“What's your name?”

The man stared at the figure in front of him with a complicated look. Since he was caught, no one has ever asked his name again. The man almost forgot the name his parents gave him, if he didn't keep scratching the walls of his cell with his finger every time he felt, he would forget his name.

“Ullric.”

The figure in front of him immediately looked surprised when he heard the ancient name. The use of ancient names disappeared decades ago. Seeing the figure of a man who still looked like he was in his thirties with an ancient name made the figure a little pensive.

“All right, Ullric. My business is done here. I'll leave the door open. Now, you can choose to leave or stay here.”

Ullric laughed, he felt the man's words were the best joke of all time. Out of all the reactions Ullric had hoped for, the man had never thought that the figure would just let him go. His golden eyes darkened, as he spoke while slightly growling at the figure.

“I've killed your pack members. After hearing that, don't you want to kill me? My legs are bound by a special spell, so I can't bring out my power even if I wanted to. This is a good chance for you to kill me.”

Ullric didn't know whether it was just his feelings or not, but he saw the figure's gaze soften slightly after hearing his words. The figure injured his hand casually, before dripping his blood on the chains that bound Ullric's legs.

“ … My mate always said that not all violence must be repaid with violence. After all, the capture of my pack members was due to my negligence. I am an Alpha. It is my duty to protect my pack.”

Ullric no longer commented when he heard the figure's words. Seeing that figure reminded Ullric of himself. How he always blamed himself for what happened to his pack.

Ullric's attention was distracted when he heard the sound of chains breaking from his feet. The man was no longer speechless when he saw the chain covered in a powerful spell completely shattered after being dripped with the mysterious figure's blood.

Only after the chains limiting his strength disappeared did a surge of power fill Ullric's body, which had weakened a lot over the past few years. Even if Ullric didn't live well during his stay in that place, the power emanating from the man's body still made the mysterious figure who saved him pause in awe. Now all his doubts have been answered. Ullric is truly one of the surviving Alphas of the old generation.

“I will go now.”

After finishing his business, the mysterious figure immediately left by jumping towards the exit. Seeing that his savior was about to leave, Ulric also jumped up in pursuit of the figure. Ullric was pensive for some time, as he could hardly believe there would be a day when he would finally be free again.

When Ullric looked around, the man was no longer surprised when the first sight that greeted him was the corpses of the hunters strewn everywhere. The cells used to confine other creatures have also been opened, while several wolves who may be part of the mysterious figure's pack look surprised when they see Ullric's Alpha pheromones.

“Wait a moment.”

When Ullric saw the mysterious figure who saved him was about to leave, the man immediately spoke to stop the figure's movement. After his strength returned, Ullric could already tell that none of his pack members were still alive in that place. Anger took over Ullric's body, as he continued his speech in a muffled voice.

“Is … The hunters have been annihilated?”

The mysterious figure turned and shook his head slowly. “Fighting them all is impossible, even for us. We're just keeping them from descending to the first floor, and killing those who are underground. We'll be retreating soon after this,” said the figure. Unexpectedly, Ullric actually smiled after he heard that answer. His golden eyes shone brightly, as he rushed toward the stairs that would lead him up.

“You will die if you go alone.”

Ullric's steps came to a halt when he heard the warning given by the figure. Ullric turned to stare at the figure's face. The young Alpha looks quite promising. If Ullric could, the man wished he could follow the Alpha to witness his future developments.

“What's your name, Alpha?”

The figure also looked up to look at Ullric, before answering the question in a confident voice.

“Stefan. Stefan Norah Silver from the Silver Pack.”

Ullric nodded in satisfaction after hearing that answer. “I'll remember you, Stefan Norah Silver,” whispered Ullric before leaving to avenge his pack.

***

After Stefan's group left the castle that imprisoned Ullric, another group arrived at the place. The leader was a beautiful woman, who immediately frowned when she saw the massacre taking place in her castle.

Without waiting for the others to check on the situation, the woman had already visited the cell that had been used to imprison Ullric. Her pretty face was immediately filled with anger when she saw the cell was open while Ullric was nowhere to be found.

“Master, the massacre upstairs seems to have been carried out by that wolf. We found-”

One of the hunters who wanted to report did not have time to continue his words as the woman strangled him violently. The hunter had just chosen the wrong time to annoy his master. The woman looked at him with bloodshot eyes, before whispering in an emphatic tone.

“Look for him right now. Even if you have to mess with this world, I want you to find him and report his whereabouts to me.”

When the woman saw that the hunter was about to die in her hands, she immediately loosened her grip and let the hunter fall and cough loudly on the cold ground. Her eyes stared coldly as the hunter struggled to kneel and accept her order before the hunter hurried away from her.

When all that was visible was the woman remaining in the place, someone could appear from her shadow. A living woman with chains binding her hands and feet immediately knelt when her master called out. The bound woman lowered her head, not saying anything at all as she waited for the orders to be given by her master.

“Ullric has escaped.”

Only when her master mentioned Ullric's name did the bound woman look slightly surprised. The bound woman subconsciously lifted her head, only to see the woman who was her master staring at her with an evil smile.

“Find him for me, Erika. Bring him to me again, and you will be with him forever.”

The woman who was Erika's master lowered her head to kiss her slave's forehead gently. Her cold smile didn't disappear immediately, as she whispered one last thing to her poor slave.

“Prove to me that you do love him, Erika.”

    Ullric's golden eyes stared coldly at the skyscraper in front of him. Ignoring the strange stares from the people around him, Ullric stepped forward confidently toward his destination. The man only stopped walking when the attention of the people inside the large building turned to him as he entered. His gaze was as dark as the night sky, and he was blocked before he could ascend to a higher level.“Who are you? What business do you have with this place?”Ullric looked at the well-dressed man who came forward to confront him. Judging from the reactions of the other werewolves when the man arrived, Ullric could tell that the man was someone with a high position in the group. Ullric stared at him for a long time, before he revealed the reason for his arrival in a low voice.“I came for your Alpha.”Esben, Beta of the Silver Pack couldn't control his fear when he heard the low voice of the Alpha in front of him. His Alpha is the strongest Alpha Esben has ever met. But in terms of strengt

    That situation continued until Ullric suddenly turned his head towards the entrance. His golden pupils shrank, as he stared at the girl, who had just entered the tall building. "I'm home! Uh, where did everyone go?"While ignoring the young werewolves assigned to watch over him, Ullric quickly approached the girl in messy clothes. His hand quickly grasped the girl's hand, before he whispered in a low voice. "Mate ...."Lulla stared at the strange man, who had just taken her hand. On her beautiful face, a frown slowly formed indicating that she did not like Ullric's actions. The girl dropped the bag that was in her hand before she set up a stance to take down the big man. Before the others could give any warning, Lulla had managed to knock Ullric to the floor. Perhaps because Ullric had unknowingly let his guard down in front of his mate, the man did not resist at all as his body collapsed to the floor unceremoniously. The other werewolves could only open their mouths without saying

    After riding the elevator, Stefan took Ullric to his office on the top floor of the building. Along the way, Ullric, who seemed clueless about many things, came into Stefan's view. Seeing the caution Ullric showed towards things that should be common in modern times made Stefan finally convinced that Ullric was indeed an ancient werewolf. The man was completely unfamiliar with technology, and was not accustomed to hiding his werewolf eyes from ordinary humans. "Sit where you're comfortable, Ullric," Stefan told him. Ullric finally chose to sit on one of the couches, while Stefan sat opposite him. The two were silent for a few moments, before Stefan finally relayed the results of their previous pack discussion. "First of all, can I ask you a few questions?"Ullric nodded confidently. If he wanted to be allowed to be in the same pack as his mate, of course he had to show his sincerity in front of Stefan. "You're an Alpha, aren't you? What happened to you, that you could be in that pl

    After Ullric finished speaking with Stefan, the man quickly exited the alpha's room. Near the door, Ullric could see that someone was waiting for him outside the room. It was the same person who had stopped him at the front door. Esben, the Beta of the Silver Pack, had been waiting for Ullric since earlier to show him around. Seeing that the new pack member had finished talking to Stefan, the beta immediately approached Ullric. Esben smiled kindly, as he extended his hand to shake Ullric's. "Nice to meet you, Ullric. My name is Esben, a beta in this pack. If Alpha is busy, you can come to see me to discuss anything," Esben told him. "Alpha has explained the situation to us. Please forgive us for being wary of you before." Ullric was speechless because, in the past, no one had been brave enough to ask him to shake hands. But, in this new pack, Ullric's position was not part of the pack's core. Ullric slowly accepted the handshake, then introduced himself properly this time. "Ullric

    "You must be a new werewolf entering this pack." Unlike Esben who was immediately friendly to Ullric, the werewolf who held the position of Gamma in the Silver Pack clearly showed his dislike for Ullric when he spoke to the man. The man with a large body looked at Ullric with a gaze full of hostility and consciously stood in front of Lulla to block Ullric's view of his mate. "Even though you're a new member of this pack, you seem to be bold enough to interrupt our training time. New man, do you have a problem with the training methods I teach the members of this pack?" If Ullric was willing to pay attention to the surrounding area, it was indeed not only Lulla who was injured in the martial arts training in that place. Some female werewolves had also been injured, but no one had protested like Ullric did at this point. Ullric's actions made Lulla feel ashamed for the second time. She was the most powerful pack warrior among children her age. Being treated like a fragile girl made h

    "Alright. For the last one, this is your room from now on. This room has a closet, bed, and private bathroom. So, you are free to use it alone. As for clothes, you can wear the ones you have before someone takes you shopping later. We usually eat at 7 am, 1 pm, and 8 pm. Try to be on time, as our Alpha doesn't like people who aren't on time. Then ... Ah, yes. In addition to pack duties, Alpha usually assigns us other jobs as humans. You'll probably find out about his decision tomorrow. So for now, you can rest first." While listening to Esben's explanation, Ullric observed his new room with a curious look. In addition to the tall buildings that had never existed before, Ullric realized that the equipment used was also much different from his own time. Ullric had just learned how to use an elevator. But now, he also had to learn how to utilize his room. Everything felt so new to Ullric. But for the sake of being with his mate, Ullric did not mind learning these new things. From anoth

    The sound of splashing water filled the silence in Ullric's room. When the sound of water and the door opened again, water vapor came out of the bathroom. From inside, Ullric came out with a towel covering his private parts. The man let out a long sigh as he realized that even bathing had become confusing in this new age. In his day, Ullric had never bathed from a strange device that dripped water like rain. Not only was it like rain, but the water also felt so warm that it made his body comfortable. In his entire life, Ullric had never felt that bathing was a very pleasant thing. After Ullric took off his old clothes that he had originally taken from the hunters, the man opened the new wardrobe given to him. His brows unconsciously furrowed slightly as he looked at the models of clothing that he was not used to wearing. In the end, Ullric chose a black shirt and pants that had the closest appearance to his old clothes. The man put on his clothes without much trouble. His eyes invo

    Thanks to his excellent sense of smell, it didn't take Ullric long before he found his dead man's private room. With a first aid box in his hand, Ullric stood in front of Lulla's door. The man was trying to figure out how he could get Lulla to let him in after their encounters had always ended in failure before. Just as Ullric finally mustered the will to knock on the door of his mate, the door suddenly opened from the inside. The figure of Lulla, who had just finished bathing, came out from inside. Just like Ullric, her face looked surprised when the girl saw Ullric standing in front of her bedroom door. Lulla had just finished putting on her clothes when she suddenly felt the need to open the door to her room. It was an unfamiliar feeling that she had never felt before. But, in the end, Lulla opened the door anyway and faced Ullric directly. All forms of unrest and discomfort immediately disappeared when Lulla inhaled the strange scent emanating from Ullric's body.

    "Miss Sol, regarding the agreement previously approved by Alpha... The company will be holding a shareholders' meeting in three days. Since Alpha and Luna seem to be extending their vacation, should I arrange a schedule for you to come to the meeting in their place?" Sol rubbed her face roughly every time Tiki reported the list of events she had to complete since Ullric had decided to extend their vacation. The unexpected event happened because Karin, who had been brought to a private island for the first time, refused to go home, so Ullric and Lulla were forced to comply. Actually, in ordinary situations, Sol was more than happy to be of use to her alphas' family. Moreover, in this case, the extended vacation meant that Karin would be happy even longer. But the problem here is that someone is disturbing her peace in the organization now. That person was not ashamed to keep showing his face in front of Sol, even if Sol had driven her away a thousand times. "You can arrange the sched

    "If I wanted to reject you, I would have done so from the start, Frans. I won't reject you, but I won't let this relationship limit my devotion to Alpha." Frans let out a long sigh as he recalled Sol's words again. To contain his surging anger at that moment, Frans chose to go out and avoid Sol from then on. Frans didn't even want to tag along when Sol returned to the Red Moon Pack with Ullric. Frans knew he was disappointed in Sol at that time. But more than his disappointment, Frans was saddened that Sol didn't consider their relationship important at all. Frans didn't want to look so pathetic in front of Sol, who didn't care about his feelings at all. Instead of him, Sol should be more worried about her life not being tied to a mate. A modern werewolf like Frans could still live even if he did not share a bond with his mate. But Sol, there was no telling how long the woman could endure her stubbornness. Frans was so lost in his reverie that he didn't realize that someone had ent

    "Ullric!"Ullric had just returned from his work when Lulla ran to hug him. The man saw that his mate had something to say to him. But when her eyes glanced at Sol, who had come in with him, Lulla froze instantly.For a moment, Ullric immediately thought that there was urgent news that Lulla wanted to tell him. The man kissed Lulla's head gently, then softly asked his mate a question."What's going on, hm?"Upon hearing her mate's question, Lulla immediately released her embrace and then looked at Ullric expectantly. Lulla couldn't say anything because Sol was standing behind Ullric. The woman tried to make excuses and ended up holding her husband's hand solemnly."Karin is studying with her tutor. So ... So, since you're home earlier than usual, can you spend some time with me in our room?"'Ullric, I want to talk to you alone. However, can Sol not know what we are talking about?'Sol only heard that Lulla seemed to be trying to flirt with Ullric. However, what the woman didn't know

    "What is Sol's current condition, Frans?" "She seems to be fine. At first, I didn't believe her regeneration ability could really heal all the wounds she received in one day. But as you can see ... She is indeed fine after resting for a whole day." "Alright. Thank you for your help, Frans." Sol was only fully awake when she heard Ullric's last sentence. When Sol closed her eyes, the woman recalled her first encounter with Ullric, which made Sol feel she did not want to wake up quickly. It was the memory that Sol cherished the most in her life. Being able to see the young Ullric once again was a golden opportunity that Sol would never want to miss. "Ah, how are you feeling, Sol?" As soon as Ullric sensed that Sol had woken up from her sleep, the man immediately stopped talking to Frans and turned to look at Sol's condition. "I'm fine, Alpha. You don't have to worry about me." After getting enough rest, Sol no longer felt any discomfort in her body. The woman managed to sit up wi

    Sol's first meeting with Ullric was one of the most memorable times in the woman's memory. Sol was ten years old when she was finally allowed to meet Ullric, who was only five years old at the time. Sol recalled that one day, her father suddenly asked her to come along to meet Ullric after the future alpha complained that he needed a friend in his life. As the first child of a family that served purebloods for hundreds of years, Sol was eventually chosen to meet Ullric and become his first friend. Before meeting Ullric, Sol was required to take a week-long manners lesson at the time. The people in her family dressed Sol up nicely on the day of their meeting. They repeatedly warned Sol to behave. Meeting Ullric was not a luxury that everyone could afford. On the day of their meeting, Sol was taken by her father to the largest building in the pack. As a beta, the other pack members bowed as Sol's father passed by with his daughter. Sol swallowed nervously as she arrived at the last do

    "What happened to him? Why are her wounds this bad?" At first glance, Frans could already see that Sol had several broken bones and horrible lacerations. This was the first time Frans had seen Sol injured to this extent. Even when they were fighting Jane, Frans remembered that Sol's wounds healed so quickly, and her condition wasn't as life-threatening as it was now. Remembering that made Frans realize that right now, Sol had just encountered a greater danger than Jane's attack. The doctor's brow involuntarily furrowed. He never liked it when he had to see Sol in this injured state. "We were on a mission when she was hit by a bomb at close range. Normally, Miss Sol would go to a safe house to heal for a few days. But this time, for some reason, Miss Sol asked us to bring her here." Frans' eyes looked complicated after he heard Atla's explanation. Frans' hand moved to rub Sol's hand with a light gesture. Although this was the first time Frans had seen Sol in such a fragile state, h

    The loud explosion that occurred inside the building startled all the Red Moon Pack members, who were assigned to guard elsewhere. Without waiting for a signal, each of them immediately ran to go to the place where the explosion occurred. Everyone's faces were covered with worry, especially when they could sense that Sol and Sigur were in the place where the explosion occurred. "Miss Sol! Sigur!" The others began to call out in a worried tone as they saw that the place where the explosion occurred had been completely destroyed. Although the ancient werewolves could channel their natural power as a shield that could not be penetrated by anything, they could still be injured or even die if the shield got damaged or they did not have time to put up the shield before the explosion happened. The men began to work together to remove the debris scattered about the place. In their hearts, they could only hope that Sol and Sigur were as safe as ever. "We're here!" Everyone immediately turn
