(Dr. Albert Curie's POV)
They opened the door, werewolves were captured and kept inside cages with huge bars made of silver.
The beasts were going wild, they growled and howled in their cages around us.
"They are restless. They are looking for bloodshed. But Nothing to worry, the cages are completely safe." The alpha said. His adviser, Lupoz, nodded at us.
"We compiled a document for you to study what caused them to act like this." Lupoz said.
"You're going to ask us to find a cure for these monsters?! These creatures have killed many humans! Just kill them already! There is no justice for these filthy creatures!" Blurted by my wife.
"Samantha." I looked at her. She needs to be resting by now.
"Assist them to their room." Lupoz ordered one of the assistants. "We understand that you need to rest now, Mr. Curie, especially your wife." We followed the assistant they gave order. I smiled but filled with frustration.
I guess this is it. We were hopeless. We have no choice but to do what they want.
The elevator opened and a fine room appeared before us. They left us but locked the door from the outside. I looked outside the window; I could see the mansion's roof from our room.
"Albert." called Samantha. "What are we going to do? Don't tell me you're going to do what they want."
"We don't have a choice." while trying to open the window, it was hopeless. The room was arranged for someone to stay in it for a long time. There were three doors in the room, one door led to a laboratory which will serve our workplace.
"Albert, this is not good." she looked so worried. I nodded at her. We have to accept our current situation, and I don't want to say that again to my wife. She came towards me and saw the laboratory. She hugged me tightly and started to cry on my chest.
"The vampires will rescue us."I know they won't, but I would like to give my wife a little hope, something for her to hold.
I could see the moon still shining from the window. Wolves howls could be heard also, they sounded grieving.
We never wish for this kind of adventure. All we want is peace.
(EL’s POV)
I stared outside my window, I noticed something new to my eyes, the tower's window were lit, it was located at the east wing of the mansion. Because of its remote access, no one usually goes there, but the Human Couple's presence made us turn the place into their laboratory.
"Young Lord EL, the Grand Alpha summoned your presence." I turned my back at the window and headed to my father, he seemed annoyed by the constant noise of his wife.
I took a seat. A chessboard laid in front of us. Its pieces were all perfectly arranged and set.
We could still hear Tasha's complains about the lack of attention my father was giving her. I wouldn't be surprised if she starts breaking stuffs again.
Last time, she broke the antique vase displayed in their room. Sigh. Is woman like this all the time? Headache?
I was sitting on the side where the white pieces were placed. I moved the pawn to give way for my bishop, my father knew what I had in mind, he was quick to counter my moves.
"Tyros!"
"What?! I'll be there with you shortly, and I'll remind you how much of a whore you are." I couldn't hold my smile. This made Tasha stop. I guess she was successful making my father angry at her. She was obviously excited about what's going to happen later.
He smiled and moved his knight. We were now pouring our attention to the game, only the sound of the wooden pieces against the board could be heard. And for the tenth time he has beaten me again.
"It's a good game son." Signaling that we're done. I smiled and breathe deeply. Someday, I'll beat him. He gave me a simple smiled. A cold breeze of air entered the open terrace and we both turned our heads to look at the moon. Its light shone the lonely night.
"The war has already begun, Son." this made me pause my breathing momentarily. "The vampires have convinced the humans that we are the enemy. And because of that, they gave the vampires new ability to use against us. The number of their attacks will rise in the coming days. I need you to be ready at all times." he took down the knight using his king.
In every war fought, A king can always be a threat.
(Dr. Albert’s POV)
I could tell that my wife was having trouble falling asleep, she kept on changing her position while we lied on the bed. But she managed to make herself comfortable enough to sleep later on. Our current situation is harder compared to our stint with the vampires. She is certainly wishing to get out of this place. I got up and headed to the laboratory. I was looking for something we could use for escaping. Until, someone was knocking on the door, it opened shortly after.
"Dr. Curie, the grand Alpha would like to have a talk. Please follow me." I looked at my wife, she's still asleep. "Don't worry Mr. Curie, nothing bad will happen to your wife." I trusted his words, the alpha knows that if something bad happens to my wife, our deal would be over.
We went outside and he guided me to a patio. I was greeted with a gentle breeze, the dew drops flickered on the grass. The Grand Alpha was sitting in front of a big wooden table. Lupoz was standing beside him. I was still wondering why he joined the wolves to be their ally.
Then I remembered why his face was familiar to me. He was one of the Vampires who led the rebellion a few years ago. The Vampire council ordered for his execution using the machine they commissioned me to build, but he managed to escape with the help of some werewolves.
His eyes were staring right through mine, probably reading my thoughts. I casually looked away.
"Take a seat." Lupoz offered. "I hope you had a good rest, Dr. Curie." I didn't respond to him.One of the maids handed me a tea. I just ignored it.
"Is your wife feeling better now? I hope you two adjust well in this place." Lupoz continued. I'm sure he remembers me. I'm one of the people who was assigned to conduct the operation to kill him. They are the type of creatures who doesn't easily forget things.
"We won't last a week in this place." I finally said something.
"Good to hear, because your only way out is the serum which you must create for us. One week? Not bad." he tapped my shoulder, not sure if he's mocking.
The alpha was busily browsing through some papers, he gave it to his assistant after he's done.
"We're looking forward for your success, Dr. Curie. Our future lies in your hands." the alpha looked at me and took a sip on his tea.
"We can provide all the things you need for the project but be sure to use them only for making the serum." said Lupoz. "Or we will kill your wife. And after that, we will search for your relatives and have them executed too." he threatened. Tss. This old prune won't shut up.
"No. That's a mistake Lupoz." the woman from last night showed herself again. "Don't you know that a wife is the most precious to any husband? Save the best for last. Kill their relatives first before his wife."
"Indeed Miss Tasha, that's an excellent notion." I scowled at them. Their behavior was worse than the Alpha's. It's ironic to witness this human woman and vampire acting more uncivilized than the wolf.
"Are we making ourselves clear Mr. Curie?" Mocked Lupoz.
"Do I have a choice?" I stood up and asked to be escorted back to my wife.
She was still asleep when I returned.
"Dr. Curie, the grand alpha ordered us to deliver you these." two servants followed me, they were holding groceries. He must've thought that we won't be eating the foods they will prepare for us.
After the servants left, I placed the supplies in the fridge. It was stacked with everything we needed. Everything was looking fresh. It's been a while since I cooked something for my wife. So, I looked for something to prepare for her. Until I heard her scream. It caused me to drop the knife.
"Samantha?" I rushed towards her. She had a nightmare.
"We must leave this place Albert." She pleaded with tears in her eyes, I admit I am hopeless to grant her wish. I wrapped my arms around her, to make her feel that I am here beside her. That’s the only thing I can do.

(EL’s POV)I was pacing myself back and forth at my study room, my hands inside my pocket. Why is Lupoz going to be my next Mentor?"Don't worry Young Lord, I'm just your temporary tutor." he placed a stack of books on my desk. Uncle Rankin already made me answer all of these. Is this a retake? Tss. He's just wasting my time.I miss Uncle Rankin."Should we dismiss our class early, Lupoz?" while I finished his tasks quicker than he might expected."We need to stick
(Dr. Albert’s POV)Samantha was still asleep when I decided to read about the wolves' documents on the rampant attacks. The papers have already taken my full attention. One familiar case instantly caught my interest above others, the incident happened at the hospital where I used to work before. A Shewolf was behind the attack killing hundreds of humans on that day.Dr. Elisha Van Mendevil Laiparus, a well-known doctor. People thought she is one of us, but everyone was shocked when they found out that she was a werewolf. Her kind already captured her before the WSO (Werewolf Slayer Organization) had a chance to lay their hands on her.As I read the whole report, I just
(Dr. Albert Curie’s POV)A tear fell on her cheek. There was not a single day spent in that tower where she didn't cry. Somehow, she has changed, and it's affecting both of us. She has not been the same since we arrived here. Fear clothed her entirety. I miss my old sweet Samantha.I wanted to wipe her tears, but she turned her back on me."Samantha!" she locked the door from the outside of the laboratory when I returned inside.Shit! As I kicked the tools lying
(Dr. Albert Curie POV)Samantha was able to differentiate the DNA structures of the infected blood from the uncontaminated blood."Symptoms of hypertension occur first." she explained. My wife has been working as a crime lab scientist for years. So, testing blood samples was already normal for her. I could tell that she's starting to divert herself from stress.The Samantha I know is slowly coming back.(EL’s POV)My father's h
(Dr. Albert Curie’s POV)I am not sure... but I have already made the first prototype for the serum. I am not perfectly confident that this will work, although I have already informed the wolves that I'll be having my first clinical test trial. I took off my eyeglasses and closed my eyes, praying that it would work so we could get out of this place already. When they opened the door, I was greeted by a vampire, Lupoz. And some guards to assist me to the testing facility."Good luck Dr. Curie." His words sounded to mock me. He looked at my wife and noticed something different.
(Dr. Albert Curie’s POV)"She is also my tutor in academics, so there's nothing to worry, Dr. Curie." The Grand Alpha son reassure me. Jaquelin approached my wife and started to examine her. A look of uncertainty was on her face after examining my wife. She stood up, I noticed that she was bigger than most women I know."I'm afraid this isn't good, Dr. Curie." I paused my breathing momentarily and nodded to her direction. "Her condition isn't normal but it's not that rare. I will be providing her vitamins to help her with her lack of appetite." She signaled her assistants to bring the
(Leneth POV)"I didn't come here for you.” he chuckles about my desperation to be one of them. “Where is Samantha?" as he changes his voice that he has no time playing with me. I signaled at the bartender to make an exclusive drink for my guest."Well, to tell you the truth Mr. Aiden, I don't have any news of her since the event." my throat suddenly tightened making it hard for me to breath. What is he doing? He is paralyzing me using only his sight. As if there is an invisible hand gripping my neck. He clearly doesn't want to waste his time. What an ill-tempered man.I was gasping with air when he decided to release me."I thought I have made
(EL’s POV)My father has left the mansion for an important international meeting. He left Lupoz and his Sub Alphas in charge of our territory while he's gone. What the worst is, they did act like kings with their temporary authority. They even enforced restrictions on me to prevent from roaming around the area. I was forced to be locked up in my room.I smiled with resentment. When the cat is away the mice really does play. I was calmly sitting on my favorite spot beside the window. Everyone gather in conference room, I could sense that something is abou
