After all, the rogue king was only capable of creating alphas through his bite. With how many he’d bitten over the ages, it only made sense that there would be enough alpha rogues to cause a lot of trouble for the hunters. The rogues were always increasing. Looking at the two humans in the room, Lina realized they were the first to get bitten and have hope of staying human. ‘Seeing them remain human will mark a miracle...’ she thought to herself, thinking back to the many times she had to be careful with her fangs as they were potentially the most lethal kind in the world, along with the rest of her family.

“Hey, Trevor. Come and take a look at this,” Honour broke the silence when she was just about to start applying the bandages over the girl’s bite mark.

“Huh, no, I don’t need to see it anymore. I have all the proof that I...”

“Just get over here. I don’t think you’ll ever get another opportunity to see what the bite of an alpha looks like and know what the difference is,” she said to him.

Sighing, the head hunter came closer and squatted next to her to make out what it was she was showing him, “Well, it looks like all the others to me.”

“I see you don’t pay attention to detail,” Honour groaned before pointing out the one thing that should have made a difference, “Look at the upper row, there are two deep wounds where there should be one for the canines.”

The junior hunter squinted for a bit before his eyes widened with recognition. His eyes darted about the bite mark and he found that there was proof of six canines in total instead of the usual four, “What is the meaning of this?”

“I’m surprised you’ve never realized it. Alphas have one more pair of canines in their upper jaw. Depending on the anger of the royal, they can grow up to twelve canines. Well, they usually grow twelve when they’ve gone feral and just want to kill everything in sight. Luckily, I’ve never experienced that and hope I never do,” Honour explained before wrapping up the girl, sealing her wounds.

.....

Trevor turned to the two junior hunters that had escorted them there and asked that they stay watching the room for a few more hours to make sure the two victims of the attack remained, ‘human.’ The junior hunters reluctantly agreed... The fact that the head hunter was being cautious only shattered their confidence. “What do we do when they do shift?” one of them asked.

“Well, you keep the door closed and call for help,” Trevor tapped their shoulders, “Or you could put your training to the test. After all, they won’t turn into alphas or anything like that so I suspect they’ll be the weakest kind of werewolves you will ever get to face in your lives.”

With that said, he walked out. Honour helped Lyla up and made sure she got in bed safely, “Is there anything that I can get you before you fall asleep. A cup of water perhaps.”

“No, I’m fine, Honour,” Lyla replied, turning to face her boyfriend’s bed, “If only you could miraculously heal him. That would be more than I could ever ask for. If it was even possible.” The girl chuckled before falling asleep.

Honour remained quiet for a bit watching the girl sleep, “It’s rare to find humans that are this selfless. I wish these two never change.”

Lina didn’t know why or what it was that made her even question it, but she felt the air shift in the room. Maybe it was just her imagination speaking, however, it didn’t stop her from speaking her mind, “Your wish might just come true. Who knows?”

......

The two females left the room and returned to the hotel gates to see if there was any more healing that was required of them or if more healing was required of Honour. As it had turned out, most of the injured had been treated and moved already. They were barely needed to handle the rest. All those that had been severely injured had been handled well. Thankfully, they were werewolves which allowed them to relax a bit knowing they would heal given time.

Lina looked about frantically in search of someone else. She grabbed the first junior hunter that was passing by her by the sleeve, “Hey, have you seen Katie?”

“N-no... I haven’t. Have I done something wrong?” the boy stammered.

“No, move on... Where is she?” she said more to herself, letting go of the boy and searching for her next victim. She’d disturbed two more by the time a voice stopped her rampage.

“Are you going to do that to the entire community? At this rate, you’ll even wake the sleeping humans and ask them the same questions,” Sandra said to her.

Lina let go of the one she was holding and approached the junior hunter, “Where is she?”

“It’s good to see you too, Lina,” Sandra replied. Jason chuckled beside her, watching the spectacle and choosing to stay out of it.

“Sandra...”

“I know I know. You should be worried. If it’s any consolation, she asked me to give you a message. Her message was that you were to stay put at the hotel and do nothing to follow her. You are not to enter the woods again until the sun rises as well. I thought she was going to keep giving you orders until they could fill up a scroll, but the last part of the message was that she was glad you were safe. She didn’t know what she could have done if you were hurt in this whole mess. And she would like you to stay that way... ‘safe,\'” Sandra explained.

“Oh, is that it? Where has she gone?”

“I will only tell you that if you promise to stay put when you hear it,” Sandra replied.

Lina thought through her options before asking, “If I try to go after her, will you stop me?”

“Of course, I...” Sandra had started to answer when she got an idea that forced Jason to finally speak up.

“No, none of you are going after her. That is final. If you won’t stop her, I will,” he spoke up pulling the girl into a side hug to emphasize his point.

“Well, yeah... I’d have to stop you from following her. I’m tempted to go after them if I’m being honest with you, but I know better than to go against a Chase hunter. The last time that happened, the rogues completely overwhelmed us,” the hunter replied, tears welling up in her eyes.

“Okay then... Tell me what happened,” Lina asked, giving up all her hopes of running after her sister. The silence that came from the girl was the only indication that more was happening than any of them was letting on, “This is not over, is it?”

“Let’s go in... You might want to take a seat...” Jason asked them, ushering them towards the hotel gates.

........Before Katie’s departure...

“Do you have any energy left? We might be going into something more dangerous than anything you’ve been through tonight,” Katie told the female hunter before her.

“The rest of you know nothing about the cell tower. I am hoping the damage is not serious so that I can fix it. I’m no expert, but if there is any hope that we could get a message outside the reserve, then I would like to take it,” Alice responded.

“Katie, you forgot this up there,” a male voice interrupted them. Katie turned to see Gallant running towards her with her bow and a spare quiver half-filled with grey metallic arrows.

“Oh, hey Gallant. Thank you for this,” she replied, taking the bow and quiver from him. Using her Strength gift, she began to fold the bow into its diminished form against all the tension that kept it unfurled. The spectacle kept the rest of them silent until the girl had the bow completely down in size. She attacked it to the back of the quiver and slung the pack over her shoulder before looking up at the watching faces.

“What...”

“What gift do you have?” Alice asked her.

“I would have thought that was obvious at this point. You raced with me on the first day we were here. That already tells you what gift I have,” she said.

“Strength or Agility... which is it, girl? No, I am certain you’ve got the one of agility down, but...”

“Why is that question always so hard? Are they really that few hunters that possess both gifts?” Cole pondered more to himself.

“To be precise, I only know of one other hunter with both gifts,” Katie replied.

“You’re scary, Katie Sirius,” Cole replied.

“I know, honey. I get that a lot,” she replied, leaning into him for a moment, “The wolf at the cell tower. He’s like nothing we’ve faced. Every one of us going is to stay vigilant.”

“That’s great. What are we waiting for? Let’s get going,” Sandra said, determination laced in her voice.

“You’re not going, Sandra,” Katie raised her voice, sending chills down her friend’s spine.

“What!” was all Sandra could say upon hearing Katie’s words, for this had never happened for as long as she’d known the hunter.
