KILLIAN'S POV There had been an explosion at one of the gas stations belonging to our pack in the human world. The companies were set up in such a way that they kept passing on from alpha to alpha. Each time an alpha's reign ended for some reason, the next alpha goes with our unique alpha seal to claim the company. All the staff knew was that the company owner had changed. Only the branch managers who were from our pack, but living in the human world knew what really happened behind the scenes. The damages were fatal, but no life was lost as the workers had been in a staff meeting when a damaged cable started giving off electric sparks. The government demanded that we paid for carelessness and compensate the affected neighbors. Coupled with the reconstruction going on in the pack, it was going to be a terrific week for me. No rest at all. Our park needed so many sources of income and that gas station was one of the biggest. We consumed thrice what normal humans consumed, so we didn

KILLIAN'S POV The violent clank of their metal swords directed my ear to where they were training. I stopped for a second when I saw Erika charging at Ari with full force. There was no way in this world her sword skill could match Ari's at this point; not when she hadn't even trained up to a month. But her slash did pack some weight. I confessed when I saw Ari's feet shift back as she blocked Erika's attack. But it took Ari just two blows on Erika's stomach with the helm of her sword before Erika came falling to the earth, holding her belly. "I'm impressed," I began clapping for them. Erika glanced up at me as if in suspicion of my arrival. "What are you here for?" "Can I see you for a moment?" I asked Ari. Ari nodded and followed me to a corner. "Something has come up again. I need you to go to the human world to spy on someone for me. I'll give you the details at home," I said to her. I turned around immediately and Erika was behind me with her arms folded. "No!" I heard he

KILLIAN'S POV As I had promised Erika, I made out time and began training her myself. She was smart to assimilate all the fighting techniques I taught her. Among the three weapons, I taught her to use, the sword was her favorite. She loved that feeling of the hilt of the sword rotating in her palm as she swung it. On the third week of training her, the moment my sword clashed with hers, I knew there was something different about Erika now. In that single instance, her fierce gaze fell on mine as our swords crossed, I could sense the ferocity of a female wolf, not from her wolf but her rather. She was ready to control that beast now. Only a diamond breaks a diamond. "Congratulations, Erika. You're ready to traverse to the ethereal realm and conquer your wolf," I said to her. For a brief moment, she looked like she couldn't believe what I had just told her. "Tell me you're joking," she said, her eyes welling up with tears. I withdrew my sword and stabbed it into the ground. "You

KILLIAN'S POV What in the name of the godde— Alek had woken me up from my nap. "Look, Killian," he said. "What in the name of the godde—" "Behold, your mate has tamed her wolf," Alek shut me up. "No way! Hell no! This can't be real. I'm dreaming, right? Alek?" "I was watching her while you slept," Alek remarked. "She has the determination of a leopard." I marveled at the white werewolf standing before me in the temple. She looked nothing like any other I'd seen before. Though she stood still at a place. It seemed was still struggling to get acquainted with the transformation. Suddenly, she shrunk back to her human form and melted on the floor, her breathing tattered. I noticed a smile of victory on her face, despite how exasperated she was. "You can rest now," I said to her, hoisting her into my arms. The main thing had been achieved now. All other training was minor and could be done by herself. Alek was flustered with happiness as I took Erika back to the house. There

KILLIAN'S POV Two days later, I let Erika go on her first adventure outside her park. I assigned a group of seven scouts as her guards. They were wolves whom I could rest assured of her safety in their hands. With Erika out and the seven scouts accompanying her, I went off to the human world with the information Ari had given me to check out the schools she had suggested for Erika. The schools in the supernatural world weren't as equipped as the ones in the human world. As wolves, we tended to not fully welcome technology and human advancements. Not all of us showed this tendency, but some strongly despised technology, seeing it as something which damaged nature. They wouldn't let schools get built in their packs cause trees were felled in other to make papers. The first school on the list of four was a pure werewolf school, but it was run by witches. It was located in a desert in the human world but made invisible and intangible to the normal eyes by the witches' magic. "No," I s
