’Change of plan, Elektra’. I mind - linked her before I voiced out using a low voice, "Anders will be going to the human city tomorrow with us. I can make the pain-relief pills and health-booster pills that he will drink when I arrive in the human city".
’What about the blood transfusion, Clara? Have you forgotten about that? What if you can not find any werewolf blood in the human hospital that matches Anders’ blood?’. She asked .
’Easy, Elektra. Tomorrow, I will take a sample of Anders’ blood and go to the hospital where Doctor Rebecca is working. After I find a perfect match for him using the blood sample, I will simply buy the blood. I can initiate the blood transfusion after we arrive in Diamond-heart City’. I replied to her through our mind - link with absolute confidence.
I heard Elektra sigh and groan loudly.
I wanted to ask her what was wrong, but she said to , ’I don’t an to discourage you, but Clara, are we supposed to watch over Anders 24/7 from now on? What about when we have to bathe and do other important stuff? Are we still going to keep him by our side and watch over him? That is seriously very inconvenient’.
I thought about what Elektra said and knew that she had a valid point.
But a faint smile appeared on my face when I rembered soone whom I had forgotten about. The sa person who would do anything for when I was Clara Hensley.
’I have already got that covered, Elektra. My parents aren’t the only people we will et after arriving in Diamond-heart City. We are going to et an annoying jerk. He is going to help make a special bracelet for and Anders’. I mind - linked Elektra, before I relaxed my head on the sofa and shut my eyes.
Tonight, I planned to stay in this guest room with Anders.
Thinking about how I have not taken my night bath made hiss. Fortunately, the royal clothes I was still wearing were not that bad or uncomfortable.
’An annoying jerk? Who is he, Clara? Tell about him quickly. That part of your mory did not co to ’.
’Be patient, Elektra. Sooner or later, you will see him yourself and understand why he is an annoying jerk’. I replied to her and suddenly smiled with my eyes still shut.
The smile was a genuine smile. If rembering him could make smile like this, I should have done that since.
It took a while before I actually slept off, because I had been busy thinking about black shadow.
From what I understand, he is a demon.
And he wants to destroy the world and beco its ruler, together with his so-called wife, whom he said he would resurrect.
I don’t even know how to react to what I discovered today. Today, I discovered that demons are real, and that they are up here with us, instead of being in the underworld.
How would the entire world react to this heart-wrenching discovery?
Most especially, how would they react if I told them that the wild beasts that appeared in the forests thousands of years ago and killed so of the natural animals there, aren’t truly wild beasts, but they are pets from the underworld?
How would they react if I told them that the wild beasts aren’t only pets of the underworld, but are probably also demons?
If I told them that, I don’t think they would be able to endure the news like .
I am even surprised.
Was it because many strange things had been happening to , like suddenly dying and becoming a werewolf, only to find out that I am the chosen child and that the moon goddess is my mother? Is that the main reason why I am not that afraid after discovering that demons are real and that they are living and breathing the sa air as us?
But wait a minute. I am the chosen child of light and destruction. Why am I the child of destruction when I feel that it is black shadow who will destroy the world?
In my opinion and honest point of view, I should have only been the child of light, while black shadow should have been the child of destruction. That should have made a lot of sense in that way.

The next day,
6:37am
My eyes imdiately opened when I sensed the presence of soone standing in front of .
"Anders, since when did you wake up? Have you been standing here and staring at ?".
"I- I just woke up, alpha Anastasia. I was surprised to see you in the room". He replied to while scratching the back of his head.
He must have found it awkward to see , because last night, he cried like a baby in front of .
After stretching my neck, I stood up from the single seater sofa. My body was sore all over, especially my upper body. Although I was soundly asleep on the sofa, my body told otherwise.
"Anders, Benjamin is dead". I said to him with a straight look on my face.
Upon hearing the news, Anders’ eyes widened. "Tha- thank you, alpha Anastasia". Tears escaped from his eyes as he bowed at and greeted .
I stood still without saying anything. It was after Anders lifted his head that I said, "I wasn’t the one who killed Benjamin. He was already dead when I arrived at his mansion".
There was a puzzled look on Anders’ face as I told him that. I ignored the look on his face and added, "When I feel you are ready, I will tell you what happened. For now, enter the bathroom and bathe. I will have my maid servants bring you new clothes. Until then, don’t you dare run off".
I turned and left the guest room after saying that to him.
