KING'S MATE 25. SHOCKING MOLE
HENRY'S POVShe is fast, I'll to give her that, or maybe I am too distracted by her, even more now that she's above me.But I'm still stronger, before she can blink, the roles her reversed and I have her hands locked above her head, my knees pinning her to the ground. I watch as her chest rise and fall in heavy breaths.'She's so young.' My wolf rises to the surface as her scent fills my nose and for some reason, I'm suddenly bothered by her. I look closely and it finally sinks in. A snarl escapes my lips."What the fuck are you doing this far from camp?!." I growl angrily and she scoffs.She had the fucking nerve to scoff.She knows all too well who I am or she would have screamed for help by now, and despite knowing that I am king and her new alpha, she dare scoff at me."I'm pretty sure you watched my bathe, you pervert." she spits out, struggling. I grow angrier or horny, not sure which one."I thought you were a fucking mutt for Black Lotus, sneaking out of camp in the middle of t
KING'S MATE 26. CAMP MATINGS
AZALEA'S POVTill now, all I've have done is drills and dummy practice. So I'm very inexperienced as to what strategies to fight with in general. Life has taught me recently that, the fitness trainings dad used to teach us was no where sufficient for real life war.But it doesn't take a lot to see a pattern in his attacks, left foot forward, right knee and left fist, right foot forward, left knee and right fist. Pretty basic, but I know that each of his blows are going to be lethal. Taking the advantage of my smaller frame, I narrowly escape them or I would be passed out already.Scary guy eye twitches and aims for a low blow, all his attention on my torso, his target, giving me the perfect entry, I bring my knee up as defense, he stops it, with his other hand. Seeing as he is out of hands, I spin on my heel planted on the ground and deliver an elbow to his face, his hand drops my knee in his momentary disorientation so I twist under him to sweep him off his feet with my leg. He rolls
KING'S MATE 27. COINCIDENTAL COINCIDENCE
HENRY'S POV"Alright!, quickest fight I've ever seen!." He yells.Pride fills me in a weird way as everyone turns to see.'Atta girl.' I held down a whisper.I should be worried, very worried that a girl, that looks not a day over eighteen is taking down a guy twice her size and probably a few years above her. I get that she is a Beta's daughter, but what she did takes incredible strength from her core.One that years of brutal assassin-like training would give.Her partner says something that cause a small smile from her and I frown, suddenly wanting to hear their conversation. I have only seen her frowning since I met her, both scenarios not exactly what would warant a smile or laugh. The first being ambushed by a trio of hormonal teenage boys, second when I followed and threatened to kill her if I found out she worked for Black Lotus. Still, something in me was on the verge of snapping at the thought that the guy could get her pretty little kisable lips to smile when nobody had. No
KING'S MATE 28. ALPHA KING
AZALEA'S POVI see Ryder's eyes follow her as she walks to her father's side, with literal hearts in his eyes like a puppy at a treat. I shake my head at how smitten he is. I always find it funny how the mate bond works, how total strangers sometimes gets so lust filled in a matter of minutes of meeting each other.Makes me wonder if it's actually true love. We barely get any divorces or cheating in packs because of how strong the mate bond is.So families stick together, but a part of me wonder if that is by choice. Would either parties chose otherwise if the opportunity presents itself?. While we don't have cases of infidelity often, we do get physical and emotional abuse cases. Imagine dealing with highly hormonal man beasts. Yep! Its as crazy as it sounds.Some of these men are very power hungry and they take it out on their mates.In the entire history of Blue-Ivy pack, only two mated couples had been forced to split on the accounts of physical and emotional abuse or infidelity. A
KING'S MATE 29. PAST SECRETS
HENRY'S POVI jerk out of the sleeping bag, sweating in the dark of the night.Fuck!.I scuffle around for a glow stick, pointing it over my wrist watch. It says 1 am and I vividly remember falling asleep 10 minutes past 12. I lay still for a few more long minutes, staring blankly at the roof of the tent.I don't always like to admit it, but I was fucking scared. Scared that I would never defeat my uncle, and that he knows that very well. The fear of what might happen if he manages to win once again. The lives that would be lost, the families that would be torn apart.As time pass It becomes more and more glaring that I will have to one day, soon, fight my own uncle for power. The one who killed my mother and father in cold blood. For years I have been run by the inert rage to find him and rip life out of him. But now I suddenly think of the possibility that maybe I am weak, maybe I will never be able to rip life out of him.I still refuse to believe that the power I think I need to de
KING'S MATE 30. FIRE ACCIDENTS
HENRY'S POVPressure increase as we continue to the pack the next morning. The lot used to be able to hike at least 6 hours before a break, now every 2 hours, people are fainting from heat stroke and fatigue. We once again had to set up camp for another two days after leaving Rocky Mountains territory.I am angry at the delay but equally irritated by their weakness. What was supposed to take a day now took 2 whole days, with whining.Back when I was in the military, even though I was younger than everyone there, they made no exceptions, made us train under the scorching sun and thundering rain with large tires tied around our waist.The trainings have helped, but they still had a long way to go to match up to Ray's army. They need more intense training. A loud round of groans reach my ears as I call out for another hundred laps after the fifty sit ups."Alpha." Ryder looks at me."They'll be fine, a little laps won't kill anyone." I dismiss him. He's way too soft on these nepo babies.
KING'S MATE 31. ANTSY SURVIVOR
AZALEA'S POV"Arg!." Reid, my sparring partner, a six foot big guy probably weighing 200 pounds hits the floor with a loud thud. I don’t know what it is, but I've been feeling a lot stronger these days. Maybe its mountain air, maybe it’s the pond waters, its certainly not the awful military powder food, but something is different.I know they say your wolf awakening gives you strength, but I have been pushing her down. I don't know what scares me more, that she could be dangerous to me or to the people around me.Compared to Reid, I'm a child, but somehow, just like all the other people I've spared with, has taken a beating. My biggest advantage is my heightened speed, its almost like I can see their moves before they even do it.Not expecting another attack from Reid as his back is already to the ground, I don't see his paws till they scratch my legs aiming for my side, the impact sending me to my knees instantly. I hear a loud round of gasps from the audience, pain shoots through me
KING'S MATE 32. CHOPPING BLOCKS
HENRY'S POVAs much as they are being prepared for a brutal war with Black Lotus, we have limited the use of weapons and wolf forms to minimize injuries of people being conveyed. Werewolves heal very fast, but healing takes a lot of strength regardless, it would once again slow our journey down.Imagine my horror when what started out as a normal sparing ends up with someone bleeding. Rage fills me as I see an oversized nepo baby after he has been defeated go after his opponent again with the aim of actual hurt.Maybe I wouldn't be so mad, if said opponent was not already visibly injured and if said injured opponent wasn't Feisty. Of all the people he could have decided to hurt, it was her. As if I was not already aware of her enough. Even if I did nothing, Ryder would have given his ass a real beating. But I stopped him. I had other plans, which included him unconscious.His pathetic ego couldn't live with the fact that she, a tiny teenager next to him was a better fighter even thoug

KING'S MATE 64. SERIOUS CONVERSATIONS
AZALEA'S POVI still dread these new found abilities, but Alpha Henry seems rather happy about it. Maybe because it made us similar in a way or because he always wanted to teach someone things he had learnt with his abilities, but until now it was not heard of.Even after so much practice, the only thing I am capable of is blooming flowers. That doesn't seem like a very useful ability unless Black Lotus were deathly allergic. He says he can see my powers swirl around me every time we try, that if I just concentrate more I would be able to unlock other parts of my abilities.What if the 'other parts' of my abilities are not as extra ordinary or are too dangerous?. We spent a few more minutes before having to return to camp separately."Where have you been?." Lexi asks me immediately I reach the clearing."Isn't it obvious, she smells like him." Justin replies looking over to Alpha Henry whose attention was on us, definitely not in the words Cedric was speaking, Lexi rolls her eyes and
KING'S MATE 63. MY WOMAN
HENRY'S POVWe charge at each other, unleashing power aiming for each other's throats. I deliver the first blow to his side, peeling off a good chunk of his skin. He counters my attack however with a slash to my face, digging through my eyes.Without a second I recover, sending him to a near by tree. He comes at me again with full force, we tussle over reach other, biting and scratching at every turn. I make sure to target his neck multiple times.While I am a larger wolf in this fight, he has years of skill and training older than myself under his belt as well as the odds in his favor.'What’s wrong fire boy?.' He chimes prancing around me as I struggle to regain my footing. The earth is spinning under my paws. I can feel consciousness seep out of me.'Is that all you've got?.'Anger bubbles through me again as I let out a growl. He is baiting me to use my abilities knowing fully well that it would do more harm to the survivors of Blue Ivy than more harm to himself and his army. I sha
KING'S MATE 62. DEVIL HIMSELF
HENRY'S POVThe sun began to set and the entire camp gathered for what would be the last time in the deep of the forest. Eli confirmed the vehicles waiting at the other end of the forest to take us into Red Fire territory.As they all gathered, I let out a breath counting relieved that no one died and no one was missing.Yet I could not rejoice, because I knew at the back of my mind that, I had known all along, the feeling of dread that I could not shake since I arrived in Blue Ivy. Some thing would go terribly wrong.We split off into teams as usual, the children with the adults and a trained survivor in their group. This part of the journey was to be done in wolf. It is a tricky situation.Since the death of their Alpha, their link has been broken, and since the current situation didn't exactly favor a pack run, their bond as a pack has deeply weakened. It would be very difficult to keep everyone on track when they shift into wolf form.It would be hard to keep their wolves from goin
KING'S MATE 61. THE ORACLE
HENRY'S POV"When did you first start to, like me?." She ask, her chin pressing against my chest. Fuck this 20 questions game.I pause to think about it and fall short, she stormed my life and sucked me in.Till a few days ago I was convinced that I did not. So the question should be, when I realized that I like her."Hmn, I don't know."She pulled away from me slightly, as if offended, and my mind tells me she has a rather detailed recount of how and how she started to like me."Hold on, let me think about this." I laugh almost nervously. "Okay, I think I liked you the entire time." Now that I think about it, there was not a time where I didn't see Azalea, but I disguised my feelings as something else.Her smile falls."The very first-second time I met you, you were already cemented in my mind. I refused to believe I liked you, I told myself she's like 18, she's too young. I am not a pedophile or a groomer." I raise my shoulders."But you were everywhere, when I'm awake you there, du
KING'S MATE 60. OTHER WOMAN
HENRY'S POVThe next morning, bright and early we start out on what would be the very last lap of our hike to Red Fire.After the disturbing news that Ryder gave me last night, I want to get out of this forest as soon as possible.I look around for Azalea as the trainees file out for training, our eyes meet for a brief second before she looks away quickly."Two teams!." I call out and they split."I will join Ryder's team." I hear her say to her friend Casper. That was the closest I was to her all morning. It felt like she was intentionally trying to avoid me.After training drills are over, while the rest of the trainees start gobbling down water and stale bread, I grab a bottle of water to her, letting my hands linger as she took it. I will never get over the sparks."Thanks." She whispers, turning away."You'd sleep okay?."Her eyes dart to me. "Some one might hear!." She hush."I don't care." I reach out to touch her but she flinch away, stepping backwards to the rest of the group
KING'S MATE 59. MYSTERIOUS MATE
HENRY'S POVShe grinds into me as her arousal hits my nose in a sweet aroma. My teeth began to itch, as my wolf starts to push forward.I pull away from her unwillingly, she flashes me one of her rare smiles breathing heavily."I think its best we pause here." I whisper, unable to control my wolf's urges to mark her. Her lips were swollen and red from my kisses. I place another peck on them as if sealing my fate. There is no going back now.I finally let go of her legs and feeling how wet her pussy is for me. Oh Goddess help me to stay away. "Or I don't think I will be able to stop myself from taking you here and now."Her green eyes stare into mine as if telling me she wanted me just as badly, but I know better. She is not one of those girls I fuck for the sake of a release. I am willing to wait till she is ready, as long as that takes.Shit, I've got it bad.Also because I want to be sure of what I feel for her, to be sure spending this much time in the forest is not messing with my
KING'S MATE 58. STOCKHOLM SYNDROME
AZALEA'S POV"You were supposed to be mated to my sister, and I am 19, we have this huge age gap……" I list off. There are a thousand reasons why this is going to end with me getting hurt."Tha, that is a different story." He stops me, frowning. "A long one, but since we are on the matter." He gestures for me to sit on the tall rock that looked like a chair."I don't know if it was your sister, but I did end up finding my mate that night of the attack." He starts slowly. My heart plummets then I remember that I was with Eloise till she died, I doubt if the mate he found was her.I was about to ask when he continues with his story. "She was the most eccentric wolf I have ever seen, large and proud, definitely an alpha, but something was off about her." He turned to face the spring as the mist hovered over the clear green water."Because the next minute she rejected the bond and walked away."My mouth snaps shut. "It was in the woods, behind the, um, council house or what do you call it?.
KING'S MATE 57. MOST BEAUTIFUL
AZALEA'S POVThe next day after another brutal round of training, alpha Henry drops the bomb shell that it would be out last day in camp as we will finally be leaving the forest to the rendezvous point of Red Fire. Vehicles are waiting to take us into the pack.We could all feel the tension rise. Before now, to many of us, Red Fire seemed like a myth but as it drew closer, conspiracies flew at what we would find.I didn't know what to feel, scared or excited. My life had changed so much in the last two weeks, things I used to think would never happened have and others I didn't want to did. I certainly did not anticipate whatever is between Alpha Henry and I.I tried my best to avoid his stares through the training."Yay! We are a few hours away from becoming slaves." Lexa sighs."Are you scared of what might happen when we get there?." I ask her. She nods."Aren't we all?.""I know this whole thing has been hard, but I think Red Fire might not be so bad after all." I say slowly."At l
KING'S MATE 56. INTOXICATING SCENT
HENRY'S POVI pause, forgetting once again that it is entirely new to her. "Yes, that's what powers like these are called.""You can manipulate or rather control an element with your energy." I explain standing up. I pull her to her feet as well. Hoping that she can try to not kill another survivor when next they have to fight."Control is all in the mind, if you are happy, sad or angry or any extreme emotion, a surge of energy is released in form of the power to command the element. In my case, fire." I say sharply as the tree behind us catches fire for a second and stops."Are you happy, sad or angry now?." She ask watching me. I shake my head."Once you get a hang of it, or have had it as long as I have, you'll be able to control how much energy is needed to activate it or how much your emotions influence the release of energy."That was a mouthful, but I think she understood."Emotion releases energy, Got it." She nods. "And I know I have been saying this since I met you, but you
