how to shine.I speak from the bottom of my heart. "Thank you very much."Ryan narrowed his eyes, and his eyes curved into the shape of a crescent moon after a while. I was drawn to his eyes; I saw him when he smiled so gently. "You don't sound like a rumor at all."Ryan's smile faded, and he looked at me seriously. "You are wrong. Those rumors are true. Only because you are my chosen mate makes any difference. There are no other exceptions. The better you think for me, the more disappointed you will be when you know more about me later."I blinked my eyes. "But for me, you're pretty good." I have been looked down upon and bullied since I was a child. Ryan is one of the rare people who treat me with sincerity, even though it also stems from his misperception. One day if he realizes I'm not his destiny, I'll be kicked out of the pack. But that
"She..." Evelyn blushed furiously, but there's no way to say I don't have a wolf, I'm just an average human, and I can't keep up with the speed of a purebred werewolf.Diana despised. "Since when did my brother become so holy? Accepting a trash guy in the pack. Or the quality of werewolves here is getting lower and lower every day. Is your training poor? You alone are incompetent. Enough, don't create trash like you?"With those words of defiance, Evelyn lost her composure. Her eyes turned red, and she turned into a wolf. The first time I saw Evelyn in this form, she was beautiful.Her eyes are red like blood, all her white fur sucks, but her ears are black.Diana scoffed. "Want to fight me? Let me see how much you've improved in the past year."Saying that Diana's body glowed and transformed. She was a jet-black wolf with glowing orange eyes. Compared to Evelyn, Diana's size is slightly larger; her claws are also longer.To my surprise, Diana's wolf resembled the male wolf in my drea
I don't know Ryan’s punishment, but it seems very scary. The crowd around me talked more and more, and I heard people asking each other. “What kind of punishment will that be?”“Will be released into a place arranged with iron walls on all sides with no way to escape. Inside, lions, leopards, tigers, and countless wild wolves will be released into it. Each stage will meet at least one species; after winning, the next door will open. When you complete ten stages, you will be released. But I've never seen anyone come back alive….” The man shuddered.My back was cold; I saw Diana being dragged across the floor; she screamed hoarsely, in great agony.I stared at Ryan as if I needed his confirmation, and he raised his eyebrows as if telling me what I had just heard was true. I couldn't help but tell Ryan. "Don't do that, okay?"“Why beg for her? She just wanted to kill you.” Ryan coldly glanced at me.I was frightened by this indifferent expression of his, and I frowned. "Don't be so cruel
Innocent Max doesn't understand what's going on. “What work? The things in my pack have been handled well for a long time.”“What about monitoring nearby packs and preparing for the upcoming convention?” Ryan asked.Max glanced at Evelyn, finding Ryan very strange today. "It was done a long time ago," Max replied.Evelyn laughed, whispering in my ear. "The better Max does now, the more annoying our Alpha becomes, but he's so stupid, he can't understand Alpha's intentions."I chuckled, too, watching Ryan's pitiful expression.Moments later, he stood up, all his anger pouring out on poor Max. “Follow me for special training.”Evelyn clutched her stomach with a wry smile while waiting for them to leave. "Poor Max, he must have been severely abused by Alpha; I don't know if he will be able to get up tomorrow."I see her happy and feel better; remembering what happened to Evelyn that day makes me sad."Are you ok?" Evelyn circled me. “Alpha was here the whole time you passed out.”I am sur
Excitement welled up in Evelyn's eyes. “That means I still have a chance of winning, right?”I nodded. “Possible. I realize her speed is faster than yours, but her strength is not as good as yours. The two of you are equal opponents; if there is a strategy, it will be a fierce battle and difficult to win or lose."“You are so good, Erza!” Evelyn rushed to hug me; she even kissed my cheek. “I love you to death!”“What are you doing?” Ryan roars, startling me.We turned our heads at the same time, seeing him standing outside, drenched in sweat. As for Max, his clothes were ragged and covered with dirt."I'm sorry, Alpha." Evelyn raised her hands in surrender and slowly backed away, giggling. "There won't be the next time."Ryan glanced coldly at Evelyn, who quickly slipped away.Evelyn was gone, but I could still hear her voice. “You lost so miserably? Did you block any of Alpha's attacks? Or like the previous times, you were tortured and paralyzed?” accompanied by Evelyn's signature la
To prevent bad things from happening again, Ryan forced me to stay in the room to rest until I fully recovered.I refused at first, but even Evelyn agreed with Ryan's decision. And I couldn't resist the two of them; I chose to compromise.Everything was fine for the weekend; I sneaked Ryan and let the training ground find Evelyn in the afternoon. I like the lively atmosphere here more than the boring at home.I didn't go in; I just stood outside and watched Evelyn and Max work on pairing up for everyone to practice.Everyone obeyed orders, but only one person did not.Diana stood above her, arms crossed, cocking her chin proudly. "Who can be my partner here?" She rolled her eyes once, pouting. "Too bad."I could also understand why her attitude was so uncooperative because with Diana's strength, she didn't initially need to come here, but because of the rules, she couldn't go against them. And most of all, I know she's scared of Ryan.Evelyn gritted her teeth. "Then I'll fight with yo
I opened my mouth in surprise. "Does that mean I won't stop until I can attack you?"Ryan nodded. "I think Evelyn also taught you how to attack. Try applying those to me.""Erza, do your best!" I heard Evelyn cheering me on; she smiled excitedly. "Help me get revenge on Alpha, hit him twice, kick his ass, okay?"The corners of my lips twitched helplessly; I think in Black Moon, only Evelyn had challenged Ryan many times and was still alive.“Come with me to the other side.” Ryan went first; I crept behind him.We came to a muddy field, Ryan said with satisfaction. "If you fall here, you won't get hurt."His concern almost touched me for me, but the next second, Ryan coldly ordered. "Begin!"With no other choice, I concentrated on my defense and prepared to attack.But my attacks miss, either because I'm too weak or because I'm too slow. Maybe in Ryan's eyes, I'm just a kitten scratching wildly; he can easily avoid me by just dodging.Towards the evening, when everyone had finished tra
Since that day, Ryan has become overzealous in everything that concerns me. He was always beside me day and night, worried that something would happen to me.But suddenly, in the fourth month of my pregnancy, Ryan disappeared for a day, and instead, Evelyn and Diana came to talk to me to ease my boredom.When I asked, they said Ryan was busy with something but asked more; no one would say.In the evening, Diana and Evelyn took me out, saying that a new restaurant had opened and wanted to go there with me to try it out.From the moment I became pregnant, I became lazy, and under Ryan's extreme care, I rarely went out. This is a rare occasion when I leave the house without Ryan's presence, making me feel a bit absent.My particular driver is Max. "It is an honor to let a Beta be my chauffeur." I joke.Max laughed. "Luna is exaggerating."He had just finished talking when the car also stopped when he was about to get off the car, suddenly Max received a call and hurriedly said. "It's not
Erza's POV:After Kent's death, the internal Blue Forest was as tangled as a pile of cobwebs; because Kent had no children or siblings, the battle for the Alpha position was fierce. With no one willing to give in, the Blue Forest continued civil war and withdrew from the Alliance.Initially, Chad had left the Alliance at first, leaving only Kent and Galvin to support; now that Kent is dead, Galvin, no matter how smart, is not strong enough to resist the powerful forces of Black Moon. n just a short month, Galvin had utterly lost.Galvin is very thoughtful; he knows there is no way to win, so he accepts surrendering to reduce the damage as much as possible. Before being arrested, he also arranged for the next person to become Green Snow's Alpha, so Green Snow's situation is much more stable than Blue Forest's.Even though the Alliance lost, Chad was not spared even though he had been away from it for a while.Chad was found and captured by Roger and Diana in the border area.When I saw
At night, I took the 200 best werewolves into the forest.With Erza's direction, we quickly saw Kent's castle."Erza and I will go inside first; only when you receive my order will you be able to enter," I say."Yes, Sir."Erza and I looked at each other and nodded; we gently went inside to avoid detecting Kent.Erza led me to the place where Erina was being held; in the distance, we heard the sound of fierce fighting."Something must have happened to Erina." Erza is worried."Just keep calm, approach, and see the situation first," I said small.As I approached, I heard Kent scream indignantly. "Whore, I'm going to kill you today; why are you and your sister both so obnoxious? How can you resist my poison? You were supposed to be my puppets; let me control you. And yet that whore Erza broke my control, damn it!"Erina's shrill laugh followed you. "Do you think you can win if you lock me in here? I know I made a mistake when I betrayed Gray; now he must really hate me. If you want to u
Brian's POV:In my sleep, I heard a strange sound like the anguished cry of a wild animal, and I immediately jumped up. In the darkness, a pair of blood-red eyes stared at me, its sharp teeth close to my neck but no further action.I was shocked to realize it was Erza; I reached out to turn on the light and looked at her sourly.Somehow, my Erza is losing control entirely and going insane. Her wolf appearance was also unusual; I wouldn't have recognized her without her scent."Erza, what happened to you?" I tried to talk to her but Erza didn't seem to hear.She turned her head to look at me, drooling. In her blood-red eyes, a small corner still looked at me tenderly. Perhaps Erza was trying to counter her crazy side and protect me while I was still asleep."Erza, can you hear me talking?" I said small.Erza, sitting motionless, suddenly glared, and the gentleness in her eyes also disappeared. She looked at me with utter hatred in her bones; she charged at me madly. I bet my heart coul
Erza's POV:Since my return, Ryan has been very different. He kept staring at me constantly like I would disappear if he left me for a second. At times I feel amused but more than just helpless. Recently Ryan has become overly concerned with me; he stays by my side all day long and doesn't let me leave his attention one bit. Even worse, if he had an urgent need to leave, he would call Diana over to watch over me like a child.I sighed, even though I enjoyed being with him and also understood how much he cared for me. But sometimes I feel stuck; I need some alone time, but that's not allowed.But I don't understand what he is worried about. I just accidentally fell and fainted, nothing too big; why is he so scared?"You really don't remember anything?" Diana asked me curiously."Remember what?" I asked the opposite.Diana frowned. "Where did you end up that morning?"I propped my chin dejectedly. "I explained it many times; I went out to survey and accidentally fell.""Not true; you ta
"Ryan, how are you?" Erza pulled my hand away; looking into her calm eyes made my heart feel lighter, but the fear that hadn't dissipated made my hand tremble."Where have you been?" I asked weakly in a low voice.Erza didn't rush to answer me. Instead, her gaze fell on my hand, and she frowned. "Why are you injured?""It's not important right now, Erza; answer me." I almost screamed at the last sentence, and I'm afraid just a little more I'm worried I'll die.Erza blinked in surprise at my attitude, and she didn't understand what I was saying, she whispered comfortingly. "Do not worry. In the morning, I went to survey the terrain around here, unexpectedly slipped, so I fell, then I lost consciousness; I just woke up just now."I'm selling suspicious news, Erza has no reason to lie to me, but there are a lot of irregularities in this."I'll bandage your wound first." Erza gently pulled my hand into the room and gently disinfected me. "Are you hurt?""No pain." I slowly shook my head;
Ryan POV:I just got back from packing house to track everyone's workout progress. The situation outside the border has recently become tense, so I do not have a moment to rest correctly. And this is a rare moment at the end of the day. I lay down on the bed and started thinking about Erza, and I hadn't seen her in a long time. I sighed and took out my phone, hesitating for a moment, still not knowing whether to call or not. I know her place is also very stressful; maybe she is resting right now; I shouldn't bother her.But I don't know why; I still feel insecure all day today. I was uncomfortable lying on the bed, finally decided to call.I was looking forward to hearing her sweet voice, but all I got in return was a cold, unreachable line.'What the hell is going on? Erza will never turn off her phone because she knows we'll always miss her.' Andrew started to complain, annoyed; for the past few days, he's been urging me to visit Erza, but now, lost contact made him almost insane.'
"Erina, I don't want to hurt you; please stop! I'm Erza, your little sister!" I tried to avoid and recommend it, but it didn't help.When I looked at Kent and Violet, I could see that they were smiling in satisfaction at Erina's frantic expression.Violet clapped her hands excitedly. "Well done, Erina; if you bite her to death, I'll give you more medicine.""What medicine did you give her in the end?" I had difficulty dodging Erina's dangerous attacks.Not only is she bigger, but her strength and speed have also increased a lot compared to before; just dodging makes me so tired that I can't breathe. But Erina is like a fighting machine, and she doesn't get tired or know pain.The only thing she did was bared her sharp iron teeth towards me and charged."A good medicine that I just made, and someone experimented with it, and I immediately gave it to her." Violet stroked her hair; she sat on Kent's lap and leaned against his chest. "Do you think I'm doing well? She can't distinguish any
I finally stopped the car before the castle gate and followed the man leading the way inside. Only now did I understand why it was called a living maze? The terrain inside was highly complicated; no matter how hard I tried to memorize the route, it became useless after the next door was opened. I'm afraid everyone will bury themselves alive inside this massive structure without a map.The man led me to a blue room with three skulls hanging in front of the door, which I judged to be the real thing.I don't know who is unhappy, dead, and can't rest in peace, forced to become a 'decoration' like this."Alpha Kent is waiting for you inside, and he will be happy if you come." The man lowered his head, maintaining a fake smile.I pushed open the door and entered; suddenly, a flash of light followed, followed by a loud explosion of firecrackers.Kent appeared in a suit out of the shadows, but his smile was perverted. "I've been waiting for you for so long, and you know how I can't wait to se
