Chapter 14: Black jacket man

At the bar door stood a guy in his late twenties, he was tapping away at something on his phone as he walked into the bar. He was dressed with the same black jacket Zane had worn with a wolf's drawing on the back.
To every other person seeing him, his attention was solely on his phone. But I knew even if Ben didn't that he was checking us out.
"Let's get outta here." Ben said with great fear.
"Chill man." I replied. "Don't be such a woman. I mean, how'd he try to confront us when we're not the only people here and it's still daytime?"
"I know. You're very right." Ben said. "But how are we going to go home when it's time? Are we seriously gonna stay here 'till he leaves?"
"I don't know how we're going to leave." I replied. "But just stay cool and enjoy the moment. Let's see if the coward will have the courage to create a scene here."
The man wearing black paused and stared hard at me and Ben like he clearly heard what I said. But I put on a strong and serious face like I didn't notice. Luca started growling in my body like it was very angry, I tried to shut it down by asking what the problem was but it didn't reply. I tightened my lips in my mouth as I noticed that my fangs were gradually growing.
The black jacket man suddenly started walking to our table and Ben almost pee on his pants with the terrifying look on his face. I looked at him and shaked my head in irritation. Was he such a woman that he couldn't figure the black jacket man will never cause a scene here?
Suddenly, I heard a deep voice in my head. "If you're really what legend says you are, why not come out of the bar let's talk?" I looked at the chair where the black jacket man sat and realised that he'd mind linked me. "How did he do that?" I asked my wolf when it finally got quiet.
"Just say anything you want to say to him and look at his direction. He'll get the message if you do that. " Luca replied.
I tried the process while closing my eyes before I opened it and looked at the man. His expression turned sour and angry like he'd really gotten my mind link of "Why not come and let us talk in the bar instead, Coward?"
Ben looked at me then at the man before he asked, "What's happening?"
"Oh!" I replied. "I just talked to the black jacket man through my mind and I insulted him."
"Wow!" Ben exclaimed. "You can mind link?" He asked before he got back his senses and remembered something. "Wait, what did you say? You insulted him!"
I ignored Ben's question as I was busy enjoying myself. I took a sip of my drink but immediately dropped the glass when I heard the second mind link which said, "Yes. I'm a coward, my name's not on everybody's lips in the wolf world, though. But what about you? Your parents were killed in war and you're here drinking a non-alcoholic beverage like the coward you're accusing me of being!"
I got up from the chair in rage. My fangs came out longer than ever as I pushed the chair I sat on backwards before I walked in the direction of black jacket man.
Ben's face was pale and looked exactly like Mr Parkers' had been when he first saw my fangs. He tried to hold me down by calling my name severally but I didn't hear him. All I saw and heard was my enemy whose facial features had turned devilish like he'd expected me to burn up when he mentioned my parents.
The first thing I did when I reached him was to put a blow on his face. I was about to land another blow when a sharp object pierced my face.
Many people screamed and ran out of the bar in fear when the fight started, and some of them rushed to us with the intention of separating us but they all stopped when they saw my fangs and the claws that came out of black jacket man's hand.
Everybody's mouth got opened in awe and even the few people that were recording my fight with black jacket man couldn't hold their phones as their hands were shaking from fear.
He was winning the fight against me mostly because I'd always been a peaceful person who hasn't had a real fight before. I felt the pain on my face as blood dripped out of it, and at the time black jacket man landed a blow on my already injured face, I fell to the ground in an unconscious state.

I saw myself in a room filled with electric lights of different colours and sizes. Walking quietly around the room and wondering how the hell I got here, I met a white wolf. It looked peaceful the way it rested on a corner in the room which was floored with snow.
My eyes darted in its socket as I tried really hard to look into the white wolf's eyes. It was sparking blue and in a second, I knew that it was the same one which saved me and Ben from the black werewolves the other day.
I walked to the white wolf to touch it, to feel its soft body and fur on my hands. But it immediately shifted to a male human right in my presence and muttered, "I'm your guardian."

I woke up to the sounds of drip fixed on my arm. My eyes still closed slightly as I discovered that I've had another dream. *Was I related to Joseph the dreamer?* I asked myself while smiling; knowing that this was the best dream out of all the ones I've had. The only little regret I have was that I wasn't able to see the face of my guardian in the dream. I told myself it's okay since I'm still going to meet him physically, one day.
Then reality hit me. I wasn't at home, I stared at the cloth I wore and discovered it had the badge of "Godswill's Hospital".
