"It doesn't matter where I got those eyes, you merciless hunter. What matters to me is I'm gonna stop everyone who will cross my way in making this world a safer place to live not just for the humans but for us, werewolves too." With my immeasurable werewolf strength and power, I pulled the man closer to me before I could pin his face to the floor. I was about to cut off the man's throat but the ceiling started peeling off to the ground. And I just realized most parts of the restaurant and the casino was already swallowed in a blazing fire and dark smoke. So, I quickly scanned the ground if someone did not get the chance to head out of the place. When my senses found none except the two of us, I let go of my hand and run as fast as possible to reach the exit before getting burned along with the building. And my conscience no longer care if the hunter could make it out alive or not. I already give him a second chance to live. He should be thankful for that. As soon as I
Five minutes later, Nathan and I laid our backs on top of the car with a full stomachs. My head rested on his right shoulder with his left hand rubbing my chest. Above us was a clear and open sky surrounded by billions of stars twinkling in numerous colours, staring at us. The billions of stars were the only witness to how delighted I am being with the one I love the most. It was completely benign that night. Just the two of us. The kind of scenario I want to transpire for the rest of our lives. Being away from the main city wasn't that bad after all. Away from people. And away from Victor. "Ghino, do you mind if I ask you something?" Nathan muttered while mesmerizing by the magnificence of the sky. "Okay?" I muttered back, partly sleepy. "But before I'm gonna ask you the question, could you promise me that you'll not say no or at least say to me that you are going think about it?" Nathan adjusted his face and pointed his gaze at me. Before I could answer
The night we spent together on top of the car was close to perfection. Us, making love under the billions of stars in the sky as our sole witness. Who could have thought our journey to San Francisco started with chasing enemies and ending up on each other's chests and arms? It was an exhausting but promising experience. Because my entire body was too weary, I slept faster than I expected. And so is Nathan. "Look what you just did, Ghino? Can you recognize those wolves you killed in your hands?" A bolt of thunder followed by a flash of electrifying lightning struck my ears. The boisterous and rough voice was coming from no other than Victor. Compared to my previous nightmare which I haven't told anyone about, his presence was all over the place but I could barely find utter darkness. So, I dropped my gaze to my hands and found two wolves, both lifeless. I could see fist-size holes on their chest as though their hearts were both ripped off. The worst part is that I c
"Do we really have to park the car there, Ghino? I mean, not that I'm worried but how are we supposed to get back to New York without a car?" Nathan mentioned he's not worried but the tone of his voice tells me the other way around. He cannot let go of the car when it bestowed us a wonderful memory last night. And it has been rare that Nathan and I could have spent time together as special as last night that was worth remembering. He proposed to me. I disagreed because I have my reasons. But in the end, my heart realized there are no reasons for me to say no despite everything that happened in our lives. Seeing us together putting each other's rings in front of our friends and families was worth imagining. "Didn't you realize we were walking on a rocky and descending surface, Nathan?" My mood last night was completely ruined by Roger and his daughter's appearance. Talking with Nathan was even greatly affected as I just raised my voice at him. "Are you still mad at
"Excuse me?" I asked, somewhat furious and guilty. "What else could it be the other reason we put you in a cage, huh, young wolf?" I immediately pointed my gaze to the ground when she shifted back into her human form. In a few seconds, Nathan, Roger, and his daughter appeared with their hands knotted with chains and were assisted by a bunch of wolves. "So much for the plan, huh?" Roger spit saliva on the ground leaving his sharp gaze on me. Perhaps Nathan has already told him about our other plan that so happened which also failed. "Nathan! What are you gonna do with them?" I tried to remove those chains that were locked up in my hands and ankles but my wolf could not make it. Most of my strengths were used up last night with Nathan. "Apology, but we don't trust your allies, Ghino Frost of the Blue Moon Pack!" She mentioned my name aloud and clear. But how? I haven't introduced myself yet. As far as I could remember, the only one who was introduced earlie
{Nathan's POV} "What do you think of the reason Ghino got separated from us"? Roger impatiently muttered to his daughter. It has been an hour since we got locked up in the cage. The worst part is that my senses could barely reach his scent. "I don't know. Maybe that female alpha is having a pep talk with him. Perhaps she already knew Ghino was lying to her. I mean, what else could be the reason he got separated, right"? his daughter muttered back. "You're right about that, young lady. Because of that, Ghino will be hung to death before the night will end". The female alpha suddenly appeared in front of the cage we were in. "Do you have any last word to your beloved, Ghino, huh, Prince Nathan"? she pointed her gaze at me. I don't have any idea how she knew about my relationship with Ghino. But I know Ghino will not unfold that piece of information to anyone as I did back in the casino which almost cost his life. "What did you do to him? Where is he"? I could sen
"Enemies!" a man's boisterous yell from a distance erupted in the entire village, followed by the continuous howling of wolves telling everyone to prepare. Mixed worries and fears flooded the entire town in a matter of seconds. Despite the injury after fitting my werewolf body through the cage, my feet continued trekking, following the trail where we last saw Ghino. When I got to the cage he was in, he was already gone. And I could barely ask anyone when most of the families hiding in their houses were all scared. They all locked their doors and windows, thinking Victor's wolves or whatever monsters are attacking the village will feel sorry if they will destroy their houses. Whoever suggested that ridiculous idea was completely insane. Their female alpha, perhaps even agreed to that brainless idea. Subsequently, I continued roaming the village with caution. Then, I remembered they once told us that they are going to hang Ghino to death before the sunset. Shit. I s
"Stay out of this, Nathan. This is between me and her. For believing I am the enemy. I know you don't trust me yet, but you will..." "Ghino, whatever you're doing. Better do it now. We can't hold them any longer." Roger yelled despite having difficulties fighting against three. "Help them, Nathan. You are one of the reasons she can't trust me. Better prove to them you deserve to be the next king of your pack." Ghino's words penetrated my heart. My wolf doesn't know what exactly are they talking about but I could feel the level of desperation in his tone. His thunderous blaming growls which were pointing at me forced my feet to turn around. Forget my worries and fears, and attacked Victor's wolves with everything my wolf could offer. The only wolf who I believe trusted my wolf also blamed me. He did not hesitate to say that in front of me even if he knew it could hurt my feelings. The tone of his voice was telling me that everything could have been avoided if not be
