Chapter 66
Alora’s POV con’d
I look at Victor, we were both in Athletic wear that wouldn’t hinder our Sprites melding with us. I let
Selena come out, transforming in front of Mater Brock. What I had forgotten, as we had run through
drills, is the shock the scars have given everyone who has seen them. Looking at Master Brock I see
tears, his face grief stricken. “Oh girly.” He gasps out. “what those people have done to you.” Was said
in a horror filled tone.
I’ve never realized how much Master Brock cared about me….till now.
I new what Master Brock saw, the scars were not from training, I had been clearly abused, and that’s
not something any adult Pack, member could stand seeing happen to a pup. It took a few moments for
Master Brock to get himself back together. (This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com)“I
think you and I need to sit down to some tea and have a long talk girly.” He tells me softly “Your
explanation earlier has left out some details.”
I nod, an “Ok” was said in the echoing lyrical voice of Selena’s. When he hears it, he raises his
eyebrows.
“If your wondering about the Echo.” Says Victor with Nicholas’s echoing voice “It’s a Vampire thing.” He
says.
This causes Jaxon, Kian and Galen to laugh, Master Brock snorts then says “A Vampire thing huh?” his
tone wry. He heads into the building, then he’s back after about ten minutes, with four swards and their
sheathes and two belts.
“You two will be practicing with twin blades today.” He says. Oh? Now that’s going to be an interesting
show.
I look over at Victor’s Sprite Nicholas, he nods, there’s a smile on his face too. Selena is excited. ‘I‘ve been practicing with twin swords since Xena was able to shift with you. she tells me.
‘Ok, I want you to have fun, I’ll just be the spectator from inside this time instead of you.’ I was happy to Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
let her out. She’d been trapped inside for eighteen years, alive, but not able to live, there, but not able
to connect. It must have been so lonely, I think sadly. How do you get that time back?
‘I’m free now Alora, I’m with you, don’t feel bad for something that was done when you had barely just come into the world yourself.’ she tries to comfort me, it works a little.
We take the belts and the sword sheaths, we put everything on strapping them in place. Once Selena
and Nicholas were prepped. They walked to the area we were going to practice in. Selena’s excitement
a vibration of emotion.
Master Brock’s POV
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, (This novel will
be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com)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.
(This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com)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.
