Azai’s POV I stood at the open door watching her take off into the woods, I wanted to follow her, but I needed to finish this argument more than anything. I spun around walking back to the table where my father was standing, his face full of shock. “What do you have to say now? She didn’t submit to you; she didn’t submit to me. She is the wolf that you claim doesn’t exist. She is the Celestite wolf, father. I didn’t want to bring her here; she commanded me to bring her. It is my duty to keep her safe,” I said to him loudly. “Wait,” Zaine interrupted, “she commanded you? She can command you what to do, but you neither of you can command her.” “Badass,” Callie whispered before realizing she was speaking aloud. My father looked at me, “we will discuss this later. I need to go see what I can find on this.” He strode off in the direction of his study. I looked to Zaine, “take them back upstairs, I’m going to find her.” I turned around running toward the back porch and shifted midair

As Circe went back inside to join the other royals, I stayed on the back porch. Callie and Caleb joined me, not sure whether to question me or not. I wasn’t particularly in the mood for it, I wanted this day to be over, I wanted everything to go back to normal, I wanted my family back in one piece. Was being the Celestite wolf something my family was really blessed with because it was really feeling like a curse.“Give me space guys,” I said to Callie and Caleb. They looked at each other then silently walked inside, I’d be out here on the porch by myself. I leaned against the railing, looking up at the moon, pondering everything I’d learned today about my mother, my brother, the accident.Do you think I am a curse? Amara asked me. Did I? No, not Amara. Being the Celestite wolf itself, yes. I would much prefer to me normal.We were born to be extraordinary, Amara said trying to cheer me up. It wasn’t working though. Aunt Tasha was all I had left as far as family went, my brother was to

When we returned to the pack house, the weeks felt like they flew by. We trained every morning, I worked with Tasha immediately after to try to figure out my powers, sometimes into the evening. Then I’d usually go to the gym and do solo training on my own to increase my strength, or I’d let Amara out for a run, which I was only allowed to do with Zaine or Caleb, but never alone. Training with Tasha was the most frustrating and exhausting of it all. I did learn that when I felt something strongly enough, I could project it onto others, calmness, anger, sadness, and it would dilute their own feelings, they would feel mine. We still couldn’t figure out the compulsion Amara had done but we kept trying at it. We also continued to work on my ability to separate her from my body. That part wasn’t hard but bringing us back together took a lot out of me. She would run at me, and it would look like she was going to hit me but instead my body would absorb her. The first time I’d don

I woke up from my phone going off for what felt like the hundredth time. Arabella was calling, I silenced it and looked at the time. It was already 2 pm, although I wasn’t too surprised since the sun had already been coming up when I finally went to sleep. I got up slowly, a soreness between my legs from the events of last night. I got up and went to the shower, turning it on hot as could be. As steam filled the shower and I stood in the hot water I felt my body start to relax and sooth itself. Replaying the events of the night before, the night I lost my virginity to the Alpha, him saying how much if a mistake it was. Don’t forget drinking his blood, Amara yawned. Oh shit. That had been the last thing on my mind. Why did I do that? I remember how good he smelled; I remember focusing on the throbbing vein in his neck as we finished together. Did he know what I’d done or did he think he was mistaken when he felt his neck but there was no wound. How did I heal it

It was the evening I hoped would change my life forever. It was my birthday and the night of the gathering. I had been woken up by my brother’s arrival to the house around 10 am with none other than Ms. June, my favorite omega from Cerulean pack and the best cook. She made us pancakes, eggs and my personal favorite, well done, crunchy bacon. Of course, mimosas to go along with girls spa day.Austin drove us down to the nail salon to get our nails done. I was surprised Caleb or one of the other guards didn’t do it but Austin insisted on spending some time with us since it was my birthday. He said Shayla was getting pampered at the packhouse anyway.The guards Zaine had assigned to us always stayed with us, only one stayed back at the house to guard it while no one was there. After our nails were done, we went back to the house where the hear stylists were waiting for us.My black hair was styled in a half up pony tail that was loose and teased some, with a small section lef
