Chapter 5: Ridiculed

“The cursed pack?”

“Aren't their pack annihilated already?”

“They have to be punished!”

“Take care of them” Alpha Broderick said to the doctor before looking at Delta Cluxx. “Delta, gather our warriors. We have to enact revenge.”

Delta Cluxx immediately heeded his command and left the treatment house.

“Beta Jack, you'll be left in the pack to guard this place with the other elders” Alpha Broderick added staring fixedly at his older brother whose strength was only inferior to him.

“Alpha, can't I come with you? I want to kill those filthy Blood Moon with my own hands” Beta Jack replied gritting his teeth.

“No, you have to stay here and protect the pack. I'll bring Delta Cluxx with me instead. Don't let your guard down while I'm away” Alpha Broderick reminded, he looked at Gamma Sydric for the last time before leaving.

Beta Jack stared at Alpha Broderick's fading silhouette with unknown expression on his face.

“You're finally back...” Luna Dianne said happily. When she saw his husband’s solemn face, she couldn’t help but asked. “Is something wrong?”

“Where's our daughter?” Alpha Broderick asked instead of answering her question.

“She left just moment ago, she said she'll visit her friends” Luna Dianne answered while looking intently at Alpha Broderick.

“When she returned, tell her to stay at home while I'm away and if she needs help, just look for Beta Jack” Alpha Broderick spoke, he then went to the cabinet and took out his battle coat.

“I will, but honey, can you tell me where you are going?” Luna Dianne asked worriedly.

Alpha Broderick paused for a moment, he was hesitant to tell her. But after pondering for some time he replied, “A pack just committed something unforgivable, I'll be going there to fix everything”

He didn't tell her the whole truth. It was to protect her and to not make her worry of his well-being. Blood Moon Pack is a dangerous group of werewolf, among all packs in existence, they are the only one that lust for blood. They are like a wolf vampire, a savage creature.

Their group was known as the descendants of the blood king and was known as the vampires pet. In the past, their group was considered a family, living together in harmony with the other pack. However, one night destroyed their beautiful image, they started becoming crazy.

Alpha Broderick's father told him that someone controlled them that day. It was none other than the blood king, the noble vampire who hates werewolf to the bone. No one know the reason why, but one thing was certain, vampire and werewolves will always be enemy.

By the time Alpha Broderick left his house, Delta Cluxx was already waiting for him. His looks different from before, he's now wearing the battle coat of their pack and look more stunning befitting that of a warrior.

“We'll only bring fifty people with us, you'll be the one leading half of them to scout while the rest will stay with me” Alpha Broderick said seriously. Delta Cluxx only nodded his head in understanding.

Princess Hana walked around peacefully with a bright smile plastered on her face. She's currently searching for her best friend, normally, Cindy would visit her house every morning but today she didn’t come.

She can't wait any longer and chose to search for her and have fun. Finally, she found her sitting near the pond with the other young adult of their pack. They were all laughing happily and joking around.

Princess Hana smiled seeing them happily enjoying the moment and went to them. Suddenly, she heard someone asked Cindy about her.

“Hey Cindy, why didn't you picked Princess Hana today? I thought you were best friends?” a tall girl with a ponytail hair asked. She also have a beautiful face, clear almond eyes, tender lips, and just right nose.

“Her? Why would I pick her? She's nothing but a wolf less princess” Cindy replied laughing out loud.

Hearing her best friend's response, Princess Hana's heart throbbed in pain. The best friend that she thought cared for her, was actually back stabbing her behind her back.

“But she's still the princess, don't say something like that” a young man of short stature spoke trying to protect Princess Hana. His face was short of handsomeness, but his build was burly that he looks attractive like a warrior.

Cindy chuckled in disdain. “Oh my, I forgot Dave was with us, what should I do now? He'll definitely tell Princess Hana about what I said today”

With that said, Cindy look towards the girl with a ponytail hair and said. “Hey Martha help me, Princess Hana's admirer will definitely hate me”

“Pfft— hahaha!”

Martha laughed hard from Cindy's play, her shoulders even shook because of her laughter. Suddenly, her eyes caught a glimpse of a girl with a red hair looking towards them with eyes that was about to tear up.

Her laughter stopped and got petrified, her sudden change didn't miss Cindy's keen eyesight and looked towards where she was looking. There, she saw princess Hana. She couldn't help but feel like being splashed with a bucket of cold water.

She didn't thought Princess Hana would come here, she was too reckless. 'Maybe she didn't hear what I said?' with that in mind, she smiled brightly before walking towards Princess Hana.

“Princess, you're here, your mother told me that you don't want to play today so I didn't bother inviting you” Cindy spoke sympathetically, her action was so flawless that it was hard to determine if she was lying or not.

Princess Hana looked deeply at her best friend, she can't believe she was her friend. How come she doesn't know this side of her?

'I didn't think I've been living all my days together with this snake, maybe the happy moments we shared together, the promises we made were all lies?' Princess Hana thought losing the trust she had to Cindy.

She was pondering deeply that she didn't notice Cindy's embarrassment on her face. Princess Hana sighed inwardly afterwards before turning around planning to leave.

When suddenly, a hand grabbed her right shoulder making her turn.

Slap!

A palm hit her face hard leaving a red hand print.
