"Do you have any other contact person to reach out to apart from your so-called brother?" asks the police officer, he was trying to control himself not to laugh. But they burst out laughing instead. And it only annoyed me to the point that I wanted to break the metal bars of the holding cell to rip off their throats with my claws and fangs. Humans always show their real colors. They know how it feels to be disowned by a family yet they all laughed at me instead of sharing my sadness. Good thing they don't share the same experience as me. Because if they do, I would be the first to laugh at them. "You dont have one anymore?" he added, his voice low and serious. Without saying a word to the police officer, I reached out to his phone and dialed Felise's digits. After what felt like an eternity, I heard Felise's voice on the other end of the line. With relief flooding through me, I quickly explained my predicament, hoping they could help me. Felise quickly s
As soon as I got back to the convenience store, my wolf could not help but think about how to convince Felise. She already said her thoughts about joining a pack, but that doesn't mean I must stop now. It was simply the beginning. The time would come she will realize the importance of having a family of the same kind. She simply needs a little push. My wolf has been working in the convenience store for several months now. While it paid the bills, I knew that it was not the path I wanted to take in life. I had always dreamed of attending college and obtaining a degree to set myself up for a successful career as a human if my wolf failed to succeed. However, I was unsure of how to start the process. One day, while working my shift, a student came into the store to purchase some snacks. I noticed the student wore a university jacket and hesitated before asking a question. But with eagerness in my heart, I gathered the courage to ask the student about the application process at thei
At that moment, Razel and I flushed inside, as we both realized that the scent of the attacker was familiar to me. It was some sort of a monster, my wolf just doesn't know what kind, and it had attacked Felise. Without hesitation, we both sprang into action, working together to defend Felise against the monster. We have to act fast to save her life, so I drew my claws and prepared to fight. "How's her wounds?" I asked Razel in a rush when my brother first checked Felise as soon as we got in. "It's getting worse. She's not healing." Razel said, his voice barely above a whisper. "Ezra, what should we do?" "We need to kill that monster first," I uttered while staring at the human size monster in front of us. Based on my quick observation, the monster wore the same uniform as Felise. Even though it was torn out, I believed she is also a student in the school. Perhaps she also noticed Felise had a monster inside her. But what kind of a monster she is? My heart w
Two nights later, Felise and I walked nervously towards the pack who were gathering around a roaring bonfire in the forest clearing. She wears a white long gown as part of the ritual. The white long gown exudes an elegant and timeless beauty. Its long and flowing dress accentuates her silhouette, highlighting her curves and grace. And the purity and simplicity of the white fabric enhance her natural beauty, creating a sense of femininity and sophistication. The rays of the moon's reflection on the fabric create a soft glow, accentuating the radiance of her skin and adding to her ethereal presence. On top of that, the pristine fabric flowing with her movements, gives her an aura of grace and elegance, while the long trail adds to her legal demeanor. What was more interesting about it is that I think I am falling in love with her. "Don't give me that kind of look, Ezra." Felise broke the profound thoughts that were running through my head. "I'm not looking at you, Felise." I defen
As the first light of dawn began to creep over the horizon, Felise and I made our way back to our respective homes, my heart overflowing with love and gratitude. My wolf just found something special, something rare and beautiful, and I must cherish it always. Day 1 The following night right after work and school, Felise and I was deep in the woods, surrounded by tall trees that reached up toward the dark sky. The moon was half full and bright, casting a silvery glow over the forest. It was the perfect night for a werewolf lesson. I had been a werewolf for years, and I was eager to teach Felise the basics of our kind. We stood in a small clearing, the grass soft beneath our feet. In our conversation, I began by explaining their abilities. "As a werewolf, we have incredible strength and speed," I said, flexing my muscles to demonstrate. "We can run faster than any human, and our senses are heightened. We can see in the dark, and our sense of smell is incredibly power
"She'd be out in a few minutes," I said with a smile on my face, believing Razel stopped by to confront Felise about the training. His unexpected appearance in front of Felise's house could have told me a few reasons. It's either he did not believe me about helping Felise with her wolf so he visited to confront her about it. Or to stop her from seeing me because instead of the address I sent her for the meet-up, he went straight to Felise's house. But I cannot blame my stepbrother to think that way. After all, Felise is his everything. His first and last girlfriend. The love of his life. The reason he breathe and woke up every morning. And the light in his darkness. Three minutes later, Razel and I found Felise sneaking out of the house. I was about to greet her but my stepbrother preceded me. He even blocked my chest, his gesture to leave it to him. As the big brother, I swallowed my pride and let him greet his girlfriend. After all, I am the only one who turned
"Is that even a yes?" Razel clarified, even looking me in the eye to see my reaction, not that he wanted to make me feel jealous, but he was a hundred percent curious or confused. But because my helpless brain has no idea what they were talking about, I simply lifted the tip of my shoulders toward my stepbrother. "Let me think about it first, Razel," Felise said, her voice sounding unsure and disinterested. "I'm so sleepy. Can I get back to you by tomorrow?" "But tomorrow night is the day of the Grand Ball." Razel insisted, his tone even sounded forceful. "You heard her, Razel." I cut in. "Of all the people who must understand her current situation, must be us. She went through a lot earlier." then I shrugged and dragged him out of Felise's apartment. "But-" he blurted. "Let go of me, Ezra. I am not yet done talking to Felise." "Let her rest, you moron!" I brotherly exclaimed. "You'll not get your answer if you insist on someone who's not willing to talk ab
Most of the students, including Razel followed us outside, but Felise and I already shifted into wolves and run as far away from the ballroom as fast as possible. In the middle of our running, I began talking to Felise in a calm and soothing voice, helping her to focus on her breathing and stay calm. Minute by minute, Felise began to regain control over her wolf. Her urge to run and hide began to fade away, but we continued running to make sure no one could follow us. On top of that, I could not feel her overflowing rage compared to earlier. She then glanced at me with gratitude in her eyes, knowing that I just saved her ass from an undesirable and dangerous situation. "Thank you, Ezra," she uttered, her voice static. "I should be the one thanking you, Felise." I humbly said back. "You made one of my dreams come true - to join the Grand Ball for the first time." Who could have thought Felise needed to experience being humiliated before she could finally sh
