Everyone stares at me as I walk by. The brown bag I'm carrying dripping with a red liquid. " Is that her, The alpha of Darkness. " I groan internally when I hear that name. " Alpha of Darkness. " Such a stupid name. Just because I mainly use dark magic runes. Annoying. Maybe its because of the mask. All assassins are required to wear them to hide our faces. Not only do they hide our faces, they can change them. They also mask our scent so they can't follow that. I don't really care if they see my face, I don't really have anything or anyone important. I like it that way. I can't disappoint or be disappointed, it simple. I walk to the end of a long hallway and knock on the door. " Who is there. " Head of the order Micheal says. " Lilith. " " Oh, come in please. " I walk into to the room and close the door. Micheal head of the order is in his chair behind his desk. Glenda the head of the torture department is beside him helping with papers. " Did you bring them. " She says trying to hide her excitement. I nod and hold up the bag. She looks at me annoyed. " I gave you container to put them in. " I shrug. " They broke during the fight. " She groans annoyed and walks over. She rips the bag out of my hand and looks inside. " Your lucky they aren't damaged. " She turns to Micheal. " I'll be right back. " He nods and she leaves. He sits up straight in his desk. " You made it at the right time. I just finished looking at applicants. " I tilt my head. She sighs. " Still not much for talking. Why don't you take off your mask and change. I need to talk to about something. " I nod and head for the door and leave. Before I close the door she says loudly. " Please be back in about 10 minutes please. " I look at him and nod, then close the door. I head in the opposite direction I came in and walk to the living quarters. I quickly reach my room and jump in the shower. Every time I walk through the main hall everyone stares at me. I usually think its because of who I am, but then I take a shower and all the blood washes off. Pretty sure that's why they stare. " Not only that. You are a legend, the first werewolf to because a part of the orders strongest warriors. " Ethu says in my head. " They probably stare for lots of reason honestly. " " Covered in blood, carrying a bag that's dripping red liquid, wearing a creepy monster mask, a werewolf, you've been with the order for 5 years, and have the highest kill count and you beat the old record. " I sigh. " Yeah. Not like I had any other choice. " * Flashback * Year 1 at academy. I'm laying on the ground after Azriel swiped my feet with a staff. " Stand up! " He shouts. My whole body is in pain. I have slashes and bruises allover my body. " I said stand up! " I struggle to stand up and use a staff to hold myself up. " Pathetic. The daughter of The Alpha king. " He shakes his head. " I was expecting something more. Hmm. Like your brother Mathew. " I glare at him and charge at him. I swing but he easily blocks and and knocks the staff out of my hands. He hits me in the stomach and hold my stomach and bend over. He hits me again but over my head and I black out. * End of flashback * I'm leaning against the bookshelf in Micheal's office. Hes sitting in his chair looking nervous. Glenda is staring at him annoyed waiting for him to speak. We are in complete silence. Glenda sigh. " Whatever. I'm gonna talk to her, then you can talk after. " She looks at me. " The plants that you brought, we were able to get what we needed. I wasn't actually expecting you to actually go and collect it. " I shrug. " Wolves are the only ones that can find it. " " Well. " She rubs her hands together. " We got what we needed out of him. Cold azolla, very rare and deadly. " She smirks. " Specially kitsune's. Now Micheal stop acting like a scared puppy. " He sighs and leans forward. " Okay. We have gotten word about the council in Aidrus, is planning something. They have been acting secretly and have been seen in our region. We think that they are looking for a certain set of relics. " " Okay. What do I have to do with it. " He takes a deep breath. " Most of the relics are in werewolf territory. " I think he can feel the intensity in the room grow. " Also...... You are going to search for them. Werewolves have a unique sensing ability, vampires can't compare to it. I will also be sending other out. " " Okay. The more there are searching, the faster we will get the relics. " " That's also another thing. I looked at applicants for people to make a team, you will travel around and find these relics. " " What. " " Hmm. " " You made it sound like I will be working with them. " He looks nervous. " Yes. You will be leading the team. " " What! " He puts his hands up in surrender. " It's not up to me, its an order from the council. We have to be secretive about this, they can't now we are doing the same as them. " " I don't work with other people. " " I know, but we don't have a choice. I picked the best and brightest. " " How many. " " 5. They are the best in their fields. " " One of them is my protege, and he has done really well. " Glenda chimes in. " Is he anything like you. " She glares at me. " Enough you two. " He looks at his watch. " They should be he- " He gets cut off by a knock at his door. " Speak of the devils. Come in. " The door opens and five people come in.
