"What brings you here at this hour?" I took a deep breath and looked Jo in the eye. "Jo, we need to talk about the beast Zaza mentioned. The one linked to the bandits. Do you know anything about it?" Jo's brow furrowed, and he shook his head slowly. "I don't know much. The beast is a myth around here, something whispered in fear. But no concrete information, I'm afraid." I glanced at Karim, who nodded slightly, indicating that he was ready to take on the task. "Karim," I said, turning to him, "I need you to look into this. Find out who or what this beast is and hunt it down if necessary."

My mother, Keenan. I can't leave them, I must get back. So once again I push myself one last time and when the beast's head is close to mine, I lash out and bite just bellow his right ear. He whines from pain but still doesn't release me. He then turns his head up and howls and then soon later, six more wolves appear around us. I know that this fight is really over now. I won't escape the seven wolves, especially with my wounded legs. So I stop struggling. Now, my fight is over. But if not now, I will still find a way to get out.

Then he was gone, and I had never felt more alone in my life. Paxton jogged up next to me, blinking his grey eyes rapidly. "Darling, my incredible eyes are just a small part of a very big package, massive even." He flashed his charming smile with a wiggle of his brows, but it only lasted a second as he seemed to pick up on my mood. "What's going on, Charlie?" I shook my head, mumbling before diving into the water to cross the river. "There are bears in the forest." "There are also wolves." He said, sounding more relaxed and almost as if he were trying not to laugh at his own joke. We had never had a bounty for a bear before, so we tried to avoid them when we could.

I even tried to murmur some explanation, but his hand wouldn't let me. “I have to find a way to get you out of here before… Fuck, what the hell is that thing, anyway?!” Noah grunted, his tone carrying not only confusion, but mostly worry. “It smells like a corpse, but… I can hear it moving.” “It’s a monster…” I murmured as quietly as I could, as he moved his hand away slightly. “A chimera.” "A chimera?!" he cursed, and in that small slip, in which he raised his voice just a little, the creature heard us.

Plus, my doctor said my hormones were out of balance, and I needed a way to relieve the stress. However, I already had a wolfhound at home. Salem Tarr would definitely have taken issue with it. Sensing my hesitation, the vendor kicked the beastkin. "Get up and show the lady your muscles." The beastkin rose to his feet slowly. Chains bound his body, and he could only remove his black T-shirt with one hand, instantly revealing his lean, pale muscles. However, his skin was covered in bruises and scars.

His claws trembled at my throat, caught between killing and clinging. And then, with a sound like glass shattering, Zara’s last thread anchored into his spine. Her body went limp, crumpling into the mud, but it was enough. Maxim reeled back, the Beast howling in defiance. His roar wasn’t human. It wasn’t Hollow. It was something in between, split down the center, fractured but still holding. But when his gaze caught mine again, I knew which side still lived. The Beast didn’t know my name—but Maxim did.

She went on and on about everyday life, like she was reporting results to a loan officer. The wind swept through the cemetery, carrying the scent of burning memorial candles from a nearby grave. I felt a pull. From the sky—or from beneath the earth. My spirit began to fade. In this world, my "purpose" had been served. I was this family's bad debt—now written off.

The EMT lady cried in frustration. “I do not believe our perpetrator is a who. It shows more of a what, from the appearance of this death scene. Perhaps, a male black bear that preys on humans. They are hostile toward people, and whatever did this appears aggressive.

It could be lurking in the shadows. Stay wide-awake chaps, do not let your defenses down! Have your guns on standby and flashlight focus!” Another police officer shouted.
