Brooklyn-“To open a mind link with the entire pack, you will need to say what you want to say in your mind and then projected it by mentally grabbing onto the tether that links us all. It isn’t a simple task since some will have blocks up to keep certain people from contacting them. So you will also need to push through the blocks. As far as individual it is similar, except you have to hone in on specific member you want to communicate with.” Eric started to explain, in between bites of his third helping.“At first it will take a lot of concentration and you’ll have to clear your mind, but in time after you mastered the ability, you will be able to do it effortlessly. Like I mentioned earlier, it may take a week or more, but it is something you can practice in your spare time and we can even work more on it every day. You can practice by trying to connect with me, so you aren’t disturbing anyone else. When someone is trying to conne

Brooklyn-The fear was still there, not as bad, but still very much there. It has been three days since I started working with Eric. On the first day, we went over to the pack clinic so I could get checked out. Apparently, the pack doctor had already taken my blood and I had been lacking all sorts of nutrients, now I just had a slight vitamin D deficiency.We went over everything I ate in a day and other than adding a protein shake in the morning before training, he didn’t see a reason to adjust my diet. I showed him what I knew already, from Tate. He had made a comment that he was impressed by how well I was doing after just a few short weeks.We went over a few defensive maneuvers and he showed me a few things that would help. By the time all was said and done, we didn’t have time to spar, which I hadn’t minded. On the second day, we did and I had so many panic attacks that I wasn’t sure I would ever be ready. He had been patient and re

Brooklyn-A week of training with Eric had been torture. Honing my skills as a fighter hadn’t been so bad, it was the mental and emotional turmoil I had to go through also. Suffice to say, I had overcome the majority of my fear. Taking Eric’s suggestion to heart, when we weren’t working on combat, I was trying to recognize where my fear stemmed from.My biggest obstacle hadn’t been that I was afraid of getting hurt, the pain I could handle. It was the lack of being able to protect myself. Knowing I still had a ways to go, the more we trained the more determined I became, but now I knew that in time I would be able to protect myself. No longer would I allow anyone to treat me like the others had.I was a lot stronger than I had been a week ago, even faster. Eric had given me everything he had in our last session and while I struggled to defend myself with every attack, I got back up and kept going. His skill and strength surpassed me great

Tatum-This very thing is why I knew she wasn’t ready. Why I even listened to my brother, I will never understand. Brook was getting beat and she just laid on the ground covering her face, letting it happen. I could smell the fear radiating from her, it was nearly suffocating. Whispers filtered through the crowd, all saying the same types of things.“How can she be our Luna? The girl can’t even defend herself.”“Alpha is mated to her?”“I won’t accept her as our Luna. I don’t care if she is mates with the Alpha.”“She was in training with us once and Alpha Tate had to show her everything.”“You would think she would have gone to training more if she couldn’t fight.”“What was the Alpha thinking? She sure is pretty but she won’t be able to protect any of us if she can’t protect herself.”“I wanted to challenge

Tatum-I couldn’t believe my eyes. This was not the same Brooklyn that I knew. She was far more skilled than anything I could imagine. How was it possible that in just a week of Eric training her, she has improved to this degree? I admit my brother is good, but no one is that good.Watching her now, I knew I underestimated her abilities. Never in my life have I ever saw someone be able to reform themselves down to their very core. She was quick on her feet and flawless in her movements. When Chasity shifted, I had expected that Brook was not going to survive but there was nothing I could do to stop it. It was out of my hands.Even with her arm, she didn’t let it stop her. When I first found her, she had shown just strength and was able to stand up even after what happened to her. Using a belt to bind her arm, was rather brilliant though. There was one thing that Eric had said that had me wondering the same thing.Who were her parents exactly?
