Full Moon Night

1308 Words
As night fell, the glass curtain wall of Shengshi Group's headquarters reflected the neon lights of the city, like a dazzling galaxy. In the conference room, the atmosphere was solemn. The executives sat around the long table, all looking at Oliver in the main seat. He is the helmsman of the group, young and promising, calm and wise, but at this moment he looked a little anxious. "Today's meeting ends here." Oliver suddenly stood up and interrupted the financial director who was speaking. His voice was low and hurried, as if he was suppressing something. The executives looked at each other and exchanged puzzled looks. Oliver had never left the meeting in the middle of the meeting, let alone in such a hurry. "Oliver, are you okay?" Chief Operating Officer Anna asked with concern, her brows slightly frowned, noticing his abnormality. "I'm fine." Oliver forced a smile, but the cold sweat on his forehead betrayed his calmness. He grabbed the suit jacket on the back of the chair and walked quickly to the door. "You continue to discuss the remaining topics and report to me tomorrow." Before he finished speaking, his figure had disappeared outside the door. The conference room was silent, with only the executives' whispers and puzzled looks. The night sky of the city was lit up by a full moon, and the silvery moonlight sprinkled on the streets, as if covering the city with a veil. Oliver drove his black sports car, weaving through the traffic, and the speed was getting faster and faster. His breathing became rapid, his fingers tightly gripped the steering wheel, and his knuckles turned white due to the force. "Damn, time is running out..." He cursed in a low voice, his eyes swept through the rearview mirror, and his eyes in the mirror began to glow with a hint of golden light. He knew that this was a sign that the wolf nature was about to awaken. The sports car finally stopped in an abandoned industrial area on the edge of the city. It used to be a prosperous manufacturing center, but now only dilapidated factories and rusty machines are left. Oliver opened the car door and staggered towards an abandoned factory. His body began to tremble, and every nerve was clamoring in pain. The interior of the factory was dim and empty, and the moonlight sprinkled on the ground through the broken windows, forming mottled light and shadows. Oliver stumbled to the corner and huddled beside a pile of discarded mechanical parts. His breathing became heavier and heavier, and his chest rose and fell violently, as if something was about to burst out of his body. "Control it... I must control it..." He clenched his teeth, his nails dug deep into his palms, trying to distract himself with the pain. However, the power of wolf nature was far stronger than his will. His bones began to make a slight click, his muscles twisted and deformed under his skin, and the golden light in his eyes became more and more blazing. "Ah——!" A low roar burst out from his throat, painful and suppressed. His body was gradually covered with silver-gray hair, his fingers turned into sharp claws, and his facial features were distorted in the moonlight. Finally, a huge werewolf appeared in the shadow of the abandoned factory, its eyes flashing with wild light, and a low roar came from its throat. Oliver's consciousness struggled between man and wolf. He tried to maintain the last bit of reason and tried to control this powerful body. He knew that once he completely lost control, the consequences would be disastrous. The moonlight sprinkled on him through the broken roof, and the werewolf raised his head and let out a long howl, the sound echoed in the empty factory, as if announcing its existence to the world. At the same time, the executives at the headquarters of Shengshi Group were still discussing the future of the company in the conference room, completely unaware that their leader was fighting his own nature on the edge of the city. And in a corner of the city, a mysterious woman was standing on the rooftop of a high-rise building, staring at the abandoned factory in the distance. The corners of her mouth slightly raised, as if she had expected all this. "On the night of the full moon, the werewolves awaken..." She whispered softly, holding an ancient silver pendant in her hand, "The game has just begun." The wolf's roar echoed in the abandoned factory, and Oliver's consciousness struggled on the edge of man and beast. His body had been completely deformed, covered with silver-gray hair, his muscles were as hard as steel, and his claws flashed cold light in the moonlight. However, deep in his heart, the human soul was still struggling desperately. "No... can't lose control..." Oliver knew that once he was completely sunk, he would become a beast that only knew how to kill, and the city would fall into a bloody nightmare. His claws were deeply embedded in the ground, and the concrete broke like tofu under his power. Pain came from the palm of his hand, but it was far from enough. He needed a stronger stimulus to awaken human reason. Oliver's eyes fell on a dagger in the corner of the factory. It was prepared in advance to deal with such a moment. He staggered over, grabbed the dagger, and stabbed himself. "Must... control..." He gritted his teeth and stabbed the dagger fiercely into his thigh. Sharp pain instantly swept through his body, blood gushed out of the wound, dyeing his hair red. He groaned, his body trembling with pain, but the golden light in his eyes weakened a little. "Not enough..." Oliver roared in a low voice, raised the dagger again, and stabbed at his leg. The moment the dagger pierced his flesh, he let out a suppressed roar in his throat, and the pain made his consciousness clearer. Blood dripped on the ground, forming a dark red puddle. The moonlight sprinkled on him through the broken roof, and the werewolf's figure looked particularly lonely in the light and shadow. Oliver knelt on the ground, his hands on the ground, gasping for breath. His body was still full of strength, but the rage in his heart was gradually suppressed by the pain. "I am Oliver... I am not a beast..." He whispered, as if casting a spell on himself. Every breath was bloody, and every heartbeat seemed to remind him that this war with himself was far from over. Time passed by, and the moon gradually sank. Oliver's body began to change, his hair gradually faded, and his claws and fangs retracted into his body. His consciousness finally returned completely, but the pain in his body made him almost unable to move. He looked down at his wounds and smiled bitterly. Every full moon night, he had to go through such torture, and only he knew all this. "This time is stronger than any previous time, one day... I will find a solution..." He stood up with difficulty and dragged his tired body to the corner of the factory. Due to his serious injuries, Oliver staggered a few steps and fell to the ground. At this time, the moonlight shone on him, and a few seconds later, he turned into a huge wolf and lay on the ground. It no longer had the strength to stand up, and could only groan in pain. On the other side of the city, the mysterious woman was still standing on the rooftop of a tall building, playing with the silver pendant in her hand, with a meaningful smile on her lips. "Pain and struggle are just the beginning..." She said softly, turned around and disappeared in the morning light.
