Like the rest of her gang, Haily felt a raging flame in her heart whenever she looked at Yusria. Unwavering and confident in the manner she carried herself, the wolf-less trash exploited the excellent genes of the werewolf race to their fullest extent.Though she couldn't shift, Haily had an inkling, one she refused to acknowledge, that Yusria's strength was on par with her own.And this made her restless.Haily wanted to capture the Emperor's attention. She wanted to become the personal guard or even servant of the Emperor's future Empress. To secure a good future for herself in the Eastern Crescent Empire, the home of her dreams for the past two years, she wanted to impress the master of that empire with her strength, rank, and beauty.But with Yusria around...No! Even if the task was more difficult to accomplish than climbing the back mountains, Haily had to do something. She could not allow the sl** Yusria to snatch the spotlight from her."Morgan, Grizzell, lend me your ears." S
Henry ignored the agitated murmurs of the she-wolves and continued at a louder volume. With their werewolf hearing, he didn't need to raise his voice. But Henry liked hearing his voice dwarfing the annoying chatter of the shaken females."To qualify for a post in the palace, you need to excel in at least 2 of the evaluation topics. After that, the more evaluation topics you successfully complete with excellent marks, the higher your post in the Crescent Palace will be. Is that clear?""Clear, Instructor Henry!" The she-wolves chorused."Good. Now go and get prepared. You have 15 minutes before the evaluation begins." Henry's gaze inadvertently swept over to Yusria. The female was wolf-less but her combat strength and intelligence were above ordinary she-wolves.With her skills, she would have no problem clearing two-three evaluations. But now that Henry had decided to take her to the Research Institute, he needed to keep her out of the Emperor's eye.His expression turned grave as he
The next few days were a nightmare for Yusria. The evaluation topics on domestic relations, foreign affairs, management, and administration kind of felt...well, easy. But even after two days of waiting, she had yet to know what her results were.The scenarios as a whole confused her at first. But once Yusria broke them down into smaller parts and looked at them separately, she had a sense of deja vu. Yusria had been baffled. She couldn't figure out the reason why the scenarios had felt familiar and surprisingly, comprehensible to her.But when she did figure it out, the irony and absurdity of the situation rendered her speechless.In her past life, after Maximillian Adonis marked her as his Luna on her 19th birthday, Yusria learned from the Setting Dawn Pack's Luna and received her teachings for an entire year before Selena took her captive.The duties and responsibilities of a Luna in times of emergency, their method of communication and interaction with other Lunas, and their power
In the back mountain of the steel-grey training facility, five military-style helicopters slowly hovered to the ground."Emperor, we're here!"Dion positioned his pistols in their holster and hopped out of the helicopter. The moment he landed on the ground, the armed troop in the other four copters descended and assembled in uniform order before him."Violet Troop, secure the perimeter! Until his majesty wraps up his business here, no unauthorized personnel should get within thirty feet of the main building!""Yes, Commander Stone!""Good. Now get to work!"The Violet Troop saluted and dashed away to secure the perimeter of the Eastern United Pack's training facility. As a Lykan emperor, one of the most dangerous and powerful creatures of the supernatural world, Emperor Zeonen didn't need protection from anyone.However, his status and position called for such formality.Dion returned to the helicopter. When Emperor Zeonen descended, he took his position on his right flank.The she-wo
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. I'll make sure all those who met the evaluation requirement get on that plane." Head Instructor Tim reassured.Emperor Zeonen rose out of his seat and fixed his clothes. "Good. I still need to cover other training grounds. We'll meet at the Open Convention again.""Yes, Your Majesty!" The instructors chorused.Emperor Zeonen nonchalantly picked up the stack of files in front of him and made his way around the wooden desk. Clapping his beta on the shoulder, he commanded him in a non-negotiable tone."Dion, leave a few men behind to escort the she-wolves. I don't want them to meet any mishap.""Yes, Your Majesty!"Dion was aware of how highly the Emperor valued the she-wolves and didn't dare to take the matter of their security lightly. He needed to form a group of responsible and reliable troops to ensure the she-wolves' security and unimpeded journey to the empire.His eyes took on a thoughtful expression as he followed his Emperor out of the conference roo
In the northern region of Asia, a pristine land of ice mountains stretched as far as the eye could see. Covered in snow all year long, the land of ice and snow gave off a bleak and desolate atmosphere, as the fridge icicles precariously jutting out from the sparse, frozen vegetation repelled the intrusion of uninvited visitors. Right at this moment, in the center of the icy mountains, a grey plane descended from the sky. As the plane drew close to the mountain peaks, a burst of powerful energy surged out. The brilliant flares of bright light enveloped the plane, and within the blink of an eye, the grey plane disappeared into thin air. Yusria watched in great fascination as the flare of light shot forth and shrouded the plane. "Dimensional Teleportation Magic..." That's right. The Eastern Crescent Empire, the ruling empire of the werewolves and supernatural creatures in Asia, the Middle East, and Australia was located in a separate dimension from the human world. The ice mountain
"Come and see, fresh organic spices teleported from India!""Magic gems! Powerful defensive magic gems from the land of magic, Bagdad!""Beautiful wares from China! One set for 3 Magic Crystals!"The she-wolves from the Eastern United Pack walked through the Lower Division Market, the marketplace built below the waterfall of the Crescent Empire in groups of three and four. Goblins and dwarves garbed in colorful saris and blue robes enthusiastically promoted the exotic items on their booths, while pixies and shapeshifters performed magic tricks on a huge platform in the center of the market.The Lower Division Market of the Eastern Crescent Empire was the most prosperous and boisterous region of the empire. Creatures from every background gathered and sold goods from different regions from the outside world without restrictions and supervision, displaying the incredible generosity and tolerance of the Lykan Emperor towards the different races.But even then, the segregation between low
Haily's eyes turned dark with anger. She knew Yusria was purposely provoking her into losing control of her emotions. She wanted her to erupt in anger and commit an act that would get her expelled from the Crescent Empire.But she refused to fall into her trap. Even if it meant gritting her teeth and suppressing her rage, Haily vowed to never satisfy Yusria by doing what she desired. Because at the end of the day, she was a guard of the Crescent Palace and every action she took was under the scrutiny of the Senior Guards.Yelling at a member of the Royal Kitchen without a reason or explanation would only get her in trouble.Haily was fully convinced that Yusria hated her guts and wanted to get back at her for the days back in the training facility. As such, she put even more effort into foiling her plans by forcing a bright smile on her face and swinging the silver gate wide open."Of course, Kitchen Maid Yusria." But even when she lowered her head and amiably gestured for the she-wol
