Kessler looked at me seriously. "Yes, but we must be careful. We don't know what they might be facing."I dressed quickly as Kessler did the same. We left the house and headed into the forest, following the sound of the howling. The morning was cool, and the dew still covered the grass, creating a mystical atmosphere around us."Do you have any idea what they might be trying to tell us?" I asked as we walked.Kessler shook his head. "Not exactly. But wolves don't usually come this close to populated areas unless something is wrong. We need to be prepared for anything."We continued advancing, delving deeper into the forest. The howls grew louder and more frequent, guiding us toward their source. Finally, we arrived at a clearing where we encountered an unexpected scene. The same wolf pack we had seen the previous night was there, but this time they showed no signs of aggression. Instead, they seemed worried and agitated.Kessler raised a hand in a gesture of peace and stepped forward.

"Please, don't hurt me!" the young man pleaded, raising his hands in surrender.Kessler maintained his defensive stance, not letting his guard down. "Who are you and what are you doing here?" he repeated, his voice firm but less threatening.The young man swallowed nervously. "My name is Marco. I didn't mean to cause any trouble. I was just... just looking for something I lost."I scrutinized him closely, searching for any sign of deceit in his face. His eyes seemed sincere, but we were still uncertain of his intentions. "What is so important that it led you to break into someone else's house?" I asked, trying to sound more sympathetic.Marco hesitated before answering. "It's... it's an amulet. A pendant that belongs to my family. It was stolen from me, and I followed the thieves here."Kessler and I exchanged glances. His story was plausible, but there was still something that didn't add up. "Who stole it from you? Why do you think it's here?" Kessler asked, lowering the flashlight a

Outside, the night was darker than ever, and the sounds of the forest seemed to envelop us, amplifying the sense of impending danger. As Kessler carried me in his arms, I could see the others following: Marco, Rick, and Lucas, all tense and alert."What's happening?" I asked weakly, trying to stay conscious."There's more to this than we thought," Kessler replied, his voice firm but worried. "The amulet... it's not just an object. It has a power that many desire."We ventured deeper into the forest, tall and dense trees surrounding us, casting unsettling shadows. Suddenly, a howl echoed in the distance, followed by others, like a sinister symphony drawing nearer."The pack is here!" Lucas exclaimed, looking into the darkness. A group of wolves emerged from the trees, their eyes gleaming with determination. Kessler, the alpha of the pack, approached the lead wolf, the same silver-gray wolf we had helped before, and gave a nod of recognition."We need your help," Kessler said, looking a

The calm of the dawn was deceptive. Although we had repelled the attackers, I knew that the real threat was far from over. The amulet's power was too great for the men to give up so easily."We have to move," said Kessler, his voice breaking the silence. "This place is no longer safe. We need to find a more secure refuge and prepare a long-term strategy."My father nodded, his expression full of concern. "But where will we go? We can't keep running forever.""I know a place," Kessler replied, his gaze determined. "An ancient sanctuary in the mountains. No one knows about it, and it's protected by the same energy that emanates from the amulet. There, we can better understand its power and how to use it to defend ourselves."We prepared for the journey, knowing that every moment counted. I packed the essentials while the wolves surrounded us, vigilant. I felt a growing connection with them, a silent understanding that gave me strength. Kessler, Marco, Rick, and Lucas moved quickly, orga

"Remember," Kessler said, his voice firm. "We fight for our home, for our freedom, and for the power that protects this amulet. We will not let it fall into the wrong hands."We nodded, determination in our hearts. The moment had come. The men emerged from the forest, their faces hard and determined. But this time, we were not the same. We were stronger, more united, and better prepared."Hand over the amulet!" their leader shouted, his voice full of hatred and greed."Never!" I responded, my voice resonating with a strength I didn't know I had. "This amulet does not belong to you, and we will not let you take it."The battle began, fierce and brutal. The wolves attacked with ferocity while we fought with everything we had learned. I felt the amulet's energy flowing through me, amplifying my movements and protecting us.Amid the chaos, I saw Kessler transform into his wolf form, leading the pack with unwavering bravery. Lucas and Marco fought alongside him, each showing impressive ski

The full moon was slowly rising in the sky, its light bathing the sanctuary in an ethereal glow. We knew tonight would be different, charged with a special energy that could change everything. Kessler had briefly spoken about what was to come, but now, with the full moon nearly at its zenith, the moment was approaching.We gathered around an improvised bonfire inside the cave, trying to keep warm and calm. Kessler stood at the center, his expression serious and determined. His full ascension to Alpha wolf was about to begin, and we all knew it would be a grueling and painful process, yet filled with promises."Tonight," said Kessler, his voice firm but with a note of vulnerability, "is a night of transformation. Not just for me, but for all of us. As Alpha, I'll be able to better protect you and lead the pack with greater strength and wisdom.""What do we need to do?" I asked, feeling a mix of anticipation and concern."I need you to remain calm and trust the process," Kessler replied

The precarious peace we had achieved after the battle was abruptly shattered when my father pulled me aside that night, his expression filled with concern and something darker that I couldn't identify at first."Eva, we need to talk," he said, his voice low but firm. He led me to a secluded corner of the cave, away from the fire and the rest of the group."Dad, what's wrong?" I asked, feeling a knot forming in my stomach.He sighed, his face lined with worry. "Eva, I've been thinking a lot about everything that's happened. This world of wolves and amulets, it's... it's too much. And Kessler... I'm not sure he's someone we can trust."A cold shiver ran down my spine. "What do you mean? Kessler has been by our side, protecting us. He's part of this just as much as I am."My father shook his head, his gaze intense. "Eva, Kessler is a wolf. He might have good intentions, but he's still a dangerous creature. I can't allow you to get closer to him. I can't allow you to be his girlfriend."T

The silence that followed his words was palpable, as if the world itself had stopped. My father blinked, his face a mask of disbelief and confusion. "What are you saying, Lucas?"Lucas closed his eyes for a moment, as if searching for the courage within himself. Then, before our father's astonished eyes, his body began to change. His human form faded away, replaced by the majestic shape of a wolf.The transformation was quick, but each second felt eternal. Our father's eyes widened, his face paling. "This... this can't be. It's not possible," he murmured, stepping back, unable to process what he was seeing.Lucas, now in his wolf form, approached slowly, his eyes filled with deep sadness. With a fluid motion, he shifted back to his human form, his expression pleading. "Dad, it's true. It always has been. I've hidden this out of fear of your reaction, but I can't continue like this. You need to understand that I'm part of this, part of the pack."Our father staggered, seeking support f
