***I woke up to find myself in the territory of the rogue pack, the forbidden smell of wolves who betrayed their packs and formed a clique hung heavily in the air. It was the smell of rogues. Vaguely, I heard what I later figured to be an argument. "I told you not to touch her! Did you see her body? What the fuck is wrong with you?!" A familiar voice angrily yelled and I could tell that the sound came with a push at his opponent. "She was resisting, we had to stop her somehow!""By hurting her? We had a deal, if you touch even a strand of hair on her head, I will not keep quiet about it!" I figured out the owner of the voice. It was Derek. But the other party, I couldn't identify. "Will you beat me up then? Are you going to hit me for a fuckin cunt?"There was another rough shove, "Are you trying to test me, you son of a fuckin bitch?""I told you she was resisting. Should I have let her be so she could run to Ace and have us all fucked up?""And inflicting injuries on her body w

***I was shoved into the large hall where the injured rogues were kept, the strong stench of their blood almost made me throw up. Ryker introduced me to the doctor they captured and told him I would be assisting him in tending to the rogues' injuries. Derek wasn't exaggerating when he said estimated the number of injured rogues, they were indeed thousands and I could only imagine the number of lives that were lost in the fight. The rogues were not thoroughly trained, from their skills one could easily tell. They majorly depended on weapons and brute forces, and they lacked physical tactics. While the Ocean Howls Pack had fiercely trained warriors and heavy weapons, the rogues had only weapons to fight them with, hence they ended up on the losing side. I turned to find Ryker behind me, glaring at me in a way that caused an uneasy jump in my belly. I tore my gaze off and got to work as he requested. I let the doctor, who already looked worn out and obviously beaten, attend to the

***Due to the rogue blood in my body, I was losing my strength and fastly losing consciousness, but my healing power didn't stop struggling to take full control of my being and fight out the effect of the strange blood in my system. When it did, I gradually gained momentum and just as I began to force my way up, my legs were locked in a tight grip. I looked down and saw one of Derek's warriors, the others were swimming towards me professionally. With my strength from the healing ability and my Luna skills, I began fighting him off. I wriggled and kicked until he finally let go of me and I finished him off with a sharp punt across his face. The other rogues reached me and I fought them off too, their blood stained the water and it took a while to get rid of all of them. I watched as their body drove down the river. I started swimming up, using my little experience to fight off the waves while holding my breath. I was no longer choking but I couldn't deny that I still felt highly u

***The black wolf hopped on the henchmen and I heard the cracking of skulls. When it turned to me, its paws covered in blood, and our eyes locked; I felt a sense of fulfillment. Derek took a few steps back, dropping my hands as he transformed and charged at Ace. While they fought, both pack warriors faced themselves and battled. I noticed the old woman trying to crawl away from the bloodlust and I immediately rushed to help her. I moved her to a safe corner and began untying the ropes. Once her hands were free, I went at once for the rope on her legs, I struggled until it came off and then helped her sit. "Are you okay? Did they hurt you?""No," she shook her head, sobbing. I could hear her heavy breathing as her trembling hands clutched her chest and I knew she was scared."It's okay, Marissa. Everything is okay now, I promise. Nothing will happen to you, I will make sure of it," I assured her. She glanced at the fight scene, shuddered, and withdrew. I pulled her to me, hugging

I was wrong when I thought our problems were over after we defeated Derek and saved the villagers. Although there was no encounter with Derek for the entire one week of my return, the pack house was still in chaos. The heat of the attack could still be felt in the underworld as many packs were harassed in the process by the rogues. Ace was still bent on finding the Rogues that abducted me and Derek was nowhere to be found. He didn't even return to the Crimson Pack. I didn't know if that was the truth or if Jeffrey was simply hiding him but even a thorough search couldn't provide him from the Crimson Pack and around, and Ace wasn't stepping down with his quest. The Ocean Howls pack wasn't one who stepped down in a fight and Ace was determined to bring all the perpetrators to book. He had Henry supply more weapons to the warriors in the Eastern borders and every other border owned by the Ocean Howls Pack. They were all on the lookout for Derek and his goons. It became the talk of the
