Some students hurried out after finishing all their classes today. William stayed out late because he didn't want to mix with the crowd. From the third floor, where their classroom was, he walked slowly until he reached the school grounds. From where he stood, he saw a familiar figure of a man standing in front of the guard's house, as if that boy was waiting for someone. He just kept on walking until he got out of the school campus. Behind him, he heard the quick footsteps of a person running, and soon a man walked along beside him. He knew it was the man who had pulled him up earlier and had tugged him to run away after he was hit by a car, but he didn't pay attention to the other guy. He is still confused about his experience this morning and wonders how come he was not heavily injured and only felt a slight pain and saw tiny bruises on his elbows after the car collided with him.The two continued to walk slowly without paying attention to each other. William is still in h
William got up early the next morning to go to school. He went to the kitchen to eat breakfast after bathing and dressing. His father and mother had both left early for work, but his mother had left a letter and some money pressed to the door of the refrigerator using a magnet. The letter was written to encourage William to take care of himself and do his best at school. He finished the meal quickly and washed the cutlery he had used. Then, William walked out of their house, wearing his maroon v-neck shirt, black jeans, and white shoes.Because of what happened yesterday, William did not bring his soundproof headphones. As he walked, he had no idea he'd run into Lawrence, the mysterious young man from yesterday's accident, at the spot where the latter had turned, causing them to part ways. William tries to avoid seeing the young man as much as possible, but fate is playing tricks on him, or Lawrence purposefully set them up to meet. William said nothing, and the two continued
Another year had passed, and William cheerfully celebrated his 19th birthday with his family, a few classmates, and his best friend Lawrence. Lawrence and William became close after Lawrence assisted William the day he was involved in a fight. Lawrence had given him a perfume with no brand or name on its black glass container as a gift. He inquired as to where the latter purchased it, and the reply was that he had made it himself. The perfume has a fragrant and masculine scent. The only thing William didn't understand was that Lawrence wanted him to promise to use it exclusively from now on. Because they are best friends and William has no idea what fragrance he prefers, he agrees and promises his friend that he will use it from the end of his birthday celebration until it runs out. Lawrence was pleased with his choice.William awoke from a deep sleep one night because he was thirsty. He went out of his room to get some water because his throat was dry. He walked past their l
“I'm not lying, bro, I saw his eyes glowing,” William insisted.“I didn't say you were lying, William,” Lawrence responded, “I just didn't see anything like that.”“We should probably end this conversation,” William said.“It's even better,” Lawrence replied.The two kept walking until they were out of the woods. They could see the old building where they had rested earlier from where they were now, but they did not return there. They decided to buy some snacks at the nearest convenience store. Lawrence asked William as they walked, "You did not use the perfume I gave you?"“Hmmm,” William said, nodding, “I forgot to perfume earlier.”“You promised me to use it until it ran out,” Lawrece said seriously.“I did but,” William replied, “this day I forgot.”William wondered why it was a big deal for his friend to use the perfume he had given him, but he chose to keep it lull. His mind was too busy with the creature he had seen earlier to add more thoughts. Wh
The next day was Monday, and just as he said when he called, Lawrence did not go to school. William called him during lunchtime, but he did not answer. The school also talked about the dead body found yesterday. Because their town is small and has been for a long time, only now has someone like that been found again and it has not been determined what caused it. The whole day ended with the event being just normal.On Tuesday morning, William was surprised to see Lawrence waiting for him at the corner of the street where they usually part ways. He approached him, and his friend smiled at him. Lawrence had a bandaged wound on his forehead, so William was even more surprised. “What happened to your face, bro?” William inquired.“I was hurt while working,” Lawrence explained.“It's just a regular wound,” he explained.“Work?” William inquired, perplexedly. “Are you having financial difficulties? Please let me know if you require assistance. ”Lawrence's reaction
William called his father after requesting assistance from their department. Robert is a cop who can assist with the current situation. “Dad, get here as soon as possible,” the son ordered.“We're going there right away, son,” William's father responded, “just relax, okay?”“OK, dad,” William said after taking a deep breath.“Tell your father to use the back gate of the school so he doesn't attract a lot of bystanders,” Lawrence said quietly to William, who nodded in response.Soon William's father arrived with the police and immediately closed the area to the public and students. As William instructed, the police troupe did not go through the main entrance of the school, so they successfully did not attract many students, but there were still a few who knew and spread the news on campus, so the number of people who went there intensified. The school called the family of the young man who was found dead and his parents directly substantiated that he was their son, an
After the call, Rita returned to the table and sat opposite the two young men. More than a minute of silence passed before she dared to ask, “Son, what happened earlier?”William's throat seemed to be blocked, so it was Lawrence who enacted everything that happened. From the moment they saw the corpse to the moment they were taken to the police department for interrogation Of course, except for the fact that William led the way using his sense of smell. William's mother was very worried and asked her son in an anxious tone, “Why didn't you even call me, son?”“I just don't want you to worry, Mom,” William replied.Her mother responded, “I'll be even more worried when I find out later.” Then, she looked her son in the eyes, worried. She asked, “What if it wasn't that simple, hmm?”“And you too, Lawrence,” Rita said, and looked at the young man next to her child. “When there happens to be an important event again that Willi
The hours, days, and months flew by. It was peaceful once more in William's small town. The Styles family agreed to miss whatever engagements they had tomorrow in order to bond. William invited Lawrence via text message, but he has yet to hear back from his friend. The Styles intended to visit a picnic area near the mountain, which is quite far from their small town. When approaching Ferry County, you will notice several tall mountains. They haven't been able to bond in a long time due to Robert and Rita's hectic schedules, and William is also preoccupied with his studies.They got up early to prepare the items they would be bringing. One of them is food. William was dressed in khaki summer shorts, white shoes, and a white shirt overlaid with a light blue polo with open buttons. When the couple waiting for him outside the car saw William, they smiled. They were struck by how quickly time passes. The cute baby they just got from a woman they didn't know has gro
Without a second thought, the hungry, evil, red-eyed werewolves were met with William’s bravery. On his face, there was no sign of dread. Anger and loathing may be seen in his golden eyes. He was planning his vengeance. He didn’t care if he died right now as long as he could let out the rage that was building up inside him.As the red-eyed werewolves saw William’s nails grow longer and sharper, they backed away. But their boldness returned until it was the only alteration in his physique, and they assumed the young man was only weak because he couldn’t fully transform into a dog-like or massive humanoid form yet. One of the three adversaries growled and charged at William. He was going to devour William whole when he opened his ravenous jaws, but William managed to dodge it. The enemy launched another strike, this time intending to pierce William’s throat with its sharp claws, but the latter slid and kicked hard on the opponent’s stomach, causing it to gush upwards as far as it could.
William and Leo made their way past the territory’s entrance and into the woods. In hot weather, enormous trees with broad branches and lots of green foliage serve as their protection from the heat. Because the path they were going on was full of dry leaves, every step of the two of them could be heard. William couldn’t recall how to get out of this mountain to go into town, but he can remember the way to where his parents were buried.William said, “I told you to just stay home.”Before responding, the boy next to him looked up at him.“I don’t have anyone in the territory to play with,” Leo lamented.“Isn’t Danielle currently in the territory?”“He left with the other kids of his age who were ready to begin training and honing their senses.”“Are you still unable to train?”When William asked a question, Leo bowed his head. With a groan, the youngster stated, “I was born weak, so I can’t practice.”Those assigned within the territory, such as in the kitchen and lighting the lamps, or
William left Greco’s house after it had passed midnight. He still finds it difficult to accept everything after hearing it all. The only difference now is that he knows they are telling the truth. He is Lawrence’s cousin, the son of the former alpha of the yellow-eyed werewolves to a human, and he is the niece of the current one, Greco. He’s not a typical average person. He is a hybrid of a human and a yellow-eyed werewolf.He was walking in the cold breeze. With the exception of moonlight, the lamp’s flames provide illumination on a gloomy night. Millions of stars may be seen twinkling in the great sky as well. Every step of William’s was deliberate. He’s looking down at his feet as he walks.“How come you didn’t eat?”As he entered his residence, William was astonished to hear Blake’s voice. Except for the food he had left on the dining table earlier, nothing had changed.“I don’t have an appetite,” William said, and he sat down immediately in the wooden chair in his living room.“I
Expensive decorations dazzle the eye in an exquisite home. Greco, a yellow-eyed werewolf, sits atop Alpha, a throne with a golden chair. Seats are available on both ends. Lawrence, the heir to his father’s reign, sits to the right. Arturo, the oracle of the yellow-eyed pack, sat on the left side.Lawrence, 17, addressed his father, “Dad, it’s been 9 years and still no results... is there any hope for us to find him?”Greco responded, “I’m not... we’re not going to stop looking for him until we do.”I promised my brother that I would track down and safeguard his son... Your only cousin.”“It can’t be just like this... We need to search somewhere far away.”Ferry County isn’t particularly large... Perhaps we’ll be able to locate him there. ” William suggested.“Ferry County?” inquired the oracle.Although Greco and William had seen this before, they were taken aback when the oracle’s eyes turned white.“School, mishap, and boy... a boy!”I believe we can finally find him in Ferry County!
Other people left except for Blake, who remained inside the house given to William. Only now did the latter observe that the timber house was well constructed and that it appeared to be vintage, especially with the fire-lit lamps. It's like he's just time traveling to ancient times.William entered the house and sat in the living room chair. He returned his gaze to the photo of the two of them on top of the coffee table.“They're completely right,” Blake said, looking at William.Blake was perplexed as to why William was staring at him and not responding to his words, so he raised his eyebrows in confusion.“I believe that was the first time you addressed me by my given name,” William marveled.He felt uneasy and ashamed when he realized how he had reacted, so he avoided looking at Blake. He swallowed many more times, and his chest thumped—so fast.“What did I do?” he wondered to himself.“No, this isn't the first time,” Blake said.William was aware of this, but he did not respond. He
When Blake entered his private residence, William was about to enter the bathroom with the clothing he was changing into.“Let's go,” Blake said, his voice booming and frigid to the ears.“Let me take a bath first,” William answered, baffled.“That's exactly what we're going to do,” Blake stated flatly.William thought it was weird, so he asked, “You and me, going to take a bath together?”Blake just said, “Don't overthink things.”“I have my own bathroom and a water sup—”“That water is intended for other uses,” Blake cut him off.William pondered the words of Blake.“How much more a constant water supply if there's no electric source here?” he wondered exactly.Blake started to pull away from him and went out of the home before he could even inquire where they might take a bath. William had no choice but to follow through.“This man never gave me any other options,” William grumbled to himself.They moved through the back of the yellow-eyed pack territory until they reached the woods
“You've finally awoke.”When William awoke the next morning, he heard an old man's voice. When he opened his eyes, he saw the visage of a guy in his sixties.With a goofy grin, the old guy later added, “I feared I hit you too hard and you died.”Because of what he heard, William immediately stood up on top of the bed and became alert.The old man burst out laughing at William. His tears began to pour as a result of the length of his laughter.“I just laughed like that again, child,” he said once he'd had enough laughter.“I'm no longer a child,” William stated solemnly.The old man agreed with William, “Hmm, right.”He said thoughtfully, “What you did last night, you're not really young anymore.”William pondered it and remembered what had transpired the night before. He leapt from the bed and was about to hurry out the door when the old man said, “He's gone, so don't bother.”William's face lit up with surprise, and he exclaimed, “What do you mean he's gone?”“Oh, sorry,” the old guy
William lay down on the bed, aware of how stunned he was and that he was not in the correct mode of thinking. He went home to retrieve the charger from their house, but there was no electricity in the yellow-eyed pack's small community. In the dark evening, only lamps provide illumination. He distorts the range of emotions he feels. That's why he couldn't look around and take in everything.William awoke around midnight, coughing numerous times owing to the dryness of his throat.He thought to himself, “Here we go again.”He couldn't recall how many times it had happened, but he remembered fainting the last time it did. He was startled by the pain, and his throat was constricted, so he got up and exited the small house where he was staying.He walks outdoors, clutching his throat in an attempt to relieve the pain. Later, he spotted a man with a drink in his hand emerge from a room.“Thirsty?” the man inquired after noticing William.In answer, William feigned a nod.“Just go into the k
Greco stated, “Hugo and Sarah are your biological parents.”What William had heard astounded him. For the time being, he didn't fully understand everything and just couldn't comprehend what they were saying, so he just remained silent.“Hugo and I were siblings, and Lawrence is my only son,” Greco said, turning to face his son, Lawrence, who stood idly beside William.“That means you and Lawrence are cousins,” Greco spoke again.“That's not true,” William explicitly stated flatly but decisively.“I didn't lie to you, William,” Greco replied seriously, “you are one of us.”“Father is right, William,” Lawrence said, agreeing to his father's statement.William couldn't control himself anymore and even though he didn't want to and tried to avoid feeling resentment against his closest friend, it was impossible.He looked at Lawrence furiously and said, “A statement coming from a liar like you is invalid.”Lawrence was shocked and hurt at the same time by what he heard. He said nothing but a
