126 Battle in Darkness

Wolves were nocturnal animals. Wild wolves were used to hunting and scavenging at night, and they could do that because they had excellent night vision that not many animals could compare with.

A certain reflective layer behind their retinas helped increase the light exposure and allowed them to see clearly in the darkness.

Additionally, their eyes glowed in the dark and gave them a haunted look.

In this aspect, werewolves were no different from regular wolves. If anything, their sense of sight was a lot better than that of an average wolf.

The six werewolves were more than interested to go down the cliff to take a look at the actual battleground beneath the thick canopy of leaves, but it was already quite late at night.

They eventually decided to go back to the camping site to get enough rest for the night.

“How many warriors does the Night Prowler Pack have?” Kendra queried on their way back.

“With the sixteen other packs to support them, I would say they have almost three hundred,” Acatha replied. The Night Prowler Pack was a huge pack, so it was just natural to have that many warriors going into a war.

It was too bad that the Infinite Eclipse Pack, the only pack that was comparable to the Night Prowler Pack in size, was only a support pack.

.....

Just like other support packs, it was only able to send a maximum of ten warriors to help.

“Three hundred!” Desmond exclaimed. “We have almost two hundred on our side. Sheesh. Imagine five hundred pairs of wolf eyes haunting around the battleground.”

Annalynne and Kendra started to giggle at each other. “We will look like some beasts in horror movies, waiting to tear our victims to shred.”

“Unless they tear you to shred first,” Desmond raised an eyebrow at the two ladies.

Smiles quickly drained from their faces as they were reminded of the gravity of the war.

“This also means that everyone is exposed to everyone,” Lucien remarked. “There is no point in hiding, unless the wolf in hiding keeps his eyes closed the whole time.”



Desmond hummed while rubbing his chin. “Not necessarily not doable. We can try it tomorrow during our final training, but oooaaaahhhhhhhmmmmm...”

Desmond yawned as soon as he saw the rows of tents that stood all around the camping site. They were cramped together in order to save as much space as possible.

“Oh, whatever. Let’s just sleep for the night. We can think about some special training tomorrow to get our warriors used to fighting in the darkness,” he said while stretching his back and cracking his neck.

The Beta waved at his brothers- and sisters-in-arm before slipping into an empty tent. Acatha and Kendra said good night to Annalynne, Lucien, and Ronan before they also went into another empty tent.

There were neither enough tents nor enough space to build more tents. Due to the present limitations, it was agreed that two people must share a tent.

Annalynne grabbed Lucien’s hand and begged, “Big brother, sleep with me?”

“Out of question!” Ronan exclaimed, pulling at Lucien’s other hand. “A grown-up man and woman cannot share a single tent! That is unheard of!”

Annalynne pursed her lips in displeasure.

“We are siblings who grew up together. Will Alpha Ronan please rid himself of unspeakable, dirty thoughts?”

“Exactly because you are siblings that you must avoid this kind of thing. In the darkness, anything can happen!”

Annalynne put both hands at her hips as she glared at Ronan. “What can happen? Lulu and I sleep together a lot! If anything is supposed to happen between us, it would already happen ages ago!”

“Why must you insist to sleep with Lucien? Go sleep with another woman!”

Annalynne fumed. “If you have not noticed, we have exactly three women in this group! Kendra and Acatha are already sharing a tent!”

Annalynne had expected to share a tent with Lucien, so she happily told Acatha and Kendra to get a tent together.

“Then go squeeze with them, three can still fit inside a tent!” Ronan said dismissively.

The red-headed woman roared in frustration. “Why don’t YOU go squeeze with another man so I can sleep with Lulu???”

Ronan was about to lose it.

“What are you thinking? Your brother and I are dating!”

“Dating doesn’t mean that you two are officially mates. You have even less reason to share a tent with my brother!” Annalynne cried.

“Why less reason? We are both men!”

Annalynne stepped closer to Ronan and narrowed her eyes at him.

“Exactly. I have reason to believe that you are up for something indecent tonight.”

“Whether or not it is decent, it is entirely between your brother and me. You have no say in this,” Ronan hissed.

“I am his sister,” Annalynne claimed.

“You two, stop bickering,” Lucien finally decided to speak up.

Both Ronan and Annalynne turned to look at him with sour expressions.

“If you want us to stop fighting, then why don’t you decide who you want to sleep with tonight?” Ronan asked, crossing his arms before his chest while pinning Lucien with a glare. “This sister of yours or me?”

Annalynne made puppy eyes at her brother. “Lulu? Lulu, you will pick me, right? I am your only sister in this world! And I am also your twin! Can you bear to discard me???”

Lucien rubbed at his temples and sighed.

“I told you two to stop fighting because there is only one empty tent left.”

Lucien pointed at a tent in a corner of the camping site. Indeed, it was the only tent that had not been zipped up for the night.

“We will have to cramp together into that tent tonight, or else one of us must sleep outside of the tent tonight.”

Ronan and Annalynne threw one glance at each other, and then they ran toward the tent in a hurry. They both had one foot inside the tent at approximately the same time.

“It is mine!” Annalynne shouted while pushing Ronan away. “Go sleep outside!”

“In your dreams!” Ronan growled in return. “You are a big girl. Stop pestering your brother!”

Behind them, Lucien rolled with his eyes. It was going to be a tiring night.
