Edd goes to the woods and informs the other wolves that Klaus has taken his wife and the punishment is death, the wolves roar in anger, transform back in their human forms and lay in ambush for Klaus. Klaus arrives with Laura unknowingly and is attacked and beaten to pulp, the pressing anger in him tries to bring out the demon in him but he tries to suppress it in front of his woman, not until Edd scratches his face with his claws and Laura shrinks in fear, Klaus's eyes turns yellowish immediately and he transform to his werewolf self and beat the other pack to pulp to the surprise of the werewolves. Klaus has never been this strong to the extent of scaring away Edd and his crew, they run away in fear leaving an angry Klaus with a scared Laura, Laura tries to run away but Klaus calls her back and explains all about him to her, he tells her he is half human and half wolf, he makes a thousand promises to her and promises to always protect her and never leave her side, Laura says nothing to him. Klaus, thinking that Laura might Still be angry with him for not telling her about himself from the start proceeds to kneel in front of her to ask for forgiveness, just as he puts a kneel down, Laura holds him up and gives him a deep kiss, other romance follow and the duo end up making love.

Many months have passed, Laura discovers she will be having Klaus's baby, she breaks the news to him and Edd overhears, he vows to kill both mother and baby before Laura, even think of putting to birth. Edd begins to watch Laura closely, and makes plans to abduct her. Late at night one day, Laura wakes up to use the bathroom when she hears a loud thud from outside, she goes out and meets Edd and his pack, she is captured before she is opportune to say even a word. Edd tells her he wants to find out for himself whether she is pregnant and soon, he takes her to a sorceress who tells him that Laura is indeed pregnant but cannot have the baby because she will die untimely. Edd asks why and he is told that the blood if the wolves do not match Laura's blood. He adds that Laura is not to be in a romantic relationship with a wolf as it endangers her life. The only thing they can do to keep her alive is drain out all the blood in her and refill her back with the blood of a wolf. Edd records all that the sorceress has said and sends the clip to Klaus. A heartbroken Klaus rushes over to the venue to see that Edd has already drained out Laura's blood and refilled with his, indicating that Laura can only be in a romantic relationship with Edd. Klaus moves closer to Laura's body which seems lifeless, he touches her hands and she opens her eyes, tears stream down her cheeks, she holds Klause by his hands and screams out loud 'DRAIN ME'. Her hand drops. Before Klaus would say a thing, Edd charges towards him and asks him to leave, he tells him to go far away and never come back lest he endangers the life of his lover(Laura).

However, this marks the beginning of a new era for Edd and Laura, Edd begins to make known his motive to Laura, he brings out the dark side of him and inflicts pains on her, she is like a hostage to him, the source of his strength, he is sure that he would become the Alpha with Laura by his side. Edd's blood was beginning to drain Laura both physically and mentally, she has now become an object of practicality to Edd. He uses her like a lab mouse kept for practicals, he injects many chemicals in her body and keeps torturing her to boost his inner strength. Not only did Edd torture Laura, but also changes his attitude towards the other pack of werewolves. He was beginning to boss them around, give them tedious jobs with no rewards, his pride seems to be growing faster than the magic beanstalk we all heard of.

The pack gathers themselves in the woods and laid their complaints on how Edd's sudden change in character is beginning to hurt them but could not find any solution or ray of hope to their problems. Few days gone, the sorceress pays Edd a visit to tell him of a disturbing encounter she had in her dream; she reveals a lot of things to him including Laura's secret. She tells him Laura has a veto power in her which can boost his physical strength and make him the Alpha, the zeta and the primordial. She includes that he(Edd), must ensure that he drains all of Laura's blood every month and refills her with his. Edd becomes the happiest man on earth, all he thinks of is how to become as strong and as brave as a Lycan and undefeatable as a zeta. He sits and stirs in thin air, his face filled with smiles, he thinks of Klaus and wonders what he is up to and how on earth Klaus will defeat him when he(Edd), has a weapon(Laura) all to himself. Edd decides to use Laura to make himself a million times stronger. He drains her powers to empower himself, every passing day, he will drain all the fluid in her and refill with his.

Few years later, an angry Klaus returns to take his rightful position as the Alpha and take his lady with him,he comes back stronger and more determined, he incidentally meets Edd fighting a group of fierce wolves, he is surprised and wonders how possible it is for Edd to beat a pack of fierce looking wolves with no single scratch on him. 'Edd has never been this strong' he says to himself and immediately figures out that something's wrong somewhere. Seeing the situation, he acknowledges the fact that he is no match for Edd now, with what he has just seen, he needs to train himself more to be able to defeat Edd. Klaus meets the other pack of frustrated wolves and listens to their grievances, he assures them that things will be better and shares words of encouragement. He tells them he will be back to fight for them and with them, he makes them promise to work with him in harmony. At first they are scared but 'Harry', Edd's most trusted wolf speaks up first and assures Klause that he would work with him. Other wolves seeing how brave Harry is, accept to train and work with Klaus against Edd. They realize it's time to defeat Edd and put him in his rightful position. He was doing a lot of harm to them on the South side, he has made the environment inconducive for them to live in.

Edd on the other hand continues to inflict pains and torture on the pack, his attitude seems to be getting worse by the day, the stronger he gets, the more hardened his heart. The pack keep to their pact and plan by meeting to have a hearty conversation on the latest development of their once trusted friend and try to get him sympathize with them but all effort proves abortive.

Klaus has always spent his life training in the jungle and fighting animals in the wood to one day become an Alpha, the situation at hand gives him the zeal to achieve all he has ever wanted, he trains to fight for justice and freedom for the wolves, to get his deserved Applaud as the Alpha and most importantly to free his lady from the bandage of his self-centered brother. He keeps striving and looking forward to setting his lover free and delivering her from the hands of a demon like Edd. Even though it seems impossible, Klaus isn't ready to settle for the bare minimum.

Klaus finally finds his way to his lover's room,he realizes that she has lost a lot of weight, she must have been through a lot he says to himself and nods faintly. He moves closer to her and touches her hands, she shrinks in fear as she opens her eyes. Klaus expects a warm welcome but Laura screams in fear as though she has just seen the devil putting on a red beret.
