The Purple Moon Pack woke up in the middle of the night with the heavy ringing of their alarm system. There was an infiltration in their backyard. And the air reeked of fresh werewolf blood. Not an auspicious sign at all. Tristan surveyed the gruesome scene in front of him. The Greyhounds had struck again, leaving a trail of bloodied bodies in their wake. He turned to his second-in-command, Beta Victor."Any survivors?" he asked grimly.Victor shook his head. "None, Alpha. They came in fast and took everyone by surprise. These guards in our pack didn't stand a chance.That kids lived long enough to describe those monstrous wolves before he succumbed to his wounds. "Tristan clenched his jaw as he saw the severed limbs of the young lad still tremble with it's phantom pain. This was the third time the Greyhounds had attacked in the past month, and each time, they had grown bolder and more brutal. He knew he couldn't let this continue.He had been the one to let the point slide withou
"I don't care about being discreet. Whoever did this has decided to step on the wolf's tail. I don't even care about the money I lost, I just want to make them pay."It was a new challenge for Ryan. He was used to being the undisputed Lord of the underworld in his terrain. His foster father was out of the country minding some of his own business while Ryan ruled over his self proclaimed empire. Everybody shook with the mere mention of Ryan's name let alone dare to cross paths or stand against him. Yet somebody did just that. They tipped the marine officers about a cargo that Ryan was smuggling into the country. His ship was stopped at the previous dock. An insult to Ryan's reputation itself. "I understand how you feel. I can hardly keep my own nerves calm. But nobody knows about the tip off yet. They think the ship is stuck at regular custom check up. We don't want anybody else to know we got any competition. My boys are already on it. They will soon find out the bastard who
" That was dope! "Josh was over the moon with excitement. He had expected Ryan to do something out of the bag but he did not expect it to be that literal. Ryan however did not share his excitement. The show was done. The bracelet was acquired. He was busy admiring it's subtle shine, dangling it in the air, in front of him. Josh was like a big pup whenever he was excited. He was literally over Ryan. Scratching his thighs and waiting for his reaction. When he got none, he sat up. He too looked at the bracelet and then asked, " What's so special about this? "Ryan did not answer at first. But in his head he could not stop thinking why it indeed was so special amd unique." Do you wish to hear the real story behind this? "Ryan asked Josh, still looking at the bracelet, absent mindedly. Josh eagerly came forward. His puppy eyes watching like a curious child, " Of course I do. It really has a story? Is it a sad or happy one? "He asked. " You decide that. I can only do the nar
Ryan literally ran inside his home after jumping off his car even before it could brake. Sherry was standing at his porch with her hands over her hips. His sharp nose could easily pick up the oddity in the air. "Hey Ryan, what's the joke?"She haughtily asked. "What are you talking about, Sherry?"Ryan asked with his head arched in an angle at her manners. "Don't play dumb with me! My stuffs are missing, and I know you were the one behind it." "I have no idea what you're talking about. What stuff?"He literally was clueless. He looked impatient. But his impatience was not due to Sherry's accusations. He could sniff somebody else's presence. Somebody whose scent was not supposed to there. Somebody who did not belong to his household. "You know, my favorite lipstick, my phone charger, and my lucky socks and..."She hesitated. " And what? "" AND MY UNDERWEAR! "Sherry yelled with almost tears in her eyes. "They're all gone, and I bet you're behind it."She sat down with a t
The thing was there were no guards or even surveillance cameras on Ryan's premises. He never thought he needed one. Besides he lived there with his werewolf boys. They needed their privacy to morph or shed. Ryan needed to premises only to his pack. Besides, who would dare to ransack a mafia's terrain. What criminal would dare that? Not anyone clever not even a stupid one. Ryan could not deny Sherry's claims any longer after she made her point. The reddish finger marks were still very visible. And Ryan was as furious as he was annoyed. "ow dare they! " He hit the middle of his table with the back of his hand. Everything trembled and shook over it and it was about to fall. " They broke into my house? This is unacceptable!Did they forget who I am? I want answers"He yelled looking at poor Josh. "I want to know who's behind this!""Yes, boss. We'll find out. Let's start by reviewing the CCTV footage from the cameras on the roads leading to our house."Josh didn't look like i
Ryan led Sherry and his men through the empty streets until they arrived at the garage. As they entered, Sherry could barely see anything in the dark and desolate space.As she approached the garage, she felt an eerie sense of dread creep over her. The door creaked open with a rusty groan, revealing a dimly lit interior. The walls were lined with peeling paint, and the concrete floor was stained with oil and grime. The air was thick with the smell of gasoline and musty, damp earth.In the shadows, she could make out the silhouette of a car, its headlights casting a sickly yellow glow that flickered ominously. The walls were cluttered with tools and spare parts, their outlines indistinct in the low light. The ceiling was draped with cobwebs, and the corners are shrouded in darkness.As she stepped closer, her eyes began to adjust to the dim light, revealing the scattered debris and forgotten relics of a bygone era. A rusted gas canister rested in the corner, its label long since worn a
Ryan's grip tightened around Sherry's hand as she reached out to touch the wall again.Perhaps it was her way of showing her resentment. Letting Ryan know that he could not control each and every step of her movement. She tried to pull her hands away from his iron grip, obviously, without any success. "What are you doing?" he asked, his voice low and dangerous.Sherry looked up at him, her eyes flashing. "I'm trying to find a way out of this," she said defiantly."There's no way out,not untill I say there is" Ryan replied, his tone cold and final.Sherry pulled her hand away from his grip, and the tension between them crackled like electricity. "Don't tell me what I can and can't do," she said, her voice rising. "That is not mentioned anywhere in our contract. "Her voice was firm but it melted away as soon as Ryan advanced upon her and stepped right on top of her defiance. He took another step closer to her, his breath hot on her face. "I'm not telling you what to do. I'm telling
It was clear that the situation was not normal. "What could have done this kind of damage?"Sherry wondered in her head,barely able to look at the gore and grime but curious nevertheless,"It looks like a very large canine. Maybe a wolf or a bear?"She exclaimed after watching the zillion bite marks on the man's body and chest. He was bit and scratched by what was evidently a wild and rabid beast. A larger member of the canidae family. "A bear? That's unlikely."Josh walked in from behind. He was not there when the first batch of Ryan's men had rushed in. "But these wounds are deep and vicious. It could only be a bear.A wild dog or even wolves don't have such strength or... " Sherry was trying to make a point when Ryan cut her off as usual and jumped right beside her. "Let's not jump to conclusions just yet. We need to investigate this further."Sherry watched Ryan give Josh a peculiar look and Josh seemed to understand and nod in agreement. They examined the body more closely.
