Maria and Micael walked up to the front door of Micael and Adrianne's house, Micael opened the door, taking off his shoe.
Maria got in and the smell of lavender was in every corner of the house. Then there was loud bang that came from the kitchen, which caused Micael to head to the direction of the kitchen.
There was smoke everywhere and Micael began coughing and waved his hands trying to clear it out. When he finally managed to clear away the smoke he saw Adrianne standing there, her face was covered with black soot and her usual curly hair was up in a mad scientist way.
She let out a cough and smoke came out of her mouth in a cartoon like manner.
"What exactly were you trying to do?" Micael asked, and by that Maria had arrived wondering what the whole commotion was about, only to see Adrianne in that manner.
"Maria," Adrianne exclaimed, walking past Micael and ignoring his question, to give her a hug. "How you doing?"
"I am not doing fine Adrianne. Something terrible happened today."
"Oh my, come let's talk about it."
"Oi, I asked you a question!" Micael exclaimed, and Adrianne rolled her eyes are him.
She snapped her fingers and kitchen was restored back to normal, she took Maria by her arm and they head towards the living room, Micael followed them outside, still pissed off that Adrianne never answered his question.
Adrianne led her to the kitchen and motioned for her to sit down, which she complied. Micael stood by the window side, hands in pocket as his gaze settled on the both of them.
"So, tell me. What happened to you?" Adrianne asked.
"My friend Anna just died." Maria let out a breath, her hands were shaky, Adrianne held her hand rubbing the back of her hand trying to calm her down.
"Well, she died last night, it was an attack from somebody, it wasn't the usual animal attack. It looked like the person killed her on purpose. Micael said that it was most likely the same person that killed my fiancee that killed her as well."
Adrianne looked at Micael, it was if they were communicating something to each other with their eyes. Then Adrianne's attention went back to Maria and said: "Would you like a cup of coffee or tea?"
"Tea please." Maria quipped.
Adrianne stood up and head back to the kitchen to make tea. She came back some few minutes later and handed it over to her.
"Thank you," she whispered softly, then blew on the tea and then took a sip.
"Did Micael tell you the name of the person that most likely killed your friend and fiancee?"
Maria nodded her head. "He said that his name is Ansel. That they came from the same pack."
"Micael did you by any chance tell her about your plan on getting revenge from your pack?"
Micael nodded his head in affirmation.
"Did you get into details about it?"
"I didn't. Remember you said that I should wait for you to come back from your trip."
"That's a good thing, now that all three of us are here. Why don't we go ahead and tell her about the plan."
"That doesn't sound like a bad idea." Micael said agreeing to what she said.
Maria looked between the both of them, confusion on her face, wondering what exactly is happening.
"Maria, you probably have heard the story about how Micael got banished from his pack due to false accusations and now his life as a rogue werewolf?"
"Yes I have."
"Well, about a year down the line, we met. I mean it was something that I had seen in a vision, so seeing him wasn't that much of a surprise to me. However what I didn't see was your sudden appearance, I saw you in a other vision. I rarely have visions that much, but yours was super clear. Like HD, so instructed him not to go into detail about the plan with you till I arrived.
"So, I think it's time we let you on the plan, already."

Ansel sat at the head of dining table, sipping wine, letting the fermented grape to tingle his taste buds a little.
The room to the dining room open up and in came his mother, she was looking frantic like she seen something disturbing.
She came closer to Ansel, "Ansel, my dear son. I just heard on the news that another person is dead."
"And how does that concerns me?"
"It concerns you, cause you would be the future leader of this pack, and ever since..." She stopped midway, trying her best not to speak of 'him'. "Ever since 'he' was banished from the pack."
"Are we the only pack in this entire place?"
"No we are not." She said, sounding defeated already.
"Good," he stood up from the chair, wine in hand. "Now if you'd excuse me, since you ruined my stay here I take my live and head to my room. Have a nice day mother."
He walked towards the door, the sound of the door opening and closing resonated around the room.
Esmeralda bit her bottom lip, she was worried about her son. He has changed, he wasn't the same man that he used to be before.
Ansel walked towards his bedroom with long strides, opening up the door, he stopped when he saw a paper on the floor.
He bent down to pick it up, he looked at the content written on it. He let out a scoff crumpling it up in his hand and throwing aside, he kissed his teeth before he entered into his room.
He sat on his bed, since Anna wasn't around to help cure him from usual hormonal feeling. He guessed that he had no choice but to call up Antonio.
Calling him up, he realized that he wasn't around that he went haunting with some other wolves, he cut the call, pissed off that he didn't have anything to cure his hormonal distress at the moment.
He lay down on his bed, looking up at the ceiling lights, then he brought his hand up and looked at it under light.
Guess he had no choice but use it, once again.
