Four Headaches

Chapter 2

The Keres Packhouse was brimming with wolves, some already out the door as they chattered about school and the newcomer who has yet to make their introduction to the pack. Gossip travels faster and farther than light, an Omega caught a strange scent near and almost immediately asked about it to others. It spread like wildfire.

Raze almost felt pity when she punched the wolf she encountered square in the jaw. The stranger was about to live a long life, might as well sprinkle a life lesson into it.

The brunette silently cackled to herself as she silently slid past the wolves cleaning and meandering about.

A packhouse, meant to hold the ranked weres of the pack. She yawns, punching the air as she let out a screech. It was probably a bad idea.

Al was surprised at the dark figure entering the dining hall. Who are they?? And—

"Why all black?" He unconsciously asked.

"Why not?" Their tone was light as a smile — more like a grin — as if the question was a joke.

Her appearance becoming more and more visible as she approached the Omega, he feels chills and uncomfortable. This wasn't just a mere outsider.

"Is there something wrong, dear?"

He gulps, "O-Of course not. Is there s-something you need?"

The person was androgynous. Al couldn't tell if they were a girl or a boy, their voice was feminine but the way they chuckle, — it was similar to his gruff Father — deep and breathy.

The mystery in front of him laughed softly, "Apologies for intruding, I believe that an introduction is due." They bowed their head slightly, right hand on their chest. "I am Raze. I stumbled into your house, I got lost on my way to school. Do you mind assisting me, dear?"

The way they looked– no, stared. It was like a trance that before Al could even think, he already agreed — much to Raze's delight.

Al could not find it in himself to look away as the eyes of the brunette beside him gleamed, they oozed the intent. Of what? He doesn't know, but it makes him a bit scared of Raze. Or Razial, but she waved it off. 'Only Mother calls me that,' she told him as they drove to her destination. 'It makes me feel like I'm in a courtroom.'

Many thoughts set off the alarm bells in his head but he could only drive the creepy brunette.

He gripped the steering wheel, was he really afraid of a stranger? He stole a glance and he saw them, brandishing a balisong. What the f**k.

The Beta could only stare straight after seeing the knife. Strangely enough, he felt a bit at ease when her weapon was in her hands.

Just who the hell is this bastard??
