Alex’s pov 🎀

After a long torturing drive… Will finally stops in front of a building.

Will and Micah quickly alighted, I also didn’t waste any time to follow suit. Micah throws his arm around my shoulders and inhaled deeply.

“Lexa, can you feel the peace and quiet this place will bring you?” He asked.

I raised an eyebrow at him.

“We just got here… Who knows if we’re gonna move tomorrow!”

He gro-ns and rolls his eyeballs.

“You’re such a killjoy!”

I chuckled at his failed attempt to cheer me up and make me love this place.

*Be careful, guys.. don’t break anything!* I heard Will talking to the movers as they move in our stuffs.

I took the time to study the building… It looks like a portable mansion.

I nod.

My legs find their way to the backyard, to confirm if what Will and Micah said are true.

A small smile finds its way to my l-ips as I saw a small garden of roses and lilies instead.. and a single guava tree with a few guava fruit on it.

*This is perfect!* I thought mentally.

Maybe they’re right, I might not get any nightmares since there’s no woods behind.

Someone taps my shoulder and I turn… Micah and Will stands behind me… Will’s hands tugged in his pocket and Micah smiling brightly.

“So.. what do you think?” Micah asked.

They both looking at me anxiously.. waiting for my reply.

I scoffed mentally, they’re asking for my opinion now… As if it has ever mattered.

“Do you like it?” Micah asked again.

I nod.

“Yeah… since there’s no woods!”

Micah claps his hands together and from my peripheral view, I saw Will sigh in relief… a small smile tugs at the corner of his l-ips.

“Excellent!” Micah said.

“The movers are done, let’s go in and check the rooms!” Will said.

Micah takes my hand and pulls me along… I hope the in,side won’t disappoint me!

*
*

“Wow!”

I couldn’t help it but awe at the beauty I’m seeing… Honestly, this house is ten times more beautiful than our previous house.

It’s got high ceilings and high french windows… Let’s just say I can’t describe the interior in full, cause I’m pretty bad at descriptions!

Wait… I need to get the room with its window facing the garden.

I turned to Will with a smile… He studies my expression and sighed.

“Fine… It’s that one over there!” He points to a room.

He already knows what I wanna ask… He doesn’t need me to tell him.

I rushed there but not before yelling.. “Micah! Bring in my luggage!”

He gro-ns but I hear him pulling my luggage along.

I enter the room and rushed towards the window… I opened it and smile as I breathe in.

The garden is right outside my window… I saw two butterflies, flying around a flower.

“Well, it seems you really like this place now!” Micah said.

I rolled my eyes.

“Micah, I only like the garden!”

“Oh!”

“Yeah!”

Will clears his throat and calls our attention.

“Well, Alexa, Micah and I have something to discuss… we’ll leave you to unpack and settle in!”

I nod.. wanting them to leave. But my stomach growls loudly and I remember we haven’t had any food since morning.

Micah looks at his wrist watch.

“Will, it’s already lunchtime… Lexa and I will go for groceries shopping first”

I slaps his shoulder.

“Grocery shopping?!”

He nods.

“I’m already so hungry and you’re talking about grocery shopping?!”

He nods again.

“Can you say something other than nodding?”

He chuckles lightly.

“We’ll go buy groceries and Will is gonna cook for us!” He said.

I rolled my eyes for the hundredth time.. what a bunch of caring brothers I have.

I throw my backpack on my new bed and keep my storybook in,side… Seeing my storybook, I suddenly remember something.

I stands up abruptly.

“What about school?”

They both frown.

“School?” They asked at once.

“Yeah.. when am I resuming school? This is my senior year, I can’t slack off”

Micah laughs.

“Relax.. Will didn’t forget you’re a nerd…”

“I’m not a nerd!” I cut him off.

He nods frantically.

“Right, right….!”

“I found you your new school and talked with the principal last night… You’re resuming tomorrow!” Will said.

I nod… At least they’re not gonna delay my studies. I turned to Micah.

“Micah, you’ll go the grocery shopping alone…I wanna unpack and get my things ready for tomorrow”

“No!” Micah and Will said at once.

I furrow my brows together.

“Ok… You’re both acting weird!” They both have a scared expression on.

“Weird? We just don’t want to leave you alone in the house” Micah said.

“I’m not alone, Will is gonna be here”

“Will… he….”

“I’m visiting one of my friends” Will cuts him off.

“Your friends?”

He and Micah nods.

“You have friends here?”

They nods again.

“Since when?”

They both exchange looks and Micah nods at Will… Like they just had a conversation telepathically.

“Remember I came here sometime ago for business?” Will asked.

“Yeah?” I replied.

“Well, I made a few friends then… Now that I’m here, I must check on them!”

Hmm… It’s confirmed… Their acting strange.

Could it be my nightmares are taking a toll on them and they’ve gone…. Loco?!

“Come on, Lexa… I’m starving, let’s get moving!” Micah said and grabs my hand.

He turns to Will.

“Extend my greetings to your friends!”

Will nods…. While Micah pulls me out.

*
*

Walking down the streets with Micah is a crime now! I mean, all the girls are glaring daggers at me… I guess they’re thinking I’m his girlfriend.

I shake my head mentally… If only they knew I’m his younger sister!

Ok, enough of the girls talk… I noticed something else.

The people in general… Elderly ones… Men and women.. they all seem to be giving me a disgusting look… like I’m carrying some kind of disease.

They’re murmuring among themselves as we walk past them… I pulled Micah closer and whisper in his ear.

“What’s going on? Why are they staring at me like that?”

He look around and throw his arm around my shoulders.

“They can hear you!”

“Huh?” They can hear me? How?!

“Just ignore them… I bet they’re just surprised to see new faces in their town”

Great! Just great! This is one of the reasons I hate moving!

Micah stops walking and I raised my head with a frown.

“Let’s check out this supermarket!” He said and pulls me in,side.

Writer’s pov 🎀

“Stop there!” A guard stops William as he’s about to walk through a gate.

The guard access him and sniffs the air.

“You’re not a rogue.. who are you?” The guard asked.

“I’m Williams Dex!”

“That’s not what I mean!” The guard retort harshly.

William smiles… He studies the guard and shakes his head.

*He must be a new guard!* He thought.

“Which pack are you from? And what’s your rank? And why did you come to the Alpha King’s mansion?!”

Williams rolled up his sleeve and shows the guard a small faded wolf’s head tattoo on his arm…. The guard’s eyes grows wide as recognition flash across his eyes.

“I’m Williams Dex… from crescent moonstone pack… from the royal spy’s family!”

The guard bows his head immediately he realizes william’s rank is far higher than his.

“I’m so..sorry, Mr spy.. how may I help you?” He stutters a little.

“I want to see the alpha King!”

The guard nods…”I’ll inform him!”

The guard rushes in and came out after a few minutes.

“Mr spy, this way, please!”

William nods and follows him. After a few minutes of walking down a very long corridor, they stopped at a big door…made of oak wood.

Alpha King’s office boldly written above it.

The guard knocks a few times and hears a faint “come in!”

He opens the door and they both steps in… william and the guard quickly bows their heads as they saw the people in,side the office.

The alpha King sits on his big chair… with his beta by his left hand side…and a few elders.

“Alpha King, William Dex is here!” The guard reports.

The Alpha King waves the guard off… the guard rushes out as if his p-nts is on fire.

Willam quickly falls on his knees with his head still bowed.

“William Dex… Why are you just coming back?!” The Alpha King asked.

William didn’t utter a word.. talking back at the an Alpha is a death wish.

“After the death of your parents, we were expecting you and your brother to come back to the pack!” The Alpha King paused.

The silence in the office is very thick.

“Why did you and your brother come back! Speak!”

“We’re sorry, alpha King… We thought we could catch him…”

“Nonsense!” The Alpha King interrupts him. “I sent word to you, asking you to come back but you disobeyed me just because you thought you could catch him?”

William opens his mouth to speak but the alpha King shuts him up with a glare.

“Where’s he now?!”

“He’s in hiding, but….”

The door opens and a young boy enters the office… Everyone, except the alpha King.. stands up and bows.

“Your highness!” They chorused.

He arrogantly walked towards a similar chair with the alpha King’s and sits… without acknowledging their greetings.

A deep frown on his face…like he was forced to attend this gathering.

The beta king signal them to sit down.

“Dad, who’s this?” He asked.

“Alpha prince, he’s from the royal spy’s family!” The beta explained.

William gave him a respectful bow.

“Oh!” He exclaimed kinda disappointed.

The Alpha King clears his throat and all attention turns to him.

“William, I’ll pardon you for your parents’ sake… Come to the pack meeting tomorrow, you have a lot to catch up with!”

“Yes, alpha King!” William replies.

“You’re dismissed!”

William didn’t get up.. this made everyone frown.

“Do you want to be punished for failing in your duty instead?” An elder asked.

William shakes his head.

“I have a request” he said.

“Speak!” The beta said.

“I have a sister but she ain’t wolf”

There was silence… everyone is waiting for him to complete his statement.

“She’s human!”

This statement caused an uproar as everyone is murmuring. The beta hits the table for orderliness… everyone quiets down.

“What do you mean she’s human?” The Alpha King asked.

“I don’t know how to explain it..but she didn’t inherit our gene”

*How is that possible?!*
*Both parents were wolves!*
*This is unacceptable!*
*She must leave!*

The elders murmur.

“It is against our law to let any human in our pack! You know that!” The Alpha King said.

William nods.

“I know, alpha King…but this is the only place she can be safe!”

“No! She has only two choices now…either she leaves or we kill her!”

William’s eyes grew bigger and he shakes his head.

“No…she can’t die…”

“Then she leaves!”

*Yes!*
*She can’t stay!*
*She’ll expose us!*

William stares at the elders as they all agree with the alpha King.

Right then a thought comes to his mind.

“Alpha, she’s one of us… maybe she’s a late bloomer, she might transform if she meets her mate” William said.

Everyone quiets down and thinks about what he said…the young alpha prince shakes his head.

“She must leave! Humans and wolves don’t mix!” He said.

“But….”

“Alpha prince is right!” An elder cuts William off as he tries to speak. “Allowing a human in our pack will be our downfall”

William sighed in frustration…the reason he moved back was to protect his sister…now instead of protecting her, they want to kill her?

“Alpha King…just give us one week…only one week…if she doesn’t find her mate here… we’ll leave…”

“No!” The Alpha prince stands up. “She…..”

“Xander!” The alpha King cuts his son off. “Their family is the royal spy..we should listen to him”

“What?! Dad, we’re supposed to kill her! Have you forgotten that the hunters killing our kind are humans?!”

“Alpha prince, Alexa is not a hunter…she knows nothing about wolves…she won’t cause any harm…”

“That’s bullshit! She must leave or she must die….”

“Xander! That’s enough sit down!” The alpha King’s voice boomed.

The alpha prince grumpily sits back on his chair. Alpha King turns to the elders…and cleared his throat.

“The Dex family are always out there risking their lives for our pack’s safety…. this is the least we can do for them in return!”

“So we’re letting her stay?” An elder asked.

“Yes! But for just one week! If she doesn’t find her mate, she’ll leave!” Alpha King said in a firm voice… giving no room for arguments.

Even alpha prince (Xander) dares not argue.

“This is why I don’t like coming here! I always end up getting angry!” Alpha prince grumbles and got up and marched towards the door.

But not before stopping at William’s side and said through grit teeth.

“I shouldn’t see her! Or I’ll kill her!”

He steps out and slams the door shut… William bows.

“Thanks Alpha King”

“Just one week!” Alpha King said.

William nods quickly…a small smile on his l-ips.

“You’re dismissed!”

William gets up and rushed out.

Alexa’s pov 🎀

*…can I have your number?*

I shake my head and rolled my eyes as I watch Micah flirting with the cashier.

We’re done shopping and I’m waiting for him by the exit to pay the bills…but that gross boy is busy flirting with the cashier instead.

Though I believe she’ll give us discount now… because Micah told her she’s pretty.

Suddenly, someone bumps into me and the bags I was holding falls down…I almost lost my balance too.

“Can’t you watch where you going?!” I heard a female voice growl at me.

I frown and raised my head to give her my comeback.

“You’re not only blind but dumb too! You obviously bumped into me!” I retort.

She glares at me one more time and sniff the air…like a dog!

Her glare intensified..she pushes me out of her way.

“Filthy human!” She growls and storms out.

What’s her problem?!

I shake my head…I guess she woke up at the wrong side of the bed. I bent down to pick up my bags.

“I’m sorry about my sister’s behavior!” I heard another female voice say.

I quickly stand up…a smile on her face.

“My sister was rude, sorry about that” she said again.

“It’s nothing!” I said and turn to leave but she holds me back.

“I guess you’re new in town”

I nod and turn to leave again, but she holds me back again and didn’t bother to let go of me.

“I’m Joyce and I’m from this pack…which pack are you from?”

I frown…

“Pack?”

She nods, still smiling.

“What’s a pack?” I asked again.

Her smiles falters and she sniffed the air… what’s up with everyone sniffing the air like a dog?

I sniff the air too but didn’t perceive anything off.

“You’re human!” She exclaimed happily.

“Yeah.. you’re human too” I said.

She suddenly engulfed me in a tight hug.

“You’re human! I can’t believe I met a human!”

Ok…this is weird. What does she mean? Everyone on earth is human… right?

Just then Micah comes and clears his throat…he reaches out his hand for a handshake.

“Hi, I’m Micah..her big bro”

Joyce quickly takes his hand….then he looks at Joyce the same way he and Will did this morning.

And I noticed realization dawned on Joyce….like she just understand something.

“No wonder she’s clueless!” She said.

Clueless about what? This place is really weird!

“So… what’s your name? Are you coming to school tomorrow? Can I be your friend?”

“I… er….yes, I’m coming to school tomorrow but she might not be schoolmates”

“There’s only one school here… everyone in our pa….”

Micah clears his throat and Joyce chuckled.

“Everyone in our town goes there”

I nod.

“Then, I’ll see you at school tomorrow”

“I guess…”

She laughs lightly and hugs me briefly.

“I’ll see you tomorrow…gotta run before my sister kills me!” With that she runs out.

I released a long breath…this is the longest I’ve spoke with someone.

“I see you just made your first friend!” Micah teased me.

He knew I was frustrated and tired of her…speech?

“Did you get her number?” I asked referring to the cashier.

“Of course! I’m gonna get laid tonight…”

I cough to cut him off.

“Gross!”

“What’s gross about it…”

“Don’t bring home!” I warned him in advance.

“Whatever!”

I dumped the bags in his hands.

“What?!”

“Let’s go home!” I said and rushed out before he can hand them back to me.

To be continued.
