Genesis' Spirit of Goddess

Azah POV

Opening my eyes and starting at an unfamiliar dark gray wall. Confused about where I could be, I made a slight movement underneath the duvet cover. Only to see a strong man’s arm tight around my waist, pulling me closer to his side of the bed. My body stiffens at first but slowly I began to relax into his embrace. I didn’t question who it was, it may just all be a dream right now. This feels right. There’s something about his arms wrapped around my waist, back against his chest as I feel his chest rise and fall with each sleeping breath. This feels like home. He is home. I shut my eyes again, going to a dreamless sleep.

--------

Waking to the sound of the pitter-patter of the shower. I rose quickly from the pillow, looking at my surroundings. I woke up to see myself sleeping on a king-size bed. The room is vast in space, bigger than my room and bathroom combined. The bedroom had a theme of dark grey and orange accent design. I heard the shower stop. Shit, how drunk was I to go back home with another man? This definitely gives off a bachelor room vibe. Pulling up the duvet covers my eyes closed, then peeping with one eye to check if I still had my clothes on. Ok not bad, I’m wearing an oversize t-shirt. Cool, cool, cool, no need to freak out Azah. The question now is how did it get on my body?

Quickly glancing up as I hear footsteps coming near. If this is a dream, don’t wake me just yet. Cause the physique view, of this man is worth dreaming over. If we had fucked then my only regret is that I don’t remember the glory details. My eyes went straight to his hard eight-pack abs, and a towel below his hips not missing to show his v-shaped muscle that runs diagonally from his hip bones to the pelvic region.

“You’re awake,” he says softly but in such a sexy way. That same voice. OH SHIT! Carefully, gazing upwards to his face. My heart skips a beat. He has shoulder-length hair with deep wave curls. A sculptural face, strong jaw with thick smooth full lips. His skin is a sepia, reddish-brown which the sun had richened to a blessing. To instantly find an attraction to his voice is one thing but his eyes. Those luminous heterochromia eyes. His left eye is topaz brown, shinning gold that reflects back light. The right eye is light hazel with gold flecks, that changes colour in reflection to its surround. Right now it looked like a mixture of forest green.

Remembering to breathe “ Where am I? And who are you?”

An enigmatic smile came on his face “My name is Zion. You passed out after the transformation with your spirit. I decided to take you here at my place.”

Oh yeah, did that actually happen? Whoa.

Zion. Shit Alpha Zion. Did I sleep with him on his bed?

“Alpha Zion.”

He noticeably winced a bit when I said his formal name.

“Zion. Just Zion.”

“Ok. Zion,” I said as I straighten up on the bed and swung my legs to the black marble floor.

Pulling down the shirt that reaches mid-knee, I notice him observing me.He cleared his throat before speaking “You have a couple of missed calls and texts. ” he said while pointing to the nightstand behind me.

I took my phone and saw that the girls sent multiple facetime calls and group chat messages asking where I was and if I’m alright. Funny no calls from my family? Hmmm, I’m going to call them soon.

Zion pops behind his husky voice sends shivers throughout my body as he says “ Your family knows.”

“What?” I ask.

“If you’re worried why they didn’t call it’s because they know.”

“Oh ok”

“You up for training?”

“Training” I’m confused as to what he was talking about.

Zion raised his eyebrow and says “Josiah’s training class, isn’t that today?”

“OH SHIT ITS SUNDAY! Wait I don’t have anything to wear. Can I just say I’m not feeling well because of … oh damn I can’t. Sophia.”

He opens a sliding door wall, revealing a large walk-in closet. Simple as the room looks it had a pretty expensive design. I guess that’s his personality, simplicity yet elegance. I just can’t get over his body.

To get away from the sight of Zion’s sexy body I went straight to the bathroom. The bathroom is lovely, it has rectangle-shaped bevelled mirror tiles all over the bathroom wall. With a white polished ceramic floor, in the centre of the bathroom, there is a large and long bright gold tub. Probably custom-made to fit his tall figure. To the far left there’s a walk-in shower, the wall had a frameless glass wall with a breathtaking view of what looks to be the back of the house. Oh, this is sexy. Just the idea of having sex here, you can see them but can they see you? Oh, the thrill! I started the shower and left the warm water soothing me to recenter. Slowly feeling my calm nature return.

Finishing up, I took a clean white towel from the built-in shelves. This place is so organized. It’s like he thought of everything that I would need to use. Everything besides old spice shower gel. I smell like him now. Recalling the heightened sense of smell, hoping that my natural scent will cover the shower gel before we arrive there. I don’t want lurking eyes on me. Coming out of the bathroom with just my towel on, I noticed that he is already dressed.

He is dressed in his thin running shoulder sleeve shirt, showing off the biceps and his half sleeve tattoo on his left arm. Nike running shorts reveal what the previously towel-covered are: strong thighs that I can see myself curled up in for hours. Focus Azah, I thought. He probably by now thinks I’m a creep from the way I look at him, stealing looks from my peripheral vision when he’s not looking.

He hands me folded clothes. “Shorts are adjustable on the hip. I mindlink Michael to ask Sophia to bring extra clothes that’ll fit you for your training. Keep the shirt on at all times.”

“Thanks for doing that, but why do you want me to keep the shirt on? It’s gonna be baggy on me”

“Keep it on.” He said without an explanation.

“Shoes?”

“Bought new ones for you. Sophia’s shoe size is an 8, from the looks of your feet you may be a 6.”

Regretting now that I didn’t get a proper pedicure “I’ll reimburse you for the cost.”Putting on his spare socks that he gave me

“Don’t bother.” He said while leaving the room for me to change into the clothes.

The shorts are still a bit baggy but I didn’t stress since I knew Sophia will have my other workout clothes with me. I look down at the short Zion gave me. They were cute and comfy, to be honest, reaching to my mid-knee. I may just keep these, or maybe not. He is an Alpha after all. Walking out of his room feels like I left one dimension and entered another. His room is very much masculine and screams bachelor, a different vibe from the bathroom.

The first thing I see is the glass corridor hallway with high glass ceilings that lead all the way to the family room. Wow. The whole area is beaming with bright sunlight. It has a massive patio that connects to the wide and open kitchen and dining room area. That overlooks the forest far below. The family room had a fantastic stone fireplace. The room has a light olive decor and above the family room roof, the conservatory blinds began to open electrically. Revealing the first strong rays of the day, the ones that bring true warmth throughout the room.

I didn’t realize how long I was staring at the roof, lost in thought. Till I saw Zion standing far across from me with an observant look. Our eyes meet. I didn’t nor could I utter a word. He looked me up and down and smiled before breaking eye contact.

“I made us something to eat before heading out.”

A man who can cook too. Who’s to complain? Jealous to whomever he’ll be with in the future.

“Sorry didn’t mean to wonder.”

“Naw it’s cool, not many people come here and see my work.”

“Work?”

Chucking he said “ I’m not just an Alpha, Azah. I’m a residential and interior design architect.”

“So you designed all of this.”

“Yeah with the help from my older brother of course. He is a civil engineer”

“Old brother? I thought that Alphas are firstborns?”

“Usually they are, I’m just different.” He said, smirking.

I notice that he’s waiting for me to eat first, so I take my portion and place it on my plate and start eating. He waits for a few seconds before he begins to eat as well. We eat in silence. Eating next to Joshua always made me believe that I had more class. Next to Zion, I feel like I’m the Cookie Monster with no basic home training on how to eat.

Zion’s phone rings “I gotta pick this up, it won’t take long.”

Must be serious hearing how his voice changed.

Eating for the next 5 minutes in silence, I see a text from Sophia

“Where are you? Training starts soon.”

Oh shit. “Comming” I texted back

“Are you going to tell us what happened?” Sara texted

Shit, I even forgot about the group chat messages, she must’ve seen my text response to Sophia.

“ Yea, My bad girls a lot has happened. Apparently, I passed out. I’ll give you guys all the details later today in person.” I’ll just leave the part where I’m at Zion’s for the sake of his privacy.

“Oh my God!” Aissatou replies

“Are you sure your good for training.”

“Yes.”

I look at the time and shouted for Zion as I wash the dishes that were used and place the rest of the food in the refrigerator. Gods I’ve never seen a refrigerator look this green. I wonder if he’s a vegetarian?

“Zion, it’s time!” I yelled.

He comes to the kitchen still on the phone looking frustrated. I’m still washing the dishes, as he suddenly places his chest behind my back. I could feel his print as it pushes forward to my ass while he gives me a sensuous back hug and whispers into my ear with his raspy voice,“ I’m here, ready when you are.” Why do I feel like his words had a double meaning?

Gods that voice of his though. Shit, I hope he doesn’t smell my arousal. He ends his call, his eyes glow momentarily while he forms a devilish smile. Damn. He knows. What’s worse is that he says nothing and comes even closer. He smells soo good. Focus Azah.

He helps me finish cleaning the dishes and the table.

“The garage is downstairs.”

Downstairs had a similar design like upstairs, to the far light there is a large automatic sliding door that opens to the garage. There are parked a bright orange Tesla SUV. The drive is quiet but not that awkward silent drive.

I wonder if Alphas have powers to make people around them feel this way too?

“What should I tell my friends,” shyly looking down and fumbling around with my hands while avoiding eye contact. I could feel his eyes on me for a bit before looking back at the road.

“Whatever you want.”

“That I slept over at your house? The way they will react to that.” I snorted like a pig. Real sexy Azah.

Taking the courage to glance at his handsome face as he forms an intoxicating smile revealing his bright pearl teeth. He is so good at masking his thoughts, I couldn’t cypher his expression. I guess that is one of many things Alphas probably learn to do.

“They’ll know either way Azah.”

“How, did someone tell them already?”

“Do you want to hide the fact that we were together last night?” It’s as if he almost sounded disappointed by this. Or it’s just my mind playing games with my feelings over him.

“No…. I um was just thinking of your privacy... you know? I mean you being an Alpha and all.”

“Am I just an Alpha to you, Azah?” Again. Is it a disappointment? And the way he says my name too.

“No no... I mean yes but then no. No, your Zion. To me.” Gods, why am I blabbering. I should just stick to one-word answers.

“Good.” he responded.

We arrive at a different field, similar to the schools but far more vast in space. He parks the car and tells me to wait in the car. Michael meets him a few feet from the car with my clothes, he walks back to the car.

“Here dress in the back, I’ll keep watch to make sure no one is near.”

“Thanks.” I take off the shorts wishing I could take them home with me. I was about to take off the shirt but I remember that he asked me not to. I knew I couldn’t run properly with an oversize shirt that almost fits like a dress. Deciding to take it off and explain to him my reason afters. Or he can just suck it. Flooding the clothes and placing them in the plastic bag.

He looks at me up and down, “ don’t like the shirt?”

“No, it’s comfy, I just don’t think it’ll be a good idea to run in it. Also, people will know.”

“They’ll know with or without the shirt.” He chuckles as he takes my locs up and helps me tie it in a high ponytail. Shivering from his hands lightly touching my neck.

“How, again?” Confused as to why he’s finding it so funny.

“Our scent.”

Horrified. “ I thought, I mean by now my scent… wait for what?”

“My Alpha scent to the pack is the strongest besides their mates. To others outside my pack, my scent is masked. I can’t be tracked. So you sleeping in my bed, around my house, in my car. It’s all over you.”

He whispers in my ears.

Oh no.

“Let’s go.” He waits for me to walk in front of him.

I wasn’t excited about this at all. When arriving I saw the other division class a few feet away from my division class. I spotted Aïssatou and Sara’s mouth drops as they pointed with their eyes to who is behind me.

Fuck me.

So much for his privacy. Everyone was already in position waiting for their orders, eyes were on me as I walk side by side now with Alpha Zion.

Zion pulls me to face him away from the eyes but not far enough for their curiosity to show. Thankful for my darker complexion, otherwise you would see me blush tomato red right about now.

“Yeshua will be here soon but in his wolf form. You will sense his wolf, he can’t be seen by the other packs.”

“Yes. his invincible to them but not to you or I. Michael and the rest can sense him but not see him for now. Right now I need you to be safe, be careful with your emotions. You are with the spirit Moon Goddess so her emotions are a bit stronger than yours. Today is the first day so we are checking on how well your mind and body endurance is reacting to your transformation.”

“That’s why you wanted me to wear the shirt?”

“So he can smell my scent with yours?”

“Remember my scent can’t be tracked outside the pack. If anything is to happen, my Beta and Gamma will be able to track you with my scent. When and if the Goddess takes over control, your scent will be masked. Only Yeshua and I will be able to track you .”

“This is a lot. If you had told me earlier.”

“You’ll be fine. You have me.” Hearing him say that my heart jumped with joy, as his genuine smile spread wide. This is dangerous.

“Any more questions?”

“Is everyone waiting for me,” I said as I spot many eyes on the both of us, quickly looking down and away for their stares.

“No, they are waiting for me.”

Isn’t that the same thing?

I did a quick jog to Sophia’s side, holding her hand tight to greet her as we stand side by side waiting for instructions.

Sophia whispered, “You have a lot of explaining to do.”

Rolling my eyes “Chill. I made a promise that I will.”
