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 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.
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.

The readers' comments on the novel: Werewolf’s Heartsong
I'm really enjoying the story but the overuse of "my mate" starts to get old. Also, I understand that it isn't a final edited copy but lot of grammatical and spelling errors that I'm coming across on all the chapters. Is there someone editing this? Is there a way to remove the update references?...
