"So, your power is singing, huh?" asked Ruby, muttering to herself, propping up her chin as she looked at Betsy. The baby was wide-eyed and gazing in all directions, looking for anyone to play with.

It was Ruby's turn to glance at Jay on the opposite couch. The man's snoring resembled the rumbling of a volcano, but Ruby was relieved. Jay seemed to let go of all his burdens as he slept like a baby. He tried to put off the questions that would make his head explode.

About how Betsy could have this kind of power. Did she harbor other powers? Would she get stronger the older she got?

"Huft, I knew this adventure wouldn't be easy. Can she help me defeat Jemma? Betsy has a lot of potential."

***

The hot sun broke through the main window of the apartment, simultaneously opening Jay's horizon. Budding eyelids twitched, aroused by the orange light. A faint groan could be heard as they opened.

"Are you awake?" Ruby placed a glass of blood on the table and sat before Jay. "That's great, and you s

    "Ruby, are you okay?" asked Jay, sitting beside Betsy on the mini round chair. "Let me tell you everything." He volunteered. "It's okay," Ruby said, hugging herself like she was cold. "What's going on? What bad news is Baskerville dealing with?" Jordan was getting impatient. "I lost contact with my Clan, Mr. Jordan ...." "What?" Jay surprised. "No wonder, Glenn didn't send me message. What's wrong?" Jordan struggled to his feet. His bass voice almost woke Betsy up. Fortunately, the snow-white baby just tilted her head, continuing to sleep peacefully. "Everything will be okay. I'll try again to contact everyone in Baskerville or search in my vision." "Ruby, are you crying?" Jay quickly got up, turning around to grab Ruby in his arms. Ruby cried on Jay's shoulder for a while. "Can you give her a minute?" "Yes, yes, of course." Jordan nodded. He paced back and forth, waiting for Ruby to finish her emotional outburst. Jordan gripped the edge of Betsy's bed and slumped down.

    Jordan circled the cube table, taking in the holograms that he found not so much beautiful as distracting. It was too bright, flashy, and attention-grabbing. Baskerville Island was shrouded in a fog to protect it from human view. But there was no guarantee that distractions such as light or sound could distract human consciousness while sailing."Bastard! Your friend Haris betrayed us.""What ....?" Ruby was pensive for a long time. "No way, why he did do that?""What about the others?" Jay asked."I don't see them. To be sure, Haris is Jemma's Ally.""Hang in there," Jordan muttered, jerking his heavy eyes away.Once again, Jordan focused on observing the replicas. The city center was marked by the mayor's building, which was depicted as a magnificent castle. Two kings ruled Polis Sparta, but only one was in the hologram."That's right. My esteemed Archons, this is the latest Baskerville image if you approve of the Sparta Polis system. It's different from what you expected, isn't it?

    Ruby's lips pursed like a duck's, flanked by Jay's veined hands. At first, Ruby's cheeks blush from Jay's sudden touch and intense gaze. But that question popped up and made it all meaningless. Jay only cared about his good looks. What an idiot! Ruby's mind was busy cursing the man. He asked for an answer but made it difficult for the answerer to speak. "Make sure you treat me if I say yes!" threatened Ruby, his connotations rounded. "Take it easy, Miss Sweetie." Jay lowered his hand, gave Ruby a brief caress on the cheek, and walked away. One kick landed on Jay's ass. His footsteps instantly faltered. "Stop teasing me with that smile. You're more weasel than wolf!" "Well, that's one way I appreciate your compliment," Jay said. "This conversation is so useless." Caught up in her grumbling, Ruby swerved. Jay swiftly put his arm around the girl, causing Ruby to join in observing the modest restaurant in front of them. "Chiquetta Dine &. Bar? Cute name," Ruby chuckled. Her mood qu

    Jayden's lips were as soft as cotton candy. He gives Ruby a touch that stirs the soul. A breath that hunted with the night that would sooner or later leave. Ruby jerked her eyes to the light on the eastern horizon, dotted with his skin. "I must be crazy," Ruby chuckled. She glanced at Jay, who was fast asleep. Jay's chin rested comfortably on his head's shoulder so the girl couldn't move much. "What did I do to him? My alcohol tolerance level is shit," sighed Ruby. "Thank you," Jay said unexpectedly. Ruby gasped but was too dizzy to move. "And, sorry... for tearing your clothes," Jay said. Ruby let out a resigned sigh. Ruby's cheeks suddenly reddened, remembering what they had been through all night. At least the feeling of excitement was bubbling up instead. "Jay, do you realize something now?" Ruby looked up at the blue sky, followed by Jay, who changed to a prone position. His upper arm became Ruby's pillow, while the lower arm from the other side became his pillow. "You'r

    "This is crazy! Jemma is too crazy!""But the idea is brilliant!"“So Baskerville and Walles will merge?”"That means Basker forest will be abolished?""Argh, I'm already comfortable with peaceful Baskerville.""You want to rot on this village, huh? He said there will be no more discrimination to the human world!""Don't you want any progress?""But, why didn't the main pack tell us? When did our Highness Ruby and the others return from their business trip?"The topic of the new system would at least continue to echo for the next three days. Indeed, in three days, they would be holding a system change ceremony and a battle for five council seats. The atmosphere of heat began to rise in the community.Shey rubbed her ears at a traditional bar. Intent on staying away from the bars in the city center to avoid the sight of young people busy betting, it turned out to be the same in an old-fashioned bar.

    "He's dead," said Barlie.The acute phase struck with lightning speed. Shey collapsed over the body of a child, the oldest of the other children. Fifteen years old. Soon, he would grow up and be ready for serious training. But illness dashed the hopes of Shey and the other RED-EYEZ members."Oh, no ...."Shey turned around and hugged Thom. Thom's hands pushed her back to make her more comfortable. Meanwhile, his was wet with tears of pain. Physical pain would never have been this hard to shed tears. Disappointment, despair, and anxiety wrestled, creating deep wounds.After Shey's sobs subsided, Thom moved to release her embrace. She was the girl who used to be as strong as a thunderbolt but now looked fragile. She couldn't stand properly, so Thom had to hold her shoulders."It's not over yet, Shey. It's going to be okay," Thom said.Shey raised her head while busily wiping her tears. Someone handed her a handkerchief. Shey's gaze gradually rose, following who the owner of the writing

    "You think I'll let you go?" Joe crossed his arms on his back. He kept looking back as Ruby walked past him. But Ruby did not do the same. She stared straight ahead even though she stopped because of Joe's words. "I'm serious," Ruby said, "you're going to die in the arena. Maybe not just you. I don't know for sure. Hmm... should I hug them one by one?" "Are you bragging so you can get away from here... or so I'll be on your side?" Joe guessed. "There's no way you're hugging me for no apparent reason," he countered. The famous narrative of the Vampire clan was that their brains were fluid and intelligent. Their ancestors were educated aristocrats who preserved that title for centuries. The vampires said that was what distinguished their caste from the other undead. Ruby wondered, were the vampires in this dead forest outcasts? They occupied this ugly place instead of living in skyscrapers with all the luxuries of the city center and routinely attending balls with wine glasses fil

    "Ruby!""Glenn?" called Ruby loudly, like a madman talking to herself on a mountaintop."Can you hear me?""Yes! Yes! I can!""What? Can you hear me or not? Don't speak using your voice. Use your mind!" Hearing Glenn's instructions, Ruby took a deep breath and spoke using her inner voice."Glenn, I am with your dad.""Good! Where are you? Did Alex manage to take you to the black world?""No, we escaped. We are at the top of Mount Pelion. I have sent your dad to pick you up; please wait in the savanna of the wolf clan.""Thank God. Stay there, don't go anywhere; we'll catch up with you! We'll hurry to where you direct us.""Hm, alright. Don't slip while riding. Be careful!"Glenn's voice disappeared like the wind.*** The main pack of northern wolves first went through the forest to meet Glenn. However, Glenn outran them. "How was it?

    Ruby bowed ninety degrees. Though her eyes were fixed on her sand-covered toes, the dark orange shawl's glimpse passed in the breeze. When Ruby straightened up, she was alone—stunned at the moon's reflection. Half of its surface seemed to be bathed in seawater.Ruby wrinkled her watery nose. "That's right. This place is too cold and lonely. It must be boring because you've been alone all your life, Dad."The night wind pierced the surface of Ruby's skin. She rubbed her upper arms, then turned her back to the sea, intending to return to the treehouse. Ruby's gray irises shone as Justin stood up, one leg swaying at an angle. Justin's hands were folded behind his back, waiting for Ruby to face him casually."Uh, you're not sleeping?"Justin walked up to Ruby."Why are you here? Just wait, I want to put—"Who would have thought that Justin was carrying a white fluffy blanket from behind his back? It was stretched out behind Ruby's body, and Justin draped it over the girl's shoulders. The c

    "A secret!" said Ruby with a grin."Wow... you're in a good mood. Witches do look this scary, don't they?" Letta shuddered in horror."No scarier than your boss!" said Ruby, "You still want to side with Madam Jenn? I'm a thousand times better than her. Carl Justin has proven it.""Proved it with what?""A kiss," said Ruby.Letta let out a mocking laugh. "Alright. I'm even more convinced I won't be joining you.""Why?" Ruby's voice rose in disapproval. "The kiss was one of our strategies to escape the pursuit of the adjutant fairies, and just so you know, we succeeded!""And, you confidently came here. Does this mean you're finally turning yourself in?""I told you, I persuaded you to leave Madam Jenn."Letta suddenly walked away from Ruby."Hey! Why did you run away, fierce wolf sister?”Giving up is outside Ruby's life dictionary. Even if failing to negotiate meant there was a hidden path, Ruby just needed to find it.

    Marco and Ravin exchanged tense glances. Rubbing his glasses with the hem of his T-shirt, Ravin glared at Marco; should he stand by or rush Justin and ambush him? But Marco shook his head vaguely. Marco approached Justin flatly. Marco thought that there's no hoof's worth of danger an Omega can pose."Thank goodness you know where you're from," Marco said.Justin's tense look faded. "It looks like the mission failure didn't cause any serious problems. On the contrary, REDCA is suddenly sitting in an important seat at Paramour," Justin said, "did I miss something?"Justin's cheekbones stuck up. His mouth was dry to maintain that stupid smile. Justin didn't care about Marco's answer. He just wanted the question to flick Marco's pride. Omegas were still part of the pack, and Marco treated his pack badly.Marco nodded slowly. "It was my fault for leaving you with that witch. We thought you wouldn't survive."Justin chuckled, shifting his jaw to one side. "You know that's not what I meant,"

    Sterile fluid was poured over the wound. Smoke billowed out. The bleeding stopped, but Ruby grimaced in frustration. Guard Lim's flesh was blackened as if it had been grilled."Eum... I don't think my stomach's in the mood for berries right now," Justin chuckled, twisting his boxy stomach against the nausea.Ruby spread her fingers over Guard Lim's wound. She concentrated on channeling the silver powder. But the powder soaked in quickly, and there was no change. Her energy was drained.Chief Baker slipped his cell phone into the front pocket of his apron. He joined Ruby and Justin after stopping in the corner of the room."My doctor friend is coming in fifteen minutes," Chief Baker explained, "he's sewing up a fairy with a broken wing.""Will he live?" Justin ruffled his loins as he looked worriedly at Guardsman Lim."Judging by the wound...

    Heading towards the dining room, Justin kept pulling Ruby's arm backward to slow her down. Justin was determined to keep his distance from Medusa's snakes. In Justin's eyes, their slithering movements were a joke, and the stone statues he passed along the hallway felt like they were about to pounce."Who are they?" Justin asked curiously but didn't dare look at them."The thieves.""You killed them so easily."Medusa took Justin's words as a compliment. Ruby, on the other hand, shook her head. She couldn't figure out what kind of wolf Carl Justin was. Many Omegas in the Asylum acted tough in front of the female patients. However, Carl Justin did not even hide anything, no matter how much he wanted to be recognized."Wow! Cool!" Forget about those annoying snakes. Justin was mesmerized by the many dishes on the round table. There are so many foods like jam bread, egg sausage, fresh mango juice, and the star of the show - roast beef."That's especially for you.

    John raised his arms to his chest. "Please." Madam Jenn then took a sip of bittersweet-flavored coffee. "Thank you, this is delightful."John crossed one leg over the other. "Now tell me where my daughter is." "All right, as promised." Madam Jenn took a roll of paper out of her crocodile skin bag. The palm of her hand was so slippery holding the thing that the scroll rolled down John's leg."Oh dear! Sorry!"John's spontaneity as a true gentleman was provoked. He immediately bent down and picked up the coconut leaf-thick scroll of white paper that was meant for him. Just then, Madam Jenn stood up and leaned forward—a light tap on her false nails and a sprinkle of poisonous powder dissolved in John's coffee.Madam Jenn's speed was incredible. It was as if she had been practicing this mission for thousands of years. John swallowed as Madam Jenn retreated to the sofa."Is that for me?" John asked for confirmation.Madam Jenn nodded.

    A smell had stayed in Justin's nose since he first breathed in with the girl before she fell off the building. Justin stopped in less than two minutes in front of the fallen tree. The sound of breaking branches mixed with a roar, creating a fight noise. Justin watched the fight carefully, waiting for the perfect moment.Right now, Ruby kept avoiding the two wolves that were nearby. There were huge trees that couldn't be knocked down. Ruby attempted to run, but a stunning wolf with white patches around its eyes redirected her. Ruby squeezed her heels together to prevent herself from falling."Cool mask," Ruby exclaimed out of breath. After all, it was hard to leave a wounded woman. "Go away!"The enemy was in view. Birds in the north flew away from the trees, unwilling to roost in the area. Marco let out a roar, startling all the animals in the forest.

    Justin began eating the wrapped sausage, giving Ruby some relief. It would have been better if Justin finished it in one bite, but that's fine - the first bite was large. A few of the air conditioners were turned off. Ruby was hot, so she removed her hat. Her shiny hair looked lovely, but it was difficult for Justin to swallow. Justin stared with puffed-out cheeks. His eyes widened as though gazing at the vastness of the galaxy. Even in the dark, Ruby seemed to shine in Justin's eyes. "What's your name, by the way? I need to write it down.”"Carl Justin," he reluctantly added. "And you?" "Ruby Cassie Liona," she replied. "Nice name." Justin took a slow drink of water, but it didn't make it down his throat, and he coughed. "Ruby—what?""Is there any problem?" Ruby asked. Justin's brightness faded. His thirst persisted. His body felt rigid, making even setting down a bottle to take a sip challenging. REDCA focuses on her - the exact person Madam Jenn seeks. Justin's mind envisions a

    "Don't go out too often. The Caretakers might catch on," complained Dino. "Oh, come on! Just today. I'll miss dinner, but could you please help me out?" Ruby complained, "The boiled potatoes are just for you. Dealing with patients all day must tire you out." "Where are you even going?" "Today, burning of my mother," she said. Dino's eyes lit up. His sympathy faded, and he felt a twinge of remorse. "Even though I never saw my mother's face, I still...." "Miss her. Yes, you say that every year, and I'm sorry I forgot," Dino regretted. "Don't apologize for being senile. It's natural." "No, I am not!" With a laugh, Ruby replied to Dino's warning, promising to wake him up earlier than the senior officers. Earlier than the senior officers. "I promise!" Ruby said, waving her slender fingers gracefully. "Now it's time for you to get sleep."Anthony Dino fell asleep during a daydream induced by Ruby.
