The Secret

Kira

Several minutes later, we got in front of the orphanage building, encompassed by little bushes with a very long fence.

“Thank you.” I thanked him as I quickly traversed the road with a run and sprinted into the orphanage. Luckily, the gate proprietor was so vigilant to open the gate on my 3rd knock.

Everywhere was so quiet as I glanced at my wristwatch and saw it was 2:00 in the morning. The entrance door was already locked. I guess they weren't expecting my return at this time. 

I thought of how to get into my room as I ran towards the backyard where my room window was located and luckily, my windows weren't locked.

Furthermore, I needed to find a way to get in somewhere. Likewise, I looked around and found a ladder carefully positioned on the floor, as I immediately took it up and made its way to my window. Not only that, but I quickly climbed through. 

I finally got into my room and I fell to the floor, holding my chest and gasping for air rapidly. 

My experience so far didn't stop popping in and out of my head. I remembered how a wolf chased me for the first time during my first research as a wolf biologist. 

Those voices crying for help, those howling sounds, were something that never left my head. Most especially, the scene I witnessed, seeing a lycan turn into a human for the first time.

I swallowed my saliva as I immediately stood from the floor and rushed into the bathroom to have a shower. That would calm my brain a bit. So I thought.

I pulled off my dress and stood in front of a mirror. I felt my body burning with high temperature. I guess my fever was starting to come up again.

I saw how my legs were punctured due to the shorts I wore. I also felt pains in my foot when I lifted my foot and found I was also injured there. The injuries couldn't be compared to me, losing my life. Damn! I've got a lot to accomplish. I needed to finish what uncle Isaac's wife couldn't finish. She was killed by a wolf during her work as a wolf biologist. 

The sound of a barking dog immediately brought me out of my dazed state, as I immediately stepped out from the mirror and stood under the shower, letting the warm water run down on me from my head.

Immediately after I finished having my shower, I instantly took my drugs and climbed the bed. Hoping to get well by the next day.

Kira was 20 years old but was lucky to have rapid growth which made people believe she was already 22 years old. 

Despite being so young, she was already a graduate and was now a wolf biologist thanks to a scholarship. She was offered a scholarship by the state when they realized she was one of the brightest kids in the local orphanage where she was being raised. 

She never got the opportunity to know who her parents were. Furthermore, she came to realize that the kids who stayed in the orphanage were kids who lost their parents, either by death or some other way. She adapted to the truth about her identity, and she didn't let that stop her from being happy about life. She was ready to protect her life no matter what.

Back in the bush…

Logan knew it was really dangerous for him to be in the wolf territory in human form, so he decided to transform back into his Lycan form as he ventured into the bush, leaping back to meet with his family. On his way back home, he heard several gunshots in the bush but tried his best to escape.

The moment he got to the bush near his home, he transformed back into a human as he wore his dress and walked into his house. Just after he took a few steps into the house, he fell to the ground, weak. That was the scene that caught the eyes of his wife, Kate, and his first son Scott who was 24 years old.

“Dad…” Said Scott as he rushed his father, trying to help him stand on his feet.

“Oh, my goodness!… Not again! Your father is stubborn.”  She said worriedly as she helped Scott take Logan into the room, but while they walked, they discovered he was already bleeding. It looked like a gunshot, and it seemed the human behind it must have shot him with a silver bullet. 

A few minutes after Logan's injuries were taken care of, Scott heard some howling outside. He quickly ran out only to realize it was his 21 years old little brother who was still in a Lycan form.

“Not again…” he said frustrated, hitting his head as he pinched the skin in between his brows. 

“Shhhhhhh… it's me…” he spoke calmly.

“Easy… Easy…” He tried everything possible to make his little brother come back to his senses, but none of his efforts were working. 

Kate, who was inside the room with Logan, heard the howl, so she immediately rushed out and saw her little son. In no time, he rushed her and was about to bite her, but Scott was so quick to stop him as he held his mouth and dragged them apart. Which made his little brother fall to the ground weak and immediately changed back into a human. 

“Mom, are you hurt?" Scott asked and she shook her head.

“I'm fine.” Did you hurt him?” She asked, looking worried as she walked towards her little son.

“He will be fine,” Scott replied and carried his little brother as he walked into the house to clean him up.

The secret about Logan's family…

Logan was a Lycan by birth, whose parents happened to be human but lost their lives in a car accident. The secret behind two human given birth to a lycan was a mystery to those who didn't know the truth about his it. He fell in love with a human whose name happened to be Kate. They got married and bore two sons named Scott and Derek. 

Scott was the eldest and possessed the same power as his father. He got the ability to transform into a Lycan at will and also a human when he wishes to, but his little brother Derek…

Controlling his power was something he struggled to do. He transforms at any time and harms whoever was unlucky to be present at that moment and finds it difficult to recognize faces, especially when he turns into a wolf. 

Derek could turn into a wolf, Lycan, and also into a human. Logan and Scott didn't have such ability. The only ability they had was to turn into a lycan and human. They couldn't turn into a wolf, just like Derek.
