RISE OF BAKUNAWA(Saga's Luna Story)

16. Saga: Hybrid

The moment that my wolf and I started to shift, I was expecting that it will be Night's wolf form, not this half-wolf, half-human form. Night and I were a bit confused, but the moment we started to move and attack, we both finally understood. It must have been our new acquired strength after finally being recognized by my mate, though we have not bonded yet, I was able to acquire the power of the Wolf King even in this early stage. I could not imagine what power I will tap into once we complete the mate bond and what else I will acquire once we claim each other under the moon goddess' guidance.

Mate bond and claiming ceremony are two different things.  Mate bond in human sense is like a wedding ceremony, while the claiming ceremony is the honeymoon for human beings, but in a supernatural way. Don't start me with the pack binding ceremony which will be held along with the mate bonding ceremony, it is another different way of ceremony, that will help strenghten the whole Bakunawa Pack once she's undergone all of it.

But this power is overwhelming me and Night in both speed and strength. Senses are more heightened than ever before. Everything in our eyes sees are in slow motion when we move. Sounds are more sharp, we could even hear the sounds miles away from here. Because of this, I can hear where the manananggals are coming from. So Night and I headed that way with Luna in our tail. My sense of smell is also heightened I can the even smell tiniest particle like the sweat of one of the smallest rodent hidden underneath the earth. And the air around me, I can feel the changes in the current, like it is giving me an invisible message that only I can read whenever the air touches my skin. It gave me an immediate warning when a manananggal tried to take a swipe out of my flesh from my back when it dive unto me from above and without even looking at the enemy I was able to side step the attack, and by reflex, I was able to grab the monster's nape and crush it's neck in one single clench of my fist. Just like that, it died in a second.

"Awesome..." woah! My voice!

Wrong. Our voice. Night countered.

That's right! It's our voice now! Night's and mine! Deep growly baritone voice. It's a combination of our voice. This is awesome. It didn't also escape in my notice how it affected Luna.

I turn to Luna while running and gave her what I think a sexy smirk; fangs and all. "My  voice is sexier than ever."

Luna scoffed but I notice her shiver in pleasure upon hearing our new voice and the change of scent in air coming from her, the scent of sweat that is so enticing that it made me us want to ravish her here and now; and the sudden rapid sound of her heartbeat, her new found excitment when she heard our voice. It made her release her pheromones unknowingly. But, we are in the middle of a battle. I will seduce her later.

I couldn't help but release a powerful killing aura once we reach a small camp at the edge of our pack's border. The aura exploded like an invisible bomb in the air, that automatically shattered the tents at the from of their campsite. It alarmed the people in the camp. Bloodlust is what Night and I feel, now that we are here.

Luna and I stopped the moment we entered their camp.

I can not help the growl Night released. He is mad! He wants to kill them all. But that's not want I want. We need to find the one who is leading this small camp.

"Watchout!" Luna shouted, but I did not care. The attack was nothing to me. I do not have the time to deflect the attack but instead, I move ahead to find their leader, the one who tries to attack me got nothing but air. Dead set on the killing intent.

Luna knows what to do to the rest. She is a goddess more powerful than me, maybe even more powerful in her wolf form.

I followed a scent that came from the instigator of this battle. A rotten smell that made me want to vomit. A smell coming from a mambabarang. An evil sorcerer that uses necromancy as magic. The evil scent gives an itch to my nose and Night's. Making us want to sneeze the evil out. If I were superman, a single sneeze can make them blow to oblivion but sadly I was not. I don't think that is possible anyway. It made Night sneered at the silly thought.
