CHAPTER 17SHOW OF CONCERNAlexander accidentally killed one of the boys, and Max was afraid of him at first, but because he was her brother, she realized she had the same beast with him. Max witnessed how her brother transformed, and she now finds him pretty handsome. They were always aware that they were extraordinary kids. Unlike other children their age. Alexander and Max both escaped from their foster homes. Max chose to follow him since she didn’t want to be away from him. It was the toughest day of their life as they went through the woods for two nights. At that time, the moon was also full. Alexander was weak since he was a little wolf. They were walking when they heard growling in the distance and realized they had wandered into uninvited territory. Alexander crept inside to steal food for the two of them to eat, but they were caught and punished for trespassing and stealing before being taken to the group leader. Henry was their group leader’s name. Max was persuad
CHAPTER 18SECRET REVEALEDSelena sighed as she softly wrapped her friends with her arms once more. “I miss those days, ehh...” We were free, and my father was here.” She became depressed all of a sudden. She hasn’t given her father any thought since she started getting strange feelings about her body. “Selena, it’s okay to cry.” They both stated.That was the problem. She could not weep. The tears refused to flow. She only wept when she couldn’t sleep and was forced to think back on her father’s interactions with her while he was still alive.Selena suddenly stood from her seat and confronted Dalett and Trisha. “There’s something I didn’t tell you. Something weird happened to me last night, and since you might not believe me, I’ll show you instead.” “I’m lost. Please accept my apologies. “Do you understand?” Dalett turned to Trisha and asked her a question. “Shhh... Dalett, let’s pay attention to what she has to say.” Selena raised her skirt to show her friends the scar caused
CHAPTER 19IN CONTACT WITH ESTRY HER WEREWOLFSuddenly, the light in Selena’s bathroom went out, leaving her with only the moon’s reflection. When she turned toward the moon, her room darkened.The moon changed its color, just as Trisha had mentioned. It turned red, a burning, fiery red.“It’s happening,” Trisha’s voice came from the restroom just before the music started.The loud music made it tough for Selena to stand up straight. She clung to the table, keeping her eyes fixed on the moon. She felt pressure in her veins and her body began to sweat.The clocks’ chimes grew louder, and her top priority was to ensure her friends’ safety. If Trisha was right, and she was about to become a werewolf, she didn’t want to harm them.When the clock finally stopped, Selena suddenly felt terrible. A sudden, intense pain shot through her back, causing her to drop to her knees. It only lasted a brief moment before easing, leaving her soaked in a clammy layer of cold sweat.Another excruciating p
CHAPTER 20I BELONG HERESelena drew a deep breath and began, “Last night, something strange occurred, and...” She paused briefly and nibbled her bottom lip before continuing, “I’m uncertain how I survived or woke up naked near that fountain this morning. My last memory was running into the woods after some accident.” She gasped, “Oh my goodness, we must leave immediately. I came here to find help for those people – I mean, the individuals involved in last night’s accident – before it’s too late.”Titus remained motionless.“Why aren’t you moving?” Selena inquired. “What’s the matter?”“We need to find you some clothes and keep you warm,” he advised.Selena scoffed, “While those people might die, you’re only worried about keeping me warm?”Titus inhaled deeply, “Come inside, and we can talk more comfortably.”“I can’t enter a house I barely know until I’ve attempted to save those people,” she replied, folding her arms.Titus frowned, “You’re remarkably stubborn.”“I’m glad you noticed
CHAPTER 21A GIFT“Did you say something?” Titus turned around upon hearing Selena’s voice. “No, I didn’t,” Titus responded. “You look all dressed up. The gown suits you perfectly.” Selena found a mirror and gazed at her reflection. “It’s not awful. It suits me,” she said, meeting Titus’s eyes. “I’ll take my leave now, Mr. Alpha.” “Don’t call me that,” Titus gritted his teeth and rolled his eyes. “Goodbye, Mr. Alpha,” Selena repeated as she walked to the door. Titus scowled, leading the way into the living room. Suddenly, he halted, surprised by an unexpected presence. “Max Terry?” Selena called in a hushed tone. “Hello, brother,” Terry said with a smirk. As Selena moved away, Max noticed her. “Brother? Wait, was she the sister you mentioned?” Titus briefly glanced at Selena before focusing on Max. Max looked at Selena with a frown and quickly stood up. “Brother, what’s she doing here? Do you know her?” Titus asked Max. “I know her, all right,” Max said, folding her arms as she f
CHAPER 22STAY UNNOTICED"Hi, Jade." Dalett approached the chair, pulled it out, and sat down. "Hey, Dalett." Jade stated. When she realized she hadn’t heard Selena’s voice, she dropped her phone and searched around the room. Selena would have been irritated if she had seen Jade on her phone or wearing one of her clothing at the dinner table. She cast a brief glance toward Dalett. "Why isn’t Selena with you guys?"From her vantage point. Dalett was puzzled. "Sele.. See...See...""Is she okay?" Jade looked at Trisha, who nodded. "Yes, Dalett is fine." Jade, Selena is in her room. She’s unlikely to join us for breakfast this morning." Jade burst out laughing. "I suppose Xavier ditched her.""They were never dating." Trisha covered her mouth as Dalett mumbled to herself. Trisha shook her head and laughed. "Ignore whatever Dalett stated. Selena and Xavier are doing really well." Jade gently nodded. "You two are weird." Hania and Isabel entered the room. Isabel looked around the room
CHAPTER 23A SECRET WITH FRIENDSDalett broke the silence, and Selena turned to face her. She let out a sigh. "Last night, guys, was the worst night of my life." I’m not sure how to put it, but I told you once that a wolf appeared to me in the school bathroom mirror, right?" They both nodded as she continued. "During yesterday’s red moon, the wolf returned, and I assumed its form."Dalett suddenly burst out laughing. "I find it difficult to believe you would make up a story like that." Look, we believed you when you said you were bitten, and then you abruptly left without telling us where you were. And now you’ve taken on the appearance of the Wolf you saw in the mirror? There is a better story you can tell than that.""Her name is Estry and she is a white wolf.""Estry?" Trisha inquired. "Selena, Estry is supposed to be black." She took a deep breath before returning her attention to Selena. Deeply inhale, then slowly exhale. "I believe you are already under a lot of stress." "I’m t
CHAPTER 24SELENA BURSTED Isabel entered Selena’s room a few minutes later. "Have you found anything yet?""No." Hania said as she came out of the bathroom. You won’t find anything there, I assured you. Maybe she’s just acting strange because Jordan passed away. "She’s acting really strangely." Hania placed her hands closest to her hips, on the side of her waist. She had her teeth on the bottom of her lips. "When was the last time you replaced the windows in the bathroom, Mom?""Hmm, that was probably two years ago. Really, I can’t recall. Why did you ask? "Haha! Mom!" Excitedly, she called. I think I might have at last found something. The window won’t be particularly clean considering that it is only two years old, right?Isabel slowly nodded her head. She still doesn’t understand what Hania was trying to say. Come on. "It appears like Selena’s bathroom window is clean." "Perhaps she cleaned it or washed it." "It’s too clean, mom." Too neat, as if she had just fixed it. Taki
