I was looking out the window while the limousine was on the way towards the prison. The huge houses and quiet lanes we were passing by were somehow creepy. I mean, it was so silent and I rarely saw people smiling or laughing.We even passed on an old man and he just stared at us, with no emotions at all despite me smiling at him."Humans here aren't that friendly, aren't they?" I glanced at Fenris. We were in the backseat, holding each other's hands. "Except, they're not humans." He shrugged. "Didn't I tell you that the road we're going to pass by is a road owned by a billionaire werewolf? All you will see here is affiliated only to werewolves and nothing related to human beings.""Oh." I looked back at the window. "So this is another werewolf territory where humans cannot go through?""Exactly. Pure humans are highly prohibited in this place. Most who live here are the richest of the richest. Here, werewolves are free to do anything. What is illegal to the human world, is legal here
In a glimpse, I found myself battling with humanoid wolves, defending myself from their attack and attacking them back at all costs with my sword and the techniques that I learned from my previous training."Should we not transform yet?!" I asked Fenris through a mind-link while he was attacking two werewolves at the time."We cannot use our swords when we're in our wolf form. We need to find their weakness first and we need a sword to make that easier!" Fenris jumped above Dark Summoner's tail when it almost hit him.I bowed my head as another humanoid wolf almost scratched my face with its super long, pointed claws. I used my time freeze ability again and attack some black-eyed humanoids, finding the right spot to kill them. The time limit wasn't enough at all as additional Dark Summoner's arrived once again.We also tried cutting the black-eyed wolf's head but a new head just grew on him the moment they started moving again. "Fuck you!" I sliced one black-eyed humanoid wolf in hal
I cleared my drying throat. "Traitor," I gritted my teeth with all the shame I was feeling towards him.He slowly raised his head up until he met my eyes and it made me despise him even more. The tiredness in his eyes somehow pained me but I couldn't forget the fact that he was able to act friendly around me with a motive to destroy me, my family, and my kind.The side of his lips slightly rose as he stared deep within my soul."Kira," he scoffed, sounding tired and breathless while some wounds were visible on his face.While Fenris and I were on the way, I was ready to throw bad words at Claude once we arrived, I was ready to hurt him with my knife-like messages and curse him, and shout at him but now that I was right at the moment, I couldn't even process any word in my mind. It was like I was frozen, stunned. "Well, it's a pleasure that a dear friend just visited me." He smiled.I clenched my fist as I trembled more. I glared at him deeper, feeling like my eyes were a burning knif
Vilka smiled without her eyes moving an inch. "Can we talk, Kira?""Sure, we can." My laugh sounded awkward. "We're already talking," I said while tightening my grip on the doorknob."Uhm..." She looked around. "Can I come inside?""Huh?" I almost lost my grip on the door. "I mean, yeah, sure, why not?" I managed to chuckle as I widely opened the door and welcomed her.She walked inside and wandered around before she sat on the couch.I slowly closed the door and didn't lock it, just in case. I swallowed deeply before I faced and walked toward her."What is it that you wanna talk about?" I asked while I remained standing just in front of the couch."You seem..." Vilka bowed her head. "You seem cold to me lately and I cannot figure out why." She gasped. "Have I done something wrong? Have I said a word that offended you?"I bit my lower lips as I intertwined my hands together behind my back."Vilka, I don't know what you're talking about. I'm n
The next day, there was another Beta Jacob's lesson that Fenris wanted me to attend to. I gasped before I got up from the bed. It was my usual routine, I took a shower, had my breakfast, and then went to the room full of students looking like they wanted to melt me with their stares. The fifteen-year-old girl I met yesterday sat down beside me again.We had a conversation about her complicated life before Jacob finally arrived and started the class. We had an exam again that well, I got a perfect score this time. After that, Jacob gave me the permission to exit the session early.I was alone in the master's bedroom and I couldn't stop overthinking about Claude. Our last conversation and the way he looked at me were still shivering the hell out of me.I shrugged all the bad ideas off and decided to just wander around the garden again. The beautiful flowers and colourful butterflies were at least giving me some peaceful vibes. That there was s
"Kira." Mom showed up in the dining room.I sighed in relief as I loosened my grip on the dagger in my pocket. "Mom." My breath was still running away from me. Goodness, I was being more paranoid than ever."Can't sleep?" Mom asked.I nodded before drinking my milk."Something's keeping you up at night?" My lips thinned. "No, mom. It's just that… I'm not sleepy yet.*Mom took water from the fridge and put some in her glass. She then drank it before she looked back at me again."Do you wanna see something new?" Mom suddenly asked."What new, mom?" I smiled. "Magic again?"Mom chuckled. "Just come with me, I will show you something amazing." Mom's face was always brightening up every time she was talking about magics or the stuff. I could see how she missed her powers after being just an ordinary human for a very long time.I held onto
"As much as I want to, Kira, unfortunately, I cannot. Your mom will be your tutor from the beginning of your learning about magic to the end."I shrugged and pouted. As expected, that would be his answer. I excused myself from him and read more books about magic on the corner table. I puffed a breath, okay, this was enough. Perhaps I wasn't really totally ready for this. I put the book back on the shelves and said my goodbye to Slender.It was my rest day after the whole week of my tiring training with dad, although the silence and doing nothing felt exhausting to me lately, I was getting used to it. I just wished I could bond with Fenris more often. I didn't realize marrying an Alpha wasn't so easy to handle, goodness! Always busy, meetings everywhere, training and sessions every day. I was walking back towards the master's bedroom when I passed by my parents' room. The door was slightly opened. I paused for a while, thinkin
My brows crossed but I pursed my lips when Fenris' eyes looked deeper into my soul."Are we gonna talk about him again?" I sighed as I intertwined our hands together. "I told you, he is simply a close friend and nothing more than that."He rolled his eyes. "Just make sure he isn't just using you to get information about us. You're risking our safety just by simply talking to a vampire.""He is trustworthy, Fenris. Even Vilka trust him.""Yet your vision tells you that Vilka is gonna kill you.""You now think that that vision is accurate?" I raised my right brow."Expect the worst so you won't be disappointed, at the end.""Yeah, but… you can't only see the worst in people. That's a sad and stressful world to live in.""We live in a stressful world, what do you expect, Kira?"I looked away and puffed a breath. "Okay." "Okay? Okay, what?"
