"Well, good luck with that, Nathan." Victor immediately groped his hands in his pocket and returned to his seat and grabbed a bunch of documents from the drawer. "Anyway, I want you to sign something." He studied those documents for a few seconds first before he grabbed a signing pen and dropped them on his desk. I never heard Victor's heartbeat skipping or beating so slow. That means he was telling the truth that he wants Nathan to sign something whatever that is. "Who said I'm gonna sign anything for you, huh, Victor?" Nathan said back. And I was put into a tough situation where my wolf had to take keep an eye on both. Even if I believe that there was no harm in Victor's mood at the moment, it will not change the fact that he was the main reason why Nathan's blood boiled. "Well, if you're not going to sign this, I'm gonna let anyone do it. And you'll probably regret it if I do that since It's about the ownership of this school. You know, Nathan. Even if we don't have
"What do you think, Ghino?" Nathan asked. "Well. Not that I don't like the idea, but we have to ask them first. We need their thoughts too. Melissa and her mum died in Big Boss' hands. For me, it's too early for Vladimir to get back to his position as president. I'm not even sure if he already moved on with that nightmare of his life or had he mourned their death already. Someone with no straight thinking, might do something aggressive and start a war between two countries." Edwin and Nathan were put into silence as we continued walking through the dark tunnels, thinking about what I said. Though I did not get the chance to talk to Vladimir, not because I had something to say but because he was the president. I don't know if someone like me is allowed to get close or talk to him. After a few minutes of tailing everyone's scents, we arrived at their hidden place. Nathan handed over twenty plastic bags full of bread rolls and bottles of water we bought from the school ca
"So, you were saying I must not know even one piece of information about this wolf because you're afraid that I might say something to Victor?" Nathan raised the questions, full of doubts. He studied our eyes, one by one, begging at least one of us to support his doubts. And so are we to him, including me. Not because my wolf no longer trusts him, but because his recklessness was the main reason Victor achieved what he wants to become. And if some information about this wolf gets leaked, we can't afford to lose him since we believed that whoever this wolf is, can match or, if given the chance, defeat Victor's indestructible wolf. So, I avoided Nathan's eyes when he stayed his gaze on me, trying to ignore him as much as everyone. This mission conforms to life and death. He may be the most important being in my life but I must not just ignore there were hundreds of millions of innocent lives who are about to die. "Fine. I'd better go then," he added. Then, he tossed
"Shit. Someone wants to sabotage the mission." I muttered to Nathan but my glimmering eyes were sharply pointed at Roger and his daughter. The only piece of information I shared with Nathan was that we're heading to see Scott Mccall in a small town in San Francisco. "So, you were saying it was us who sabotage this mission?" Roger made it clear through my sharp eyes. "Are you kidding us, Ghino? Have you ever forgotten that it was you who first disobey the mission by bringing Nathan with us?" "So, you were saying, your daughter is part of this too? Don't just come clean if you're obeying what was in the plan, Mr Roger. And besides, you and Big Boss come from the same origin." This time, the tone of my voice changed. "Excuse me?" his daughter added. "How dare you accuse my father and me like that, Ghino? We've done a lot in this battle against them. And haven't you forgotten it was Nathan's kind heart who turned Victor into the monster he is now? Don't make me believe tha
As early as 3 a.m. the next morning, both lanes of the road were already busy when a few cars were coming in and out of the streets. Aside from that, I can now see a few houses from a distance, giving me the perfect opportunity to see the image of the place. "Nathan, wake up. We need to move the car now." I rubbed the edge of his face a few times until he opened his eyes. Then, I hopped out of the car to check how bad the wheel was. I slightly crouched and enlarged my claws. The distance between each claw marks we1re two to three fingers apart. It was the same size as I followed the trail of the mark with my claws. For that same reason, I concluded a hundred and one percent that the incident was intentional. Someone wrecked the wheels on purpose for the mission to get delayed. Afterwards, I studied the scenario of what happened last night including the trace of the ground before we stopped the engine of the car. Sadly, even my werewolf senses could barely see any trace
What confused me the most was that he did not even take a closer look at the damage to the car. "Umm, babe, can I talk to you for a sec?" I smiled at the repairman before Nathan turned his face at me. "Just let me know if you still wanted your car to get fixed, all right? In the meantime, I'm just gonna go check it first." The repairman clapped Nathan's shoulder and went to the small room. "What? I'm trying to negotiate with the price." Nathan muttered to me in a soft tone. He rested his arms on my shoulder as though he flirting with me. "He's watching. We better make this realistic." "But we don't have money left. How are we supposed to pay him for his expensive service fee? Can we just borrow his tools and well fix the car ourselves?" I muttered back. "Do you know how to fix it if we could borrow the tools?" Could not blame Nathan for his skeptical tone. "And besides, we need it to get fixed as soon as possible, remember?" "Dude, you're not even listening to
Two seconds after the call ended, the man's phone suddenly dings. Perhaps it has something to do with what he asked from the man he talked to over the phone. Nathan's visual confirmation. He chuckled shortly and whistled while assembling something in the cubicle. I assumed he was assembling some sort of weapon he will be using to finish the job assigned to him. Then, he gets out of the toilet room afterwards. Shit. That was what I am most afraid of. We were supposed to stay low-key in a foreign place as much as possible. But Nathan unfolds his identity to someone we barely know. Perhaps that man next in the cubicle got his information from the reservation officer. After releasing my exploding urinary bladder, I rushed out of the room and followed the man's scent heading to the casino. What worried me more is when my wolf started to lose his scent when the smell of the varieties of perfumes from a bunch of humans around distracted my concentration. Instead of taili
"Nathan, are you hurt? Did he hit you?" Before he could answer me, I immediately grabbed his body and dragged him back to the restaurant when the killer continued showering his bullets in our direction. But then I suddenly remembered the killer got his information about Nathan from someone inside. My first suspicion was that the information comes from the reservation officer. There's no one else who Nathan gave his ID and bank card. That means neither of us is safe inside the restaurant. Neither is the casino. When we were about to rush to the exit, it was no longer bullets that greeted us but blazing arrows as they hit the walls. As soon as the diners saw the fire that crawled to the ceilings, they screamed continuously and were rattled. Some of them courageously rushed outside while some went through the casino. For that same reason, the people in the casino git panicked. "Ghino, what are we gonna do?" Nathan muttered as we settled beneath the table. "We need
Because I can't stop his blood from flowing, I encourage Nathan to focus on his healing abilities. But Im not sure if he was listening to my words when I could barely feel his breathing anymore. His eyes weren't moving at all either. After hearing no sound of a single heartbeat from Nathan, I held his hands and applied what Scott taught me about absorbing someone's pain. And I don't care if I'm gonna lose all my strength and power to save Nathan. "Oh. So, sweet of you, Ghino. Still, trying to revive Nathan's life? Come on. I already told you in the nightmares a few times that you can't beat me. You can't stop me. Because you're too weak for me." Victor kept encircling me as though he was enjoying the show. "Nathan... Please, talk to me. I can't live without you. Please, wake up." I let go of my grip to relax my muscles a bit. Then, I reached out to his hands for the second time and absorbed all the discomfort that he felt. "Just give up, Ghino. He's already dead. N
The next thing that happened was when I found myself lying on the ground covered in blood. And my eyes enlarged when the scent of the blood was not mine but Scott's. So, I shortly checked my chest if I got wounded by Ghino's claws. There's none. Then, I dragged my eyes back to Scott as my eyes saw how deep the penetration was when a few drops of blood got ejected from his body while removing Ghino's hands from him. Scott turned around, ignored those drops of blood coming out of his chest, and pointed his sharp gaze at Victor. Knowing what Scott could do, Victor stepped back and shifted into a wolf. A huge terrifying wolf. It was my first time seeing him transformed into a gigantic wolf. No wonder even alphas like my dad, Vladimir, and Cerberus are terrified of him. Who could not be? His werewolf body size was three or five times bigger than Scott's wolf size. However, Scott showed no fear of his shocking transformation. He crawled closer and closer to Victor with
As soon as the ten armoured cars started trekking to the main entrance of the football field, continuous sounds of gunshots immediately arose. Howlings and moans also reverberated in our ears; our indications for me, Scott, and Lilith to head to the back entrance of the football field. As expected, Victor's wolves also greeted us when we reached the mouth of the entrance. Luckily, there were only six of them who were stationed at the back. Despite the fact that we are still outnumbered, I'm confident enough that we can defeat them with the help of Scott's true alpha power, especially when he already regained much of his power. I may not join them in his training with Ghino, but I can sense he was also regaining his strength and power in silence. "Nathan, leave these wolves to us. Better find Ghino as soon as possible. Right now, he was the most valuable wolf amongst us. He should not die and be saved at all costs. Do you understand me?" Scott made sure the message wil
{Nathan's POV} The next morning, I woke up on the bed alone with Ghino's pillows lying on the floor. After putting them back, I quickly jumped out of the bed and descended to the first floor to help everyone with the final preparation for the battle against Victor and his wolves. "How's everything?" I asked Scott when he was the first wolf who greeted my eyes the second I hopped out of the elevator. "Everything's ready, Prince Nathan. Have you checked about any updates from Roger?" Scott asked back. My hands quickly reached out to my phone in my pocket to check out of I got notified by Roger or his daughter. The second my eyes landed on the screen, I immediately called back when there were four missed calls from Roger's name. "I got a missed call from Roger," I muttered to Scott while the phone from the other line kept ringing. After a few attempts at reaching out to Roger's digits, my calls were already directing me to his mailbox. And I don't know what to
But from the way, the wolves around Cerberus looked at me, my feeble instinct was telling me I was right about it. They didn't know about my statement. That's why Cerberus immediately changed the subject. And by the way, Cerberus looked at me, his expression suddenly changed. From a steady heartbeat, they skipped a few times. Aside from that, he was pacing his eye to and from mine. "We're here for Edwin. Where is that bastard?" Nathan insisted. He then challenged Cerberus to growl back as though he had almost forgotten the man still had his alpha blood even if he already surrendered his title to Victor. "That's one of our purpose coming here, Cerberus." I produced a ticking sound in my mouth. "I'm not gonna address you politely anymore since you no longer deserve my sole respect." "We're here for a negotiation, Mr Cerberus. To get you out of the mess the Blue Moon Pack are facing into. And for you to get back your alpha title instead of just a dog to someone's sha
Three days before the full moon, we have gathered a total of sixty wolves from different packs and a hundred humans who are in the middle of their worries and fears of joining forces with us. We openly declared to them that we are not the way they think about us. That we were the same monsters who killed people. But Scott and I always encouraged them to demolish that kind of mindset; that not all werewolves are as monstrous as Victor. I hate promises, but Scott promised them that we are getting back what was right for the humans at the right time. In order to make that happen, we need them to have enough courage and help us with the plan. Roger and his daughter also flew back to Russia to seek help if he could get any. And will give us feedback as soon as possible before the full moon. As far as we know, Victor hadn't completed colonizing the entire United States. That means the rest of the countries are still untouched by Victor's wrath. However, I'm pretty sure t
"How does it differ when you go there alone without any chance of killing the murderer of your parents, Nathan? If you want to die there, I'll go with you. But we must have a plan. A divine plan. Will you trust me on this one for the last time?" Then, I shifted back into a human and offered a hand to him. Nathan stared at my hands hanging in the air for a few seconds. And it somehow hurt me when it already takes a minute, yet he did not reach out to my hands. "But this is my fight, Ghino. You've done enough for me and the pack. I don't want to accuse you again." Nathan felt sorry for what happened between us back in the town. Then, I felt at ease when he grabbed my hand. "Even if you will accuse me a million times, Nathan, I know in my heart I will never do that to you. From the day my wolf fell in love with you, I took an oath to protect you even if it cost my life." Despite the news that befell Nathan, I forced a smile at him, thinking it might change his mood. "
Without hesitation, I hopped out of the car and shifted into a wolf after seeing those three newly-bitten wolves approaching in our direction. Even from the distance, I could feel their hunger and urge to see blood on their claws and fangs. And from what I could sense, Victor's wolf scents were marked and sealed on them. It means that they were humans Victor recruited recently. The worst part is that I could barely sense any signs of mercy in their expressions. Victor intentionally left them to kill whoever they could see. That was all the nightmares about. He let me believe it was me who killed those piled-up bodies in my dream but it was his new wolves' doing. "Ghino... don't!" Nathan yelled at me but it was already too late when I jumped on the wolves and attacked them one by one which also left Scott and Nathan no choice but to follow. Roger and his daughter also helped. "Ghino, leave these three omegas with us. You better check the tunnels if they're still
"I guess that's a long story to tell, Mr Scott. How about you can continue the storytelling on our way to New York?" It sounded a bit harsh but kneeling everything about what happened to him is our less priority. Our stay in San Francisco had already taken long enough compared to what we planned which is on our second day, we must be travelling back to New York with or without Scott Mccall so we could plan our next move against Victor and his wolves. "And for the record, Mr Scott, we are gonna use the car to get to New York, not with the use of our werewolf barefoot. We don't want you to use and drain all your werewolf strength before reaching the city." Ghino added. "Okay. Just give me a sec. I need to talk to Aria first." Perhaps Scott was referring to the female alpha. Then, he shifted back to his human form and slid to the corner where the female alpha is. I slid closer to Ghino to discuss about the next plan since we already have Scott with us. Sadly, before I could even step
