AZALEA'S POV"Why me?." I ask him. His eyes linger on my face for a second too long before he gives me a reply."Because your wolf is less present." He says. I nod.'He means weak' "You mean weak." I hiss."No, flower, You are not weak, but your wolf, she's far, so the chip would be safe from her strength." He tries to explain.It made a little sense, but I still couldn't bring myself to say yes right away."Is it dangerous?." I ask and he lets out a laugh."Danger is inevitable, this is war.""Still….." I would not be doing anything that would further endanger myself, Lexa and Justin needed me."It has, risks. And I know, your siblings come first, but this can change the entire course of the war.""I'm sorry, I -."I didn't know who or what to trust at the moment even if I wanted to end Black Lotus. I knew so little about this device that would be implanted in my body, I knew even more little about the man who was suggesting it to me.I watch as his eyes mist over for a small second
AZALEA'S POV"Flower, I need to hear you say it." He calls out to me, caressing my hand softly. Its then I realize we were back in his tent. I just stare at him with wide eyes, trying to focus on breathing."You understand the risks." He adds.Do I? Will I die from being implanted?, I don't know. He and Beta Ryder had multiple implants and were still alive, so that counts for something right?"Getting captured by Black Lotus, they will use torture, worse than you can imagine, do you understand?."Oh Lord, how did my life become this?.As much as I want to resist, I think I made my decision the moment he told me about the chip. If a small fraction of me didn't want to do this, I would have said no right away. But I didn't. I knew all along, but I was too scared to admit it myself.There was no way, I would sit back and let a chance to end the people who killed my parents go, even if it meant my own end. Even if I didn't trust Alpha Henry all the way, I could trust Ryder and Cedric to ta
AZALEA'S POVAs in Ray - Alpha of the Black Lotus pack? The evil man that we have been warned about for years, that just attacked and killed my family and almost everyone in my pack.The man who tormented packs all over the world. The one we were being trained against in the middle of the forest with poor feeding and horible sleeping conditions. The one who I was supposed to be voluntarily captured by.He doesn't answer me. My head spins a little at the new information. My hands turn to jelly by my side, I almost fall back flat, but he is faster, he catches me with his right hand, pulling me impossibly closer, a million sparks explode on my back at the impact. My body reacts like this is normal, like we have done this a million times over. I try to speak, but he doesn't seem interested in my worries. Instead he's leaning in."You're too close" I point between us, he lips twitches and I know I had just caused problems for myself."Why?." His breathy voice making me shiver. His eyes are
FUCKFuckFuckI kissed Azalea.FuckAnd I fucking ran away like a pussy. I hate myself for runnnig away the way I did. But I didn't need anyone telling me that kissing a young girl you are supposed to be training is bad. I still can not explain what came over me. One moment we were speaking and another I was fucking entranced in her siren eyes. My hands are shaking, my heart is beating fast. I have never reacted this way to woman before."Is it done?." Cedric asks me breaking my train of thoughts."What?." I ask like he had just spoken Chinese."Is it done?, the implants no side effect?." He urges. I swallow and nod."None for now, she was a bit dizzy so she's staying in there for a while." I answer."She will be fine." Cedric tells me under the impression that I am worried for her thus my current shaken state.I thought I had more self control, but all it took was for her to look at me with those siren eyes, her plump lips begging to be kissed the more I stared at her. I should stay
HENRY'S POVI need to keep my distance and this might just help, but I also need to keep an eye on her for any side effects of the chip. I knew nothing about her medical history other than she was adopted and her parents were never found, the implant could bring out any underlying issues and I don't want that.I am angry at my self for taking advantage of her, when she was so vulnerable. I am also angry that instead of being a responsible adult in the situation, I ran away like a fucking coward. I know she will avoid me, she has done it before but some how it made me angrier instead of content like I thought. We have one more full day before veering out of the woods back to the main road to have Eli pick us up. He had transmitted earlier that the choppers and busses were on standby to evacuate us as soon as we appear to the road.Another sigh leaves my lips at the thought that this will be over soon and if I stop seeing her as much, maybe I would not be this affected by her anymore. B
AZALEA'S POVTraining goes as planned, but with alpha Henry in a much angrier mood than he usually is, he pushes us so hard that a few people pass out dehydrated and fatigued.And as if that wasn't enough he announced them out of training for the war.While others were busy grunting and angry about it, I almost wish I fainted too, because I think he is extra cranky since I what transpired last night. have decided to avoid him like a plague.But the goddess wouldn't let me have it.We took turns in sparing with each other, changing partners every 10 minutes. I was down to my last sparing of the day which proved to be more difficult than the six foot men I had been fighting all week.Racheal was one of the very first persons I get to spar with weapons. We were given different arms according to our abilities. Some got metal bats, others like Racheal got a sparing rod with sharp blades, I got a short wooden rod.Trust Alpha Henry to mess with me at every chance."Is this a Joke?." I ask an
"Azalea you're going to kill her!." I hear Ryder shout, but his voice was too far away to reach me. Rachel wriggles underneath me, gasping for life. I was about to twist her neck between my legs when I was involuntarily yanked away from her thrust across the yard like a sack of flour.Before I register what is going on, people are being rushed back to the tents, Ryder and two other men carrying an almost lifeless Rachel away.My body begins to burn up as I took in the sight. I was about to murder Rachel. All I wanted to do was run, far away. With my hands, I try to push myself up with a large rock, but as I touched it, it shattered to pieces like a sledge hammer had gone through it. I stared at my hands, they looked normal.The ground continued to crack under me the winds getting stronger and sandier. I see Alpha Henry looking at me like he had seen a ghost.I moved to run away from him, towards the pond, as I knew no where else to go."Hey, no." He catches up with me, trying to hold m
HENRY'S POVShe's causing the earthquake. I can almost feel her magic grow, as she continues to panic. Amidst my own shock at her control of the wind and the ground, I shout to Cedric to get everyone to safety, while Ryder took care of a now limp Racheal. She had passed out but didn't die, thankfully.I turn back to Azalea, she was staring at her arms as a huge boulder just shattered as she touched it.She stood up quickly as she noticed me, I open my mouth to talk but she takes off running.'She's going to hurt herself if she doesn't calm down.' Things are finally making sense, why I felt such a strong connection to her, why she was such severe anger issues, why she had been pushing her wolf back.When I have been so focused on why her wolf presence was low, it never occurred to me that she was pushing her wolf back intentionally. I pushed her to heal, when she didn't want to at all.Azalea was scared of her own wolf, which is why she had been pushing back the entire time. She knew he
