White wolf
Madeline could be seen sitting on the couch, with Elena sitting opposite her. “I want you to get me all the information about her. Where she came from? Her family. Everything. Do you understand me?” She said to the guy standing before her.
“Yes ma’am. I will get it ready before the week ends.” The girl replied.
“No. I want it in the next two days,” Madeline retorted.
“Yes, ma’am.” The guy said, bowing his head before walking out of the room.
“What are you planning, great Luna?” Elena asked, looking at the woman who was resting her back on the couch with her eyes closed.
“If she tries to act smart with me, her family will be the ones to suffer for it. At least she won’t choose her family to die, all because of the riches she wants to swindle from my son.” Madeline said, before opening her eyes. She took a sip of the coffee in her hand.
“You did the right thing, Luna. That girl needs to stay away from him soon.” Elena said.
“I’m always doing the right thing.”

It was finally Saturday. Ellie couldn’t sleep well the night before. She kept thinking of how to talk with Maya in the house without Alex knowing. She thought that Alex might not go out, but she was surprised when she woke up in the morning and did not see Alex in the house.
“Did he go out to jog?” She asked herself. She went out of the house and saw that his car was not where he always parked it. She went back inside to ask the butler, who was already setting the table. And the man told her that Alex had left the house early in the morning.
“It’s good; he’s not around.” She smiled to herself before going back upstairs to take her phone. She called Maya to start coming before eating her breakfast.
Ellie waited for about two hours, but she did not say Maya. She was starting to get worried that Alex might come back home anytime since it was the weekend. She took her phone to call Maya again, but before she could dial the number, the door of the living room opened, and Maya walked in.
“Hey! I’ve been waiting for you,” Ellie said. She stood up and walked to meet her.
“I’m sorry. It was my mother. She can be a pain in the neck sometimes,” Maya said before taking a seat. Hearing her talk about her mother even got her more scared and eager to solve her problem.
“I called you because of what happened the last time.”
Maya smiled. “I know that could be the only reason you called. Is my brother at home?” She whispered.This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .
“No,” Ellie replied. “Do you think it might have gone? I mean. My eyes have not changed since that time, so maybe it has gone.”
“I don’t think it’s something that goes and comes on its own, Ellie. Something must be triggering it.” Maya said.
Ellie sighed before asking. So you mean that it’s still there, but it only happened because of something?”
“Yes,” Maya replied. That day. Your eyes changed when that witch’s daughter tried to attack you. That same day, too. Your eyes changed when Agnes tried to attack you. Maya said with a frown.
She kept quiet and went into thought for a few seconds before snapping her fingers. “Danger! It happens when you’re in danger.” She looked up at the girl opposite her and said,.
Danger. Ellie said again. Now she was thinking about it. It happened when those witches tried to attack her. “But why did it change when I was in the bathroom?” She asked.
“Did it change when you were alone?”
Yes.
Maya sighed before standing up. “There’s only one way to find out.”
“Where are you going?” She asked, but Maya did not say anything. Ellie saw that she was walking towards the kitchen. “What is she planning?” She asked herself.
Maya came back to the living room with a knife in her hand. Ellie quickly stood up when she saw the girl walking up to her with a knife. “What is this, Maya? What are you trying to do with the knife?” She asked, but the girl did not say a word. It was as if something had possessed her.
She stepped back, but Maya kept coming closer. With every step she took, she felt like she was getting weak. “Stay back.” She said weakly, but Maya kept coming closer.
Suddenly, she felt that she couldn’t move again; she was too weak. She felt like something was about to take over her system, but she was resisting with all her strength.
Maya moved closer to her, but before the knife could touch Ellie, She suddenly felt a sudden breeze pushing her far away from Ellie to the ground. Then something jumped on her so that she couldn’t move.
Before anything could happen to her face. She screamed. Ellie! Ellie! Snap out of it.
At the sound of her voice, Ellie suddenly fell to the ground. She quickly crawled to where Maya was lying and asked with tears in her eyes. “Maya. Are you okay? I’m so sorry.” She cried, but Maya stopped her.
“It’s not your fault. At least now we know when it comes out.” Maya stood up from the ground, wincing in pain. She felt that something had pounced on her. It was so strong that she couldn’t even use her werewolf strength to push it away.
She helped Ellie up to the nearest chair before sitting beside her. She took a book out of her bag and opened it.
“The only strong creature I know that has green eyes is this.” She dropped the book on the table for Ellie to see.
“A white wolf?” Ellie asked, looking at the picture in the book. She remembered that she had seen the white wolf picture in one of Alex’s books in his study. She remembered that the real white wolf was the only wolf with green eyes, and it was very rare.
“Yes. A white wolf.” Maya replied. She knew for a fact that Ellie was a wolf, but she couldn’t understand the type of wolf she was. She had never seen a wolf attack without being seen. She knew that a white wolf is a very strong wolf, and it might be possible Ellie is one, but the phenomenon is not what she understands.
