CHAPTER ONE
Present

"MATE!" A growl was heard in the middle of the busy supermarket kaya napaikot nalang ako ng mata.


That word again. Kailan pa ba ako masasanay sa term na 'yon at ang PDA ng mga werewolves dito?

I sighed before shoving ten apples in the basket. "Magkano po?" I asked the vendor about the cost, then when he answered I payed and thanked him immediately before making my way back to the parking lot.


The history said that about three milleniums ago, the supernatural creatures finally made their existence known with the humans and now they co-existed with us— humans— eversince they have compromised with each other and lived in harmony,— however, humans are still considered weak which most of the time— are being mistreated and are the cause of chaos.


"Ay, ang tagal girl ah. Bilisan mo nga maglakad dito, gusto pang rumarampa sa daan." A deep baritone voice rang in my ear kaya napangiwi ako—


bago lingunin ang mareklamong salarin na nakatayo sa hindi kalayuan at nakataas ang kilay sa akin habang naka-krus ang bulky arms nito on his broad chest while his back was leaning at the back compartment of his car. He eyed me with his forest green eyes framed with his long and curly eyelashes.



I just ignored him then I saw him gasp at napahawak sa dibdib niya. "How could you ignore me, babae, pagkatapos kitang samahan dito—"


"Ang daldal mo, tara na, Amari." I calmly said and motioned him to unlocked the car door.


I heard him stomped before opening the door at dali-dali naman akong pumasok sa passenger seat and then I saw him stride towards the driver seat at nang makaupo ito ay masama ako nitong tinignan habang ini-start ang sasakyan.


"Hoy, babae, paalala ko lang sa'yo ah, I have more authority than you kaya sa susunod 'wag mo nga akong inuutusan—"


"Shh. Amari, 'di ba pinagmamadali mo ako? Ang dami mong sinasabi, gora na." I said at him with my usual calm voice. I heard him huffed before he started driving away from the market place.


Along the way, I still remember the first time I stepped to their pack. Nasunog ang apartment na tinutuluyan ko no'n and with the help of my bestfriend Pristine who is now our Luna or should I say— Queen of the Lycanthropes in Asia— helped me to move in with her boyfriend's pack— which is now her husband and the King/Alpha King of the Lycanthropes, specifically, in the Asian continent, Avery.

That was 9 years ago when I was only 18 years old and just about to go to college, fortunately, to the rescue si Pristine at nagkapagtapos na ako ng pag-aaral at nagtatrabaho na bilang isang pre-school teacher sa isang school malapit lang sa pack— at nagtuturo ng iba't ibang lahi such as vampires, faes, witches, warlocks, orcs...


I am known as a very calm person— which is an advantage sa trabaho ko dahil sa mga batang saksakan ng kulit— which is pinagpapasalamat ko na mahaba talaga ang pasensya ko dahil baka ngayon patay na ako kapag may nasigawan akong bata at nagsumbong. Jusko, gusto ko pang mabuhay sa mundong kami ang prey sa food chain.



"Bakit tayo tumigil, Amari?" I asked at him when we suddenly stopped along the way kung saan napapalibutan kami ng mga sikat na restaurants sa lugar.
