"Who murdered my father?!" Her head continues spinning with the question. She wonders to herself whether she was simply a young and fragile kid until she reached eighteen. Asena Barlowe is a young woman with special abilities that she has acquired as a result of her pride, hatred, and desire for vengeance. On the exterior, she has a fighter's attitude, but on the inside, the actual Asena is hiding–Akila Cryses, the daughter of the assassinated Alpha. Will she continue to conceal her actual identity from the people who keep on assisting her, particularly those who love her, in order to find out who murdered her father and make them pay for what they did because of the throne that they had before? Would she be able to exact the vengeance she so desperately desires from her youth up until then? "I'll make you all pay! From the first to the last generation of your lineage! I'm not going to let any of you breathe till I'm dead!" What if she discovered that the person who murdered her father is linked to the guy who would adore her? "Just kill me. This is the only way for you to break free from your awful history." Which option will she choose? A second shot at love or a chance for vengeance?
"Akila! Someone shot your Father!"
I didn't know what to do when I heard those things while I was hiding in the tribe's clan. I'm just staring blankly at the wolf that has always been with us.
"W-what are you saying?" It starts with my eyes, which are just holding back my tears and all the feelings that might come out because of the sudden news.
I stand up, but I can't move my feet from where they are. Right now, the only things I feel are fear and discomfort. When she saved me while she was crying, I almost slipped and fell again.
"What are you saying, Dixon? Can't you hear yourself?!" I yelled at her, and now I can't even understand what she told me.
"I'm so sorry, Akila! They can't stand up for the King. He wants to save the whole tribe!" she muttered as she gasped for air and cried as loudly as I do when I cry.
Am I supposed to have these kinds of feelings when I'm so young?
I can't wait to get out of this place and win the fight we're having with the other tribes. They can't say anything else because they are too jealous of what my father did for our colony.
Because of this, they want him out of the picture.
I don't know how much I will cry right now as Dixon, a slave of the crown, stops me from getting out of this clan room where I am being held captive.
"Don't stop me, Dixon! I want to know how my father is doing this time." When one of the fighter wolves came inside, I looked at him, and that's when I started trying to get out of there.
"Faolan?" I asked him.
He just looked at me with a worried look on his face. He kept looking at me even though there was a lot of blood on his face.
A look that I had been able to remember ever since. In fact, he is the one fighting outside of this clan chamber because he was worried about how I was doing and wanted to see what was going on. I looked into his eyes while holding his bloody hand and pretending to talk to him discreetly.
"Dixon, keep an eye on the princess no matter what! Don't let her leave this room, no matter what!" When he said those words, I lost any remaining patience I had.
Dixon has his hands on my wrists, but I break free and go face Faolan. "I thought you were a friend of mine. I thought we had reached a secret agreement on something, Faolan!" When I said those things, I did so in a very angry way.
The way I said those words still shows how much pain I am in right now.
"I don't want you to feel any pain, Akila. I promised your parents that I would always look out for you and make sure you were safe. Please just listen to what I have to say this one time. You already know how much I want to look out for you."
He spoke to me in a soothing voice and looked right into my eyes as he said, "I don't want you to get hurt."
Even though we are still in our teens, I can see how much we have grown and changed each day. Because of where we are in life, everyone here has accepted their situation and is thinking more broadly than they would have at that age. I could tell by how he talked to me that he loved me, but that doesn't mean I have to agree with what he said. I understand where all of this is coming from but I am willing to give up my life for this group of people.
"I just want to find out where my dad is!" I yelled these things at Faolan, who didn't seem to care. His blood was flowing down in his head, and he was sweating because of the constant fighting between the tribes, but he just looked at me with a calm face.
"What makes you think that you'll make it back here alive even if I let you out of this room?" He asked me why I was crying as I wiped away the tear that had just fallen down my cheek. I kept looking at him as I talked.
"Of course! I will keep on living!"
"No!" he yelled toward me.
We've been together for a long time, but this is the first time he's been impatient with me while we're fighting. I chose not to say anything. I don't know what made him lose his cool.
Did we not win the battle?
"Every member of your tribe has been killed or seriously hurt, and some of them are still missing! Do you really think that getting out of this room will help you in any way?!" He started, and as soon as he did, he wiped the blood out of his eyes.
Even though he looks tired, my stubborn spirit doesn't want to hear what he has to say. Even though I don't agree with how he sees the situation, I won't say anything. He left the room as I sat down on the chair. I shut my eyes and twisted my hands into a knot.
I wish I could turn into Luna right now, but my father told me not to. I'm scared not only of the battle but also of what it might mean for my father and the rest of my tribe. Dixon was looking at me with worry in his eyes, and I could only give him a quick glance as tears slowly fell to the ground. Part of me still wants to get out of this body, even though I'm proud of it. I opened the clan's door right away, which scared Dixon.
"Akila!" Strong advice.
"Stop now!"
"I don't want us to get into any trouble!" she yelled at me.
Before I left the clan's room, I took one last look at her. The hardest thing about this whole thing is just being here.
"I'll fight to defend my people!" As I left the tribal chamber and made my statement, I saw two of our people lying on the ground. Their wounds were hurting, and the others, who had passed out from shock, could hear their wild snarls of pain.
At first, I didn't know what to do, but I forced myself to get over my fear and go look for my father.
"Akila! Let's go back!" When I heard Dixon's voice, I ran away from where I was.
My goal right now is to keep looking for my father. I can see a group of werewolves who are ready to fight for each other. I ran away because I was afraid for my life, and I didn't bother to look back.
The fact that I made that muttering sound to myself just made me feel worse. As soon as I got a whiff of my dad, I ran away.
I yelled "Father!" at him, but he didn't hear me because he was too busy fighting, even though he was hurt.
Dixon, who had just been shot in the head with an arrow, was still looking at me as I was about to run by.
"Dixon!" I can't move because everything in my head is so clear.
"D-Dixon?!" To say it again, I said she said her last words.
When she told me to "Run!" I did. I turned around to look in the back.
"Akila!!!"
As Faolan's voice got farther away, the world started to get darker.
