Chapter 123

"Well, a part of it."
"A part of it?" She says, confused.
"I think it's probably because i ignored his pack rules. I mean yeah that's a grave sentence, and he let me go after some..scolding." I replied a bit embarrassed remembering the night of pleasure.
I felt my face getting hotter.
"Your face says it all." She laughs. "You probably did something dirty, like some make-up sex right?"
I rolled my eyes. "Aren't you too old for teasing me?"
"Oh come on! just let this witch have fun teasing you."
"Whatever."
"It's not that i want to listen to a detailed story of what happened last night, i just want to know why the Alpha King is angry right now. I think it's not because you broke the rules." She comes closer, barely whispering.
"What do you mean? that's all there is." I shrugged her off. "He really tried to kill me for faking my werewolf presence."
"Really?" Her eyebrow arched. "Then why did he send all the 1st level warriors to find some vampire."
My eyes widened, Vampire? Did he see Charles on that day?
"Tell me more."
"When the Alpha King went back to his office after two days, i saw how he thrashed everything in his office. He ordered beta Jaxon to gather the 1st warriors, and sent them to find information about a vampire. Although i'm not sure who, but seeing you now then that just means that it was Charles right?"
Bingo.
"How did you know?" I said, pretending to be shocked.
"It's not hard to guess." She shook her head. "Since it looks like the AlphaKing's arousal appetite is still stuck on you even though you clearly don't have your wolf presence."
I laughed. "What are you saying? Werewolves don't just lust for their mates you know. The werewolf society will end if that how it works."
"Really? That's new information." She said, squinting her eyes. "So you're saying he had that with you because he just felt aroused?"
I nodded. "It's not something to brag about since he doesn't recognize me as his mate but clearly i could tell that there was no trace of women scent on his body ever since i left him."
Her gaze saying 'You're obviously bragging'
"Fine fine. I am bragging." I laughed. "I mean who would not? he must've been abstaining for so long. My poor mate."
She sighs. "i did get that werewolves can mate with other werewolves even though it's not their mate, but its new to me that they could have sex with other species other than them. I've never heard of a hybrid species before, and some werewolf told me that a love like that is destined to doom anyways."
Well she is right, hybrids are very rare.
Just like getting another species' pregnant different from their own. It's not a forbidden act, but everyone should be aware of the consequences that come along that act, such as; not getting offsprings, different age limits, and unstable hybrid child.
In short, it really was a doomed relationship.
"Werewolves are lustful creatures, there's no way that they won't have sex with other species just because it's a doom one. And it's not like they get serious with those relationships. Take Keith for example, he did love my human doppelganger but when his soulmate appeared from his own species, there's no way he'll choose the human. After all, all males want a stable family, not some freak hybrid species."
"Who's Keith?" She asks confused.
"Oh just some BlueStone idiot i met back then."
She sighs. "I think we've talked for too long, i still have to do my rounds in Delta."
"Sure, some other time then." I smiled.
She smiles back. "Yes, and please be careful on your way back, the road would be very dangerous for you from now on. You can't use your powers okay? don't let them give you anything that would further damage your relationship with the AlphaKing."
I nodded, understanding the fact that i did cause some rift between Zyrus and i because of my demi-god's presence, he probably doesn't trust me at all right now.
She says her goodbye and finally leaves,
I turned a heel and headed towards the Delta Grounds, other werewolves immediately recognizing me as soon as i step within the borders. I felt numerous hostility aimed towards me.
"hey isn't that chick the 5th level trainee?"
"Yo look, the girl on the poster."
"Her profile isn't even that astounding, just how did the admin approve her entry?"
"I heard that red blood moon hid her profile, but eventually released it."
"How dare a 5th level get so full of herself?"
"She's just a she-wolf."
"She's rogue."
Yea yeah, talk all you want. It's not like i care about every little shit you throw at me. Not gonna care now, and never will.
But even when i thought of that, i still couldn't suppress my irritation from hearing all these noises due to my heightened hearing ability. Knowing that this discrimination won't stop until i do something worthy of my entry, i headed towards the Arena.
There, i saw a large number werewolves watching a on-going duel between werewolves. Their werewolf form hovering each other from time to time, their wounds worsen with every bite their opponent took. And it looks like the crowd also had bets on their pick of the winner. They don't even sense the 5th level loser is beside them just because of watching this stupid duel fights.
Looks interesting enough.
'Just what are you thinking now?' Gina asks.
[You know what i'm thinking]
'You don't even have a werewolf form.'
[Oh come on, i know you can do some small thing like that]
'Yeah you are right, this almighty me could do anything.' She brags.
[Then shall we?]
'No wait, are you dumb? you can't even see the barrier around the ring?'
[Oops just noticed it. What about it?]
'It's an anti-magic barrier. It's probably there to prevent the fight from being disturbed or cheated since there's a gambling system. If i let you use a werewolf form inside, it would be hard for you to simultaneously focus on both your form or your opponent, since the barrier would likely to try to dispel the magic.'
[Well that's troublesome.]
I sighed.
I looked ahead of me. "Then let's not just use the werewolf presence then. That'll prove me stronger than any of them"
'You always underestimate your opponent, this is why you always lose to our mate.' She scolds me.
"Underestimate? The only person that could defeat that monster is not even me, i don't dare underestimate Zyrus." I scoffed. "And what if i do underestimate other people? It's not like someone defeated me after my mate did."
I wasn't aware that i looked like a crazy woman talking by myself until Basti steps in front of me.
"Yo Christal, Who you talking to?" He says, looking around me.
"No one."
"Really? i was sure i saw your lips moving from afar."
"..."
"Ah nevermind," He scratches his head. "So what're you doing here? the boys and i decided to play around here."
"Play around? You're gonna join the arena?"
"What?" His eyes widened, shaking his head. "No way, most of the werewolves joining are all Delta graduates. There's no way we stand a chance, we just wanted to play bets that's all."
I looked behind him, seeing Grover and Jake talking with each other.
"Let's go to them, i have to ask questions," I said before pulling Basti towards the two guys. My hand pulling his shirt behind me.
When we finally arrived the two greeted me the same way Basti did.
"Christal! what're you doing ... here?" Jake asks suspiciously. "You do know your profile has been posted right? it's not wise to go to a place full of Delta graduates."
I flicked his forehead. "I'm not scared of some guys hunting me down. If i was, why did i even bother joining in the ranks?"
"You can't really underestimate those guys, they're all potential alpha from various packs. The monthly trials is just a way for them to join the ranks of their chosen pack or their own pack." Grover warns me.
"Yeah, i mean we know you're strong but you should still be careful." He pats my head.
I slapped his hand away. "Quit treating me like a child."
He laughs. "Oh come one, i treat you like my own little sister."
"Who's your little sister." I said before grabbing his neck playfully by my arm.
"Aw! violent sister!"
The two of them laughs.
"Call me that one more time and i'll snap your neck," I said before letting go. "So do you feel answering my questions now."
Basti pouts. "FIne sister"
He stuck a tongue out.
I sighed, Childish.
"Anyway, i just wanted to know more about the arena. How the duel system works and if there's some benefit for the winners."
Their jaw drops.
