Face twisted in annoyance, grumbling, and dissatisfied. Ben continued grumbling things while his eyes remained sharp and frowning at the group in front of them. He still can’t understand why he agreed to this. What’s worse, he no longer had the choice to turn back.
“If the alpha finds out what happened, we’re going to get in so much trouble.”
He grit his teeth to hide the fear crawling on him. He’d known Duncan since they were pups and he knew the alpha wouldn’t agree to such a thing.
Yet Selene’s face remained radiant, happy even as they got closer to the young alpha’s mansion.
“That’s why we won’t tell him.”
She had this tingling inside of her, having a sense of light-headedness from the adrenaline of having done something meaningful this time around.
<When everyone finished their task, the group huddled in the hut. All of them filled with excitement at the binding.Each one had this twinkle in their eyes, still unable to believe their luck.Alfred set the group up properly, having the strongest in front, mainly the ones who can at least transform, those being Marco, Jules, Pietro, and Marcel, behind them were those that can use an ability, which were Helena, Aster, Fuchsia, and Melissa, the last in line were the ones who hardly showed any ounce of power, only being able to bare their fangs and claw, but only having strength the same as a normal human. Composed of the eight youngest.“All right, we should do this one by one to not put a toll on miss Selene.”Alfred announced with a firm tone, back straight with his hands back, standing upfront like a soldier that was readying his soldiers.The youngsters all nodded, their faces straightening, but their smile did not fade along with the glimmer of joy in their eyes.Hearing this, Sel
Days passed and somehow they were managing with their tasks, thanks to Alfred’s guidance. Despite that, there were things that were taking time because of certain challenges.Like right now, they were scampering about the whole place, trying to get things done, but some youths were having trouble with instructions and would end up running back to Alfred to clear some things, which causes a delay in their work.“Everyone watch out!”Selene screamed aloud, noticing a part of the ceiling that they were working on was crumbling. Just her shout was enough to make everyone scatter. It didn’t take a minute when the wood and parts of the roof fell on the floor. Thankfully, her warning avoided any injuries among them.“Don’t worry, Miss Selene. Will fix that.”Marco scratches his head, forcing a smile because they were struggling with repairs.“Are you all right, Miss Selene?”Alfred approached her, seeing how she can’t stop watching the youngsters scurrying about to do their tasks as fast as
After convincing Duncan and accepting the duty given to her. Selene immediately receive orders from Julieta to tend to their new members.Of course, she had no idea of what to do, so she’s left fumbling about. For the time being, she helps the group get settled in their new home.They got sent to one of the house a few meters away from the mansion which was behind the hedge maze.Selene stood in shock, swallowing hard as she stared at the rundown and filthy shacks with no doors. Its windows barely hang, and the roof and floors had holes and missing pieces.It was clear the place has been abandoned for years, neglected and left to rot.“I’m so sorry. I didn’t know there were such rules like this.”She felt down, having thought they’d welcome the group within the mansion like they did to her. But it seems the pack was giving a different treatment to them.“Don’t worry, Ms. Selene, what’s important is they’ve accepted us and allow us to stay here.”A female with a bobcat hair says, smili
After pulling Selene aside, Duncan took in a deep breath, rubbing his temples because of the upcoming headache that was increasing with each minute.“I’m guessing you don’t know the reason they don’t have a pack.”He grumbles, lips twitching from holding on to his remaining temper.“Ben did say something about it.”Clueless, all Selene could do was bite her lip while lowering her head in shame.She remembers how Ben said some things about the group, but she couldn’t believe that, especially since she sympathizes with them.She understood well what it felt to be called useless, so she believes the group of was not like that.Once of the things that made her believe this was the fact that they manage to take her away from Ben. Of course, she couldn’t say that to Duncan, knowing what will happen.The reply only made the young-alpha grumble, before letting out an exasperated huff. He was clearly holding on to his rage.“Then why did you think it would be good to bring them here?”Duncan c
It was the first time that the mansion had become that lively, though the noise came from the vagabonds running around, panicking after the mishap that happened.No one expected the old Vagabond to step up and move in front of them, taking the young-alpha’s attack head on.Duncan, being too close and filled with rage, could not stop in time. But thankfully, he shifted his swing within the last minute, making the cut shallow. But it was enough to cause continues bleeding on the vagabond’s chest.“What was that about?”Julieta hissed, glaring at the young-alpha, whose actions were too irrational and unexpected. She couldn’t understand what could have triggered it.Duncan remained unbothered by the loud nags and murderous stare of the head maid.He sat on the last steps of the staircase, watching
