All Chapters of KING'S MATE: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

HENRY'S POVI spent the better part of the night planning a new defense formation against the Rogue attack and the Black Lotus packs. It was difficult dealing with such inexperienced group of fighters unlike my seasoned soldiers, but it had to be done.And I am sure I have made it abundantly clear multiple times that everyone had a responsibility to keep themselves alive. I can not be every body's savior even if I wanted to.I sigh to myself again, recounting the night's troubles. Failing to detect the Rogue in time was definitely a problem, one I took full responsibility for. After all I was the alpha, but it made me question many things I thought I knew.I decided to forget sleep and do another lap round the entire camp to look for clues. I made my way back to the camp fire where Lexa had been attacked and sat for a while, beckoning on the help of my ancestors to at least find an answer or I would run mad.I was so close to giving up when I caught the whiff of something, - it was ver

HENRY'S POVI got off the transmitter with Eli back home telling him our plans and resume my tinkering. While the counsel of elders think my years in the human world have clouded my judgement, I managed to get a degree in Robotics and Machine learning which has been a huge blessing these past years.Back then I didn't know what I needed it for but it was the most exciting thing I could find to fill time when I returned to pack life and began crafting other measures for safety.Only Eli, Cedric and Ryder know about this, but I have been experimenting building a stronger electromagnetic field around the park land and perimeters able to not just prevent entry, but launch attacks on its own. The problem with this is the vast area of the alliance packs. We would have to build several grids in ten different areas.Our pack is wealthy, but the type of money needed is huge. Pack life thrives in the wild, concealed in deep dark unspoiled forests, building these magnetic grids might also jeopard

HENRY'S POV"Ryder might be on to something." Cedric says to me as soon as we leave the training grounds."About?." I ask with a scoff. Ryder might be a great fighter and wing man, but he is not exactly known for bright ideas."Azalea."I turn to him confused. "What about, Azalea?." I ask, pausing on her name. It sounds a bit odd as I say it out. I am used to other nick names for her. He looks around for a while before pulling me into the tent, "Your highness, you can keep using yourself as the test subject." He whispers.I fold my arms, staring at him, hoping he'd just get to the point."I am too old, Ryder reacted to the last prototype as well, his wolf is too wild.""Get to the fucking point Ced." I urge, scratching my eyebrow."Azalea is…….different, like you, I can feel it. She is also the only person in camp with the weakest wolf." He reasons. My stomach churns at the thought. I knew where he was headed, but I didn't like it.Her wolf isn't weak, she is just not active yet, for

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 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
