Chapter 44: Chapter 44

Greg arrived in Sophia's mind and he soon found her wolf above her unconscious body. He sighed, realizing by the angry look of the wolf that things hadn't been very tactful between the two and that things had gone badly wrong.

" Good morning…"

The wolf turned to the voice before wagging its tail in joy.

Greg was in his lycanthrope form and Sophia's wolf immediately recognized him going to play with him.

" You came? I'm so happy to see you again"

The wolf bounded around Greg jumping in joy as Greg finally calmed her down.

" What happened ?"

The wolf stopped before looking at Sophia's body with disdain.

"She's an egocentric person, I can't get along with her. I refuse that we are one..."

"So you plan to stay in your lycanthrope form all your life?"

The wolf lowered his face as he sighed.

"I don't like her aspirations... While laudable, they just don't fit my path"

Greg wanted to know what could have been the cause of their misunderstanding but it was also something that had to be kept secret. What can pass between two similar entities must remain secret and be shared only by the principals concerned.

" I imagine that you must have felt put off by her intentions but also try to put yourself in her place and I'm sure that she will also want to make efforts for you. This world, all this is still so foreign to her... Please, I can't live without both of you, it's you two that I need so will you reconsider ?"

Greg passed his head over the wolf, rubbing them together as the latter looked one last time at the body lying on the ground.

"I guess I can do that for you...but you'll have to go then..."

Greg nodded before coming out of Sophia's mind under Elsa's worried gaze.

"SO?"

"Everything will be fine now... The proof."

Indeed, Sophia's pheromones had stopped destroying everything around her and their intensity in the air had diminished exponentially.

Elsa smiled before speaking.

"Indeed, you are her soulmate…"

On Sophia's side.

I had just opened my eyes as my head hurt like hell. I blinked several times to adjust to my surroundings realizing that I was still in that dark place somewhere in my mind and sighed that my argument with my wolf still hadn't been settled.

I pouted, I wasn't asking the moon, just for my wolf to be my ally. I can't believe he can't understand me when the memory of my wounded mother lying in her blood still hovers in my mind. And what about the fact that her death was so unjust and cruel at the hands of a capricious man? I certainly didn't know my father, but the fact that he was killed by the same man is something I can't accept. I just want revenge... Is it something wrong?

I gritted my teeth, almost biting my lip until it bled, all the while, my wolf was watching me and he ended up sighing so hard I looked at him.

" What? I can't believe that.."

"Shut up and let me talk, will you? I still don't agree with devoting my life to revenge because that hasn't always been the best way and I don't think your mother would have wanted that for you. If she sent you here to Capital City, it was to find your family so that you were not alone and not to pursue a person as dangerous as the one who killed your parents. In short, what I want to say is that I want a future filled with joy and happiness by his side... Alongside, our Alpha. You certainly don't have the same feelings for him as I do, but I know that deep down you love him too."

" Of course I love him. But I just can't forget what the other bastard did to my parents anyway."

"I also imagine that you want to use Elsa and whatever else you can find to get closer to that Soul Moon Alpha you hate so much. But if it's true that Elsa is a Soul Moon, what if our Alpha too. Did it ever occur to you that this one is also a Soul Moon member? And if you came across this kind of surprise...Sophia, I want a clear answer here and now. Would you be able to repel our alpha if it happens to be Soul Moon, and this is for your Revenge? Or would you be able to give it up for a future with him?"

I was glued to the spot, I thought about it on the fly without ever seriously looking into it, but what my wolf said is true. Would I be able to give up my revenge for love? Or even love cannot heal the hate in my heart. And if my alpha is a Soul Moon member, would I be able to harm him just to get my way?

I chewed on my bottom lip tasting the metallic taste of my blood as I was deep in thought. I felt my wolf come and stand beside me but I didn't look up.

" I don't know... I don't know what I will do in these eventualities... Even before I discovered that I had an alpha, I already had this objective in mind but when I met him, I developed a deep affection for him which puts me in a troubled and complex situation. I'm lost...I don't want to imagine our alpha as an enemy but yet now that you mention it...I feel so ambiguous about it...What to do? Please help me."

My wolf sighed before speaking.

"I just want us to be happy...all happy and I know revenge will only bring pain. But if the opportunity arises then I will help you but in return... Let's make our alpha happy... That's my only condition. No matter what you choose, our alpha should never suffer. You know what will happen if you break that promise, don't you?"

I nodded. There's no way I can break that promise. I love my alpha, and my revenge, I'm sure it will never concern him. Even though he's a member of Soul Moon, he's not their obnoxious Alpha and I don't think he has anything to do with my parents' killers. Not all Soul Moon members are bad.
