Chapter 10

It felt as though I was enchanted. Everything occurred rapidly, making it difficult for me to accept its reality rather than perceiving it as an illusion. I frowned deeply and collapsed onto the bed, feeling exhausted without understanding what had drained my energy. I couldn't figure out what was going on with me.

"What have we just accomplished?" Do you remember the sweet, heartfelt words we left outside her door? Why on earth did we decide to go to our room in the middle of the night to express our emotions to a girl we should despise and perhaps even harm? My wolf let out a loud howl from deep within me.

I covered my face with my hand, inhaling deeply to relax my nerves and convince myself that I didn't truly mean all the nonsense I uttered outside her door.

"Did we even realize that our true intention for visiting the mines was to search for her, disguising it as a casual inspection of the work progress?" Remember how annoyed we were throughout the day when she was nowhere to be found, even though we were the ones who asked her to leave? Since we were unable to sleep, we decided to get out of bed and...

"Please halt!" I let out a frustrated sigh, clenching my jaw as I pulled on my hair with force. It was incredible, and now I regret that it occurred. I really hoped that everything my wolf said was false, but unfortunately, that was not the case.

We both made foolish mistakes today, on our initial encounter with the young girl.

"How did a partner arrive in our werewolf kingdom?" I'm feeling a bit puzzled. Is love present wherever we go? If we were to visit the human world, would the moon goddess choose a human there to be our partner? That's absurd! My wolf cried out, filled with intense anger and frustration in his voice, but his couldn't match mine.

I was extremely angry and frustrated, feeling a strong dislike towards the moon goddess. In that moment, I wished for her to come down and confront me. I was determined to confront her with all my strength, even if I couldn't defeat her, I would leave a lasting mark on her.

What kind of joke is she making with my life?

I decided to distance myself from the Lycans in order to avoid any romantic entanglements. However, on the very day I arrived here, another individual unexpectedly entered my life, carrying the unmistakable scent of my potential partner.

I was incredibly angry when she entered the room in a frenzied manner. She also recognized that I was her partner and was behaving as if it was ordinary. I mean, she actually anticipated me to embrace her, embrace her, and claim her as my own...

It was quite bothersome, but the most difficult part was when she referred to me as her mate! Oh, even if she wasn't being truthful, I absolutely refuse to hear that word.

I strongly dislike that girl for entering my life and causing disruption. Her regal presence is overshadowed by the pain and mistreatment she endures.

However, I am not concerned; my only intention would be to leave this place swiftly. We won't meet, which would prevent the tragic outcome of me having to harm my partner, after she had deeply captivated my heart.

"Are we not deceiving ourselves?" My wolf seemed to express a mix of sadness and affection within me.

"Where can I find it?" How can I help you? I am telling the truth! I shouted, with a fierce tone.

"Her eyes are beautiful, but they have lost their natural sparkle and now carry a deep sense of sadness and exhaustion." She had experienced deep emotional pain caused by those closest to her.

We both sense it. There seems to be something off about her experience in this location, even though everyone is currently behaving innocently.

We are the only ones who can assist her in this situation, and it is crucial that we do so. He purred, and I could feel the genuine concern in his voice, a sentiment we both disliked and had vowed to keep at bay.

"You're on the verge of making the same error once more." This is how it all began for my other friend in the end, you know how it all concluded. I whispered, inhaling deeply as my heart pounded more intensely.

Everything my wolf stated was accurate, yet we were left with no alternative. We needed to keep our distance from my mate, as our affection for her would ultimately lead to her demise.

My life was in complete disarray. Many people disliked me for my harsh actions, my unrestrained killings, and my seemingly cold-hearted nature. However, they were unaware of the immense hardships and cruelty that life had subjected me to. No one could truly comprehend the immense pain and anguish I felt when I had to harm my friends.

Love is a negative force that should never be present!

Dawn arrived quickly. I decided to shut my eyes and get some rest, hoping to avoid a sleepless night caused by Serenity.

I could tell that it turned out that way because I couldn't fall asleep. Every time I shut my eyes, her exquisite face would fill my mind, obscuring my thoughts. I would make an effort to refocus my attention and shift my thoughts to a different subject.

The challenge persisted until morning arrived and illuminated everything with the sun's rays streaming through the sheer curtain.

I left the bed in frustration and made my way to the bathroom, where I immersed myself in the bathtub.

There was a gentle knock on my door, causing my heart to skip a beat. I quickly hopped out of the tub and swiftly wrapped a towel around my waist, dashing out of the bathroom with water still trickling down my skin. I nearly lost my footing as I hurriedly made my way to answer the door.

"It seems like our friend has become aware of the conversation you had with her last night, as she has come to meet us for the final occasion!" I struggled to suppress my overwhelming excitement as my wolf let out a loud howl, my teeth tightly clenched to keep from squeaking.

I was absolutely certain it would be her, and the idea really made me lose my mind. I would have no problem apologizing to her. Of course, I would help her understand that I never harbored any ill feelings towards her.

I longed to experience the electric sensation of our touch once more. I could feel myself falling head over heels in love once more, and I was fully aware of it. Despite my reservations, I would make a final attempt to bring her joy before parting ways.

I hurriedly left the bathroom and quickly grabbed the door. I turned the knob, and the door swung open.

"Excuse me, your meal is prepared and ready for you." I listened to the gentle voice of a young woman who stood humbly before my door, trembling with fear.

I became overwhelmed with intense emotions, causing me to forcefully close the door in her face while expressing my displeasure through growls and heavy breathing.

"Our previous assumptions were incorrect!" The wolf let out a sorrowful sigh, causing me to clench my teeth in frustration as I felt my entire world collapse. I repeatedly hissed as I reluctantly dragged my feet.

"Perhaps she is anticipating our arrival in a certain location." My wolf chimed in, filling me with a glimmer of optimism. He was correct. Perhaps we can find a way to meet.

I quickly got ready and, upon reaching the top floor, the maids pointed me towards the dining room, where my meal was waiting for me. I quietly enjoyed my meal, but my neck seemed restless, constantly shifting positions. The object continued to rotate and turn in various directions, desperately seeking her presence.

All I desired was a quick look. I let out a soft sigh as I reluctantly scooped up the food. Everyone left out of fear, and I reveled in it, fueled by my disdain for those creatures who claimed to be werewolves.

As people walked through the dining room, I would eagerly look up, hoping to catch a glimpse of Serenity. However, none of them turned out to be her, which was disappointing. Everyone was terrified of me, and the only person who shouldn't fear me appeared to despise my company and made a promise to avoid me.

It was a bit strange because Serenity had been quite dependent all day yesterday. Feeling the genuine love and affection she had for me as her partner, it was hard to believe that she wouldn't see me before I departed.

I requested assistance, and she promptly arrived.

"Where can I find Serenity?" I inquired because I reached my limit. I desired her presence beside me as we shared a meal. Indeed, it may seem unconventional, but I couldn't resist the strong desire to be near her and gaze into her captivating eyes.

The maid informed me with a curtsy that she had been absent since the previous day. My heart sank as shock and irritation filled me.

Is she really being serious? This is simply unacceptable!

How did it go missing?

"Can you clarify your statement?" I almost yelled but succeeded in toning my voice down.

"We haven't laid eyes on her since yesterday afternoon," murmured the maid quietly. At that moment, it dawned on me what the woman, who I suppose was the Luna, had mentioned regarding Serenity.

I was starting to understand.

"Is Serenity a wolf with supernatural qualities?" I asked the maid, who seemed startled by my voice, which had taken on a low and intense tone as anger surged within me.

The Luna and the Alpha arrived before she had a chance to respond.

"I agree with you." Serenity, a demon wolf, is a member of our pack due to her mother's previous role as the Luna. She has fled from the group because of your actions. She was aware of your strong dislike for demons and understood that if you ever laid eyes on her again, you would take immediate action. It seemed like she thought you were aware of her real identity. The Alpha quietly explained, showing respect by bowing.

"We apologize for not informing you." I take full responsibility for concealing her identity, as I simply aimed to protect her from any potential consequences. I apologize. The alpha knelt down, and the luna followed suit, along with the maid. They all humbly knelt before me, pleading for my forgiveness for their failure to inform me about the true nature of my partner.

The Luna had subtly indicated to me, but I never took it seriously. As I listened to the Alpha speak, my heart was filled with sorrow. I felt incredibly distressed, to the point where I couldn't even find the words to express myself.

I found myself in a union with a supernatural being. The merciless beings who took the lives of my fellow Lycan comrades and nearly eradicated our entire race. Our numbers in the kingdom were greatly diminished by the destructive forces of the demons, leading us to adopt a strict policy of eliminating anyone we encountered.
