Filed to story: Werewolfs Heartsong by Dizzy Izzy
I’d been watching the Pack’s social media threads when I came across the video Sarah had posted. My fury at what that brainless twat had done was enormous. Then video’s of Alora’s battles from two days ago now, and the support she received from her fellow seniors, was heart warming. Then they had caught me watching, I’d felt guilty at first for being caught.
That pup was just standing there, smiling at me. Then that pup had the gal to tease me on my age. I’m not that old, I’m only forty.
My mate had died before we could have pups, leaving me alone in the world without her. I’d barely survived it. Training that pup
Damien and then Darien had helped me. But it was when I was given the responsibility of training Alora, that had truly brought me back to life.
This little pup had a special place in my heart. I knew her family was abusing her, I could almost see it in a cloud surrounding her.
She had seemed to barley be alive when I first met her. As I trained her, I watched her grow. I watched her determination to live increase each day. Her power increased with my training. Even with her true power bound she had become a force of nature. 2
I was more proud then I had a right to be for my involvement in that. I wasn’t her father, no matter how I wished I was. I was her
Master Trainer though, and I was happy to be in that position. I could provide her with the spirit she needed to fight for her future.
And fight she did, I watched this incredibly brilliant pup, advance further and faster then I could have expected.
When I had come up to her, there was a new scent. It took a moment but I recognized a Vampire Hybrid scent, and it was coming not just from the young wolf with Jaxon, but Alora. That had surprised me, because she’s never smelt that way. Stepping back and using my second sight, I was shocked. Her power had increased, almost five times what it had been originally. 0 as
Her power fairly glowed, she had Clan bonds wrapped around her. Her bond to Jaxon, Victor, and the twin Mountainmovers was very strong. Far stronger than any other Clan bond I had seen before. The connection was in blood, and spirit, unbreakable, the only way to beak them was death, or for Alora to break it herself.
The thread that’s been wrapped around her heart, connecting her to Damien, the reason I was so sure he would be her mate, was now thicker, almost a chain. I had been disappointed when her mate turned out not to be Damien, then I was heartbroken for this pup when that mate had rejected her. Damien never would have rejected Alora. That boy loved this pup.3
Stepping back I had told Alora we would need to talk over tea. When it came to training, Alora admitted to not being in the right head space for truly intense training yet. After everything she’s been through in the last forty eight hours, I believed her. So I had them do drills. I watched gradually as her stress dissipated, her mind centered, and peace settled over her. Drills have always helped her through whatever was eating her.
I get a message in from the Headmaster of the Alpha University about Damien’s progress. He’s won every single one of his fights so far. Looks like the boy will be home soon. Looking at Alora I can’t help but think ‘Good’. When Alora looked at me and smiled I knew she was ready for more. I asked her what she wanted to do, she’s never shied away from any of her training, she wasn’t lazy. 2
If anything, I’ve had to keep her from pushing herself to hard. She tells me she wants to fight with swords in her Sprite form. This will mean I get to meet a knew part of Alora, and her Gamma. When she transformed…..all those scars….my poor pup, they didn’t just abuse her, they tortured her. My heart broke at this evidence. I just wanted to wrap her up, tell her everything would be all right. 10
The ones on her neck distressing me the most. It looked like they had tried to kill her multiple times. I’m more glad then ever before I came into her life, I gave her the training she needed to make sure those people could NEVER touch her again. It had taken a bit for me to collect myself. After I went for the swords. Vampires traditionally fought with twin blades. 3
Although when we had first trained we hadn’t been aware of her Sprite, we had trained with swords anyway. She needed to know how to fight more than just another werewolf. I grabbed four swords in their sheaths and two belts, after seeing their height
I had grabbed Longswords. The two had put everything on, I was pleased to see her new Gamma had done this effortlessly. I could see the power inside him, he had more than any would judge by his stature.
But that leanness was deceptive, it was also a Vampire trait. He was obviously conditioned and trained regularly. Knowing what I did of his family line, I had no doubt he was training since before he could walk. That meant he would be an incredible asset to
Alora. The two went to the middle of the arena, and we styed back to give them space. I then signaled them to start. 2
The deadly dance that followed was truly a sight to see. Their movements graceful, sure, and strong. Each connecting blow sent a chink of sound across the field. I could almost feel the sound in my chest. Sparks would actually fly, there steps back and forward, the spins and dips. Out of the corner of my eye, all three of the other pups are recording this. 2
I had cameras set up all over the place in the arena, this was so I could better spot flaws and adjust and train accordingly. I was grateful today that I had. I’ll need to make a video file and give it to the Alpha. I look over when Darien comes in, he’s followed by his mate, Matt and Sarah’s three friends. Or at least they had been, but not now.
They come forward, eyes wide and amazed at what they were seeing. I look back and Selena is flipping away from Nicholas and landing in a crouch swords out. Nicholas put one foot back and gets into a slight crouch, swords out. Then in incredible bursts of speed and power came together, swords sparking, the dance close up, then Selena’s kick connects to Nicholas’s chest.
He flies back, feet skidding the ground causing dust to rise. Selena is running forward then suddenly jumps up high, she came down swords swinging. Nicholas raised his swords in time to block that blow and the four after that. Selena was almost floating above with the attack, Nicholas pushes her back with his swords. That’s when it hits me.
Master Brock’s POV con’d
She could very easily defeat him, and he knew it, but they were having fun, neither trying to really defeat the other, they were just happy to have an opponent like them. They were both the same type of Hybrid. The joy I could feel radiate off the battle field was amazing, the smiles on their faces bright. They were each enduring a test of stamina, her, in holding back, him, at keeping up.
They made a magical sight, both had their hair unbound. Their hair, one a midnight black with stars, the other all white, seamed to be alive, moving in either a shadow or light vapor. Selena’s Lunar Princess regalia in place and visible.
Serenity’s POV
Watching my mate break the counter with his fists this morning while feeling his emotional turmoil through our bond, had been heart wrenching. After this mornings debacle, Darien had held on to my hand and had Matt follow us, we had gone back to our room. Once there he had Matt sit, Matt did, I stood by one of the book shelves, watching. My mate paced around for a bit. 2
Finally he spoke “How long ago did Sarah give you that sachet?” he asked him.
“Remember that fight we had, how I said I couldn’t be your friend and Beta if you were friends with Alora?” Matt asked him
Darien nods and said “Yeah, why?”
“It was about a month before that. I had been wanting to break up with Sarah, I hadn’t liked how she treated Alora.” Darien looks at him in surprise, Matt nods then continued “She was complaining how you all were fooled by Alora, that she was just a mistake her mother wasn’t able to abort, despite trying.”
That struck me with horror, that horribly evil bitch tried to kill Alora from the moment she was conceived.
