Legacy: The Unravelling

IV

Next morning Kiara woke up and half-asleep attempted to stretch slightly as usual, but as she raised her torso to crack her back, she grasped what she thought was her bedsheets, that is until she felt skin.

Jolting awake she fell down from the impression, waking Liam up from the noise. None of them really remembered when they went to sleep and from the sight of them sleeping on top of each other in the couch, it was sort of obvious that she fell asleep and he tried to place her in the couch but fell into it with her in his arms and immediately fell asleep.

-Good morning to you too. - he greeted with a raspy voice.- is the floor more comfortable than my chest?

-Shut up. -she said rather harshly making him laugh.-

With red cheeks, she stood up walking to her room to perform her daily morning stretches before taking a shower and by the time she came out of the bathroom fully dressed on her training attire Liam was already inside his bathroom after making coffee.

If there was something that she had come to know about him is that he was very caring and gentle whenever he could and in the field, he almost never tried to engage in battles until it was necessary since his ruthless and gruesome persona usually came out when he locked his feelings away and almost always was guaranteed for him to remain like that for a few days, and he absolutely hated not feeling in control of himself.

Letting out a sigh she served herself some coffee before going to the table and start tidying it up, as she organised the notes they made as to prevent any confusion when she noticed a royal blue envelope underneath the door.

"Oh right, the candidates," she thought. Leaving what she was doing she proceeded to grab the envelope and leave it on top of the table for further conversations then she grabbed some eggs to cook for a quick breakfast but just as she was about to crack them, a hand snatched them from hers.

-I will cook. - Liam said.- We need to leave fast if we want to catch the commander before he starts his meetings.-

-We also received the prospects, do you want to give it a quick glance? -she replied.- We could also deal with it after our PT if my uncle does accept.-

-We better know what we are dealing with. - he said, nodding to the envelope with his head.-

Understanding his signal, Kiara went back to the table and grabbed the envelope before sitting back at the counter in front of Liam and proceeded to open it.

"Alphas,

We truly hope that you are doing better. Allow me to quickly remind you that you must choose four members to join you after an established term of 6 weeks from which the first 2 would be the assessing period and the remaining the training period.

Underneath you will find a list of 12 prospects. Choose wisely.

Best regards,

The HQ."

Lowering her sight, she stumbled upon the profiles of the 12 candidates. They were divided by their current ranks and sections and organised by age from oldest to youngest. Reading further she frowned at the sight of a blonde female with green eyes that she knew well:
