He gave me a slight smirk and dabbed his finger to his right temple, “Great minds think alike, aren’t we so similar now?” I rolled my eyes in annoyance. Why did I even bother asking? Knowing him, he’d do whatever he wants without thinking of the consequences anyway. I didn’t want to stay long in our spot anymore so I told him to follow me up to my room. After I jumped towards my room, I looked down at him and noticed that he was still there like an idiot, he looked uneasy and unsure if he would follow me. My forehead knitted, how long is he going to make me wait? “Aren’t you coming?” “You’re not trying to kill me again, are you?” He says with a look of doubt. “Last time I jumped, a huge ass sofa came my way.” I let out a light chuckle. So that’s what he’s worried about, well he looked sincere when he said that he didn’t tell on me so I should give him a second chance. “Get in before I change my mind.” I was about to turn around but he

*Derek’s POV*As soon as I reached a safe distance in a far away area, I threw Seff off against the large tree in front of me in irritation. My patience was at its limit already, all I could think of was how to beat the shit out of him from all the stress that I'm going through.He groans on the ground, “Are you trying to break my back? Man, that shit hurts.”“Stop playing around. I'm already busy enough with pack matters, I don’t have time to play with you.” I said, “You only have two options; Leave the fuck us alone, or we settle this right now.”He raises his hand in surrender and stood up, “Woah woah, aren’t we being too aggressive in the introduction? I already told you I'm not after Venus anymore … well not romantically at least. And come on, spare me for now dude. I'm literally wearing boxers in the woods.”I crossed my arms, “Then why bother snea

I let out a sigh of frustration. Who am I kidding? This guy is too spineless to even face Alpha Derek. If I'm going to die, might as well do it with the intention of caring! With that in thought, I mustered all of my courage left and ran to get in the way of alpha Derek, which of course made him snarl my way.“What are you doing? Move out of my way.”“W…Where are you going? Are you going to the enemy alone?”He shoves me away without hesitation but that didn’t stop me as I trailed behind him closely. I kept telling him that I’d be dangerous but he still insisted to go alone. At that point I had no choice but to shift to my own wolf to hope for a little chance to stop him.I growled as he stared at my form. There wasn’t a pint of fear in his eyes that it made my wolf almost cower in the corner.‘This is seriously not what I had planned! Why can’t you just stop, alpha?!’He too

*DEREK’s POV* “Stop there!” A voice not far from me appears behind me.I took the time to see who it was and was surprised to see the witch who I’ve hired to take care of Venus before. She was panting hard as she reached where I stood, a wave of confusion washed over me as I watched her concerned gaze.She says, “Are you planning to go there alone?”“What are you doing here? I did not call for you.”“I know what you’re trying to do. And believe me, it’s not that easy! If you go there alone, what if you even make things worse? Werewolves fight along with their pack members, so why are you going alone?”“It’s not your damn business to ask me those questions, witch,” I replied before proceeding to walk.I don’t care. Whoever it is, I won’t forgive anyone who hurts my mate. I'll make them regret even touchin

Our conversation was cut off short when a sudden earthquake shook the ground beneath us. It was a sign that things were getting worse. Judging by the direction where it was coming from, they may have already destroyed the borderline defense that was built to ward off intruders.And to my dismay, it didn’t take long before we saw a witch in front of us. Slowly approaching us with murder in mind. The sky darkened and I felt the bloodlust running rampant in the air around me. Goosebumps started to form on my skin and I felt the fear consume me as I make eye contact with him.The High Priest.“Where is the child?” The High Priest asks, and as always, he wore the usual white silk cloth that covered his body that reached up to his feet. It always made me barf whenever I see how he always dresses up like he’s as clean as white.When in reality, his soul was darker than any color in this world.I took a step back and glanced at the
