Malachai
The morning air was crisp as I led the patrol through the outer rim of our territory. My boots crunched on fallen leaves while I tried to shake off the heaviness from yesterday's mess with Eden and Axel.
Truth was, I couldn't stop thinking about it. The way Axel had looked when he found out what Eden did to Calla. Like someone had ripped his heart out and stomped on it. I'd never seen him that angry, not even when Michael challenged him. Though I admit his anger on Michael was of a different caliber, even I got chills watching that fight.
Speaking of Michael, where the hell was he? I hadn't seen him since Axel beat him down for the leadership challenge. Word was he'd been locked up in his room, only coming out when Joseph ran errands for him. Something about that didn't sit rig
