ZADOK’S POV
The pack had been quieter than usual lately.
Since the day I banished Athaliah, the air in the pack was filled with a sense of foreboding. I couldn’t stand it anymore.
I decided to visit the training ground. It’s been a while since I’d been there and I needed some fight to burn off the nerves around me.
Pack members greeted me with a bow as I passed, headed for the one place where I knew I would find Azriel - who had also been distant lately.
I stepped foot on the training ground, and everyone stopped sparring. They got on one knee with their heads bowed. “Alpha.” They chorused in greeting and I nodded my head in approval.
