Episode 14

Gilda (Council): How did we not know about this, my Alpha...?

Izack: Gilda, this council honestly only still exists because of you and Bethe...

You two are the only ones who still come to me when something needs to be dealt with regarding the pack...

I'm almost certain that all these others knew what happened...

Genaro: It's absurd to accuse us like that... You can't do this!

Izack: Shut up... The others, I'm assuming, knew. As for you, I can affirm it...

You were with Simas that day... The next day you came to impose marriage with Zuria on me, claiming she was the "pure" wolf, worthy of being Luna...

I don't care if she's "pure" or not; either way, there would be no sexual act between the two of us...

""The council is formed by 5 people... the elders of the pack... Genaro, Simas, Onofre, Gilda, and Bethe. The two women are the most competent... Even though they are already over 4,000 years old, they don't run away with their tails between their legs when there's an attack...

"The others, every time I went to shut down a lab," always said it was a waste of time... that I shouldn't get involved in such things, because it would draw attention to our pack...

...

Bethe: Alpha Izack... Luna ROSALIA... Gilda and I no longer wish to work with these unscrupulous men... they always try to leave us out of decisions... We had already thought about talking to you... But with what is happening, we can't delay any longer...

Rosalia: Everyone, let's not prolong this meeting... I, as your Luna and mother of the Alpha... say that from now on, there will be no more councils in our pack... For anything you need, come to me or Izack... Also, the engagement with Beta Zuria is off...

Orders coming from her do not need to be obeyed, understood?...

And Zuria, if I find out that you are threatening my people, I myself will rip your head off...

Zuria: But I will be Luna...

Rosalia: You don't understand, girl... There will be no marriage between you and my son...

Now get out of here, all of you...

"Zuria left with her family fuming with hatred. She couldn't believe the old Luna broke her engagement with Izack...

Zuria: I will not accept this, Mother!

Flavia: You keep quiet... One day you will get to be the Luna...

...

Izack: Well, my people... Officially, we no longer have councils with those men who were here... Beth and Gilda are always welcome, and I very much appreciate your points of view...

Zuria is not, and never was, accepted by me as a bride...

I am hopeful that I will recover my wolf and find my true Luna...

People: Long live Alpha Izack... Long live Luna ROSALIA!

...Long live...

...

With that, everyone left, leaving me and my mother...

Rosalia: Who is that girl?

Izack: What girl?

Rosalia: My son, don't play dumb... I couldn't see her face clearly, but you calmed down as soon as your eyes met hers...

Izack: Mother... It's nothing like that... She's Emma, the girl I brought from the lab.

Rosalia: The one who was possibly with your father?

Izack: Yes... Didn't you see her when I brought her...?

Rosalia: No, my love... At the time, I was helping Bethe with a vampire who was seriously injured and debilitated...

I was just coming to see her when I came across Genaro and the others on the way...

Izack: Well, let's go then... I'll introduce you to her...

...

After Izack left, I was thinking about him like I had never thought about anyone else...

At no point did he show any disgust for me... I loved drinking his blood, his warm palm touching my face...

I could swear that before seeing my memories, his hands gently caressed my face...

I felt something stir inside me...

Deduced it was hunger... lol

...

A while after he left... I felt a very negative energy coming from outside...

When I approached the window, I saw a crowd of people in the hospital courtyard...

Izack was in the center, hanging an older man... His face was dark with rage, as were his red eyes...

It was strange how, from that distance, I could see every expression on his face...

When my gaze met his... It was as if the world stood still for a few moments...

My smile came instantly... He looked at me, and his eyes returned to their normal color...

I moved away with my heart racing... Not even with Daniel, whom I thought I felt something for, had this ever happened...

I sat on the bed with an immense sadness over my broken heart...

Who in their right mind would look at someone as ugly as me...? Izack must just pity me, that's all...

Tears rolled down my eyes, and I only noticed when I saw him kneeling in front of me, wiping my face...
