3: CONFESSION

Two weeks have passed, Letitia has been thinking whether she will escape or not from Arther. She heard rumors about him that he is the most dangerous wolf among wolves in the forest, hearing on what the maid has said to her is very alarming for her.

She knew that the forest she's staying was protected by the moon goddess and that whoever will try to enter the forest can’t escape, unless a werewolf will help them. The forest was covered by a magical mist for the werewolves be protected by humans. It is a very large forest that ruled by King Alpha with three noble packs that are loyal to the King Alpha. One is the King Alpha's sword, one is King Alpha's shield and one is his guardians.

Letitia just deeply sigh and sit on the chair. "My life is getting harder everyday," she murmured to herself and touches her forehead.

"Why you say so, miss Letitia?" a woman the same age as her suddenly appeared from the window smiling at her. Letitia was startled after she appeared behind her.

"Noelle!" Letitia shouts making Noelle giggled. She is the maid that Arther give to her to help her from anything. Only her, Scott and Arther knows that she was staying at the Cruel Claws pack territory. In just a day, Noelle started to like Letitia because of her characteristics as well as her beautiful face.

"I miss you, miss Letitia!" Noelle exclaimed and hug Letitia in the neck which made her eyes widen.

"I already told you to just call me by my name," Letitia said glancing on Noelle behind her. Noelle free her from her hug and head inside the room from the window. Letitia has been staying in a small house made of wood away from the village where Arther's people has staying.

Arther's pack was belong to the forest of Rasleton where in the whole forest there live three strongest packs. The currently King Alpha of Rasleton forest was Daelous Rasleton, a former crown prince but since his father died he took the crown and the throne. He live with his mate, Queen Tiana but they not bore any child. All people in the Rasleton knew that King Alpha doesn't have any affection towards his queen.

"I don't wanna," Noelle replied and leaned her back from the wall. "Anyway, I am still confused why Alpha Arther wanted to stay you here. Your beautiful face and heart is not a valid reason for letting you to stay here, I wonder?" Noelle added and crossed her arms.

"I-I don't know either," Letitia replied and looks at the ground. She suddenly shivers and speaks. "I am kinda afraid to your Alpha. His eyes were scary and also that Scott person, brr."

Noelle just laugh at her which made Letitia looks at her annoyingly. "The Alpha won't kill you, seeing you in a whole body and even giving you a maid is a sign that you're important to him," Noelle said. Letitia just let out a heavy sigh.

"Anyways, are you hungry? I'll bring your lunch here," Noelle added and ready to get out again through the window when she suddenly felt someone was coming towards the small house.

"Why?" Letitia ask her confusedly and walk closer to Noelle but Noelle grabs her hand to escape from the small house which made Letitia's forehead knitted in confusion.

"Ride on my back quickly, miss Letitia," Noelle said and immediately transform herself into a wolf which made Letitia surprised. Noelle move her head giving a sign to Letitia to ride on her back that Letitia followed her immediately.

They are now running at the forest to go to Alpha Arther to ask for help. Noelle alone cannot defeat the five wolves that were following them especially that she's only a mere maid, she knew that the wolves who followed them belong to the other pack in the Rasleton forest. They might knew that a human was staying in their forest which is forbidden.

Letitia turned around and saw the five wolves staring at her. Their eyes scared her, so she just looked in their path and shook her head. Noelle just kept running until a wolf appeared in front of them and quickly transformed into a human. He kicks Noelle, causing them to fall to the ground.

"Ughh," Letitia moaned in pain and touched her head when it collided with a tree. She was surprised to see blood on her hand after touching her head. The man in front of them was holding Noelle's neck, making it difficult for her to breathe. "Noelle!" Letitia exclaims.

Alpha Arther, on the other hand, he was looking at the papers in frong of him when he suddenly heard Letitia's voice and turned around. "What happened, Alpha?" Scott asked when he noticed his Alpha was not looking at the papers in front of him. He dashed to the location where he heard Letitia's voice and left Scott alone.

The man threw Noelle to the ground with strong force and dashed towards Letitia, holding her neck and making it difficult for her to breathe. "What are you doing here, human?" his thick and frightening voice made Letitia shiver. She noticed his eyes locked on her. She wanted to say something, but she couldn't because the man was clutching her neck tightly.

Noelle had already noticed Letitia's body slowly turning violet. She wanted to stand up, but she didn't have any energy left in her body, and she noticed Letitia's tears dripping down her cheeks. Fortunately, Arther quickly kicks the guy after noticing Letitia's body floating. The man was pushed away from the area, and Arther moved quickly toward Letitia when he saw her fainted and fell to the ground. He also saw the blood on her head which made her furious but still controling his anger.

He carried her in his arms. When someone suddenly claps his hand, he moves his gaze to his back. It was Beta Arson from the other pack, the Imperial Howlers, whose pack was King Alpha Daelous' shield. Their pack was full of powerful werewolves, but no one could match the members of the Cruel Claws pack, which was led by Alpha Arther.

"I wonder why you keep that tiny human here, Alpha Arther?" Beta Arson asks, looking at the unconscious Letitia. "You know it's forbidden to bring humans here at Rasleton–," Beta Arson was about to say again when Alpha Arther cut him off.

"She's my mate, and if you dare to touch her again, I won't hesitate to k*ll all of you! Even you dare to step foot on my territory!" The entire place could hear Arther's terrifying voice. When he became enraged, their body hair rose as they sensed its scary and dark aura. Her dark purple eyes terrified them, and none of them dared to move for fear of having their heads severed in an instant.

All werewolf in that place was surprise after they learn that one of the werewolves, a ferocious and strong werewolf has mated with a human, a mere human.
