Chapter 148

• Azalea returned back to her room with a heavy heart, her face etched with sadness that she couldn't quite hide. The weight of disappointment hung over her like a dark cloud as she closed the heavy wooden door behind her. Serena, her human friend who had accompanied her to the pack, noticed the change in Azalea's demeanour and concern flickered in her eyes.
• "Is everything okay, Azalea?" Serena asked softly, her voice filled with empathy and understanding.
• Azalea sighed, her shoulders slumping slightly as she turned to face her friend. She knew she couldn't keep the truth from Serena any longer. "The alpha of our pack refused to grant my wish of bringing you here to visit," she confessed, her voice tinged with regret.
