The Beginning Part 8
"No."
In the midst of almost being controlled by whatever it was that enveloped me in this dark place, I clenched my fists. My desire of wanting to know more lessen as my mind kept going back to Ajax's eyes that stared at me with warmth.
No matter how little, no matter how absurd, I must cling onto it and not let it fade.
"Claire...!" The voice called me once more.
But I remained unbothered. How can I listen to these voices when I didn't even know them? What if they were only lying and trying to control me?
I wasn't born to be someone to let that happen.
More than anything and anyone, I knew myself and understood what I wanted.
And right now, I chose and want to understand Ajax.
With a resolute mind, the voice of Ursula who claimed to be a witch and member of the Jaderoot Order, slowly faded. In another second, my eyes opened.
"Ah, you're awake!"
A voice of a young w

As Ether stared at me with a pair of raging, desperate eyes, my heart pounded loudly at the thought of the person mentioned and I found myself glancing over the past.Ajax.He was the one who treated me fairly when everyone did the opposite. Even knowing he was an alpha and I was an omega, he never made me feel there was a line between us, that we were from different worlds, that there were no possibilities of living in peace together regardless of our races. When I reached the age where I began to understand my position and his position, I began to treat him with so much, more respect, than ever, and even tried to distance myself so as not to cross the line."You can still call me by my name," he had replied then. The mahogany trees around us had dried leaves dancing as they fell to the ground, the wind humid and my eyes couldn't help but feel enthralled by the image of a handsome boy. From a certain point, he looked like a live painting, and I, his

The strong scent of sandalwood and rain came, filling up my senses.I could feel the ground colder than the days the North experienced a heavy pour of snow and ice. Those days weren't the darkest ones but they hid the sun enough to make our pack live more carefully in every hunt.The hunters.Whenever they went out of our main village where everyone in the Crescent Glacier Pack resided, I would try to catch a glimpse of them and watched how they showed how mighty and brave they were from head to toe.Navi had always talked about them before going to sleep and in every word he uttered about them, I began to feel a deep sense of excitement inside me. I couldn't help but compare the hunters to those knights and soldiers in the story book I had read. For me, their job was the most amazing in the pack. Exploring the outside world and gathering food for everyone... Just how great and fun would that be?"You want to be a hunt

"I heard you in your sleep. You're calling someone named Ursula. Ursula is a witch from hundred years ago. She's supposed to be dead, yet, you were able to talk to her. Being able to talk to witches... My grandmother once told me such power exists. I dare not believe it until you, Luna Claire, did it. Whether you're this pack's Luna or some other pack's future Luna, the fact that you possess such great power makes you special, Claire."Feeling my chest twinge at the word 'special', I sighed. "I'm not special, Shila..."There was a pause before she replied. "You are, Claire."Then another voice came, "Can you stop exchanging cheesy words for a while?""Ether!" Shila called out. "What about the betas guarding the hallway?""I took care of it. Anyway, Claire, the ritual is going to be over tomorrow. If we're going to escape, we have to do it as early as now," Ether exclaimed, loudly whispering through my door.I could already

*Rendall*I had always hated omegas.They were the lowest of the ranks among all races. And when one was in the most bottom part, one would not hesitate to bring forth selfish wants and needs.They had always been that way. Omegas desired to be looked over, watched over, taken care of, desired back, loved back. Always needing something, always wanting something.And when one wanted a piece of something but failed to achieve it, there would be a possibility of succumbing to destroy it instead.This was what I hated the most to happen and thus the reason why I kept reminding our Alpha King Ajax, particularly on his obsession with Claire Hanzel. The damn omega who had liked the Alpha Prince - now Alpha King - for who knew how long had been.Ajax was the leader of our pack, the Crescent Glacier pack of the Northern Woods, the biggest Werewolf Crescent Land among the rest in the world, and since he had now become our leade

Currently, he was facing Elder Zarah and Elder Monsai. These three old people were the greatest mentors of the previous leaders. They had always taken part of the discussion regarding the pack, particularly on the decisions of the alpha for everyone's sake."Ismael, how long have you known Ajax? My grandson is not just an alpha to be used. He has his own heart to follow too," Elder Zarah said.Although there was no presence of the Alpha King, the topic seemed to have stayed about him and his mate. It had been this way for the past hour. As Zen and I expected, the Three Great Elders had opposing views regarding Ajax's mate.Unfortunately, right after we had reported the whereabouts of the Alpha King, the three of them began to speak out their thoughts. Thus, Zen and I were asked to stay until the "discussion" was over."What heart does he need to follow? Zarah, do you mean to say Ajax should be paired with that low omega? Can you really bear th

*Claire*It was frightening to think I had found comfort from the dark.The moment my eyes opened, a face of a beautiful woman welcomed me. She had introduced herself as Alix."I told you not to be afraid. I am your friend," she told me, her tone softer as it had been the first time she talked to me."Sorry..." I felt ashamed by my hesitant and stubborn attitude, especially remembering those times when I strongly refused their warnings about Ajax.They were right and I was wrong. What both Ursual and Alix told me and warned me about―they were all the truths I had ignored, time and time again.And for what reason? Love.I became too blind to see what was real and had ignored all the truths because of love. But no matter how I desperately wished to have an opposite situation, it would still go back to the fact that Ajax had rejected me.Now, he had a mate rightfully for him, as everyone had exp

"Who's the Alpha King again?"Before anyone of us could answer his question, I sensed an extremely dark aura nearing us. A voice immediately rang into my head, "Claire! There are werewolves about to come. They are heading this way! They have humans with them with special weapons. Quickly fled this place!"I recognized it as Ursula's voice. Frowning, I briefly told Ether, Shila, and Garix what Ursula told me. With no time to explain anything, we immediately moved out of the entrance of the secret tunnel.Garix, being a highly skilled type of beta, immediately transformed into a wolf, and Ether and Shila signaled me what to do."You have to go, Claire!" Ether exclaimed, pushing me to ride Garix's back."Shila, you go over here too!" Moving fast, she pushed Shila to my side.I felt my hands turning cold. "Ether...? What are you...?"Ether looked at me with eyes that reminded me of my mother and brother on th

What was that...? Whose voices were those? And what were they talking about?The wind came harsher as I began to feel my body colder, my dozen questions about the dream I had slowly vanishing as my consciousness returned bit by bit. I could, however, hear the sound of some birds chirping. Shivering slightly, I slowly opened my eyes.The moon was no longer there but the sky was still a little dark. Glancing to my side, I noticed I was inside a wooden house a bit familiar to me...I quickly got up, urging to confirm whether it was real or not. Then came a voice."Claire!" It was Shila. "Are you okay?""Shila..." I felt my head throbbed, then followed by an intense pain from my back."Don't move too much, you're still healing!" Shila said, "You've been asleep for the past two hours. We escaped from those members of your pack and headed to another route. We found this... This abandoned house. It belongs to your great grea
