Francine was taken aback by his reaction. She doesn't doubt her father's decision, but she was astounded because her father had planned for Azure to live in their home. She was sure he was a stranger, and her father had little knowledge of him.Another reason she reacted the way she did was that she didn't like the strange emotions that had been coursing through her system since she first saw Azure. She has a peculiar sensation that she has never experienced with any other boy.She is fourteen years old now. By the age of eighteen, most shewolves in the Green River Pack already found their fated mate. It is not a pack rule that everyone over the age of eighteen must have a mate. So Francine couldn't help but wonder if Azure was her fated mate.And why is she so enthralled by the idea? Annoying!Azure let out a snort. His lips were pursed. "Why did you react like that? If you think I want to be here in your home, you're wrong; I don't. I don't even know any of you. Zeke just forced me.

Inside the Forenbach's cozy home, the atmosphere was warm and inviting. The scent of freshly baked cookies filled the air as the family chatted and laughed around the living room. Francine was intrigued by their guest, Azure, a handsome young man with an air of mystery surrounding him. "Where do you come from, Azure?" Francine asked curiously, trying to make conversation. Azure felt his irritation rise at the question. He had always been a private person and didn't like people prying into his personal life. He looked at Francine with a snobbish expression and replied, "That is none of your business." Francine was taken aback by his rude behavior. She had never encountered such a disrespectful guest before. Her shock quickly turned to anger as she retorted, "Young man, you are a guest in our home. I expect you to show some manners and respect." Zeke noticed the growing tension between his daughter and Azure. He decided to intervene before things got out of hand. "Francine," he call

Francine and Azure strolled through the bustling shopping mall, exploring the various stores and window displays. Azure's eyes were wide with wonder as he gazed up at the towering skyscrapers that surrounded them, clearly amazed by the hustle and bustle of city life. "Wow," he breathed, taking in the sights and sounds around him. "This is amazing. I've never been anywhere like this before." Francine smiled indulgently, her heart warming at the sight of Azure's childlike wonder. "I'm glad you're enjoying yourself," she said. "There's so much to see and do here. Where would you like to go first?" Azure looked around, clearly overwhelmed by the sheer number of options. "I don't know," he said sheepishly. "I've never been shopping in a mall before. It's all so new to me." Francine took his hand and squeezed it reassuringly. "Don't worry," she said. "I'll show you around. We can start by checking out some of the clothing stores if you like. Maybe you'll find something you like." Azure'

One week later Azure nervously waited for the results of the special test, his heart pounding in his chest. He knew that this test was the key to unlocking his future, and he had spent days preparing for it with the help of Zeke and Francine. They had spent countless hours pouring over textbooks and reviewing important questions that might appear on the test. Zeke had been the one to first suggest that Azure take the special test. "You're too smart to waste your talents," he had said. "You could go places if you just had the right opportunities." And so, with Zeke and Francine's guidance, Azure had thrown himself into his studies, determined to ace the test and secure his future. He won’t let down Zeke. The first man who trusted him and treated him with respect. And now, as he waited for the results, he couldn't help but wonder what his life would be like if he passed. He had always been intelligent; he knows that, but he had never quite known what to do with his talents. With the s

Royce led Azure through the forest, the scent of pine and damp earth filling their noses. As they walked, he pointed out various spots where he had practiced his werewolf training. Azure couldn't help but be impressed by his dedication and skill. Seeing him in his element was something else entirely. "Here's where I worked on my speed," Royce said, gesturing to a stretch of open ground. "And over there, I practiced my stealth." Azure nodded, taking it all in. He had never really given much thought to werewolf training before, but it was fascinating to watch Royce go through his paces. As they continued their walk, Royce began to tell Azure about his first time shifting. He was just ten years old before, alone in the woods and trying to make sense of his strange new abilities. It had been a terrifying and exhilarating experience all at once. "I remember feeling like I was going to explode," he said, his eyes glinting with the memory. "But then, suddenly, it all clicked into place. A
