Chapter 34: Welcome to the Show
Azandra POV
Marcus tagged along as Azandra headed toward Anneliese and Patch to help soften their argument.
Marcus murmured, “I didn’t mean to offend you or be too forward.”
She flushed. “You haven’t won the challenge.”
He put a hand on her shoulder and spun her around as easily as a child spun a top. “You were patient and careful with those children. Our healer Rae could use more of your gentle manner. You could teach her, and future healers in our pack. After all, you seem to soften that crusty wise woman.”
Azandra tensed and he rubbed her shoulder.
Mindful that Anneliese and Patch might be watching, she stepped back. “Tulaska is my mentor.”
“Of course. What do you think of my proposal?”
She really tried to find something wrong with it. The only flaw was that she didn’t want to train healers right now. That was what wise women did, and she was decades away from being one. But teaching at least would allow her to work with healing in a way.
“I’m impressed,” she admitted.
