After gathering all the equipment for tomorrow and putting it inside where i was currently staying at. I wondered outside the hut, my head slightly down to prevent anyone from seeing me clearly. Well of course that didn't work.
Kiel and Daniel already left an hour ago and their last instruction was to drive me home and go back to my house , i frowned. I knew that my mate and i would be having dinner tonight but i just can't help to see the kingdom.
How big it is, the rumors said it was just called a Packhouse but clearly it isn't. That's why some of it called it a kingdom. It had high ability guards surrounding every corner and the structure itself was told to be a hundred feet high!
No enemy would dare walk into that place without the thought of dying.
Feeling slightly relieved that i was part of the pack now. I lifted my head and started strolling around beside the civilians. They didn't call me a rogue anymore nor anybody had recognized me.
This location was full of shops and civilians, most all of the houses are here. My hands tightly shut behind me, i continued to walk and wander in here.
I've never been to this kind of noisy places because i was too busy locking myself up in my old packhouse. I could imagine my child self running around here happily talking to the civilians.
What would've happened if i didn't lock myself up?
I was lost on my thoughts when a sudden frail body bumped into me. I just wobbled but the person fell on his/her ass, her hood dropping; making her red bright hair visible to anyone's eyes. She quickly got up and wore the hood once again; however, she didn't made eye contact to me and continued to run towards the opposite of my direction.
What a rare Red hair.
Suddenly, thoughts of using the weapon that my mate gave me made me think. Instead of wasting my time here, shouldn't i be training for tomorrow's death practice?
I twisted my body and ran towards the direction of my house, once i did. I shut the door close and ran to my room, my teeth grazing my lip from anticipation. The Bow and Arrows were placed just beside my bed, i took it and walked towards the window. Looking down, i gulped.
It's not that high.
But i can sense someone coming.
I smirked evilly, i placed the bow and arrow behind me and put my hands to support myself to jump into the window, after i did. I softly landed while my hand still rested on the grass.
I ran and ran towards the direction to the forest, i thought of using some animals to be my target or maybe just a wooden tree would be enough, i looked behind me only to sense that he was not pursuing me.
What's with that? Once i heard the loudest place where the birds chirped happily, i halted and made my stance. Placing an Arrow in the bow and facing it to the direction of the target.
Focus.
Fast. The birds circled around the trees as if they were mocking me, my hands were shaky probably because of trying to follow their movements.
I placed it down and raised my right hand. Red marks were visible for trying to endure the target.
I sloped down and sat beneath a wooden trunk. "Tsk! I think a sword would've been better. How can i learn to use this bow if i don't know how to?"
Suddenly, i smelled someone approaching behind the bushes. As my hands were on the weapon i held it instinctually and faced it towards that direction.
"Who are you?"
The movement stopped, i tried detecting whoever might it be, but it was someone i do not now.
"Come out!"
'Christal don't harm her.' For the first time, gina called out.
[What? Her?]
She's right, she's female.
I slowly lowered my weapon to my side, my eyes not leaving that direction. My eyebrow furrowed when she spoke, still not revealing herself.
"That's not yours." The unknown female says, i can smell that she's also a werewolf.
"What is?"
"That weapon."
I looked at it, the gold shining and the carvings shone in ambiance, it's just like a goddess had created this. "What do you know about this?"
Is this not a normal weapon? That a werewolf pursued me for this?
"I know that.. someone like you shouldn't be possessing such a great weapon!" She growled ferociously.
She had a long Red hair as she wore a dark robe too. The face that she has is like a porcelain doll, her figure stood smaller than me even if she wore high boots.
"Who the hell are you?"
"What? You don't know who i am?" She asked annoyed.
"Why? Should i?"
She growled at me. "I am Amber from Stone pack. That weapon that the witch gave you belonged to us!"
"Belonged? So it's not yours any more right?"
"No! It's ours! It's a treasure that's been passed down from generation to generation! Now give it to me!" She commanded before she ran towards me.
I closed my eyes, the surrounding shifting to slow motion, and it blocked my hearing too. I opened my eyes and saw Amber slowly running towards me with a vengeful face.
I still can't get used to my powers.
When she was a meter close to me, i punched her right into the face and she fell onto the ground. The surrounding going back to its normal pace once again. She can no longer get up, seeing that she couldn't take one punch from me.
I sighed. "I don't care if this was yours, but it's mine now so fuck off."
I was surprised when she still had the energy to stood up unsteadily and looked at me like her only goal was my death. She finally shifted into her wolf and growled loudly in my direction.
As i anticipated, she lunged at me with her towering wolf and rolled us over the ground. When I held her both paws with no sweat, she tried to bite my head off. Smirking at myself, i kicked her guts with force and she flew upwards, howling in pain when she fell on the ground.
I won't shift for this weakling.
I stood up. "Had you had enough? Just give up the weapon and walk away, then i'll let you live."
Her palms rested into her stomach as she curled up in her human form. her red hair sprawled around her head making me stare in awe.
"N-No!"
She can't stand nor move anymore yet she wants to still fight?
"Please! That's m-my sisters'! It's the only memory of her left for us.. please.." she begged, tears falling to her eyes.
Even if she begged, i can't falter any emotions. This was a gift from my Mate. Giving it to another female won't make me satisfied.
"No. this is Mine. This is now my treasure." I said while i looked into the weapon.
This is mine.
"Luna!!" Kiel's voice reached my hearing, i turned behind me and saw him running towards me with daniel with his side.
"Kiel? What're you doing here?"
They looked at me first before they shifted their eyes to the woman infront of me, she was on the ground whimpering in pain and desperation.
They stared at me with blank expressions.
"What? I didn't attack first!" I pouted. They surely doubted what i said.
"Really?" Daniel scoffs.
"Yeah really. While i tried my best to peacefully train. This red hair woman tried attacking me and telling me that this weapon was her sisters'." I rolled my eyes.
"What weapon?" Kiel.
"This weapon." I said and presented it to them. "But don't touch it."
"This is the weapon that The witch gave you?" Kiel unbelievably looks at me while Daniel looked like he won a wrestling match.
"My mate gave me Actually," I replied.
"Well you see that?" He points at a small emblem in the lower part of the bow.
"What is it?"
"That's the emblem of the stone pack."
"What?!" I shouted, making them go backward by instinct. "So you're saying this was really their-" i said and looked behind me.
"And she's gone." Daniel blinks.
I faced palm myself and cursed. I let her get away, she knew my existence! How foolish of me to get distracted. I glared at the both of them. "You idiots! Didn't you see her from behind me?"
"Well we were too busy looking at your amazing weapon." Daniel chuckled.
I sighed.
"She's probably gonna search for you." Kiel adds.
"Yeah she is."
"How about we take you home now? The Alpha King would be in your house any minute now."
My jaw dropped. I forgot that i have a dinner with my Mate tonight!
