BALIN"That's left for you to find out."Just hearing that made me rage. How can he suddenly break a news like this to me without offering any solution? Where the heck am I going to find the so-called she-wolf? How do I even recognize her? And worst of all, she is dead."What do you mean by that?" I glowered at Kabal."I'm sorry, Alpha," That's as far as I can see in this case. He bowed his head deeply."Get lost," I snapped, annoyed at him.He turned around and muttered some words, then exited the room. I didn't bother to listen to him or try to find out what he said. But then it seemed like Marilyn heard him."I see no future for the both of you, the moon goddess indeed made a mistake," Marilyn repeated his words anxiously."Fuck, what the heck am I supposed to do right now? I already have the problem of young wolves going rogue on their first shift and now this. The full moon will appear in exactly two weeks.""What a wonderful coincidence, " I thought sarcastically.I felt Marilyn
BALIN "What's…." I trailed off when I caught sight of Alicia in their midst. "I'll end her today," Lin growled. "To what do I owe this sudden visit," I asked, shutting off Lin. "Alpha, we would like to have a meeting with you," the oldest amongst them said. I nodded and without disputing, I walked alongside them to the meeting ground. "So?" Jarek questioned once we got there. "We got wind that you found your mate." "Congratulations Alpha," they all chorused and bowed. I clicked my tongue at their hypocrisy. "Why does it seem like you are not really happy with the fact that I found my mate?" I asked, my murderous gaze fixed on them. The oldest cleared his throat. "We heard that your mate isn't like us," he said with his head bowed. "I wonder where you heard that from. It has been barely an hour since I found out about my mate…" I trailed off, letting my words sink in. Alicia, who played an important role in the pack, had also joined us for the meeting. Knowing my words we
MARILYN Getting close to her, I grabbed one of the plates on the trolley and smacked it on her face. I made sure to smear the dish on her face. Once I got satisfied with my handiwork on her face, I stood beside her watching her with a taunting smile on my face. She seemed too startled to react at first, but then, she was quick to overcome her shock. She wiped the sauce off her face and glared at me long and hard. "What the heck did you just do, you useless mermaid from nowhere," she glowered. Her eye colour changed for a moment and I quickly took a defensive stance. "You idiot," she snarled and charged towards me. Knowing that she had an upper hand against me since mermaids were calm in nature and hardly engaged in acts of violence, I knew she might probably tear me into pieces. In the heat of the moment I roughly pushed the trolley towards her, before she could even notice the trolley heading in her direction, it was already too late. She miserably crashed into the trolley a
MARILYN Balin and I sat comfortably on each other's side enjoying the calmness and serenity of the pool. The environment where the pool is located is awfully quiet. Only me, Balin and a few guards stationed around the pool were seen there. "Seems like this part of the pack is not accessible to members of the pack," I thought and raised my head to look around. Balin pushed my head back to his shoulder. "This place is just for me. No one is allowed in here," he muttered. I nodded and kept shut, enjoying the undeniable comfort that his shoulders brought. "I almost forgot to tell you about this," Balin muttered and I opened my ears wide to hear what he wanted to say. "I demoted Alicia from being the Pack's head doctor to being your personal maid," he stated. "That explains why she brought my lunch," I thought. Balin nodded to attest to my thoughts. "This is going to be fun." "I wonder why the moon goddess paired me with a troublemaker," Balin wondered, aloud. "That's because
MARILYN Knowing that Balin might get upset if I let Aylin into his room without letting him know, I led Aylin to the room he called mine. Getting in there, I shut the door and turned to Aylin who was suddenly quiet and was staring at me. "Have a seat," I said and gestured for her to sit on the bed, but she declined and made me sit instead. I stared at her wondering what was wrong, she had been so outspoken at the main hall just now, I couldn't understand why she was suddenly quiet. "Are you okay?" I asked and she bobbed her head. "If you need anything, feel free to tell me, I'll quickly go get it for you," she said and bowed her head. "You don't have to treat me like this merely because I brought you out of the water cage. I want us to be friends," I said and approached her, but she took a step back before I could reach her, making me halt my movement. "We are not of the same status. I dare not become friends with you," she bowed her head. "Okay this is getting weird," I though
BALIN "Where is your mother's grave?" I asked again."I'm never telling you that," she insisted.I growled and took predatory steps towards her. A pang of pain shot through my heart and I halted."Marilyn," I muttered. My heart began to thump and ache badly."Something is wrong with Marilyn," Lin whimpered."Alpha, are you alright?" Jarek asked and quickly approached me, seeing how I was suddenly distracted.Before he could get close to me, I took to my heels and raced out of the house, my heart thumping erratically. I've never felt this scared in my entire life. I am usually the one who made people scared, so being scared was a totally new feeling for me.Outside the building, my nails elongated, furs covered my body. And in a matter of seconds, Lin took over and I changed into a gigantic black wolf. In what seemed like a flash, I zoomed off."Alpha," I heard Jarek call but was too worried to look back.I heard the sound of his clothes ripping, making me aware that he was also trans
MARILYN "Escort me to the punishment ground. You will be the one to decide how the offenders will be punished," Balin said and my eyes widened in surprise."Who are we going to punish?"I asked.He stared at me."Did she lose her memory?" I heard him wonder."I can hear your thoughts." I smiled and he smiled back at me.The jerkface guy cleared his throat making me look away from Balin. I glared at him and he glowered at me."This guy didn't seem to like me," I thought.My thoughts made Balin glare at him. They had some secret communication I couldn't hear even though I was there."What did Balin call it again?" I wondered."Mind link," he said."Oh, yeah," I nodded.Whatever conversation they had, made the guy leave the room. But before he shut the door, he gave me an irritated look, as if asking me to leave Balin alone.It's official, I wasn't going to have a moment of peace here. Everyone seemed to be against me."Let's leave," Balin said and took my hands, helping me rise from the
MARILYN“Isn't this you?” the lady asked.I took the painting from her and indeed, it was a painting of me.“How did you get this?” I asked, wide-eyed. The painting wasn't just any painting, it was a painting of when I was still in the sea.I held the painting ever so dearly, as it reminded me of my life while in the sea. It reminded me of when I was able to move around without restriction. I sighed as memories of the past filled my mind. Balin held me as if he truly understood how I felt. I sighed and leaned into him.“You are still the same,” the lady said.I stared at her, wondering what she meant. She in return stared back at me, smiling. Seeing that she wasn't ready to talk, I took the initiative to question her,“Have we met before? You talk as if you've met me somewhere before.The lady smiled at me and came even closer to me. Balin took a protective stance and growled at her.“I'm not here for you, murder. you think I will be afraid of you. My respect for you ended the day my
