[Lyander's POV]
The celebration night was like any other. Throwing a party for successfully retrieving the pups was customary in the Silver Moon Pact. But even without the occasion, we like to huddle around the campfire to drink and eat.
Colm and I were seated around in one of the many campfires in the vast land of the pact as we basked in the light of the moon and chugged a bunch of roasted meat and beers.
Colm handed me a beer and sat beside me.
"Thanks," I said and took a few swigs. I enjoyed the coldness that ran down my throat, and the bitter taste was what I needed to forget about Trinity.
"You haven't been yourself since we arrived here." Colm munched a steak and chugged a bottle of beer before his face crunched. "Must be these drinks."
He then looked at the campfires where the others mostly congregate with their mates. "I don't know why Reynar had to be so petty that even he ordered to hand down cheap level beers to us while his group enjoyed the good booze without doing anything but take on weaker wolves to prove their superiority."
"Beer is beer," I said and emptied my bottle.
"DO you know what he did when we were out? He was pestering Terishia all day, and if it wasn't for Ernst's interference, something might have happened to her." Colm shook his head. "Bastard."
My wolf growled, and it took another bottle of beer to shut him. We didn't like what Reynar was doing in the pact, and the moment when we knew that Terishia was harassed, all the fond memories with Trinity vanished, and we were back to being a grumpy wolf.
Though Terishia was strong, she still couldn't ignore a direct command from the Alpha. It was a dangerous power that shouldn't be in the hands of Reynar.
Aggression racked my body. Just the thought that she was harassed was enough to make me and my wolf livid in fury. My wolf was salivating with the need to kill, and I had to chug two beers in succession to drown him away even if I knew that it wouldn't do much since wolves hardly get drank.
I thought that I could hold my wolf in after the encounter with Trinity. The memories of her were enough to calm him down.
But now . . . my wolf was agitated and easily angered again because of the news. Terishia and Colm were like brother and sister to us, and I had to avoid Reynar since I heard the news to prevent chaos in the pact.
I just wished that Reynar would continue to leave me alone or else . . . Even Ernst wouldn't be able to stop my wolf from tearing his son apart.
I knew I was an anomaly since the day I was born. Even with a pact, I didn't have loyalty to the Alpha, and my wolf was constantly howling in my head to challenge him for the position.
If not for my respect and gratitude to Ernst for taking me in, Reynar would probably be dead by now.
My wolf is strong, and everyone knew it.
Terishia sauntered five minutes later. She was a head-turner with her simple dress and strange pinkish hair. The color of her fur was different as well. It was the same color of her hair, white gradating to pink.

She always had the innocent face of a lady but had a fierce heart of a warrior with superb combat abilities. If she had been a male, she would definitely be the Alpha, and my wolf and I would happily serve her.
Many single wolves wanted her for themselves, and sometimes, even other pacts were striking deals with Ernst for her hand. If not that Reynar was interested in her, she had long been exchanging for an expanse wide of land.
"Hello, boys." Terishia made herself comfortable between us and opened a bottle of beer with the flick of her wrist.
"Why the long faces?" Terishia asked and swallowed a mouthful before she spat it on the side. "What the fuck is this?"
Colm and I looked away. If only she could be more ladylike.
"Stop cursing. You sounded like an old woman."
Terishia flung her eyebrow at Colm. "You men cursed all the time, but we women can't?"
"That's why Lyander wouldn't agree to mate with you. You felt more like a brother than an actual girl."
Stop throwing the attention to me. I grumbled.
"Ha?" Terishia flung an eyebrow at Colm before she looked me in the eyes with a concerning smile on her lips. She leaned closer to my face, stretching the hem of her dress, revealing her ample cleavage for me to view.
"Lyander and I already made a promised that if he turned twenty-four and still didn't find his mate, we'd mate each other, right?"
She then blew hot air on my ears and whispered, "I'll make sure to save my purity then~."
I shivered, and goosebumps erupted on my skin. I leaned away from her and growled, "Stop fooling around."
I like her but not in that way. She knew it, and she used it as an advantage over me.
Terishia burst out laughing while Colm shrugged his shoulders and sighed.
"Honestly, I'd be happy if you two ended up with each other."
"Aw . . ." Terishia's lower lips puckered out, and she cooed, "Don't worry Colm, baby. If you also didn't find your mate, I'll take you in as well. In that way, I'd have two gorgeous, strong ass men serving me."
She grinned and winked. "I'm okay with threesome too."
I felt the coldness of the beer unpleasant suddenly, and Colm made gagging sounds.
"Stop with your weird jokes. I'll puke."
I wanted to throw my bottle his way. You started it.
My wolf calmed downed and no longer agitated at Terishia's dimpled smiles. It looked like what happened with Reynar wasn't a big deal. I was glad to know that she was okay and was acting like usual.
The night went on as usual, and Terishia had to go home ahead to make sure that Timothy was sleeping soundly in his room. Sometimes that little squirt was more trouble than he's worth. He would sneak into the forest and hunt for little creatures, thinking that might push his wolf to come out.
"Hey," Colm called, "Do you want to go to the usual?"
"The usual?" My eyes lingered on the others who were still conversing on the campfire. It was ten, and the night was still young.
"Yeah. The beer here tasted like crap. And I miss the hot wings in Boar's bar."
"You do realize that it's human territory, right?"
"So? It's not against the rules."
"Not against our rules but against human rules."
Colm rolled his eyes. "And since when did you care about the humans?"
I blinked. He was right. I don't.
My wolf grew excited at the prospect of meeting Trinity again. My heart thumped. It was slim, but I was still hopeful, like I didn't know any better.
Colm grinned from ear to ear when he saw the approval on my face.
"Let's go."
