Chapter 10: The Party II

Blaze's Point of View

I removed the black rose from Summer's chest. People began shouting and fleeing as they heard gunshots in the middle of the a party.  

"What's happening?" Summer questioned me, but I chose to disregard her inquiries and seize her in order to search for a room in which we could hide. 

I discovered an empty classroom far away from the party; I hope no one finds her here. I was thinking about leaving her here and helping the pack. 

"Stay here, don't go there no matter what, okay?" I told her that we could still hear screams outside.

"What? "Are you going to leave me here?" Summer yelled. 

I have a responsibility to help the pack, which comprises of many more hunters than we do. I needed to make certain that everyone was safe.

"It's dangerous out there, I'll check how I could get you out of here," 

"Promise me, you'll be back,"

"I promise," I kissed her forehead before leaving the room, "I will make sure no one sees us."

One hunter tried to shoot me as I walked back to the party, but I dodged it. 

I took off my coat and let Fernis take over my body. I transformed into a wolf and aided the group.

'There were a lot of hunters, Blaze,' stated my wolf.

'You can beat them if you keep biting,' I told Fernis.

When Fernis had control of me, I was more powerful, and we could easily crush the hunters. The ambush proceeded, and the party was completely wrecked. And, one by one, the hunters escaped.

'Blaze, Theresa said we should go return to the mansion right now,' Keahi mind-linked me.

'Are we done here yet?' 

'The hunters have all left,' Fernis said.

'Keahi, lead the pack back to the mansion; I'm going to have another look around here,' I mind-linked him and returned to my human form.

'Understood,' says Keahi as he leads the group to ensure their safety.

When I arrived in the parking lot, I was completely naked. I was glad I brought additional clothes because I knew my suit would be ripped off once I turned into a werewolf.

I have to check up on Summer. I was trying to recall which room I had left her in. 

I went through the rooms one by one until I got to the last one, which I believe was the one I was looking for. 

When I entered the room, I noticed Summer laying on the floor. I hurried over to her to see whether she was wounded.

"Summer?" To wake her awake, I lightly tapped her cheeks.

"Hmmm?" she wondered. She opens her eyes slightly.

"What are you doing on the floor?" "Are you in pain?"

"Wilder?" 

"Yes, tell me are you hurt?"

"No, I'm not, Brigid helped me,"

"Brigid?"

"Yeah, there was a guy who has a gun entered earlier, Brigid get rid of it,"

"You know Brigid?" 

How did Summer know Brigid? Was I missing something? They've met before?

"The lady I met at a boutique shop, wait?" "Do you also know someone named Brigid?"

"Yes, but I don't if we're thinking the same Brigid."

"Was the chaos over?"

"Yeah.. everything's okay now, c'mon I'll take you home,"

"OK, but?" What happened to your suit? "Are you okay?" Summer replied as she examined my arms.

How would I be able to tell that it was destroyed when I changed into my wolf form? Never mind, let's just come up with some reasons instead.

"No I wasn't, it got some stains so I decided to change clothes,"

"Oh.. You must have fought very hard, don't you?"

"hahahah I think so,"

We walked out, and there were no students or visitors left, only the chairs and table, which had all collapsed in the chaos.

Summer whispered, "It was all ruined," after seeing the place.

"Yeah," 

I was the one who drove Summer to their house. I have to talk to Brigid because I don't want any of them to be around her because the situation was so risky.

"You must be startled, this night was so special to you,"

"That's fine, I was just hoping that everyone was safe."

"Me too,"

"Thank you, Wilder," Summer remarked as we arrived at their house. I hope it doesn't become a trauma for her.

"Welcome, go get some rest now, Queen,"

We bade each other farewell, and I hurried to the mansion when we had finished our conversation. I noticed the packs congregating; they're having their own party.

"Blaze!" As soon as I walked into the room, Tom was there to greet me, and the waiter who was roaming the room offered me a glass of wine.

"How's everyone?" I inquired of Tom. 

"Everyone? Don't you notice? We're having a party, therefore no one got wounded!"

"Good, where's Brigid?"

"Brother! Let's have some fun!" Keahi wrapped his arms around my shoulders and led me to a table full of beverages. I let go of his hand since I didn't feel like partying tonight. I left them without saying anything, and I ran into Theresa but did not welcome her.

I went upstairs to speak with Brigid, and as I opened her door, I noticed her sipping her wine on the balcony.

"Brigid! You're familiar with Summer, aren't you?

"Fuck! Blaze, you scared me."

"Just answer my goddamn question,"

"Summer? "Who was he?"

"The girl you helped at the school,"

"Hmm.. Oh? I assisted several pupils there,"

"The one who's in the empty classroom,"

"Oh! that lady? "Was it Summer?" Was this girl teasing me?

"Yes, she is."

"What gives you such a bad temper? "I wasn't doing anything to her.... yet," Brigid answered, before laughing wickedly.

"Don't you dare touch her or go near her again, I'm warning you, Brigid,"

"Was she the girl you're crazy about?" I dislike her; she's frail, Blaze."

"You don't know her,"

"Hahaha I don't need to get to know her just to say she's weak, that girl could not even protect herself, was she really going to be your Luna?" 

"I can protect her, Brigid,"

"Sure you did, but wasn't she's just going to be a burden to you?"

"I'll prove you wrong,"

After Brigid's harsh feedback, I exited her room. I know Brigid was strong enough to say those words. Since Summer was a human, it was to be expected that she would have a more fragile immune system than we werewolves.

I turned to face Keahi as I unlocked Brigid's door; had he been listening the entire time?

"Oh.. Things are getting fun, aren't they, Blaze?" Keahi grinned.

"I'm not playing with you both, stop your stupid games, Keahi,"

I'm sure they're planning something for Summer. Knowing those siblings, they are capable of simply sabotaging anyone they despise.

"We're just starting, Blaze,"
