Chapter 80: Chapter 80

[SAMANTHA’s Point of View]

“Lena! What’s going on!” I screamed at the top of my lungs as I violently pushed the door open with my shoulder. It was baffling that it didn’t budge even after I kicked it with all my strength. Dominic made the house impenetrable from the outside, and he wasn’t kidding about saying it was the safest place for me and the kids.

Ethan was saying something, but I couldn’t hear him. My heart was pounding in my ears as the adrenaline rushed through me like hellfire, burning me from the inside out while hearing those horrible growlings and screamings inside the house. Lena was screaming—not out of fear. She sounded as if she were taming beasts in front of her, and I was terrified of the safety of my twins.

“Lena!! Lena let me in! What the f*ck is going on?!” I screeched in panic. Ethan dragged me away from the door as he attempted to destroy it. I watched him kick it with all his might. The door, which I perceived was made from light but sturdy metal inside the mahogany wood, didn’t even stir from Ethan’s strength.

“What the—” he growled as he grimaced from the pain. The sickening crack I heard was his femur, which he ignored as he flinched away, limping.

“LENA!!!”

I didn’t know what was happening. The shattering noises, the growling, the scratching on the walls, and that scream as if someone was in pain—I couldn’t wrap it all in my head. It was as if I was going crazy and I couldn’t do anything but kick the door. Blood streaked from my hand as my knuckles broke after punching the window and failed to break it. The d*mn thing was made of ballistic-proof glass.

I cursed Dominic in my head as I bared my teeth, ready to shift into my wolf form. I had to get my kids out even if it meant having to tear the f*cking house down.

“I don’t know what’s happening, but I saw Lena locking the door and the windows off,” Ethan panted while wincing from the pain of his broken leg, which was slowly healing. “There’s something wrong inside. I can’t hear the kids.”

My eyes widened in both rage and terror. My eyes glinted red as I flexed my fingers, ready to morph. “They’re in pain,” I said to Ethan. “Diana and Devon are in pain, and they’re scared, Ethan! I have to destroy the house or—”

We both heard the lock of the door click. Lena slightly opened it and gestured for me to come in fast. Ethan and I froze for a second, and, despite my confusion and fear, I ran inside and was flabbergasted by what I witnessed.

My babies... My poor little babies...

In front of me were Diana and Devon in their werewolf form. Their eyes were fixed on me and their granny was full of confusion, pain, and fear. Their feet wobbled and Diana whined as she hid behind her brother with her tail between her legs while Devon’s eyes widened, waiting for me to explain what was happening. He was breathing fast. He was scared, and I knew it was too dangerous to get too close to him. A newly shifted wolfling’s first instinct was to attack anyone who tried to get near or touch them, and it was the last thing I ever wanted to happen because I knew Devon would be traumatized in life if he ever failed to control himself and got me hurt.

I was still in shock and never expected this would happen on the first day of our stay here in Silver Crescent. Was it because of the land that awakened their wolf spirits this early? Was it because their wolves knew they were finally home?

Or did they know there was a dangerous threat in this place, and their wolves tried to protect them?

I turned to Lena. I was stunned by what I saw, as it was too early for them to have their wolves. And even she couldn’t explain what happened. She stammered as she uttered with her eyes wide in shock, “I—I was convincing them to prepare for bed, but they kept on asking if Dominic would come. I told them he’s a little busy today and he couldn’t come to see them, but Devon got mad and Diana—she was feverish and I got worried; I thought about running and telling you that there was something strange with the kids. But when I turned my back, there was a loud explosion and sounds of cracking bones everywhere...Samantha, how could this be possible? They’re just...they’re just eight!”

It was indeed alarming, and I understood Lena’s bewilderment at the situation because an average werewolf shifted to their wolf form between fifteen and eighteen years of age. But with Devon and Diana’s case, there was no explanation of how these happened. I couldn’t believe I had overlooked the signs that the twins’ bodies were ready to have their wolves. My mind was blown thoroughly.

Uncertain how to answer Lena’s question, my attention shifted when Devon and Diana turned back to their human form.

“Goddess, Cynthia! Madisson! Help!”

Lena and I ran and carried the children, making sure they weren’t hurt or if the transformation didn’t cause permanent damage to their bodies. Tears streamed down my face as I embraced my twins with both hands and handed Devon to Lena to carry him to my room. Madison and Cynthia were trembling; they weren’t sure what to do at first, but then realized the twins needed clothing and immediately went to their room and grabbed a pair of their pajamas.

Despite all the awful feelings I felt when I couldn’t get inside the house during the commotion, I was grateful for Lena for her swift thinking about trapping them inside and not letting them get away. New shifters were difficult to deal with, especially since they had no control over themselves yet, and Diana and Devon were too young for this. They were scared and confused, and I didn’t know what to do if both of them got into huge trouble and hurt themselves.

“You have to keep this a secret from Dominic, Samantha!” Lena pleaded as fear and perturbation showed on her already panicky face. I had never seen her so scared like this in my entire life that I knew her. “You can’t tell anyone about this. Especially Dominic!”

I frowned, “What are you talking about, Lena? What happened? What did you see?”

Lena was too flabbergasted to talk. Her eyes were just looking at the kids with fear while her hands were on her chest, as if she couldn’t believe what happened. Even I couldn’t believe that Devon and Diana got their wolves at that early age, but Lena—there was something she saw. Something that horrified her, and I didn’t know what it was. She wouldn’t talk. I sensed she had no intention of telling me so I took the initiative to ask because it started to scare me.

“What is it, Lena? What did you see?” I asked her while looking at her terrified face. “Tell me what happened to my kids!”

“I can’t tell you anything yet, Samantha,” Lena looked at me as if spooked by something uncanny. “Silver Crescent faces enemies Dominic hasn’t told you yet and you have to keep the children safe from them. You have to make sure no one finds out they already have their wolves. No one can know about this, Samantha.”

My frown deepened. I was so frustrated by what was happening because I had no idea why she was acting so strange. “How am I supposed to protect them when I have no idea what you are talking about, Lena? What is it that you saw!? Tell me, please!”

“Samantha, calm down,” Ethan stopped me, and that’s when I realized I had already lost my cool in front of my mother-in-law. I blinked twice and looked at Lena apologetically as I murmured, “I—I’m sorry, Lena.”

“It doesn’t matter, dear.” Lena held my hand with more profound understanding as she uttered, “Just do what I told you.”

I didn’t know if I should tell it in front of her and Ethan, but I had a feeling Lena knew about something mysterious happening to me and the kids. So I stared straight into her eyes and asked, “But Lena, there is something strange about me. Something I couldn’t explain. You—you know my parents. You know where they came from and what kind of people they were, Lena. I need you to tell me what is different about me. Why do I feel so different?”

There was sadness in her face that left me heartbroken. Evan Ethan was so confused at what was happening but decided not to interfere.

“A High Healer from the Moonstone Pack told me about this ‘Primordial’ blood thing and I have no idea what it is,” I told her with an exhausted, sorrowful voice, and Lena let go of my hand. When I raised my eyes to look at her face, she was all pale and in dread.

“Don’t dive into things you don’t know, Samantha. This is not something you want to know about.” Lena warned me as she went downstairs as fast as if she had seen a ghost.

“Lena, wait!” Where are you going!” I called for her in desperation for an answer but she slammed the door behind her and didn’t look back.

I was shocked. I didn’t know what to do, and that’s when I noticed what happened inside. The house was a giant disaster. The walls had gigantic scratches on them, and the torn paper walls hung along with the photo frames, which were misaligned, while some were on the floor with the glasses shattered and scattered everywhere.

Even the china in the kitchen didn’t survive. All were broken into pieces. ‘

“Samantha...” Ethan called for me and I felt his hand on my shoulder. “The twins are woken up. They’re looking for you.”

Tears rolled down my face. I didn’t know what kind of chaos was waiting for us, but I could feel it was just the beginning of my disastrous life here in Silver Crescent.
