Angry and frustrated by his father's words, Steve left the pack and ran off to the forest. Knowing that he couldn't go back home because Veronica was there and also Megan, who had been calling and texting him nonstop. He knew she would definitely still be at his house. So, not having any other place to go, he just kept running and as he ran angrily in the forest, he transformed into his wolf form, tearing his clothes into shreds and growling angrily. His growl was not only that of anger and disappointment, but of serious pain and anguish.At that moment he didn't care where he was or what could happen to him. He just felt so bitter, devastated and helpless because no matter how hard he tried to run away, he was still his father's son and like his father had said, ‘his blood was flowing through his veins’. Those words alone cut through him deeply like the edge of a sharp sword.After long hours of venting his anger alone, he finally calmed down as he remembered Veronica who would be wa
“Tr…Trey?” Megan stuttered as soon as she saw him at the door.“Yeap! That's me!” He answered proudly, with so much excitement, making Megan wonder why he suddenly showed up there.“What are you doing here?” She asked, still shocked.“What do you mean? Isn't it obvious?” He asked, shrugging.“That what?” She asked him, getting a bit uncomfortable.I came to see Steve, of course.” He replied, rolling his eyes at her.“Did he tell you…” She suddenly paused and rephrased her question. “Did he know you were coming?” She asked him again.“Well, not exactly.” He answered, raising an eyebrow.“So? Why are you here?” She inquired.“I tried calling him but I couldn't reach him and so I came here, regardless.” He replied and blinked multiple times before speaking again, “Wait, what are all these questions for? Can you move out of the way? I need to go in.” He said, looking a bit offended, but Megan refused to move out of the way.“Steve is not in. Maybe you can come back some other time.” She s
“Trey? What do you think you're doing? Are you insane?” Scott asked him as he rushed to Megan who was still on the floor.He carefully helped her up and watched as she dusted her clothes with her little handkerchief. When she was done, he faced Trey.“How dare you, Trey? How dare you come to my house and harass my guest? Huh? How dare you?” Steve angrily yelled at him.“I'm sorry, man. I came looking for you and she said you weren't in. I thought that-” He tried to explain himself but Steve wasn't having it at all, he cut him off.“And you couldn't call me before coming? What do you have a mobile phone for? For decoration or for what?” He questioned. “I tried to do that, but your line wasn't connecting. In fact, I called you countless times but I still couldn't reach you.” Trey explained but Steve wasn't interested in what he was saying till he spoke again.“You know, for a moment, I thought you were intentionally avoiding me. I could have sworn by the moon goddess that you intention
Megan screamed in shock as she saw what had just happened, while Trey curled up into a ball as he winced in pain on the floor. People who had been watching the whole drama from afar soon began to come closer.“Oh my goodness, are you okay?” Megan asked as she crouched beside Trey who was bleeding from his nose and mouth.“Ahhhhhh.” Trey kept screaming as he held his face in his hands.Megan turned to look at Steve who was still glaring at Trey like he still wanted to tear him apart.“Steve, we need to take him to the hospital. He is bleeding so much.” Megan said, panicking, but he didn't budge.“You can take him to the hospital or anywhere, I don't care about this bastard. He got what he deserved.” Steve said and angrily walked off into the house, leaving Megan and Trey outside.As Steve opened the door and entered the house, he shut it behind him and rested his head on the door, facing it as he thought for a moment but as he turned around and was about to make his way into the room,
“Who is there?” Steve asked as he approached the door but he got no response.He sighed, closed his eyes for a brief moment, and gradually opened the door. And as he slowly opened the door, the door was suddenly pushed in and Megan barged in.“Yo! Calm down.” Steve exclaimed, a bit relieved as he watched her go in, while he still stood at the door.“Why did it take you so long to open the door?” She asked him, frowning.“Well, I didn't know it was you at the door since I didn't think you'd get back so soon.” He answered, shrugging.“What do you mean by that? Were you expecting me to sleep in or start living in the hospital?” She said, with a bit of sarcasm.“I don't know, you could have decided to.” He replied with sarcasm too and she glared at him.“Who were you expecting though?” She asked, suddenly remembering that he said he wasn't expecting her to return so soon.“Anyone else, but you.” He replied with furrowed eyebrows, after which he locked the door and walked into the living r
“I'll be right behind you.” Megan said to him as he walked towards the door, but Steve shook his head and refused.“Don't! I already have an idea of how the whole thing will pan out and I don't want you there.” He said to her firmly, and she nodded as he calmly opened the door and without questions, followed the guards who had come to pick him, while Megan watched as he was being taken away.As they left, Megan sighed and went back into the house. She dropped herself on the sofa in frustration and worry as she stared into thin air, that she didn't notice that Veronica had come out of the room.“What do you think is going to happen to him?” Megan whispered beside her, startling her and she jerked back to reality.“I scared you, didn't I?” Veronica asked.“Uh, yeah.” Megan answered softly and Veronica sighed.“I'm sorry.” Veronica said. “How do you feel?” She asked her.“Honestly, I don't know how I feel. I'm just kind of scared and frustrated.” She confessed and Veronica sighed again.
“What?!” How is that possible? How did that happen?” Alpha Marcus asked him, with eyes wide open in shock.“I have no idea, Alpha.” The guard responded, as he finally gained balance.“What could have caused this? Who could be behind this?” Alpha Marcus asked, turning to Beta Richard, who was also in shock.“I have no idea, Alpha. I'm as confused as you are.” Beta Richard answered him.Right then, Beta Richard’s phone rang and he immediately pulled it out of his pocket and answered the call.“Yes?” He said and he answered.“Oh, really?” He asked the caller and continued, “I'll be right there.” He said and the call ended.“What is going on?” Alpha Marcus asked him, “Who was that?”“I just got a call from Lily. She is at the site of the fire.” He answered and put his phone away.“And?” Alpha Marcus pressed urgently. “Does she have any information yet? Anything at all about what started the fire or if there are any casualties?” He asked impatiently, his voice laced with concern and his to
“No way!” Beta Richard exclaimed in shock, “Why didn't you say anything earlier? Why wait until now?” He asked the man.“I didn't know….” The man cried out.“You didn't know what?” Beta Richard asked him, getting impatient.“I didn't know that the fire was going to keep spreading rapidly.” The man replied and Beta Richard shook his head in disappointment. “The chemicals are used in the production of our products but they are flammable in their uncombined state.” The man said, adding more details.“So what do we do now?” Beta Richard asked, turning to the incident commander(IC), his eyes searching for reassurance as the sound of cackling flames and shouting firefighters persistently filled the air.“Exactly, what do we do, IC?” Beta Lily pressed, her voice laced with concern, as she glanced towards the burning building, her eyes squinting through the smoke. “We have to do something as soon as possible to avoid a greater calamity.” She added.The incident commander nodded thoughtfully,
