Chapter 40 The Wolf's Instinct

• Nathan was focused on turning his son into a "true wolf." Despite the transformation not being complete, recent events made him fear for his son's safety. However, Nathan had no idea about the secrets his son kept. Adrian was connected to a witch who descended from the one who created the curse that his father hated. If Nathan discovered Luna was involved, he wouldn't hesitate. He would hunt her down and burn her, just as he had done with others. He had to protect her. It was more than just passion; it was an instinct. An instinct that told him she couldn't be harmed, that no one could touch her, and that he would die to defend her.
• At that moment, Nathan had taken Adrian to the circle in the forest, where Kate, his schoolmate, had been sacrificed by a witch. The area was cordoned off by the police, but his father had a lot of power, and many of the officers were part of the pack. They were spread throughout the town, as they couldn't leave. Over generations, the town had been completely taken over by wolves. However, the transformation was still a secret. Werewolves and giant wolves were myths that frightened children at night and teenagers, who feared staying out late, especially on a full moon.
• Adrian breathed fire. He didn't want to be there, but his father aimed to show him what witches really did. It wasn't the first time he had been there. Many students and young people went to that bizarre place, telling false stories and urban legends to scare everyone. It caused a total confusion. For the police, there were many misleading clues that could lead nowhere. After all, there was all sorts of junk there—food wrappers, drink containers, some shoes, and other things. Finding the culprit or the witch would be a challenge, but Nathan had something special. Supernatural beings were his specialty, but Adrian didn't know this. He had no idea his father had a way to find witches and that it could lead to Luna.
