AZRIEL’S POV

Today would be interesting.

I could tell as I came out of my room, headed for the Alpha’s chambers. We had a mission and I was determined to see that my plan was fruitful - by any means necessary.

However, I needed to confirm something before we began our Journey to the MoonLight pack. I saw Athaliah’s door open and she came out just in time.

I pushed her into her room without a word and shut the door behind us.

“What-” I covered her mouth with my palm, preventing her from screaming while she took me in.

When she was settled, I slowly let down my hand, and pulled her to the wall of the dark room, placing a hand by her side.

Athaliah swallowed, and the sight of it drove something beastly within me. Now was not the time. I needed to be sure of something.

“What’s this about?” She finally asked, jolting me from my thoughts.
