CASEY The furthest memory stored in my head happened after that snowy night. I was alone with Brigitta. Every afternoon, she would light the fireplace. During that time, I still liked standing in front of the window of Brigitta's house, looking at the falling snow."You haven't spoken to me since you got here, Casey. Don't you like me?"That's when I turned to Brigitta and stared at her for a long time. She got up from in front of the fireplace and approached me. She tried to see what I was looking at outside the window. Because since arriving there, I just kept staring out the window."Calm down, kid. "As long as you are here, you don't need to be afraid of anything," said Brigitta.She returned to the kitchen with two plat

GIN Bang!I spit out my last bullet. I lowered my hand, which felt sore and numb. I removed my glasses and earplugs and put the gun on the table.I felt annoyed with myself for being rude to Casey. I sat in an armchair and let my head tilt up with my eyes closed. In front of me were many paper shooting targets with holes hidden behind the protective glass. I grabbed my shoulders desperately.I still clearly remember first meeting Casey and Brigitta at the orphanage. I'm six years old. Brigitta took me away from the destroyed orphanage and saved me from the social worker's trap.Those bad memories continue to haunt my days. After she took me to the hunters' house, I sat quietly on the floor near the fireplace with my knees be

ERENI groaned and started to open my eyes slowly. I was lying on a dirty and cold floor. Thick dust stuck to my cheeks. My eyes suddenly opened wide."Where am I?" I tried to sit up but couldn't. I heard the sound of metal clinking. "What's this?" I moved my hands, which were shackled behind my back."It's useless for you to try. No matter how strong you are, you will not be able to break those shackles.""Who's that?" I turned to the owner of the voice.A man sat in the chair behind me. Apparently, he was the skinny guy who attacked us with a dagger. Beside him was a stocky man with a bald head."The leader made these handcuffs specifically to restrict the movements of wolves like you. Do you think we are just a bunch of ordinary people? You are wrong!"The man brought his face closer to me without leaving his chair. He grinned and was so satisfied seeing me helpless."Even if you manage to destroy the handcuffs, I might need to remind you because your brother is in our hands.""Mal

RAFF"So it was you guys who were the intruders, huh? Where is the baldy?"A blonde woman in black clothes stood in front of us. She wore boots with high heels. Her lips are a very bright red color and look very striking."You!" I was so angry when I recognized that woman. "Why do you keep bothering and harassing us? What do you and your friends really want?"Dominic took a step forward and was at my level. He reached out his left hand to hold me."Alpha, please go first!" Dominic grinned. "Let me finish this bitch!"Dominic shouted excitedly and jumped towards the blonde woman who was seen starting to move her teeth.I, accompanied by a beta, searched further into the empty building. I walked calmly, accompanied by him. We checked the rooms one by one and looked for my younger siblings. When we arrived at a luggage storage room, someone suddenly stood before us."I was careless earlier," said the stocky man who had previously blocked us.Is this the man the blonde woman was looking f

CASEYFor the first time, I returned to the academy after a period of truancy. I walked ahead of Gin. I don't want to argue with him anymore.According to Brigitta's message, I only have two choices. Return to England and live with Ensio in the countryside or remain in Terrasen City, but always be under Gin's care and supervision.I knew Gin wouldn't like either of the offers Mama made, but the only way to prevent me from being taken away to England was to take the second option. I must always be with Gin no matter what happens.It's not that I hate the second option; it's just that what I was worried about happened. The students in this academy kept glancing at me sharply. They think I'm a flirt. After the Werner brothers, now Gin? That could be what they wanted to say through the gazes directed at me.At the end of the hall that leads to class, I saw Malik standing there with his usual cold face. I stopped walking and wanted to greet him. However, suddenly, my conversation with Gin
