One week later, it was passed. Rula continued her life as usual. NorthWulf would continue to be the safest area for her. After May's death, Rula didn't want to act rashly. She still followed her husband's words that staying in NorthWulf was the best decision.Rula began to familiarize herself with the royal breakfast. The table was large and elongated, with side dishes that were served quite well. Rula just had to choose what she wanted to eat."A doctor will be coming later to check on your pregnancy, Luna," Rondolf instructed the silence between them. Rula smiled a simple smile. "Not a shaman?"Rondolf chuckled. "We are not too old-fashioned to use a shaman to predict the state of our child.""Thank goodness. I thought I'd have to argue with you about that belief, Rondolf." Rula smiled sweetly at the end of her sentence.Rondolf looked at Rula. "Regarding May's family, I have already provided enough allowances for their lives.""I will also give May's sister a well-paying job, Luna
"An Alpha's position cannot be handled by a girl, Rondolf."Thalius had discussed this repeatedly, but Rondolf remained silent for a long time. The man did not say a word.Thalius let out a deep sigh. "I'm sure the people of NorthWulf won't accept a big mistake like this, Alpha.""Then what do you expect from me?" Rondolf looked at Thalius. "You think I would just let that happen?"The gods seemed to be toying with them. In thousands of years, the prophecy peak Grimmwolf's shield had never made a mistake of this magnitude. An Alpha was born from a prophecy believed by thousands of werewolves worldwide.Thalius busied himself again to find something to show Rondolf.Rondolf began the sentence. "For now, let's not discuss the problem with anyone.""We must both keep it a secret." Rondolf gave the instructions.Meanwhile, Thalius ignored the sentence.Rondolf looked at the fat man's shoulder. "Thalius, are you ignoring me?"Thalius turned his head. "Alpha, I think I figured it out!"Rond
"Lady! Lady!"Yarusoyya turned her head as someone shouted while running towards her while carrying the paper roll. "What's wrong with you?" Yarusoyya replied calmly, though her maid looked very panicked.Yarusoyya glanced at the roll of paper that was handed to her. "Did you bring anything from the border?"The maid nodded her head. "I can hardly believe I'm getting news like this, Lady!"Yarusoyya furrowed her brow. She didn't want to waste time, so she quickly accepted the paper scroll."I hope this news is useful to me," Yarusoyya chuckled. "There has been a lot of unimportant news lately."Yarusoyya began to read the words on the scroll. Her eyes moved, and her lips began to murmur like a shaman casting a spell."Is it serious?" Yarusoyya was taken aback. "You didn't bring the wrong news?"The maid in front of her nodded her head. "I have confirmed the news. It all came directly from the NorthWulf palace."A smirk spread over Yarusoyya's lips."There has been no direct confirmat
"Does God really exist?" Rula struggled with her mind. She kept her eyes focused on the big painting in front of her. Since first meeting Rondolf and deciding to live together and marry him, this was the first time Rula had seen the faces of Rondolf's parents, who had passed away."You can say anything you want, Luna," Rockley whispered from behind Rula. " Get their blessing."Rula smiled wryly, still not looking at the object before her. Rula sighed softly. "What can I say?""Just ask for something, Luna," Rockley said. "That's already a tradition.""If I make a wish, would it be possible for them to change the gender of the baby in my womb?"Rockley was speechless and could not answer. Rockley had not even expected that Rula would say that. Rula had the resigned phase.Rula got up from her knees. She bowed slowly, then turned around."Where are you going, Luna?" Rockley asked while interrupting Rula's steps."I want to take a tour of this place.""You told me this place was built e
Rondolf surveyed his surroundings. This place was so foreign to him."You live here alone, Andora?" Rondolf looked at Andora.She was busying herself in a corner of the room. Andora put down a large sack after she finished hunting."Who do you think I'll be staying with?" Andora turned her head with a crooked smile. "With my husband?" She laughed.Rondolf smiled, too, at the joke."Only two people know about my life in this place, Alpha." Andora walked towards Rondolf. "Those people are my father and you."Andora sat down in front of Rondolf. She had a smile on her lips."Tell me, what's your problem?" Andora asked. "I don't have any time for chit-chat with you."Rondolf chuckled. "I almost thought you were the busiest person, Andora.""What the hell are you doing in a place like this?" Rondolf asked. He looked back at the surrounding atmosphere.Naturally, a small house in the middle of the forest was only liked by people with a penchant for peace. There were no annoying noises excep
Another day has passed. Rula, however, still couldn't get used to her situation. Her sleep was never restful all night, always filled with anxious feelings that threatened to rob her of her peace. "Is there something bothering you, Rula?" Rondolf approached her. Rondolf only knew that Rula had been more silent these days. There was something she was debating with herself. However, Rula was still refusing to speak up. Rondolf put his arm around her. "Is this about your pregnancy?" he asked. Rula sighed. At first, Rula thought that she could handle this. She didn't need to keep talking to her husband about the same problem. "How many times have I told you ... you have nothing to worry about." Rondolf could only speak words to comfort her because he did not know what to do. Rondolf was afraid his decision would have worse consequences than this. "Rondolf, I'm just worried about the people in NorthWulf." Rula finally dared to speak. Rondolf could understand what Rula was worried a
"Do you know any of Luna's pregnancy secrets?" Yarusoyya enthusiastically nodded his head. She placed a medium-sized box on the table in the middle, between her seat and Rondolf. "That's why I came here and brought some souvenirs for you and Luna, Rondolf." With the warmest of smiles, Yarusoyya completed his statement. "I hope some of my souvenirs can ease some of your problems." Rondolf looked at Rula and remained silent for a brief period. Rula chose to stay out of their conversation intentionally. She listened to the talk between her husband and Yarusoyya from a more secluded but still accessible seat. Yarusoyya questioned, "Don't you want to open it?" "Do I need to open it?" Rondolf shook his head. "Yarusoyya, I don't know where you heard that secret." "However, can you hide Luna's misfortune from the people of NorthWulf?" Rondolf asked. A smile spread across Yarusoyya's lips. Then she nodded her head. "I do not mean to deceive my people, but I have no other choice." Rond
"Alpha!"A group of people shouted from the palace gate. Standing in front of the palace garden, Rula instantly turned her head and approached the origin of the noise."Let us into the palace!" The shout was heard again.Rula turned her head towards Mirha. "What's going on outside?""Why is there so much noise?" Rula became alarmed spontaneously.Mirha looked at Rula anxiously. "There are suddenly people gathering and protesting in front of the palace, Luna. They want to see Alpha.""Protesting about what?" Rula asked. The twinkle in her eyes radiated anxiety.Mirha spoke again. "Do we have to call Alpha, Luna?""No need for now. I'll talk to them." Rula decided. "Please open the gate."But Mirha could not comply with Luna's wishes freely. The problem that came was Alphas. Then, Alpha would handle it."Why aren't you doing anything? Hurry up and open the gate." Rula ordered Mirha. "Let me handle them."In the end, Mirha had no choice but to obey. She nodded then. "All right, Luna.""I
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
