Chapter 42 Cereals
Never have I imagined the day when I would willingly give another supernatural race information regarding the Lycans. I never revealed the information to them about our hideout. I only tell them about minimal facts, like their short temper and aggression toward others who dare step foot into their territory. I can only guess that Ajax and Indigo are trying to get clues on the possibility of the lycan’s hideout without having me break my promise as the pack’s beta. Currently, we’re back at Indigo’s private headquarters back in human territory in order to avoid complications and suspicion over why we were out in the woods for too long. We made a report about Max before, which the humans didn’t receive as good news since they had an agreement with Maxwell before about peace between our races. Now that Max is free, there is no telling what he will do next.The next day, they commenced a lockdown on the entire city, leaving me little time to talk to either Ajax or Indigo. Indigo has be

Chapter 43 Raining Monsters
Getting to patrol with Celine is probably going to hurt my ear more than my feet as we walk along town. She’s been talking nonstop, and I could not even remember half the things she said because I could not relate to them. I take back what I said a while ago. I don’t think that I want to act human. I just want to go and become a wolf and get lost in the forest. I AM GOING DEAF AT THIS POINT! I decided to try to focus on looking around, hoping that something would distract me from listening to her. Fortunately, Duncan managed to catch up with us and is responding to Celine, by which I mean arguing with her about whatever it is that they are talking about. Humans. They’re just birds, specifically chickens, that can’t see to control their mouth. My eyes start to scan every dark alleyway. My wolf eyes allow me to see around every dark corner, while my nose lets me smell anything that would be invisible to our eyes. So far, everything has been peaceful, except for the two chickens bes

Chapter 44 Hear Me
Shrieks of terror envelope the street from the hunters as the gremlins begin their attack. The stench of blood fills the air, and the sound of ripping flesh continues along with bloodcurling screams. There is no doubt that humans are the first ones to fall, as the attacks have been sudden and happened at night, where they are at a great disadvantage. I turn to my friends to check on them and see how they are doing. Celine and Duncan seem fine, and they are defending themselves pretty well. I turn to a nearby gremlin and bare my teeth on instinct to scare them off. I’m grateful that the night shrouded us because I would have been caught if it hadn’t. It also gave the gremlins around us the idea that I was a dangerous predator that they should be wary of, and they immediately cleared the premises, allowing me to get to my friends quickly. “Are you guys alright?” “Compared to the others, we are doing well!” Duncan yells over the noise. “Let’s get to the others and get ourselves some

Chapter 45 FriENDS
My father is gone. The reality of it keeps sinking in every time I wake up. Sleep can’t fix or change reality, but it does bring the comfort of not worrying about it. I’ll admit that what I was doing was unhealthy. It’s something that I should face sooner or later, but in my situation, it’s a rather difficult thing to do. I could not talk about my problems with anyone. I could not even talk about it to my human friends because, as far as they knew, my father was already gone—at least from the story that I told them when I got here. The only person, or werewolf, that I could really confide in is Ajax, whom I refuse to talk to. I refuse to trust him again. He had made several attempts to talk to me, but every time he did, I would slam the door in his face. I didn’t go unpunished when I disobeyed an order during an emergency. After making a recovery in the infirmary, I was given a week of suspension. Well, not like getting in trouble or getting kicked out of the academy is any of

Chapter 46 Cries of A Desmondus
I darted past Ajax and ran out of my room for the first time in days. I didn’t get that far when Ajax grabbed my wrist and pulled me back. He holds me firmly at his side and addresses the other students who have gotten out of their rooms after hearing the alarm out of curiosity. “Stay in your rooms. The alert is at the facility. There’s no need to leave your rooms unless the alarm is on this building.” Ajax calmly orders them back. The students hesitated for a bit but soon began to retreat into their rooms. After they’re gone, I start to try to free myself from Ajax. “We’re done, Ajax. Let me go!” A growl escapes me when I whisper the words out. His strong grip is making it impossible for me to break free from him. “I don’t want to cause a scene, so let go.” “So do I.” He avoids my gaze while keeping his hold on me firmly. “Stay in your room. Like I told the others, you don’t have to get involved.” With the way that he clenches his teeth and how nervous he looks, I have a feeling

Chapter 47 Locked Away
My worst fears have come to fruition. The instant I opened my eyes and saw that I was in the hunter's holding facility, my wolf went into a frenzy. I was locked up in a small room with no windows and only one exit. The bed is in a corner, and the only other fixtures are a sink and a toilet. At the top corner, there’s a camera, which allowed them to realize that I had woken up and destroyed my room in my wolf form. Well, the most damage that I have honestly done is scratch the walls, which were apparently made of durable metal. I don’t know how many days I have been held captive here, but all I know is that I have been tranquilized three times because of my rampage. I guess that much is enough for my wolf to realize that nothing will happen if we continue to trash around. Meals are being slipped through the small compartment on the door, where a little tray hangs in suspension. I was scared and confused. No one said anything. I couldn’t hear anything outside. I have been waiting to s

Chapter 48 Diona
It’s the first time leaving my white prison, and I feel conflicted with different emotions. For one, I feel scared because I don’t have any idea what’s going to happen to me. I’m afraid, nervous, and happy. They told me that I was going to meet up with Markov Belemeire, Holly’s father. It’s not Holly’s father that I am looking forward to meeting, but Holly herself. Is Holly going to be with him? As much as I am excited to see her, I can’t help but feel afraid of what she’s going to think of me. To them, I am nothing but a beast. The hunters escorting me are even more wary. I can see their tense movements, even if I am already handcuffed. There are about four of them—two in front and two at the back. One of them is a werewolf. It’s hard to believe that I had conversations with them before. How they are treating and looking at me right now feels like they are handling a beast rather than an ally whom they used to fight with. It’s saddening, but I have to accept the fact that this mig

Chapter 49 Caught in a Bind
The day of the trial came, and I came in as prepared as I could be. The cuffs are scratching my wrist as my hands are bound in front of me. I was being escorted by four hunters. During these past few days of conversing with my lawyer, I thought that I would have gotten used to the criminal treatment, but it seems that those feelings have resurfaced when I am met with a bigger crowd. I was led into a courtroom, where I was escorted to one of the front podiums facing the lead hunters and leaders. According to her, the trial will be among hunters so they can disclose the rules amongst each other about what to do with a creature like myself. The crowd and the judges are all hunters. Men and women all wear tight, dry fit black tops, showcasing their scars and muscles while crosing their arms. They were all looking at me. I feel terrified, especially when I am led to the center, where everyone in the room is free to stare at me. I can feel the hatred and distrust in their gazes when they

Chapter 50 A Temporary Alliance
I was so surprised to see Marian behind the doors. I never expected that I would be seeing her again. My hands clench. I want to look away, but at the same time, I can’t. The thought of meeting my friends often troubled me while I was in my cell. I thought of ways to explain the situation to them, but nothing seemed to come to mind. How could I tell them the whole truth about myself without getting looks of disdain? I am of a different race from them—a race that they consider a monster. Marian walks confidently to the front. When she manages to pass by me, she looks in my direction and surprises me when she suddenly smiles. Her pink hair is in a high ponytail that sways behind her when she passes me to head to the front to join Diona. I could not speak a word and silently followed her movements. She looks different, or more accurately, her demeanor is different now. “My name is Marian Atkinson. 37 days ago, the orcs attacked a small part of town, raiding and taking the women capt

Chapter 51 First Day As A Supernatural
It takes a while for me to get used to the collar around my neck. I never imagined that I would get to wear them, but here I am, strapping the cursed neckwear around my neck. Still, if I think about it, wearing the collar is way better than being locked up so I guess that this is a small price to pay for my freedom. I get out of my room and find Indigo waiting for me. At the moment, he is the one assigned to carry the remote that controls my collar. I vaguely remember Max being in a similar position as I was, only he had two guards with him the entire time. I guess that I should consider myself fortunate that they think that only one guard is sufficient to watch over me. Indigo and I didn’t talk on the way to the academy. With what happened, I don’t think that there’s anything we need to talk about anymore. I am sensing a little bit of distrust coming from him, which is understandable considering the risks that I put us through. Honestly, he was a father figure for me at some point
