"Why are you gonna form a group with me?" I ask.
"Coz the superiors instructed us to." He chuckles. "Well, actually we're on the same shoes."
"What do you mean by that?"
"Nobody wants you in. Don't worry the guys who told you that is our enemies." He laughs, i looked at him back and saw other males with him.
"So i can join your team?" I pointed out.
"Yea sure, you look weird but judging from your actions you're not a normal guy. The Alpha King even recommended you." He said.
Well they're alright i guess. But as Syrena told me i shouldn't care much with them. I need to focus on myself and train to become stronger. I was faced with horror when i think about getting too attached to them, they might know my identity.
The exact time it was time's up to form a group, i smiled towards the men that i would he working with, and said with a smirk.
"Helios, my name is Helios."
One by one the guy who called himself, Basti introduced me to his group. Actually he bumped me into his group. I never thought handshakes were this rough until now. But i just smiled, covering the uncomfortable face that i was making.
"Nice to meet you." I said after going through that horror.
Basti laughed and wrapped his arm around my neck, kinda rough. "You'll get along with'em soon."
"Guess so." I forced a smile.
There was actually 7 of them, including Basti. JM, Kennt, Jake, Omar, Grover and lastly Mark. One of them possessing unique traits or personality that made me easier to know them.
"So, it's true?" He said. We stopped, so i did so.
"What is?"
"That you're blind." He motions towards my face. "You look fine to me."
"Woah! You're blind?" -Jake.
"What's up with your outfit." -Kennt.
"Yeah The alpha king introduced him here remember?" -Jm replies to Jake, while the others listened to them.
I cursed under my breath, shit i forgot that he told everyone that i was some blind freak in a suit! I need to prove that i really am blind, hope i don't look stupid.
Stiffening my neck, i avoided twisting it anywhere towards him. Damn is it working?
"U-Uhm i just have excellent insticts." I replied.
"Mhmm. So how did it happen? Someone poked your eye?"
I almost choked out, how how? I couldn't think of something believable until a word pops on my head. "I was born like this you know, with no eyeballs and all."
His eyes widened in horror and made an uncomfortable face. "That happens?"
I held back my laughter.
After fooling Basti out of the blue, one of the superior started roaming around groups. Every Group was given one superior to help and guide us through training. Luckily Michael would be our superior, what a coincidence. Or not.
"I would be your superior for the next training that would be coming today. Unfortunately, i have bad news, there would be no evaluation for today." He finishes.
WHAT?! No evaluation? Then how the hell can i see him! Make him regret ever ignoring me! My eyes widened.
"Why is it canceled?"
"Its a private matter, not a trainee should be asking." His eyes sharpens towards me, and i stepped back. I just nodded back.
What is he doing? Why won't he come today? I'm dying to see him, or maybe not? I don't know i just miss him so bad. I don't get why he suddenly become cold towards me, is it because i kept pushing him away that he got tired of me?
"Don't try to ask those kind of things." Basti Whispered, he taps my shoulder.
"Why not? I can ask whatever i want to."
"Do that and you're gonna deal with Maria." He said, a hint of horror and enthusiasm ringing around my ears.
Who the fuck is Maria?!
His woman! Who else Christal! So that's why he's been cold to me! That asshole!
"He's not here because of Maria?" I ask, trying to held back the fury, i want to something.
"Yea-" he replies but stopped midway because my knuckles got in the way on his words, making him stumble on the ground. He looked at me shock. "What the hell bro."
"Sorry it was instinct." I breathed out.
THAT DAMN ALPHA KING. Who the hell is Maria and what the fuck is he doing with her? Oh you're so damned. My vision literally darkened and i felt my powers oozing out, Basti must have noticed because he stepped away from me.
"Dude calm down, fine fine! You can do whatever you want. If you want to go get ice cream-"
"ICE CREAM?!" I growled.
"No no! Did i say ice cream? I said whatever-makes-your-head-cool-down food." He panics.
"You said ice cream." JM laughs at him, looking back at me. Basti slaps JM at the back of the head.
"Shut up we need to calm him down." He whispers around the guys, but because of my superb hearing abilities that won't be whispers to me.
I tried practicing breathing, hoping that it would help me calm down but it didn't. It actually made me think of it more! Oh Gina don't let our power ooze out, coz i'm really gonna shift and bite his head off.
"Helios man!" Basti calls out, i twist my head towards them. "Calm down dude, try to shift it actually helps rather than holding it in."
"No! I'll kill you guys!" I growled, twitching every part of my body because i was trying to hold back to powers that was oozing out.
Damn it why can't i shift my mind?!
"Man you're moody as hell, but don't worry we got the right medicine for ya!" Jake laughs, they nodded at each other and stepped towards me.
"W-What are you doing?! Get away from me idiots!" I clenched my teeth.
Can't Hold it in much longer!
Before i knew it, they took of their shirts. Making my eyes widened from their sexy as hell body. Now that shifted my mind. But that was not it yet, they started to hum a sexy song and danced on it, making funny faces and actually having fun. Pushing theirselves around each other and laughing.
I held back a laughter, what the actual fuck.
"What the hell are you guys doing." I blankly ask.
"Hey! You're not being demonic anymore." Basti cheers up.
"Really demonic?"
He laughs. "Well you looked like you were gonna descend from hell dude, and we thought a good laughter can stop you, never thought it would work."
"Thank me, it was my idea." Jake perks up besides him.
We laughed all together, i thought Delta was shit but who knew these guys existed here. Delta could be fun with them, i just hope they don't do something that'll make me hate them just like Syrena told me.
"Are you done playing around?" Michael yawns. "We have the training, let's go."
We nodded in agreement.
~•~
"First level of training: Hunting." Michael announces.
"easy." Jake whispers into my ear.
"Then jake, would you like to come first?" Michael obliges with a smirk.
Jake sounds his knuckles and jolted up, making a face with playfulness. "Let's do it."
We were actually on the forest of Mujak, but actually farther. The trees were larger and the path was narrower. The branches of the tree covered the sky making it look like the night here. The cold breeze smelled something rotten, making me flinch. Am i the only one who can smell that? It was kilometers away from here.
"Run towards there." Michael points out, where the rotten smell is. "And howl when you see something. Howl three times if you need back up."
"Back up? I can finish this alone." Jake says proudly. He finally shift into his black Wolf and ran towards the direction.
My heart raced, i get a bad feeling.
The guys didn't look serious at all, they believed Jake would finish the task as they laughed through their conversations, while me and Michael waited for the first Howl. And then we heard it, He initiated the first howl which meant he did saw something.
"You heard it?" Michael asks.
"Yeah."
I looked back and saw the guys, they didn't hear it?
"They heard, they're just too confident he'll finish it." Michael chuckles.
"How bout you?"
"He's an amateur, i doubt he can calm a monster." He smirks.
I gulped, a monster? Hearing it from Michael made it more scarier. He was too sure that Jake would fail, but is Alpha Potential? How the hell and what is that monster? I closed my eyes. Feeling the air around me, i connected myself into it and travelled through the wind, but before i could even go further. We heard a terrifying cry on it. I opened my eyes and looked at Michael in horror.
I heard Three howls.
