Chapter 79: 79. You're a wolf?

Dexter walked towards Marco with a frown on his face.

Marco was shocked to see the guy that was supposed to be dead walking towards him and as he turned to leave, he saw Dexter behind him.

"Where do you think you're going?" Dexter asked with furrowed brows.

"Hahaha. I see you made it back." Marco laughed hysterically.

Dexter wasn't buying Marco's pretense and walked up to the dude.

Marco was frightened as he knew that if this guy was able to beat that creature that he and his team couldn't, he was the most powerful amongst them.

'He has the power to defeat that thing.' Marco gulped.

Dexter just sighed.

"Be a better leader and don't put people's lives in danger. An eye for an eye so watch your back." Dexter said to him before walking away towards the medical area.

Marco let out a sigh of relief and he looked at Dexter with a confused expression.

"Seems like he made it back." A voice came from beside Marco and he turned to see his brother there.

"If he returned that would mean he defeated the creature, which would mean that he is the strongest--"

"I know that already." Marco snapped and walked away towards another direction.

Mike only looked at Dexter who was leaving and he couldn't help but think about one thing.

'What exactly are his powers?' He thought before walking away.

...

Dexter walked towards the medical area and saw Dreg on his way there.

Dreg looked at Dexter who was nearly covered in dust and blood and he became curious to know where Dexter went.

"Where were you? You look beaten."

"I was sent to fight something that almost killed me." Dexter sighed.

"Well, at least you're back safely. Go in already, she woke up a couple minutes ago." Dreg said and Dexter nodded.

He walked behind a curtain and dismissed his shirt and coat before re-equiping them again and washing hus face and arms. Hus clothes were now as good as new and he walked towards her bed.

From the distance, he looked to see her talking to Tracy with a smile and Dexter too smiled as she was okay now.

"Yes, it's really my fault. I'll be more careful next time." Tracy said with a smile and then she noticed someone approaching them and she gestured for Hannah to turn around.

As Hannah turned she saw Dexter standing beside the bed with a smile.

Dexter sat beside her and stroked her curly hair backwards.

"Are you okay?'' He asked with a smile as he looked into her strangely golden coloured pupils.

Hannah nodded to him as she pulled him before hugging him closely.

Dexter only sighed at this as he hugged her back.

Even if he wanted to be angry at her, strangely, it isn't possible.

"I don't even know whether to scold you right now." Dexter mumbled.

"The doctors said I was free to go so... I left." She said.

"I'm glad you're okay." Dexter said while closing his eyes and Hannah was quite shocked.

"I've never seen this caring side of you before." She teased.

"I always cared. I just didn't want to seem weak willed." Dexter said as he looked at her.

"Come sit with me, I have a question for you." Dexter said as he held her hand and directed her to sit beside him.

"I'm listening."

"How did you get injured? Tell me how it really happened. And don't lie, I know you're a wolf."

"A... a wolf?" Hannah looked uneasy as she left his hand.

"How did you know?" She mumbled.

Dexter sighed as he looked up to the sky.

"A vampire told me." Dexter smirked. "I wouldn't have believed if I hadn't saw strange things in this world in the past two weeks."

"Don't worry, I'm not going to bite you." Hannah smiled and Dexter pulled her closer.

"This is serious. Although I'm still in disbelief." Dexter looked at his hands.

"I'm just glad you're okay though. But... You're a werewolf?" Dexter chuckled in disbelief.

"I know. Even I was freaked out when I found out." She mumbled as she looked up too.

Dexter pulled her close and she rested her head on his shoulder.

'I'm feeling weird about telling her that I'm a vampire. When did I learn to be ashamed?' Dexter pondered.

'I'll say it when it's convinient for me. I've almost got everyone, the only person remaining is mom.' He thought, gazing at the single star in the sky which shone brightly.

...

The next morning Dexter woke up and he found that Hannah and Tracy were up too and fully dressed.

A person grabbed his hand and when he turned to see Lily, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Where did you go off to?" He asked, furrowing his brows in annoyance.

Last night when he was about to sleep he noticed that Lily wasn't close to him for some time and he searched the camp for her.

"I went hunting to practice the skill you gave me yesterday. I don't want to be a burden to you. I want to fight." Lily said as she balled her fists.

'Hehe, so cute.' Dexter smiled.

"Don't worry, I'll teach you some advanced moves later." Dexter said and Lily was happy about it.

Seeing Dexter awake and out Hannah smiled as she waved at him.

"Who's the girl?" Tracy said in a hoarse tone.

"Seems like you're already reverting back to normal." Dexter gazed at Tracy.

"Yeah. I just needed a full day of rest and peace to calm down." Tracy said, looking at the ground.

"Anyways. This is my sister, Lily." Dexter introduced her.
