Chapter 2 The unplan attack

As the sun went down, making the forest look spooky, at Mamasan pack territory in the big woods some werewolves gathered in Lord Ragnar's the Mamasan alpha big hall. Rocco the second in command to Lord Ragnar and Emelia the beta, and a great warrior, who has been serving Lord Ragnar since she was a child standing strong next to Lord Ragnar, felt the tension in the air, with the pack muttering angrily.Lord Ragnar was about to have a brief meeting with the pack when Suddenly, the peace shattered as the doors slammed open, and a group of angry werewolves burst in, growling loudly.

Their leader, eyes full of fury, accused Lord Ragnar of killing his brother."you killer you kill my brother you will pay for it," the leader of the intruder saidLord Ragnar got mad, his voice booming as he faced the intruders. Emelia watched as lord Ragnar exchanged words with the intruder which made her furious, seeing an intruder coming into their territory was nothing but an insult to their pack, but she stayed by Lord Ragnar's side, ready to fight for their pack.Just as she was expecting a big fight broke out, claws and teeth clashing in a wild brawl. Rocco Emelia and the other few pack members joined lord Ragnar in fighting the intruder, but they were outnumbered, and defeat seemed close.In the middle of the chaos, a roar filled the hall, stopping everyone in their tracks. A huge white wolf, looking powerful and important, stood in the doorway. The intruders trembled, recognizing the Alpha among them."You've come where you shouldn't, what are you doing in our territory?" the Alpha's voice boomed, staring down the lead intruder. "Leave now and never come back."The intruders ran off, scared by the Alpha's words. Lord Ragnar and Emelia watched in amazement as the Alpha turned to them, its eyes showing wisdom and kindness.In a sign of respect, Lord Ragnar and his pack bowed, showing they understood the Alpha's authority. Emelia felt proud, and thankful for the Alpha's help and the unity it brought to their pack.The Alpha nodded solemnly before vanishing into the shadows, leaving behind a lingering sense of awe and uncertainty. As the intruders faded into the night, Lord Ragnar stood by instructing the other pack to clean up the mess created by the intruder, his gaze fixed on Emelia with concern etched on his face. He sensed her turmoil and wanted to offer reassurance."Emelia," he spoke softly, his voice a comforting presence in the darkness. "Are you alright?"Emelia turned to him, her eyes reflecting her inner turmoil. "Yea yea sure," she admitted, her voice tinged with uncertainty. "What was that? Did you know those guys?"Lord Ragnar placed a comforting hand on her shoulder, seeking to ease her worry. "I don't know," he confessed, his uncertainty mirroring hers. "But whatever they wanted or were after, it's gone now. We're safe."Emelia nodded, taking a deep breath to steady herself. "I think I need to head home. I have things to attend to," she murmured, her voice barely audible in the stillness of the night."Of course," Lord Ragnar agreed, concern evident in his eyes. "But if you don't mind, can I accompany you?"Emelia nodded gratefully, and together they set off towards the village near the woods, their footsteps breaking the silence of the night.Meanwhile, Rocco followed them and watched them from the shadows, he was watching them closely. Rocco's heart was full of Emelia's love, He trailed behind them without letting them know grappling with his feelings. He had harbored feelings for Emelia for a very long time but fear of risking their Years friendship and the reaction of Emelia if he confessed his love to her had kept him silent. Yet, witnessing her vulnerability had stirred something within him, compelling him to speak his truth. He knew he couldn't stay silent any longer. He had to find a way to express his love for Emelia.Rocco watched as Emelia and Lord Ragnar made their way towards the village, his mind wrestling with a decision. He couldn't bear to turn away now; he had to find a way to confess his feelings to Emelia.As Lord Ragnar and Emelia paused not far from her house, discussing the earlier attack on their pack, Rocco remained hidden listening to their conversation, thinking about his next move. When Lord Ragnar bid his farewell and departed from Emelia Rocco's build-up so boldly He couldn't let Emelia go home alone, not with the danger still lurking in the shadows.Just as Emelia began to head home, she stopped abruptly and turned around. Rocco held his breath, hoping she hadn't noticed him. But to his surprise, Emelia called out to him."Rocco? Is that you? Come out; you have been there awhile I can smell your scent, " she beckoned.Feeling a mix of nerves and determination, Rocco stepped out of the shadows, approaching Emelia cautiously."Hey I didn't know you would notice me," he greeted, his voice trembling slightly. "I... I just wanted to make sure you were okay."Emelia regarded him with a puzzled expression. " I am good Rocco, and what are you doing here at this time? Are you good?" she inquired."I was... I was worried about you," he confessed, his words rushing out in a jumble. "With those attackers earlier, I couldn't just let you go home alone. I wanted to protect you from any potential danger you know the shadow pack is everywhere."Emelia's demeanor softened, gratitude evident in her expression. "Thank you for your concern," she said sincerely."You don't have to thank me," Rocco replied, his heart racing. "I just... I just wanted to ensure your safety."Pausing for a moment, Rocco summoned the courage to express his true feelings. "Emelia, there's something important that is bothering me. I want to tell you for a while now," he confessed, his tone serious."What is it?" Emelia asked, her eyes searching his face for answers.Taking a deep breath, Rocco spoke from his heart. "I... Have feelings for you Emelia," he admitted, his voice filled with sincerity The words spilled out of Rocco's mouth before he could stop them, and Emelia's eyes widened in shock as she stood frozen before him"You are what?" she stammered, her voice barely audible as she looked around before focusing back on Rocco.Rocco's heartbeat increases as he struggles to spill out the words while Emelia stands still before him, she is shocked by Rocco's words which are unbelievable But yeRocco cannot control his feelings but confesses his love for Emelia, pouring out all his emotion."I've been in love with you Emelia, I didn't know how to explain how I feel towards you, I am deeply in love with you" he admitted, his voice barely above a whisper. "But I was too scared to tell you, thinking what might happen to our years of friendship. I didn't want to run it ."Emelia's expression changed and calmed as she tried to find her voice and put words together amidst the unexpected confession. But all the words that could come out of her mouth were, "I... I don't know what to say Rocco you are my friend" she finally managed, her voice trembling with uncertainty.Rocco took a tentative step closer, his heart pounding in his chest. "I understand how you feel you didn't expect it From me," he murmured. "I just wanted you to know how I felt. I didn't want to hide it from you."Emelia's eyes softened with compassion as she reached out to touch his arm, her gesture offering a semblance of comfort. "Rocco, I know I care about you a lot, but it was just as a friend nothing else, and I always will," she began, her words laced with regret. "But I'm sorry, I don't feel anything for you. There's a lot on my mind, and like you said I wasn't expecting it ."Rocco was shocked and moved as he heard her response, the weight of unrequited love bearing down on him. "Fine it's nothing," he whispered, a fake smile tugging at his lips. "We can still be friends as always. Let's be friends as we were before, and thanks for your words ."Emelia's gaze lingered on him, she knew she had hurt him but she didn't have anything for him, she regretted as Rocco turned to leave, his heart heavy with unspoken emotions. "Okay, friends," Emelia replied, her voice thick with emotions. "And I will always be a good friend to you."With a sad heart, Rocco turned and walked away, feeling a mixture of sadness and gratitude. He knew he had experienced his years of feelings for her and was glad, but was hurt by Emelia's response which he wasn't expecting. He could only hope that their friendship would endure despite the revelation of his feelings. and wish she changed her mind one day As he walked away, Rocco couldn't help but feel like there was someone else watching him, someone hidden in the shadows. He turned to face the woods but found nothing. He then walked towards the shadow in the woods and vanished away but in the woods near me on a big tree its branches stretched towards the sky. Among its leaves, a pair of red eyes observed the scene between Rocco and Emelia. These eyes belonged to Lord Ragnar, who stood motionless, his thoughts racing.As Rocco departed, Lord Ragnar's heart sank. He had secretly hoped for Rocco and Emelia to find happiness together, but now it seemed that fate had other plans. Watching Rocco walk away filled him with a profound sense of loss, yet he knew he had to let go and return home.
