Chapter 78
It was a long and deep wolf howl followed by the noise of a large group fighting.
“It’s from the North Gate!” Balvina snapped her head towards Janet, “Gamma Janet! What do we do?”
Even till this point, none of them knew what the battle plan was, except for Janet.
They weren’t sure whether they should stand by right where they were or go to help the others out.
Janet answered briefly with a nod, “Let’s go and give them a hand.”
She leaped forward and shifted into a silver wolf in mid–air. All Blood Moon soldiers shifted behind their
Gamma and followed her dashing towards the North.
The view was very poor in the heavy storm. It wasn’t until they reached the North Gate of the fort did
they saw fire and fighting soldiers.
It was a heated battle.
There were already many injured or dead bodies lying everywhere. Red blood splashed from many
soldiers‘ open wounds and spilled across the snowy ground, forming a striking contrast to the white
color of the snow.
Wolves were biting each other and wrestling on the ground with hot steam gushing out of their fangs–
bared mouth and nose.
Some had lost energy to shift, and they engaged in sword or gunfight. The sound of bullets shooting
and clicking and crashing of blades could be heard from all over the place.
In the center of the battlefield, a giant black wolf with a huge scar on its face was taking on 6 soldiers at
the same time. He was extremely strong and fierce. It took 6 men, and they still couldn’t bring him to
his knee.
Janet let out a deafening roar and jumped at the black wolf. She was small compared to his massive
size, but very fast and agile.
“Here comes the little she–wolf!” Sterning crackled, “Ready to kneel beneath the Rouge King’s feet?”
Janet charged at him. She delicately twisted her body in the mid–air and got onto Sterning’s back.
The giant black wolf growled in fury and tried to shake her off. But her four paws clung tightly to its back
fur.
Lowering her head, she bit his neck sinking her sharp fangs into his flesh.
Sterning roared in pain and struggled even harder trying to throw her off his back. But he failed. The
other 6 soldiers swamped him from all sides.
Janet ripped off a part of his flesh with her teeth and spat it to the ground.
“Your blood rakes,” she hissed with disgust.
Just then, another rogue circled and tried to sneak up on her from the back.
But Janet didn’t notice. Her entire focus was on Sterning.
Kass just finished up with a rogue. He turned around and spotted that Janet was in danger.
danger.
“Janet WATCH OUT!!”
He roared and dashed as fast as he could towards Janet, trying to save her from that.
But he was too far away.
There wasn’t enough time.
And right at this second, somebody beat him to it.
A gigantic wolf arrived at the battlefield with a loud howl. Ile seized the rogue between his fangs and
shook his giant head, sending that rogue flying up into the air
and dropping dead to the ground without a sound.
“Daran!” Janet gasped with excitement. Her heart was finally at case at the sight of
him.
Sterning jerked around, his face horror–struck.
“Daran…” he hissed.
Some of the other rogues cried out in panic, “Daran is here!”
“Christ, it’s Daran!”
Fear spread across the battlefield like a plague.
“Steady!” Sterning snapped, “We have Crimson Fortress! Ain’t gonna lose the battle this time!
Everybody stays right where you are!”
Daran snorted coldly, “You won’t have it for long.”
His black fur rustled in the wind in a majestic manner, almost god–like.
Then he charged fiercely at Sterning.
With Daran and Riverside’s soldiers here, Janet finally had time to check on other soldiers.
She found Glen not far away from the battlefield lying underneath a tree. There was a deep cut on his
back.
“Glen!” Janet rushed to his side, “Are you hurt? What happened!”
Glen tried to pull himself up from the ground but failed. He let out a low–grown, “I started the attack at
the North Gate as planned. But the rogues were already waiting for us! It was like walking right into
their trap!”
Janet frowned.
“I think they got hands on our plan again!” Glen stomped the ground with his fist in rage, “That f**king
traitor…”
“Have you told anyone about our plan?” Janet asked.
“No! I got Alpha Daran’s message about the battle plan around dusk and haven’t spoken to anyone
since!” Glen said frustratedly, “But I can only speak for myself. Don’t know if the other Gammas had
told anyone or not.”
Janet nodded and knelt by his side, “Let’s take you to a doctor. You are still bleeding.”
“Forget about me! We need to retreat immediately,” Glen said urgently. “The
rogues know about our plan already. We are losing. Call everyone back before we lose more soldiers!”
“Relax. Daran is here. We don’t know it for sure yet,” Janet tried to comfort him.
“Are you crazy? I know Alpha Daran is strong, but he has only one man and he is facing a large
crowd-”
He was cut off by a deafening roar.
They jerked around to look simultaneously.
Daran was standing on top of a dead rogue’s body and howling at the moon. His strong Alpha aura
brought many rogues to tremble down to their knees.
Sterning struggled to stand straight but his body trembled violently under his animal instinct.
“Hand over your King!” Daran bared his fangs at Sterning, “Or I will rip your throat open!”
Sterning panted roughly with blood dripping down his face. Then he let out a strange
laugh, “We are not like you hypocrites. We will never betray our King!”
“Well then.”
Daran’s eyes gleamed dangerously, “Prepare to die.
Furious growls could be heard across the battlefield.
Sterning was threatening them with civilians‘ lives! And there seemed to be nothing they could do about
it.
“Alpha Daran! We got the Crimson Fortress! We won!!”
Sterning snapped his head around. The cocky smile was quickly replaced by horror. “Impossible!”
Sterning snapped with widened eyes, “How did you–Why-”
Daran sneered coldly, “Try/and figure this out in hell.”
He leapt and charged forward at Sterning at full speed!
