Just after Kate threatens Kira and she ran away. Kate moved closer to where Aaron and the other guy were and found them in their human form.
Their body was not looking good. The wolfsbane is acidic to their skin and it's eating up their skins. The red and bumpy patches on their skins were irritating.
"Wow, that doesn't look good on you" Kate retorted as she move closer.
Aaron and the other guy were grunting and breathing heavily where they are, and were just glaring at her.
"I could leave you like this and leave but I know that's not a good idea"
"You will heal up and later come back to haunt me and I can't have that" she said pulling out the silver knife.
"Maybe in your next life, you will learn how to respect everyone" she added and was about to stab him when she heard a twig snapped.
She turned to look around but couldn't see anyone but she knew she's someone is around.
Out of nowhere a wolf attacked her and before she could defend herself, the wolf already got to her.
The wolf scratched her back and she cried out in pain, she decided she's not going down easily and she kick wolf on the face.
She was able to grab the knife and when the wolf attacked again, she tried to stab it but the wolf dodged it.
Kate was able to cut the wolf on the face and in the act the knife fell off from her hand. She was now weaponless before the wolf that was growling fiercely at her.
Kate knew immediately that she now stand no chance against the wolf, her only option right now is to run or she will be killed.
Without waiting much longer, she turned around and started running away. The wolf started running after her as well.
She wasn't fast enough because the wolf was getting closer. When the wolf got close to her, it jumps to catch her but Kate was able to move away.
Kate keeps running until she couldn't run anymore when she got to a cliff and she have no choice but to stop.
She turned back and sees the wolf gritting at her. The wolf made an attempt to scare her which turned out to be successful.
Kate got scared and she loses her balance twisting her ankle at the process. She tripped off the cliff and she fell off screaming aloud.
The turned back to it's human form and turned out to be Kira. She moved to the edge of the cliff and look down and she saw Kate body on the ground.
She could see blood hosing out of her head and she was satisfied. She returned to where her pack is and realized they are already healing and tried to help them.
Aaron saw her coming and he smiled happily and said to her. "I knew you'll come back for us"
"I can never abandon you. You're part of my pack and I'll never do that" Kira replied.
"Even if I returned back to the camp, it is an embarrassing situation"
"She's just an ordinary human and she killed three of us, that alone is embarrassing enough"
"I don't know how I can face the alpha about this" Kira said feeling ashamed of herself.
"Hey, hey look at me" Aaron said cupping her face in his hands.
"Don't beat yourself up on this okay?, none of these is your fault"
"She took us by surprise, we never intended to kill her but she had other motives"
"She knew who we are and everything about us. She was ready for us"
"We walked blindly into her trap and that was how she got us" Aaron said trying to make her feel better.
"That still doesn't change anything. We are the predator and she was supposed to be the prey but things went the other way around" Kira said again.
"None of us could have done anything in situation like that. Obviously, she was prepared for us but we weren't and that gave her the advantage"
"You did everything you could, Okay? I'm sure the alpha will understand" The other guy replied.
"What about her?" Aaron asked.
"She's dead. She fell off the cliff" Kira replied as she helped them up to their feet.
"That's good then. We just have to explain some things to the Alpha but leave some details. Hopefully he'll understand" Aaron said groaning as they move.
"You guys stay here and rest. I'll go look for a car, I'll be right back" Kira said as they rest against the tree and turn to leave.
"Be careful and please hurry up. It will be dark very soon and we need to get out of this place" Aaron said as she left.

(Few Hours Later)
.
Evan sat down alone as he watched everyone moving around preparing for the ceremony that will begin in an hour time.
Since his father left on an urgent mission, he has no one to talk to so he had no choice but to sit down alone and watch.
Not long he saw a girl coming towards him smiling and he found it weird because he doesn't know the girl.
He recognizes the girl to be one of the first-timers but this is definitely not her first time in this place.
"Hi! I'm Samantha. Sam for short" The girl said to him smiling widely.
"Hi, I'm Evan" Evan replied trying to as cool as he can be.
"Nice to meet you Evan. Why are you sitting here alone?" she asked being friendly.
"Well, I'm new here and I don't know anyone in this place" he replied and she smiled warmly.
"That shouldn't be a problem. You see that black guy over there?" she said pointing at a guy talking to a group of teens.
"Yeah" Evan replied affirmatively.
"He's a first-timer too and this is his first time being in the place" Sam replied.
"So if you don't mind, why don't you come and hang out with us and get to know each other better before the ceremony starts.
"Or you can just sit here alone" she added.
"Alright then" Evan replied and he followed her to their midst.
.
They are six in number; there are four boys and two girls. Evan introduced himself to them and they welcomed him happily in their midst.
Evan was surprised how they treated themselves with love.
The treated themselves like a family would and he began to like the place and everything about it.
He also learned a few more things about being a werewolf. Even though they are all first-timers, most of them knew some things he didn't know.
For the first-time he was angry at his parent for not telling him sooner or having any idea about his origin.
"My dad told me the transformation is very painful, especially for first-timers" Evan said for the first time.
"Actually it's extremely painful but very well prepared for it" Sam said confidently.
"Way to go girl. I trust you" the other girl said as they high-five.
"I wish my dad had told me this for a very long time and I would've been more prepared" Evan said.
"He just told just a few weeks ago" He added.
"Well that's because boys do have a strong chance of surviving the transformation than girls" one the girls Fred said.
"I'm not most girls, I'm stronger than some boys and you inclusive" Sam said boastfully and everyone laughed.
"You wish" Fred retorted.
"I don't know how you guys can laugh in situation like this. I don't know how you all can be Okay and so calm with any of these" Daniel, the only one among us wearing a glasses.
His look says a lot about him and I don't need to be told before I'll know that he's a nerd.
"According to what I've gathered so far, there's a chance that we can die in the coming hours" he added.
"It's alright Daniel. There's nothing to be scared of, we will all pass this process" Fred assured.
.
We continue talking until among ourselves when suddenly a car drove in with speed and we all turned to the car.
The car stopped and parked and some people move closer to the car then someone came down from the car.
I couldn't see the person clearer so draw closer and I realized it's a girl and the person turned out to be Kira.
"Kira?" I muttered to myself.
"You know Kira?" Sam asked looking at me and I realized I must've said it out loud.
"What is she doing here?" I asked angrily.
"She's one of us. Be careful with her, she's strong and dangerous. She and her entire pack" Sam replied.
Evan realized something was right he noticed people checking the car and started crying including Kira.
Evan tried to see what's going on. So he took another direction trying to avoid Kira as much as possible.
Unfortunately for him, he didn't know Aaron was at the other side. Immediately Aaron spotted him, he stood up angrily and charged at him angrily.
"YOU BASTARD" Aaron shouted as he jumped up high and punched him hard on the face and Evan fell to the ground.
