CHAPTER 63THE TRUE CULPRIT IN JORDAN’S DEMISE “I understand perfectly. You should take your time. Titus is going to understand as well. He will understand now that you have explained why you haven’t shown. He moved a few inches away from her. “Get home safely.” Selena had some questions. Tyler appears braver as she looks at him more. “So, tell me. What is your position in this pack? As I have said before, you seem different and have a positive aura about you.”“I am a gamma. We defend the pack’s lives with the alpha. Alpha is a good person. He can be difficult at times, but he has a good heart.” She has her doubts. Of course, Tyler will say that about him. He is their leader, so what did she expect? “You should get to know the real Titus.” Selena nodded with a smile. It is unlikely she will, but Tyler appears to be a decent man, and if she does, she will want to be friends with him. “Bye for now.” She waved to him as she shut the door to her car. When Selena looked in her side mir
CHAPTER 64SHE MADE UP HER MIND Jade gave her a sidelong glance. “I don’t hate you, despite how cruel you are. You will realize one day that you need my presence in your life.” She returned her attention to her meal and remained silent. Selena inhaled while concentrating on her empty plate. As she took her seat, she looked at her mother. Isabel handed her a plate of rice. Selena took it and began to eat. She had not eaten lunch or dinner and had awoken hungry. Isabel kept staring at her, and Selena could feel her attention on her. She raised her head at her mother. “Ask what is on your mind,” she said, before returning her attention to her meal. “Are you alright?”Selena fixed her gaze on her. “Why?”“You were soaked when you got home yesterday, are you okay?”“I’m alright, mom.”“Hmmm... Have a good day at school today. Make sure you read for your exam next week. I mean, do not over-read, but do your best.”Selena took a breather, paused, and then resumed eating. She had no chan
CHAPTER 65LET’S TALK“Look. Titus. I agreed to become one of you because I needed a break from my human life. You are well aware that I do not get along with my family, so all I want is a break.” “Just learn more about us. I will teach you everything you need to know about my kinds, but please keep in mind that your subsequent transformations will be more difficult than the first.”Selena gave him a startled look. “What?”“Because you were not born a wolf, it will not be easy. However, Selena, things will become easier as time passes. During your second month of transformation, you will have blood lust and attempt to kill.” “What?” When she yelled this time, she noticed eyes glaring in their direction. “What exactly do you mean, kill?” She spoke in hushed tones, leaning in. “I am still stunned that your wolf knows what she is up to. When a turned wolf first appears, they usually cause havoc. You would have heard about the deaths of several people on the news.” Selena remembered t
CHAPTER 66I WILL FIND YOU Selena shut the door behind her as she went into her room. She knows the day was going to be dreary and boring. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *Detective Saul’s weary eyes were fixed on the screen, his impatience growing as the scanner struggled to reveal the secrets hidden within the murky confines of the CCTV footage. The air in the dimly lit room hung heavy with expectation, each passing second showcasing the mystery that clung to the scene before him. As the digital haze dissolve, a strange image emerged on the screen, a unique paw prints, but bigger than the size of a dog. Intrigued, Saul He zoomed in and took a close look at it, then searched the internet for more images that might be comparable. Then a flicker of recognition crossed his mind, a distinct memory of something similar he had seen earlier, so when he found one, he stood up right away. He walked over to the shelf where Detective Saul stored his filed.
CHAPTER 67SEEKING THE WITCH’S HELPMax took a look around the strange location Alexander had taken her to. Because of the strange smell and vibe it gave off, her heart nearly leaped out of her chest. She and Alexander had been searching for Easton for several days. If she wants to rule, she must find Easton as soon as possible. Alexander had assured her that love would come, but first she had to play the role of Luna.“He cannot simply allow a human to come and rule over us. He would screamed angrily at his sister. She is a turned wolf. Everything we have worked for will be ruined if she rules over us.”Max sighed as she reflected on his words. She whirled around to face him. “Can you tell me where this is?” She could hear water running from a distance. “How come I am not aware of this place?”“You can not be everywhere at once, Max.” He turned to face her. “This location will provide us with the solution we want. So do not be concerned and simply follow my lead.” Max discouraged Al
CHAPTER 68ENDANGERING THE PACK...you are meant to be some kind of wicked witch, aren’t you? I should be able to get rid of her with your help.”“Even though I do not like werewolves, I don’t hate them either. Despite knowing that Selena is a human, the moon goddess blessed them together. As a human, she will achieve greater things even though she is not a born wolf like you are. I cannot tell lies with my crystal. Therefore, no matter what you do or how hard you try to get rid of her, the moon goddess will always stand up for her. Try to become friends with her so that you can live in harmony rather than wasting time. "That is ridiculous! I thought that you would help me if I came here. You owe me, Quinn. You ought to hate Titus and stop assisting him!""I am not assisting him. All I am trying to do is support your pack and keep you from regretting what you are about to do. Easton is more than just a specific kind of werewolf. He is dangerous because of how much hate that is in him.
CHAPTER 69HOME ALONE WITH SISTERSThe following morning, Selena sighed and blinked her eyes open. She had never before had a day been so dull in her life like yesterday, staying idle and doing nothing at home. Thank God, she avoided misusing drugs, alcohol, or marijuana, at least.She got out of bed and opened the cotton to let in some natural sunlight. Given that it was Sunday, her mother would be attending church. Yes, she hoped. She would be able to search her room and find answers without her mother around. She chose not to heed the advice of the therapist. Selena finished all the tasks at hand and got ready for the day. She walked downstairs when it was time for breakfast. It was unusual that she did not see her mom. She focused her attention on Jade. “Did Mom not come home last night?” Selena was curious. Jade shrugged and raised an eyebrow at Selena. “I haven’t seen her or heard her voice since.” “She is preparing to go to church.” Hania said as she entered the dining room,
CHAPTER 70THE CORUNDUM AMULET “Like you, I spent the entire day yesterday at home. It was the dullest day of my life. I have some gists for you. There was a lot that happened last week.” Selena reached for a pizza slice as she sat on the bed. She invited her friends to help her eat from it. She placed it in her mouth and began chewing as she considered where to begin. “Dalett and I have something to say to you as well. Regarding your mother and our fathers. I think you are right.”Selena paused while chewing and gave them a quick glance. “Do they have an affair? Threesome?”Trisha shook her head and cast a quick glance at Dalett. “Tell her.” “My father returned home a week ago. We saw him at the ice house two days later. He was acting strangely, but Mom did not think he was. Something, however, made him wary.” She cast a glance at Trisha. Trisha went on. “I saw an amulet with my father. Dalett’s father also has it. It appears to be the same. Do you believe your mother has an amul
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
