Chapter 37
Enzo’s POV
I couldn’t let Andrea go to the border and face those Rogues.
She has received proper training and had been trapped in Alpha Michael’s villa for nineteen years.
She has no combat or fighting experience. So, I didn’t stop Cindy from saying those hurting words to Andrea.
Cindy was right. She wouldn’t be of any help on the battlefield. But that didn’t mean she would be a burden to me. I just couldn’t bear the slightest possibility of her getting hurt. Just like today.
I knew she hadn’t hurt her knee, but I picked her up nevertheless because even a slight bruise on her distressed me.
I’ve seen her on the verge of death, which nearly killed me. That’s why I couldn’t allow her to follow me into the battlefield. Her lips moved lightly, as though she wanted to say something more. But in the end, she just forced a bitter smile and said, “Go on then. You’ll definitely win.” I pulled her into my arms and kissed her forehead gently. “Wait for me.” Half an hour later, Kyle brought a team and met with me. He had tied his long blonde hair back, revealing his dashing eyebrows.
“Are you ready for this, partner?” I asked as I thumped Kyle’s chest.
Kyle placed a hand on my shoulder and revealed a crooked smile, “I can finally exercise my muscles a little.”
I had set up barriers at the borders, but it would only hold for a while, so we needed to speed things up. We reached the frontier upon sunset.
The entire wilderness was filled with black wolves, amounting to at least hundreds of them. After consecutive attacks, they finally managed to cross the borders. But I was sure this was the biggest step they could take anyway, and it was going to end here. With booming howling, my soldiers and I shifted to our wolf form and dashed towards them. The wind roared in my ears like a knife slicing through skin. I widen my mouth, sharp fangs pierce through a Rogue’s neck. I dumped the corpse to the side crushing another enemy simultaneously, bringing him down on the ground.
I could see the fear of death in his wide eyes,
The next second, I ended that fear for him.
The blood of my enemies stained my body, while flesh and blood drenched the battlefield,
Howls rang out continuously. The earth was a deeper scarlet than dusk.
My soldiers killed with red eyes, their faces hideous, their muscles trembling
The endless wilderness looked like a living hell. The disgusting scent of blood mingled with smoke and dust lingered in the air, War had always been cruel, and it would never be fully eliminated with the clashing of desires.
The fight lasted a total of four hours.
It started at sunset and last till the full moon was hanging high.
Kyle threw a log into the fire to make it burn up.
His face glowed under the light of the fire, the remains of killing intent still present,
“Too bad we didn’t catch their leader,” Kyle said angrily.
“What’s the rush? He’ll come.”
I picked up the flame scorched blade and aimed it at the wolf poisoned area. Then, I gritted my teeth and gouged out the rotting flesh.
Kyle closed his eyes and pulled a cigarette out of nowhere.
He wasn’t injured. There was only a little blood on his face and several layers of mud on his body.
“Speaking of which, what’s the name of that soldier who helped you today?” I asked while I wrapped a bandage around my wound.
Kyle was relaxed earlier, but he straightened up at once. “What soldier? Who was helping me? Stop talking nonsense.” I didn’t understand why he was so nervous. He was a Beta. It’s normal for someone to protect him. Why was he reacting so werid? But since he didn’t want to talk about it, I didn’t push further. I just remind him, “I think he’s injured pretty bad. His arm was broken. Bones were sticking out. Don’t forget to give him credit and promote that kid when we get back.” “His bone was visible?” Kyle suddenly grabbed my injured arm. I groaned. “Let go!”

Kyle’s gaze slid awkwardly over my wound, leaving without a word after a few seconds.
He also took the medicine I used for my wound.
Although we had temporarily chased the Rogues off, it wasn’t time to leave yet. I could still sriell therti
Usually, in battle, I would find a higher position to rest so that I would feel any disturbance in advance
The same went for tonight.
However, just as I was about to climb up on the tree, I suddenly caught sight of a silver wolf flashing past me.
Was that… Cindy?
It was already so late. Where was she going?
I followed behind her as I held my breath not to alert her.
Seeing that she was about to step over the barrier at the border I had just built, I stopped her.
Cindy turned sharply, looking flustered. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
“Alpha?!” She exclaimed in surprise. There was also fear in her tone.
As far as I recall, Cindy always wanted to come up and chat with me whenever she saw me. She had never been this nervous when she saw me. Considering how she had slacked during the battle today, I had to wonder if she was heading to tip those Rogues off. I had just laid down our attack plan with my soldiers. She had no reason to leave at this time. I narrowed my eyes and asked coldly, “Where are you going?”
