Phil returned to the kitchen like nothing happened and sat on the floor behind a counter close legged and closed his eyes. He wanted to cultivate for a bit because he wanted to get stronger. He thus wanted to take any available moment no matter how short to power up. Now that he had seen that Ravi's father was that despeakable man, and he had promised the other boy revenge, he was more than determined to grow stronger so that one day, he could thrash Philip as payment for what he did to Ravi. He sat there for a while and since his mind was concentrated on absorbing the mana in his surroundings, he didn't hear Hari come in. When Hari walked in, he was sure that Ravi was still in the kitchen because he had just seen the boy walk in a moment ago. He thus looked for him not sure where he had gone and that was when he saw him. He was sitting behind the counter that held the freezer close eyed. Hari was taken aback by that scene. He had never quite really taken his time to look at the oth
Phil was quick to do the breakfast utensils then went to the laundry room and within no time, all the laundry was done. Though he did it by hand and not by the big machine that was there that he didn't yet remember how to use. He would have asked Hari but the other boy had an errand to run for his father but he promised to be back by lunch time. Phil was eagerly waiting for Hari's return. If it was the old Ravi, he would have wondered why he would be waiting for another man's return but this was Phil waiting for his Joe. He knew that his heart beat for the other boy and he was eager to see him, again. He had just been reborn and he wanted to spend every waking moment in the other boy's company. Within no time, he was done with the laundry and he was back in the kitchen preparing lunch. He hated doing this but since he still needed to stay here as he wasn't strong enough to stand on his own, he would do it. He also wanted to see what Philip was up to and he also wanted revenge for Ra
He wore his clothes and came out from behind the tree. Hari was still admiring that picture he had taken of Ravi’s wolf and when he felt Ravi coming towards him, he showed it to him with a smile. He had adoration and worship on his face for the big wolf. “Look at you. Your wolf is humongous!” Hari said and there was nothing but admiration in that voice.Ravi sat beside Hari and also looked at that picture. He had to admit that it was humongous for a wolf. With this kind of a wolf, he would be the most powerful with the right training. And if his wolf could coexist with the mage in him, he would become the king of all packs. He was going to make Ravi's sacrifice worth it. “Not even alpha Philip or my father can come close to you. And you know what? Legend has it that wolves your size were the original kings. I also have never seen a wolf with your colour. That dark sheen was blinding. I am sure that there is a meaning behind it. Many wolves are either white or brown. Take me for exam
They were laughing as they entered the small gate at the back of the mansion. It wasn't really late and if Ravi worked fast, he would be able to finish his work early. They looked as if they did not have any care in the world and as they entered, Hari pulled Ravi in a hurry and held his head as he motioned to him to squat under a flower pot. "What's wrong?" Ravi asked in a small voice as he squatted next to Hari. He didn't know what it was that had made Hari so flustered but he knew one thing, Hari wouldn't look like that just for nothing. "Shhh! The Alpha and Luna are here. I think they are looking for you," Hari whispered and he looked fearful. Ravi had decided not to draw attention onto him and he wanted to save Hari. He didn't want Hari to be punished for him. He thought quickly and decided to use magic. He wasn't sure that it would work because this body was still new to him and he hadn't cultivated a lot. But he knew he had accumulated enough mana in his body to summon a simp
For the next many, several, days, Hari and Ravi would do the house chores very quickly and go for training. They would make sure that no one found out and Ravi made sure that he stayed out of his step mother's way so as to avoid any collisions with her. He knew that he wouldn't take any more abuse from her and he thus made sure to stay away. He didn't know how long he could pretend to be the Ravi whom they could bully as much as they wanted. What he didn't want was for them to know that he was practicing and getting better at it. He knew that Hari wasn't a professional but he was doing his best to make sure that Ravi learnt everything he knew. Hari also knew that it would be just a matter of weeks, or even days, before Ravi surpassed him in matters combat. This was because Ravi was a fast learner and he had the will. And someone with a will would eventually find a way. Ravi, on the other hand, was doing everything he could to grow better in both combat as a wolf, as a person and mag
As usual, Hari had been sent by his father to deliver a letter to a person who lived in the city of Lyrad that was about three hours away from the Pack's abode. He didn't ask any questions and he just ran the errands given to him. He knew that his father intended to one day overthrow alpha Philip and become the king of the Moonlight Pack. He has never told it like that to Hari but Hari knew his old man well. He was greedy and ambitious and that was why he wanted Hari to become the best among his peers. Maybe his father hoped that Hari would support him in becoming king. Hari could still remember the day he turned. Both his aunt, his mother's sister, and father were there and when the old man saw that Hari was an alpha, his joy was unbound. Hari couldn't remember the exact words that came out of his father's mouth because he was in so much pain that he couldn't focus. It was his aunt who knelt by him and soothed him. The father was happy beyond measure to care about the pain. He told h
Phil almost answered her but from the way she was looking at him and the sly smile she had about her face, it clearly told him that this must have been a trap. He thus swallowed the words he was about to say and looked at her in thought. Firstly, he didn't know who she was. Secondly, he felt like he was being set up. So, he looked at her and smiled. That smile that he knew made many ladies fall at his feet. Too bad that he wasn't into that and he wasn't sure that this woman would fall for it but there was no harm in trying, right? Right? "And who are you, if you don't mind my asking?" He asked, politely, trying to buy time so that he could come up with an appropriate answer. He already knew she wasn't human seeing where they were and the fact that she knew he was both Ravi and Philip. "My name is Aali, I am the keeper of this garden. You can call it my hobby," she said as she smiled and then bent to touch a flower. Hari expected her to continue and maybe tell her more about hersel
Experts, psychologists and even philosophers say that the best way to enact revenge is to be very happy that those who hurt you will feel jealous and that is revenge enough. Others say that if you can't let it go, then, dig two graves before you embark on the journey of revenge. This is because you will have to bury yourself and the other person who you want to take revenge on. In a nut shell, revenge is a two edged sword that hurts both sides. But Ravi, Phil rather, didn't care about all this. He knew that it was revenge that caused his death in his previous life but he didn't care and he justified it by saying that he was wiser now. He had stood by as he watched people hurt his loved ones until he had no more reason to live but not in this life. Never again. He won't allow anyone to hurt the man he loved. The man who made him cast that one final spell to be reborn again. He asked for a second chance and he won't let any person mess it up for him. After they got dressed, Ravi still
