Thrain arrived at school with his usual smile and a sense of anticipation. Mark, already settled in, returned the smile."Hey, man! What's got you so happy today?" Mark asked, curious to know the reason behind Thrain's cheerful demeanor."Well, what can I say? I'm always happy, Mark. Just the little things in life," Thrain replied, chuckling."I see right through you. It seems like you've been seeing someone lately... Am I hitting the mark here? Tell me about her," Mark prodded, eager for some juicy details.Thrain was momentarily left speechless, but luckily their classroom teacher, Mr. Rodriguez, appeared, saving him from having to respond. He let out a sigh of relief as the class commenced, which ended quite quickly with the assignment.During lunch break, they returned to the classroom and engaged in discussions. Mark interrupted, remembering something."Oh, yeah! I almost forgot to tell you all, Alex wants to see us today," Mark announced.Curious glances were exchanged among the
Thrain sat on a bench, his body drenched in sweat, breaths coming in heavy pants. Dressed only in his training attire, he glared fiercely at the werewolves surrounding him.Aurelia had pushed Thrain to his limits over the past three months, and the results were evident in his physical transformation. His body had bulked up, his height had increased, and his six-pack abs and biceps displayed not only size but immense strength pulsating through his muscles.Standing up from his seat, Thrain spoke softly, yet with an air of dominance, "Once again, Aurelia, I'm going to surpass you today.""Well, let's see," Aurelia's voice dripped with arrogance and confidence.Thrain charged at him, his claws outstretched, moving with incredible speed. He aimed a direct push at Aurelia, but his opponent quickly countered with a swift kick."Such a unique creature. Just three months of training, and he's already this fast without even resorting to his werewolf form," Aurelia thought, a smirk playing on h
Thrain found himself slightly annoyed by his actions, but he recognized that there was little he could do. However, his desire for Ethan to be seriously injured troubled him.As Alex observed Thrain, he noticed a change in his appearance. His once meticulously groomed hair had grown long and fallen, and he now stood tall with an air of confidence."Considering the significant improvements he has made in just three months, what kind of training did he undergo?" Alex wondered to himself.Suddenly, an idea sparked within Thrain's mind. "Since we are both supernatural beings, voice transmission should work, right?"{Lila, can you hear me?} Thrain mentally reached out.{What do you want after hurting me this much?} Lila retorted."Thank goodness it works," Thrain thought as he let out a sigh of relief.{Um, sorry. I was merely attempting to save Ethan. I need you to attack me now at your fastest, and I will pretend to hit you while you do the same, acting} Thrain explained.{And who said
Lila woke up frozen in fear at the sight of her father. She knew there was no escape route after losing in a fight with Thrain, although she didn't regret her actions since it was solely her decision."What happened here?" he repeated himself.They all froze in fear as they began to shriek at the sound of his voice."Since there is no one here to give a response, how about starting with you," he said, addressing Santiano.Santiano immediately went down on one knee as he began to explain things to Rodriguez.Mr. Rodriguez laughed hysterically. "Who knew my student is capable of this much?" he mumbled.They all heard what he said, but a confused look was etched on their faces, not understanding what he meant by 'my student'.…"Thrain, you're yet to tell us how you got this strong in just three months... I also want to get stronger," Ethan said.Thrain looked up and said softly, "It's almost dawn?"He glanced at Ethan and said, "You want to get stronger, but do you have the resolve to w
The class ended as usual with an assignment, and the entire class couldn't help but express their frustration. "Not again!" they blurted out.Mrs. Emily Anderson suddenly freaked out, not used to such an uproar from her students. "I hope everything is alright?" she asked, concerned.A student named Derek stood up, blushing slightly, and said, "Yes, Mrs. Anderson, but the issue is the assignment. Our classroom has always been loaded with assignments in the past. And now, you're adding even more, which is becoming a problem.""Oh! Alright, let's do it this way. I'll suspend the next assignment," she said with a soft smile."What! There was going to be another one?" another student exclaimed."There is no way I would call it teaching if I didn't give you guys assignments. Besides, you're grown-ups and shouldn't be freaked out by assignments. And I've already handed them out, so they can't be revoked," Mrs. Anderson explained.Derek sat back down, letting out a sigh of relief. Mrs. Emily
"My objective is quite simple. All I want is a détente between the wolves and vampires," he said with a smile."Huh!" they all exclaimed. They were expecting him to say something with an evil ideal attached, but what they heard was totally impossible."But, you know that's not possible, right?" Mark asked."Obviously, I know, but I'm not one to back down whenever I've gotten myself involved. In addition, I've found the perfect weapon to unleash this deadly idea," he said, turning his gaze to Thrain."What! Is that the reason behind you training Thrain to this extent? And how do you expect that to happen? The vampires giving up to absolute strength in the infinite growlers or war?" Ethan asked."I have my approach, so don't bother yourself and just get stronger so you won't be cleared alongside the wave," he said, smiling."But why would you want the vampires and werewolves to be on friendly terms? You know this war and hatred have been flaming for decades. What exactly is the reason b
The doorbell rang continuously as Thrain's mom became enraged. "Who's pressing the doorbell this frantically late at night?" she thought."Thrain!" she shouted, calling for his attention from downstairs. "Do you have a visitor today?" she asked."Uhm, no," he replied, walking down the stairs in his clean white singlet and clean shorts."Well, go check who's at the door. And yeah, while you're at it, get me a chilled water for the freezer," she said."Okay, Mom," he responded.As soon as he reached the door, the doorbell was pressed again. "Would you hold on," he shouted as he opened the door."What! Mark, but... I never thought it would be tonight. And what's with all the books and the travel bag? I hope you aren't staying here forever?" he asked, looking perplexed.Mark realized that Thrain had become taller and more muscular since they last saw each other. Annoyed, Mark stood up and spoke slowly and softly, "Would you rather feed me with questions than invite me in?""Oh! I'm sorry,
The next morning, Mark woke up feeling very exhausted. He yawned and looked around, only to see Thrain sweating profusely on the floor as he continued his push-ups.Lost in thought, Mark wondered why Thrain was pushing himself so hard, but he was brought back to reality by Thrain's voice."You're awake! I hope you had a nice night using my bed?" Thrain teased."Yeah, good morning. Your bed was fantastic, really soft and comfy, but what happened to the fresh breeze? It felt really hot throughout the night," Mark replied."Well, how do you expect me to notice that? I don't feel cold or hot, just an irregular temperature compared to normal humans, so I sold both the ceiling fan and standing fan," Thrain explained."What about your mom?" Mark asked, feeling concerned."You don't have to worry about that. She doesn't come into my room, so she won't notice," Thrain reassured him.Suddenly, Thrain felt a presence, then in an instant, it was gone."Let's get ready for school or we'll be late,
Here it is, another bright morning. They all woke up in their respective houses with bright smiles etched on their faces.Fiona rolled in her bed inside her luxuriously designed pinkish room, same as the rest.Thrain and the others arrived at school, greeting each other as if it were a new season and a new beginning. The classes went well and ended with an assignment, and the usual student reactions remained unchanged.Outside the school building, Thrain stood in front of them all: Fiona, Ethan, and Mark.Mark, on the other hand, had decided not to participate in any activities. Instead, he chose to expand his knowledge and gather information about their kind, hoping to be of help in a different and unique way.Thrain interjected, claiming that there was a reason for everything and that was why Mark was presently with them."I think you're all ready?" Thrain asked with a smile on his face."Yes, we are!" they responded with enthusiasm, making Thrain's head swell."You guys are then re
Santiano felt sweat dripping off his body, and he instinctively touched his face, realizing he was completely drenched. He stood there, unable to speak, and bowed in silence.Vampires flooded into the room, as if they were feeling oppressed. Mr. Rodriguez turned his head and saw all of them pushing through the door.A soft smile appeared on his lips as he slightly tilted his head."I think it's been a while since you all experienced my wrath. How about I start with you?" he said, pointing towards Santiano.Santiano closed his eyes, knowing there was no going back. His eyes glowed red, aware that the only way to resist Mr. Rodriguez's attacks was to use his full powers. He knew Mr. Rodriguez wouldn't stop once he had someone marked.Santiano's face grew pale when he heard the next words."Think I want to do it myself? No! They would," after he spoke, all the vampires present dashed towards Santiano with intense killing intent.Santiano, being the second strongest vampire after Lila, wo
"You failed your mission... Why?" the head of the exterminators asked.Katie, with her head lowered, replied, "I didn't expect the wolf to have ties with the Infinite Growlers, the two brothers, to be precise.""The two brothers?""Yes, Alex and the lost one," she said."And how do you know he is the one?" he asked, curiosity etched on his face as he slowly took a puff."They both had the mark of the FIRST, although it was barely noticeable. But I knew it because you recite their story to me.""Oh! You remembered, and Foster never ceases to amaze me. 'THE FIRST,' huh.""First mission accomplished!" he exclaimed, hitting the table with his hand."But father!" Katie exclaimed."The information you just gave me could be classified as SSR+. Now there are only six of the most strongest supernaturals.""Foster, The Rodriguez, Alex, Thrain, and the third strongest remains hidden, with his intentions unknown.""So, Foster, the one we met, is the strongest, right? While The Rodriguez is the st
Katie threw her elbow towards Alex's jaw, but it seemed she had underestimated him. He didn't budge at all and managed to break free from her hold.As her eyes met Alex's, Katie immediately glanced at Thrain, feeling a sense of tension between them. She let out a sigh and said, "What a sight, seeing brothers together. But don't think I'll let you guys go like that."Thrain, puzzled by the repeated mention of "brother," slowly unbuttoned his shirt and dropped it to the ground.Alex looked at Thrain closely, sensing his anger simmering beneath his calm demeanor.Thrain directed his attention back to Katie and asked, "Your name?""Katie," she replied.Upon hearing the name, Alex felt a flicker of recognition, but couldn't quite place it."Wondering why I took off my clothes, Katie?" Thrain said with a hint of sarcasm. Without wasting any time, he dashed towards Katie, engaging her in hand-to-hand combat.Surprised by Thrain's skill and proficiency, Katie reached into her inner strap and
An old man sat in a cramped office, a cigarette hanging from his mouth. His leg was propped up on the table, and on the brown surface lay a gun, stun gun, and scattered silver bullets.He exhaled a puff of smoke and spoke softly, "Katie, I think it's time for you to gain real experience. Intense training alone won't guarantee your position as the next heir. What do you think?" His voice carried a thick, husky tone."I'll go, and I'll be sure to accomplish my task!" she replied confidently.He took another drag of his cigarette and stood up. Walking towards Katie, he gently rubbed her cheek. The old man smiled and asked, "How's your left eye?""It's taking time, but it is gradually healing," she answered."Do you resent me?" he inquired."Nope, I have no reason to do that. Everything is for my own sake, resenting you would be committing a sin," she replied sincerely.The old man let out a sigh as he walked towards the door, placing his hands on the handle. "There's a werewolf going ram
Ten minutes ago.Thrain ran straight for the school, knowing that Ethan would likely be there even after the piano academy closed. As he arrived at the school, he mind-linked with Ethan.{“Ethan, where are you?”}Ethan immediately received the message and replied almost instantly.{“I'm inside the library's reading room.”}{“What's your situation?”}{“Not looking good. I'm surrounded by six werewolves, and two of them seem eager to kill me.”}Alex and Fiona also mind-linked with Ethan and Thrain.{“Are you guys alright?”} Alex asked.{“Things aren't looking too good here.”} Ethan replied.{“Make a soft howl, and I'll locate you.”} Alex said....Ethan appeared slightly more relaxed and responded, “A pack always walks together, so who said I was alone!”The six werewolves became wary as suddenly Thrain, Alex, Zane, and Fiona appeared seemingly out of nowhere.Zena stepped forward and spoke softly, “If you want to touch one of my betas, you'll have to go through me first.”Thrain approa
Mark and Thrain entered the school, greeted their friends, and met up with Ethan and Fiona. After their classes were over, they all went for lunch together.Thrain said goodbye to the others, promising he would come back for them later, and headed towards the piano academy. When he opened the door to the practice room, he was captivated by the sight of a beautiful lady playing a melodious tune on the piano. He sat down next to her and played in sync with her.After they finished playing, she asked him, "What took you so long?"Thrain replied, "I skipped school for three months because I didn't want any issues involving my mom. I'm really sorry for everything."Lila turned towards him, her eyes teary. Thrain realized he had missed his dear friend."I know I put you in a dangerous situation, but I couldn't leave my friends," he said softly.Lila asked, "How are things progressing on your side?"Thrain responded, "They're going smoothly, but we still need someone we can trust from your
