Before I could complete my words, a sudden gunshot pierced the air, jolting me to my core.
As I regained my composure, I couldnât help but curse, âDamn it! Who the devil fired that shot?â
To shoot now was to disrupt our plan intentionally, wasnât it?
I shot a furious glare at each officer.
âNot us!â
The officers vehemently denied it.
âWe didnât fire any shots!â
I was clearly displeased.
âSo, the gun just fired itself, did it?â
The officers exchanged uneasy glances and fell silent.
At that moment, one of the officers pointed to the distance and exclaimed, âZoe, look over there! Whatâs happening?â
I followed the officerâs gaze and noticed a sudden transformation in the previously quiet area.
Ferocious wolves had materialized seemingly out of thin air and were launching a frenzied assault on the factory and the Barton familyâs guards.
The scene descended into utter pandemonium, leaving me utterly perplexed.
What on earth was unfolding?

Amidst the werewolves, I saw a familiar figure.
It was none other than Harlan.
A blaze of warmth ignited in my chest.

It had been an age since Iâd seen Harlan, yet there he stood, robust as ever.
In his presence, I felt an odd sense of security that wrapped around me like a protective cloak.
âPeople from the Xeric Pack has arrived!â I bellowed.
âQuick, itâs about time! Remember, our objective today is mot to clash with the Barton familyâs forces but to safeguard the plants.
These are the beacons of hope for the ailing children of the Thorn Edge Pack!â
âAye, captain!â
My men promptly sprinted toward the precious flowers.
Despite the eruptions of violence and the relentless symphony of gunfire, they remained stalwart and gallant in their mission.
Their courage was a sight to behold, and I watched in silent admiration as they charged forward, offering silent benedictions from the depths of my heart.
Then, I raced to join forces with Harlan.
âZoe?â Harlanâs eyes widened in disbelief, momentarily stopping fighting.
