Clara The thing that I’ve been scared of is slowly coming to life. I knew they didn’t stop sending their troops because they suddenly decided to end the battle. But because they were preparing to throw us something bigger…something to make sure we will never recover. “Alpha, what do we do?” “You know what to do! Block their way. Make sure they never step anywhere near the pack’s border.” The hallway was slowly filled by continuous murmur of worry and fear from the members. All of them were in panic to hear that the enemies were again coming at us. “There’s no way to block them, Alpha. The walls have been breached. Most of our warriors were hurt,” Beta heavily sighed. “We can’t stop them.” “We’re going to die!” “Let’s get out of here and leave!” “Right! We just can’t stand here and wait for our death!” `Everyone’s loud and shrill voices were clashing against each other. I placed my palms over my ears, my eyes locked, staring at my feet and my mind blank. “No one’s leaving! Ev
Clara My eyes were heavy, my entire body aching so bad, screaming for sleep. But I wouldn’t because I couldn’t. Not until I’ve found out how to alter the poison they’ve infected into our people. And now that Samuel was in a coma because of that poison, my mind was restless.
Samuel“I’ll be fine,” was the last thing Clara mumbled, nodding, leaving me with no other options but to watch her leave. She’s born stubborn, and right now she’s gone too stubborn for me to handle. Hence I cannot just blame her because she’s not doing this for herself but rather for a greater good. What can I do if helping others has been her responsibility regardless if her life would be at stake. In order to keep myself occupied and somewhat do something great, I followed her instructions. Upon arriving at the area she said where the enemies had broken in, about a dozen of warriors were down. They all have huge and deep claw marks from their faces down to their lower abdomen. They were cut open to make sure none of these men would make it out alive. I’ve been in tons of wars already. Death isn’t and won’t ever be inevitable. But seeing how they died made my chest twitch with a bit of guilt and regret. The blood spilled on the ground looked fresh—as if it happened just seco
Clara “I’ll be fine,” I mumbled, nodding, hoping to convince Samuel to leave. I know the look he had on his face—the same look he had the time he needed to carry me in his arms with an arrow pierced on my chest.
Samuel “Yes. That’s everything we know that you need to know.” “We know this pack,” hearing those words from the Luna made my brows arched.
Clara“For the last time, Clara, I am telling you,” Samuel blew out a sigh as he continued to nag. “Just shift so I can hop on your back.” I blabber in return. Seeing I won’t listen to him anyway, he then shapeshifted, I hop onto his back, attaching a bag behind me that contains the potions and medicine I created. It was crystal clear to me that building an alliance with other packs and getting them to trust us is not going to be easy, that’s why I came prepared. No one would risk trusting us if we cannot give anything in return. After all, everyone wants something. If we can offer them a reasonable deal; such as providing for anything they want, given that we’ll be able to provide it in exchange for their help, then I don’t see any problem why Samuel’s plan wouldn’t work. “Come on. Let’s not waste any more second, shall we?” I groaned, looking down at Samuel who remained standing on his feet. “You need to promise me.” “Promise you what—”“That you will listen to me.” Clickin
