"Are you sure about this?" Moses asked.
"Of course, I'm sure. You know how mother was at keeping secrets. Like how she never told anyone what happened when she met the Primordial beast and stuff like that?"
Moses nodded his head, "Yes! You are right. Your mother was always the type to keep secrets from the rest of the world. Even from me, and i believe that I was even closer to her than the previous Alpha!"
Victor nodded.
"But in that case, why did you not bring up the existence of this master a long time ago?" Moses asked.
"Well," victor scratched the back of his head as he gave a shy laugh, "Come on Moses, even I, am allowed to keep secrets you know. I just did not want anyone to know as I had reserved this as a backup plan."
Moses raised a brow at this reaction. He knew Victor too well, after all, he had taken care of the lad from when he was still a baby.
Some might say that he knew Victor almost as well as Victor's own mother did.
"And this master, lives just outside the city?"
Victor nodded.
Moses stared at him for a while, however, he sighed.
"If you say so confident and sure of the capabilities of this so-called master, then I have no opposition against it. I'll choose to trust you."
"Good!" Victor nodded, "Then does that mean that you will accept my proposal and enter Hibernation to heal your wounds?"
Moses nodded.
"Okay! come, let me take you back to your quarters."
Moses nodded and allowed Victor to help him back.
Immediately Victor helped Moses back to his quarters, Victor went back home.
Although being a child of the Alpha, Victor did not live in a big luxurious apartment like Curtin and the others did.
Rather, he lived in his mother's house. It was a simple cottage that had enough room for two people to live comfortably and in peace.
Even after his body had been chosen by the Alpha to become one of his women, she still insisted on her simple life, instead of moving to the Palace.
She was the kind of woman that could find peace in the smallest of things and was very humble indeed.
He only took items he thought were essential, like rations that would last a week, some Branded Marked Human skin as it was the currency used in the outside world, and a small pocket knife. This knife was really special. After all, it was once one of his mother's claws.
Unlike most in the Pack, she had been blessed with the longest and strongest claws ever seen.
Victor's fingers ran across the blade. Unlike many his age, he had not wolfed out. For the current plans that he had, he would be needing protection. He couldn't help but sigh a bit, "Protect and lead your son on the right path mother."
Placing the knife at his side, and the small bag he had packed over his neck, he proceeded to leave the cottage.
As he did, he did not notice that just at a corner of the house, Moses was hidden, watching him carefully.
With a hood over his head, he made his way to the Main gate.
He was going to exit the city walls.
It was said that it was an easier feat for a camel to pass through the Eye of a needle than it was for an outsider to enter into the city of milk and honey.
However, exiting the city was an entirely different matter.
Then again, there was nearly no one ever leaving the city.
After all, who would Willing leave paradise on their own accord.
Unless it was Merchants or the like that had business with the outside world, and even those were quite few in number.
After all, The City of Milk and Honey was very self-sufficient. It provided its own food, clothes etcetera for its citizens. It was literally paradise on earth.
And was truly one of the last places that mankind truly had freedom.
Victor, hiding his identity under his hoody, made his way through the gates.
This action of his made Moses frown.
His instincts told him that something was not right. It was not that Victor left the city that bothered him. It was because he knew Victor well. He could immediately tell that the young boy was running away.
Just as Victor was passing through the gates, there was suddenly a commotion up ahead.
It was the Guards screaming that a demon had appeared.
This naturally roused people's Curiosity and everyone wanted to know what was going on.
Everyone, including Moses. After all, he was a guard.
However, Victor did not care about this.
His goal was something else. He was running away.
Now, there was even a good distraction that could make maneuvering easier.
Without a care for what was happening, he walked past a person that would essentially change fate.
Because of the matter at hand, Victor only looked at the passerby briefly. However, he couldn't help but shiver a little.
It was like the blood in his veins suddenly boiled, alerting him that something of great relevance was by his side.
A mixture of emotions flowed from within him. First was the fact that the Passerby, even though was obviously a man, just so happened to be very beautiful. It was like his skin was made of that slight glow that reflected from Sapphire.
However, he shook his head and continued walking. Up ahead, there were Vessels. Most of them were pirate Ships engaging in trade.
Whether it was the guards or the homeless people around, living in dilapidated homes, everybody was starting to flock around the fight between the Demon and the Guards.
Victor made his way to one of the Vessels. His plan was Simple. He was going to board the Vessel and runaway.
He took one last look at the city walls, "Don't be angry with me when you wake up Moses. If I don't leave, they will kill you like they did the others."
He turned about and proceeded forward onto the ship.
Boarding Pirate ships was not all that difficult. The trick was either to pay, or sneak onboard.
He walked into the Gangway of the Vessel. Before the pirates even stopped him, he flashed the Branded Human marked skins in his possession.
Just as he was about to hand it over to the pirate before him, it happened.
All of a sudden, there was a loud GROWL in the distance.
This growl was so loud and deafening that it made those that were weak minded instantly fall on their knees.
Some of them hugged their legs as they peed their pants.
Everyone turned in the direction from which the growl had come...
