Naya's POV

He has done it again. Zeke has successfully humiliated me in the presence of the most respected people in his pack.

The annoying part was that no one said anything, despite knowing how close we were. It felt funny and angry to be betrayed by those you love.

Kyle asked me to understand, and I am trying. I seriously am! It was frustrating to see Zeke go back to the man he promised me he wouldn't go back to. Did he really promise me? I exhaled. He didn't exactly promise me. I was a fool to have trusted him. You know what? If he wanted to behave this way or act like I was a nuisance, maybe I should let him.

"Don't do that, Naya." Naya whispered from behind. "He is our mate. It would only hurt us if we got away from him. As much as he is trying to deny it, the both of you are meant to be with each other."

I shook my head. "He is not making it any easier."

Naya sighed. "For now, you can just replace comfort in Kyle.

He is willing, right?"

I closed my eyes, remembering the time I dozed off on his shoulders. When we were asked to alight, he didn't say anything about that. Was I going too fast?

"I don't think so. You had s* with them. The thing I wonder is why it's so hard to get in bed with them again."

I scoffed. "Is that all you can think about? Getting f*vcked by a jerk?"

Naya shrugged, not in the least offended by my tone.

"Nope. Now that I think about it, its actually not hard.

There's so many emotions that need to be out of place for it to walk again. It was easier because Zeke didn't have many responsibilities."

She wasn't listening to me. Urgh! I turned to replace Elder Rosalie already staring at me. Sometimes I forget that the way I converse with my wolf is different from the way I converse with a host. Time moves faster in my head.

"Elder Rosalie..." I bowed a little, preparing myself mentally for a scolding. We met at the blood moon pack. It meant she was aware of where I went. After all, she was the watcher.

Her facial expression was unreadable, and it made me nervous.

I pointed to the doors, wishing I was with Kyle at the moment. He still needed to work on his possessive skills, but I knew it would take effect once they were eighteen years old. Then they wouldn't even let me out of sight. And when I turned eighteen, we would be able to feel each other's emotions.

"Are you sure?" Naya asked skeptically.

I shrugged. "I have a feeling that's how it works. Let's just wait and see. For now, this woman is making me nervous.

Remember, I skipped training for my mates. She must have been furious."

Naya nodded before slipping into the darkness. Coward!

She left me all alone to face Elder Rosalie.

Elder Rosalie was still watching me with sternness. Her hands were folded tightly in front of her, and her feet were bare. Although I wondered where she got these clean white gowns from, The gowns the elders wore were usually spotless.

It made me feel unworthy of their presence sometimes.

Like I was filthy. "I should leave." My legs pushed the rest of my body towards the doors.

"I felt your power twice. They were so far away, so I knew it had to be you." Her hard voice made me freeze. Her voice has always been raspy and unforgiving, but her smile is sometimes warm. Unlike the rest of them, There was one elder I would prefer to stay with, apart from Elder Rosalie.

He was the one who healed me. Elder Derek? Elder Archer? I frowned. One belonged to war, the other belonged to nature. His name, Archer, should make him the one I wanted to stay with. He has never said more than two words. Goodness, I have never been so confused about Elder before.

"Are you listening to me?" Elder Rosalie frowned.

"Huh?" g**t! I wasn't listening at all. I just wanted to wash the stink off my body and change into a cleaner dress.

Everyone was giving me the look. Soon, questions would begin to pour in. I glanced around. I have never missed the trees and grasses as much as now.

The blood moon pack was more desolate than I thought.

They had strange equipment that made life better for them.

I could care less about those things. We all lived healthy lives here.

I blinked. Enough of my thinking. I needed to focus. "I am listening."

Elder Rosalie scoffed. "You took a lot of time to reply to that question. I should leave you to rest."

I shook my head vehemently. Leave me to rest. No. She probably had something urgent to tell me. "Elder Rosalie, I am sure you have something to tell me. What is it?"

"You used your powers more than twice. I felt it, and if I can feel it, it means the elders did too."

My jaws dropped as shock coursed through me. "You felt my powers all the way from the blood moon pack?"

"I told you, we are all connected. The first time was when we all came to see for ourselves. Although they couldn't see where you were exactly, somehow you blocked them from seeing Zeke and Kyle."

I frowned. "Did you tell them where we went?"

Elder Rosalie shook her head. "If any of them is aware, it is because of their wisdom. We know things you don't want us to know. It's in our nature."

My heart began to pound. "If Zeke replaces out that it's because of me, Elder Freya was aware of where we went...

You have to hide it until..."

Elder Rosalie folded her hands across her chest. "Until when? Do you think he doesn't know that you float out of your body?"

Damn it! She was right. Zeke and Kyle already knew. They were no fools either.

"I don't even know what I am capable of doing. I can watch, heal, invade people's minds, and block. What else can I do?" I asked in exasperation. No, I was not really excited that I could do everything. It only meant training. More training from the look of things. Elder Rosalie didn't seem surprised at my mention of different powers. It was as if she expected it. After all, she was ancient. Or so I thought. "In all my years in this realm, I have never seen a born elder."

I was wrong. She just hid her shock well, unlike me, whose mouth went gaping all the time something new happened, like a fish. "Am I the first of my kind?" I asked foolishly.

Elder Rosalie nodded. She didn't see my question as stupid, even though we both knew the answer. "You are the first of your kind. You may have inherited all our powers and more from the elderly."

I paused. "Does that mean I am a direct descendant of the elderly one?"

Her sharp gaze made me shut up. Don't act naive, Naya.

You know this already. When we were created, she gave us useful power. Now you have her blood and spirit flowing through you. You may just be what we need, Naya Cod."

She wasn't acting like I was needed at all. None of them were. Maybe I should let everyone know how useful I am in the pack. "Everyone considers me a lower-than-average omega. Shouldn't I let everyone know how useful I am?"

"And risk a war? We had attacks in two days. If we weren't here to stop the last attack, the pack wouldn't be here.

Those monsters were crawling all over the place. Tell me, what happened?"

Baron Diego must have felt Zeke left the pack unprotected or in the hands of incompetent people for him to attack. He attacked behind our backs while planning for our deaths too. Could it be that the elders came to our rescue? "He requested my heart and nearly killed Zkee and Kyle in the process. I guess that was when you felt my power. I had to stop him."

"You couldn't kill everyone just for those things, right? Did you imagine them dead?"

I shook my head. If only it was that simple. "No. I wanted them to be torn into pieces. That's what they did. From the inside out, they destroyed themselves. That's why I stink." I sniffed my dress.

"You need more training. Elder Roy will And what was it you said again?" She squinted her beady eyes. "Yes! Invade minds. Did you do that to someone?"

I chewed my lower lips. "I wasn't feeling too well at that time. They are here, though. If you want, you can talk to them." I frankly could not explain what I did to them. After all, I was unconscious for some time. "I was unconscious for some time."

"That should be when the work began." Elder Rosalie muttered to herself. She was taking all of it better than I was. It amazed me. I knew that when I entered my room and replayed the events, I was surely going to freak out.
