Warrior (Shewolf)
Chapter 42: I Like Someone Else

Gyria fell asleep during the trip. His body was too sick and hard to move. Derek takes Gyria back to Dwaine's alpha pack. Alpha Dwaine orders to return to the pack. No traveling until completely healed.

Gyria had been lying weak for a week. Pack's doctor gave him sedatives and pain relievers. Although werewolves can heal themselves but it takes a long process and Dwaine's alpha pack does not cooperate with witches but Dwaine's alpha has a reliable doctor by his side.

Gyria opened her eyes slowly. The wind that entered the room through the open window hit her soft cheeks. Gyria sat down slowly. His body was still in pain but his wound was already healing. Gyria sat down and looked at her room. He knows this room. Small rectangular room. There was a large bed and a wardrobe at the end of the room. This is his room in Dwaine's alpha pack. Gyria remembers everything that happened, including the kiss. Gyria smiled faintly in light of the incident. The intense kiss and warm embrace he received from his mate, Derek. All this time he held back any desire to be with her, looking for trouble with her. He felt he could not have it because of their status and Gyria who was from Crysort. He always pretended not to be interested in her. But now it's different. At least that's what Gyria thinks.

A quick footstep led to his room. His sister, Lily, ran towards him.

"Sister woke up too. Why did he sleep so long?" ask Lily. Lily has her father's brown hair while Gyria has her mother's red hair.

"Are you waiting for me?" gyria asked as she stroked the hair of her only sister.

"Hmmm..."

Gyria smiled then tightened her embrace.

"Then.. Where's mommy? Are you guys all right?" ask Gyria. Lily let go of her embrace.

"Mom was in the kitchen and we were fine. I've started school. Even though I don't like my school." Lily lowered her head. Gyria looked at Lily.

"Why? Is it uncomfortable?"

Lily nodded. "I don't like them. I prefer to study with my mom. Do I have to go to school?"

"They? Who?"

"The kids go to school there. He mocked me about me not having a father and my poor appearance. Sis, do I really have to go to school?"

Gyria was silent for a moment. "Yes, I have to."

"But I can study at home with my mom. I even got perfect grades in every subject while in school. Everything my mother taught me was the same. I understand you better than those teachers."

"But Lily's school isn't just about learning lessons. But how do we adjust to the environment, with our friends. They are like that because they don't know you. But when they get to know you well, I'm sure they'll be happy to have a friend like you."

Lily looked at her brother with a frown on her forehead.

"Aren't you sure about that?"

Gyria pinched slowly on Lily's cheek. "of course. Don't you play outside? What are you doing here?"

"Mom told me to spell PR." Lily walked towards the table in the room.

"Then sister will help mom in the kitchen." Gyria uncovers her blanket and gets off the bed.

"Isn't my sister still sick?" lily asked while looking at her sister.

"Sister is fine. Do it right."

"Yes, yeah..."

Gyria smiled then exited her room and headed for the kitchen. In the kitchen he saw more workers than usual. Gyria searches for her mother whom she does not find in the kitchen. He asked some people in the kitchen, they said his mother was delivering food at the training ground. Gyria followed her mother to the training ground. To get there he had to pass through the backyard that there is a garden there. There is a large fountain in the middle of the park. Gyria wanted to tell her mother about her mate, that she had found her mate. Because her mother said if she found her mate, she'd be free of Chloe's luna. He has the right to choose to be a member of the Crysort pack or follow the mate. Luna Chloe won't have a reason to get sick again or go after her family.

Gyria ran over the big fountain. The fountain was tall and very indag. But the steps stopped. He looked at the fountain. There Derek was standing. Gyria smiled knot. Slowly his feet approached Derek. As he got closer, his steps came to a halt, his smile gone. He saw Derek kissing a woman there. They kiss like there is no tomorrow. Even Derek's hands started to creep into the woman's chest. At that instant Gyria's body froze on the spot. He thought Derek would forget his fiancee but he was wrong. He was wrong for hoping. He watched all of that for a moment then retreated back slowly and turned around. He walked away. After some distance, he ran with all his strength with tears beginning to fall.

Allana continued to look back, towards Renald as her feet stepped away from Renald's pack. Allana decided to leave. Even though he felt Arthur was not his mate, but everyone would not believe him. He has no proof and could have had his feelings delayed due to his flurry of escape lately. Maybe because he doesn't know Arthur at all. He also did not want any disputes between packs just because of him.

"Are you okay Al?" ask Erica. Allana nodded.

They entered the parked car some distance from Renald's house. Before entering the car once again he turned to Renald. The car was speeding out of the Zykolt pack.

"Are you sure you're out of Zykolt? I think Zykolt is safer." asked Erica after they arrived and were in the room that had been prepared for Allana. Allana looked at Erica confused.

"That's right All, as a mate it's a natural thing. Saved you. But I still think Zykolt is a safe place. Especially if it's from the Crysort pack. Because the pack has witches."

Allana sighed then walked towards the window. He looked at some people walking outside. Room on the second floor. The house was not like Renald's house which was shaped like a royal castle. Arthur's house is like the home of most rich people. Elegant, large, and has expensive furniture.

"Tell me All." Erica was already standing next to Allana. "Do you really have no feelings for Arthur?"

"Come on Er, I don't know."

"You don't know?"

"Hm... Maybe it was because I didn't know him well, or maybe I was too busy so I never thought about my feelings. I don't know I don't know. But I really didn't have any taste when I saw it." Allana looked at Arthur who was talking to some middle-aged men. "But strangely enough, I like other people."

"Other people? Who?" ask Erica. He was quite surprised by Allana's statement. Erica was silent for a moment, seemingly thinking then she flinched. "RENALD?"

Allana did not answer. He was still staring at Arthur from his bedroom window. Why don't I like you?

...***...

"Luna.." one middle-aged woman looked down respectfully at Luna Chole. Luna still closed her eyes and concentrated.

"Luna's.. Sorry but it's important."

Luna Chloe opened her eyes, revealing her red eyeballs. He was very offended to see the lack of discipline of his pack members that disturbed him.

"I brought word, luna" said the woman again. Luna Chloe sighed harshly.

"If it doesn't matter, I'll kill you."

"Allana's gone from Zykolt's pack."

Luna Chloe was surprised. "What did you say?"

"Allana left Zykort's pack."

"Then where is he?!"

"We suspect to pack Foykolt luna."

"Foykolt? But why?"

"We heard that the new alpha of the Foykolt pack is the mate of Allana."

Luna Chloe was surprised. He raised one eyebrow.

"Mate?"

"Yes luna. The alpha of Zykolt and the alpha of Foykolt were in conflict. Alpha pack Foykolt picked up Allana directly to Zykolt."

"That's fascinating. Then we don't have to bother."

"True luna." said Melissa.

"Prepare the troops" luna Chloe told Melissa. Melissa looked down respectfully and left the room. "Rosmary, do you know what to do?" ask luna Chloe to one of the witches.

Rosmary smiled. "Of course."

"We're going on a hunt." luna Chloe laughed.
