Thread: Alpha and Omega (SilverDreamer x JacksAreWild)

Azura stared at her father as if he had just declared that the moon had always been cheese and she was about to eat it. Sasha? The daughter of the Captain who can barely keep her hair tied up Sasha? Her father stared at her from across his desk as if she was ten years old again and being an insolent cub. Yes, that Sasha Azura. She is the one to guide, protect and make sure I get to Dacia all in one piece? Her father did not answer her this time but simply watched her as she let the knowledge sink in. Her father had waited a long time to have pups but when he had them, he had them thick and fast. Azura was the only daughter out of five sons all born within five years. Regrettably at times Azura had been the first born and her father had always been the strictest, coldest and most demanding with his daughter. Even now with his hair had changed from pure raven to a variety of shades of grays had nestled at the temples and his broad shoulders had shrank slightly he could make her nervous with a simple look. Yet she is the one when... I am aware. Her father looked down at his desk as his steel grey eyes scanned the paper work before him. She also was the one that... I am aware of that also Azura. Yet she is the only female guard we have and your innocence is to remain intact and unquestionable when you get to Dacia. None of the male guards are going to escort you as far as our boundary gates let alone for a month alone. Azura sighed quietly as she tilted her head back before she simply nodded her head slightly to her father and rose to her feet. When is the Lady of the guard to arrive father? She was suddenly very much aware that this would be the last time she saw her father for at least a year and yet his cold manner remained as frozen as ever. She remained on the other side of the desk as she waited his answer. She will arrive in two hours time. I am certain by then you shall have said your farewells to your brothers and your mother and be packed ready to go on time. Of course father. She said firmly and quietly as she bowed her head to him and then left him to his paperwork. It was only once the door was closed did he glance upwards and to the solid door that sealed him in his office as he wondered where the last two decades had gone. ------- Two hours had passed and now Azura was stood in the hallway of the large building. Her foot impatiently tapped the wooden flooring. Her few bags had already been packed and her personal items had been put into a small pouch for her to carry at her waist. She was already dressed in traveling clothes and a warm cloak. Her mother had said her farewells and gone to a friends house to mourn the departure of her daughter and the understanding she would be in a house with five males alone. Her brothers of nineteen, eighteen, seventeen and sixteen had been the ones to show most emotion in her departure. They teased her about the fact it was Clumsy Sasha who was going to take her to Darcia and likely get them lost along the way. It was them that gave her gifts of small but significant emotional care and it was them that answered the door to Sasha, four sets of male eyes locked onto the female wolf and burst into laughter before they ran past her and out into the late autumn night. Azura, paled at the sound of the laughter and approached the door with dread in her heart as her gaze locked on the female guard who looked more like she had just escaped a run in with a violent hedge. In comparison Azura looked as if she had been carefully crafted. Her dark hair had been pinned up and out of the way along the nape of her neck. Everything was in place from her cloak to her winter boots. You will have to excuse my brothers. They are a little excited to see me leave and the emotions of gone to their heads. Azura for the hundredth time questioned her fathers choice. If the woman could not even take care of herself, how was she going to keep her safe. Do you need some more time to prepare Lady of the guard?
