In a few seconds after that, my eyes are no longer seeing two hungry and furious wolves but twenty of them of the same size. Their deadly eyes were giving my wolf cold feet, especially when some of them jump on top of me to block my way out. "State your name and purpose," he added. "Well. I am here to see Alpha Romulo. He had my brother's bike." telling the truth is the least I could say for them not to feel suspicious of me even if their glares already did. But I cannot deny my voice is cracking. "And why would Alpha Romulo has your bike when he had collections of them in the parking lot right now?" he started interrogating my wolf. I regretted coming into his mansion instead of surprising me with his appearance like he always does back in the woods and at the back of our school. No matter how hard I try to explain to them the truth, they will always throw questions at me to make it more uncomfortable. And they all love to see my wolf getting paranoid.
When I got into the living area, the entire room was already empty. My eyes could see nothing but empty and broken bottles of beer scattered throughout the floor. I have seen a few humans coming out of the house, but their numbers are not enough for me to say that it was all of it. There were around forty humans including Aiden, Penelope, and Conrad present at the party. But where are the rest? My wolf was having a hard time sensing everyone's presence when all I could smell were the alcohol flooding the floor. "Aiden!" someone screams my brother's name. And I am pretty convinced that the voice comes from Penelope. So, I flash from the living area and landed in front of the swimming pool. There I found Aiden and Penelope in the corner while surrounded by four furious and hungry werewolves. Without hesitation, my wolf jumps on top of one of the wolves, bites his neck, and throws him to the swimming pool. As soon as his dense fur got soaked by the water, his wolf
Right after putting on some clothes, the three of us surrounded the single table in the dining area with Penelope seated while Aiden and I are patiently standing across from her. Her unexpected confession about those who attacked them intrigued me the most, especially when the alpha that I fought earlier bestowed me with this unknown prophecy between me, Penelope, and Aiden. He claims that whatever I decide in the near future about Aiden and Penelope will lead to our lives being on a roller coaster. I killed two of his betas yet he bestowed me with a piece of advice and this prophecy in the middle of our battle. After delivering that news to me, he stopped chasing me and simply look at me running away at the speed of light. That was how I got the chance to reach the apartment unscratched, still breathing, and heart beating. He could have killed me back there because he was extremely furious at me for killing his betas but my wolf sensed he was having second thoug
"Because similar to that wolf we met earlier, Alpha Ezekiel also wants me to kill Penelope in exchange for my job at the school and a second chance to get me and Aiden back to the pack," I confessed finally. "What?" this time, Aiden and Penelope were the ones who blurted out in disbelief. Aiden and I talked about a lot of things recently. But that one thing about Ezekiel's proposal was always missed. My conscience was having a hard time bringing that up because I know how important Penelope to him is. "And he's giving me less than a week to do that," I confessed which made Aiden and Penelope's eyes and mouths dilated. "Aiden, I am the big brother but I don't what to do. I cannot kill Penelope." then I clenched my head. "I mean, if I am going to do that, you would be devastated. You would certainly despise me. Turn your wolf against me." I helplessly lifted my head to the ceiling, trying to put something in my head. Answers. Suggestions. Or anything that could he
My conscience wants to follow Lambert to explain what he witnessed about me earlier but it was Penelope and Aiden who stop me from reaching the main road. Penelope, instead, informed and convinced me she will be the one to explain everything to her younger brother about everything. What makes me more skeptical is that she wants to confess to her brother the truth about her, believing he will understand. Their agreement combined has left me with no choice but to let it slide temporarily. However, agreeing to them doesn't mean my wolf will remain silent. I made sure to inform and threaten Penelope that I will keep an eye on her brother to make sure he will not talk. Aiden disagreed as I expected but I also made sure he can't stop me even if he is my brother. I cared for him and Penelope but Lambert is a human and a threat to us, werewolves. After notifying Aiden and Penelope about my plan, they also told me about their Sunday schedule. It happens that Penelope's parents ordered he
On top of that, Aiden and I have not seen any signs that Penelope has my werewolf venom running through her veins. She possesses untimed anger issues but it is not enough to prove that she will be turning. "All right, then," Romulo said. "I'm getting interested to know what was so special about this woman. But that doesn't mean I will agree with you and Aiden to be part of my pack." "What do you want then?" could not help but ask when I already have nothing to offer Romulo. I can't head to work if I don't have anything for Aiden and Penelope when I get home. After Romulo told me what he really wants, I flash to the convenience store to start with my normal life as a human, a brother to Aiden, and a breadwinner to the family. Later in the evening, I was completely excited to inform Aiden and Penelope of the news about my discussion with Romulo. However, I have no plan on telling them that our new alpha is interested to meet Penelope. I know Aiden better than anyone. He will proba
On my way to work, my helpless brain was not thinking about Lilith and Mark but the one who showed up in front of my apartment. Based on my observation, and as far as I could remember, his wolf was unfamiliar to my senses. I am not even convinced if he is from the Moon Walker pack or Alpha Romulo's pack. His scent was not identical to either of them. Then a blurred piece of image suddenly flickered in my brain. Right. He might be a member of the pack who attack the party last night. Or maybe he was a close relative to those who my wolf killed. Halfway through to the convenience store, the bus that I was on suddenly stopped moving even if the streets were completely empty. I did not get the chance to glance at the road or each corner of the street when I trusted the bus driver to do his job. But when I managed to glance ahead of us, my eyes dilated again when two hungry and furious wolves were blocking our way. Most of the passengers started to utter profanity, not knowing what l
"Penelope and Ethan are right about their claims, Aiden," Conrad said. "Even my wolf got offered by Alpha Ezekiel that once Aiden, Mark, and Lilith failed him, he will assign the mission to me in exchange for a permanent house and lot, a car, and one million dollars." "What?" Ethan blurted out, he even rushed to Conrad's spot and was about to reach out to his neck but I manage to stop him before everything goes wrong. The proposal may sound ridiculous to me but I believe Conrad cannot betray me. Though I know Conrad needs all those things Ezekiel proposed to him, he will not fall for them. Conrad and I have been honest about our friendship. Truth be told, I trusted him more than Ethan, my real brother. There is no way he can do it to me. "You even considered the mission, didn't you?." Ethan added while looking Conrad in the eye. Among the four of us in the infirmary, Ethan is the most expert about our werewolf abilities. That is one of the reasons I cannot argue with him furthe
