Chosen By The Moon
Chapter 251
“Im… I’m just on work experience. Low pack statuses from our school class come every week, it’s typically the job omegas are put on after graduation.” He was obviously younger than I was, and although he was a Lycan himself, he had been forced into a job he clearly didn’t want to do.
He was in fact also quite small, which I could not help but find odd. Usually lycans were both naturally taller and stronger than us humans, but this boy was average for a human, so he was definitely weaker than most lycans.
“Have you informed anyone of the raid?” I pointed my gun slightly at the desk full of highly constructed technology, and sighed when his head shook rapidly.
“No, no. I was trying to find out what I was supposed to do. It’s only my second day this week.” His words were rushed, and his voice shaky as he conveyed his actions to me, I had no doubt in my mind
that he spoke the truth.
It was then, while I looked at the boy in front of me, that I realized, I really didn’t think this plan through at all.
Something like this was simply the first battle of the inevitable war, innocent people from both sides
were bound to get caught in the cross fire, I always knew that. However after the death of my mom, I
thought I wouldn’t care. I assumed it was a price I was willing to pay, my mom was collateral damage in the kings eyes, so why shouldn’t his innocents be the same in mine?
Only now, as I looked at the crying lad in front of me, I knew, In that moment. I was no better than the
king. I couldn’t harm anyone who didn’t pose a threat. I was human, I needed to act it.
“Move out of the way!” I demanded quickly as I cocked my gun and aimed with intent to shoot. He quickly began to cower on the floor, as I fired four bullets into the electrical system, without so much as a second thought. Smoke quickly rose out of it, before a handful of small bangs, and sparks shot out
from it causing both me and the guy with me to jump slightly.
“I think we need to get out…” The lads voice held nothing but uncertainty as the table of technology
continued to smoke. He was definitely right, we needed to leave. The thing was without a doubt going to
blow up.
“Yeah… we need to get out, like now.” He scrambled to the door and the pair of us jumped out, landing on our stomachs just as the explosion happened. My own arms covered the back of my head as debris
zoomed over me. A few tiny scratches landed on the back of my hands but overall I was ok.
I quickly turned to the lad to make sure that he too was unscathed, his wide eyes turned to me as shock quickly took over his boyish features, he was a little scratched up like me but on the whole he was ok.
“You didn’t shoot me!?” His tone was more surprised than anything else while I quickly glanced at what

was left of the currently burning shack we’d just exited.
“I’m not here to kill innocent people, lycan or otherwise.” He frowned quickly at me and opened his mouth to respond to my comment, however his words never left his lips because his eyes grew wide as they darted away from my face to glance behind me.
I didn’t even have the chance to blink before the boy was shifting and jumping over my laid down body, while I watched the small wolf collide with a larger one and felt a splatter of blood hit my face at the force of their collision.
A loud whimper came from the lad who was flung to the side painfully, I even unconsciously let out a wince as his furry body made contact with the ground a foot away from where he started.
