CHAPTER 41TO SEEK REVENGE“You talk as if you feel no remorse for what they did to Jordan. As if you’re content with his disappearance. Just like before, so you could resume your alcohol-fueled habits.”“Out of all people, you know how much I loved Jordan.” She was on the verge of tears, but she held them back. “Don’t twist my words, Patricia. You won’t appreciate the consequences.” She took a breath. “The cycle of killing is endless. Have you ever considered why the alpha targeted Jordan and, I’m quite certain, went after the other hunters?” She spoke, and Patricia listened. “They killed the alpha’s parents. Remember the night they returned home to celebrate their victory? I’m willing to bet the current alpha witnessed it all, likely growing stronger in just two years to exact revenge. If the killing doesn’t stop now, many lives will be lost.”“I am indifferent to the number of lives lost. My sole concern is ridding the world of the wretch who took my brother’s life.” She directed h
CHAPTER 42A PAIN IN THE ASS“You are a moron. I am not like the other wolves. I already made it clear that I do not follow rules. I act on impulse, so if I want to transform into my form, I will. However, I am trying to be gentle because doing so before the full moon may be harmful to you.”“Wow. I had no idea you were so concerned about me.”“I do not give a damn about you. I am only interested in your body. They are important to me.” Selena sat down on her bed and reached for her phone. As she unlocked it, she heard a beep and messages appeared. “Selena has returned.” Dalett had posted it in their private group chat called STD. They had given themselves that name in sixth grade, and it had stuck with them ever since. People used to say STD to summon the three of them, and they will arrive immediately. “Seriously,” Selena retorted. Trisha remained silent despite being online. “Is she still upset with me?” “Yes. It appears to be so.” Dalett stated. “And where did she get the mon
CHAPTER 43MOM IS A DISAPPOINTMENT When her phone rang, she considered the possibility of a recipient. Since Jordan’s funeral, no one has called her. Her only friends were Dalett and Trisha’s mothers. The wives of her husband’s hunting buddies. They had also kept their secret from their children. When she went to retrieve her phone from the bed, she was surprised to see her father-in-law’s name illuminated from her phone. Why would he call, she wondered? “Good morning, father,” Isabel said as she took the phone call.“You should pay a visit to the organization. You are needed.” “What? Please forgive me, Father. I am unable to visit. I have an appointment at Selena’s school.” “Isabel, this is critical. Selena is not going to mind. You have let her down before, too. This is not the first time.” He ended the call abruptly. Isabel took a seat on the bed and considered it. She could not take the chance of her daughter hating her again. * * * * * * * * * * * * *Selena went to her loc
CHAPTER 44BACK HAS AN HUNTER Isabel sighed as her gaze returned to the house in front of her. Because there were so many cars parked next to each other, she correctly assumed she was not the only one her father-in-law had called. She began to wonder why he would want to meet her. He has not even shown her any affection since she turned down the job. She was well aware of his hatred for her. As she stepped out of the car, her gaze returned to the house. She has not worn heels in over 24 years. The moment she discovered she was pregnant with Hania. Approaching the house, she walked confidently up to the house in her 9-inch heels. She felt completely transformed, ready to never accept nonsense from her family again. One thing she learned from Selena’s hatred for her was to always defend herself when someone is trying to bully you. Selena had taught her that without her even realizing it. She had let Jordan’s family speak to her for years, and she had said nothing - until today. She wo
CHAPTER 45THE WELCOME RITUAL Jordan gave her consolation and helped her become stronger. She had to take a break from her career after learning she was pregnant the following year. She learned that another child was on the way when she was heading back to her job after a four-year break. This broke her heart because she has grown to value her job as a hunter. She can still see the werewolf’s claw mark on her stomach, and it reminds her every time she takes a shower. So how can she keep herself from becoming addicted to alcohol? Nothing was particularly going well for her. While Jordan was always going on missions, she was supposed to be the one going on them, but she had to stay behind and take care of her kids. “I have liked Hania since I heard about her reaction from Jordan after he told me she found out about what we do. She is a warrior, so I believe it would be best to give her Jordan’s post if you do not want it.” “She is too young,” Isabel said. “She is twenty-three. You
CHAPTER 46ISABEL IS A WHORE Isabel scoffed, turning her head away to catch her breath. She returned her gaze to Ferdinand. Hiding her true feelings of rage toward the holy water. “I am afraid I can not stay here right now. Is it okay for me to leave, or do I have to stay until the party is over?”“I am not sure why you are in such a hurry. These are your family members.” “Father-in-law, they hate me. You despise me. You and they have never once accepted me into your family. They were all done with the intention of making Jordan happy, and now that he is gone, all you want is for me to stay here and fulfill his obligations? I am not interested in this. I am aware that my opinions are invalid, but...” With one hand she clutched her purse, the other controlled her temper. “I ask that you please excuse me.” She hurried past Ferdinand after he made room for her. Isabel discovered an empty table on her way out and set her wine glass down there. She went over to her car, opened it in hur
CHAPTER 47LET’S PLAN TO CATCH ISABEL“I can not believe he told me lies.” Men should not be trusted. They are dishonest. Still in shock, Dalett remarked.“Guys, calm down. Perhaps they are not actually going out?” “They are sharing a plate of cake between them. Couples are the only ones who do that.” stated Selena. She looked over at Dalett. “We need to solve this mystery, without telling your mother.” “It is ridiculous that you forced us to leave without publicly humiliating them.” When they entered her vehicle, Selena yelled. They had left the ice house without being noticed by Isabel or Daniel. Dalett let out a sigh. “I am shocked that he lied to me.”“When will you two get over this already?” Trisha gently tapped the box compartment with her hand. “It is because your parents are not in that situation,” Dalett and Selena both said as they turned to face her. They looked at each other again and then sighed again.“Whoa. You two are even on the same wavelength when it comes to s
CHAPTER 48SELENA’S FIRST MIND-LINK They had both laughed at the internet meme and at old I*******m posts that brought back memories. It was the first time they would spent time together. Selena used to be the type of girl who preferred to lock the door and only let her friends in. Her entire family, with the exception of her father, was off limits. She wondered now if things would have turned out differently if she had felt the same way about them as she did about her father. They would have found healing together through all of these difficult times. She might have understood her mother if she had asked why she turned to alcohol. Things would not have been as difficult if she had let her sisters inside. She would also tell them about the fictional world they had seen on television. About how genuine they were.“Are you thrilled?” Estry inquired on her way out of the restroom. “A tiny bit.” She walked over to the bed, dried herself off, and changed into her nightgown. When she clos
CHAPTER 170OH! IT WASN’T A DREAM?“Selena, it’s too late. It’s already getting to my heart. There’s no way I’m going to get through this.”“Stop talking.” Selena sobbed as she struggled to hold Titus in her arms. As they approached the mansion, it was already ablaze. Titus didn’t have the energy to rush inside and save anyone. His brother and the other werewolves were inside, and he could sense their agony. The pain was too much for him to bear, so he shut his eyes right there. “Titus, Titus, Titus!” Selena yelled. “Stay with me. I will save you, okay?” There was no more response, and his body had become completely cold.“Titus. You can’t die now.” She placed him on the ground. “I know you’re hearing me, and you won’t die. I’ll save you. Okay? I’ll heal you.” She held his hand and stared up at the sky. There was no way she could save him. Everything will be over if she shows up too late. Selena started crying, but stopped abruptly when she remembered something. She gasped. “The Red W
CHAPTER 169DECISION BETWEEN FAMILY AND THE PACK “I can’t believe he is been your cousin this entire time. I was curious when he told me his surname, but then he told me some stories about it that made me feel sorry for him. I am sorry I didn’t tell you about Easton.” Selena said. She and Titus talked until morning arrived. He had consoled her and made her feel better the night before, but Selena and Titus still couldn’t believe Tyler had gone. It was just like losing her father. He was gone forever, never to be seen or heard from again. “You’re not to blame. He purposefully approached you. He knew who you were all along and approached you, but he could not turn your mind against us.”“What do you think caused him to do what he did?” “I’m not sure, but I’ve been searching for him for months. He mentioned something about telling me who was on my death-bead. He desperately wanted me to die. Actually, we all assumed he had died. When we were younger, there was this story that circulat
CHAPTER 168THE FORGOTTEN COUSIN “Luna, where have you been?” One of them asked. Her voice was trembling. Selena was confused. She closed the door behind herself as she approached them. “What exactly happened?” “This is what happens when you have a half-breed Luna,” another person commented.“You mean turned?” The first one spoke rudely. She returned her gaze to Selena. “Darkness has fallen over us since you joined our pack. Uncle Theodore died; our pack was attacked, and...” She paused. The words couldn’t leave her mouth. Selena was waiting, but her hand was in hers. When she looked down, she saw Dylan. “Don’t mind them, sister-in-law.” Dylan smiled. “You aren’t to blame. They are simply attempting to direct their anger and blame at someone. If you’re looking for my brother, he is in the graveyard. “He has been there for hours.” “Graveyard? What do you mean?”“You should go and meet him. He’s going to explain everything to you. As you can see, this room is already full of werewo
CHAPTER 167SECRETS FINALLY REVEALED ...your granddaughter is among us. A werewolf.” Patricia began to laugh. “You’re looking for a way out of this. Don’t mind her, father. She is talking nonsense.” “Am I?” Max laughed again. “Here’s an even more shocking story. She is our Luna. Our pack’s female leader. I’m sure you are wondering how this happened. On the night of the red moon, the Alpha bit her and made her one of us. “He’s even married to her right now.” “Nonsense!” Ferdinand yelled in anger. “Believe me; I bet your daughter-in-law knows as well. Selena’s sister was among those involved. They’re doing everything they can to ensure her safety. Even from you, Ferdinand.” “That’s enough!” Ferdinand furrowed his brow. “Get her out of here and make her suffer,” he instructed the two men who approached her.“Get your filthy hands off me!” Max yelled as the two big men grabbed her. She tried to transform, but a sleeping mask was placed over her face, and she immediately fell asleep.
CHAPER 166PINKY SWEAR BEFORE I DIE “You’re making me angry right now.” Ansel spoke as he sprinted towards Titus. Titus has never seen a wolf run that fast. Ansel jumped immediately, his claws long and sharp. Titus raised one leg to protect himself, but then he heard a low groan. He moved his leg away from his face and noticed Tyler in front of him. Tyler fell instantly, and Titus caught him before he hit the ground. Tyler’s mouth dripped with blood as he gradually reverted to human form. Titus focused his gaze on him. He called “Tyler.” As Tyler attempted to talk, more blood gushed out of his mouth. “Shh. Don’t say anything.” Titus examined the wound that Ansel had caused, which was quite deep. “Why are you not healing?” “He cannot. He is already as good as dead.” Ansel began laughing. He showed Titus a rib that he had broken from Tyler’s. “He is incomplete without this. He will die, Alpha, and I will return to finish you.” Ansel started laughing wickedly as he walked away with th
CHAPTER 165MY NAME IS ANSEL AND I’M 10 TIMES STRONGER Titus began to laugh. “How convenient for you all to believe the Alpha would lay down and give you his head without a fight.” Max took a deep breath before starting her car. She hasn’t heard from her brother in days. Reaching him through a mindlink was also impossible. It had never happened before, and it bothered her. She started her car and drove away from the school. As she drove, she was overcome with mourning over Uncle Theodore’s death. The fact that he had abandoned them was still unbelievable. Max came to a halt when she saw two cars in the distance blocking her path. She turned off her engine and looked forward. She saw a slim, tall woman and two men approach her. Max waited in her car for a while to see if they were actually coming towards her. “Your name must be Max. The pale sister of Alexander Terry,” said the woman, smiling. Max was inquisitive. “And who are you? How do you know my name?” “My name is Patricia,
CHAPTER 164WE’RE UNDER ATTACK “It was unbelievable.” Tyler sighed. “I will talk to him, Luna. You don’t need to worry. Titus isn’t such a person like that. I know him well; I will talk to him, and you two will be fine in no time. Right now, I’m on my way to his house. I will make sure he speaks with you.” Tyler hung up the phone and put it in his pocket. He felt a sensation when he put his hand on the doorknob. He opened the door, and his jaw dropped open. Tyler walked inside and slowly closed the door behind him. Standing in the doorway, he noticed several girls in bikinis walking around. Some people were carrying bottles of wine as they passed by. One person was seen dancing to the music while not wearing a bra or shorts. Entirely naked. “Titus?” In his search for his friend, he passed by those girls. “Hello, handsome. Come have some fun with us!” One of the girls commented as she rubbed her hands all over him. “Absolutely not!” Tyler said as she dashed towards the stairwell. L
CHAPTER 163I, TITUS THE ALPHA REJECT YOU SELENA “You should leave here, Selena.” Titus stood up. “I think you should go.”“Well. I won’t leave until you tell me what is wrong with you. Titus, you need me.” Titus began to laugh. “Do I need you?” He just shook his head. The last thing he needs is a murderer’s daughter. The daughter of the murderer of his parents. And the last thing she needs is the man who stole her father away from him. She isn’t at fault, but he still can’t be with her unless he bears a great deal of guilt. Titus turned his back to her. “Leave while I’m still being very nice to you.” “Titus. Is this some sort of prank? Because if it is, I don’t think I’ll enjoy this game as much.” Selena approached him. “Titus. What’s going on?” She took his hands and placed them against her face. “Do you love me? You expressed your love for me, and I reciprocated. Didn’t we say forever? We got married, right?” Titus worked hard to keep the tears at bay. He was in pain, but he re
CHAPTER 162A PICNIC “I was surprised when she told my sister she would return early.” Selena left his side and went back to her closet. “What are your thoughts on this one?” “But it is pretty thin. There’s a lot of cold outside.” “You, Selena, are a werewolf. You don’t feel cold. Come on, if you need fur, I can cover you with mine.” Selena blushed as she grabbed the top from him. “You’re so good with words.” She wore the top and retrieved her trousers from the bed. Selena was ready in no time. When she had finished, she turned to face Titus. “Let’s get the fuck outta here,” she exclaimed. They started their walk right into the woods. When Selena suggested taking the car, Titus declined. He wanted to spend the remaining hours holding her hand and keeping her close to him. They chuckled their way to the nearest tree, holding hands. Selena was astounded by what she was seeing. She came to a stop and looked at him. “No, you didn’t.” She was stunned. Titus nodded. “I hoped to see a
