Triplet Alphas' POV
Riko is becoming increasingly dejected since we had stopped him from chasing after Lucia. Among the three of us he is the most affected by her absence. Ever since the day we saw her on the mountains, he has been roaming around the forest with the hope that she might be brought back for whatever she had been sent for.
For consolation's sake, Rhodes and I have made it a habit of accompanying him on the pretext of hunting. Not that we are not equally affected, but our resolve not to let her absence trouble us is because we are not keen on breaking our father's direct orders.
"Do you sense anything?" Riko asks suddenly, sniffing the air around. We are resting after a wild goose chase.
"Sure!" Rhodes confirms. "Smells like the stupid Lycans!"
"You are right," I concur. "Look over there!" I add after seeing some ruffling of foliage.
