3: Alpha's Lesson

Radius Velasco

Actually, I have a sister. We grew up in the Human World for many years. The one who adopts us decided to take my little sister to States.

For many years, ang tagal ko na siyang hindi nakikita. I named her because no one can give her a name. I raised her when I was just a kid.

"Alpha!" Rinig kong tawag ng tatay ni Lionel. He looks young to be an elder anyway.

"What is the problem?" I asked. Napayuko si Chloe. I wish that it is my sister. I command them to find my little sister. It's my duty and I accept it. I need to adjust for the sake of the pack, and for their safety.

"A news from your sister. She is locked to the tower of Conspiracy. It is near the Boundary of Vampires and Werewolf or should I say near to the Kingdom of Smithereens." Napabuntong hininga ako. Mukhang kailangan ko munang aralin ang mundong ito.

Nag-peace sign sa akin si Lionel. "Thank you, you may now leave and eat your breakfast because it's already 6 am," I said and he got up. Napatingin ako kina Chloe.

"Kailangan mo ng mga lessons para sa mundong kinaga-galawan mo na ngayon. Iba kasi ang mundo ng mga tao sa mundong ito." Sambit ni Chloe at bigla akong hinila na lang. We are in my true parent's house. Marami pa akong gustong itanong sa kanila pero huwag muna.

Many things are vintages. Chloe opened a room and I was surprised to see a mini classroom. It is clean...a blackboard in front. Chairs and others. Well, it looks like every Alpha in this pack do this.

"This is where an Alpha learn his lesson's about this world. You are an Alpha but if you are a normal werewolf, I can rank you as a pup because you have no knowledge about this world." Nguso niya. Napakunot ang aking noo sa kanyang sinabi.

Kumuha siya ng chalk na nakalapag sa table sa harapan. "This world is called Serendipity. Ang Serendipity ay nahati-hati ayon sa uri. May palatandaan naman kung maka-kalagpas ka sa boundary." Kibit balikat niyang sabi. Napataas ang kilay niya at nagsimula na naman. "Our pack is called the Tranquility dahil sa secret formula na binuo ng mga ninuno natin for healing wounds." Napatango-tango ako. Ngayon ko lang nalaman ang pangalan ng pack.

Hindi kasi sinasabi ni Lionel. That Brat!

Naghagis siya ng isang map sa akin. "Hindi kagaya sa mga movies ng human world, ang relasyon ng bampira at mga lobo. Actually, best of friends nga ang dalawang uri nito." Patuloy akong nakinig sa kanya. Kailangan ko talaga ito. Ang seryoso ko naman. Huwag kang maga-alala,  pangit ka Radius pangit ka pa rin kahit mistress ka. Ano ba!

"We are in Galen near the boundary of the vampires and werewolf's. Magka-kalapit nga lang ang mga lugar rito. The Travelers are in the middle of the map because they are the mo-" Biglang napatigil si Chloe nang may dumating na babae na naka-dress?

Hinawakan niya agad ang pisngi ni Chloe. "OMG! Nagkafirst-blood ka na? Daks ba? OMG talaga." Sabi niya at natawa. "Uhmm, Leen." Awkward na sabi ni Chloe. Napatingin bigla sa direksyon ko ang babaeng iyon.

"Ang gwapo naman pala ng Alpha. Hello! I am Cathleen Astrid Villaseñor. I am a Dream Traveler. I guess you are Radius Velasco?" Sabi nito na mabilis na nakalapit sa akin. Lihim na natawa si Chloe sa pinaggagawa ng Leen na ito. This girl's hair is flowing. Light blue hair and blue eyes. She is wearing a dress.

She is flying...

Napanguso naman ang Dream Traveler at lumapit ka’y Chloe. "Serenada cast a spell on him but before I tell what kind of spell is in him, I need the girl who can see the future by her journal. Where is Radiant?" Tanong niya sa akin pero umiling lang ako bilang sagot. Ayaw ko muna siyang pag-usapan.

"Okay, highway." Sabi niya at umirap. "You're so road! Alpha. Please take care of her, ah! Kapag nagwolf form ka. Masanay ka na kapag sumigaw yan. She really like cute wolfs. Muntik niya pa ngang pisilin yung tenga ng isang pup nakaraan. Bye ebribadi!" Sabi niya at biglang nawala sa harapan namin ni Chloe.

Napangiti ako ng makitang namumula ang mukha niya. I guess, that Dream Traveler knows everything about her.

"Sorry about her. The Travelers are the most powerful kind in this world. Our lesson for today is done. See you tomorrow and by the way, why can't you sense your mate. We have to find the Luna to prevent you from being lunatic." Sabi niya at umalis na naman mag-isa. Napatingin ako sa map na hawak ko.

Napaisip ako...Paano kaya kapag hindi ako isang ganito? I think I'm not name as Radius. I am the leader of the pack, I'll try my best to keep up with what's going on with the pack.

"Don't think too much. Wala pa tayo sa simula." Pagsulpot bigla ni Chloe sa tabi ko. Pinikit ko na lang ang aking mga mata. I know I can survive this.

I let myself drift to dreamland...
