"I'm not going to ask any questions. So you don't have to be concerned."When Keith approached her from behind, Rula averted her gaze."I really meant it. I agreed not to get involved in your problems." Keith soothed Rula, who was looking at him with bewilderment.Rula sighed. She was getting exhausted. Alpha Nath had given her the explanation, yet it was strange because Rula was sad. One thing stayed with her: Rondolf's life, which she said would not be extended."You can ask if you really want to." Rula's voice was hoarse. "But don't ask too many questions."Keith could feel Rula's uneasiness, and the woman carried such a tremendous burden.Keith wasn't sure what Rula was going through right now. At first sight, everything looked okay.Keith initially assumed that Rula, who had mysteriously vanished from Ondelle Haven's capital city, had relocated to a more secluded location. She began a new life as Rula Whitney, a helpless young woman.Keith, on the other hand, saw Rula dressed lux
Blood dripped from the corner of her lips. Rula's eyes narrowed sharply as she came out of her stupor. A foul odour wafted up, like burning meat mixed with the smell of wet twigs forced into charcoal."Rula?" Keith's voice sounded faintly in Rula's ears.Rula blinked her eyes. She scanned every corner of the room that her round eyes could reach.It was so dark in this room. Cobwebs were connected from one corner to another. A pile of new chairs and tables blocked the broken air vents. Lighting was insufficient, only a dimness that hampered observation and visibility."I'm here," Keith said again. His voice sounded like a low whisper.Rula turned around right behind him.Keith was lying on the dirty, muddy floor. His body had been soiled by smelly sewage water."Are you alright?" Keith was still worried about Rula rather than thinking about his fate.Rula nodded hesitantly. Her hands and feet were tied to the chair. Her whole body ached from the blunt blows and cruel treatment when she
The rustic-style interior managed to capture Keith's full attention that night. As if being entertained, he couldn't help but smile in awe. Keith's eyes roamed every corner of the room, capturing how beautiful this place was.At the sound of the door opening, Rula entered the room in a much better condition. Her injured face had been treated, and Rula's mental state had also recovered, unlike Keith, who still had residual trauma."Did you have dinner?" Rula made small talk. "There is a dining room not far from this place. If you want, Mirha will take you there.""What is this place, Rula?" Keith interrupted their conversation.Rula was silent momentarily, at a loss for how to explain."Your boyfriend ... is a werewolf?"Keith had witnessed how Rondolf transformed his physique into that of a werewolf covered in fur on his body. He saw how Rondolf killed Ottilia with his sharp nails and fangs. Keith also saw a pair of fiery red eyes. Rula couldn't deceive him anymore.Rula nodded her he
"After Lycan wiped out Ottilia's family, she was the last remaining female Rongue.""Rongue has never had a family, Rula."Rula didn't speak. Rondolf's response did not satisfy her curiosity once more.Rondolf changed into his pajamas and prepared to go to bed after roaming around with Keith while having minor conflicts accompany them.Rondolf looked at Rula, who was still stunned, and said, "We've talked about this before, haven't we?"Rula seemed to be in good health. However, everything that happened to her in Klas Alltas could not disappear. Rula recalled every detail of what happened. All of her memories were intact."Why is he so mad with you?" "He said he would exact revenge after waiting for Luna's birth."Rondolf nodded. "Because if NorthWulf's power is wiped out, Rongue will control the entire Lew-Longdon region."Rula fell silent again."The point is Rongue can't take over the core territory because Lycan's pack is standing in the way." Rondolf finished his sentence. He cr
The celebration for today was planned. The activity that occurs at a party is so crowded. Rula observed what was going on. Someone hadn't celebrated her significantly in a long time."Luna, I've accompanied Mr. Keith back to the city." Rockley submitted a report. "He arrived at his home safely."Rula nodded."The celebration will start soon, and people from all over NorthWulf will come to pray for you, Luna." Rockley continued.Rula tilted her head in his direction and fixed her eyes on him. "Will they all come?"Rockley gave him the nod. "Only people from the eastern region are not permitted to come here, Luna."Rula frowned. "Why not? They are a part of NorthWulf.""The east is the border of Bloodhound's covert operations," Rondolf said, interrupting their conversation. "That means anyone can come and pose as a citizen of the eastern region."Rula frowned."That is indeed true. NorthWulf has recently become unsafe because Luna was detected living here." Rondolf seemed to be able to
"NorthWulf has been surrounded by Oere, Rondolf."The atmosphere was thick with uncanny anxiety. There was terror all around, and the situation was no longer favorable.Rula could only sit in the corner of the room, gnawing her finger. Her calmness was hindered by anxiety, especially after she noticed the arrow wound on Rondolf's left arm."Oere?""Who is it?"Rockley handed over the scroll of paper he had received in exchange for the information he had collected from the Oere leader."They are the new pack led by Ottilia, Rondolf."The entire room became silent as a result of the shock. Yarusoyya's prediction of the mysterious pack's arrival shattered this afternoon's pleasant mood."They are avenging Ottilia's death," Rockley adds. "They even brought Ottilia's head that you cut off when you fought her at Klas Alltas."When Rula heard that, she had goosebumps. She mistakenly believed everything was over, which was unfortunate because this terrifying story still had many more chapters
Ondelle Haven, Sommerseth Republic."Would you like to investigate the wild and brutal life of werewolves?"May was the second woman who knew Keith very intimately. She laughed at Ketih's request just now.Keith furrowed his brows. "I'm serious, May."May looked at Keith's appearance today.Keith was not wearing the typical white coat of an authoritative doctor. Keith came to her as a pen pal."There's something I want to investigate about their lifestyle in the wilderness," Keith repeated. "I have to save someone's life."May got up from her seat. She brewed instant coffee to entertain Keith tonight."I'm busy, Keith," May added her explanation again. She glanced at Keith, who flinched. "There are a lot of pets that have come down with the flu or something like that lately."May then placed two cups of milky coffee on a tray and brought them to Keith. "The virus is spreading significantly and killing some animals, such as dogs and cats."Keith sighed uneasily. "May ....""The point i
"Did you kill everyone here, Yarusoyya?"Rondolf came with shock burning in his heart. The man saw no conspicuous disorder, only a soundless silence that muffled the stillness.When Rondolf entered the cave, where the last information he had gotten about where Oere had kidnapped the fake Luna from NorthWulf was, there was nothing but a pile of corpses with no sign of the previous great war."Are you disappointed to see death in this place, Alpha?" Yarusoyya smiled at Rondolf's arrival.The darkness could not hide the satisfied smile Yarusoyya had. The woman had defeated Oere without a wound on her body."Yarusoyya, how did you do all this?" Rondolf's eyes darted around him. Rodolf was sure everything would be correct.Yarusoyya approached Rondolf. "I only killed about a quarter of the Oere's pack, Alpha.""They are still scattered along Klas Alttas," Yarusoyya informed."Oere is a Rongue that Ottilia managed to convince that the strength of a pack would be more useful in destroying No
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
