I looked at Blake who was also looking at me with a serious expression. There was no surprise in his eyes even though I told him that I wanted to return with him to the Red Moon Pack. Instead, he was calm and looked like he was in deep thought. I nibbled my bottom lip, wondering what he was thinking. For a few seconds, he did not say anything, slightly making me feel worried. Blake slightly furrowed his brows before letting out a sigh. Then, gave me a little smile and told me with a gentle voice, "Alright." It was the answer that I was hoping for. I let out a dramatic sigh of relief. Black saw my action and tapped the tip of my nose. "You can come with me. Don't worry, I will take care of you. No matter what happens," he spoke like a whisper of promise that came straight in my heart. A promise that he would protect me and that he would not allow the previous situation to happen. I immediately felt warm in my heart as a smile bloomed on my lips. A thought flashed in my mind. "I ca
The Red Moon Pack was crowded. The inauguration ceremony for Vanessa would be held tomorrow but people from the different packs already arrived to attend the inauguration party. Though with a look, one could already tell that some of them were there not to attend Vanessa's inauguration party. They were there to meet the mysterious Lycan King and see his true face!"Greetings, Lycan King and guests from the Silver Pack," a servant that I knew immediately came and greeted us. My eyes flashed. He was one of those who used to previously bully me. "This way, follow me please," the servant bowed and gestured with his hands. He looked nervous and very respectful, completely opposite to how he treated me before. I started feeling awkward. A few minutes later, we arrived at the entrance of the banquet hall. It was already filled by the members of the Red Moon Pack. The moment we arrived, everyone's gaze fell on us. Most of them were focused on Blake who stood in front of us. But there were
“Hey,” Allan called me.I stood there frozen. Many thoughts immediately filled my mind but I was unsure what to do. I started feeling nervous. 'What is he doing here?' Alan became impatient after not receiving a reply for a long time. "Turn around and explain what you are doing here." This time, his voice sounded forceful. I heard his footsteps approaching. I did not dare make a sound. The moment I say anything, Alan would immediately recognize me. The room was filled with tension. Suddenly, another person appeared. Then, I heard another familiar voice. "Alan Meyer," the person said. It was Arthur! I secretly let out a sigh of relief.Alan turned and stared at Arthur suspiciously. Immediately, he turned his focus from me to Arthur. Arthur ignored him and stood in front of me, blocking me from his sight. "This person is a Beta of the Silver pack. Show respect!" Arthur confronted him. "She deserves to be treated highly... although she is a bit dumb!" Arthur added, making my face
I hid at the corner of the room and panicked. Beside me, Arthur started to sweat. Both of us stayed still and did not dare move. The sound of the door opening never been so clear. Then, it was followed by a set of footsteps that became more and more clear by each passing second. It could only mean one thing... the person was walking closer and closer towards our direction! I felt a thump in my chest. A few more seconds later, I realized something that made me even more nervous and afraid... The sounds of the footsteps were very similar...My hands broke into sweat. I could no longer hold it in, as quietly as I could be, I took a peek at through the gap to make sure who came into the poison room. When I saw him, my entire body froze.It’s father!I looked at him and a cold sweats started dripping down my spine. Compared to when I saw him during the banquet, I was much closer to him... close enough to see that the hairs on his temply was much grayer. I gripped the hem of my shirt.
I stared at the injured beta and started to feel anxious. I stepped forward subconsciously. Thankfully, Arthur grabbed me by the arm. "Chloe, what are you doing?" He whispered before pulling me back.I stepped back dumbly, but my heart was very nervous.The entire banquet hall was filled with discussions. Alan immediately walked towards my father who remained composed despite the situation."I apologize, everyone. We have a bit of a situation, but it will be handled accordingly," my father calmly said. "This kind of thing didn't happen before. But it's just a small matter. I will go and resolve it before returning to join you here," he added before leaving the banquet hall. Alan was following behind him.In the main seat, Vanessa and Lisa looked worried but tried to keep their polite smiles in front of everyone. I looked at Blake. He was still sitting there, looking calm and composed, as if he predicted that something like this would happen.'Could this be caused by Blake?' I thought
I looked up and squinted as the sun brightly shone in the sky. It was a good day, and the Red Moon Pack was bustling."I'm so excited! The inauguration ceremony is about to start!""Me too! I can't wait until Vanessa becomes our new alpha!"The members of the pack gossiped as I passed by. Everyone was in a great mood as they happily awaited the start of the inauguration ceremony. I tried to tune them out, but when I heard my name, I could not help but listen intently."Our pack's future is very bright! Thank goodness our Alpha didn't choose Chloe, that useless daughter, to be our next alpha," I heard the maid who was carrying some cleaning supplies said. Beside her was another maid who was carrying a big bucket."You're right! The Alpha is thinking for the sake of our future," the other maid replied. "Anyway... do you have news on what happened to Chloe? We didn't hear anything about her ever since she left the pack," she added, sounding curious."Why are you even asking? There's a hi
My father looked at Blake with meaningful eyes. The entire hall fell into deafening silence. All of us were looking at Blake, some of the members of the other packs looked convinced and were nodding their heads in agreement. Some of the members of the Red Moon Pack had ghastly and fearful faces, while the others, like Alan, were looking at Blake with rage."You...! What did you just say? How dare you openly threaten us!" Alan yelled as he started to step forward Blake, ready to start a fight. My father grabbed his arm before he could take a step."Stop," father ordered with an authoritative voice. Alan's eyes widened with surprise. He could not believe my father just stopped him."But Alpha--" He started to protest but my father raised a hand and cut him off. Alan's face turned from white to red. He pressed his lips together and glared at Blake instead.Seeing that Alan stood down, my father turned to Blake before saying, "I will find the murderer within three days." Only a few minu
Alan pushed the door open. Right away, the image of Vanessa clinging to Blake greeted us. Vanessa was standing so close to Blake. She was pressing her chest area to him and her hand was on top of his chest. Her shirt was almost half open, with her collar down and the top parts of her breasts seductively exposed. In direct contrast to her appearance, Blake on the other hand looked calm and at ease. He was just standing there without care, it was as if everything that was going-on did not involve him. He did not even look at Vanessa. Blake obviously did not care about Vanessa. But seeing her so close to him, I still felt a little jealous. On the other hand, Alan, who was standing two feet away from me, was vivid. He clenched his fists and his shoulders were trembling from anger. Vanessa looked at Alan with wide eyes. She quickly moved away from Blake and hurriedly fixed her shirt. Then, she started to approach Alan. “Alan... baby... It’s not what you think. I can explain...” She be
ChloeWe stared at the sight in shock and a flash of realization came over us as the puncture on the fog wall rapidly closed up.“As you can see, we can only see the pathway for a few seconds then it will close again…” Alpha Nador calmly exclaimed. Then from his large bag, he revealed a thick rope, heavy and long. “We need to have one person, the most nimble among us to cross the thin pathway. Once he reaches the other side, he has to connect the rope so that all others will be guided. For I can only open the fog wall here on the stable ground. The pathway is so thin that it would crumble once we tried to exert our energies while stepping on it.” Alpha Nador then explained. Then he looked at us, asking with his eyes who among us would be the first to cross the path. “I’ll go…” Blake did not hesitate and immediately answered. “Good!” Alpha Nador said as he tied the rope on Blake’s waist and told him some instructions. Before he went, I held his hand and said in worry, “Be careful
ChloeThere has been a great change at the joint camp these days. After Blake’s last expedition in the Rain Valley, we welcomed the news of a newfound ally.Alpha Nador, the leader of the Rain Valley pack surrendered to Blake in an all-out duel and submitted themselves to his command.While it was not a smooth process of acquiring allies, we managed to pull through and integrate their members into our alliance after ensuring that they all agreed that we would put all hostilities behind us. Just like the Frost Fang pack, the alliance will only last until we have eradicated Alpha Kain’s forces. After that, we will release them to be independent.This condition made the other members of the Rain Valley pack finally put their doubts behind them and fully face our goals head-on.Another thing that made us shocked was the discovery of a hidden association of werewolf packs who were against Alpha Kain’s regime. Because Alpha Nador had recently joined, he also gave us the information about t
BlakeRumble!!!As the thunder and lightning covered the dark expanse of the Rain Valley, so were the attacks being released back and forth. With the explosive blows he had released for quite a long period of exchange, I could not help but admire his might. How could he last for so long maintaining the peak condition of his attacks while also receiving blows from me?“C’mmon… Aren’t you so arrogant to say that you would subdue me and show me what you are made of?” There was a trace of impatience on the Rain Valley Alpha’s tone. “If you are not going to move, then I’ll take that as you admitting your defeat!” With that he gathered all his power and charged once more with another attack.I stood there unmoving, my heart was still contemplating as to why there is a small part of me that was hesitant to take the life of this Alpha. It’s like something from far away… where my hands couldn’t reach, tells me that I have to spare the Rain Valley Pack!However, in the utterly muddy and rain
BlakeCaleb noticed the person a second too late, and so despite his preparation the angle where the opponent is coming from will surely deal a great amount of damage to him. My face darkened as I realized this, without thinking further I used Eron’s power to rush in the attacker’s position to impede his attack.Boom!!As I brandished my fist to meet the large body of the opponent and the impact caused a sudden gust of the wind throwing off everyone in the battlefield. “Alpha…” Caleb realized what had happened when the pain he was anticipating did not land on his body. He looked at me wide eyed as he did not expect me to intercept the attacker’s movement while coming from a distance. “Don’t mind me… rally the troops and handle the rest! I’ll take this one!” I instructed. Surprisingly and for the first time, I saw no trace of resistance and stiffness on Caleb’s face as he nodded and obeyed my command. Welcoming the new development, I was relieved to take this position as I know t
BlakeWith that everyone took their own places and readjusted. After that, I called for Idriss and Caleb to assemble them after an hour to check of their temperaments. Even as the temporary alpha of this team, I could feel the state of their being just by looking at their countenance. While it seemed like everything was according to Caleb and Idris’s plans by far, we cannot let our guards down and cause a fatal error to the mission. To my relief, all seemed to come back to their peak state when they regrouped after an hour. Going with it was the night finally ripening even as the rain continued to fall unceasingly. As the heavy droplets of water poured down endlessly on the valley the forest became pitch black and the ground became muddier the longer we traversed in it. There’s no other silence but the incessant rain and there’s no other obstacle but the cruel terrain. Even so all of us silently pressed forward having to come here with a mission at hand. Soon the first teams re
Blake The entire barracks went silent momentarily, but the sound of cheers came right after. To the members of the alliance, the presence of one leader will empower them as they go on a dangerous mission. Idris was calm but his eyes looked at me with appreciation. However, Caleb still had a frozen look on his face.As for me, his attitude isn't something I mind, unless provokes me by making a move on Chloe.As for his loyalty, I know that he wouldn't betray the alliance so I left it like that.Having announced my decision I left the briefing on Caleb and Idris, letting them know that while I said that I will join the expedition, it will not cause a change on the plans the two have already set."Tonight, we will set off to the target alliance that we have on our list…" It was Caleb who did the honors in introducing the target to everyone. "...Living on the far west from the Blood Hound Pack, the Rain Valley Pack is the last pack that we have to take on for the second phase of our
BlakeAs soon as I uttered those words, Chloe’s body froze momentarily in surprise. The next moment she gave a light hearted chuckle and sunk into my embrace. Her response was fully welcomed by every bit of my being. Like we are each other’s fountain of life, we stayed like that for a little while. I looked down and took a good look at my mate’s face once more. Caressing the side of her face, my heart felt the piercing pain of seeing how exhausted she was as she pushed herself in deciphering the poison.“I heard from your student and Arthur that you have not gone out since taking the poison from my sickbed? Why do you torture your body this much?” I uttered in helpless pain. But when I was expecting for her to give me a rather serious explanation, I was blown away when I saw my mate pout adorably as she replied back, “What goes the same to you, aint it?” My heart felt like it was going to drop. For I am not prepared to be attacked in such a way. Her eyes looked at me as she contin
Blake“There you go… All done!” Arthur clapped his hands as he took the casts and bandages in my body. After two days of recovering, my body is finally ready to move normally. Thanks to the combined efforts of Arthur and Chloe, developing a potion that could repair broken bones, I was able to come back in tip-top shape in less than a week even with the heavy injuries that I had. “What’s your plans today?” Arthur cast a curious look on me as he tidied up his things and prepared to go to Chloe’s laboratory.“I was thinking of visiting your lab to see Chloe... But looking at your countenance these days, it seems like everything isn’t going well?” I replied. “Sigh… it is as you said… I’ve even contacted Father to take a look at it because it seems like we were not even close to deciphering a layer of it…” Arthur brushed his head while lamenting over the matter of the poison. “It’s only been two days… don’t pressure yourself too much,” I replied. “I know man…. But we cannot afford tha
Chloe“Made by Uncle Gauss?” My entire body trembled when I heard his name and the words that Blake said. In my hands, the very poison used by my uncle to kill Dad. The very poison I was not able to successfully save my father from. And even after his death and after five years of relentlessly searching, there was still no clue as to what could counter this poison at all. This very poison was one of the two poisons I promised myself to defeat, the other being the one that infected me and Aurora. “Chloe… you good?” Arthur called out softly as the two of them noticed that I fell in a daze the moment I heard the information from Blake. “No, I’m fine… it’s just that, I did not expect that I would have to encounter this poison when I am still unable to find out how to counter it.” For the first time in the last five years, I openly told someone that I was unable to guarantee that I could deal with this poison in front of me. “Don’t worry, we’ll help you. Esha is also a good child you
