Lance had gone into the castle and he was never seen or heard from again. Out of the many rooms that were here it would have been impossible to know which one Lance chose to put his head to rest in. I could search but that would take hours. The night was growing darker but that seemed to be when everyone was coming out to play. They were little children, about four of them who just ran up the ornate hallway laughing and yelling in the manner children did when they were overly excited. The truth is the castle was big enough to get lost in but being a werewolf had it pecks I guess. The moment Gray had brought me up to my room I marked it so I could easily locate it back whenever I left. I was going round to view the castle by myself, and Gray, my companion and friend, had left me for a quick rendezvous with his mate. A little girl saw me and threw a rock at me as she made an attempt to hide. Oh no, you are not invisible! I thought, your mates are out there playing and you are here thr

"Does anyone ever go there, his room?" I knew I sounded desperate but curiosity was getting the best of me."He hates to be disturbed unless it is very important." Gray shrugged. I stretched to grab a tomato paste from the top shelf. I turned it open and poured a specific quantity into it."What are you cooking? I want to have some." Sonia popped out of nowhere into our conversation and I smiled. "Tomato sauce," I said. "We can put it in the refrigerator and use it whenever. For now, I need pepper."Spinning in a circle, I made an attempt to pick up the scent of pepper. To no avail, I focused on the boiling tomato sauce."I'll go get it," Grey volunteered. ...Within a matter of minutes, breakfast was ready and the kitchen was more populated than when I came. Food was any werewolves weakness, no matter how tough they seemed to be, food always brought them low and I was the perfect cook the pack was obviously looking for. I had to prepare a little bit more so I could be able to serv

My workshop? My very own workshop! As in a place where I can mix herbs, practice medicine with magic and study in total silence. My broken heart leapt with joy. This had to be the only thing that could have qualified as compensation for me at the moment. However, how did they know? I guess Gray was just intuitive. He did not stick around to see me clean up and that was perfectly okay. I cleared the area, shoving old dusty books, rags and worn-out metals in a heap of garbage on one side of the room. Owing to what Gray had said, the place was as dusty as a fairy sprinkler, only this kind of dust had no magic embedded in them and was not golden. I coughed. It was the type of place where you would go in healthy and come out with a nasty cough. I used the broom to take out spider webs and there was only one thing left to do, which was to leave the place open for air to come in. It had two windows and I opened both of them up. I even threw the door open and wedged it with a stone to stay o

"Physical strength is great but of what use is it if it can't be merged with mental strength? You'll just charge into battles recklessly and your head will be decapitated for that someday." Sonia continued to walk. "Which one are we starting with eh?" Lucas asked, punching his fist into his palm. "First you shall be taking a paper test," said Sonia and my mind went into a state of confusion. Everything about this pack differed from how things were done back home. "Wait what? What do you mean about the paper test? Is it like an exam?" Petra rapidly fired a ball of questions, apparently sharing the same confusion as I. "Yes you will answer a few questions that will help determine how smart you are." Sonia waited for one of the spectators to hand over to her some pieces of papers and pens. She distributed them to us. "You have thirty minutes to complete this test."I found a spot to sit on a log of wood and I perused through the question paper and answer booklet. The questions were p

“I am lying right here, you know?” Jeff said to me but I was too irritated and upset to apologize to him. They all became mute after my heartfelt speech and I smirked, knowing that they were contemplating on the matter.“What is your plan?” Mike asked, taking a pause from chewing his fingers. I looked at the other group to see that they were making progress by trying to shift the bone back in position, but it was only going to cause more pain for the child since they had no pain killer.“I need everyone’s help,” I said, squatting in front of the old man, ripping the lower part of his trouser away from him as I accessed his left leg. The spot where the wolfsbane was injected looked black as his veins slowly turned purple due to the infection. “Mike, you will go to my workshop, get me hypo-liquid, castle dust and you will also find a small bowl covered with a napkin. Please be careful, they’re all very important. You’ll find the first two ingredients on the top shelf, and it is written
