"Grr!" Charlotte growled.It was the first time I had seen Charlotte's wolf form, resembling more of a Himalayan fox."Well, this is quite an entertaining transformation, grr!" Jamien chuckled."Thanks to the brilliant glow of the Flower Moonlight, I feel blessed," Charlotte giggled."GRR!""Who's that?" I asked, bewildered."Perhaps there are other guards undergoing transformations too," Alpha Matthew murmured."It's me, you dolt!""But it sounds like Troy's voice," Alpha Matthew mused."Seems like you're not the brightest wolf either, Matthew. Being a werewolf should make you hear my telepathy," Troy grumbled."Oh! It's a mindlink!" Charlotte squealed.As the realization dawned upon us, we were caught in a blend of astonishment and amusement. The unexpected turn of events added a thrilling twist to the evening, and we couldn't help but embrace the enchantment that surrounded us."Let's enjoy this newfound connection, shall we?" I suggested a mischievous glint in my eyes.Alpha Matth
"How dare you tell me to wake up? Who do you think you are, huh?" I voiced my frustration."Didn't I already mention that I can be sent and play along with human assumptions?" Violet replied."You--""You were sound asleep after basking under the Flower Moon. Don't you know that your energy could go to waste? Get to work and earn your blessings," she grumbled.Suddenly, a firm grip made me wince in pain.I opened my eyes to find Violet biting down on my right arm."What on earth are you doing?" I gritted my teeth."You're so difficult to wake up, Mum," she replied matter-of-factly.I couldn't help but chuckle at her determination. "Well, I should be grateful for your unconventional alarm clock."Violet released her hold, a mischievous grin spreading across her face. "You're welcome, Mum."As I rubbed my arm, a mix of pain and amusement filled my heart. Parenting certainly had its unexpected moments, and Violet's unique ways of rousing me from slumber were a testament to that.With a n
"What on earth are you doing!" I grumbled this time."Oops! I'm sorry, Mum. It seems to be a technical mishap," Violet replied, quickly covering her own mouth in fear.I wiped the greasy cream off my face, which now felt excessively oily due to the explosion. The aroma of curry only made me feel queasier."Are you alright, Mum?" Violet asked, concerned."I'll be fine as long as you stop causing chaos," I growled."I won't cause any more chaos," Violet muttered."Why do you seem more and more like Kylo?" I questioned."Maybe I'm destined to be like him," Violet said before darting away."Hey!""Leave it be, she's going through puberty. She's done a lot in just one week," Alpha Matthew intervened."It's only been five years, and yet everything feels so complicated," I sighed."Indeed, time has a way of presenting us with unforeseen challenges," Alpha Matthew agreed."Seems like our little Violet is becoming quite the character," he added, a hint of amusement in his voice."Yes, indeed.
I’m eating my lunch. I noticed Randy and his friends laughing at me. Randy Is Alpha Hughes’ son, the leader of the Highcrown Walkers Pack since our grandpa passed away. My dad is the older cousin of Alpha Hughes. He’s one of the most powerful warriors in the Highcrown Walkers Pack. My dad can’t take grandpa’s place for reasons I don’t understand. But people say it’s because since I was born lots of the younger wolves died for no reason.I didn’t get the right answer until now. My dad was silent the whole time and kept telling me to practise even though I hadn’t gotten my wolf by now. They’ve been bullying me for the past year. They don’t like it when I stay at Volvo High School because they think I’m useless. I was a weak and incompetent beta.“Lauryn Anderson, please go to the picket room right away. Your brother is picking you up. You should get to the hospital for a checkup today.”All eyes were on me. I got up and put my lunch away. I sprinted to the picket room while carrying my
“You’ve heard it all, right?” “Mark?” I stared at Mark with fear now. Randy walked up to Mark and raised his eyebrows. Mark was so hooked he grabbed Randy’s collar. Everyone there was shocked. Including Jammie and Abbie who ran away from that place. “Screw you!” Mark shouted at them. Randy smiled at Mark. “You don’t have to go through the trouble of defending a weak man, Mark.” Mark tightened his grip. “You are a coward, Randy.” “It’s better to be a bully than a werewolf who doesn't have a wolf until she grows up,” Randy replied. Mark punched Randy in the face. Randy’s down on the floor. His cheek is bruised. “Would punching me in the face change the fact that your sister is just a weak human?” Randy asked me. Mark’s jaw stiffened, he cupped his hands and walked over to Randy. Mark forced Randy to stand up and Mark was gonna bang him against the wall. I grabbed Mark's hand without thinking any further. “S-stop it, Mark.” “Why are you still defending Randy, Lauryn?" Ma
“It’s Alpha Hughes.”“Come out you bastard, don’t protect that damn boy again!”Mum and Dad looked at each other. Dad went out to Alpha Hughes. “What happened?” I asked Mark. “Randy snitched on Alpha Hughes. He twisted the facts,” Mark answered. “Wait, what happened before?” Mum asked us.Mark was silent, but pulled my hand and showed it to Mum. “What happened, Lauryn? Did they burn your hands?” my mom asked.“Chloe uses eucalyptus oil before she touches my hand,” I replied.“Did you ever tell Chloe about your allergies?” Mom asked me.I shook my head.“Go take a shower now, Lauryn!” My mom gave me a quickie.I was shocked when Mom got angry. Mom told Mark to get up and treat his wound with a cleanser. Mom left us, she approached Dad who was arguing with Alpha Hughes.I didn’t really shower when the fuss got worse. I came out after I changed.“Look, you defend werewolves like her?” Randy pointed at my face in irritation.“You are the honourable werewolves here. Are you sure you’re
“Eugh … my wolf’s name is ….” The man looked at me strangely, however, he told us to quickly put a handprint on a document and come back there the next morning to be given admission to Ethereal Hunters. The next day we gathered in the meeting hall. I get weird looks from some people.“Why do they keep staring at me? Do they know if–”“Shut up, Lauryn. You know what? Just play it. Don’t act suspicious in front of them,” Mark interrupted.I was silent and watched an old man give a sign on my dad’s back, then mom. It was like a tattoo made of red liquid. Now it’s Mark's turn to get that tattoo. Mark told me to stay behind him. I nodded even though I was so scared.‘I thought you wouldn’t come here.”I turned my head and found Alpha Matthew standing next to me. “I…”“It’s beetroot liquid mixed with tattoo formula.”I nodded awkwardly and now it was my turn. The old man looked at me strangely. “How old are you, Miss?” “18 years old,” I replied dubiously. “You look terrified. Did som
Break time has arrived. I’m already in the cafeteria enjoying my lunch. I can’t stop thinking about the whisper I heard a few hours ago. Lorraine suddenly showed up with her friends. “You shouldn’t be enjoying your lunch here, Lauryn,” Lorraine mumbled and put her tray on the table. “This is a public place. You have no right to kick me out. Anyway, I was the first one to sit here,” I said. One of Lorraine’s friends protested to me. “You’re the new student here. How could you give us this shit?”“Is there something wrong with being a new student here? Since this morning, you’ve been acting like you’re the owner of the Ethereal Hunters. Girls, you’re just snot-nosed kids hiding behind your parents’ titles,” I shot back. “How dare you!” Lorraine shouted at me. I gave Lorraine a glare like I’m annoyed by their presence. Lorraine picked up her tray and left me. She grumbled but I didn’t care about any kind of bullies. If I’m weak, I’ll get the same treatment as before. All the studen
