Chapter 94: Rich and Powerful Drystan's POV My jaw just fell open when I saw the vast scenery in front of us. I shouldn't have judged the Shadowfang Pack too early. The sprawling cottages earlier had deceived us into thinking that the Shadowfang Pack would be nothing like I had expected. The Shadowfang Pack is a highly secretive and isolated community that resides deep within the treacherous Shadowfang mountains, which are famous for their lore and historical landmarks.
It was said that the Shadowfang mountains protected the Shadowfang Pack. Many rogues and Packs had tried to colonize or attack them before, but because of their tall mountains, all their exploits only led to a failure.
The Shadowfang mountains are two tall triangular mountains that are glued together like a curved wall, concaving the Pack with a beautiful silver lake in the middle.
The view is breathtaking, not to mention the sprawling subterranean city carved directly into the mountainside.
I can't imagine what they would look like at night with all the lights open. It must look like stars had fallen off from the sky.

It's like looking at a water puzzle. It's so relaxing to trace the water as it flows from different sections before mixing together in the lake.
As my gaze fell to the lake, I stared at the boats of different sizes floating on the water as the members of the Shadowfang Pack earned their living by fishing.
The Shadowfang Pack is like paradise. I didn't expect such a place to exist in this world.
The Shadowfang Pack is lucky to have discovered this place and settled here first. They have a breathtaking view, a lake filled with sea creatures, healthy gardens that could grow even the rarest and most delicate herbs, and they also have the Luminite. There's nothing that they don't have. It's really no wonder why they are closing themselves off from the rest of us and refusing to partner with other Packs.
The three of us continued our walk. Nova and I ambled along the winding paths, our steps light and unhurried. We didn't feel tired as we walked. We are too caught up in our surroundings, admiring everything that we see.
We finally arrived at the heart of the Shadowfang Pack, where their medical complex lies, a sprawling network of state-of-the-art treatment facilities, research laboratories, and training centers for their Pack's renowned physicians and medical scientists.
Nova's eyes sparkled with wonder as her gaze drank in the technology we had never seen before. We felt like people from the Stone Age era because we were so ignorant of the cutting-edge technology that they used.
"I can't believe a place like this exists," Nova breathed, her voice hushed in reverence. "It's like stepping into another world." Indeed, the place that cout of a science fiction movie that I was expecting is finally in front of me.
I felt out of place as people dressed in the suniforms swarmed around the place, just going on with their day to do their jobs.
Just by looking at them, I knew they were researchers and physicians, the smart guys who developed the Shadowfang Pack way ahead of us.
All of them gave us strange looks as they walked since our casual outfits inside their very modern and minimalist room really made us stand out.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNova and I had no tto change our clothes and make ourselves look presentable. Astrid's tis running. We had to transfer her to the Shadowfang Pack as soon as possible.
"Where is Alpha Theron?" I asked as I stepped forward, leaning closer to Beta Alek to ask him my question in a hushed voice to avoid getting more unnecessary attention.
I thought he would be leading us to the Packhouse or someplace where their Alpha stays, but clearly, this isn't their Packhouse. This is ssort of a laboratory.
Beta Alek stopped and turned on his heel to face me. "I'm sorry, Alpha Drystan. There had been a change of plans. Alpha Theron contactedthrough our Pack link and orderedto bring you to our medical laboratory instead so you won't have to leave Astrid. He said he would cto visit you here to personally talk to you, so I didn't bother to explain things to you." I nodded my head in understanding. "Alpha Theron really cares and thinks about us. I will always remember this kindness you have shown us."
Beta Alek just looked at me, but he didn't speak. I couldn't help but stare into his eyes, which were deep in thought. He must be wondering why his Alpha is giving us face. Not only did he break their long reputation of ignoring other Packs, but he also allowed us to enter their Pack and ordered his Beta, the person next to him in power to escort us.
The medicines and technologies they have never shown to anyone are also being shown to us. Not only that, but they are also allowing someone outside their Pack to use it. "Good," Beta Alek suddenly replied after a long pause. There were no reminders, no threats made. What could a small Pack on the brink of bankruptcy could do to them?
"Miss Astrid was already checked by our best physician," Beta Alek continued to speak as we continued our walk through the hallways. "Our physician will explain her condition to you Beta Alek explained to us as he pushed a door open. The door that leads to Astrid's moment. X
