Paige's POV"Do you think Gabriel would agree?" I asked Azel. He has been my tour guide around the training ground for minutes now. I realized the training ground was bigger than any I'd seen even though I'd only seen just one. Funny right? The training ground had cell rooms, torture rooms, and the men's changing rooms. Most of the warriors were male but about five percent of them were females. I found it absurd that no restroom or changing room was assigned to females, just males. I wanted to ask Azel about it but I decided against it.When we got to the cell room, I froze up. I couldn't take a step towards the building. All that ran through my head were memories of what I'd gone through that terrible night. I fought with the tears and my demons at the same time. When Azel noticed that I was behind, he walked back to me, threw his large arms on my shoulder, and turned us, so we would walk somewhere else.I saw some of the female warriors training and I felt really excited about it.
Luka's POVBreakfast was rushed. I'd set a meeting with the elders this morning and I had woken up late. In addition to that, I prepared late, and now, I have just five minutes to have that meeting with them. A day after we came back from Gabriel's pack, Crystina and I visited her people. Some of them recognized her while others didn't. Those who recognized her were really happy to see her. They told her it's been a while since they'd seen her but they were glad she was Hale and hearty. They all knew she was my Luna and one of the older women saw it as fate. I don't know exactly why I brought her people back to my pack but one thing I remembered was the promise I made when I saw their faces. I saw people who had lost hope, people who were scared and yet at the same time angry about how things had turned out, I saw people who needed help, a new home and a new beginning and I offered them one. When they took it, I promised to take care of them because they were now my people. That wa
Crystina's POV"How did it go?" I asked as soon as Luka held my hand. Having met with him at the hospital about a second ago, I realized he had been waiting for me. I was the one who called him and asked for us to meet up here instead of bringing him back to the apartment."Are you fine? You look pale," he noticed. He was really an observant person but got more observant these days. I tried to hide that away from him by using a little makeup but I guess I just wasted my effort in that aspect. "I'm good. I threw up a little while I was at home," "A little?" He raised an eyebrow.I smiled, knowing I'd been caught lying again. "Does my body release pheromones that you sniff out whenever I lie?" "You're changing the topic baby," "Did it work?" "It never works so why will it work now?" I laughed at that. I'm happy with Luka. Genuinely, I am satisfied with where I am right now. All my life, I had nothing but hatred for him. He deserved it though like he always says but recent develop
Paige's POV"She's none of your business, Carter," Gabriel growled. He stared at me before turning to his brother.Azel still had his signature glare on as he stared at his brothers. "What's with the attitude?" Carter asked.Gabriel pointed at him. "Why don't you buzz off? You've seen Azel, you've gotten the answer to the question you wanted, so get the fuck out of my pack," He smirked. "Buzz off? I'm not a bee, Gabriel," "Trust me, you're nothing more than a bee that I can crush underneath my shoes without blinking twice," "Why don't you try?" Carter challenged him, moving closer to his brother with a hard glare on his face.I turned to Azel and saw that he was still glaring at them. I pulled at his sleeves so he could look down at me. He did and I raised an eyebrow, I could see he was still frowning."Do they usually bicker like this?" I asked. He snorted. "Bicker? This isn't bickering, Princess. They can actually hurt each other if care isn't taken. They've been at loggerhead

Paige's POV It's been three days since I met Gabriel's brother and learned a little bit about their family. After we shared a kiss, we separated. I slept on the bed while he walked into the bathroom to have a shower. By the time he came out, he settled on the couch. I wanted to ask him to come to bed but I stopped myself. I closed my eyes to sleep thinking I would see the handsome man of my dreams but when I woke up, I felt empty. It was an empty dream, filled with nothing that I wanted or needed. I looked at the couch and realized Gabriel was gone. Not even a trace of him was left in the room. For the past three days, that has been the routine. My room was finally ready and I would be moving into the room today, Azel told me he would help me with it and I look forward to spending time with him. As I walked out of Gabriel's room, I peeked into my new room and a smile crept on my face. I was suddenly excited at the thought of having such a nice room to myself. The furniture was newl
Paige's POV "Will she be able to handle the truth about you?" Gabriel didn't say a word. He kept on glaring at Carter and I was sure he was saying something to him through their mind link. Azel even looked pissed, which is something I'd barely seen since I moved here. "What truth?" I asked out of curiosity. Gabriel growled and walked out of the house "When you met Gabriel, did you feel a sudden pull like every other stupid mate does? Did it feel familiar or did it feel new?" "If you think you're making sense, then I'm sorry to let you know that you're not," I told him. His words weren't making any sense to me. In fact, gibberish would have sounded better than his words. "Gabriel has a gift or a curse that makes him travel through dreams. He doesn't just travel through dreams, he also manipulates dreams, changing reality through dreams and color-shadowing them. Let's imagine you and Gabriel met by a riverside in reality. If Gabriel wants it to be on a train, all he has to do i
Paige's POV "Hello Luna, it's good to have you here," Ola spoke as I joined them on the training ground. "I'm not your Luna," I corrected him. "Yet," he completed my statement and I surrendered. "What are you doing here?" I pointed to Azel who was busy talking to other warriors that were standing at the gate. He had told me to stay close while he talked to them. "I came here with Azel but he's busy with those guys," "Alright," I looked around, scared and excited at the same time that I would see Gabriel. He might get mad for me coming here despite saying no. Still, this is my life. If I wanted to train with the warriors, I believe I should be able to. Even though my wolf is almost inexistence, it still doesn't mean I can't train my body. It'll make me stronger not just in mind but in body. Even if I'm not able to shift into my wolf, I would be able to fight in my human form and become stronger too. Unfortunately for me, I have to have the Alpha's permission before I coul
