In a glimpse, I found myself battling with humanoid wolves, defending myself from their attack and attacking them back at all costs with my sword and the techniques that I learned from my previous training."Should we not transform yet?!" I asked Fenris through a mind-link while he was attacking two werewolves at the time."We cannot use our swords when we're in our wolf form. We need to find their weakness first and we need a sword to make that easier!" Fenris jumped above Dark Summoner's tail when it almost hit him.I bowed my head as another humanoid wolf almost scratched my face with its super long, pointed claws. I used my time freeze ability again and attack some black-eyed humanoids, finding the right spot to kill them. The time limit wasn't enough at all as additional Dark Summoner's arrived once again.We also tried cutting the black-eyed wolf's head but a new head just grew on him the moment they started moving again. "Fuck you!" I sliced one black-eyed humanoid wolf in hal

Vilka smiled without her eyes moving an inch. "Can we talk, Kira?""Sure, we can." My laugh sounded awkward. "We're already talking," I said while tightening my grip on the doorknob."Uhm..." She looked around. "Can I come inside?""Huh?" I almost lost my grip on the door. "I mean, yeah, sure, why not?" I managed to chuckle as I widely opened the door and welcomed her.She walked inside and wandered around before she sat on the couch.I slowly closed the door and didn't lock it, just in case. I swallowed deeply before I faced and walked toward her."What is it that you wanna talk about?" I asked while I remained standing just in front of the couch."You seem..." Vilka bowed her head. "You seem cold to me lately and I cannot figure out why." She gasped. "Have I done something wrong? Have I said a word that offended you?"I bit my lower lips as I intertwined my hands together behind my back."Vilka, I don't know what you're talking about. I'm n

"Kira." Mom showed up in the dining room.I sighed in relief as I loosened my grip on the dagger in my pocket. "Mom." My breath was still running away from me. Goodness, I was being more paranoid than ever."Can't sleep?" Mom asked.I nodded before drinking my milk."Something's keeping you up at night?" My lips thinned. "No, mom. It's just that… I'm not sleepy yet.*Mom took water from the fridge and put some in her glass. She then drank it before she looked back at me again."Do you wanna see something new?" Mom suddenly asked."What new, mom?" I smiled. "Magic again?"Mom chuckled. "Just come with me, I will show you something amazing." Mom's face was always brightening up every time she was talking about magics or the stuff. I could see how she missed her powers after being just an ordinary human for a very long time.I held onto

My brows crossed but I pursed my lips when Fenris' eyes looked deeper into my soul."Are we gonna talk about him again?" I sighed as I intertwined our hands together. "I told you, he is simply a close friend and nothing more than that."He rolled his eyes. "Just make sure he isn't just using you to get information about us. You're risking our safety just by simply talking to a vampire.""He is trustworthy, Fenris. Even Vilka trust him.""Yet your vision tells you that Vilka is gonna kill you.""You now think that that vision is accurate?" I raised my right brow."Expect the worst so you won't be disappointed, at the end.""Yeah, but… you can't only see the worst in people. That's a sad and stressful world to live in.""We live in a stressful world, what do you expect, Kira?"I looked away and puffed a breath. "Okay." "Okay? Okay, what?"

Fenris glanced at me, and I clenched my jaw. No, I wouldn't say I liked the idea."Uhm… Fenris and I can get it for you," I suggested. "So you can just rest here. I'm sure you're exhausted from what just happened." She looked at Fenris before she looked back at me. "Are you sure? Maybe it's too much to ask. I can really do it myself, I just need a companion who knows where it is located.""I'm sure, Atasha. My husband and I can get it for you, right, Fenris?" I smiled at him despite my trembling lips. I wanted to glare so bad at him but whatever.He nodded. "Yes, of course. Just wait for us. I also think you should rest. Stay here and we'll come back with the plants your cousins need, okay?"Atasha sighed as her shoulders dropped. "Okay, then, thank you." Her lips thinned."No worries, Atasha." I shrugged. "We'll go now." I then pulled Fenris' hand to exit the mansion.I rolled my eyes a couple of times while we were walking at the tall grasses, waving some of them with our hands so
