Chapter 1
FAMILY MASSACRE
ZARYA'S POV
We were werewolves that turned our back to the Elemental Kingdom to live peacefully in the city. We never regret signing the paper and choosing to be ordinary people until...
"Hey, let's go buy popcorn!" My fourteen-year-old brother Zaiden was holding the wallet of our mother.
"Don't get too much, Zay, the money needs to last for a week!" Mom shouted from the kitchen, she was washing the dishes.
I lay on the couch while grasping my phone, I was scrolling on social media, stalking my crush, and eventually threw the phone on the center table.
The lovely boy from the school has a girlfriend!
I am eighteen years old, taking my college degree, and burning my eyebrow at the start of the school year. That was the most difficult part of the life of a teenager. We were living in the city for about three years now.
At times, I was missing the place where I used to live, the Elemental Kingdom. My mom and dad were fighters, Betas. They were a great warrior and servant of King Oswald. However, even though I wanted to be like them, they decided to move to the humans' place. They told us the essence of having a hushed environment, normally interacting with human beings rather than gamble our lives day by day and never knew if we could survive the battle, or we found ourselves lying on the soil while gasping for air due to the blood loss or wounds.
"Buy me a bar of chocolate! I'm heartbroken! Pick up the pieces of my heart on the floor!" I stomped my feet on the corner of the couch, super irritable. I acted as if I was crying.
"Duh!" Zay waved his hand with a dollar on his hand. "You just saw him yesterday and yet you're devastated? How flirt you are!" He was chuckling, teasing me with his playful grin.
I kicked him with control. Perhaps, he might report me to Mom and Dad. He was a crying baby. The last time I punched him in the face, he cried and acted as if I had killed him to death. We were just playing at that time. He was just a good actor. Then, when Mom and Dad were scolding me, he brought out his tongue, annoyed me so freaking badly.
"Zaiden Wixx, for your information. The heart knows where it beats! You're envying me because I'm the hottest woman on our Campus. How about you? No one loves you! I pity you!" I irritated him back. I stood up while swaying my hips. I walked upstairs, looking at my nails. I was thinking of putting a red stain on it.
By the way, I don't care if the lovely boy has a lover. I can find another target.
In my third step on the stairs, I looked back at Zay. He was operating my phone. That was why I hurried towards him as if I had wings I would fly just to get back my phone.
"Hey, you, Little Boy! You're invading my privacy!"
He chuckled, shook his head. OMG! He read my messages!
"Oh, Baby, where can I see you? Did you eat? Eat me." He laughed so hard, he even touched his belly while rolling on the map. "I'll tell Dad!" He ran quickly, towards the stair, but I suddenly grabbed his clothes on the back.
"I'll give you ten dollars, just don't!" I rubbed my palm, and pleaded with him while my eyes were rolling.
