There you go. I heard my dad’s voice as I regained consciousness.
“Hey “
“What happened?”
“You drained yourself out “
He tells me as he hands me a sandwich. Which I'm glad we brought.
“So did I shift?”
“No, you need more stamina, your body is too weak to shift either that are your mind is preventing you “
I nod as I try to figure out ways to build my strength.
“You know Max, he could train you, he’s a trainer “
Ugh.
“Max’s a busy man. Wouldn’t it be a bit much to ask him to take a few minutes of his hectic schedule just to train me?”
<Work ended and here comes the moment I’ve been dreading all day. Training with the monster. I hate the guy, but if he can help me. I’ll take it. With him and PHG. I’m sure Clarissa and I will be up and running in no time. Last night I thought about this, and it’s the perfect strategy. Build physical strength while also working on my mental strength. They go together like glue. If one isn’t functioning properly, the other won’t either. I changed out of my work uniform and into some purple and black leggings with hints of grey, a matching top, and black sneakers. Leaving my bag on our stands, I took my water bottle and made my way over to the field. There were around 15 men on the field doing stretches. I scanned the field in search of Max, but I didn’t see him. His presence I could feel, though, so I knew he was somewhere around here. Suddenly my body shivers, which made me aware he was close, a little too close. I turned around and there he was, smirking at me.“Creep “
A few days have passed since the incident. Max doesn’t train me anymore, instead I train every day with his men under a strict order that his men shouldn’t talk to me. Not even Corey He trains elsewhere and I know it’s because deep down he feels guilty for what he did to me.What else could be the reason?To clarify, there isn’t any rule that an alpha can’t release his pheromones to show dominance when he feels disrespected. Most use it to attract women, never to punish them, so I assumed he wouldn’t use it on me, and even more so because I never willingly disrespect him. He’s the one who’s always poking me. Funny how men have no problem dishing it, only when it’s their turn to receive it. Enough about him. Clarissa feels stronger and we communicate more. She’s the one who told me to not let anything stop me from training. “It’s for us “She remained meThe fight is coming up, which has everyone busy. Doc and I are stocking up on hospital supplies, a number of things could go
On a regular Saturday I’d be in bed relaxing, except today isn’t a regular day. It’s the day of our pack’s highly anticipated fight!“Claire, Let’s go!”That’s my mom. She’s one of the chefs for today’s events It’s now 11 A.M so we have to get going. Mom’s gotta set the food court up that she had already cooked from here, and I have to be at the infirmary. The events start at 12 and end at 5.I won’t be watching any of the matches except for the one featuring the guest star. The organizers have set the schedule for that match at 4..“Claire, are you coming or not?”******We all watched, waiting to see who the guest star would be.Max was in the ring flexing like the show off is. “Introducing our guest star, Alpha Stiner “The announcement and crowd went wild.Alpha Vs his son. This should be interesting. The bell rang and Max launched at his father. His father easily dogged his attack, a smirk on his face. Max lunged at him again but his dad was too quick, he sides stepped him
Have you ever dreaded something so much you'd do anything in your power to avoid it?Well, that's me going home.I can already see the joy on my parent's faces. They got what they wanted. Everyone got what they wanted. I volunteered to help clean up to buy time. Hopefully, when I reach home, they're sleeping."Luna,"I heard a familiar voice, and I looked to see it was Corey. "Congrats,"He smiled "Congrats my ass, you saw out he treats me,"I rolled my eyes. This is not a good thing "Yeah, saw how you guys treat each but m,""But nothing,"I growled and walked away, leaving the bag of trash I had just filled. No where is it safe is it? I just wanna forget this day happened. I felt betrayed. The day I've been longing for has now turned into my worst nightmare. "Are you sure he's our mate?"I ask my wolf "Yes, do you need a hearing aid or something?"She asked, getting smart with me Of all the people I could have been mated to, it had to be him. Am I supposed to just crawl i
I heard the door to my room open. With my vision blurry, I had to squint my eyes to see who it was. “Claire”Dad called me, which made my head throb. “Quiet”I groaned in pain “Honey, I’m whispering”And it sounded as if he was yelling?. This is by far the worst hangover I’ve ever had. Dad hands me this arawak tea, it’s known for its fast relief of hangover symptoms. I took a few sips, then laid back in bed. My head hurts more than Max’s concussion.Yesterday’s events I could remember clearly until I reached the bar. I didn’t want to go home, so I went to the bar. I had 4 shots, then everything became blurry after that. The tea kicked in and I felt myself becoming sleepy. Sweat covered my body as it excreted foreign substances.“Out”I threw my dad out, then stripped. This is unbearable. I’m sweaty and uncomfortable. “She’ll be fine”I could hear my dad's voice from outside my room. Exhaustion soon took over, and I fell asleep. ***Hold still, a familiar voice says as I c
“Luna”“Good Morning Luna”I politely smiled at all of them. I wasn’t even Luna yet.The level of respect and support I’ve been getting is unreal. Everyone is excited for me to be their new Luna. I’m usually kind to people, but still, and it’s not like Max’s mother is bad. She’s a sweetheart.We’re meeting after work today. “Miss Woods, what are you doing here?”Doc asked, and I frowned “I’m here to work”“You no longer have to anymore and besides, shouldn’t you be spending time with your mate? I thought you two would be humping like rabbits now that you don’t have to sneak around anymore”She winks at me, then hands me the files of the patients we have today. I can’t believe she still thinks we had sex.Man, why didn’t I notice the cameras back in the storage room?.I was too busy getting fingered, that's why.UghMy cheeks turned red knowing we will have sex, eventually. I never once thought about it until now.I wonder what I’ll be like Gentle and sweet or rough and emotion
I’m glad you’re home. Would your father approve of my cutting my hair short?Mom asked right when I walked in.“Of course, you could be bald and he will still love you”“That’s true”She releases a breath. It’s baffling how worked up mom gets over nothing. “May I know why you wanna do that ?”I ask, taking off my socks and crocs “Got my hair stuck on the plants again, I swear, they’ve turned against me “I laughed at her, then ran upstairs to my room before she could slap me for making fun of her. ***An hour later I was at Luna’s “Thank you so much, Claire”Look at them. They think I’m clueless, don’t they?If only they knew their son had already told on them“You’re welcome, ““Come inside, they’re watching TV in the living room”Their children, aged five and two, immediately rushed over to say hi when they saw me. “Clawie,” the two-year-old hugs me“Hello Sophia, how are you doing?” I hug her back.“I’m happie” ““And why are you so happy, little princess?”“She’s glad it’s yo
I sat in Max’s office, waiting for him to speak. He called me in here over 5 minutes ago, and hasn’t uttered a word since. Keeping him company isn’t a problem if that’s what he wants. I kinda like it. Everything about him is so intriguing I could do this all day. The man is a work of art.The way he manages to look handsome with every facial movement he makes. Had me suppressing the impulse to touch his face, feel the softness of his skin? Okay, enough of that.“If you want me to stay with you while you work, just say that, no need to lie”He took his eyes off what he’s doing,focusing them on me“That’s not why I called you in here ““Oh”I blushed, feeling pathetic Max doesn’t even like his own presence. “What is the matter? I haven’t gotten all day “I urged him. “We’re having both ceremonies tomorrow”“Huh?”I raised an eyebrow “The Luna and Mating ceremony “He states casually, “Tomorrow, you’ve gotta be kidding me Max, I’m not doing it”“It’s an order, not a choice Cla
