After a few minutes, Liara went behind the tree and shifted into her wolf form.
“Why are you watching from here? Come out!!” Brandon said when he found Theodore watching Liara from afar. “Show me your move. Today you will practice with Destiny.” He added, bringing Theodore in front of Destiny, who was waiting for Brandon.
Destiny growled in anger.
“Don’t be mad at me, Princess!! I promise I will practice with you later.” Brandon said, reaching near Destiny and patting her beautiful red coat. “I have to watch your mate’s strength,” he added, thinking she was mad because he wasn’t practicing with her, but Theodore knew why she was mad.
Brandon didn’t miss noticing small white patches in the red coat, which wasn’t before.
‘What is happening to her coat?’ He wondered in tension.
“Theodore, I hope you’re ready. Destiny’s strength is both anger and love because they both symbolize the color of her RED coat.” Brandon warned while Destiny growled in anger, looking at him. She wasn’t going to spare Theodore from hurting them.
“Ready?” Brandon had barely asked, but Destiny lunged at Theodore before that. He watched them carefully. He sensed that Theodore was strong even in human form, strong enough to dodge all of Destiny’s attacks.
He left from there for a while to talk about white patches on Destiny’s coat. He grabbed his phone and dialed Rebecca Weasley’s number by going into an area where no one could hear him.
“Hey, Brandon!! If you have called me to know about Lee’s future, then you should consult the new King and Queen.” Rebecca said quickly, trying to catch her breath.
Brandon understood that he disturbed her when she was spending time with her chosen mate, Oliver Weasley.
“No. It’s not that. It’s about Lee’s wolf, Destiny.”
“What is it?” Rebecca asked in a serious tone, signaling Oliver to stop kissing her neck.
“There are white patches on the red coat. Is this some kind of disease or something?” Brandon asked in tension.
“Seriously, Brandon? You got so panicked that you didn’t realize that getting white patches is nothing but a sign that her powers are getting activated. Twenty-four years back, Liara took birth at a very auspicious time; that moment is said to be very special because once in a century, a blessed wolf is born at a particular time.”
Brandon’s jaw tightened at that information, “I know you never wanted Lee to be a blessed pup, Brandon. Because a blessed wolf has to go through a lot of pain, that’s Moon Goddess's way to train her for the worst.”
“One of the old prophecies is that a pup from blessed wolf always becomes the Werewolf King. We both know that Steve can’t become a father. So, be careful with the fact Lee doesn’t go in the wrong hand.”
“Hmm!!” Brandon hummed and disconnected the call, reaching Theodore and Liara. He watched how Theodore grabbed her by her neck, even in his human form, and threw Destiny away. She whimpered in pain when her body with a tree.
“Come on, Destiny!! You’re stronger than this. Don’t cry like a pup.” Theodore said in determination. He didn’t fulfill his promise to teach her how to fight back then. But he didn’t want to leave this opportunity. But after whimpering for a while, she fell unconscious, turning back into a human.
“Lee!!” Before Brandon could reach her. Theodore was the first to reach near her. He gently picked her up in his arms and left from there, carrying her in his arms.
‘Damn, Rogue! He doesn’t obey anyone.’ Brandon thought, feeling irritated a little. And at the same time, his eyes landed on the blood where Theodore was. He went near it and collected the sample, recalling how Colton asked for it.

Theodore made her lay down on the bed and watched at her face without blinking, memorizing each and everything on her face. It had been a while since he had done that. He used to do the same when she used to fall asleep while studying. He pulled the blanket to her neck, making sure that she was covered perfectly.
He sat beside her on the bed and waited for her to wake so that he could finally talk with her, and by that time, he watched her sleeping figure.
He raised his hand and brought it to her cheek. His thumb started caressing its pink cheek because of training. The last time he had observed her this shade of pink was when she was under her.
His gaze swept down at her pink lips. He couldn't help himself from leaning toward her lips, but before his lips could have touched her, he watched her body get stiffen. He lifted his eyes, and from a pair of green eyes, looking at him with so much anger that he couldn't explain.
