Hazel’s pov

I was roughly shoved as the girls stepped back and stared at me with rage. The main girl, Lily, did a line across her neck to show me she would kill me if I said anything to her aunty.

Mara entered and looked at the four of us staring at her as she raised her brows.

“You girls look like you’ve been up to something,” she said while chewing on her gum.

“Oh no aunty,” Lily rushed to her and hugged her before taking her bag. “Also, you didn’t tell us about this new girl joining us.”

Lily was surprisingly chirpy that I was shocked this was the same chick who had tried to kill me seconds ago.

I didn’t even know what to do. I could only pretend that all was well as I smiled at the healer who shrugged.

“And why should I tell you I have a new student. You are learning your healing practice here and when you’re done you’ll be out of my hair like I promised your mother.”

Mara then looked at me and waved to me. “How are you dear?”

I nodded nervously. “I’m fine,” I said. “I’m only here

    Hazel’s povFear gripped me, and I turned to run, but there was nowhere to go. The crowd was closing in, their faces filled with disgust and rage. I felt tears sting my eyes as I realized how helpless I was.I wanted to scream, to beg them to understand that I wasn’t here to cause trouble. I was just trying to find a place where I could belong. But my voice was stuck in my throat, and all I could do was stand there, frozen with fear.Just when I thought things couldn’t get worse, a voice cut through the noise.“What’s going on here?”Everyone turned to look, and I saw a man standing at the edge of the crowd. He was tall and commanding, his eyes sharp as they scanned the scene.It was Kael, the Beta of the pack.The crowd parted slightly as he walked toward me, his expression cold and unreadable.“She’s a rogue,” one of the men said. “She doesn’t belong here.”Kael’s eyes locked onto mine, and for a moment, I couldn’t breathe. Then he turned to the crowd.“Does the Alpha know about thi

Don’t look at me. Pick it up,” she said as I nodded quickly and bent to pick up her things.I fixed all I was to fix and she waved me off.“Clean your hands of the mixture. And don’t use water. Just use a clean rag. That mixture can bring up hallucinations and whatnot and I don’t want you puking all over my floor.”I nodded and ran out to do what she had asked me to do.But when I raced through the back door, my ears picked up the sound behind me.I turned just in time to see Lily smiling at me with a bucket of water.“It’s time to see how good you are with sewage water,” said Lily as she tossed dirty water on me.I closed my eyes as the stench from the water felt like it was stinging my body.I cried out in frustration as I could not believe that anyone would be

For someone whom she had said was giving her a tough time, she really wanted Hazel to stay in her place and learn the healing techniques.A knock interrupted my thought as I saw Kael my beta coming in.He had a frown on his face but what was unusual about it? He always had a frown.It was almost like nothing could make him happy.“What is it this time?” I muttered as he closed the door behind him and walked to sit in the seat across from me.“I saw her in the market today,” he said as I shrugged.“You’ll need to be very specific if we would be playing the pronoun game with each other.”“I’m talking about Hazel. The rogue.” “She’s not a rogue. And she is under our care. Never fail to know that.”He nodded and went on. “She was on her own in the market.”“Maybe she went to the market with Mara to buy something for their healing lessons or something.

    Hazel’s POVI laid on the floor without even breathing normally as I didn’t want to piss off Lily.She was lying in her bed while tapping noiselessly on her phone.It was clear she couldn’t sleep either and it was midnight.I wanted to ask her so many things but my wolf decided against it.Saying anything could have me in trouble.So I laid down quietly and prayed for this night to be over in a breeze.“Stop breathing so loudly,” she said which had me frustrated as I sat up to look at her.I was wearing her clothes as she frowned at me.“Make sure you enjoy tonight because this is the last night you’ll ever sleep in this house.”That was it. I was done being insulted for no damn reason.“Why do you hate me?”“Because you’re a dunce.”I scoffed. “Coming from you.”“What was that?”“I said, coming from you.”I wasn’t backing down.She had done enough to me and I wasn’t taking anymore of her bullshit. Not anymore.“Ever since I’ve been here, which might I remind you is just in the last t

    Hazel’s POV We got back to the palace that night as I got to my room and fell on my bed. I was happy to be home. Lily entered the room and looked around in marvel. She was shocked that I was having a large room as big as this as she folded her arms. “Who are you to the alpha?” She asked as I shrugged. “A guest I guess,” I smiled. “Wait, you’re trying to tell me that the alpha gave you this large room that is on the Same floor as his just for being his guest?” I shrugged. “I guess so.” But she shook her head. “Nah. You have to be doing something extra. Are you sleeping with the alpha?” I was shocked. “Are you fucking kidding me? Keep your voice down so no one will hear you.” “So you are really sleeping with the alpha. I should have known.” But I growled at her. “It’s not how it works. Just stop it. I just got in here and he was kind enough to give a pregnant lady a house and a job at your aunty’s place. Please don’t even start with the insults.” She sighed. “I’m sorry. F

    Hazel’s POVI froze for a moment, unsure of what to say. Before I could respond, one of the injured men glared at me and crossed his arms. “I don’t want her treating me. I’ll wait for someone else.”His words stung, but I tried not to let it show. I glanced over at Mara, who was watching the situation with a raised eyebrow.This was harsh for me to explain to anyone as I was being treated like I was trash. I could only hold back my tears as I watched them and tried to hold myself from bursting through the doors and running away.I took in deep breaths and decided to talk to them to see if they would be calm and let me treat them.“I’m sorry if you see me as less than you but please I need to treat you so your wounds don’t get infected. There’s wolfsbane inside your injured legs so let me…”“Oh shut it you rogue,” another growled towards me as I kept my face down to not make them angry.At that point, I got scared that they were going to lynch me by the way they were acting up.Mara

    Orion’s pov"Everything's fine," I assured her, starting the car. "Let's go."I slammed on the gas as I drove off while the hum of the engine filled up the place with tense silence. My knuckles around the wheel turned white as I squeezed it and I frowned as I was focused on what I was doing.With time passing us I started to get even angrier and I hated it.“Orion,” her slurry voice came on as I sighed and growled. “Orion…”I couldn’t help myself any longer. “What?” I snapped at her.“I—I’m sorry,” she stammered, her voice small.I shot her a sharp glance then looked back at the road. “Stop,” I told her, my voice firm but controlled.She blinked, confused. “Stop what?”“It’s enough with the apology. You can stop,” I said with a snap with frustration in my tone. “I have so many questions but what I want to know is how you ended up being drunk in the first place.”Hazel hesitated, her hands twisting together anxiously in her lap. “I didn’t mean to,” she whispered.“Then what did you do?

Please.”I glanced back at her and tightened my jaw “Stay behind me.”One of the bouncers laughed, twirling his baton. “Big words when you’re outnumbered.”I stared at him and oozed as much Alpha into my stance as I could manage without tearing out of my skin.“You seriously don’t want to do this.”The leader of the group snorted. “We’re not scared of you. Now, are you going to come with us quietly and let us teach you a lesson, or do we have to drag you out?” I stepped forward, letting my growl echo out through the area. “Last chance. Move.”For a split second the bouncers hesitated, then they loomed in like wolves and I was moving faster than them.Using my heightened reflexes, I snatched the baton of the one closest to me as he tried to hit me with his baton, snapping it in half and tossing it aside with one hand. Hazel gasped behind me as I dodged a punch from another bouncer and kicked him down. “Anyone else?” I s

    Orion’s povI couldn’t believe what I had heard him say as I tried to understand his words. “What did you say?” I asked with a frown.He chuckled, a low irritating sound. “If you’re so determined to find the outsider, what will you do when you have found her?”I took a menacing step closer to him. “That’s none of your concern, just answer the question. Where is she?”He shrugged, annoyingly unfazed by my mounting irritation. “She’s at a party.”This was crazy. Was he being serious now?“A party? What do you mean a party?” I couldn’t help but notice that my voice rose to a high point as I punctuated every word. “You’re joking with me aren’t you? Hazel would never leave the packhouse. She is supposed to be here. How could she be at a party right now?”He smirked and his gaze was unwavering. “Why don’t you ask around, Alpha, if you doubt me? I am a thousand percent sure you’ll get the same answer from the people.”Now I was losing my mind as I clenched my fists while trying to calm mysel

    Orion’s povI was in my office going through some meeting with the elders who only yelled and talked about nothing that I would pay attention to if I was being honest. After their complaints, I nodded and told them I would fix it as they left the room.With a sigh, I leaned back and watched them leave as I looked at the time and sighed again.“Goddess, I hate this life,” I muttered as my wolf appeared before me and laughed.“Welcome to the life of being an alpha,” he said as I chuckled. “I don’t get it,” I said to my feet, walking to the large windows. “I understand that they don’t want me with an outsider but this is too much. The way they’ve been acting and treating me it’s been too much. They’ve been acting like I want to betray the pack.”“To be honest, if I were one of the elders and had no affiliation with hazel, I would want to get away too. She’s been labeled an outcast, she’s from the neighboring pack. We hate them and they hate us. We’ve been at war. What did you think was

    Hazel’s povWhen Evelyn had mentioned the party to me earlier, I hadn’t known she was for real. I was in my room, combing through my wardrobe when she breezed in without knocking, a self-satisfied smirk spread across her face.“Sweetie stop whatever it is you’re hunting for in that cupboard,” she declared dramatically waving a paper bag.“I’ve got stuff. And believe me it's way cooler than anything you’re thinking about wearing.”“What are those?” I blinked at her. She walked over to my bed and dumped the bag on top of it. “Dresses. Party dresses. You’re not going out there looking like a librarian. You need to make an entrance.” But my clothes are good. There is nothing wrong with them.She laughed. “Let me see one of them.”I got to my wardrobe and got out a dress as I wore it and showed her which didn’t work as she laughed even louder.“What are you laughing for?”“I’m sorry,” she said before bawling out again. “Where did you pick that? The dumpster?”“I can tell you I went shopp

    Orion’s povI was seated at the large oak table as I clasped my hands on my laps together. The elders who were around me with their voices raised were shouting about something that I rolled my eyes about but I didn’t care either way. One of the elders, elder Gerik’s voice, cut through the noise. “She doesn’t belong here, Orion. She’s a rogue. An outcast,” he said, his gaze hard.I didn’t respond immediately. I kept my eyes on the table, letting the words hang in the air. The room fell quiet, but only for a moment.Elder Alia chimed in, her voice cold and sharp. “We’ve tolerated her presence long enough. You cannot harbor a rogue in this pack. If we let her stay, others will come. We’ll be overrun by outcasts.”“And what are we supposed to do, send her away?” I asked, finally breaking my silence.Elder Gerik leaned forward. “Yes. She’s a threat. A rogue from Shadowclaw. She could be plotting something. You can’t trust her, Orion.”I looked at him with rage. If only I could tell them t

    Hazel’s povIt started quietly, a few snickers here and there, but soon it grew louder and louder as I fumbled on. It was an ugly sound, one that made my face burn with shame. I wanted to shut it out. I wanted to focus on what I was doing and push through, but it only became more pronounced with every mistake I made. It felt like they were all staring right at me, seeing me for who I really was. A failure and an outcast.Mara’s voice cut through the laughter, sharp and cold as ice. “Hazel. What is this?” Disappointment oozed from her.I winced. I hadn’t been expecting that reaction at all.“I can’t believe it,” Mara snapped. “You didn’t understand a word of what I taught you in class. This is a basic healing technique and you failed it.”My heart thudded in my chest like an exhausted bird flapping its wings against a harsh wind. She was wrong—I had tried. I really had learned these techniques before. “Go sit down,” Mara ordered, her tone dismissive.I felt the breath sucked from my l

    Evelyn’s povI left Hazel’s room with a heavy heart, my steps slow and deliberate as I made my way to my own room. My emotions were in turmoil, some of them beyond me, I couldn’t even put them into words. It wasn’t just the fact that Hazel had turned down my attempt at friendship. I had come to extend an olive branch, and she had shut the damn door. I had tried to be the better person but she’d seen right through it. And for some reason that hurt.Who did she think she was to act all high and mighty? Oh she was just trying out and she was thinking she was hotcake. I would show her what she was missing.When I got into my room, instead of finding a seat or attempting to clear my head I went straight towards the small table where tea was already being steamed down by one of my maids’.“Give me a painkiller,” I muttered to the maid as I dropped down onto the chair by the window. “And don’t give me anything weak. Give me something strong that will blot everything out.” I couldn’t keep up

    Hazel’s povI got up from my bed slowly, resting my palm against the wood in front of me. I wasn’t sure if I wanted to see anyone today.But as soon as I opened the door, I saw Evelyn standing there in front of me, her body blocking my path. I stopped dead in my tracks.“Hazel,” she said as I shook my head and got back into my room. Before I could even step back to close the door, she was faster than I expected. She stuck her hand in the way just before the door slammed shut. The force of it made her wince slightly, but she didn’t pull her hand back. I noticed the way her hand immediately started to heal, the skin knitting back together, and the redness fading quickly as if she hadn’t even been hurt at all.Frowning, I couldn’t understand what she was doing here. “What do you want?” my voice came out both cautious and suspicious as all hell kept racing through my mind; What could she possibly want now?She smiled at me, but it didn’t reach her eyes. There was something about the way s
