No words can describe how nervous I was. Until I saw a big gate within the vicinity. "I-I think we should get there!" I exclaimed as I consciously looked back. They were still chasing us. Though there's still a bit of distance between us. I can't say that we're safe already.My forehead creased as we neared the big gate. It automatically opened. That was cool, and I wasn't expecting that. A beautiful community greeted us. He stopped when we finally entered, but when I shifted my gaze to the back, the werewolves still followed us inside. What the hell? "H-Hey run still. They were here too!" But he didn't move. I got off of his back and was about to run when those five werewolves shifted to their human forms. My jaw dropped seeing their wide smirk at me like they were having too much fun. And when I glanced at the stranger I met, he was in his human form as well, with a small smile creeping out of his lips. "W-What's this?" I asked unbelievably. "Oh, I forgot to tell you that they
Tell me she's just lying. "T-That was a good joke," I commented and faked a laugh even though she didn't sound like one. "I wasn't joking, Chandria." "Come, I'll show you how excited they were all to meet you." Elysa gently held my arms and dragged me next to the transparent glass window." There I saw that everyone was dancing and having fun. I even saw Everett drinking and laughing with his men. "Was Everett really the Alpha of this pack?" It slipped out of my mouth quickly when it was supposed to be just a question in my mind. Though with how he plays with his men, he doesn't look like an Alpha with great authority to me. "Yeah, he is. He reminds me of his father, they treat us like we were on the same level." Elysa's voice brightened up, and when I glanced at her, her eyes were glimmering. "Alpha Everett was very kind, and he'd always choose peace over war, for the sake of his people." That was amazing indeed. Contrary to the Alpha, I knew who didn't seem to care about his
Alpha Everett gave me a blank stare before he shifted his gaze at the woman. As he made his way towards her, I dashed out of the spotlight to give them. There's no need for me to stay here anymore. I gave them one more glance before I left straight for the dark forest. I should head my way back to the Black Stygian Pack. I only had a few hours left for the two-day time limit that Priam gave me. I just hope he wasn't true to his words, and he didn't mean it that night. But what if he does? The tall grass touched my skin as I frisk inside, the huge trees were towering over me, blocking the light from the moon to give me a vision. This is hard. I should've waited for the daylight, but on second thought, I didn't want to return. As the cold wind blew, I hugged myself as I shivered. I was still wearing the white dress, and it was sleeveless, so I didn't have anything to cover my skin from the freezing weather. Not sure if this was the right path to the pack, but at this moment I had to t
"W-What did you just say?" I asked unbelievably. "Are you deaf or what? Just stay where you are and wait for the execution..." "No!" I quickly cut him off. How could he say that bluntly when Celestine served their pack for so long? "You should let me inside or else she will die," I added. I couldn't find the right words with the anxiousness running in my system right now. "It's too late now..." "Gaspar! Let her in!" A woman in her fifties suddenly exclaimed, and as the two Gamma's attention was distracted, I quickly ran inside. I'll thank her later. For now, I should save Celestine first, every drop of second matters. The pack was gathered in the middle of the huge ground, eyeing one woman who was tied up to a hanging metal stick. Her arms and legs were wide spread open, and she was surrounded by flammable materials. "Celestine should be condemned for siding with our rival pack's Luna." The man who seemed to be Priam's right hand uttered in front of everyone. "She has to be ex
Looking away, a bitter smile escaped my lips. "But that agreement saved Celestine's life." "If there's someone who should be bailed out, it was her. Not me, or my twin sister. We deserve this after all." "You lost a great Alpha." I continued, pertaining to Alpha Priam's father. "It was unexpected, and we're all shocked by that sudden news. But we can't prevent things that are destined to happen." Keeping my mouth shut, no right words could tame the guilt I have right now. It's all my fault. "I should go now." She breaks the silence between us. "Thank you..?," I uttered once again, waiting for her to say her name. "Calista." "Thank you, Calista." She only smiled at me before heading her way out of the room, leaving me with Celestine alone. A tear that I'd been refraining from falling finally glided down to my cheeks. "I-I'm so sorry," I whispered, seeing all her fresh bruises on the skin made me want to curse myself more. I don't know how long I was staring at her face, her
The scarlet eyes were slowly showing. Like Alpha Primo when his anger cannot be tamed, or when he's about to shift. Worry fills my core for the woman who was striving to survive from the Alpha's grip on her. "How dare you touch her?" He asked menacingly. "I-I'm sorry... A-Alpha." "I-I didn't mean to... But she p-provoked me saying she'd lure you..." What the f*ck is she talking about now? But I didn't say a word, and I knew Alpha Priam wouldn't listen to me, so defendingmyself was just a waste of time. "I-I just want to save our pack from an o-outsider like her, she d-doesn't belong to us." But as long as she said a word, I could see how he tightened his grip on her neck. "A-Alpha, you'll kill her." I quickly interject. Her face was completely pale, proof that she was barely breathing, and no blood was circulating her face. Startling at the glare he threw me, he slowly put down the woman who was now struggling to gasp for air. Swallowing the lump in my throat as he stepped for
As the woman was fully gone out of his presence, Priam shifted to his wolf. A huge black werewolf, with a scarlet eye as he runs inside the forest, fast and agile. The ground almost shook with the strength and force he was releasing. When he reached the peak of the mountain where he could see the whole pack, his eyes darted at the woman who was talking to Celestine. It was clear to his vision how the woman smiled. It is one of the abilities of his eyes, he could see clearly from a distance. His jaw clenched in wrath. ‘She deserves to die.’ ‘I’ll show no mercy towards them.’ ‘Those who killed you, father.’ ‘They will pay for it, thrice the pain they’ve cost me.’***Returning to the pack, I caught their attention again, but they quickly removed their gaze. Even the woman earlier glared at me.“Chandria!” It was Celestine who waved her hands at me. What the hell is she doing outside of her abode? “You are supposed to rest, Celestine.” I greeted her with those words, but she only
What does it mean?“Yes, I am a member of this pack, Chandria. Alpha Priam called and hired me to train you.” She added, all the questions in my mind were probably written on my face right now. That’s why, even though I am not saying a word, she already knew what I was thinking. “Alpha Priam saved me in the forest when my pack kicked me out as someone set me up, and everyone thinks that I betrayed them.” She started. “Like what happened to you? But yours is pretty much worse. I guess the pack doesn’t want me dead. They just don’t want me lingering around them, they can’t trust me.” “He took me here in the pack, fed me, gave me clean clothes to wear, and gave me a reason to live, as I was really hopeless at that time, because nothing hurts being neglected by the pack that you had grown up.”I nodded, I could understand where the pain was coming from. Based on my experience, it feels like your own mother doesn’t want you. That’s how we foresee our pack. “As a token, after Alpha Phil
