Dad laughed at my joke and told me they were just having a silly, normal conversation as a husband and wife. I shrugged it off. Maybe I was just overthinking.

I asked my mom for my photo albums before Fenris and I came back into my room. We laughed and shared foolish jokes while we were scanning my old pictures; a good old memory.

"You don't have a picture of you when you were just a little dog?" I playfully asked.

He glared at me. "There were still no cameras when I was a baby. It was centuries ago, Kira. Besides, werewolves still aren't allowed to take photos unless they're in their human forms."

I nodded as we talked more about our childhood memories. This has been the longest conversation we had so far and I've never been so happy.

After scanning all the old albums, we decided to lay on the bed to get some rest.

"You sure, you're okay with us sleeping in the same room and bed?" I asked, getting conscious while our arms were touching each other. My bed was smaller compared to the o

    Fenris woke me up, tapping my shoulder. I puffed a breath still feeling the heaviness of my eyes while feeling the sunlight flashing on my face. "Come on, breakfast is ready. Your parents are waiting for us in the dining." "Five minutes more, please." I yawned. "I'm still sleepy." "You're always sleepy, Kira." He pinched my cheeks. "Come on! We need to get going. We're gonna have a long drive again back to California. I'm avoiding delays." I frowned while he continued squeezing my cheeks like I was some kind of a teddy bear to him. I slapped his hands on my face. He chuckled. "Gather yourself. Make it fast." He pulled my wrist making me sit on the bed. I gasped. "You always ruin my wonderful sleep, you know that?" I rolled my eyes before massaging it. "I know." He rolled his eyes. "It's not my fault that you're a sleepy kid. Besides, I'm also training you to be present right on time. Werewolves are time discipline; you should practice that thing." I mocked him while I started

    "Do I?" He threw multiple blows on me and I did my best to defend myself but damn I was getting tired, nearly losing my breath yet he still wasn't stopping. His movements were like an air that was so hard to avoid yet I managed to until I was breathless, his fist landed on my thigh. I arched in pain. "Fuck." I hissed massaging my leg. "Now who talks too much?" The side of his lips rose. I glared at him more. "Still you." I threw quick blows in returns that he all managed to avoid. I was getting tired, I must admit, while he was still looking composed and firm. I gasped, feeling the exhaustion in my nerves. My chest exploded that lightning travelled through my fist 'till it landed so hard on his stomach, that his body bounced backwards from me. The force was too strong that he almost fell on the lawn yet he managed to bounce his feet back from standing firm. My lips parted as I look at my fist. Unbelievable. I didn't know I have that kind of strong force inside me. I felt it comin

    I rolled over in bed as I moaned silently while hugging the pillow on my face. My eyes were still closed yet I managed to smile, remembering my dream. My good, sweet dream was somehow blurry but I could remember dating a hot, topless guy. It was actually resembling Fenris' body.I gasped, feeling myself finally fully recharged; at last, I think I completed eight hours of sleep. I opened my eyes, welcoming the bright sunlight on my face through the window. I let my yawn fill the room. I sat on the bed, stretching my arms. I could feel like the day was gonna be a great day. I was about to stand with my feet landed on the floor when I froze as my eyes caught Fenris standing in the corner of my room with his back on the wall and his hands in his pockets."Goodness!" I puffed a breath, calming my shocked chest. "How long have you been standing there?" I asked.He remained quiet as his eyes looked down on my thigh part. I then realized I wasn't wearing any shorts, only panties."What the--

    "I have no idea." My feet were still trembling as I tried to find an answer but I couldn't. All I knew was he stopped moving and that was it.He walked back towards me with glaring eyes he almost imprisoned my shoulders again but I bowed my head to avoid his huge hands then I moved my back away from the wall 'till I was already standing behind him.He turned his gaze at me with brows crossed. "Now you're trying to impress me," he said sarcastically."I'm not, but I'm glad you're impressed." I puffed a breath, finally gathering my power to speak back. "Barely." He rolled his eyes.I rolled mine too. "Why are you acting strange anyway? I mean clearly, you almost killed me with your hands.""Why do you think huh? Clearly, you're not learning your lessons; always late, always irresponsible, always nosy around--- stubborn," he groaned. "You need to know when to act like a child and when to act like a Goddamn responsible werewolf!" His fingers stroke his messy hair. "You're gonna die early

    On our whole drive to school, Gonzalo kept on asking me if I was hiding something from them. I kept on saying no. I was clueless about what was going on as they were."You better be not hiding something from us." His voice sounded like a threat after he stopped the car in the school parking lot.I gasped. "What am I gonna hide anyway? My life was ordinary until you guys came." I rolled my eyes unbuckling my seatbelt."Okay then." He shrugged. "Enjoy your school, little kid." He tapped my head like I was a dog.I glared at him. "I'm not a little kid.""Yes, you are. We're centuries older than you." He chuckled.I just mocked him before getting out of the car. While I was walking in the hallway towards my first class, Nazarus bumped his shoulder onto mine before he wrapped his arm around my shoulders."What's up?" He smiled.I was still thinking about the car that froze a while ago but I just shrugged. "Nothing much.""Got a new driver?" he asked.I looked back at the parking lot where

    I was so conscious while eating pasta as I could feel Gonzalo and Fenris watching me like I was some kind of television. I looked at Fenris and he avoided my gaze, pretending he wasn't staring. I rolled my eyes before looking at Gonzalo who raised his right brow at me with a smirk on his lips.I looked back at my finally emptied plate. I sipped on my wine, wondering about the Shadow Ripper and all the weird, creepy stuff I heard while gossiping a while ago."Who cooked the pasta? You?" I asked Gonzalo to ease the loud silence."Yeah. It's good, isn't it?" "Don't take the credits from me." Fenris rolled his eyes. "I cooked that."Gonzalo playfully chuckled. "I'm trying to impress her. Why ruin it?" "She's my fiancé. You shouldn't impress what's mine." Fenris glanced at me.My face heated. I looked down, hiding my burning cheeks. For sure, they were blushing red as I could feel my face almost like exploding.Gonzalo laughed teasingly. "Oh, she's blushing. Congrats, you impressed her."

    I thought we were already right outside his territory but when we got out of the plane, I realized we were in the airport; tons of people with thick jackets were walking around, holding their own luggage.I looked at Fenris. "Are they all werewolves?" He shook his head. "We usually blend in with humans." He tapped my head like a dog. "Come on, our helicopter is over there." My lips parted. I thought we were just gonna ride in a van or car on the way to his den. It was slowly sinking into me how rich and big-time my soon-to-be husband is, for real. It made my nerves more nervous as most rich families hate to have a deep connection with average families like mine.I hugged my shoulder as we walked toward the helicopter. The coldness could freeze me with the gloomy surrounding and some formed ice around the corners. I had a love and hate relationship with the winter seasons.My nervousness somehow ease when I saw the helicopter. It wasn't every time that I could have a chance to hop in

    My lips were parted throughout as Fenris toured me around their mansion. I couldn't stop looking up at the high ceiling and around the corners with every huge room door.He explained to me some important rooms that I shouldn't dare to open and some rooms that were owned specifically by his family.A sigh of relief escaped from my mouth as he mentioned his mother wasn't around. As much as I wanted to be ready, I couldn't stop myself from getting intimidated by all the shiny things I was witnessing. I was anxious, afraid to be belittled by his mom. I was hoping that wouldn't be the case."This is amazing." My eyes glittered at Fenris as we continued roaming around. "I mean, this is much bigger than your mansion in California."Fenris just smiled at me. He looked patient now compared to his face way back in my country."There are so many rooms." I touched the silky door that we passed by. "Your family members must be so many."He shrugged. "It's not only my family members that live here.

    I swallowed deeply after seeing some backpacks and winter clothes that they had prepared for us. My mind was roaring everywhere, and I couldn't even sink in the information Guardian Leo was saying to me.My chest was thudding so loud, and all I could think of was I wasn't ready. I didn't expect everything to happen this quick.We rode horses to travel the cold land, and I couldn't stop glancing at Fenris every time I would think of backing up. I sighed deeply and tried gathering courage from I didn't even know where I could actually get one. Perhaps, the look of Fenris reassuring me was enough.We arrived at the strange mountain ranges, and from there, we teleported to the icy plateau on top of the hill. My hands were trembling under my gloves. Fenris held me while we were looking around the place, examining the surroundings."I don't understand," I muttered. "I can't see anything but icy mountains. Where could be the location of Darkesta's territory?"I hugged myself when the strong

    What happened that night was still hunting me to this day — it had been two weeks and up until now, we were still thinking of the purpose of why Darkesta's little dogs suddenly attacked us."Claude is dead."When Fenris brought me that news, I was stunned. I thought I would be happy to hear those words but then again, I remembered he was once my friend. Even though it wasn't really for him, it was real for me and Lilien."They decided to kill him after he almost successfully transformed himself into his wolf form," he added.I sipped on my cup of coffee while my heart was still feeling unsafe. Darkesta was not only the devil, he was intelligent and whatever he was plotting against us could be the real end of our kind. I was just so frightened by that thought."What about Vilka? Do you believe her?" I asked before sipping on my coffee again.Vilka explained to us why she suddenly disappeared from the mansion a minute after our soldiers had traced foot tracks of Dark Summoners. She said

    My jaw tightened as my claws gripped tighter on the ground. I stepped back, lowering my body while gazing at the three creepy humanoid wolves. They were standing on their two legs, and it made them look more monstrous. I prepared myself for a possible attack."Calm down!" The humanoid wolves were almost laughing in my ears. I didn't know they could talk to us through the mind link. "You seem to be too threatened to us. Don't make it so obvious, I suggest." The humanoid wolf in the middle kept blubbering, sounding so boastful.I glared at them deeper as I hissed. Fenris was looking much more eager. I could even hear his blood boiling so hard.Fenris howled. "What do you want from us?!" He also spoke through mind-link. The humanoid wolf on the left side chuckled like a playful yet annoying child. "You know what we want. "We will never surrender to your greedy master, you asshole!" Fenris fired back while he was scratching his pointed claws on the ground with his sharp teeth showing.

    My heart thundered as Fenris' eyes and mine met. "Stay here," he commanded."What? No—" He got out of the room without letting me finish my words. I gulped before I rushed to follow him downstairs. Noises were coming from outside the mansion and when we finally exited the house, I saw some soldiers talking and discussing some things. In contrast, others were spread around the huge house, they were anticipating something, and my heart was thudding continuously for what could be it."What the hell is going on?!" Fenris exclaimed, and finally, he caught the soldiers' attention."We saw tracks of Dark Summoners leading to this place—""I know, but did you see them? How the hell did they get here without anyone sensing them?"Strange. Even I didn't sense the unwelcomed scent of humanoid wolves. "Alpha Fenris, I checked Vilka in her room, but she isn't there." A maid approached him."What?! What does she have to do with any of this? Are you sure she didn't sleep in her own house?"The mai

    I swallowed deeply, convincing myself they were nothing but friends just like me and Nazarus — come on!"Yes, my cousins are regaining their strengths, thankfully."I cleared my throat before I stood properly and composed myself. My elbows hit some leaves, and I immediately noticed how quickly their eyes turned into me. "Oh, Kira!" Atasha chuckled awkwardly. "My cousins would want to give you and your mother this." She handed me two necklaces with a fang pendant."Really?" I still couldn't figure out how to interact with her. I never wanted to be fake or plastic or whatever they call it. "Yes, they've been planning to come here, but they are still regenerating their strengths — maybe next week they could thank you personally.""Oh, that's nice." I grabbed the necklaces from her soft hand. "Tell your cousins not to worry, and we appreciate their gifts and their gratitude." I glanced at Fenris, and he slightly smiled at me. My lips just thinned.I wanted to ask what they were talking

    We arrived in the woods right on time while the Sun was about to rise. Good thing, the soldiers arrived earlier than us. They seemed responsible and dedicated to their tasks. We stayed near the river for a couple of hours. Fenris had been discussing something with the soldiers. They were plotting a plan while I was on the lookout for the busy group. Surprisingly, no Dark Summoners attempted to attack us. I was quite anticipating the action now, but perhaps it really was better for them not to attack or anything. The damage they could cause was too much, for sure.Since we saw no sign of attack, Fenris and I decided to go back to the mansion. He instructed the leader to inform us once anything unfortunate occurred. While we walked our way back to our house, the soldiers stayed in the woods as it was one of their duty — to guard and observe the forest.The next day was a really bad day for me. I work up without Fenris on my side. Since my body was so heavy and even my eyes, I didn't no

    Nazarus just shrugged and started walking to the exit of the mansion. He looked back at me and gestured to me to follow him. I rolled my eyes before walking. I watched Nazarus back while walking. It was only at that time I noticed how neat and elegant he walked. Every step of him was really careful — I laughed at the thought of why we waste our time walking if we could just teleport. Fenris's deep gaze met mine when we reached the gate. "What did you do?* His brows crossed at Nazarus.I snaked my arm over Fenris' arm. "Where are we going?" I asked.Fenris remained to stare at Naz. Naz laughed and shook his head. "Chill! I went to the restroom and walked past her in the living room.""Where are we going, Fenris?" I asked again.Fenris finally looked at me. "You'll see."I rolled my eyes before looking at Nazarus. "Where are we going, Naz?""You'll see." He mocked Fenris.Fuck them!I crossed my arms over my chest and just followed them. We walked for a few minutes until we reached M

    Slowly, the estranged man opened his eyes and quickly met mine. "You're gonna die… you're all going to die…." His huge black pupils trembled on my chest. I took a deep breath as my chest tightened.Fenris kicked the man before he stepped on his chest. "Don't listen to him." He tightened the grip of his feet on the man's chest, stiffening the Dark Summoners' human body."What do you want from us, huh?!"The man smiled strangely and slowly, he chuckled like a devil. "You're all gonna die…." He breathed out before coughing after Fenris squeezed his chest more with his feet."Fuck you! You're the one who's going to die today." Fenris grabbed his dagger and sliced the Dark Summoner's head off. I flinched and stepped back as the blood splashed everywhere. I covered my mouth. I was used to seeing brutality, but I couldn't still stop to be shocked at times."Why did you kill him? We could get information—""Do you think he will say something?" Fenris cut me off. "Think of him as Claude. He wi

    Fenris raised his right brow. "You're talking about me?" "Oh, it's not important." Nazarus shrugged his hand. "Don't think too much about it."My lips thinned when Fenris glared at me. "What?" I arched a brow. "I just told him you don't like plucking the flowers in the garden."Fenris looked at the flower in my hand. I thought he was going to get it to me, but he just turned his gaze back at Fenris."What it is with the flowers that you're always giving to my wife, huh?"Nazarus raised both of his hands as if surrendering. "Just a nice gesture, calm down.""Nice gesture." Fenris scoffed. "Bullshit.""Fenris." I cleared my throat."Anyway, Fenris," Nazarus uttered. "It's perfect timing that you're here. I have to discuss something with you."Fenris' brows crossed, and so mine."About what?"Nazarus glanced at the mansion. "Can we talk inside?""Why? Can't you discuss that here?" Fenris sounded more disgusted yet intrigued.Naz looked around. "You won't wanna risk someone hearing our
