Go on, what thoughts are you having? He said as his breath fanned my neck, then someone hit on the door.
Alpha Stefan, the horse is ready.
Alright, I will be there in a minute.
Alright, your highness. The voice from the other side said, then we heard his step retrieving.
Let's go.
Where? I asked but he didn't reply, he move his gaze from me to the tea, it only means one thing, he wanted me to drink everything, I gulped the entire content even though it was a bit hot, then I saw him, smile, I wonder what he added to the tea, but it felt like I have energy.
Do you know how to ride a horse? Was the first thing he asked as soon as we get out of the Castle, pointing a horse in front of me. I rolled my eyes at him, I might not be good in war but not with a horse, I have been riding one since I turned fourteen, and I could go for a horse race with Leonid. Fine then, get on the horse. Just maybe, he assumed I could because he got no reply.
Where are we going?
Follow me!!! He gave the horse a nudge with his two legs slightly and drag the rein, as his horse take off, I too did the same thing, I ride behind him, he was faster than I am, and I could see him slow down for a bit, for me to catch up with him, when he noticed I am close he will increase his speed.
What thou fuck is he? How could he be good with everything except words? His speed volume is only compared to the rushing wind. I was panting heavily, as I ride faster, to meet his pace like my energy is going to get exhausted, he finally came to a halt, and I watch him jump down, I let a sign of relief, as I try to increase my speed, then again I could see someone coming closer to him.
You are here? I thought you will never come.
Why wouldn't I? This is still my pack, whoever threatened Eclipse's pack, threatened me.
Father, didn't want to bother you, since you are now the alpha of your pack.
It's not bothering me, being an alpha didn't stop me from carrying out my duties as the pack Zeta, once a General always a General.
Hm! I missed you. Her hand was on Stefan's chest when I got there, she was the first to notice. You came with a companion. She said with a tight face, I could tell, she is not happy to see me.
Oh, yes! Stefan gives me his hand as I climb down by his assistant. From now on, she will train with us, she wants to be a warrior, I bet she lacks many things, so you should train her, she is now under your team.
What? Hazel yelled then pulled Stefan's hand, I bet she doesn't want me here. What is wrong with you? How could you bring her here? She is not...
She is part of us, she is my Luna, so she should be accepted here if I am accepted here.
Stefan!!!
Stop already, you should do as you are told.
What are they arguing about? I wonder, probably it's about me, she doesn't want me here, I better leave, taking a few steps toward them. Is there a problem?
Don't you know what it means to mind your business? Hazel's voice was furious, she send shivering into my vein, Stefan pulled her hand, then he whispered something to her ear, only she could hear, she signed then turned and face me.
Go with her, I need to see the alpha. That was Stefan's words before leaving, the man's words are always brief, not a man of too many words but a terror of the night.
Here! She throw a sword at me, which caused me to fall to the floor, it was different from the ones in our pack, it was heavy, I wonder, how could someone lift this heavy sword.
What idiot? She mouthed. Stand up! She commanded, I try to stand from the floor while struggling with the sword
Now, you should swing the sword to defend every arrow spear at you, you understand? She yelled I nodded, she speared the first one, I didn't bother to use the sword, caused I can't lift it.
Used the sword, slug. I try raising the sword but I can't the arrow almost meets me, so I settle on avoiding the arrows.
Your sword, lazybones. She said as she continues to fire the arrows toward me, at first she was slow but now, she is fast, like she is bent on killing me, so I abandon every thought of using the sword, I swing, using my hand and my legs to kick the arrows.
What a goldbrick. She voices then throw the arrow away. You are stubborn right, I told you, used your sword but you choose to default my orders, now, your punishment.
Punishment?
Yes, didn't Stefan tell you, that, every soldier that disobeys gets a cute reward and that reward is to get into combat with me?
But...
Here!!! She throw the dagger at me, I catch fast, this one is lighter, I breathe in relief, she changed to me as I lower myself making her jumped over me then I turned and fast her as she too had turned, now our daggers clashes and the only sound we could hear is whack!!! Whack!!!
I was getting weak, but Hazel still have all the strength in her, as she swing with one kick of her, my dagger is on the floor, then I thought of using my hands, she rake my dagger from the floor, and I catch it in space, then I thought she was been fair, all maybe it's part of the training, I heard a sharp noise, when I turned, she had slit my hand with the dagger in her hand, seeing blood from my arm, I used my boot to hit her waist, causing her to fall towards the dust but then she claw her nail into the floor, I watch as she is now, in all four, when she turned her gaze, I knew I was doom This isn't training she was mad at me, I have no idea, what I did to make her mad, she hurt me, so it's only right that I defended myself. right in front of me, she shifted into her wolf form, her eyes are red, and her fangs were long, her black spotless fur erect.
No, she is going to attack me and every one of them is staring at me, probably waiting that I too will shift, she hops to attack me, I closed my eyes, waiting for the pain, as she dive.
