“I...I did.” Charlotte took a deep breath to calm her nerves.
“but...How do you know that?” Of course, she knew he would investigate her but it still was kind of….unexpected.
“Well...uh...we were looking for the Grisham’s after you told us that they weren’t at the camping site when you woke up on Sunday morning. We found two video clips from different cameras at different places…….the first one was from a hotel near the Rowville bus station and the other from the only local store on the road to the camping site. The Grisham’s never went camping with you...did they? Because they were checking into the hotel on Saturday evening…..Almost at the same time that the camera outside the local store captured you walking towards the Coral woods…..all alone.&rdqu
Azraiel pushed his wolf to run faster through the woods. He was struggling to take his mind off the conversation he just had with Charlotte.She was telling the truth. He knew...The terror on her face when she was describing her dream….it was firmly imprinted in his mind. At first, he thought she dreamt of getting hurt...but….but she is actually afraid of hurting others.Her reaction to the dream gave him a peek of her true nature. She wasn't conspiring against him…..She was just scared.But what now?What does this mean? How is he supposed to interpret this? Does this mean she’ll live through her shift? Will she really harm his pack if she lives?Azraiel slowed down to respond to people who greeted him on his run. After a while, he shifted back and went home to take a shower.Once he reached home, he wasted no time and quickl
Matt sat in his office staring blankly at his desktop screen. Alpha had stopped by early in the morning and told him everything that Luna revealed to him. He looked like he believed her. Matt on the other hand was in a dilemma. To trust her or not? She has lied to them before, what's stopping her from lying again? Sure, his Alpha has his reasons to believe her…she is his mate after all... But it doesn't mean he has to do the same…. Right? So, after pondering over it for almost 3 hours, he reached a conclusion. He wouldn't question his Alpha's decision to believe her but he wouldn't trust her either. He'll carry out his duties as a loyal Beta but will keep investigating her without telling his Alpha. Yes, he knew it's going to be extremely difficult to lie to Alpha…especially because he seems to know ab
Azraiel leaned back in his chair and sighed loudly. He rolled his shoulders back and tried to relax…but he couldn’t. He has been extremely busy all day…trying to pull strings and gather information about potential threats. He was also trying to dig into the H.O.P.E. mission that was in operation when Charlotte was in school. The voice that she kept hearing definitely has something to do with that bloody program. He turned his head in time to see the clock strike 6. He cursed under his breath and quickly rushed to his house. He has to visit Charlotte and brief her about her training which is to start from tomorrow. He was already feeling bad since he couldn’t be there with her in the morning…and now he was late. After changing his clothes quickly, he walked out towards her cottage. As soon as he neared her house, her smell invaded his senses. He paused for a second and breathed in a lungful of her scent before walking to her door. Instead
Have you experienced that weird feeling in your stomach when you are nervous or excited? Like the one on the night before an important test…or before meeting your crush? Well...yeah…that’s how Charlotte was feeling when she woke up on Monday morning at 4 in the morning.She was anxious because one…she is going to train….like actually train…which she has never done before....The closest she has done to physical training is the mandatory self-defense class she had to take in school and of course the physical education class…but that’s it….and two…the major reason behind her nervousness .. ..Azraiel is going to be the one to train her…The thought of being near him made her nervous and jittery at the same time. She squeezed her eyes shut and let the water from the shower flow on her face. There are just too many embarrassing moments to cry over. She really has developed
Azraiel grinned to himself while walking out of his house. And…Azraiel never grinned. At least, that’s what everyone in his pack believes.Last night, after his chat with Charlotte, Azraiel went to his house, ate his dinner quickly, and then….He waited.He waited for Charlotte to go to sleep.Why?So, that he can shift into his wolf and hide near her cottage…..All night….Yeah….He knew he behaved like a stalker last night but he couldn’t help it. Till now, Charlotte had stayed at the medical wing, where nurses and doctors kept checking in on her every hour or so. Even he circled the wings sometimes at night.But here, she was alone. Of course, she was safe since he was practically just a minute away from her but it didn’t stop him from worrying about her. Also, his wolf was throwing a tantrum because he was yearning fo
Azraiel discreetly took a deep breath. What the hell is going on? This not only gave him hope that she’d survive after all but scared him to the bone too. He has traveled across the world, met many wolves, watched a lot of shifts…hell he has assisted in a lot of shifts, and yet…he has never seen a wolf making an appearance like this. Sure, sometimes the wolf tries to communicate through emotions and dreams..but speaking clearly? No… He needs to tell her about the possibility or else she’ll worry herself sick over this. Charlotte was looking at the ground, her arms crossed….as if protecting herself from something. “Charlotte…?” He called her name to grab her attention. She abruptly jerked her head up..”Yeah..?” “Don’t panic….okay? Did you read about our wolves in the books I gave you?” She nodded her head in affirmation. “Good…So...you probably already know this..but..let me explain this to you once. Our wolves have voices too..
……………………………Oh, Darling,Don’t be sadDon’t frown and don’t be madHe stays away from youNot because he wants toBut he’s afraidHe’ll lose his heart tooWhen he has already lostHis soul to you!……………………………..Feeling fresh and energetic after her shower, Charlotte quickly went into the kitchen and started making breakfast for herself. She unconsciously started humming a song…. a song that she wasn’t sure even existed.Her mind automatically went to Azraiel again. Today, their skin made contact several times while they were training and it did things to her. Things that invoked feelings…feelings she didn’t want to acknowledg
…………………………“How do you love me after seeing the darkest parts of my soul?”“It wouldn’t be love if I didn’t love you as whole.”…………………………Charlotte leaned back in the sofa and sighed. It was a happy sigh.Although she first had her reservations about Ayleen, she managed to get Charlotte loosen up in a very short time. She really did like her.After telling her everything she could within such a short time, Ayleen promised to give her company after her sessions and left.Charlotte was just waiting for Matt now. He should be here soon, she thought.She lifted herself up and fixed her clothes and hair. She was in high spirits and eager to train more. She was slowly realizing that this wou
