One Ugly Moment

JACOB'S POV

"Congratulations, Jacob, you're already famous here in the whole camp after your team with Marky won the archery competition," my friend Carl's smile reached his ears while speaking after he got close to me.

"But this achievement was almost got to waste. It's a good thing that Alpha Jomer didn't recognize me and didn't order the soldiers who were with him to chase me," I answered him while shaking my head.

"So what has gotten into your mind that you think of listening to Alpha Jomer's conversation with the beautiful woman that you're saying? Maybe she's one of Alpha Jomer's women and they're just fighting because of jealousy," Carl continued. I just told him that I tried to eavesdrop on what Alpha Jomer and the woman were arguing when I saw them. I didn't tell him that that woman and I almost had sex inside the comfort room. He definitely won't stop asking if I told him about that. I also didn't tell him the reason why we ended up inside the comfort room together.

"I'm more worried about the consequences if Alpha Jomer finds out that I left the camp and went to the city without informing him or Alpha Jerwin," I changed the topic.

"What did you do in the city that you really had to leave the camp without telling Alpha Jomer?" Carl asked curiously. The reason why sometimes, I don't want to tell him anything is because he is always curious and almost never runs out of questions.

"I did visit my sick grandmother. Didn't I tell you that? Then..." I stopped and couldn't continue speaking when I realized that what followed was our meeting with the beautiful woman at the videoke bar.

It's a good thing that Carl didn't inquire anymore as his attention went to something else.

"Wait, man!" he said as if he was surprised. "Look at that."

I followed the place where he was pointing. And I immediately saw Marky harassing a beautiful and rather chubby woman. I've seen her here at camp once so I think she's also a member of the Blue Blood Pack. But what caught my attention was the other woman with a more beautiful and sexy body. She is wearing shorts so it is obvious how smooth her long legs are. And when I took a close look at her, I realized that she was the sexy woman I almost had sex with inside the comfort room in the city.

"I just saw them now here at the camp," Carl commented, referring to the two women. "It seems that Marky likes them," he continued while not taking his eyes off the two women, Marky, and his two companions. "I wonder if they are also members of the Blue Blood Pack and are here to attend the party."

"I-I don't think they're also members of our pack," I chose not to tell Carl that the tall and sexy woman was the woman I told him who argued with Alpha Jomer. Then I turned my attention back to the beer I was drinking.

Marky is an arrogant beta who was on my team that won the trophy in the archery competition. Like me, he is also a trainee in being a soldier of the Blue Blood Pack. And he's my closest rival for being the best trainee.

A few moments later, I turned to them again with irritation. Marky's attention was focused on the tall and sexy woman now and I could clearly see him holding her ass.

The tall woman faced Marky but no confrontation happened and instead, she smiled at him as if she was challenging him. Does she intend to play with Marky, just like what she did to me?

"What, dude? Shall we confront Marky? What he's doing to those beautiful women is not right."

I suddenly came back to my senses when I heard Carl's voice, at the same time, he lightly patted me.

"I'm not in the mood to pick a fight with Marky right now," I replied, after guessing what Carl wanted to happen. Then, I returned my attention again to the beer I was drinking.

From the very beginning, Marky and I doesn't have a good relationship as trainees to be a soldier of our pack. I am one of the best trainees even though I came from a poor family, something that Marky doesn't like. He wants to be the best trainee. He didn't want to spoil his reputation as the son of a General who had been serving in the camp of the Blue Blood Pack for a long time.

After a few moments, I looked back at the tall and sexy woman, as my conscience didn't want to silence me because of what I saw, Marky harassing her.

Marky continued what he was doing, but this time, the chubby girl is already pulling the tall and sexy woman away from him.

Marky continued to follow, along with his two dogs who are also perverts like him. It seems that this madman really liked the two women. Well, they are really pretty and can easily get a man's attention, especially the sexy and tall one.

"What, man?"

I heard Carl's voice again, along with his tapping lightly on my shoulder.

"Leave them alone. It's not our obligation to help and defend those women against Marky," I answered and turned my attention back to the beer I was drinking.

"You're just pretending to not care at all. I know you also want to help them. I could see it in your face. We all know what kind of a man Marky is," Carl commented with a hint of teasing in his voice.

"What?"

Carl and I turned around when we heard the loud voice of the woman. It was the chubby woman who was now very angry while trying to push Marky away. Marky was already holding the arm of the tall and sexy woman at this moment and he was trying to kiss her forcefully.

I couldn't take the nagging of my conscience anymore so I stood up. I knew Marky. He really won't stop until he gets what he wants. He was so arrogant as he was the only son of the general of our pack.

"Can you handle them, man?" Carl immediately asked as I started to step on my feet. "I'll come with you."

"No need, man. Just stay here," I answered him in a firm voice. "I'm just going to talk to Marky."

"Alright, it's up to you. Just call me when you need backup."

I ignored Carl's last words and just continued walking. And a few steps further, Marky and the two women were already in front of me.

"Don't get involved, chubby. You can probably see that she also likes me," Marky, who seemed to be holding back his anger, said to the chubby woman.

"You don't have an idea what you're doing, Mister!" the chubby woman answered in a hard voice while still trying to push Marky away from her companion.

"It's better to just let her go, Marky. So that we can avoid getting into trouble here," I said after I got close to them. I could clearly see the change in Marky's mood after he looked at me. He frowned and held his neck as if his blood pressure suddenly raised when he saw my face.

"Look who's talking. Jacob, the lowlife beta, trying hard to be a soldier of the Blue Blood Pack!" Marky said while smiling like a dog, at the same time he let go of the tall woman. "Don't get involved in this, if you don't want your life to get messed up," he said with emphasis in the words while glaring at me.

"As a future soldier of our pack, I care, Marky. What you're doing is not right," I answered in a firm voice. Then I glanced at the tall woman. I even winked at her when our eyes met. But she just rolled her eyes as if she wasn't even impressed by what I was doing, defending her against Marky.

Then, her eyes widened in surprise as one of Marky's companions suddenly started attacking me.

I did not expect that, so I was surprised and received a strong blow to the jaw. I fell to the ground and was thrown away because of that. Another one of them was about to attack but I got ahead of him this time and took him down. Then, I approached the tall woman and smiled at her.

"Don't worry, Miss. I'll take care of you. I won't let Marky hurt you," I said while smiling at the tall woman. I wanted to impress her somehow but I didn't hear any answer from her and only showed me a blank expression.

"Watch out!" The chubby woman shouted to warn me but I was unable to avoid the strong attack from Marky. I fell to the ground again but immediately stood up and I returned a powerful attack to him.

Marky was hit in the face and his nose bled after he fell to the ground. His two companions immediately came to support him. And this time, it looks like Marky doesn't want to control the anger he feels anymore. I noticed the slight changes in his appearance as his claws came out. His two companions also positioned themselves into a fighting stance and got ready to attack me.

Carl also came closer to me and the tension between us started to rise.

Without saying a word, Marky unleashed a powerful attack but I dodged so he only hit the air.

"Stop it! What the hell are you doing!" the chubby woman shouted and she even stepped between us to stop us. But Marky didn't even care and continued to attack.

Meanwhile, the tall woman just seemed to enjoy watching us. She only came back to her senses when she probably noticed that Marky was about to run over the chubby woman, just to make his attack on me successful. She managed to pull her away but instead, Marky ran over her and she fell to the ground and got her arm bleeding. She was immediately supported by her chubby woman companion and helped her stand up.

I was already enraged now because of what Marky did and I almost couldn't control myself anymore.

My claws also came out and I unleashed a fierce attack. Then I showered him with punches and his body caught them all.

Marky was able to retaliate somehow but he received more attacks from me. Until I wounded him in the chest and he completely fell to the ground.

I stopped attacking him and turned around to approach the tall woman.

"Are you okay?" I asked her worriedly.

"You're still asking? Can't you see that I have a wound on my arm and I fell to the ground?" she answered in an annoyed voice. "And look at my shirt. It is so dirty now."

"Wait. Are you telling me that it is my fault? What I did was to help you," I answered while being a little disappointed because of the attitude she showed me despite what I'd done for her. The worries I felt for her disappeared, especially when I noticed that the wound on her arm was already starting to heal.

"Then who's to blame here? If you hadn't intervened, it wouldn't have gotten this messy. You just did that for me to notice you, right?"

"Wow, Mars. You are so judgmental," I even raised my hands after I heard that from her.

"Why? What do you want me to think about you suddenly coming here and pretending to help me? Is that not seeking attention?"

I didn't answer anymore because I thought that the conversation might just get longer and end up on something that no one else should hear it. I just whispered to myself instead, as I turned away from her.

"This woman has a bad attitude. It's such a waste being beautiful," I whispered to myself.

"What did you say?" I heard the tall woman's annoyed voice. Did she hear what I whispered to myself? "Do you think I didn't hear what you said?"

I looked at her again and saw that she was about to walk towards me but the chubby woman immediately stopped her.

"Let's go, Haria. Don't mind him anymore," I heard the chubby woman say.

"No, Kate. This man was saying something," the tall woman immediately answered in protest. She really wants to confront me and she doesn't want to be held back.

"Your older brother is already coming." This time the tall woman was stunned and seemed to have second thoughts about what she wanted to do. "Let's go!" the chubby woman continued with her voice that was full of worries. "Your older brother will definitely not like it when he finds out that you are involved in this mess. This is an important event for the Blue Blood Pack and he shouldn't see us here."

The tall woman just nodded after hearing what her companion said. But when she looked at me again, her desire to confront me seemed to prevail again as she tried to approach me again. But her companion grabbed her by the arm and started pulling her away.

"We have to leave. Your older brother is already coming!"
