It was dark by the time they got to Ty’s pack. They reached a clearing and Ty could now feel the full force of the New Moon. He placed Azura on the ground and let out a loud howl. There was short wall built of boulders that stretched out far in either direction, with a broken part that formed an entrance. He picked her up again and continued through the opening. He had gotten halfway through the open field when two large wolves approached him. “Alpha Ty, where have you been? And who is that you have with you?” the larger of the two asked him. He was a copper color with dashes of white and had green
After much arguing, James finally conceded defeat and Ty went to Azura’s room to stay the night. He said it would not be safe for Ty to be in the room with her as the medicine worked on her body, but Ty wasn’t having it. He pulled the Alpha card and James had no choice, but to obey. As he lay on another cot in her room, he watched her carefully and listened to her heart beat, still very weak. As they carried on into the night, Ty began to struggle to keep his eyes open.He had almost fallen asleep when something caught his eye. Azura, again, began to glow. A blue hue starting from her hair and soon ran through her entire body,
Four days had passed and Azura had still not awaken. Ty grew more restless with each passing moment. He stayed with her at night and tried to visit as much as he could during the day, but he had important matters of the pack to attend to. Food had grown more and more scarce as the hunters brought back less and less. The lake which served as their primary source of water was beginning to dry. Crops began to either wither or not yield vegetables. Members of the pack were growing anxious and scared. This had been going on for months and the hunters now went deeper into the forest to hunt, but this was too dangerous to continue doing.
Azura went down the hall and came down the stairs, following the trail Ty left of his unique fragrance. She had gotten down to foyer when she paused in confusion. She could smell the mint, but there were so many doors, she didn’t know which one to choose. Looking around, there wasn’t anyone in sight. She thought maybe she would knock at each one until someone answered. She followed her nose to the door in the middle. She was about to knock when the door swung open and her eyes widened in a bit of a shock. It was Ty standing in the door way dressed very handsomely in a green long-sleeve shirt and khaki pants.
Ty led Azura out to the patio. She realized that this was the view she had seen in the paintings of scenery in the foyer. It was very breathtaking. There was an enormous lake and snow filled mountains in the distance. “Ty, who did the paintings in the other room?” she asked him curiously, as he began to light the fire pit that sat in the middle. He smiled, “The ones in the foyer? My mother did those. After my father passed she needed something to get her mind off of it. Then we realized she had a gift.” “Wow, that’
Azura woke up sweating and panting. Her dream felt so real. She couldn’t understand what the dreams meant. She was startled by a knock at the door. She threw on a robe and went to see who was there. When she opened it, Regina stood in the hall smiling. “I’m sorry if I woke you Azura,” she said seeing Azura’s hair a mess and still in pajamas. “Oh not at all, Alpha Regina. What can I do for you?” she asked, surprised by her visit. “Azura, please, call me Regina and I wanted to ask if you would accompany o
Just as Kiara had said, there was a game night at the Lupinn household. Kiara and her parents arrived at sunset and were in the Lounge Room with Regina. Azura had taken a nap exhausted from the long walk she had this morning, wrapped in the gorgeous quilt she had seen in the Square earlier. Ty had one of guards that followed them purchase it and place it in Azura’s room before they got back. She was so surprised when she saw it that she hugged it while she slept like a baby. Ty had been out tending to a couple of important matters of the pack while she rested. Jay had arrived with his mate, Tara when Ty finally returned. Derek came in next
The sunlight flooded Ty’s room and he woke, suffocating a pillow. His arms had been wrapped so tight around it that it hurt as he pried them apart. He looked on either side of him, but he lay alone in his king size bed. His heart ached and his body felt weak. He wondered if he had only dreamed of Azura sleeping beside him last night. As he got out of bed, he noticed that his body was aching and he thought maybe he was coming down with a cold. He washed up and went downstairs for some orange juice to boost his immune system. When he entered the dining room, his mother sat alone, enjoying a boiled egg and he realized it must already be noon.
Azura woke in an unfamiliar place, covered in flies and her head pounding. She looked around, while swatting them away and saw the rotting corpses of both human and wolves. She gasped and tried to back away from them. Looking up, she realized she was in a giant hole. WTF she thought, her heart pounding, where am I? Azura, you need to find a way out. The familiar voice in her head spoke to her. She checked her boot for her dagger. She sighed in relief, they forgot to check her boots. It was nearly sunset and she could hear the faint voices of men above her, laughing and cursing.
