ALL MY WIVES ARE BEAUTIFUL ELVES
45 Let a werewolf tell
Kan held Ellie's hand. From the options provided to him by the screen in front of him, he could do either of the two.
He could either run his hands upward to Ellie's shoulders and urge her to reveal to him what her connection with a separate gang was all about. Or he could simply ask her to take a breath and forget about it all.
"The second option comes with heavily stacked reward. However, I'm afraid I'm going to have to turn it down. The situation is one that I'd lose anyway If I pick the second option. Sometimes, people don't necessarily see you giving them space as respect or being aware of boundaries. It's important to evoke answers sometimes as that's a gesture to say you care. Also, I'm curious to know what it is that she has with this gang," Kan thought his options through.
[Excellent, I guess you do have more than boobs and ass in your head, baby] Hela said to Kan in a playful tone.
But at the moment, Kan was too focused on the issue at hand to even pay attention to the voice directly inside his head in Hela.
"It's okay, you can talk to me," Kan said as he ran his hand all the way to Ellie's shoulders. He had gone with the second option.
He noticed immediately that her gaze shifted towards his hand and then back to his eyes. Also, the system acknowledged his compliance and a message appeared.

"One added point to my charm," Kan observed.
But apart from the change effected on his profile, he also noticed a contour on Ellie's face as his hand ran on her smooth skin.
"His hands...so smooth.." Ellie thought. But could see kan's attention was fixed on her.
Kan and much like everyone else was awaiting her tale.
Ellie's breath seemed to catch in her throat as Kan's warm hand touched her shoulders. It was a simple gesture, but in that moment, it felt like a lifeline being extended to her.
She took a deep breath, her eyes locking onto his, searching for understanding. The room fell silent, and all eyes were on her, waiting for her to speak.
"It's not something I'm proud of," Ellie began, her voice carrying a heavy weight. "Before I started this gang, I was part of another group. But it wasn't like this one," she said, her eyes sweeping across the room to meet the gaze of each member, each of whom had their own story etched onto their faces.
"The gang I was in before, they were... ruthless," Ellie continued, her voice wavering slightly. "They did things that I can't even bring myself to describe. I was young and naive when I joined, thinking it was a family that would protect me."
Her grip on Kan's hand tightened as if seeking reassurance that he was still there, listening to her words without judgment.
"Things quickly changed. They forced me into roles that I never wanted, made me do things that haunt my nightmares to this day." Ellie's voice trembled with a mixture of anger and pain. "As a vixen, a role delegated to only those that were eye catching, I was expected to use my looks, to manipulate, and to deceive... I was supposed to retrieve information from rival gangs. I played the part they wanted me to, but I hated every moment of it. Along the line, I lost my innocence..no...it was snatched from me,"
She paused, her eyes brimming with tears that she quickly blinked away. "I was trapped, Kan. Trapped in a world I couldn't escape from. I did things I'm not proud of, just to survive. And then one day, I saw a chance to break free."
Ellie's gaze held a fierce determination as she looked at each of her gang members, a silent promise passing between them.
"I started this gang to give people like us a way out, a chance to rise above the darkness that holds us down. We may not have much, but we have each other."
The room was silent, the weight of Ellie's words settling over them like a heavy blanket. Kan could see the pain in her eyes, the scars that went beyond the physical. And yet, there was strength there, a strength born from surviving the darkest corners of life.
As Ellie finished speaking, the room seemed to come alive again. The riot twins exchanged a glance before giving Ellie a nod of approval. Kane patted Kan's shoulder, a gesture of camaraderie. Mendy removed his headphones, a somber look on his face.
And Jessica, who had been silently observing from her corner, finally spoke. "Ellie, we're here for you. We've got your back, no matter what."
Tears glistened in Ellie's eyes as she smiled, a genuine smile that reached her heart. In that moment, she didn't feel alone. She felt the support of her gang, her friends, and the understanding of someone who had taken the time to listen.
Kan squeezed her shoulder gently, offering a small smile of his own. "Thank you for sharing that with me, Ellie. I'm here for you too."
The weight of her past had been shared, the burden not just on Ellie's shoulders anymore. In the midst of the darkness, they had found a glimmer of light, a connection that bound them together stronger.
And as they stood there, in the heart of their hideout, they knew that they were more than just a gang.

Kan went on to further inquire,"This gang you talk about, what's their name and were those guys I saw part of the gang?" Kan asked.
Ellie sighed heavily, knowing she was going to have to go a bit deep to explain certain things. However, she maintained her composure for a minute, looking around her to see support all around her, something she had lacked all her life.
"Yes, Roman, Marhal and Sheymus, they are amongst the five enforcers of the Blood wolves, the gang I started with. Although they are not on the level of a lieutenant, they are still heavily respected because why not? They are enforcers to begin with," Ellie explained.
Kan looked at Ellie, his brows furrowed. His expression was a mix of concern and curiosity.
"I see. So these guys are responsible for all the pain you've been through and from all I have seen, you are still going through. Tell me, how would you like me to deal with them?" Kan said with a new look washing over his face. Ellie looked into his eyes and could see Kan had a burning fire in his eyes. Yet, his facial expression remained tempered.
A smile played at the corners of Ellie's lips, a combination of gratitude and uncertainty. She bit her lip for a moment before speaking, her eyes never leaving Kan's.
She could feel the heat from Kan's body, it was wild, scary, and intoxicating at the same time. It felt like it could swallow her whole. Her eyes locked onto his, a mix of fascination and caution dancing in her gaze.
"His presence, I didn't notice it before but now...this...I could get drunk in all of this!!" Ellie thought as she felt Kan's aura spiral out of control.
"I think you are leaving out a key part of the story," Jessica walked back to the scene, her expression a mixture of skepticism and curiosity.
"What's that?" The twins asked. They too weren't all too in on the story and from their attentive gaze, Kan could tell they were just finding out about this part of Ellie.
"The fact that they are werewolves in the gang," Mendy casually waltzed by saying, a wry grin on his lips. His eyes held a glint of mischief as he glanced at Ellie.
Kan raised an eyebrow, his expression a mix of surprise and realization. He turned his gaze to Ellie, waiting for her to confirm Mendy's statement.
[I mean, the name was kind of a dead giveaway, you took note, right baby?] Ellie said to Kan, a playful smirk tugging at the corner of her lips. Her eyes held a mixture of amusement and challenge as she looked at him.
"Well...not really. I mean, I thought gangs could bear different names. For example, "Scorpion Gang" doesn't mean that its members are Scorpions, right?" Kan asked in return, his expression thoughtful yet slightly embarrassed.
[I don't know where you get your reasoning from. But if there ever was a gang named "Scorpion Gang", then you should prepare to go up against scorpions,] Hela said to Kan, her tone a mix of sarcasm and amusement.
Kan after thinking for a minute or two about what Hela's reply was came to the conclusion that the world he now lived in indeed had a lot of twisted occurrences that didn't make the most sense, sometimes. He still loved the part that allowed him to get a system.
"So tell me, I'm an Elf, what's there to fear about werewolves anyway?" Kan asked, faking ignorance just to get more information. His expression was a mix of curiosity and a hint of playfulness.
"The answer to that your question would be well answered if someone who is a werewolf here answers," Kane said, staring right at one person. His expression was serious yet with a touch of challenge.
