I went from having a beautiful morning with Mei to getting my ass supremely handed to me during training. I got paired with Marcus and he was being particularly brutal today; he’s an absolute beast when it comes to fighting. On the bright side, it’s nice to know our pack has two such strong powerhouses to protect it, plus it wasn’t entirely his fault I got my ass kicked so much, I admit I was extremely distracted. Mei was facing off against Amelia – as usual. When we have pack training, Mei only spars against Amelia, because no one else is strong enough to take her on. She only spars with others if she’s helping to coach them on how to take on a stronger opponent. Basically, I neglected to defend against several of Marcus’ attacks because I couldn’t take my eyes off Mei. The way she moves is so lithe and majestic. You would have no idea how new she was to fighting unless she told you, she acts like she’s been doing this her whole life and her style doesn’t even look like she’s fight

I felt Tyson and I accomplished a lot today. We figured out the patrol schedule and then we had lunch in his office while he taught me more about what pack security entails. We discussed future training routines, with him letting me in on some of his ideas. There’s another sensory course coming up where the pack will once again have to learn how to not rely on their sense of smell. They were all so impressed the first time I participated in this, but I didn’t feel I deserved their praise. I admitted to my friends and Chris that even though my nose was plugged I could smell everything perfectly fine through my mouth – actually I smelt everything much easier. I thought they’d accuse me of cheating, but they seemed to think it was really cool. Overall, I’m feeling really good. I was going to go and visit Chris in his office, but he told me through the link that he’s busy having meetings with the contractors who are building the new pack expansions, regarding some financial matters. I de

I smile shaking my head, but Amelia does have a point. That was a lot of power that came out of Mei today, all triggered because for a brief moment Jane made Mei feel the way that disgraceful pack did. I wonder what it will be like at full strength. 'Come on, let’s go take Amelia’s advice and go back to the suite and put something nice together for Sweet One, and hopefully finish what we started in the tub this morning,' says Axel, wagging his tail. 'I’m going, I’m going. Since when are you so bossy?' 'Uh, since we met the love of our life, duh,' he says, rolling his eyes. I just smile, shaking my head. I get up, save all my documents, shut down my computer and head back to my suite. Mei deserves something romantic. She loves food, so I’ll start by making her something delicious. I roll up my sleeves, head over to the kitchen area and get to work on making chorizo carbonara. It’s one of my specialties and I know for a fact Mei loves it. She usually goes through three or four help

I’ve experienced all types of pain in my life, but this is entirely new. I feel like I’m waking up without remembering falling asleep, but even though I feel my senses returning, my eyes just don’t want to open and I’m not sure I want them to either. My entire body aches in a way I can barely put into words. At best, I’d describe it as though my blood has been replaced with lead and I’m being crushed by my own blood. My blood hurts. That doesn’t even make sense. The pain just doesn’t feel as though it’s in my muscles or bones but in my very blood. I know there are no pain receptors in blood but this is the best way I can describe it. “I’m glad you’re finally waking up,” I hear a smooth voice say. I can sense someone moving and sitting beside me. I then feel cool fingers brush my hair from my face. I want to move away from their touch, but my body is too heavy. All I manage is a groan of protest. “Sh, I know it hurts. It’s only temporary, but it’s for the best.” I’m starting to remem

Our tender moment is disturbed when Evalyn’s panicked voice fills my head. 'Amelia! Please, help! We’re in the Delta suite and Chris has completely lost it!' She cries, her words laced with worry. “Fuck, Chris,” I mutter, and quickly sprint out of my office, heading right for the Delta suite with Marcus racing beside me. When I arrive the door is open, and I can hear snarls and growls and a struggle going on inside. Marcus and I burst in and the sight before me is not one I could have predicted in a million years. The entire suite has been trashed. Chris is in a blind rage, going completely feral. His hazel-green eyes are glowing an intense brightness I’ve never seen, and his dad and Tyson are trying to hold him back while Evalyn consoles Kennedy who is sobbing in the corner at the sight of her son. “Amelia! Please stop him!” Evalyn cries with tears in her eyes. Just as I step forward a growl bursts from Chris with so much energy behind it the entire room shakes and then he’s tos
