Marcus took a deep breath and began to explain what they had found so far, the strange claw marks and the fact that the creature looked like a hybrid. Jackson listened intently, his face slowly changing from suspicion to confusion.

"I don't know what to make of this. But I'll keep an eye on you, Marcus. Don't think I won't," he said before walking away.

Marcus watched him go before turning back to the crime scene, his mind racing with thoughts of how they could stop this creature before it killed again.

But Jackson returns and spoke again "What do you mean, like a hybrid?" Jackson asked, his gun now holstered.

"I mean, it's like a combination of different creatures. We don't know what exactly, but it's not a werewolf," Marcus replied, still studying the claw marks on the tree trunks.

Jackson nodded slowly, his brow furrowed in thought. "Well, whatever it is, we need to stop it before it kills again. And if you or your pack know anything, I expect you to tell me," he said sternly b

    As he pondered his options, he heard a knock on the door. It was Officer Jackson Hewitt, the same officer who had confronted before and inform that the killings were done by werewolves. Blake was surprised to see him again, but he tried to hide his unease. "Officer Hewitt, what brings you here again?" Blake asked. "I wanted to talk to you about those creatures," Jackson said, his expression serious. "What about them?" Blake asked, trying to sound casual. "I think I might know what they are," Jackson said, his eyes narrowing. "What do you mean?" Blake asked, his curiosity piqued. "I've encountered those creatures before," Jackson said, his voice low. "And I think I know how to stop them." Blake felt a wave of relief wash over him. Maybe he wouldn't have to use his power after all. He leaned forward, eager to hear what Jackson had to say. "What are they?" Blake asked. Jackson hesitated, as if unsure whether or not to tell Blake. “I can't say for now until you tell me what you

    Marcus sat across from Edna, studying her features. She was a fierce hunter, tough and experienced, but there was a sadness in her eyes that had been there since the night they killed Megan. "Edna, I need your help," Marcus said, breaking the silence. "We're dealing with something new, and we need to know how to kill it." Edna's eyebrows shot up. "New? What do you mean?" Marcus hesitated before telling her about the recent attacks and the strange creatures that were responsible for them. "We think they might be related to the creature you killed. Do you remember what kind of arrow you used?" Edna's eyes narrowed in thought. "It was silver," she said finally. "I pierced its heart with a silver arrow." Marcus nodded, relieved. "That's good to know. And where is the heart located?" "On the right side," Edna replied, leaning back in her chair. "Not the left, like a human." Marcus made a mental note of this information. "Thank you, Edna. This will be very helpful." Edna nodded but s

    They continued walking in silence for a few minutes before Edna spoke up again. "Marcus," she said, her voice soft. "Can I ask you something?"Marcus turned to face her, a curious look on his face. "Sure," he said.Edna hesitated for a moment before finally blurting out what was on her mind. "Do you think we're going to make it?" she asked. "I mean, do you think we'll actually be able to find everything we need in time to stop the war?"Marcus looked at her for a long moment before responding. "Honestly?" he said. "I don't know. But we have to try. We owe it to our people, to our friends, to everyone who's counting on us to end this."Edna nodded, a sense of determination settling over her. Marcus was right. They couldn't give up now, not when so much was at stake. They had to keep going, no matter what. And with that thought in mind, they set up camp for the night and settled in for a long, restless sleep.Marcus and Edna were on their way to gather ingredients for the potion that wou

    Marcus glared at him, feeling his blood boil. He couldn't believe that Derek had the audacity to come here and act like everything was okay. "You need to come clean and reveal everything to Edna," he said, his voice low and menacing. "If she decides that she wants to be with you, then she really loves you, but if not, then you need to move on. A relationship shouldn't have many secrets, or it will not last."With that, Marcus turned and walked away, leaving Derek standing alone in the middle of the woods.As he walked away, Marcus couldn't help but feel a sense of frustration and anger. He had never liked Derek, but he knew that he needed to be careful not to interfere with Edna's life. He had to trust that she knew what she was doing.He made his way to the back of the house, where he found Edna fast asleep on a grass. He couldn't help but feel a sense of tenderness towards her as he watched her sleep. He loved her deeply, but he knew that he couldn't force his feelings on her.He sat

    As Derek passed by him, Marcus spoke up, his voice low and controlled. "Why did you force your feelings on her when you know she is confused about who she likes?" he asked, his eyes narrowing. Derek turned to face him, his expression hardening. "I didn't force her, Marcus. She was the one who started to make a move by kissing me," he said, his voice defensive. Marcus felt a surge of anger rise within him. "You guys have kissed? What else have you guys done, huh?" he asked, his voice rising. Derek's eyes narrowed, and he stepped closer to Marcus. "It's none of your business, Marcus. Edna and I have a relationship, and we'll figure things out on our own," he said, his voice firm. As he sat there lost in thought, he couldn't help but wonder if he would ever be able to find someone who could fill the void that Edna had left behind. He had loved her for so long, and the thought of being with someone else seemed impossible. But he knew that he couldn't hold on to the past forever. He ha

She didn't like how things were awkward between them.She decided to confront him about it, hoping to clear the air and move forward with their mission."Marcus, can we talk for a minute?"

I can't help but feel like things are awkward between us now that you know about me and Derek," Edna said, her v

    Edna felt tears prick at the corners of her eyes as she struggled to control her emotions. She couldn't believe that everyone had been keeping such a big secret from her."But why did Derek do this?" she asked, turning back to Victoria.Victoria shrugged. "I don't really know," she said. "All I know is that he's dangerous, and you need to stay away from him." “You getting involved with him would only lead you to your death just like your parents." She said.Edna felt a sense of confusion and betrayal wash over her as she struggled to come to terms with everything she had just learned.

    As Edna left the room, Derek couldn't help but feel like he had messed everything up. He paced back and forth, his mind racing with thoughts of Edna.“Why did I have to be so stupid?" he muttered to himself. "She's never going to want to see me again after this." He sighed heavily and ran his hand through his hair. Marcus felt terrible about keeping such a big secret from Edna. He couldn't believe that he had been keeping the truth from her for so long. He walked down the hall to Derek's room, feeling like he had to get this off his chest. As he entered the room, he could see the anger in Derek's eyes. "What the hell, man? Why did you tell her?" Derek spat at him."I didn't tell her," Marcus replied, holding his hands up defensively. "It was Victoria." Derek's face softened a bit as he realized it wasn't Marcus who had spilled the secret. "Oh, I see," he said, running a hand through his hair. "I still can't believe this is all happening. I don't know what to do." Marcus put a hand
