A few minutes later, Lilith appeared in the detention hall carrying a box of medical kits. I then broke a half-smile at her before she could grab her seat next to King to fetch his wounds from our punches. "I'm so sorry about earlier, babe," Lilith muttered as she reached her hands on King's face. She was surprised when she could barely feel any tension between the three of us in one room considering our debates earlier were extremely intense. "You shouldn't have done that, Lilith. Ghino was already part of your past. Don't tell me you still have feelings for that metallic pauper?" King muttered back but my wolf could not help but smirk. "King, deny it or not, what happened earlier was all your fault. Every room had its CCTV cameras. If someone will be kicked out from this school first should be you. Your brain and heart can't control your rude mouth." Lilith retorted straight to King's face. Good thing she considered what we did to King was reasonable since she to
"No. I'm not saying anything." My wolf muttered back to Nadine with my blazing eyes locked up to Big Boss' ear-to-ear smile. "Do you guys know who he was?" Jackson asked. Nadine and Edwin simply lifted the tip of their shoulders as expected. Even if their eyes were already pointed at me, my focus was still pointed to Big Boss, thinking about what was he really up to. At first, he stepped into Nathan's class. But now, he was with us. That makes me wonder what he was really up to, but my wolf instinct tells me that it was not just Nathan he was keeping track of. He included me on the list. "Ladies and gentlemen, from now on, I will be your history professor. If you have further questions about me, you can throw them now before I could start my class." Big Boss remained his eyes on me as he dropped his but on the edge of his desk. One of our classmates immediately volunteered. "What happened to our previous professor, Mr...?" "Big Boss. You guys can call me Bi
Some of our classmates who are seated next to us might hear my words as well but still, their thoughts would be the last thing I would give my full attention to. They knew the better. However, what was more alarming at the moment were my friends' bothering expressions upon hearing my response to Nadine's inquiry. None of them knew about it if I haven't told them just now. "But what is he doing in our school? What is he up to?" Nadine asked. This time, she speaks a bit softer compared to her previous inquiry. Soft enough her mouth did not even move a bit. "We still don't know yet. But he was Nathan's professor in their history subject earlier." I muttered back. "The four of you? Detention hall for one hour. And don't you dare get out of the detention hall without my approval. Are we clear?" Big Boss ascended his voice to the point that some of the students suddenly felt terrified of him. "What?" Jackson debated, considering he was simply focused in front of us.
"That's why we need you to be our eyes and ears from Big Boss, dude," then I lifted my wristwatch shortly. We still have forty-five minutes left before the one-hour allocation ends. "But I want you to keep an eye outside too for you to see if the devil is coming to the detention hall." "Why can't you just discuss everything through a Facebook group? I can create one if you need one. In that way, you guys can discuss everything without vocalizing a word." Jackson highly suggested. "That's a good idea, dude. Please, include that as part of your job while we were trekking to the second building. We'll take that FB group thing once that devil will return my phone. In the meantime, do not add me to the group yet. He's checking on my phone from time to time." Then, I nodded to Edwin and Nadine as they were both ready to go. Jackson helplessly followed his gaze behind our backs as we rushed to the exit. As soon as my wolf stepped out of the detention hall, I immediately enhan
Edwin and Nadine then moved out of their seats and leapt to the doorway. Even if the threat to our wolves was in the other building, their worries and fears were evidently inevitable. My wolf can sense their uncomfortable feelings running in a race. "Ghino, apology, but I can't risk my wolf anymore. If you're not yet done discussing the plan with Nathan, we can't wait for you to finish it." Edwin indeed did not wait for me to at least move out of my seat when he and Nadine disappeared from the room. "Go," Nathan muttered. "Are you sure?" I asked. "Yeah. Please, go, Ghino. You've done enough for today. I don't want to cause you more trouble because of me." Nathan insisted. "Edwin and Nadine are already away." Leaving no choice, I broke a smile at Nathan before I slid to the doorway. "Ghino?" he added. "What?" I asked while enhancing my senses tailing Edwin and Nadine's whereabouts before dragging them back to Nathan. Nathan smiled back. "How
"Let go of him, you monster!" My wolf ordered Big Boss in a stuttering tone. Even if my worries and fears already preceded my courage, my wolf had to do something for Jackson before Big Boss could do awful things to him. Jackson has been my only human best friend since the world began. And the only human who accepted me for who I am not without judgement even if we already reached the point that our secrets have already been unfolded. We never heard any despise, or sensed any sign of worries and fears from him since the first day we voluntarily disclosed our little secrets to him. Instead, he accepted us and continued being our friends. The best thing about Jackson is that he never told anyone our secrets. At least none that I know of. "Let go of him, you son of a bitch. Or this video will flood the school. With just one click of my finger, the entire school will know how terrible professor you are." Nathan and Lilith, along with her female friends appeared in the
"You're not following instructions, Nathan," Big Boss chuckled shortly. "I said yours and your dad's badges. Not just yours as it has not enough value to me. My wolf instinct knows your poor daddy has his badge hidden for me not to get what I want to the Crescent. Give it to me before everything gets worse." Nathan suddenly inserted his right hand in his pocket as though he was hiding something from Big Boss. But when I glanced over Nathan's hand, my wolf was pretty sure there has no other ring on either of his fingers aside from the ring he tossed to Big Boss. Well. That explains why Big Boss kept in touch with Nathan even if he already beat the Crescent's alpha and Vladimir. But even if he already beat two powerful alphas, his mission still fails as long as he doesn't have the ring. "Then your wolf instinct was mistaken if you think Nathan had his dad's ring. As far as I could remember, Nathan and his dad were not on good terms before you attacked them. Let's go, Nat
Breathing out my name has made me feel completely intrigued. Based on my abrupt observation, I haven't seen the two of their faces in my memory lane until they unexpectedly both showed up in my room. My wolf hasn't seen one of Big Boss' wolves too. So, it was kinda hard for me to determine whether they were threats to my wolf or not. But the one thing I knew is that they were Russian wolves. The same as Big Boss. That was enough reason for me to consider them Nathan's enemies. Not to mention they broke into my apartment without my permission. And I'm pretty sure they will not cover up the expenses for those broken glasses, plates, tables, and couches. "We better get going. The ring is not in the apartment no matter how hard we search for it." The wolf in front of me told his allies. And that was the part of his statement that made me feel at ease. Even if the two of them were already old, my wolf could barely defeat one of them if I were to insist on a battle. Thei
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
