The next morning at training, Alpha Anders putup against three of his warriors. | wasn’t concerned, Dad has

been trainingfor multiple attackers most of my life. Two of them will be easy to take down. Trevor, however,

will take swork. Next toand the ranked wolves, he’s their best warrior. He's smart in his fighting, not

just relying on his strength which is the mistake that most warriors make with me. Trevor watches his opponent

and learns their weaknesses. He's still trying to find mine, but that hasn’t slowed him down one bit.

| wait until they are in position, puttingin the middle of a triangle between them. | face Trevor, my biggest

threat, while keeping the other two in my peripheral vision. Trevor comes in first swinging to punchin the

gut. | quickly duck under his right arm, sliding down to my knees and skidding over to Richard, or The Dick, as |

call him. | swing my arm as hard as | can up between his legs and crush his family jewels, bringing him down and

taking him out. | hear and feel the air whooshing near my head and I lay back flat on my back, bent at the knees

so my feet are still planted on the ground. | see Kent's leg flying over where my head just was. As his body turns

with the momentum, | swing my feet up, catching the leg he has planted. | twist my body, pulling Kent down and

dislocating his knee in the process. He howls in pain, rolling around on the ground.

| swing myself back up, ready for Trevor. He's watching me, calculating. | give him a smirk, waving him forward

with my fingers. He fakes like he’s going to hitand then slides, trying to take out my legs. | leap over him,

swinging back around to give him a roundhouse to the head, but he ducks, using the move that I just did with

Kent. Clever bastard.

We go back and forth, both getting in jabs but not able to take the other one down until | was finally able to

throw a punch to his throat. In his moment of shock, | was able to grab his arm and twist it, just to the point

before dislocation, bringing him to his knees and forcing him to tap out or havedislocate his shoulder. The

rest of the squad is watching, clapping for my win. | give Trevor my hand and pull him up. “Nice job little badass,

but I'm coming for you.” he smirks before helping to get the other two to the infirmary. | smile back, “I look

forward to a real challenge one day Trevor.” He barks out a laugh before helping to carry Kent. I look at Alpha

Anders and he givesa nod of approval.

The school day goes by in a blur. | caught Rik looking atseveral times throughout the day, but was able to

avoid running into him. Of course, his ever present entourage helped out with that as well.

On our way home, Jason starts chatting about our night at the Club. Friday nights are our night. The end of the

week we go to a local club, Dark Moon. It’s in between the packlands for Canyon Ridge and Shadow Falls,

therefore, it's werewolves only. I've been going since | turned 17 almost a year ago. It's a great way to blow off

the steam of the week. It’s also becthe place that | meet up with Alpha Liam.

We haven't put a nto what we are. We're definitely friends, but more than that. He knows that | am waiting

for my mate, so we're not exactly friends with benefits, but he respects my choice and doesn’t pressurefor a

sexual relationship. He's older than | am by quite a few years, him being 24 andonly 17. But, unlike a certain

future alpha of my pack, Liam knows who and what | am. He appreciatesfor who | am and has left no

question that he would be more than willing to takeas his chosen mate. He is also aware that at my age, |

haven't been able to potentially find my fated mate, so he is being patient and I think he’s secretly hoping that

we're fated mates. In truth, | am too. | like Liam a lot. He's everything an alpha should be. Besides being one of

the sexiest men I've ever met, he is intelligent, caring, and he’s a strong alpha that takes good care of his pack.

It doesn’t hurt that he’s got the sexiest smolder that I've ever seen, and I'd be lying if | didn’t say my lady parts

get all hot and bothered when he turns that look on me.

After training with Dad, | quickly grab a bite to eat then head upstairs to shower and get ready. A friend of mine

from warrior training, Lacey, calls to make sure I'm going tonight and to see if she can hitch a ride. | tell her it's

Jason's turn to drive and she agrees to text him.

| dress in a pink criss cross top that wraps around my rib cage and ties in the back. | pair that with low rise black

jeans and a matching pink scarf that | use as a belt. | finish the outfit with pink and black colorblock cutout suede

stiletto heels. | leave my hair down and accentuate my natural curls. | go light on makeup since | plan to work up

a sweat, but | do put on a smokey eye to make my green eyes pop.

| head downstairs as | get a text from Jason that he’s out front. | say goodnight to my father and head out. Jason

has already picked up Lacey and another warrior from training, Dean. | climb in the back with Lacey. “Hey guys,”

| acknowledge all of them at once.

“Hey little badass. Take down any more alphas in the last 24 hours?” Dean asks with a stupid smirk on his face.

“Not in the last 24 hours, but the night is young Dean,” | reply.

“So,” Lacey looks at me, “expecting to see a super hot alpha tonight?” | shrug. While, yes, | do expect him, he is

an alpha and he has things that are more important than coming to a club on a Friday night and dancing with

me. Although, lately, he’s also started drivinghome, but again, he’s a busy man, so | don’t count on him

being there, although | do hope | see him.

“I never know for sure,” | tell her, “but, if | was to put money on it, I'd say yes, | expect to see him.” | smile at

her.

“Girl, that man is fine. You need to tap that and tellall about it.” | just laugh. | see Jason looking atin the

rearview mirror. I'm not really close to anyone except for Jason, so most people don’t know that I'm saving

myself for my mate.

We arrive at the club and see a long line of people waiting. Jason and | are regulars so we walk up to the front of

the line and the bouncer lets us in, much to the grumbles and complaints of the others who are waiting. “Looking

good little badass,” the bouncer says as | walk past him. | stop and turn to him. “Seriously? You too?” He just

shrugs and givesa smile. | sigh and walk into the club.

In werewolf clubs, there is no drinking age. We are different from humans. Our metabolism is much faster, so we

burn alcohol quickly and it takes a lot for us to get drunk. We head straight for the bar and order a round of

shots. I'm not a beer drinker and I'm here to dance so a shot will getgoing.

We get our shots and | pay for the first round. Jason orders another round while | look around. It’s crowded here

tonight and | see a bunch of wolves from both local packs and s| don’t recognize. | see several girls from

school and I'm just about to turn around for my second shot when | lock eyes with Alpha Rik.

“Son of a bitch,” | swear as | turn around, pick up my shot and clink my glass to Jason's, Lacey’s and Dean’s

before downing the drink. The burning warmth slides down my throat to my stomach.

Jason looks at me, “What? Who's here that you don’t want to see?” He's looking over my shoulder trying to

figure out who I'm not happy about seeing here tonight.

“You're seven o'clock.” He twists his head to his left looking in the direction I've given and whistles low and looks

back at me. “You think he'll cover here?” | shrug and take the shot that Lacey just got for us, “Don’t care,

I'm about to head out to the dance floor.” | lean over to shout above the music so Lacey and Dean can hear. “I'm

going to dance, anyone coming?” Jason says he'll join us in a minute and Lacey grabs my hand and pulls us into

the center of the dance floor. | can feel ice blue eyes onas | begin to dance.

| close my eyes and let the music wash over me, as my body starts moving to the beat. Most of the people

aroundare warriors from my pack, so | know they won't try to hit on me. | can lose myself and not have to

worry about anything. Plus, every one who spends any tin this club on Friday nights knows that eventually,

Liam will be here looking for me.

Lacey leans over to talk above the music, “Alpha Rik hasn't taken his eyes off of you since we walked out here,

what's up with that?” she asks. | shrug, because | honestly don’t know. | lean over to her to reply, “He sort of hit

onyesterday at school.” She leans back and looks at me, her eyes wide but | motion for her to lean back in.

“He has no idea who | am.” She stops dancing and looks at me. “No. Fucking. Way.” | shrug and lean in again,

“He askedwhat my nis and what pack | belong to.” Her mouth drops almost to the floor. “How is that

possible?” Her head is doing a swivel going back and forth between him and I. “EVERYONE knows who you are.” |

shrug again. “I guess I'm just not important enough for the future alpha to know.” She looks back at Rik once

more then at me, “Well, now I'm Team Liam all the way.” | smile back at her. “That makes two of us.”

For the next several songs we just move and dance, no more talking. Periodically, we dance with other warriors,

sometimes breaking off in twos sometimes dancing as a large group. As the first slow song of the night starts, |

motion to Lacey that I'm going for another shot. She nods and followsto the bar.
