Chris' PoV

After the meeting in our company was done, I went to my office to carry out some paperwork which took longer than expected, by the time I have completed them and checked them off, everyone was already gone except for me and my secretary (Lyla) who helped me out to finish the day off before making our way outside.

Lyla was one of my trusted worker and ally, despite how the company was full of human employees, Lyla is actually not a human but instead a witch and therefore she knows of my identity, she was also the one who looked after me when I was in pain due to my ex-mate, she also taught me about medicine and potions so I was able to make them which can help wolves at critical moments including cure to silver and wolves bane which is a unique potion she formed herself that no one knows of except for to me and Lyla.

At the beginning I was unsure whether I was worthy of gaining the knowledge Lyla worked so hard on but after knowing each other for so long, we came to understand each other and became close friends and since Lyla aren't always in the pack, she thought it was also a precaution for if someone was ever injured by these things to be treated and if Lyla isn't there, I was a backup. And with that I reluctantly agreed and learnt the secret to curing wolfsbane and silver that are only poisonous to werewolves.

Now coming back to the present day, me and Lyla have finished all our work whilst we used the elevator and came out of the company together, "Want to pitch a ride?" Lyla asked considerately whilst I kindly rejected her offer knowing it is quite late and it can be dangerous if she gone home too late, "nah, I want some fresh air so I'll take a walk first before heading home, you could go ahead" I said whilst she nodded hesitantly but nevertheless she entered her car knowing that I am competent enough to look after myself and even if I do get in trouble I have the ability to get myself out of it.

As the rear lights of Lyla's car begin to fade until I no longer see her, I then made my way towards the direction I came in this afternoon. And as soon as I entered the forest, ensuring no one was around, I then let my wolf out to play and run about for a while. We started jumping from tree to tree and ducking branches that was coming our way until we heard footsteps behind us closing in.

"Do you hear that?" I questioned.

"Yep, there is about 7 wolves behind us, it seems we went into another packs territory." Lisa replied.

Whilst I sighed, not knowing a pack was in the area. Oh no, this is just great, how did I even run into another pack's territory? We need to fight them off before they could catch up to us or else, we may risk our identity of being found.

As I kept on running, the distance between us increased, as I thought I was nearly out of the clutches of those wolves another one appeared out of nowhere in front of me.

He seems to be a beta due to having a bigger and more demanding demeanour, he was a brown wolf with green eyes, which isn't good.

Whilst still in my wolf form facing against the larger wolf that's in front of me, he started snarling and pacing towards me, trying to bite me and lose my balance but for me who has lots of training, I was able to keep up with the beta despite my small figure which in some cases worked to my advantage since the smaller the body, the more agile and flexible we are. Furthermore, I was more speedy than other wolves during a fight.

We were on equal footing but if I was in human form, it'll be easier for me to attack as weapons were my best skill when fighting however, I cannot do that or else I'll risk my identity in being revealed.

As we fought for a while, kicking his shin, and knocking him down causing blood to be spat out of his mouth, the beta in front of me began to be serious and not long later, the other wolves arrived at the scene and as if forming a circle around us whilst ensuring I was not going to escape but also just watching the show which seems to be amusing and entertaining to them.
