I opened my eyes a few minutes later to a ringing in my headache. I touched the area where I felt the most pain with my fingers and there was a large piece of glass stuck in my stomach. I pulled it out as a muffled scream escaped my lips. It took a few minutes for my eyes to fully open.
"Azriel," I croaked. He wasn't next to me. I unbuckled my belt and kicked the door open before going out. My legs were wobbly at first as I looked around for Azriel but as soon as my wolf made an appearance, I got my strength back.
"Azriel!" I shouted and ran to him, he was hurt and bleeding. I touched him and he groaned, I lifted his shirt and gently touched his torso and concentrate on healing him, and just like before, his wounds slowly begin to close and he stirred, groaning. I only stop when my head starts to pound in pain.
"Stop that," he groaned, pushing me away.
"Are you alright?" he asked, worried. I nodded and he wiped the blood on my forehead with his fingers gently.
'What happened- "
"Impressive," We froze at the voice, it was that man who followed me last time. My gaze snap to him and he indeed, it was. He wore an all-gray costume and brown shiny shoes. His aura was exuding but it didn't affect me as much as it did last time. Could it be I'm getting used to it now?
"You ran us off the road," I barked, getting to my feet. Anger was rolling off me in waves.
"You're a healer," he said calmly.
"What the fuck do you want from her!" Azriel growled.
"I have a bone to pick with you, Alpha, you infiltrated our land and killed my people," he said, glaring at Azriel.
"And you attack our people every chance you get," I snapped, his eyes softened, and looked at me in deep thought. He took calculative steps toward me and extended his hand to me.
"I'm Zion Lafayette," he said but I didn't shake his hand. he retracted it.
"Lafayette?" Azriel murmured, recognizing the name. I made a mental to ask him about it later.
"What is it you want from me?'
"Just to look at you, you look so much like her," he said. Zion exhaled loudly and smiled at me. I only frowned.
"How do you know my mother,"
"She was my love," he answered casually. " Mine, but your father stole her away from me, that bastard,"
I growled at him, taking a step forward. " Don't utter obscenities against my father if you don't want to die,"
Zion smirked and clapped, " Another Benedict defender, Uncle would love you," His voice was low.
"Uncle?"
"Like I said last time, we are related," he said. My brows creased in confusion and he chuckled.
"I was your father's first cousin," My heart thumped in my chest when he said that, my father didn't mention having family, to be honest, it was a topic that never occurred in our home and this man looked nothing like him.
"You're a dark wolf," I spat.
"I haven't always been. I was part of a pack, your father's pack," he shrugged, looking intently at me.
"Until I say you can leave, and I said, I enjoy looking at... Adira," Zion said, and Azriel growled at him, stepping in front of me.
"Protective, I see. Don't forget she's not yours," he winked.
"I want to know about my parents," I said interrupted.
"Sure, dine with me tonight," he said and walked away urgently.
"Follow me to your room," The female servant said, I felt eyes on me and I turned around to see the white-haired man looking at us. He only groaned and followed the direction Zion went to. sighed.
"Who is that?" I whispered.
"I don't know and I don't care, we need to leave this place asap, that man is bad news and I don't like how he looks at you," Azriel said.
The bedroom we were assigned to was large and clean, it had an adjoining bathroom too.
"I'm exhausted," I threw my body against the bed.
Azriel was looking around the room, and windows before he sighed in frustration.
"The property is heavily guarded," he said. " Why aren't you more worried?"
"I'm too tired to worry," I sighed and closed my eyes.
