CHAPTER FIVE
Alpha Khalid POV Anger surged through me, as I stared down at my clothes, which were now messed up with the stains of the wine. Even if the clothes were all black, and the stains from the wine didn't seem to do any harm to it, I still felt disgusted.

CHAPTER SEVEN Octavia POVI kept smiling foolishly, as the image of the weird guy back in the woods, kept replaying in my head. I just wished to see him again. His smiles, his grey eyes, his dimples, his perfect lips, just the image of it, makes me giggle foolishly.Sitting up on my mat, I stretched my hands above my head, as I yawned tiredly, before standing on my feet. Dragging my feet out of my room, I went to knock on my parent's door, but got no response. I didn't need anyone to tell me they must've gone out to do their hard labor as usual.This is how they've always lived, they are always made to go through hard labors out there, for no reason, they're always punished by the said superiors, they always go out and come back home, all tired, with bruises all over their bodies.

But, where I she?I felt a tap on my body, and I jerked, as my eyes flew open, that was when it dawned on me, that it was all a dream. It wasn't reality, I can't believe I got so scared in the dream. Letting out a sigh, I yawned tiredly, and sat up on the mat, before raising my gaze to see mom, still standing, but not as happy as usual.

Trying to ignore the noise, and focused on getting fresh air, but something kept pulling me my attention to the growls, and I found myself, snapping my eyes around the place, trying to know where the sound was coming from, but it seemed to be so far, that even my wolf, can't seem to decipher, where it was coming from.Teleporting to the woods, I looked around the forest, as I paid attention to the sound, with my mind, that's the only way I can get the exact place without difficulties.
