LEWIS
“After the wind god was imprisoned, the gods and goddesses left the werewolves, the servants of the moon goddess, an order. They said, their souls would hold the soul of the wind god as long as they could. However, the powers of their souls are also finite. One day, they would lose all their strength and inevitably, release the wind god from their chain.”
I listened to every word that Halen was saying and could not help but feel annoyed, especially when I could see the direction where his story was going.
“The words of the deities are something that the royal family could not dare to ignore. So, every century, we would be on a look out to see if there are hints of the return of the wind god. The wind god is someone that would bring disaster to the whole lower realm, so we were always guarded against him. Thankfully, the gods and goddesses left hints of the upcoming doom,” he continued,
LEWISGiven my position and the many extraordinary things I have in my life, my emotions have long been tampered. There were only a few things that could make me happy, and even fewer things that could make me excited. Above all, in the past, there was not a single thing that made me flustered.So, that I was surprised was an understatement when I felt my heart beat faster as I looked at those shy-looking and yet bright eyes that were sneaking side glances at me.‘This…’ I blinked and aimlessly looked in front of me. ‘My heart is beating faster, and I can’t seem to stay calm. Am I feeling flustered?’ I thought to myself.‘Am I feeling this way… because Lia thought I looked cool?’ I felt a warm tingling sensation on my cheeks.‘How is it like this? I was just feeling angry, but just one sentence from her, I am not feeling flustered ins
ADELIAIt has been years since I met my wolf and she told me about our power. Ever since then, I started having visions of the future that were not in the least bright.There would be overwhelming suffering, plenty of deaths, injuries and betrayals that await me and my wolf in my future. So, how could I ever stay calm?From the moment I realized this, I laid down low and I started crafting plans on how to counter what the future holds. Despite my countless effort in racking my brain to formulate plans that would help me survive, admittedly, the plans I crafted might not be the best course of action.‘It’s like playing a game,’ I thought to myself. ‘I always thought that if I had some great teammates, then the plans I crafted could be refined by them and soon my wolf and I will be able to survive everything.’‘This is also the reason why I chose to be with Lewis. Because having
ADELIAMy question was met with silence and it was only after a few seconds that Lewis said, “Even though no one could hear us from the outside, but the others who are also within the barrier could hear us.”“Oh,” I softly exclaimed before looking at the other trees. Although all that I could see were trees and lush leaves, I knew that the warriors from Lewis’ pack were with us and were hiding inside those trees.I nodded in understanding. “I see,” I told him, slightly feeling embarrassed why I did not think of this before. Matters regarding my visions were top secrets that were only between Lewis, I, and the royal family. It was better this way because if it was somehow leaked outside, then it would be disastrous.“Ahem,” suddenly, I heard an old man clearing his throat. “Alpha, please don’t mind us old fogeys. We don’t dare listen to y
LEWIS‘She really does not have a lot of self-awareness,’ I could not help but think as I stared at the small figure beside me.Lia intently looked at the direction where the car would be coming with a serious expression in her face. Subconsciously, she already blocked the teasing of the warriors and focused herself on the mission.‘She is not really aware that I am teasing her on purpose and making herself believe that I have no interest in her.’ I thought to myself. ‘She is really not aware that my eyes have not left her figure from the moment we arrived here.’Lia repeatedly blinked as she saw that car approaching from afar. In her hands was my fruit juice that I have given her before. My eyes narrowed at the straw that she would occasionally sip from every now and then. ‘Hmmm. An indirect kiss, huh?’ The corners of my lips started tilting.From
LEWIS‘This girl is really…’ I thought before letting out a chuckle.“I have to finish this fast,” I softly spoke before moving. Although the amusing woman seemingly had complete trust in me, deep inside me, it seemed that I could not bear to let her wait inside of the barrier for a long time.In this mystical world where all kinds of powers could be seen, I am confident that in terms of stealth movement, I am unapparelled. In a split second, I have already travelled tens of kilometers to where the rampaging prince was. Lady Regina, on the other hand, was standing a couple of feet away from Halen as she channeled the power of her own wolf to stabilize Halen’s power. Upon the order of Lady Regina, the royal warriors stood a considerable distance away but did not leave the premises as they looked worriedly at the siblings.The members of the Silver Wolves Pack were al
ADELIAFrom my uneventful life that was only filled with planning, so many things have occurred for the first day that I met Lewis.First was our agreement. Then, him marking me and bringing me back to the Pack of Talascar. Meeting the prince and the princess of the werewolves, and Alphonse. And finally, trying to stop the assassination attempt towards the Lady Regina.Although I was not sure of what happened during the fight since I was inside Lewis’ barrier and could not see and hear anything, I could deduct what happened just from glancing at the aftereffects of the battle.Prince Halen looked rough and was unconscious. Lady Regina who was previously filled with energy was now looking pale, and many royal warriors were injured. The nearby trees and other plantations were destroyed.Even the warrior near us fell from the tree, probably also from exhaustion.So, when Lewis told me he was
ADELIAThere were things that transcend beauty.The laughter of an innocent child, a dream that was realized.A great love that was fulfilled.These were the things that everyone sought after, but not everyone could reach.And when you gave up everything to attain it, but it was still beyond your reach, a certain feeling would reside in your chest.That was, the feeling of being incomplete.I blinked at the crowd surrounding me. All of them were tough and strong, the cream of the crop of the Pack of Emoresi, one of the greatest packs in the werewolf world. It has been years, and I already became accustomed to their presence, and their blatant disregard towards me.It’s alright,' I thought to myself. 'At least now, they are just disregarding me and are not actively hostile to me anymore.''Regardless, everything is not important… as long as I can be with h
LEWIS“Alpha, elders from the Silverwood Pack are begging for an audience-“I lifted a hand to stop Simon, my gamma, from talking.‘Be quiet,’ I said through a mind-link. Simon, who was at the receiving end of my statement, visibly flinched as if he just received a huge surprise.I lifted a brow at him but did not call his rude behavior. I could not blame him. Afterall, in my pack, it is a well-known matter that I hated being connected to another through a mind-link. And unless absolutely necessary, I would never converse to another in this way.‘However right now, it’s necessary,’ I thought as I looked at Lia’s peaceful sleeping face. It had been a few hours, yet she was still sleeping so deeply.“Uhm… alpha…” Simon said very softly. “Those elders… they are begging on their knees and are causing a ruckus&hel
