Capítulo 65: Chapter 65 - The stifling lunch

The full moon ceremony, "It's a tradition on every full moon the wolves would pray to their moon goddess in their wolf from and it's followed by a hunt," Nicolai read through the file.

Someone had thankfully compiled all the of the pack's traditions for him in a file and left it by his doorstep. Nico somehow knew who it was from the cedar scent all over it but he decided to ignore it.

"This full moon ceremony... I need to display my powers to the other pack members." Nicolai was determined. He was going to fake it until he can make I.

"What can I do to impress the wolves... hunt an elk? Hunt a dear? Is it something to be impressed off..." he laid on his bed thinking of this issue.

His hunting process was a kind of messy. He had to chase after the prey and bite into its jugular to take it down. In this process, he will definitely be covered head to toe in blood.

'Wouldn't the pack be more scared of me if I display that skill... gosh, this is so difficult. I would have easily hunted an elk with a gun.' He sat up. "They have guns here, right? They must have some weapons," he hurried out the door.

In the study, he met Killian right by the door.

"Hey, you guys have guns,"

Killian froze. "um.. we.. we actually..."

"I'm not trying ti kill you alpha I want to us those guns of the hunt this evening." He clarified his intention.

"Oh thank god," Killian let out a deep breath. "We do have guns. I'll show you the weapons room." he led them over to the basement.

Nicolai froze by the door. This place looked just as it did before but the only difference was the steel walls. "Why do you guys have steel walls here? Won't it get hot?"

"We have a reason. The steel walls are there to protect the building integrity,"

"From what?"

"From our alpha rampage..." Killian softly whispered and walked ahead.

"Rampage? What do you mean?" he chased after him and caught up. "Did Dylan go crazy? Like really go crazy in the past years?'

"Yes. When he first awakened his wolf, Wolfie took full control. He went crazy searching for you and when he couldn't find you, he tore things up." Killian said with a grimace. "it was written in the old records. I, of course, have not seen it personally. I heard that his sister rue made this house with fortified steel just to protect himself from getting hurt,"

"Rue stuck him in the basement! What the heck!"

He watched as Killian opened the steel door.

"Why did she do that?! he must have been a kid when he awakened! Who does that to a kid! Rue is not a person who would do that!"

Killian raised a brow. "I don't know who this rue is but let me tell you something, the alpha king is unlike any normal alphas. He has extraordinary powers." He showed the guns to him. "You can pick whatever you want,"

All of the guns in here were old models but they were all oiled up and well maintained. "What kind of powers?" he mumbled picking up a rifle. The handle was made out of wood with engravings on it. The symbols weirdly looked similar to the ones his mother had drawn on that box. 'Time preservation spell, neat,'

"Is that your choice? You have to write down your name and your choice of weapons. The guns had to be returned in ten days and the bullets used has to be reported," Killian handed him a ledger-like book.

"You never answered my question. What kind of extraordinary powers does he have? Powers to annoy people?" Nico rolled his eyes.

"No... he can literally destroy the world if he wants to," Killian said with a weirdly serious look. "He is not to be trifled with."

"Destroy the world?" Nico scoffed. "Your jokes are getting funnier by the day,"

Killian was silently smirking. "You remember the earthquake that day when you left our alpha? It was because of him. if his emotion goes out of control, the world reacts. His howl can bring down buildings. His tears calls down a thunderstorm.... he is powerful Nico. Very powerful that's why the other alphas fear him. He can kill them all with just a howl." He said with a revered expression on his face.

Nicolai thought about it a bit. What Killian said rang true. When Dylan was born a similar such incident happened. His first cry shook the entire building to the core.

'so he does have some powers.... I see,' he took the gun. "Thanks for the gun,"

"Luna wait a bit..."

"What?"

"Um.. you won't shoot anyone with that gun, right."

"No," Nico gave him a weird look. "I'm not like your alpha king. I don't commit genocide," he walked out the door and ran into a sturdy chest.

Glancing up, he saw Dylan looking at him with a saddened look on his face. "I... I came down here to call you for lunch.... your special food has been prepared..." he said and walked away.

Nico felt a sharp pang in his heart. Seeing his retreating back, he felt annoyed, irritated... and sad..

"L-looks like food is ready. I'll meet up with my brothers and join on the dinner table,"

Killian smiled at him.

Nicolai stomped out of the basement.

At the dinner table, everyone had gathered. The wolves with the position in the pack and the alpha king ate together every day. The other pack members ate in a different room; it was much bigger and much more cheerful than this one.

Nico and the other arrived at the dining room. The older wolves had already taken up the spots. New chairs were added for them. Nico counted and the numbers matches up, everyone had a seat.

'Phew, I thought they would bully us slightly. Looks like they are behaving well...'

Dylan walked into the room and walked over to the head seat. Glancing at him, he did not sit there. He grabbed the seat next to it. "Please take a seat,"

'What is that tone.. why does he sound so cold...' Nicolai sat on the head seat. Everyone glanced at them both with a weird gaze.

He waited until his brothers sat down as well.

The food was served. For the vampires, a bowl full of blood was served. And for the werewolves, a huge bowl full of steaks was served. Everyone took at least four servings.

Nicolai sipped it a bit. It was definitely fresh deer blood. It tasted very sweet and bloody. He silently drank it. The other vampires ate it with relish as well.

The werewolves silently ate their steak.

'This silence is stifling. Don't they talk or something... should I break the silence,' Nico glanced at Kiran who had not touched his food? They had served him blood. "he is human," he said to the others.

The wolves all glanced at him.

"Kiran is human.. He is not a vampire. Why did you get him blood?.."

"Sorry, Luna he smelled just like you guys," one of the older werewolves said with a grin.

Nico gritted his teeth. 'So this is how you guys are going to play. Don't underestimate me.' He smiled at that man. 'I will take you all down sooner or later.'
