CHAPTER 26 The Blue Moon
"Why were you too quick to accept?"Azriel asked as he showed me the gym.
"Money is good," I shrugged " By the way, you have to tell me what to do, like I said, I haven't done this before,"
"You're his mate.You shouldn't be some trainer," he said.
"As I said, I have no wolf and-" He stopped walking
"What is your name?"
I didn't know whether to feel offended that he didn't know my name.We spent yesterday and today together!
"Adira Wade," I mumbled.
"Are you hurt that I don't know your name, Adira?"
Adira, I repeated, it sounded good from his tongue too.Damn these brothers.
"No, I'm not mad,"
My voice sounded hostile and he smirked.Azriel showed me around and what he expected of me.
"There is a guidebook you'll follow, it contains everything the girls need to learn," he said.
"Is it not the same with the boys?"
"No,"
"But why?Isn't important they acquire the same skills too?"
"For what?Girls don't even go to war," he said and I stopped walking.
"That's unfair, what about the girls who aspire to serve the pack in the army?"I asked seriously.This is the largest and strongest pack in the realm, they had the best and largest militia yet they were all men.How unfair.
"Oh, I know.They send our brave soldiers gifts, cook them hot meals, and shop for them.Other ladies prefer to be on their knees or back, pleasing them," he winked and I pulled a face in disgust.
"What I'm trying to say is; our females use their talents elsewhere but the fighting ground,"
"But what if there is an attack?"
"An attack has never made it close to the pack because they are many men on the front lines ready to die to protect them and besides, they receive basic training," I grumbled.
"How disappointing," I grumbled as we continued the tour.
"I need to buy more gym clothes now since I'll be spending more time here, and also, I'll need a timetable," I sighed and he nodded.We went into the restaurant to have lunch.The restaurant wasn't like any other, they had nice round chairs of four, and it was grande.
"So, why are you not at the palace," I asked him.
"I can ask the same question,"
"You know why," I was quick to respond.
"Well, you may not have a wolf yet but you could live in the palace, to be acquainted with the people there,"
"We think it best to do that when I have a wolf,"
"Yeah, people there can be malicious," he murmured more to himself.
