Chapter 327 - Golden Moon Pack Thrives (Part II)

Somewhere in the woods of the Golden Moon Pack Territory,

A group of youngsters celebrating their graduation.

Their host was someone respected amongst the ranks of warriors in Golden Moon Pack.

"Great Party, Lance! You are the best!" exclaimed by one of the celebrating graduates.

Lance raised his plastic cup filled with beer.

Proud at the sight of what he has gathered through his efforts.

One of the orphan children approached Lance.

"Umm … I know your intentions are good but don't you think this party in the woods, a bit dangerous? Especially with the warning from the Beta." Misha expressed her worry.

"Just enjoy the moment, kiddo! Sometimes you have to live by the moment because you do not know if you will have another chance to enjoy your life as you should be." Response of Lance to the valid concern of Misha.

The crowd was filled with high school student and teenagers from the Golden Moon Academy.

Music …

Booze …

And dancing …

Everyone was having fun.

Until the music got cut off.

Because of the presence of Caleb and Scarlett.

"THE PARTY IS OVER! GO BACK TO YOUR HOMES!" Caleb commanded.

A loud whining and disappointed reactions could be heard from the crowd.

Unfortunately, Caleb was not in the mood to reconsider.

"NOW!!!! Or should I terminate all the applications for the warrior training program?" Caleb threatened everyone.

Immediately everyone dispersed and went on their own way back to their homes.

"What the hell? I am just giving the graduates some fun times to remember. It's their graduation day for crying out loud!" Lance defended his actions towards his older brother.

"You are calling this having fun? I am seeing this as reckless and irresponsible hosting! Aren't you aware of the sudden attacks of vampires lately? The reports are showing how dangerous it is to be around the borders right now." Caleb reprimanding his younger brother.

"We need this kind of distractions once in a while. This wolf pack has been mourning and grieving for the loss of our Luna which happened years ago. I do not think it is right to keep the new generation in such a limbo of sadness if we can actually grant them some good days to remember!" Lance retorted his older brother's reprimand.

Misha and the other orphan children witnessed the two brothers argue and bicker.

Then their mate, Scarlett, stepped in between before things got serious between the two.

"Both of you stop arguing in front of others! Can the two of you stop arguing?" Scarlett mediated the two brothers.

A brief silence and glaring between Caleb and Lance.

Two brothers who cannot seem to get along with each other.

'Who do you think is stronger between the two?'

'Are you kidding me? You are asking that? Of course it's Caleb! He is the commander of the warriors!'

Whispers between the other orphan children.

Misha joined in, 'I think … Scarlett is stronger than the two! She got those two werewolves under her palm.'

Smiling towards the other orphan children.

They nodded with her point. As they approached the three executive officers.

"Both of you need to clean this up! And we will have to report to Beta Garrett. He is looking for us. I think he has a task for us to accomplish." Scarlett instructed the two brothers.

Seeing that Lance was looking a little bit disappointed, Scarlett explained to him.

"Lance, what you are doing for the kids is good but right now we are dealing with something dangerous. There is an outbreak of vampires lately and we cannot put others in a vulnerable situation."

"I get your point, Scarlett. I will apologize to our Beta later." A clear tone of disappointment in the reply of Lance.

"I think it's better if you host it in the mansion. I will help you convince Beta Garrett!" Scarlett tried to uplift the mood of Lance.

"Really? That's great then. I will tell the graduates reconvene in the mansion." Lance became excited once more.

This did not go well with Caleb.

"You are spoiling Lance, Scarlett. He is not a little kid that needs pampering. He is a grown ass man already." Caleb complained.

"Caleb! Your younger brother is doing a favor for the younger ones. He has a point. Until when should everyone grieve on our loss? Maybe it's time for us to make new memories and a better one for the next generation. Not live in the past." Scarlett was serious with her words.

While Caleb understood Scarlett's point, he gave in to her words and hugged her.

"Fine! How can I win in an argument with you, hmm?"

"Stop making a scene! There are kids watching. So watch your hands and lips!"

"Hey! You two … I can see you both! No fair!" Lance yelled from a distance complaining at the public display of Caleb and Scarlett.

Laughter and teasing went afterwards.

"I will bring the other kids back to the orphanage. Just wait for me in the mansion." Scarlett volunteered in accompanying the orphan children.

But the orphans complained.

"Aww! We are no longer kids, Scarlett." One of the orphans complained.

"Nah! Don't listen to them, Scarlett! I am glad that you will accompany us." Misha expressed her gratitude to Scarlett.

As they made their way, Scarlett wrapped her arm around Misha.

"Damn, Misha! You are growing taller. How I wish … Selene could have seen you grow up!" Scarlett sudden remark.

"Yeah! How I wish for that too." Misha replied.

Few moments later …

A sudden screams and noise from a distance could be heard.

'Scarlett, get away from the woods! Vampires spotted by the patrol unit. It looks like there are plenty of them.' Caleb warned Scarlett through the mind-link.

"Everyone, lets hurry!" Scarlett instructed all the orphan children with her.

Before they could even get out from the woods.

Six vampires appeared right in front of her and the kids.

"Where are you going? Woof … Woof!" uttered confidently by one of the vampires.

Things became intense and ominous for everyone.
