Chapter 134.*.*Lucas sucked in air while being alert, hating the evil smirk of Azura who had stopped pacing up and down the room and was giving him wicked glares."And we are doing so, politely. The Pack has gone through a lot and we would need time to recover" he spoke and turned to look at the corpse before continuing."And I believe you have also been through a lot too" he returned his gaze at her."We all need time to heal"She chuckled maniacally and clenched her fists."And you think you are the only one good with tricks, right?" She fumed."I guess you do not know Cora sold the Pack out! It is written in the agreement we signed!" She laughed again.Lucas suddenly recalled the deal Cora was always concerned about and swallowed, feeling that is only what might be used to hold the Pack down."The luna of the Pack sold Mountain Howl out and we must all abide on it" "That woman is no Luna to this Pack! She is worse than a traitor!" Max spat."I don't care, Max. When she came to t
Chapter 135.*.*It was finally daybreak and the morning dew made the surrounding woods damp and the atmosphere cold.Cole finally flicked his eyes open as he tried to look around the unfamiliar woods surrounding him. It was not like the thick forests surrounding them in Mountain Howl, which alarmed him.He sat up properly and tried to stretch but felt a sudden pain surging through his body, making him stiffen instantly. He felt as if the pain has been piling up inside of him and had suddenly erupted.Scowling, he tried to stretch when he felt something clenched into his fist. He opened his palms and saw it was the locket pendant, and all his memory returned."Cora" he mumbled under his breath, recalling all that had happened in the fortress and how Hazel had helped them escape from the wolfdom."Cora!" He called out and began looking around the place for her. Remembering how she had shape-shifted into a wolf so they could come to the human world last night.He kept looking around unt
Chapter 136.*.*Boston stood watching them as the flower he was holding fell from his grip to the floor with his eyes wide open.He shifted his gaze from Cole to Cora and rested them on her stomach, then at their clothes, before returning his gaze to her face. He didn't need to look at Cora twice before knowing what she is and he suspected they might have come for some questions.Realizing they were observing every move he was making and might note some things about him, he cleared his throat and batted his lashes, and swiftly crouched to the floor to gather the flowers just to buy enough time to regain his composure.Cole and Cora were still watching every move he was making without saying a word until he stood after gathering the flowers."Don't mind an old lad like me. My hands are getting shaky these days" while avoiding their eyes, he walked to the vase on the table and removed the dry flowers, replacing them with the freshly picked ones."Don't blame me for getting too old" he
Chapter 137.*.*Flashback (Night time, Uncivilized Human World)The full moon shone above the sky so brilliantly that one would not stop admiring it. The night was cozy and warm and the trees danced to the call of the wind.A blanket was spread on the ground, around a clearing close to the woods. Two young couples lay on it with a lamp next to their head while they looked up in the sky, admiring the beautiful moonlight which shone directly on them.The young lady curled herself around the man, placing her head on his arms while he drew her closer to him, also admiring the glistening moon."It's beautiful, isn't it?" He asked, his eyes gazing at the moon."Yeah... I love it" she mumbled with a wide grin spread across her face while he turned to look at her and smiled before returning his gaze to the sky.They remained that way for a while until her countenance changed, then she turned to look into the dark. With a shrug and a frown on her face, she turned to face the sky back but was
Chapter 138.*.*FLASHBACKTwo blacksmiths were at the back of the cottage, trying to mold and create bullets with some villagers there to help them.Ethan was in the basement where they had some weapons arranged on the wall. He was feeling nervous, pacing up and down restlessly. The full moon was in three days and he was scared they were not ready to face the monsters yet.Boston knocked on the door even if it was open and stepped into the room. He stood in the middle of the room and placed both hands behind his back and Ethan stopped pacing and turned to face him."What is it?" He asked almost immediately with a snap in his voice."It's the brothers__" Boston spoke after swallowing hard. He was as scared as everyone else was.'What about the brothers?" A heavy frown appeared on Ethan's face."They're skeptical about it all. They don't think we have all it takes to battle those creatures""Where are they?" He grunted."The living room" Ethan did not hesitate and just walked past Bos
Chapter 139.*.*FLASHBACKThe three men were fully equipped as they dashed into the cold night, not knowing what to expect. George had a bag hung across his shoulders while holding a hunter gun filled with bullets made of iron. Right in his belt, he had some daggers made of steel and silver while a head torch was fastened onto his forehead.Boston and Ethan had torches also fastened onto their foreheads. Boston had a gun filled with brass bullets and they were daggers made of iron fastened to his belt while Ethan's was filled with steel.Just as they were about to move further into the woods, he came to a halt and called out to their attention, making them stop dead in their tracks.He stood there, looking at them as they walked back to him, peering into his eyes and waiting for what he was going to say."Boston... George" he swallowed feeling so sorry for them."I'm sorry for dragging you both into this mess. I am also sorry for our brothers that we've lost""You didn't drag us int
Chapter 140.*.*"Is it dead?" Ethan managed to speak hoarsely."I... I don't..." Boston stuttered, as shocked as Ethan was."I don't know... It has been that way since I shot at it" he finally said and watched the moving figure of Ethan, walking toward the wolf."What are you doing?! What if it isn't dead?" "Then there's only one way to find out. We can't just stand here and watch, doing nothing" He ignored Boston and walked to the beast lying on the ground next to the tree.Boston kept mute and gawked as he squatted next to the beast and carefully observed it. With great fear gripping him, Boston held on to his gun and cocked it, ready to pull the trigger at the slightest provocation.He looked on and swallowed hard, scanning as Ethan was carefully observing the beast. He finished and stood erect then turned to look at Boston who was watching him."It's dead" he announced and stepped away from the beast while Boston lowered the gun."What? How?" Boston was bewildered.Ethan said n
Chapter 141.*.*Boston turned to look at Cole who had asked him that question and heaved. Then he lowered his gaze to the locket pendant he was holding and spoke without looking up."During the next full moon, me, Ethan, and the rest 12 new members of the armory ventured into the woods with mainly silver weapons." He began again and looked up at Cora, wondering how she was feeling, hearing about the chaos between the humans and her species."We were well equipped with a lot of silver weapons and machines and that very night, we were able to kill four of the wolves and brought them back here to the cottage" "Even if we lost a few of our brothers, others from the neighboring villages were still joining us and we created an army with a dozen blacksmiths creating deadly weapons for us" he twitched his lips."For months, we were able to regulate the killings by the wolves and we lived in peace. But we were not satisfied because there was not a battle we go to that the wolves doesn't kill
