Draeko was not able to move; still, he could not comprehend yet what just happened. He was so shocked. Grazziena just disappeared when that flashing ray of light subsided and suddenly a sluggish, yellowish, dirty, full of lice, ugly werewolf appeared in front of him; looking into his eyes intently while wiggling its tail.
Draeko’s knees weakened. “Where is my Grazziena?” he asked and became frantic, thinking that something wrong happened to Grazziena. "What did this wolf do to my Grazziena?" he thought with fear.
Grazziena in her wolf form, who is now Grella, moved and kick gently her clothes which have been ripped off when she shifted. She was trying to let Draeko understand that she is Grazziena.
Draeko is still standing, looking at the wolf in front of him. Suddenly, something hit his mind and more fears crept through his face. With such in mind, his anger toward the wolf grew. He looked at the wolf with fiery in his eyes and Grazziena and Grella saw everything.
Grazziena’s and Grella’s hope disappeared upon seeing the expression of Draeko. Grazziena's heart automatically bleeds, surmising what Draeko's reaction means. Seeing the open window; Grella jumped outside of the window and ran with her heart growling in pain.
As if Draeko has been awakened, he called on to Grazziena and ran outside looking for the wolf. Realization hits Draeko. The wolf did not kill or eat Grazziena; rather Grazziena transformed into that wolf! That was the truth about Grazziena that she wanted to let him know. That was the truth about Grazziena that Lumaro said to him when he visited him in his office this morning. Grazziena is not a full human; she is a She-Wolf! Now, he understands everything.
Draeko ran fast as he saw the wolf running towards their mansion’s gate. The guard was not at the gate and Draeko saw the yellowish wolf jump high into the fence of his mansion.
Quickly, Draeko opened the gate and searched for the wolf. He looked around and to his shock; he saw Lumaro outside of their gate, standing and smirking, and then like that of Grazziena, a flashing ray of light scattered around the body of Lumaro, then thereafter he disappeared. When Draeko looked again, he saw a magnificent golden big wolf looking at him from a distance, with eyes, blazing.
Draeko has been frozen; too astounded with everything that he had witnessed for tonight. Lumaro and Grazziena are of the same species of creature. They are werewolves!
When the magnificent Golden big wolf ran and chased the yellowish ugly wolf; Draeko suddenly came back to his senses. He also ran and chased the Golden wolf to protect his Grazziena, which he knows was the yellowish, ugly wolf that the Golden wolf had been chasing.
Draeko got so tired of running. He could not catch up with the two wolves because they were so fast. All of a sudden; the two werewolves just both disappeared and Draeko was left on the street alone, almost gasping for breath.

The guard who came back after peeing, saw his Boss running outside and onto the street as if chasing some thieves. Without thinking more, the guard got his motorbike and readied his gun. He followed Governor Draeko, ready to defend him.
“Governor, what happened? Apology, I just peed, and then I saw you running. Did thieves enter the mansion? Where are they?” The guard asked when he saw Governor Draeko in the street. He looked around but he saw no one other than Governor Draeko.
Draeko shook his head, “They are gone; they just disappeared.”
“Governor, let us get out of her, they might come back and attack us. Come, ride at the back of my motorcycle, Boss.” The guard said to which Governor Draeko listened and followed. He jumped on the motorbike and the guard sped off fast.
At that moment, Grazziena, who was still under the wolf form of Grella and Lumaro in his wolf form, Lumao too, already reached the middle part of the forest.
They continued to run until they reached the house of Grazziena’s parents. Grazziena saw that her window was left open by her parents. She jumped inside and Lumaro followed.
Lumaro shifted into his human form and closed the window of Grazziena’s room, while Grazziena, who was still in her wolf form, Grella, crawled down the bed and stayed there. Unlike Lumaro, she has no capability to shift anytime she wanted. She is under the control of the curse of Thutaara.
"Grazziena, I will not leave you here. I will stay," Lumaro said as he decided to stay whether Grazziena likes it or not. He slept on the bed of Grazziena and felt a bit of triumph for tonight.
“Tomorrow is another day; the day I was waiting for,” Lumaro murmured before he drifted into sleep.
Inside the mansion, Draeko slowly walked toward the master’s bedroom. He gathered Grazziena’s torn clothing into his hands and sat on the bed, feeling so tired, worried, and in pain.
Draeko hugged Grazziena’s clothes and then just a few moments later, he was not able to control himself; he cried within the comforts of the four walls of his mansion’s master’s bedroom, calling Grazziena’s name.
