The Last Alpha Chapter 7I closed my eyes and when I opened it again… there was no Hardurlf on the other side. Oh goodness! What is happening to me? My hands are trembling when I go home because the wound is so deep. I put all the light bulbs outside, and when I go inside—I go straight to my laptop and then search for this werewolf thing. I keep on searching for a cure, and I stumble upon this archived document. My finger is rolling the mouse until a violet flower thing called ‘wolfsbane’ appears on the screen. My forehead creases in confusion about this familiar flower. Its purple like complexity and small petals make me remember the flower that grandma showed us. It says it grows on the riverside or up in the mountains. I paused for a moment before scrolling again. “Wolfsbane is feared by a wolf as well as silver. Wolfsbane can also cure the poison of werewolf.” I pressed my lower lip after reading the description of this plant. There is also some weird stuff going on insi
The Last Alpha Chapter 8Why is he here?! My mind keeps on panicking when Hardurlf and I go inside Captain Elsie’s home. I want to run away because every time he gazes at me, a different sensation makes my skin itch. Captain Elsie didn’t say to me that this man would go here. The silence was deafening inside her home between Hardurlf and me. After a few minutes, she goes out with the snacks from this man on a separate plate with fresh orange juice. I look at the sweaty glass as the water drips—I don’t notice Captain Elsie is talking to me.“Evan, are you okay?“ She asked as I nodded even though I didn’t hear what she said. “Y-Yes! Sorry, I’ve been bothered by something.“ Hardurlf gives me a constraining look. The weight of his stare makes my throat arid in pure palpitation. There’s something wrong with my body whenever he is around. “I forgot to introduce you to this handsome man.“ Captain Elsie says before pointing to him. She continues, “he is Hardurlf. He migrated here
The Last Alpha Chapter 9Some days later, I kept on checking my wound, even at the hospital stockroom. It’s mysterious why this is not bleeding anymore, even though I poked the muscles.I stand up and then get the last roll of free gauze. When I am about to go out of the stockroom, someone is knocking on the door. “Is somebody there?“ the utility asked after three consecutive knocks. I answered, “wait for a second.“ Luckily, he smiled after I went out. “Sorry for waiting, sir.““No problem, sir. By the way, Mrs Camille is looking for you at her office.“ I blink twice. “Did she say the purpose because I am heading to the delivery room.“ He scratches his head. “I don’t know… she gives an instruction that when I see you, I need to tell her that she needs you at her office.“ I pressed my lips after hearing his answer. “Understood.“ This is so weird… I don’t feel tingling pain in my wound. I am turning apprehensive because of grandma’s story about the bite. This notion is no
The Last Alpha Chapter 10“Your place is so cozy—“ “I ask you, why are you here?!“ I interrupt his nonsense as I step backwards with the thick wood clutching my hand. At any moment, my swinging momentum is ready. “You’re rude, mate—“ “I said, why you’re inside my home?!“ I am catching my breath in so much anger toward him. Who the fuck will go inside another’s home without any invitation and late at night.“Are you a thief or something?!“ Hardurlf sits on the table and then gazes his my feet. I feel uncomfortable with his action. “If I am a thief… why I will show myself to you? Also, can you bring that burgers and fries? I am so hungry—waiting for you.“ I would faint right now after he told me he had been waiting for too long. I crouch and pick up the plastic bag. However, when I stand up, my knees are wobbling like gelatin. I stand straight like a motionless man with a thick wood plank and a plastic bag in my hands. Hardurlf heaves a heavy sigh before walking to me. Ev
The Last Alpha Chapter 11Last night was like a nightmare! My lips are sealed because I don’t want to tell it even to Sherriff Christian, Captain Elsie and Madam Camille. Although, I can file a case against Hardurlf for trespassing and physical injury. This day is cold; perfect timing in wearing a turtleneck sleeve. When I look at myself earlier—there’s a mark on my neck that I don’t want anyone at the workplace to see. I go to the Pharmacy to ask for free gauze, and the student curiously asks me.“Sir, is your wound healing?” “Yes, it’s now healing. However, a little bit more because I profoundly stab myself with a knife while gardening.” His face has a priceless expression. “That hurts a lot, sir.” I smile awkwardly at his answer. I bet my lie is influential. “By the way, thank you for this one. Also, please disregard this information.” I go inside and check for Hardurlf’s records. I get a pen and sign that he is now healed. “I thought he still has a session for a m
The Last Alpha Chapter 12A few more days have passed; Hardurlf didn’t show up at the hospital. Madam also didn’t have a notion about what happened… he just disappeared. I asked the guard outside if he spotted that man. Even I hate him for the last time—I still need to do my duty in monitoring his wounds. “Oh… that tall man with amber-coloured eyes? I haven’t seen him for a while. Typically, he will go here once or twice a week,“ he replied to me, and I gave him a cup of hot coffee from a nearby Starbucks. “It’s odd. Oh, if you see him, please tell me right away because we have a medical check-up.“ The guard nodded at me as I went inside the hospital. Madam Camille says I need to go to the Paediatrician’s department. When I went inside the office, the assistant nurse gave me a record of a month old baby. This is the baby named Jeffrey. The first newborn I successfully delivered in my first week.“Good morning, here is the milk recommendation for your baby, ma’am,“ I give him
The Last Alpha Chapter 13I gradually opened my eyes as I saw the ivory ceiling. How did I get here? The duvet and the scent of my pillow gave me extra security when I woke up inside my room. What an excruciating feeling when my bones are crunching even in my slightest movement. I hold my face, slowly squeezing my fleshy cheeks. Last night was a horror in my mind because right now. I can still feel my feet running through the entrails of trees in the forest. I knew it; Hardurlf is the mastermind of these wolves in Forks. However, an image flashed in my mind because he was not alone last night. There was someone with him, and he called him the previous Alpha. I punched my naked body on the bed as I went to the mirror and examined my reflection. This time, there are no unusual hair growths, and my fair skin goes back to normal. For sure, Hardurlf brought me here after I fainted. That man, I will kill him! “For the fuck sake! I don’t want to be his mate,“ I growl in frustration
The Last Alpha Chapter 14Early in the morning of March first, Madam said that I needed to deliver this report. Sir Jeffrey requested my sudden trip to Seattle. I am ambivalent because of all the possibilities that can happen on the way. As I look at the bus window, I can finally breathe relief since I am now leaving Forks for two days. Katy is in Seattle for sure; she tells me her boss will go to Georgia on the fifth day this morning. There are many vacant seats on the bus. I am in the middle near the window as I watch the nature and beautiful buildings outside Forks. It seems the whispering voice is not murmuring. I rest my back on the soft bus seat and close my eyes. I don’t know how long I’ve been sleeping and when I open my eyes… we are now near Seattle. There are also many passengers on the bus. It stops for the second time I wake up. A man goes on the bus and another man at his back. I look at them, but my heart thumps in nervousness because what I see are not the men.
