It was a quiet night. The clock pointed to eleven o'clock at night. It was time for Rula to rest, but when she reached her bedroom, she heard a noise from the kitchen.Rula strolled, scanning her surroundings.Rula heard the cracking of bones. She became more and more afraid. Rula paid attention to her surroundings. As danger approached, she used a simple vase as a weapon."Who's there?" muttered Rula softly. She saw that the kitchen door was open and the air was coming in. She remembered to close the door. But someone must have sneaked in through the back door like a thief.In the room's darkness, Rula saw the back of someone busy in the corner of the kitchen. Rula slowly approached the lamp switch. Undaunted, she finally turned on the light."Melisam!" Rula gasped as she saw her daughter in the corner of the room making a strange screeching sound. Rula rubbed her chest. "Why are you there on a night like this?"Melisam turned around. She looked at Rula in shock. Melisam was sure he
Melisam couldn't fall asleep, so she decided to leave the house and watch the beautiful surroundings. The situation around her was tranquil, and people slept after a long day at work.Melisam stood in the doorway, walked out, and stood in her courtyard.Melisam closed her eyes and deeply inhaled the air that was so new to her. "I like this atmosphere," she murmured."Are you not sleeping?" Suddenly, Rula's voice was cut off. She stepped out of the house after seeing her daughter standing alone.Melisam turned her head. She hadn't anticipated that Rula would still be awake."You have a long journey tomorrow. Wouldn't it be better for you to sleep now?" Rula asked.Melisam nodded her head quickly. "I can't sleep. My mind is thinking of needless things.""I am anxious because I don't know what I will face tomorrow, Mom," Melisam replied softly. "Maybe it's because I'm too excited."Rula widened her smile. She stood beside her daughter, looking at the empty street before them.It wasn't t
"Alpha, Xabar sent a message to us."Rockley handed the scroll of paper to Rondolf."It is important news. One of Xabar's devoted bodyguards delivered the information."Rockley continued. "I deduce that Xabar would not want the news to fail to reach us today. "Rondolf just nodded his head. He began to unroll the paper. The man's eyes wandered from corner to corner of the letter in front of him, reading the information sent from the territories on the border.Therians and NorthWulf were both in yellow-flag regions. Although the war has been declared, there hasn't been any recent bloodshed to put an end to it.Until now, NorthWulf and Therians have maintained a peaceful situation.Rondolf frowned after reading the information sent to him."Is there something wrong with that information, Alpha?" Rockley detected something unusual in Rondolf's expression.Rondolf put the paper on the table. "Melisam is coming."Rockley was shocked. He was speechless."She is on the way and may arrive thi
"Welcome back to NorthWulf, Melisam!" Melisam found a heartfelt welcome. The girl had never expected to meet Yarusoyya personally. Rula had never told her anything about this woman other than that she was Luna, replacing her mother's position at the NorthWulf palace. "I'm glad to see you here, Melisam," Yarusoyya said. She hugged Melisam warmly. Melisam did not respond. She was still trying to adjust herself. Yarusoyya released their embrace. "Would you like to meet your father?" "I will take you to meet the Alpha, Melisam." Yarusoyya was gentle and friendly. "I will take you on a tour as well." Melisam just nodded her head. "Thank you." ∞∞∞∞ Melisam was fascinated with the majesty and beauty of this palace. She always had a smile on her face with every footstep. "How are you?" Yarusoyya began their conversation again. She tried to be friendly with Melisam. She knew that Melisam wouldn't initiate a conversation with her first. Melisam looked at the back of Yarusoyya, who wal
Melisam followed Rondolf Blackton's footsteps without asking him any questions. Her curiosity was stifled cause of dominated awkwardness. Melisam had just been able to adapt herself well.NorthWulf Palace was genuinely extraordinary. The majesty of this place was unquestionable. NorthWulf was the dominant territory in the entire Lew-Longdon region. So, it was no wonder that Luna's position was so important in this place."How is your mother?" Rondolf interrupted the stillness between them. The man continued without glancing at Melisam, who walked up behind him. "I hope she is fine."Melisam chuckled and nodded. She didn't say anything to Rondolf."I waited for your arrival for a long time, Melisam," Rondolf said. "I was waiting for you."Melisam would not believe it, but her heart melted at that sentence. Her hatred for Rondolf Blackton had been profound since the incident. A thousand questions shattered the peace in her life."Alpha Rondolf Blackton," Melisam calls out to him.Melisa
The sunset has come. Melisam finishes her bath. She walked out of the bathroom and dried her hair."Oh my goodness!" Melisam was shocked when she saw Zloe sitting at the edge of her bed while inspecting something from a box Yarusoyya had given her as a gift for her arrival today."If I yelled and said you were a thief, you'd be taken to the dungeon." Melisam chuckled and closed the bathroom door.Zloe glanced at her momentarily, then returned to his busy activities."What did you check?" asked Melisam. "You've been rifling for my items."Zloe sighed. "I was just checking. I thought there might be something dangerous put in here."Melisam laughed heartily when she saw her friend's actions. She took a seat not far from Zloe, watching him."Melisam ...." Zloe turned to Melisam. He looked at the girl, who was giggling. "I'm serious. She's a cunning woman."Melisam nodded in between her laughs. "You talk as if you know her.""We both just came here," Melisam said. She moved closer to Zloe.
"Did you have a good sleep, Melisam?" Melisam heard Rondolf's footsteps walking towards her. She turned her head and noticed her father approaching her. Melisam bowed politely. She smiled at Rondolf's arrival. "What about you, Alpha?" Melisam replied to Rondolf's question. "Did you have a good sleep last night?" Rondolf burst out laughing. "You look like your mother a lot, Melisam." "She was the woman who always gave the question back when I asked her first," Rondolf said as he rubbed the top of Melisam's head. Melisam was smiling with a knot. She nodded her head hesitantly. "I'm fine," Rondolf replied. " Since you are here, I can relax in my sleep." Melisam smiled again. She was trying to conceal her feelings of doubt about the Alpha. She is just trying to be mature, responding to everything without haste. For now, she has decided to get to know your father well. "You seem to love my mom," Melisam says. "I still can't believe that this is all happening." Rondolf stroked Mel
"Prince Alletis, please stop there!" Melisam was interrupted by a woman shouting to pursue a boy running toward her. The boy was playfully playing in the backyard of the palace. A few Mirha and Mafal were closely watching him. Melisam could conclude that it was her half-brother. "Prince Alletis! Be careful of your footsteps!" Alletis was the biological son of Yarusoyya and Rondolf. He would become the legitimate Alpha when he became an adult. Melisam still had to meet Alletis since her arrival here yesterday afternoon. She had been so focused on her father that she had forgotten to greet her half-brother. Crash! Alletis bumped Melisam, standing before him because the boy was not noticing his footsteps. He ran and sometimes looked back, unaware that someone had been standing before him. "Ouch!" Alletis held his forehead. When he looked up, he saw Melisam smiling with her neat teeth showing. Alletis felt unfamiliar. He had never seen Melisam's beautiful face before. "Hi!" Meli
One week has passed. Melisam witnessed a significant transformation in her life. She didn't need to hide her face, and her attendance had been blessed.All the people of NorthWulf were praising her. Everyone claimed Melisam's greatness."Alpha Melisam!"Melisam turned her head. An older woman was running towards her. She was carrying a basket of fresh meat for Melisam.She instructed Melisam, "Bring it home and eat it with your mother."Melisam smiled sweetly. "Call me Melisam," she replied. "No need for an Alpha title.""Hey, who are you?" The older woman shook her head. "You are the Alpha of this place, and you will take your father's place."Melisam replied. "My father hasn't retired yet," Melisam said. She insisted. "I am his daughter, but I am not an Alpha yet.""This is the same!" The woman insisted. She forced Melisam to accept the basket of fresh meat. "Eat this with your mother."Melisam laughed. "Thank you, Lady."Melisam grabbed the woman's hand just as she walked away. "Wh
"Your father will be fine."Melisam was relieved to hear that. She looked at Thalius hopefully. "Then, how about my mother?"Rula caught up after all the chaos in the palace."Fortunately, they quickly carried your mother to the nearest hospital in the city. So, she can be rescued." Thalius patted Melisam on the shoulder. "You do not need to be worried, Melisam."Thalius smiled kindly. "Rondolf Blackton is physically strong, and the poison in the needle has not spread throughout his body. We have responded quickly."Melisam was nodding. She sighed once more. "Thank you, Thalius."Melisam was about to leave, but Thalius grabbed her wrist. "Melisam?""What's wrong?" asked Melisam. She let Thalius finish his sentence again."Aren't you a little curious about how Alletis has been treated?" asked Thalius.Alletis was not dead. He was only suffering from a severe wound. Thalius struggled to treat these wounds. He had spent all night working intensively on Alletis' injuries.Melisam smiled w
The sun has risen. Warm sunshine shone as morning broke. However, the attack was not over. Melisam was constantly struggling to protect the ailing Alletis. Alletis' wounds began to worsen. He had an infection in a few of his body areas.Melisam began to weaken. She couldn't raise her sword anymore. However, Melisam had become the only hope to save the NorthWulf people who survived. She also had a significant burden of guilt in her heart. This mess was all her fault."We will leave NorthWulf if you give him to me." A werewolf from Man-wolf aimed a sword at Melisam.All the people of NorthWulf were terrified and could only hide while watching it from a distance.Melisam had spent the night struggling to protect everyone and the NorthWulf palace."I will not do it," Melisam said softly. She was breathing deeply. "You're the ones who need to get out of here."The man grinned. "Alletis belongs to Owein! He's part of Man-wolf! Then he'll come back with us!"Melisam had defeated all the wild
"Did you think you could kill me, dammit!" Yarusoyya kicked Rula's body away from her.Yarusoyya pulled out a dagger from her pocket. She pointed the dagger at Rula's heart. However, Rula dodged nimbly. The dagger stuck to the floor.Rula caught her breath. She was ready to counter Yarusoyya's stab."You've deceived us all to believe that you're crippled!" said Yarusoyya as she walked towards Rula.Meanwhile, Rula struggled to get up as best she could while grabbing her stomach because the dagger had pierced her abdomen."Why did you decide to kill me when you knew an ordinary human like you wouldn't trounce me?" said Yarusoyya.Rula began to take a stance. She pointed the tip of her dagger at Yarusoyya. "Back off!""You started the war with me. Why should I back off?" Yarusoyya laughed."I will kill you," Yarusoyya said. She quickened her footsteps."Kya!"Yarusoyya and Rula attacked each other. Rula was agile in deflecting Yarusoyya's attacks, while Yarusoyya used all her strength t
Melisam shot her arrows at every werewolf she felt was dangerous. Melisam noticed the chaos in front of her was increasing, and she didn't just let it happen. Melisam's empathy couldn't be lost entirely.Melisam looked at the place where Alletis was. The boy seemed overwhelmed by facing the encroaching werewolves. Alletis was dragged out of the palace and was exposed to the people who trusted Alletis to lead NorthWulf in the future.Melisam paused, then she picked up the last arrow."I can't allow it," Melisam muttered.All the chaos had engulfed every corner of this place. The fire was raging, burning everything in its path."Let him die." Marcco's voice suddenly caught Melisam's attention. The man finally appeared before her.Melisam shook her head. "The battle is over.""Everyone in NorthWulf has witnessed their Alpa's defeated performance," she said. "They have decided that the Alletis are not worthy of taking the throne."Melisam had a sense of the situation. She concluded how sc
"Melisam!" Alletis shouted. He tried to find Melisam's whereabouts."Melisam! Where are you?"Unfortunately, Alletis did not get any response. However, he did not give up. Alletis was about to exit the palace gate. However, a bulky werewolf suddenly intercepted him. He suddenly appeared in front of Alletis.Alletis was terrified. It was the first time he faced a bulky werewolf directly."Who are you?" Alletis tried to grab her sword. Unfortunately, a werewolf in front of him kicked the sword away.Alletis began to scream. "Help! Somebody, please help me!"Alletis's scream attracted the hounds. Hounds immediately battled the werewolf with all their strength. The more wolves went into the palace. It was in contrast to the hounds remaining in the castle."Who are you?" Alletis snapped. He stood up and instantly grabbed his sword. Alletis used the martial skill he had learned, but his strength needed to be more powerful. Alletis could have been more proficient with a sword.Alletis fell a
Six hours she had passed.Melisam walked out of her room. She changed her clothes. A suit of armor protected her body with a long sword in her left pocket. She prepared for tonight's war.In the middle of her footsteps, Melisam meets with Alletis. The boy stopped her steps and his look of astonishment at Melisam's appearance tonight."Do you want to have a battle?" asked Alletis.Melisam did not answer. She released Alletis's hand slowly."Mom and Dad have left, so I don't have anyone to talk to," Alletis added. "I know that our conversation earlier ended badly."Melisam continued to stare at the boy's face in front of her. She couldn't bear it, so she tried to look away. However, the wild werewolves were on their way. Chaos was about to ensue."Melisam?" asked Alletis again. "Why are you so quiet?"Alletis tried to persuade Melisam."Are you still angry with me because of my statement yesterday?" she asked again. "If you are angry about that, I will apologize."Alletis smiled sweetly
Rondolf and Rula had left NorthWulf with the best hounds Melisam had instructed to guard her mother and father.Only Melisam and Alletis remained in the palace. Rockley would also be left to guard the border tonight, and Simon was back in town to meet his family.Thalius could not help much, and the older man was not qualified to fight against all those wild werewolves.Melisam looked at the flower fields in the distance. As long as Rondolf and Rula were away from NorthWulf, the Grimmwolf Shield Peak was under her control."Melisam?"Thalius approached Melisam. He brought a cup of hot tea to the girl on a tray."Do you feel lonely even though Rondolf and Rula just left?" he asked. Thalius smiled.Thalius handed her a cup of hot tea. The palace seemed to be quiet as some of the guards had left with Rula and Rondolf.Melisam shook her head. "I just enjoy loneliness.""I never felt like this after all the troubles that always come to me." Melisam turned to Thalius. "Aren't you returning
"Was the boy with you earlier Alletis?"Melisam nodded her head. "We are finally reunited after the incident that happened yesterday." The girl turned to Marcco. "You have gotten the story from the letter I sent you."Marcco nodded his head. "I saw him for the first time.""What do you think of him?" asked Melisam. "Isn't he a cute boy?"Marcco shrugged his shoulders. He did not answer Melisam's question."Marcco," Melisam called softly. She grabbed Marcco's shoulders to stop their footsteps.Marcco looked back at Melisam. He waited for her to continue her sentence."About our plan ....""Are you thinking of stopping in the middle of the way?" Marcco asked.Melisam was silent. She stared at the young man."Have you forgotten I warned you that you cannot suddenly change your thoughts?" Marcco asserted. "Everything has happened. You can't just stop."Melisam sighed. She had doubts in her heart after having spoken with Alletis earlier."I have provoked them," Marcco spoke again. "That is
