Kelsey's POV:I leaned back in the chair and closed my eyes. With recent events, sleeping has become a luxury for my warriors and me. Thinking back to two days ago, suddenly, the massive army of the Red Forest approached the border, ready to attack us.That makes me worried; with the current thin and weak force, I have no way to face off against an army ten times my number.What surprised me equally was that the leader among them was Elise again. It was unbelievable how much time she had gone through and how she became the commander of an enormous army when Elise had never fought in any war. Her skills and endurance could not good, and her wolf is timid.But through a few battles to test each other's strengths, I discovered the problem. It turned out that Elise was just a front for Richard. Although Elise is ostensibly the commander, all power is in the hands of Keva, a Rogue under Richard he recently recruited.According to the information I have investigated, Keva is Alex's daughter
Thinking around, I almost lost focus. I quickly regained my composure, looking into the distance.There were footsteps behind me, a dry hand on my shoulder, and a worried voice. "Commander, you haven't eaten or slept all day; if you keep it up, I'm afraid I can't stand it. Before that bastard attacks us, you're already down."I smiled and looked down at Yedda, a fire smoldering under my eyes. "This war is not over; I will never give up."Yedda sighed, painfully looking at me. "You are so stubborn. Do you think your body is made of diamonds? You don't sleep; you should eat a little to regain strength."While saying that, Yedda held out a plate of grilled wild boar before me. I felt a little hungry, so I also ate a piece but couldn't sense any taste.While eating, my hand stopped, and my ear elevated.Yedda blinked at me; she asked softly. "Something happened…"Before Yedda finished her sentence, I put down my fork and motioned for her to be quiet.Soon, a series of footsteps came close
After a while of killing, the knife in my hand broke in half. I gritted my teeth, threw it aside, and transformed.In wolf form, my stamina is enhanced, and my senses also skyrocket. My movements quickly took away the enemy's life; they started to get scared and didn't dare to attack me arbitrarily like before.But no matter how fast my healing is, it's not enough during such a fierce battle. Soon my body was tattered with the smell of blood, and my white fur was speckled with red.'Lucas, please come...' I prayed silently; our only hope right now was him.While I wasn't paying attention, a gray wolf charged like an arrow with sharp teeth into my waist. I felt like I was about to break apart. He and many other wolves that saw the opportunity were flying in to tear me apart.I glanced, watching my comrades fall, trampled by them, my anger rising as strong as a tsunami.I can't; I can't die. I have to protect everyone, I have to see Brian again, and I have to clear my parents.Thinking
Drake raised his head, one of his eyes injured, leaving only one blank eye to look at me. "Command....""Don't talk." I frowned at the wound on his neck, a deep cut; still, being able to keep him alive until now is considered lucky. "I'll bandage your wound, don't worry."Drake looked at me with tears in his eyes; this look in his eyes hurt me so much. Remember that night, the boy with bright eyes looked at me, in the bottom of his eyes filled with determination as fierce as a brilliant fire, but now only his eyes are gloomy.After I bandaged Drake's wound, I helped him to an empty bed to rest. Although I had much to say, I was forced to leave to care for the other injured.Before leaving, I turned my head to Drake. "Drake, I remember your name, but not to bring bad news about your family because we won; you're a great fighter."Drake froze for a moment; then, his lip curled into a smile.Busy until evening, finally finished dealing with all the injured. In order not to make Yedda and
After packing a few essentials and food for a few days, Yedda and I got into the car and prepared to leave.Before the car rolled, I turned my head to say goodbye to Lucas. He also looked at me sadly. More than anyone else, the humans standing on the battlefield, like us, had greater fear than anyone. We are afraid that after a turn, we will never see each other again for the rest of our lives."Let's go," I told Yedda.She nodded, then turned the key. The sound of a heavy car engine sounded, and the car slowly moved.I'm lucky to have Lucas here; as long as he holds this place, Keva and Elise won't dare to attack us ultimately. Except for Aliyah, Lucas was the most muscular werewolf under Brian's command before. His name soon became famous everywhere, but only after Brian withdrew did Lucas disappear. I later learned he became Brian's scout, specializing in seizing information in dangerous places.Out of the safe range, our speed is faster. We did not choose the usual old road but fo
Along the way, I always told myself that I would see Brian again after coming here. Although the truth is always present, I always deceive myself. But now, I can no longer stand; all my hopes are shattered."Kelsey, come out and talk to me." Harvey stepped down, passing by, but I could still feel his heavy breathing.We did not stay in the command room but went out, choosing a green canopy to sit down.Harvey didn't say anything; I kept quiet."I know it will shock you, but listen, Kelsey." Harvey licked the corners of his lips, his eyes twinkling with awkwardness. "It's very likely that Brian won't be able to return this time.""You lied!" I cut off a growl. "If you keep saying things like that, I won't be polite to you.""Calm down; instead of getting angry at me, we should think and find a way," Harvey said quietly.Still unable to contain my excitement, I looked at Harvey, my chest heaving questioningly. "Why don't you send someone into the forest to find him?"Harvey sighed. "I s
The forest is murky; the night is quiet.I also couldn't stand still and be useless; I began to memorize the roads I took, marking the big trees. This action made me discover that this forest was like a giant labyrinth. I walked for a long time, so long that my legs were tired, but in the end, I just walked around in the same place.'Damn it!' I gritted my teeth, helplessly leaning against the tree stump.Unfortunately, my wound was pale again at this time, I pressed my hand against the wound to stop it from bleeding, but after a while, I felt my finger was wet. I raised my hand, and the blinding red that met my eyes became even colder.I haven't found Brian yet; I can't allow myself to fall now.I tore off my sleeve and tied my stomach, continuing to find my way.I don't know how long I've been wandering around this hellish place. This forest is haunted; it is completely isolated from the outside world. Not to mention a living being, not even the sun's rays could penetrate the dense
When I was only an arm's length away, I didn't think much of it and rushed over, hugging him tightly into the cage, burying my face in Brian's soft, warm fur. I don't know where I got the courage then, but when I think about it later, I still shudder because of that risk to my life. If Brian doesn't recognize me and continues to attack, I dare not think about the consequences. However, no matter how often I make the decision, I still trust him.Even though he doesn't remember me at the moment, Brian is being harmed by bad guys, but he doesn't have the heart to hurt me. He seemed to sense me; all his aggressive actions stopped like a stone sinking into the ocean. My ribcage doesn't stop twitching, and I burrow deeper into his fur. Suddenly I felt my face wet; I looked up and saw Brian licking my tears.He looked at me without blinking, then lowered his eyes to the wound under my stomach.Then he pinned me to the ground, gently licking my wound.A familiar, happy feeling hit my heart. I
