Chapter 67: Alpha Azrael!

Azrael looked around him and saw that he was surrounded by werewolves from all over the various parts of the gigantic community with gazes on him.

He had killed the previous Alpha and usurped the throne.

His eye glow had shone brighter and redder as he stood isolated in the middle with Alex by his side, watching patiently and with a shocked expression. Azrael had usurped the role of leadership for an entire pack, the James Paterson Pack.

He stood tall and proud as gazes were tailored in his direction.

In the midst of all these, something strange began to happen.

Some marks started to appear on Azrael's body, these marks were transferring from James Paterson's dead body to his.

Every single line of that mark created a deeply etched and painful tattoo kind of drawings on his body.

Alex noticed that Azrael was shaking uncontrollably, she couldn't understand why he was shaking so much and appearing to be enduring a painful moment.

She glanced up briefly to check the other members of the pack, and it was then that she noticed that the other members of the pack were also shaking, unable to stand upright as if under intense discomfort.

Their eyes were glazed over momentarily as they whimpered and made hushed sounds of discomfort and agonizing pain.

~rrrrrroooooaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrr~  Azrael suddenly roared in agony as the pain reached a crescendo.

~rrrrrroooooaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrr~ Every werewolf in sight roared in obedience to their new Alpha.

This was the mark of a massive power shift and transference. A new Alpha werewolf has been crowned, and this is the supernatural investiture.

Azrael grimaced in pain and slowly allowed the claws on his hands to extend outward.

~crrrrrrrrrhhh~

Azrael used his claws to tear away his top to reveal well chiseled abs, like an expertly made sculpture.

All around his body were lines, strange lines with runes written on them.

The runes kept moving haphazardly, changing data frequently.

The strange figures that were appearing on his skin couldn't be understood by anyone.

They kept changing continuously like an algorithm.

It suddenly stopped, and a feeling of relief washed over Azrael. Both Azrael and every other member of the pack sighed at the same time.

"uuuuurrgggggghhhhhhhhh"

After the marks had stopped everyone was filled with fresh vigor like they had been rejuvenated.

The late Alpha James was a cursed Alpha, suffering the Bianca's curse, his curse was also hanging over the head of his pack members.

Although they do not have the immortality advantage of the curse, they do suffer the monthly torment that comes with the curse.

Now that the Alpha status has changed to someone who doesn't have the curse, the torment has ended and they were now free.

The signs drawn on the body of Alpha Azrael are a signal of the ascension of a new power, something that transcends the norm.

Azrael isn't just a normal werewolf, he is someone who already is written in history to later take the position of the Alpha King, a special title bestowed on the most powerful and greatest werewolf there is.

Azrael had just started his journey down that path without even knowing it, and already, he has a pack at his beck and call.

One by one, the entire werewolf army roared in unison.

"Rrrrrooooooooooaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrr"

Azrael felt his strength skyrocket at an astronomical speed.

He felt connected to every single werewolf present like they were his limbs.

He didn't have to make a pact with them because Alpha James already did that, all he did was inherit that pact but something strange followed that inheritance.

He also got the ability to amplify his strength with that of his pack.

He could control the movement of power and flow of strength of both himself and his pack, he could tell where any member of his pack was at any time, it was an outrageous set of new abilities.

Azrael finally relaxed after some time had passed and turned to Alex.

He reached out with both arms and hugged her tightly.

"I thought you were dead. It was the most scary period of my life... I couldn't live comfortably knowing you were somewhere, did he mistreat you in any way...?" Azrael spoke softly to his lover.

Alex looked at Azrael and smiled, "And if he did, what are you going to do? Kill him again?" Alex widened her smile.

"I...I" Azrael didn't know what to say.

"It's okay Azrael... We are together, that's all that matters..."

At this time, an exciting clapping sound, followed by cheering from the side and those around Alpha Azrael...

"Congratulations Alpha...  You found your soul mate"

"Congratulations Alpha..."

"Alpha Azrael... Sounds different.." Azrael turned to the side when he heard the last speaker.

It was none other than nurse Cheyenne who had spoken those words.

Azrael went close to her and gave her a half hug. At this moment Alex found herself jumping into the middle of both Azrael and Cheyenne.

"Who is this..?" Alex spoke territorially.

Azrael wanted to choke on laughter as he noticed the jealous gaze of Alex.

He couldn't even respond as he fell on his butt laughing loudly.

The other pack members couldn't help but laugh. Through their connection with their Alpha, they could deduce the humor easily.

This only happens in times of proximity, when they are close, they could feel what their Alpha is feeling and vice-versa, however, this rule differs when they are far away, in that case, the Alpha could feel what the members of his pack are feeling but not the other way around.

Azrael went to Alex and picked her up. He carried her in his arms like one would carry a baby in a cradling manner.

"My lover, by now you should know that I have no other..., Cheyenne is my friend, she helped me and kept my secret when it counted..., I am just greeting her..."

Alex was initially pouting, she immediately softened her gaze after hearing that explanation. It was at this time that she discovered just how jealous she felt.

"It's not like I don't trust you or anything..., however, hugging other girls is not allowed..." Alex spoke with her arms folded.

"Okay, my love" Azrael responded.

Alex smiled in satisfaction.

Azrael raised his head and spoke loudly to address his people, "Let's go home....".

His voice resonated throughout the entire camp and everyone was compelled to obey.
