[That man's POV]

"Where are you going now?" Emily asked her Gran as she watched her go out in the evening. She had gotten tired and came from the police station a while ago, and was sitting on the sofa eating peanuts. Her hair was blonde like the sky at sunset when you're out in the fields, and she was wearing dark jeans and a light green turtleneck that matched her eyes. Seeing her grandmother suddenly getting ready to go somewhere, she asked. Her eyes weren't focusing on the TV, and she ate peanut shells with one hand.

"It's just very important work that I have to finish, which I'm going to get done," Ms. Anastasia said, quickly putting on her sweater and urging her to close the door before leaving.

"Well, I will keep it closed, but where are you going?" She repeated her question and almost walked behind her.

"Saintmau," Ms. Anastasia replied.

"Shall I go with you?" she suddenly asked Ms. Anastasia.

"No, there is no need. Sit here comfortably and close the door well. I'm not a 17-ye

    [That man's POV]She was looking at the window while holding her breath and without blinking. It was not a human but a shadow of a wolf. A werewolf. The moon was bright enough to show the outline, and she could see all its fangs. It was standing up on its hind legs to get closer to the glass. And its eyes... its eyes were red and bloodshot, but they glinted in the light, like stars.No, like blood, like red blood pumping through a vein as fast as it can. Blood doesn't glow in the dark or reflect the light when it hits water, so the wolf was probably lying about being a werewolf and not just drunk from the nearest stream. Her heart was beating so loudly she wondered if she could hear it through the wall.Due to fear and dread, her condition started to deteriorate. The drops of sweat on her forehead started shining like white pearls. She had been holding her breath for some time now. Her lungs burned from holding back too much air, and it was getting difficult to inhale deeply. She was

    [That man's POV]After leaving the police station, she went straight to the hospital. She knew that she didn't have a common cold, and no one could treat her. Maybe she didn't want to tell anyone what was happening to her, but she still wanted to get checked by the doctor for her comfort. Finally, what she had feared happened; she didn't have a common cold."Why are you following me?" Esen asked angrily, to Altan who, in his worry and tension, had followed her from the police station to the hospital and now home."Because you need me, and these doctors can't treat you," Altan replied."I don't need you, Altan. Get the hell out of here!" She got angry and slammed the door shut on his face."All right, I'm sitting here outside the door. If you need anything, just tell me. Don't suffer alone like this," he said politely in a voice that made his tone more soothing and compassionate. His black eyes, framed by thick black lashes, were filled with a kind of warmth."Have you ever felt your h

    [That man's POV]In the darkness of the night, Emily's grandmother, Ms. Anastasia, slowly takes her steps and enters the confines of Saintmau without caring for her life. She knows that the way back from here is very difficult and may be impossible, but to protect her granddaughter, she could step into Saintmau a thousand times. She could have risked her life a thousand times to save her from the werewolf.She was treading carefully through the streets of Saintmau in the moonlight, lest she step on the grave of a Vargulf werewolf who haunted the town at night.The stories of the Vargulf had been passed down for generations, and while some dismissed them as mere superstition, others believed in their existence. She had heard in the stories that the witches of Saintmau had died and the Vargulf werewolves had been trapped beneath the soil. Their bodies twisted and contorted into grotesque forms.They had been cursed by True Alpha Alparic, who sought to punish them for their wicked deeds.

    [The man's POV]Esen was sleeping with her head on Altan's lap for a long time. He had been awake for over three hours, and yet he didn't wake her up. She slept with her hair loose in front of her face. The strands of hair were the only thing standing between him and a pair of her closed eyes. She looked like one of those pictures of women from the late 1920s. Altan carried her up in his arms and laid her on her bed. Her long dark hair was tousled from where it had been tossed off of his shoulder by her unconscious body.Her skin was almost always a deep olive color, but tonight her rosy cheeks stood out even more than usual. His eyes softened at the sight of her soft lips and closed eyelashes. He took off her shoes and saw that the bottom part of her feet had become black and hard. There is a thick layer of white wolf hair on her feet and legs, which she cut down with scissors. He smiled at her because of this act and softly kissed her feet. While kissing her, he paused for a moment

    [That man's POV]Ms. Anastasia didn't know what Reaper Swithin's enmity was with that man he was calling "Lowell,'' or who he was. She didn't know if he had come to save her or to take his own revenge. The only thing running through her mind at the moment was the book "Exorcism: Eldritch Werewolves," for which she had come here. In it, the Witch Rosaline had written all the methods and magic spells of how a human can be turned into a werewolf through rituals like bloodletting and werewolves' balls.She had included illustrations of these techniques. There were pictures of people who had been transformed into wolves in this book, and for those magic spells and rituals, she had to get her book at any cost - for a price. The price was life, or rather, freedom from werewolves.Witch Rosaline is the head of the Witch Obaven Circle of Nightshade, who has taken shelter in a Dark Shadow Coven after the War of Dark. The witches were defeated, and many died, forcing them to live out in the open

    [That man's POV]The sky is clear blue. The stars are all dead. And the sun shines on a world of white sand, black rocks, blue birds, yellow flowers, green trees, and people who have never seen anything as beautiful. Esen and Altan are walking at a distance from each other. They are not close, but they are not far apart."Believe it or not, only I can walk with you in the journey of life," Esen looks back at him at his words, his head tilted up and he is looking in the sky, trying to find that one particular star - the North Star.It is an expression so simple, yet it speaks volumes about his emotions in that moment. He was sad, confused, angry, and worried. But he was also content with everything that was happening around him.The journey from Tergersaintne Territory to her house was made by both of them in silence. Both had a lot on their minds and were unwilling to speak more about it. His eyes were turning red due to intense crying in the cave.All the way, Altan was looking for

Emily cried and hugged her grandmother.Ms. Anastasia's hands were on her shoulders, yet she embraced Emily fiercely. Emily buried her face into the warmth of her grandmother’s bosom as her tears wetted her sweater and the smell of cinnamon and cloves filled her nose. She didn't mind though.Her embrace was just like a warm blanket after a cold winter. "Hush, hush little girl.

    [That man's POV]"Why did you come home early today? It's only 12 o'clock in the afternoon, usually you come at 5 o'clock," Ms. Anastasia asked worriedly about her coming home early today, while she was standing ready to go somewhere."Early, yes. Lowell is coming for dinner today, that's why. I told you in the morning. It seems old age is taking its toll on you, Gran. You are starting to forget things now," she smiled and looked at her grandmother from head to toe."Where are you going now and how is your health?" She placed some shopping bags from her hands on the table and started checking her temperature by placing the backside of her hand on her forehead. "And of course, you didn't get your sleep, right?" she asked angrily. "How many times have I told you that…""That I am 70 years old and not 17 years old," Ms. Anastasia answered, interrupting her.

    [Author's POV]She stood up, holding her injured arm, and slowly limped along the path which leads upwards. The walls were covered with small scratches and scrapes as she climbed the steep path up to the opening of the hole. She looked up at the top of the rocks towering over her. They were dark grey, and looked smooth like marble. They sparkled under the light, like the scales of some strange beast she’d seen once in a book. But unlike any beast she’d ever seen or even read about, there was nothing alive behind these cliffs. There is nothing to be afraid of.She looked down and saw that the trail leading up to the hole was covered in sand and stones. It led straight up to the top, but there was nowhere near enough room for a large animal like the Stalagtor to go through. The tunnel curved sharply to the right before turning around the corner. The tunnel was much smaller than the one she was used to climbing, but somehow she was sure that she knew exactly what she was heading towar

    [Elara's POV]I continued coughing violently until my throat hurt, and I couldn’t even feel my legs anymore. Tears blurred my vision as I stumbled blindly along the cold tunnel. When I reached the end of the passageway, I collapsed onto the ground, still coughing uncontrollably. After a few moments, my breathing began to slow, and I rested my head against the cold floor. Stalagtor was nowhere to be seen. I lay there for a few more minutes before finally deciding that moving wasn’t an option. Even if I could stand on my own two feet now, I knew I wouldn’t make it to any place safe. I had run out of energy hours ago, when all my body wanted to do was collapse in relief. The only thing keeping me going right now was the faint hope of survival.I stood up and walked towards the edge, where I saw a huge sculpture of my face cemented in the water, stuck in place like a dead fish. Frowning, I knelt down and tried to touch the water slowly, but it kept slipping through my fingers. The water s

    [Elara's POV][Lost her memory of past few days]I backed away as the creature launched its attack. Clutching the sword from the temple, I struck at it, but the blade passed through its misty fog as if it were nothing. I knew it wasn’t my mother. The Echo Wraith always appeared as a familiar face—a loved one, a long-lost friend, or a figure from the victim’s past—only to grotesquely distort and morph into a disturbing mask of anguish or malevolence. The expressions on its face are exaggerated and twisted, reflecting the lies and deceit it preys upon. One moment it might seem sorrowful, and the next, it could sneer with malevolence. Its misty form occasionally shimmers with an eerie glow that highlights its undulating contours and shifting visage, creating an unsettling contrast with the surroundings.The Echo Wraith’s movements are eerily silent and fluid, and its presence brings a numbing cold that enhances the sense of an entity from beyond, making its touch feel like the icy grip o

Bishop Eloise watched carefully, moving her eyes around as if she were going to steal something, but she did not see anyone.She took a cold breath and instructed Elf Trixie to lay Pawn Clara down in the shade, as her body burned in the sun. It wasn't just her hands or arms; the entire rest of her was on fire. She could feel it burning through every cell that made up her body – inside and out.Bishop Eloise bends down and starts running her fingers through the dirt to pick the locket up. She quickly picks it up and moves towards Pawn Clara, cleaning the dirt off it. But she is surprised to see Rook Theia and Gobi Zalika from behind the tree.Elf Trixie first glances at the two of them and then glances at Pawn Clara. Blisters are forming due to burns on her body."It's okay, just relax. You're all right," said Elf Trixie, trying to calm Pawn Clara.Pawn Clara was not responding;

    [That man's POV]It took a long time for the Gravefur Pack to reach Markkhstan Dari, as the town was quite far from the forest, and the entire pack had to be carried along. But they made it there with barely any problems, as if nothing terrible had happened while they were out there trying to find their pack mates.They arrived at the town with little fuss. The townspeople were still shocked over what had happened, but they managed to keep their shock hidden. Because this was the second time a werewolf had stepped into that place, no one wanted to see this happen again.As soon as they reached Markkhstan Dari, they spread all around. They did not know how their pack mates were doing or what their condition was.The smell of the town was a little strange this time, it was the same energy that Alpha Altan had felt in the pack house a few days back. It looked like they had found a strange new land.“This place is weird,” says Ultima Wolf Drik. “I’ve been here before. It smelled good, but

    [That man's POV]Hearing the chirping of birds, it is time for the moon to go back to sleep in the sky where they belong. The sun has just set, and the light of dawn is beginning to illuminate the land from a distance. But today, it doesn't feel peaceful as usual; no one knows what news this day's sun is bringing. No one knows for whom this sun will be the cause of victory and for whom it will be the cause of defeat.A group of people gathered under the cover of trees in front of Dark Shadow Coven. It was Strigoi who had come to get their revenge. They had already waited a long time. One by one, they took out their weapons; some were armed with swords and knives, while others were holding sharpened stakes. Their expressionless faces showed no sign of emotion or mercy.Some were dressed in the dark robes of the vampires. Most of them carried a bow, a quiver full of arrows, and a dagger for each hand and they all stood ready to do battle. They were prepared and ready for the war.The St

    [That man's POV]"Where is Gamma Kai?" Alpha Altan questioned Alpha Lowell with a roar of anger. In search of him, they were dispersed in two places: some wolves went to the city where he used to live, and some were looking for him in the Nagosia forest. But halfway, they saw the Vanara Pack, which was coming to attack them."Calm down, calm down," Alpha Lowell said to Alpha Altan with a sarcastic smile."You need to get ready for battle before we start it off. We have to take their numbers into consideration," Alpha Altan growled, his teeth bared and bloodlust evident on his face.Alpha Lowell continued to provoke him without missing a beat; he wanted to take revenge for the condition of Howl Wolf Thor, for the blood of Triple Changer Oz, and Theta Wolf Azeil.But Alpha Altan had no time for all this; he needed to find Gamma Kai. He needed to make sure that he was safe, that he was alive, that he wasn't hurt.But one thing still confused him: if Vanara Pack is here for the fight, th

Silver lake with diamond ore looked so beautiful in the morning, and the rays of the sun falling on diamond ore under the silver water made it as if everything was covered in glittering stars.In the winter, when snow and ice were still here, it looked like a diamond trapped inside a glass jar. There were many wildflowers growing around the silver lake.The town was small but charming with small houses like huts made of transparent colorful stones and green trees surrounding them. Everything seemed to be glowing under the golden light. It was as if the whole world was made up of jewels and crystals. The townspeople seemed to live in harmony with each other. They didn't know that they were living in heaven.As they walked through the town, they couldn't help but feel a sense of peace and tranquility. The air was fresh and clean, and the soun

    [That man's POV]The sun of the day had set with all its light and rays, but the moon was yet to rise. Far away in the clear sky, the little North Star was watching every scene happening on earth, as if someone had placed a spy to keep an eye on the earthlings, and was keeping them from discovering the secrets that lay beneath their beautiful surface.The North Star was a benevolent being who looked out over every life form that inhabited the earth. The North Star knew everything that happened on earth, and what went on in heaven.Zeta Eli was sitting in the packhouse looking intently at the open sky. A little more than three minutes had passed since he had started staring up into the clear blue sky.His face was calm, like when you are meditating; no thoughts, no worries, nothing to distract you, nothing to distract your mind. He could stay there for an eternity without even noticing that time had passed.Sometimes a gust of wind blew the hair in front of his eyes and tossed it from
