Howl of Sins

Chapter 49

Decebel's POV

One ring. Two ring. Three ring. Shit. I abruptly sat up out of bed, grabbing my phone off of the side table.

"Hello?"  the tone of my voice, hoarse from just awakening.

"I would have expected you to be awake by now." Hunters laugh cascaded out of the speaker.

"What time is it?" I harshly rubbed my neck.

"Well, its 6am here and I know its a 4 hour difference there." Hunter spoke.

"It's fucking 10am?!" I jumped out of bed and opened the curtain of the room I was assigned to.

Hunter let out a laugh,

"You been sleeping good? Or jetlag?"

"Surprisingly, sleeping well." I walked into the bathroom, placing the phone down on the counter.

"How's everything going at the academy? Anything new?" I shuffled through my bag to find my hair gel.

"Nope.. nothing. How's everything there?" A slight nervous tone came from Hunter.

"Okay? I mean, Kiara and I fucked so there's that." I slicked my hair back.

"Damn. That took longer than I thought it would have." Hunter sounded surprised.

"Yeah, well, it was a nice stress relief. One good thing to happen on the break." I said before pulling the shirt I chose to wear today over my head.

"You know what they say about taking a girls virginity? She's going to end up being severely clingy to you. You'll definitely have her wrapped around your finger." Hunter spoke in a tone that was almost like he was concerned.

I let out a big sigh, staring at myself in the mirror.

"Isn't that the plan..?"

"You don't sound confident about it." Hunter scoffed.

"There's been new information that I was told, and its just been making me think hard about all this shit." I walked back into the room and pulled open the side table drawer.

"Like, making you contemplate going through with it or?" He asked.

"I don't know, Hunt. I have a lot riding on me, and I don't know how much more stress I can take at this point." I confessed.

"So, you wanna put a pause on this whole thing?" Hunter pushed the question.

There was a pause of silence. The voices in my head, not shutting up from screaming a bunch of different thoughts at me. Did I want to do this anymore? From what I've learned about what my father has done, is this cause for revenge?

"Decebel?" Hunter broke the silence.

"At this point in time, I don't know what I want to do." I spoke, frustration filling my tone.

I hung the phone up and threw it on the messy bed. I sat down and placed my head in my hands. How did everything become so difficult. Usually decisions that have come upon me has always had a no brainer answer. I was trained to receive a game plan and complete it. There's parts in me that would love to be able to take down Blake, but the other part of me is screaming. If what was said to me about my father reigns true, then why would I continue to follow down his path? What would be the point to all this? This thoughts clouded my head, so much so that I didn't notice that I had pulled out the DNH map that I had, completed. Staring at it, holding it in my hands and gripping it, as if I was to rip it up.

"What do we do, Axel?" I asked my wolf.

"I don't know. All I know is Kiara, and I will do everything in my power to keep her safe." He responded back fiercely.
