All Chapters of KING'S MATE: Chapter 61 - Chapter 67

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 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

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

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'
