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
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 m
AZALEA'S POVI join the rest of the crowd and split up into our assigned groups as we have been trained. All the while Alpha Henry was repeating instructions and all the cheering around me, I literally keep zonning out. My head is foggy and unable to concentrate. We make eye contact one more time, I guess his way of trying to calm me down which makes me wonder if he can sense that I am clearly disturbed. The last thign I would want is to cause a scene or delay this whole move because I am feeling a bit poorly or foggy. "Are you okay?" Casper whispers to me. I nod, before shaking my head.He cups my face and jerks his hand away quickly as if he had been burned."Fuck, you're boiling!.""Yeah." I laugh.He looks around to call someone but I stop him. I would die of embarrassment if he called any more attention to me. And I really don't want to be a reason we would delay the run this night. We are just minutes away from leaving this forest. I probably ate a wild berry and I'm having an
HENRY'S POV 'That's the last set.' Ryder links me as the final glider rises to the air."Go round one more time." I tell the pilot, Sam instead of replying him. I see the looks they gave each other at my words, but I don't care. They know better than to defy me.I must find her tonight.I walk away from the cock pit turning to the two dudes on computers. I try to know most of the members of Eli's tech team by name but they keep changing. They continue yapping some geographical nonsense to each other typing away rapidly to the giant screens before them."How hard is it to fucking find a giant gold wolf?!."They all flinch, fear washing over their face.How fucking hard is it to trace her chip, how hard could it fucking be?"Still no sign alpha." I hear the pilot call out."Go around once more!.""We're low on jet fuel, Alpha." This time, its Ryder speaking. I shoot him a death glare and he holds my gaze instead of backing down.'Its been hours, I think its been established that we won'
AZALEA'S POVI was adopted, found, really, by a bush of Azaleas, hence my name. My adoptive parents had 2 children before me, a boy and a girl, and a set of twins after me, also a boy and a girl, making 5 kids in all. They love us equally but leave us to ourselves most of the time, busy with pack duties and also personal, duties - they're so into each other, it's gross. Dad could never, even if he tried, keep his hands off mom. Kai, our eldest brother says that’s how it has always been. I dream of a love like that, a man who would love me flaws and all, obsessed with me even when all the hairs on my head turn grey, and me, him, even when he can’t walk straight from arthritis.Kai and Eloise, my older siblings don't like me much, I guess they feel like I intruded, on their perfect little family. They have never really come out to say out rightly, but they do these subtle things like, make me do all their share of chores, and just stay away form me until absolutely necessary.My younger
AZALEA'S POV"Kai what are you doing!, get out!." I manage to order, but it did nothing to help."Why, I've not had my fun yet." I walk backwards, putting distance between us. "You know, I've always thought of what your skin would feel like in my arms, those perky breasts in my mouth…….." He laughs in a diabolical way, I've never heard before, pushing his brown hair out of the way, I walk away with each step he takes towards me."Kai, you're drunk and in my room! Get out, before you do something stupid." I shout, by now, all sense being quiet and respectful out the window. But he doesn't listen."Kai, stop right there, I'm going to shout!.""Of course you are, when I show you all the pleasures of the world." In a swift movement, he is right in front of me, his hands on my neck, I try to run, but he's fast, I reach for something to hit him with, my eyes dilating as he restricts my air flow. His hands begin to rake my body in a very, very disgusting way, I manage to pick a pen holder an
AZALEA'S POVWeeks LaterI stand in front of my mirror, a deep scowl etched to my face, taking off my hat. I wouldn’t generally say I hate myself, but I'm so different and its not even the cute kind.I dyed my hair yesterday but somehow, overnight, the ends had grown an inch and a half longer. I used to be pretty bald as a kid, my hair was so short that I could only put them in little pig tails, but age 13 or 14, my hair started growing like some sort of lab freak.Mom had been excited, she said it only meant I would have a pretty wolf, my hair was supposed to be the color of my wolf. I didn’t believe her, not more than do I now. It has been years and said pretty wolf is yet to show up.It wouldn’t be that big a deal if the inch I grew over night wasn’t bright silver in color. I drop my face into my palm, biting my lip for a minute to mute out the scream of curses I was going to let out, I didn’t want to call any attention to myself. Unlike Kai, all pressure has been on my older sist
AZALEA'S POV“No she doesn't.” She defends immediately. I arch an eyebrow at her, she smiles.“I had a lot of sisters growing up too, and we never really saw eye to eye, even though we were almost the same ages,” I interrupt her and she let me.“You and all your sisters are from the same parents, Eloise sees me as a pest.” I tell her truthfully and she gasps, I guess I'm breaking her heart with my words, she probably doesn’t think it's as bad as it is.“If you think like that of your sister, then how are you any better Azalea?.” She tells me firmly, I want to argue, but I decide against it, it's no use."Have you ever tried to mend things with your sister other than concluding based on your prejudice?. If not, then the fault also lies with you." I want to tell her all how Eloise and her friends use to mock me in school. How she would let them laugh at me. How would I endure that and try to "mend things" when I have done nothing wrong but being adopted. “I’ll talk to Eloise so you guy

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
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
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
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
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?.
