Ashley's POV"Do you Know why we are a better species than the human species?" Allen asked as we dug into our food."No," I responded, not knowing the direction of the discussion."It's because of our agility, strength and uniqueness and that's why they are no match for us," he said and I nodded, trying to fix the direction of the discussion."I want you to build your strength," he said and my eyes widened."Yes, the army is not a joke. You are the first woman to rise to the pack army. If you don't build your strength you will be ridiculed and molested. Men only bow to power. No one will bully you when they know what you are capable of," He said."What what do you suggest?" I asked."You need more rigorous training… Thank goodness, your wolf will learn faster and you will build up faster too,""What? If I can get you right…" I said dropping my spoon to face him squarely."You want me to take additional training apart from the hell we are facing right here," I said and he nodded."You
Few months laterMoonlight Army BarrackAshley's POV"Ahh…hmm…ahh," I let out shallow breaths as I gasped for breath."It is finished!!!" I yelled and threw my sword on the floor as I fell to the ground."It isn't finished… It only ends when you beat me... We did not sign for a duel," Allen gasped likewise, taking in gulps of air."Beat you? With that skill of yours? It will take eternity for me to beat you… I am satisfied with the duel! I breathed heavily."Looser!" Allen yelled."Yes! I give up," I responded and he threw his legs up in the air triumphantly.I just had a spar with Allen. It was the longest one I had ever had since I started training with him. It lasted almost an hour and at the end it ended in a duel. It was my greatest achievement with swords.The past few months have been up and down. There were good times and bad times. Times when I cried and times when I laughed. I trained under the sun and in the rain. There were times that I found no meaning to all that I did
Ashley's POV"You know the rules, ensure to keep them," Sherif our platoon captain gritted as he gave a bunch of keys to Allen. Although we started together and he is our captain. He turned out to be the worst asshole in the army. He gave me a serious hard time before I leveled up, but now, he knew his boundaries. In short, no one borders me again.Allen collected the keys and we walked out of his sight. It was the night I dared most. It was a wolf training night. Usually we all come out in our numbers. We shift into our wolves and train, either individually or in groups.It was the night of the full moon, as typical of every wolf training night. The moon was shining brightly and it led us to our destination."It is going to be freezing cold tonight," Allen said."Huh… how did you know, you are not always right about the weather," I joked."I am pretty right tonight," he mumbled looking into the dark sky.I chuckled wondering if he could see anything in the dark sky."Princ Logan…" I
Allen's POVI flinched as our bodies made contact. Despite her cloth and my shirt that were covering her, she was as cold as ice. I beat myself for bringing her down and I hoped I hadn't driven her too hard... I wasn't aware of her condition.I remained on top of her ensuring that her feet and hands were covered. Every other part of her body was beneath me.Soon she gained heat from my body. Her body twitched and her eyes fluttered. Instantly I felt relieved and with that relief came a dangerous awareness.I became aware of her soft body under my toned and hard muscles. The heartbeat sounded loudly into my ears. Throbbing my chest.My chest was crushing down her surplus breasts that had always been eye-catching.Heaving a sigh, l shifted my gaze from her burst only to settle on her face.Her eyes were still fluttering and I prayed she would open them and stop me before I did something crazy.This was a woman I wanted and resisted. It was a great temptation. I was seeing bubbles. My
Ashley's POVI avoided Allen like a pest since the sex saga occurred. I felt ashamed of myself and I was embarrassed to face him.I should have suppressed what I felt when I woke up and met him kissing me. I knew it wasn't intentional, I knew he was swept up in his emotions while he was trying to care for me. But what did I do? I lured him in.Yes the whole thing was a set up but it did not cancel the fact that we fell. I had reported to appropriate quarters about the whole incident. I stated how I was locked up in the cold and how it was a threat to my life.Nothing drastic has been done since I filed the report and I hoped my report would not be treated as trivial and as a cover up for my shameful act.Rumors increased daily and I feared about what report would get to Prince Regan.I had just returned from the shooting range when a junior colleague came to call me. My heart skipped a beat as I raced down to the hall.I was summoned and I wondered who it was. Prince Regan? If he trav
Logan's POVThe anger and jealousy in my head cleared away as Ashely left with Allen.I had been angry since I heard the news. It was presented in a filthy way and I had to delay my visit just to be able to control my anger. But it still went wrong.I was blinded by rage and I failed to hear them out. But the fact that they almost had sex right in the open and they were caught was enough to make me go insane.What if they were not caught? Ashley would have wasted her life after all she has invested into it.I guessed I had many reasons that made me lose my cool. As Ashley led Allen away, her harsh words rang in my head and I groaned. I saw the look in her eyes, she was disappointed in me. It hit my heart and instantly I felt bad.No, I will swallow my pride, I will apologize. I said with determination and followed her."Ashley," I yelled and rushed after her but then I saw the crowd outside. It would raise more rumors if they saw me apologizing. I am not the issue here but Ashley. T
Ashely's POVDread filled my heart and I couldn't sleep all through the night. My heart ranged on different things that Prince Regan could do to me. I had broken the law.As Dawn drew nearer my fear spiked up. I could hardly walk out of my bed. When I finally did, I found my way to the bathroom to get myself prepared. I peeped out of the dorm at about seven a.m. My heart skipped a beat as I sighted the royal carriage. Other soldiers admired it as they passed by but to me, it was my doom.I put on my uniform and I was ready to leave. I was just at the entrance when Mr Park accosted me. He had a soldier with him. The soldier handed a bag to me and Mr Park shook his head as he walked away. I checked the package and I realized that it was a piece of cloth. He wanted me to change out of my uniform. I returned to the dorm and changed. It was a well-fitting short gown. I felt so different in it as it's been a long time since I wore something fancy. I could say the last time was the day St
Ashley's POVPrince Regan sat in his wheelchair as the sword fight continued. He watched in fascination and I could tell he was having fun.The guard sparring with me must have come from Mars. He was a pro. He blocked all of my strikes leaving me breathless. The fight went on for a long time and finally, I realized that my opponent intentionally tired me out to get the best of me. Now that I was tired, he charged at me, attacking me head-on.It was a change of play. I was defending while he attacked. I wasn't really good on the defensive side but I was left with no option. This wasn't just sparring, it was a death game and my opponent didn't look like he was joking. I could see the murderous glare on his face. He was sent to kill me while his master watched for fun.As the fight went on, I became deadly tired and I began to waver. My strength was gone and my grip on my sword loosened.My opponent took the opportunity. He attacked and I defended. Our swords clashed violently but I was
