"What do you mean?" tanong sa akin ni Alpha Ashton.
I have no doubt about him being an Alpha. As a hybrid, I could tell if someone is in a higher position of a pack or not. He surely is one. I could even tell that he has more power than I do.
A pureblood werewolf.
This truth shocked me more than I should. All my life, I believed there were no pureblooded werewolves existing in the recent era. There are what ifs, yes, but I already disregarded the notion that they might actually still be existing.
"We have built our own society in Mortal World years after the war between werewolves and vampires happened. Our ancestors mated with humans to reproduce. Today, almost none of us are pureblooded. We are werewolves with human blood. A hybrid," paliwanag ko.
Hindi ko alam kung anong dapat isipin sa reaksyon ng alpha. Napilitan akong umiwas ng tingin nang hindi na makayanan ang kan'yang titig. Mukhang hindi naman niya sinasadyang titigan ako nang seryoso dahil may iniisip siya ngunit hindi ko pa rin kaya.
I am facing a pureblood werewolf here. Now. Someone directly connected to the God who created us. Even my wolf couldn't stand his power.
"I need to see them and you have to brief me of your history," kalauna'y saad niya.
I feel wary. Wary of his presence, of my mate's presence, and of the alpha's intentions.
"I don't harm my people, woman. Unless they harm me and my pack first," ani pa niya. Siguro ay napansin ang pag-aalinlangan ko.
"I don't know how they'll react to this- to you."
"I need no reaction. I only need to see your pack."
"And we don't need your interference!"
"They are my people. You are my people," mariin niyang pahayag.
Gusto kong manlaban ngunit ano nga ba ang laban ko sa isang katulad niya?
I sighed. "I'm sorry, Alpha," pagsuko ko.
"You'll come with me in the pack for the meantime. You'll accompany me in your pack tomorrow. Is that alright?"
Wala akong nagawa kung 'di tumango. Kahit naman umayaw ako ay wala rin akong ibang mapagpipilian kung hindi ang sundin siya sa huli.
"So why are we here? Props?" biglang tanong ni Sir Blaphe kaya napunta sa kan'ya ang atensyon namin.
"Witnesses," si Sir Acieve. "And you need to go out once in a while, Blaphe. Tsh."
Humalakhak ang isa. "You missed me?" Sabay akbay pa kay Sir Acieve.
Mahinahong inalis ng isa ang braso ni Sir Blaphe saka lumayo kaunti sa kan'ya.
"We should go. May klase pa akong tuturuan mamaya. Ashton, ikaw na ang bahala kay Miss Avar. Blake will accompany you towards your pack."
"May klase rin ako mamaya, Kuya," pag-angal ni Blake.
"H'wag nang umangal, Ash Blake. Bisitahin mo minsan ang mga pamangkin mo," si Sir Ash.
"No one ever wanted to fall under the attention of your cunning twins, Kuya," my mate said.
I can't help but stare at my mate. He is a beauty- a sight worthy of staring. My wolf was howling- yearning- for the man in front of me. She was proud of his mate. But as much as I wanted to feel the same, I couldn't. Nothing in this world guarantees assurance and home. I do not belong here.
"Let's go."
Sumunod kaming lahat kay Alpha palabas ng opisina. Unang humiwalay sa amin si Sir Acieve, sumunod si Sir Blaphe. Nang kaming tatlo na lang ang naiwan, walang may gustong umimik. I can already tell that the Alpha isn't the one who talks a lot. Kaya hindi na ako magtataka kung hindi siya magsalita sa buong oras na magkasama kami papuntang pack niya.
