zombies book-1 -Wyatt Lykensen

chapter seven

I smiled widely at Zed as he went over to his father.

"You gotta stop the demolition, Dad." Zed told his father.

"I know how hard you worked to get this job, but if it's going to hurt the werewolves, you have to stop it."

Zevon nodded before biting his lip.

"You're right. And Addison's right." He turned his worker.

"Shut it down. Stop the demolition. Tomorrow, when it's safe, we'll find what you're looking for but right now, you can all go home."

Everyone cheered as Bree and I high fived.

We made our way out of the building as I played with my ring.

"Hey." Zed came beside us.

"We did it, we stopped the demo!" We laughed.

"What's wrong?" Addison asked as she saw Zed's face.

"Addison." We stopped.

"I'm gonna lose the election, which means I can't take you to prawn." Zed replied.

"That's okay, Zed. We cannot go to the prawn together." Addison tapped his shoulder.

Zed looked at the wolves and then reached into his pocket, taking out the moonstone.

"He found it!" Addison laughed before hugging Zed.

"Thank you." She pulled away.

"Are you okay?"

"I took it." He said as Bree and I shared a look.

"I stole it when you weren't looking." Addison looked down.

"I thought I lost it. I questioned myself."

"Addison, I'm sorry. I was afraid that if you turned into a wolf, I'd lose you." Zed replied.

"You don't get to make that choice for me!" Addison snapped at him.

"But a werewolf?!" Zed asked.

"I finally find where I belong and you try to steal that from me? Why would I ever go to the prawn with you after what you did!"

Addison walked away before stopping.

She put the necklace on before turning hold her arms up as to show claws but she stayed her usual self.

"Am I?" She asked hopefully.

Bree sighed grabbing her hand.

"You're beautiful, Addie... but the same beautiful that you've always been." Bree replied.

"She's not a werewolf." Wyatt said.

Addison took off the necklace.

"I might not be, but maybe Malia is." Addison said.

She came over.

"Ads, what're you?" I didn't get to finish my answer as she clipped the necklace around my neck.

I gasped as the moonstone lite up as I felt my teeth shift and my nails grow.

"ADDISON WHAT DID YOU DO?!" I yelled stepping back.

"You're the Great Alpha! You have a place!" She exclaimed.

"That was not your decision to make! You know what you just did?!" I asked.

"My parents are going to cut me off and disown me. They hunt people like them and Zed. You just ruined my life. How am I supposed to forgive you." I asked tears in my eyes.

"Malia, I'm sorry!"

"You should be." I snapped.

"Oh my gosh, boss, boss! We got a problem." I turned.

"What?"

"The remote shorted out and now the detonation timers running."

"Well, shut it off." Zevon said.

"I can't!"

"No! No!" We all ran over to Seabrook power.

We stopped as it lite up before crumbling to the ground.

"What have they done?" Willa asked.

Our moonstone lite up green, as all the wolves started coughing.

"Malia." Addison came over to me.

"I'm sorry... we should get you home." I shook my head.

"No. I'm their alpha." I looked at Wyatt.

"I should stay with them." She nodded.

Addison dropped off somethings for me, as I gave the weaken werewolves blankets.

"Thank you, Great Alpha." I nodded before climbing up to the look out.

I sighed before sitting down and held my head in my hands.

"Hey." I looked up to see Wyatt.

"Hey." I said.

Wyatt sat down beside me as he slipped his hand into mine.

"I'm sorry for how this all turned out, I was too caught up on finding the great Alpha. I didn't think about their lives." Wyatt replied.

"It's alright, all my life people teased me about my hair and I finally forgot about it." I said.

"Is it true, that your parents will hate you if they find out that you're a werewolf?" Wyatt asked.

"All my life, they told me about how werewolves, zombies, vampires etc. Were evil monsters that we had to kill... I asked them what would happen if I became one of them, they couldn't answer cause they had a case." I said.

We sat in silence for a moment before I looked down at our hands.

"You know, I was jealous when you were close with Addison... I might have a small crush on you." I cringed.

"Small?"

"Okay, huge." We laughed.

His pointer finger went underneath my chin as I turned to look at him.

"I like you too." He replied before pressing his lips on mine.

I kissed back than we slowly pulled away.

"Malia. Would you maybe be my girlfriend?" I smiled.

"I would love too." I said before giving him another kiss.
