My Werewolf System

Chapter 937 The Past Of The Dem Family

The words spoken from Dean’s mouth had repeated in Gary’s head, and with that single phrase, it instantly caught his attention. It proved that his father knew a lot about what was going on, and probably was the only person who could give them answers.

Although many knew the truth about Gary being a Werewolf and the matters revolving around it, not everyone knew about the system he had in place. The system that told him what to do, how to get stronger, and his way of helping others when being far away from them as well.

Hearing these words, it was then that Tom had decided to come closer and sit nearby as well. He had been fascinated by Gary’s true origin for a while, even handing him an object that might have very well belonged to them.

Altered and Werewolves were different, and his curious mind wanted to know more.

“So you do know a lot then,” Gary said. “Does this mean you were involved in it, was this not just something that happened by accident?”

Gary didn’t know whether to be angry or pleased. At the beginning, being a werewolf was tough. It was hard, especially with controlling his bloodlust urges. As time went on, though, it was his only way he was able to take out the Underdogs, protect his family, and get Slough to the state that he was in now.

In some ways, his dream of becoming an Altered was somewhat granted.

“I will explain from the beginning, and then maybe you will all understand how the Underdogs, the Phoenix Gang, NIRV, and Lupus are all involved in this,” Dean stated.

Now Kai, and nearly everyone who was in the room was really interested. All of the names mentioned were large names, and the Underdog gang was the center of it all.

“Very well, explain everything, from the beginning and don’t miss out a single detail,” Gary replied, looking him right in the eye.

Dean let out a big sigh as he prepared himself.

“Firstly, unlike you…I was born a Werewolf, our family line, the Dem Family has always had this fact with them. Your grandfather was also just like me, and he passed on all of the knowledge forward to me.

“What would happen on a full moon, how to stop oneself from transforming. There were even special areas that were built to keep us at bay. You know of Ruin City, run by the Lupis Gang.

“That is where we were originally from, not Slough. The ruins that run in that city are based on our families’ past. If you go down there you’ll see areas that were made to stock food, areas for us to chain ourselves up on that particular day.

“I lived like that for many years, following what needed to be done.”

Gary was half surprised by this fact. He gathered that his father knowing about Werewolves meant he was one as well, but then what about him?

“I don’t understand, If you’re saying you’ve always been a Werewolf, then is that why I’m one now? I thought it was because of what was in the package that I was delivering for the Underdogs, and what does that mean for Amy, is this something that’s meant to be unlocked? And if you knew, then why didn’t you say everything to me, like grandad did to you? If you had told me things, then maybe the same with me, the same with me…”

Gary started to think back to Billy, one of the first people he had turned into a werewolf by accident. Maybe all of this could have been avoided.

Meanwhile, Kai was more interested in something else, the mention of Ruin City, where the other Alpha and Lupus gang currently were.

“I need to first give you some context about our past, the Dem family and Werewolves as a whole, and then you will start to slowly understand everything otherwise it won’t make much sense.

“Honestly, a lot of it didn’t make much sense to me either until it ended up happening. Werewolves have existed for thousands of years, and it’s the same for our family line.

“They have all needed to deal with the same set of problems as us, and through the years they realized that there were things that could never be stopped. You see our Ancestor, a man who went by the name of Jack Dem was also a strong Werewolf.

“He had joined one of the strongest kingdoms in existence fighting alongside humans, ridding the world of the threat of beasts. However, despite everything he did, not everyone had a good view of beasts.

“With their transformations, and ability to not control themselves they were seen as dangerous and some humans saw them as beasts either way. Yet, Jack managed to change a lot of their views with him and his pack, and their Werewolf group became an elite force for the humans.

“Jack’s group, our ancestor weren’t the only group of Werewolves though. In the past, there was another, a group that was sick of everything that had happened to them. Sick of the humans treating them as monsters.

“However, they didn’t hate Jack, they also saw him as someone to look up to as well because he was the strongest, something Werewolves cared for a lot, but the other group started to change.

“They started to think, why should they be the ones to suppress their nature. Perhaps the world was telling them that this was their calling, the night of the full moon was their need to feast. Whoever created them, must have created them this way for a certain purpose. Maybe humans did need to fear them because that was how things were meant to be.

“These actions had then caused a large rift between the two, and there goes a saying that has always been passed on, there can never be two Alphas.”
