"You just realized that I never slept with the witch?" Zion asked.
They were on the bed after an exhausting lovemaking. Zion punished her by pleasuring her over and over.
"I know I'm stupid for believing her. I got jealous, so I was mad at you without even listening to you. But now, I will never believe anyone but you. I'm sorry, love."
"Apology accepted." He said, then gave her a quick kiss on the lips.
She pulled him closer and responded to his kisses. The kiss was not enough for both of them and ended in another lovemaking. They were both panting after.
"I didn't know one of your ten forms was a werewolf." Zion commented.
"Yes. Not all of my memories came back. I think only the part that we had been together a hundred years ago. But I remember my werewolf form, and her name was Faith. I also remember my other form, a siren named Avanah." She answered.
"You are truly amazing! I loved to run with you. We haven't done that before." Zion said.
Amaris frowned then smiled at him.
"You mean in our wolf form?" She asked.
Zion nodded. "Let's do that in the morning. Let's run to the Elves' Territory."
"Okay! Let's race! If I win, you have to be my slave!" She exclaimed.
Zion chuckled. "Why do you want me to be your slave? I would love to do whatever you ask without any competition."
"Because you are an Alpha. You could make someone follow your orders by just using your Alpha voice. It's unfair." She answered.
"Oh really? But you could make me follow you with just a simple touch. I will follow you no matter what." He said, amused.
They suddenly heard a commotion outside, so Zion got off the bed with a frown on his face. Amaris stood up, put on some clothes, and followed Zion outside.
"What's happening?"
Cole came running towards them. He was panting and looked exhausted.
"Alpha, Luna, we found a night howler lurking around this area. We caught her." Cole reported.
Then Grakar walked towards them while holding a woman by her arm. The woman was dressed in casual clothing but all covert with dirt. Her eyes widened when she saw who was in front of her.
"Mate!" She exclaimed.
Amaris frowned. Then she realized that the woman was staring at Zion.
"What did you say?" Amaris asked.
The woman didn't answer and instead, jumped into Zion's arms. Zion was confused and looked at Amaris who was glaring at him.
"Wait! I don't feel anything towards this girl! Are you going to run away from me again?" He said while looking at her.
Amaris stared into his eyes and saw his sincerity and loyalty towards her. She was starting to get pissed, so she grabbed the woman's arms, pulling Zion away from the stranger.
But the woman didn't back down and started sniffing Zion. They couldn't understand why she was acting strange.
"Not you! You are not my mate!" The woman exclaimed.
"Yes! Because he's mine, so stay away from him, woman, or I swear I will kill you." Amaris ranted.
The woman ignored her and started sniffing again. Then she shouted again.
"Mate! Mate!"
When they looked behind them, it was Damien. They didn't notice he was standing a few steps away from them. Amaris frowned and stared at the girl, who seemed not looking directly at Damien.
Amaris waved her palm in front of the woman's eyes and realized that she was blind. She was using her nose to sniff her mate and was just following his smell.
Amaris glanced at Zion then turned to Damien, who was not moving from where he stood. The woman was struggling from Grakar's grip and Amaris knew she wanted to run towards Damien.
"Damien?" Amaris called.
Damien sighed and walked towards the woman. Then he held Grakar's hand, silently asking him to let go. Damien felt that he was drawn to the woman, but he knew his father would disagree with him having a werewolf as his mate.
"Oh come on Damien! Are you kidding me? She's your mate. Are you planning on rejecting her?" It was Diana who suddenly went out of their tent.
"You know father would not agree with this." Damien answered.
"Shut up! That's the reason I never wanted to go back home! We're in the modern age. We already lived together with them. Damien, don't make yourself miserable. If you reject her, you know what will happen to you, right?" Diana scolded his brother.
Damien nodded and sighed. Then he looked at Diana then to Maxine and Zoila.
"Can you help her clean up? If you also have clothes for her, can you lend her one? I'll buy her some clothes when we get back." He said.
Diana smiled then walked closer to Damien.
"I want you to be happy. You will never regret choosing your own path." Diana mumbled.
Damien nodded and looked at the woman.
"What's your name? I am Damien of the Vampire Clan." He asked.
"My name is Shelly, a werewolf of the Night Howler's Clan." The woman answered.
"Where's your family? And why are you lurking around here? The Night Howlers lived in Mirrikh. Why are you in Terra?" Zion asked.
Shelly didn't answer for a moment. Amaris smelled fear and sadness towards the woman.
"Shelly, how about we clean you up first, and let's talk? Me, you and the girls." Amaris suggested.
Zion knew that Amaris sensed something towards Shelly, so he agreed and let her handle the night howler.
The girls took Shelly to a nearby spring. Cole and Grakar checked the area to ensure that it was safe for them to take a bath there.
"So, Shelly, would you like to tell us what happened to your family? And why are you here?" Amaris started asking.
Shelly nodded and bit her lips first before telling them her story.
"I am a servant of Phoebus, the Prorocisté. We were attacked; he told me to come here in Terra and find the child of the moon and legendary Alpha.." Shelly exclaimed.
