RONAN: "Okay again!" I shouted at one pair who seemed out of it as they kept tumbling at each other. 'My gosh. What happened? Are they drunk?' I thought, scrunching my face in horror as they tripped over each other's feet failing to execute the move I instructed for them to do. Seth jogged up to me, mirroring my expression, "Good Goddess. What happened to our warriors? Their bodies are like jello. They look ridiculous!" "I know." I said, annoyed as the pair I was watching turned themselves into a pretzel. I felt myself deflate as I gawked at them. Francis walked up to me, "We're so out of practice. I didn't realize that it was this bad. They can't even do the basics anymore." We watched in growing horror as they tumbled down to the ground, unable to support even their own weights! "We need more wolves, and a teacher, someone who's good." Gabe spoke as he patted himself with a towel. I didn't even realize that he was standing behind me. "But who?" Seth frowned, "All our best warr
Silence engulfed the whole forest as I continued to stare at Francis with a blank face. The only sounds that were heard are the chirping of birds and the rustling of leaves as the wind blew. Gabe was the first to break the silence, "Zannicus....?" "Why?" I asked and they looked at each other first before turning their attention back to me. "We need more wolves." Francis said as I cocked a brow, "And another teacher." "Why me? There are plenty of others who fit the position of being a warrior and a teacher What makes you think I can fight? And who suggested that I should train with you?" "Because I've never met anyone who's as strong as you Zannicus. And also because I saw the way you flipped one of Dylan's friends. You twisted his wrist then you grabbed his neck and threw him over your shoulder. Its obvious you either trained yourself or someone trained you. And I'm the one who suggested it." Gabe finished but I just stared in contemplation while they began to shift. Though, I wa
ZANNICUS: When we arrived at the house, the pack rather, everyone zoomed into their homes and upstairs to no doubt do the tasks I assigned to them. It was four twenty eight so I went directly to the kitchen. Seth's sudden appearance surprised me as he grabbed a bottle of water from the fridge. The event that transpired here hours ago left me on high alert as I felt Seth leaned back against the counter. "So, what was your decision?" I raised my brows in question, "Are you gonna train with us?" I nodded and turned back hearing him sigh quietly, "Yeah, starting tomorrow." "Are you sure you'll be fine?" I smiled feeling my heart flutter at the sound of concern behind those words. "Of course. I can handle myself Seth, don't worry." "Mmm. Okay then. I trust you. Besides, you can definitely handle yourself knowing who you are now." He said as I felt him coming closer to whisper the last part. He continued until he was right beside me. I looked at him as he peered down at me. "But if
SETH: It was quite amusing to see my best friend blushing beet red when he was caught ogling at Zannicus when he came into the room. And it made me smile a bit when I heard him muttering under his breath, 'they're seeing what they're not suppose to see'. I wanted to run up to him and cover him with my shirt but I didn't. It seemed like he wasn't in a good mood. And also because, I felt like I shouldn't. It's like something was stopping me. We were currently at the table eating the food and the guys never stopped teasing Ronan about it. He glared at them but it just sent them into another bout of laughter. I joined in from time to time but stopped when he directed that glare at me. If only looks could kill, we'd probably be 50 feet deep underground by now. I'm pretty he's going to come up with a plan of revenge. I still snickered though as he pouted for the remainder of the evening. After dinner, Nic left to get Zannicus and returned with him and this time with a shirt on. 'Than
ZANNICUS: Eighteen minutes till one and I'm sitting on the edge of my bed, too excited to even take a nap. I look forward to our run, especially since Seth is joining for the very first time! I lay down for a while, wiggling my feet and never looked away from my phone. And just as the clock struck one, a knock resonated through my room, to which I flew up and off my bed rushing to open the door. I beamed and let Seth inside, "You ready?" He nodded, looking just as excited, "Are you?" He smirked and I grinned in reply. "You go first. I'll meet you outside." He nodded and yanked off his shirt. Swallowing, I quickly turned away feeling my cheeks flush. I heard him chuckle followed by ruffling of clothes. I heard bones cracking, groans then a bark. I turned to see him in his wolf form. 'He looks so cute.' His tail wagged before he went to the window and jumped out. I took off my clothes and quickly shifted, taking the time to heave a breath before leaping out of my window and landin
SETH: The three of us managed to return on time and a couple of minutes after Nic and I plopped down on the sofa, Ronan came down. The silly smile never left my face. Nic grinned like a cheshire cat at both me and Zannicus which resulted in Zannie blushing like a tomato while we were on our way back. My wolf kept growling while mumbling something and whimpering then cut me off again. I tried to reach out but he blocked me. Which was the very first time it happened to me. Oddly enough, I feel different while we were making our way back. I wasn't sure if it was a good different or a bad one. My wolf's sudden change in behavior the moment we arrived at the spot where Nic prepared for Zannie's mini birthday party distracted me most of the time. Oh, and Veronica insisted we exchanged numbers since I'm now a part of their inner circle. Which pleased me greatly. And something about her approval left me giddy. Ronan's scent as well as gaze had us peeking an eye open. I was, and still am,
ZANNICUS: The warmth on the back of my neck roused me awake and I took the time to stretch any kinks out before sitting up with a sigh. A glance at my clock showed that I had missed breakfast, and I'm so grateful Alpha Ryder isn't here. I swung my legs over the bed, the chill from the floor was enough to dispell any remaining lethargy from my body. I shuddered, smacking my lips in attempts to remove the dryness in my mouth. Why is it that I'm always like this everytime I wake up? I drank enough water- ohh.....I paused, scratching my neck, 'I went straight to bed after our run and forgot to drink some water.' But still though, I pouted, I always drink water yet I still end up with a dry mouth. I took a shower and changed into black jeans and plain dark blue shirt but not before checking on my bruises and found that they've all healed. While ruffling my hair, I glanced at the clock to find that is was nearly lunchtime. "I'm starving. Ax?" I paused, frowning at the wall, "Are you alr
ZANNICUS' POV:Its twelve forty two and I'm sitting on the edge of my bed feeling excited for the run. I lied down for a while and as time passed, a knock echoed in my room just as the clock struck one.I stood up and opened the door smiling as I stepped aside and let Seth in. I closed the door and turned to him."You ready?"I asked and he nodded walking over to my window."Are you?"I smiled and nodded as well."You go first. I'll meet you outside"He nodded and yanked off his shirt. Swallowing, I quickly turned feeling my cheeks flush. I heard him chuckle and the ruffling of clothes.I heard bones cracking, groans then a bark. I turned to see him in his wolf form.'He looks so cute.'His tail wagged before he went to the window and jumped out. I took off my clothes and shifted.I took a deep breath then jumped out, landing gracefully on the ground. I looked up to see him gaping in awe.He looks so funny right now.__________SETH'S POV:I. Have. No. Words.He's gorgeous-no ethereal.
