Chapter 3: Fatal Truth

[KIMBERLY]

"Ouch" I groaned in pain with my hand holding my head, I gradually opened my eyes and saw two men standing and staring at me.

"She is awake" they alerted the others, I guess.

My eyes rolled around the room, synchronizing every ongoing activity. They were ten (10) in number, five men were sharpening the swords, two ladies and a man were on look out by the large broken window, and in front of me were the remaining who stared at me with desperation in their eyes.

The other man who had the tattoo, the familiar tattoo that gave me chills. Who are they?

I did not utter any word, all I did was stare at each of them expressionless.

"Is Lady Kim awake?" The ladies rushed over to me, looking agitated.

"Lady Kim, we are glad that you made it" the strange guy finally spoke, my attention was focused on him the whole time.

"Lady Kim?" I lip talked, with my solemn eyes.

"I'm Galaxy and this is" they introduced themselves looking happy, they look like they are on the run and have finally gotten a glimpse of hope.

"What... Where am I? Who am I? What is happening?" my lips curled as I struggled to voice out my feelings.

"Did she lose her memory?",

"It is not possible", they murmured between themselves, and I could not hear any word.

I gradually sit upright with the aim to listen to whatever they have to say, if they have any.

"You are the last surviving Alpha of the Crescent MoonDark pack. You lost your parents in the last war and right now, we are on the run because of the dangerous pack that is after us. We need you alive to help revive our pack" I swear to earth, I didn't understand any word that Galaxy explained, I mopped at him like a clown looking clueless and confused.

The last thing I could remember is....

"My heart bleeds though. I mean the way your roommates treat you poorly" her eyes became sad with her forehead folding into triple. I tried to assure her that I'm fine even when I wasn't with a warm smile.

"As long as I live, it will be over soon." I nodded affirmatively.

"You should try crying sometimes, you are a lady so stop acting so tough." she nudged my shoulder softly wearing a weird smile.

"Here it is, I'm off." I winked flirtatiously and left into the changing room. I could hear her mimicking my last word.

I laughed off.

"Childish."

The last encounter with my colleague in the club and also running into my dangerous boss who wanted to claim me that night, after that. I remember nothing.

"Pack?" I spat with my mouth wide open and my squeezed cheeks.

"I'm a waitress, I serve drinks in the club with my colleague?" I sighed.

"I'm an orphan." I blabbed.

"Lady Kim, you need to rest." Dave, the second Beta, and leader in charge heaved a sigh of relief.

"We are running out of time, Dave. We need to call her out of her dream!" Galaxy rebuked his decision.

"Can you take me back to where I came from?", I rolled my eyes at each of them in anxiety.

"You can't go back. You need to fight in order to return, if ever such exist" the lady who seemed to be my maid, Lucille sneered.

She looked annoyed.

"Do you mean if I follow your plan, I will return back to my world?", You could only imagine the desperation and anxiety in my eyes, I wanted to go back if ever, I wanted to wake up from this strange and scary dream.

They exchanged weird stares and turned back to me.

"Exactly" they nodded in unison.

It feels like a trick but I decided to risk it. I swallowed hard while looking at them.

"So, you mean I will act like a wolf?" I began rhetorically with a raised brow, Michael, the chief Gamma smirked at my statement.

"You are a wolf, not just regular wolf but the Alpha of Crescent MoonDark pack" Galaxy relinquished my past, I obviously tried to ignore this surreal delusion yet he called me out. He snorted.

"How?" I hold my head with my hands, as if it was about to fall off from my neck.

"Sir! Sir" one of the youngest ' wolf ' rushed into the room looking impatient, his name is Drake.

"What is it?" Dave questioned turning over to him.

"They are close, we better leave now" Drake urged.

He peed at me and went back to his elders. I sighed.

"Will I ever go back?" These thoughts baffled me. When will I ever stop running away or hiding in this life?

"Lady Kim, please we need to leave" Lucille informed me with her curled lips, her eyes urging me.

"Where are we running off to? Where is the phone? I need to alert the police" I stand from the bed searching on the empty rough wooden table, they observed me in silence until I turned to them.

"Werewolves kill human beings, less of mere police officers who can't handle their pistol properly" Galaxy scorned me.

I know it isn't time to check out beauties but he looked super handsome with all attributes one would think of. The ocean blue eyes, domineering aura, excellent body build - he propels delight.

"Let's leave here" he instructed the others and everyone except me began to pick up their weapon and in minutes, we were running inside the thick dangerous bush heading nowhere.

My hand didn't slip away from Galaxy's stronghold, nor did he plan on letting me loose. I let my mind drift into thinking about him though we ain't close.

"Urgh!!" sharp howling began to sound visibly behind us and we hastened our pace.

Some of them transformed instantly into wolves and their speed became maximum, I ran effortlessly with the remaining un-transformed wolves. The little rest gave me quite some strength that I felt no fatigue during the race.

"Argh!" Only now did I wake up from my trance. Alexis, one of our wolves who has been running faster, came crashing on the branch beside us.

A sharp arrow rested in his neck as blood flowed relentlessly, how come? We all knew the enemies were far behind us.

Then our enemies showed their faces in front of us, and one familiar face showed up; the face that made my heart panic.

"Boss?" I assisted my head with my other free hand as some memories began to troll in - in bleak form.

His face still showed vividly in my head. It was him, my boss.

Was he a werewolf? Our enemies charged towards us, with his other werewolves who were already transformed.

Galaxy held my hand firmly as we gradually stepped backward.

"Good to see you again, Kim." he sneered, holding a mischievous mocking grin.

"I want him." Then again, something soft whispered inside of me.

"What was that?" I locked my gaze on him.

He speaks only of death.
