Your Fate is in My Hands

“I heard the news that my fiancé invited a girl to stay at his house,” Hayley said, placing her hands on her hips. Her jaw clenched as she fixed a sharp gaze on Ciara. “Turns out the news is true,” she added.“It’s not like what you think,” Scott said. However, he seemed indifferent to Hayley’s rage. He continued cooking instead of approaching her to calm her down.Of course, Scott’s demeanor only made Hayley angrier. “How can it not be what I think it is?! Now, if I were to invite a man to live with me, share the same room and bed, wouldn’t you think of what I think?!”Scott half-slammed the knife he was holding onto the countertop. One hand rested on the edge of the table, and the other was on his hip. He took a deep breath and stared at Hayley.“That’s a totally different thing!” he snapped. “It’s not like I invited her to stay here because I like her. It’s all because Hugh told me to take responsibility for Ciara being here.”“Oh... so your name is Ciara?” Hayley no longer paid at

I'm Not a Rogue

Ciara heard the front door being opened and then slammed shut. Not long after, Scott returned to the kitchen. He stood with his hands on his hips and said, “Don’t mind her.”But that was impossible, of course. Hayley’s position at Silvercrest was stronger than Ciara’s; it had to affect her. “Is she your girlfriend? What does ‘engagement’ mean?” Ciara asked.Scott furrowed his brow. “You’ve never heard the word ‘engagement’?”Ciara shook her head. “No,” she said. “I only know about boyfriends and husbands.” She paused for a moment. “Nova told me.”“I know.”“Know what?”“I know Nova is the one who told you.”This time, Ciara raised an eyebrow in surprise. “How could you know?”Scott walked behind the counter and continued cooking. “Because I only heard the name Nova from your mouth and no one else’s. So, I concluded that this Nova person is the one who taught you everything about life.”Ciara felt her cheeks flush with embarrassment. She looked down and played with her intertwined fing

New Environment

There were more werewolves gathering when Ciara arrived at the patrol team’s main base. The place was huge, consisting of wooden buildings, a very spacious semi-open room, and a courtyard capable of accommodating a thousand people. Ciara felt the burning enthusiasm amidst her embarrassment. She was happy to meet many werewolves, something she had dreamed of for a long time. However, just like when she came to Silvercrest, all eyes looked at her with suspicion and curiosity.She followed Scott as he walked while chatting with Sewell. She lowered her head, occasionally glancing towards the crowd, who stared back at her cynically. Among the crowd was Hayley.Everyone crowded toward the open space near the field and stood in rows. Five other people, including Scott, stood facing them. Ciara knew those five people; three of them were the ones who came to Scott and Ciara at the cabin. It seemed they were important figures in Silvercrest, just like Scott.Ciara stood outside the room, near t

Discussion

Scott almost rolled his eyes after hearing Gordon’s reason for coming to the patrol team’s main base. If it weren’t for him being a Beta and Scott needing to set an example for the team to respect Gordon, he would have scolded him already.“It doesn’t seem like an urgent matter to discuss right now,” Scott said. “I’m in the middle of training the members. We can talk about it after I’m done.”“Sure,” Gordon replied with a half-smirk.Since Gordon’s arrival, Scott had noticed him repeatedly stealing glances at Ciara.“Is there anything else you want to discuss?” Scott asked, trying to redirect Gordon’s attention to him.This time, Gordon’s gaze lingered on Ciara for quite some time before he glanced back at Scott and asked, “Who is she?”“I assume you already know who she is.”Gordon gave him a thin smile that matched the sly expression permanently etched on his face. “I hope she doesn’t disrupt the plans we’ve made, Scott. My wife won’t be pleased to hear about this. And I’m sure Hugh

Adjustment

All core members of the patrol team accepted Burke’s idea, and Scott couldn’t refuse because he didn’t want a rift between himself and his friends. This could impact the solidity of the patrol team and would even be bad for Ciara.Scott was looking for the right time to tell Ciara. On the way back home, they both remained silent. Ciara seemed exhausted and reluctant to speak. She must not be at ease after the things with Scott’s friends and Gordon. Scott would give her some time to rest, prepare dinner for her, and silently promise himself not to be offended if Ciara didn’t want to eat it, and then they would talk.As they entered the house, Scott and Ciara looked at each other and spoke almost simultaneously.“I’ll cook dinner,” Scott said.“Wh—where is my room?” Ciara asked.They both were surprised. Ciara immediately looked down and whispered, “Sorry.” She shrugged. “It’s okay if I don’t have a room. I mean, you don’t have to give me a room.” She seemed confused by her words, and S

Your Car is Cool

Ciara stared until her eyes ached upon hearing the price Scott was asking for his offer to buy clothes.“Then, no,” she blurted. “I don’t mind wearing your clothes.”“No, no, no! That’s not what I mean!” Scott stood up and put his hands on his hips, then ran his hand through his hair while sighing. “Ah... how should I put it?” he muttered, more to himself.After looking confused for a moment, he stared at her. His eyes melancholic. “You have to make it through,” he said. “I mean... use your body, your abilities, as best as you can to win the competition.”It was a request that made her heart blossom. She felt flattered and her face blushed. “Su—sure,” she stammered nervously.Scott gave her a sideways smile that vanished in the blink of an eye. “Let’s eat,” he invited.And they spent the rest of the evening at the kitchen counter, listening to Scott’s stories about his friends on the Silvercrest patrol team.It was the first time Ciara had spent an evening with so much laughter and tr

The Pastry Shop

It took an hour from Silvercrest to the nearest town, Naechester. Just like when Ciara first got into Scott’s car, her expression as the car glided into the city center of Naechester amused him. She was so excited like a kid being taken to a playground.“You look happy,” Scott said teasingly.Ciara seemed too elated to realize that he was teasing her. Her window was still wide open, but she no longer leaned out. Scott told her not to stick body parts out because they were now in fairly heavy traffic.Unlike Silvercrest, which was a settlement inhabited by werewolves, Naechester was a larger city inhabited by humans. Although Silvercrest also had shopping centers, restaurants, clothing stores, and public places like any city, Scott didn’t want to take Ciara around Silvercrest. It would only spark gossip and make Ciara the center of attention. He didn’t want to make her uncomfortable while she was in Silvercrest.“What’s that place?” Ciara asked, pointing to a bakery dominated by pink a

The Cassette Store

Half an hour later Ciara and Scott came out with a box of desserts, followed by the store manager and the waitress who had been laughing at Ciara. They kept saying sorry, even after Scott took Ciara across the street and into a shop.After making sure the people from the pastry shop couldn’t see them anymore, Ciara pulled her hand from Scott’s grip. “Is it necessary?” she asked. “Isn’t it natural for them to laugh at me for my ignorance?”They are now in a shop that contains box-shaped objects of small and large sizes. On each box were pictures of people Ciara didn’t know, or some were just colorful writing and pictures.“What did you say?” Scott asked.Someone entered and asked them to get away from the doorstep. Ciara jumped too far sideways and bumped into someone who was wearing something in his ears.“I’m sorry!” She yelped, cupping her hands and looking down.The man didn’t say anything and went back to his business. He nodded his head while closing his eyes and the weirdness ma

Two Strange Men

Scott couldn’t stop thinking about his behavior today. He didn’t feel like he was being himself, but he couldn’t deny that… he enjoyed it.He didn’t know when was the last time he went into town to just take a walk, or eat at a restaurant while watching the traffic and people passing by on the sidewalks.He’s been too busy preparing to become an Alpha and training the patrol team to properly protect the pack.He didn’t have time to really enjoy life.When he saw Ciara drink all of his beer and smash the glass while wiping away tears, he couldn’t help but smile.They stared at each other and laughed. A sincere laugh that Scott never seemed to have done so far.To borrow Godrick’s term, Scott’s life has always been like a somber black-and-white picture, and that’s why Scott is better suited to spending time with the serious Burke than Godrick and Sewell.Scott suddenly wanted to spend more time with Ciara. When they were done with the meal, he would take her to explore the city, to anti

Running Out of Patience

Deftly, Scott scooped Ciara in his arms and half ran towards the car. He opened the passenger door, threw her on the seat, then got into the driver’s seat and started the engine.“Close the door,” he ordered. Ciara reached out and pulled open the door, and someone’s hand appeared from behind, gripping her hand.She screamed, Scott widened his eyes in terror. He stepped on the gas pedal and the man who caught Ciara’s hand was dragged away. Even so, the man did not release his grip.Scott heard people on the sidewalk screaming at the sight of them.“Close the door with your other hand!” he shouted. They were soon at an intersection and the light was turning green. There was only one chance. If the light turned red, he must stop the car and they would be caught.“his hand will be caught in the car door!” Ciara replied, panicking.“That’s the point!” said Scott, irritated. How did she still think about the safety of the people who want to catch her? Sometimes her innocence made Scott want
