Not Your Mate Anymore

Chapter 22



Chapter 22

We arrived at yet another lycan pack thanks to my uncle Deacon.

It was huge with just over a 2000 normal pack members and a 1000 warriors ran by one alpha. We had to buy our way in and I didn't want to ask my father how much he had to pay so we're not treated as pack omegas.

"Welcome to Red Creek Pack. We are one of the oldest standing packs since the beginning of time. We don't normally take in any new members but your sizable donation will help greatly and ensure your stay is comfortable." One very tall and muscular guy said.

He walked closer to us and held out his hand to greet my grandfather.

"My name is Lucas, the beta of this pack. My alpha is away on business but he should return soon." He says as they shake hands. He then turns to me and bows his head.

He led us to my apartment in the pack house. It took up the entire floor. Definitely too big for Adrastos and I alone.

"I take it your stay is only temporary sir?" He asks looking at my grandfather.

"Yes. I'll only be here for a few days to help my granddaughter settle in. I can't stress this enough, her being here is to stay secret. Word of it does not leave this pack." He says sternly to Lucas.

"Yes. That was the agreement and we will keep our word." He says.

He bids us farewell and close the door.

I go into my room to settle down and put my son to sleep while I freshen up. I make a pillow fort around him and head into the ensuite. It was white and modern.

Just perfect.

After freshening up and giving Adrastos a bath, I walk out, Adrastos in mu arms to sit with my grandfather who seems to have company.

"Who's this?" I say as I make myself comfortable on the couch.

"Hello my lady. My name is Margot and I will be helping you with whatever it is that you need. I can look after your son or also do some housekeeping. If you don't want to dine with the pack, I can also cook for you." She says to me.

She was probably around my age.

"Oh don't you have school?" I ask her.

"I do but my duties come first." She says to me and my heart sinks.

"Do you have any family?" I ask her and she brightens up at that question.

"Yes. My mother and father who are at home and I have two older brothers who are warriors of the pack. My parents and I are very proud" She beams at me.

"Oh and your mother and father?" I ask.

"My father is retired my lady and my mother was recently fired from her last job. That is why I'm here as nobody would hire her." She said.

"If you don't mind me asking, why was she fired?" I ask. She shifts on the couch uncomfortably.

"She was accused of stealing." She says looking down. I gasp loudly.

"That's a serious accusation Margot." I say to her, now worried if she won't do the same.

"She didn't do it my lady. She was falsely accused but nobody would believe the word of an omega over a higher ranked wolf." She says as tears fill her eyes.

"I'd like to meet your mother then. I can hire you both so you can attend school but I'll have to have a word with her first before I make my decision." I say to her as a smile makes it's way on her face.

"I can get her right away!" She chirps and I nod my head at that. She scurries out of my apartment, leaving me with my son and grandfather. That got me thinking about how I will be able to pay Margot.

"Grandfather, how will I access my money without tipping Max off?" I ask him.

"Cj has set up a new identity for you and the boy. New accounts and everything. He had your money up in a way that is untraceable. Something about hacking and stealing and IP addresses." He says to me and I laugh at him.

I'll have to call Cj to have him explain all of it to me.

"It will be a while before your bank details are delivered so until then, you'll have to use cash. The money is in the two duffel bags I put in your room. The beta told me you have a safe in your room behind a painting. Make use of it." He says to me and I nod.

An excited Margot comes rushing in and dragging an older looking woman behind her. She sits down followed by the older lady. My grandfather takes that as his cue to leave and go in to the extra

bedroom.

"My lady, this is my mother, Dorothy." She says to me. I shake my head at her.

"Call me Sabrina, please." I say to her and she bows at me. I then look at her mother.

"It is nice to meet you Dorothy. Margot here has explained your current dilemma and I wanted to hear it from you." I say to her.

"Hello Sabrina..." She says as she looks at me nervously. I nod at her to continue.

"I was working on the floor above you, the alpha quarters. See, the entire alpha family lives up there and I've even raised our current alpha." She says to me. Her eyes look glassy but she takes in a deep breath to calm herself down.

While saying this, her heartbeat has been steady and I've been listening in to see if she lies to me.

"One day I caught the youngest daughter of the previous alpha, our current alpha's little sister, doing dirty bits with a young boy. I reprimanded her like I've done with all the alpha children when they were young. She continued this behaviour until one day I told her I'll tell on her. She didn't change her ways but instead she planted her mother's expensive brooch in my cleaning supplies closet and had me fired." She said as tears broke out and stained her face.

She looked broken. I felt really sorry for her.

"I'm so sorry Dorothy." I say to her and she gives me a small smile.

"All those alpha babies, I raised. I will plead my case with the current alpha but he's been away for some time now. I can only speak to him when he returns." She says to me. I nod in understanding.

"Until then, you will work for me. You have better experience at looking after children than Margot and I'd like it if she didn't have to miss school." I say and the mother looks at me with her eyes about to pop out of her face.

"How much was the alpha family paying you?" I ask her.

"No no no. I can't expect you to pay me what that family was. You only have one child." She says but I smile and raise my eyebrow at her waiting for an answer.

"The beta already paid me for 6 months of work." Margot chimes in.

"Since you've already been paid, your mother will find some work for you to do after school and on weekends around here. Dorothy, your pay will stay the same until the alpha returns. I'm stubborn so you can only agree." I say to her and Margot laughs.

After some minutes of explaining how I want things done, I had Margot go change so she can accompany me to their mall so I can buy clothes and supplies since I didn't get to pack anything. Dorothy met my grandfather and insisted they will both stay behind with Adrastos while I went shopping.

The beta showed me to the car my grandfather asked him to borrow me. It was a pickup truck, nothing crazy. I was missing my super car now but the truck will do as I needed a lot of things. I got in with Margot and followed her directions.

"So you wanna go to the commoners mall or where the higher ranking wolves shop?" She asks. I look at her confused.

"You mean, you guys don't shop at the same place?" I ask her and she shakes her head no. I shake my head in disbelief.

Bloody Lycans.

"I want designer. So take me to where the alphas shop." I say and she sits up excitedly.

"I've never been inside before! I can't wait to see all the shops they have." She says and I laugh at how cute she was being.

We pulled up to the mall and it looked like a tall skyscraper.

We walked in and the cool air hit us. Margot followed me everywhere from shop to shop just looking at everything in awe. I had to remember to buy her something before we leave.

We walked in with a duffel bag full of money and walked out of the mall with it all empty. I definitely know how to waste money. I also passed by a baby store less expensive to buy baby stuff. I couldn't buy Adrastos designer clothes if he's only going to wear them for 2 minutes. No ways.

I got Margot a pair of designer sneakers but I didn't tell her. I'll have to give it to her when I drop her off.

"Sabrina, I've never seen anyone spend as much money as you have on clothes. That was crazy." She says to me.

"Wait until you meet my sister then!" I say as I chuckle remembering my father's angry face when Josey maxed out his credit card.

"You must come from serious money then." She says looking at me.

"I come from a beta family. Before our pack was attacked anyway." I say to Margot.

"I'm sorry Sabrina. That must've sucked" She said. 'That's not the half of it!' Athena says in my head.

"It's okay. Here's to new beginnings." I say and I smile at her. Deep down I was heartbroken but I was going to embrace this new change, even if it took everything out of me, I will take this new life and raise my son.

We arrived back at the pack house. I parked the car and Margot ran out to get someone to help carry the shopping bags.

I was waiting outside the car as it was too hot to stay inside. The beta made his way towards me with someone following right behind him. I couldn't see who it was as the sun's Ray's were blocking his face but he looked to be a tad bit taller than Lucas and definitely carried more muscle.

"Sabrina, I'd like to formally introduce you to the alpha, Xander. Alpha Xander, this is Sabrina, the one I told you about." Lucas says. He moves out of the way to reveal a man cut out of a magazine catalogue.

Perfection.

His muscles were stretching the poor shirt and don't get me started on his legs. Does this guy ever miss leg day? Me and my still bloated belly stood still taking in the sex god.

"Hello Sabrina." Xander says to me.

"Hello alpha. Thank you for taking me and my son in." I say to him. Honestly, it could possibly lead to war if Max found out where I was but he took me in any way.

"Your buy in was good enough. Can't say no when someone dangles an insane amount like that around. I'd like to hear more of your story. Once you're all settled, come to my office." He smiles at me and then walks away, with Lucas following silently behind him.

Margot jumps out from nowhere and beams at me.

"I see you've met the alpha. He's never this friendly." Margot says to me. Another omega comes out from behind her.

"She is beautiful and we all know the alpha loves beautiful women." The other girl says to me.

Margot tells her to be hush and to help her carry out the shopping bags to my floor. I silently left them to it as I carried my share of bags and went up to my apartment.

I walk in to find my grandfather eating something that smelled amazing.

Adrastos sleeping soundly on the couch by him. I walk past him and put all the bags on the floor in my room. Margot and her friend follow shortly after and do the same. We make our way to the kitchen, all following the lovely scent of food.

Dorothy smiles as we all walk in at the same time and starts handing us our plates. I could never say no to pasta.

After eating, I go to my room to get the shopping bag that had Margot's sneakers.

"Margot I got you something to thank you for helping me shop all day." I say handing her the one shopping bag that has her sneakers inside.

"No you didn't...!! So when you asked for my shoe size... Nooo" She squeals in happiness.

She leaves soon after with her friend and I decide to freshen up before I go up to see the alpha.

I put on a basic white shirt with boyfriend jeans and my new white air jordans. I'll leave my hair to air dry. I put on some chapstick and walk out my room.

My son is still sleeping so I tell my grandfather about the alpha wanting to speak to me.

"Just be honest Sabrina. You need him on your side." My grandfather says.

"I'll be honest, I promise." I say and quickly walk out to go meet the alpha.

I walk up to his floor and followed his scent. It was behind a large brown wooden door. I knocked twice before I heard some sort of mumble.

I walked in to see the alpha drowning in paperwork. I chuckled at the sight.

I can't remember how many times I had to teach Max my father's filing system so everything could be in order. Ungrateful ass.

"Sabrina! Excuse the mess. I'm trying to find my way around after being away for so long." He says and motions for me to sit on one of the chairs opposite him, only a desk separating us.

A desk that looked strong enough if Xander decided to take me on it.

"So, all I know is my father and beta had you pay off your uncles debt to be allowed in. I'm sorry about that but my father can be a greedy man. Why did you run away?" He asks me.

"I'm running away from the alpha of Green Forrest pack. He is the father of my child and my chosen mate. I could sit here for hours explaining everything, or I could show you." I say to him. He looked intrigued.

"Show me?" He asks with one eyebrow raised.

I stand up and walk to his side of the table. I point to his arm,

"May I?" I ask and he nods at me. I take hold of his hand with both of mine. Oh a man with big hands is always a plus.

What is wrong with me!?

I show him my childhood memories with Max to when I ran away from Percy. I then showed him my time with Max as his mate and Luna. I showed him the war that transpired and how I saved everyone. I showed him the aftermath of said war and why I had to run away.

When I pulled away I saw a tear fall on Xander's hand and it hit me that I was crying. I stepped back and wiped my face.

"Wow. How did you do that?" Xander asks me ignoring my tear stained faced.

"Let's just call it gifts from the moon. If that even makes sense." I say to him. He rubs his chin looking at me, taking me all in slowly.

Was he feeling the attraction I was?

Why was I this horny for him?

"Can I feel your power?" He asks smiling at me, looking like a school kid that just discovered a store that gave away free candy.

I smiled at him and then let it out. All of it and then reeled it in after a few seconds.

"You're amazing." He says standing up and walking towards me until my back hit a wall.

He clears his throat.

"You'll be very useful in training. I expect to see you on the training fields every day at 6am." He says to me as he moves back and takes a seat on his chair.

"So I can stay? What about Maximus?"I ask him and he just shrugs.

"I'm just like my father Sabrina, I can get greedy and I'm not gonna lie, I can put you to good use." He says that but I pick up the double meaning behind it and I wet my panties at the thought.

He takes in a deep breath and forces his eyes shut. He could smell my arousal.

My goddess Sabrina!! Reel it in girl...

" We get a lot of rogues in these parts so you'll come in handy and if your mate decides to pay us a visit, I'll leave that for you to decide. I do promise you, our border is impenetrable. There is absolutely no way he can get to you without warning." He says to me and I let out a loud sigh.

"I was hoping to also finish school." I tell him and he smiles.

"That has been arranged already. So you will train at 6 to 7am and be at school by 8am. Your mail came in today with your new identity and new bank accounts." He says handing over an envelope to me.

"Thank you. For everything." I say as walk to the door.

"Sabrina?" He calls out.

"Yes?" I say looking back at him. He takes a second as he checks me out again.

"Welcome to Red Creek." He says to me sending me that killer smile.

I smile back and then walk out. I rushed back to my room to take a shower but I was also missing my baby boy. I've been out and about all day.

I spend the rest of my day cuddling with my baby even though he slept most of the time. Around 9pm Cj arranged a secure video call with everyone.

I got to talk to them all and share a few laughs with grandfather by my side.

After the call, grandfather left to go sleep and I took the chance to change up my room to my taste. The bedding, the curtains and throws. I put all my toiletries and perfumes in the bathroom. I hung up all my new clothes and the little ones.

I then set my alarm to 5am so I can quickly pump before I have to go for training. I went to bed around 9pm, nervous to meet everyone tomorrow morning.

I hate being the new girl.

Max's POV

"She's gone. I can feel it." I say to my friends sitting around the table in the dining hall.

"Well, aren't you happy about that?" Nicole asks me. She's been giving me hell for abandoning my son.

"It's what I wanted but my wolf is feeling a little down." I tell her.

"Well, deal with it. You got what you wanted so I don't want to hear about Sabrina anymore." She says to me. The rest of the guys remain quiet, afraid to say anything that will have me upset.

I had to use my alpha tone to force Nicole in to submission when I ordered the rest of the pack living in my pack house to move houses. She still isn't happy about being forced to abandon a pregnant Luna but she couldn't go against alpha orders. Although she had Tristan look after Sabrina because she couldn't.

To be honest, I was glad someone was keeping her alive. Well my wolf was glad. I on the other hand couldn't care. If she's so strong, then she can survive anything. She doesn't need any of us, she proved that when she took on all those warriors and regained her energy within minutes while I was kept by a barrier and even before that, we were losing. I led my pack to a slaughter and she was the hero, not their alpha.

"Fine." I say with a little annoyance. "I won't mention her ever again." I say to her. They all look at me as if I just grew two heads.

"What?" I ask and they all shrug and pretend to be engrossed with simple scrambled egg on toast.

Everyone was scared of me now. I was pushing my pack harder during training, I added extra hours. I doubled the number of patrols on our borders. I was a control maniac but if it prevented another attack, then that's what I'll do.

My father walks in and everyone seems to relax. I remember a time when they feared him as he ruled with an iron fist. He made his way to my table and sat on the Luna chair.

He looks at me as he runs his chin.

"So, now that you have scared off Sabrina and my grandson, what do you plan on doing with your life now?" My father asks. He wasn't happy with me but I don't care. I don't want Sabrina anymore and that's that.

"I will run this pack and make sure we never get attacked like that ever again." I say.

"Well, I'm not so sure you can guarantee that now. People around the country were talking about Sabrina's great strength. She is the most feared wolf and her being here was good for the pack. Now, you're just a normal Lycan with intimidating muscles." He says to me.

That's my problem! My fist hits the table as I get up and leave the dining room to go to my office and get away from my dad. I don't get far until I smell him behind me.

I open my office door and make my way to my chair knowing very well I was about to get an earful. He closes the door with so much force, I looked up surprised to see it still in place.

"Are you going to answer me? Can you truly protect the pack from Sabrina's crazy uncle because he pulled a number on all of you and from my experience, he wasn't trying to get rid of Sabrina for nothing. That jackass will be back and you played right in to his hands!" Father says.

"I will not rule a pack that fears and respects it's Luna over their alpha. I will also not rule a pack that half blames Sabrina for what happened to us. Sabrina this, Sabrina that. I am tired of hearing how powerful she is! I am powerful. I shifted in to my wolf when I could barely recite the alphabet. I was the top student at the alpha training and my record was still standing until a few months ago. I worked hard to deserve this and what did she do? She was born that way. Didn't have to push herself beyond what she's already used to." I say.

She was spoilt. Couldn't take the pain of being replaced. So what if I took on another mate? All she had to do was fight her. That was the lycan way. She was supposed to rip her to shreds after finding out about her. She was the fucken Luna. All she had to do was yield that power but she didn't and that proved to me that she didn't deserve the title. She expected things to be delivered to her on a golden tray.

"Son, you think if she was given a choice she'd choose those powers?" My father asks me and I shake my head no.

"I know she would choose to be a normal wolf and that is why she is so undeserving! She's always complaining about how unfair life is. She needs to take responsibility!" I say to my father.

"And how will she know all of this if you don't tell her? Also, why are you expecting her to have the same beliefs as you when you were brought up differently?" He asks.

"Don't make excuses for her." I say through gritted teeth.

"That might be the way I raised you but that's certainly not the way she was raised and with reason. You didn't even give her time to grieve her mother!" Father says.

"Life waits for no one. Now if you're done lecturing me on being a good mate, a lecture you of all people shouldn't be giving, please leave me alone. I have work to do." I say in a cold tone.

I am the man my father raised. If he has a problem with it, he can take it up with himself.

Deacon left me to my work. I spend most of my time in the office if I'm not training or patrolling around the borders. I'm not stupid, I know Reginald will be back. His children are still in my cells and he can't push his agenda without his offspring.

I had built an even deeper underground dungeon that has blood or eye retina lock. Only I can open or close it. His children are in there and I give them one meal a day so they stay weak. I've even turned them in to vegetarians, an inside pack joke.

Nothing drives a wolf more mad. Their need for raw meat was probably insane and very soon, they'll do anything to my bidding for a taste. They were still under Sabrina's mind control, which means they will kill their father at first contact and I plan on using his kids against him.

A Shewolf walks in to my office wearing a very skimpy outfit trying to seduce me but I was not in the mood. I have not been in the mood since Sabrina had our marks removed. Just the thought of her taking another Male and not knowing about it was enough to kill my sex drive.

Was I still in love with her? I don't know. My wolf loves her but I've had him since I was a kid so I know how to control him. I like to think of myself as territorial and Sabrina was mine.

Sabrina.

I decided not to call her Kimberley anymore because that was for when I cared for her. Now I just want to know where she is so I know what she plans to do. Will she stake a claim that I fathered a son? Will she challenge me for the alpha title?

Many outside packs don't know this but a Luna can challenge her alpha for the title if she feels he is not suited for the title anymore. Half the pack would've supported her but she didn't know that. That's why I had the pack move houses so that she would be alienated and think that everyone hated her. I worked too hard to have some ungrateful wolf strip me of my title. She had to go and the further away she is from this pack, the better.

"Leave. I don't want you and don't ever think you can walk in to my office whenever you want." I say to the shewolf.

She stomps out of my office and bangs the door.

Sabrina's POV

My alarm went off at exactly 5am and I groaned in my head afraid to wake king Adrastos. I had just passed out from feeding him at 3am.

This was going to take some getting used to.

I got out of bed to shower away dried milk and sweat. Don't want to put off anyone at training.

I decide to wear black ankle length Nike leggings with matching sports bra. I put on a loose shirt as my tummy hasn't snapped back yet but I'm hoping with all the training, I'll be good as new soon. I slip on my black Nike running shoes and style my hair in a very tight ponytail as I don't want to be distracted on my first day.

I switch on the baby monitor and connect to my phone so I can record the day even though I'm not around. I will watch the feed later on in the day. Dorothy should be arriving at 5h50 so I have a few minutes to make my way to the training fields.

I hear a knock on the door at 5h45 and I rush to go open the door thinking Dorothy was early but as soon as I opened the door and met with a shirtless man, I knew that wasn't my helper. I try to blink away the nasty thoughts in my head from seeing such nakedness so early in the morning but that didn't work so I tried the next best thing, talking.

"Am I late?" I ask but he shakes his head no and walks right in to my apartment like he owns it, which he does technically but I live here.

"No. I just thought I'd check in with you, having a newborn and all. I have a younger sister and some cousins, I know how new mothers appreciate their sleep but it seems like you're coping just fine." Xander says as checks me out.

"Oh I'm struggling but I was not about to disappoint the alpha on the first day of training. I can slack off in a week or two." I say jokingly.

Well to be honest, I could pass out any minute.

He chuckles at my joke and I mentally swoon at the sound, imagining a very naked alpha in my bed laughing at my jokes.

My thoughts are interrupted when Dorothy enters my apartment and Xander pulls her in for a hug. Whoa, messed up. Miss me with that.

"Ah I see you managed to steal away the one lady that can shout at me and live to see the next day." He says and I just shrug. I was not about to tell him how Dorothy came to work for me and besides, I was still trying to maintain eye contact with a shirtless alpha. Talk about hard!

"You know Sabrina, this lady here raised me so your son is in good hands." He says and I see the sincerity in his eyes. This man loved Dorothy like a mother but I hope after hearing her side of the story he doesn't take her back. I need her now.

"Oh you don't have to convince me. She sold that story to me yesterday. How could I not hire her?" I ask playfully. Dorothy laughs at my comment.

"Out you two.." Dorothy tries to push us out of the house. "Don't want Sabrina late on her first day." She says as she points at her phone which showed the time. 5h55??? oh no.

I pulled Xander by hand out the door and down the stairs as he laughs at my actions. I stop at the bottom of the stairs and look at him.

"You do know I'm the alpha right?" He asks me. Well duh!

"No I had no idea." I say rolling my eyes and grabbing the door handle so we can go outside but Xander let's out a growl and puts his hand on the door, pushing it shut.

"Don't ever roll your eyes at me." He says in a low but warning tone. It should've scared me but I was beyond turned on.

"Sorry. I'm just new here and I have no ranking. Naturally I should be an omega but I'm living on the floor right under the alpha. Your shewolves won't like that and I'm not trying to give them more reason to hate me." I say and he smiles.

Oh how will I survive training...

"Don't worry. They'd be stupid to take you on." He says stepping back to allow me to open the door.

"I can handle that. I just want to be able to make friends without them thinking I'm your latest conquest and I'm abusing your alpha power." I say in all honesty. Xander laughs out loud as we walk to the training field.

He pulls me in for a hug and licks my ear.

"Now that will give them something to talk about." He says and I groan loudly.

"Eeuw why'd you do that? Now I smell like you!" I say.

Although to be honest, He could've at least licked my neck or lower. I get tingles all over my body at the thought.

"That's the plan Sabrina. Let's see what happens now." He says to me as we get to the training field and there's groups of people looking at us but more especially, me.

Oh goddess.

Mental face palm.

Dig up a hole.

Gladly jump in.

"Good morning pack. Sorry I'm a little late.." He says then winks at me. I look away quickly but clearly not quick enough as a blonde girl standing in front of me scowls in me.

"This is Sabrina. She's a new pack member so I expect you all to be friendly and welcoming. Now let's get to training. Sabrina, I'd like for you to take on my strongest shewolf, Jade so we can see how you do." He says and the blonde girl steps forward smirking at me.

I've said this before and I'll say it again. Girls always underestimate me and miss Jade was doing the same thing. She was also on the skinny side though so she shouldn't be so cocky.

I step forward as well and look straight in time Jade's blue eyes. She was a beautiful girl, I won't lie.

"Alright ladies, we fight at full power. No holding back. The first one to keep the other opponent down for longer than 10 seconds wins." Xander says and Jade takes a defensive stance but still maintains eye contact with me.

She let's her power out and I was disappointed. She wasn't even of beta strength. What did Xander hope to achieve here?

I don't let my power out. I could take her on still masking it. I also take a defensive stance waiting for Xander to give us the go. Everyone else stands back to watch as Xander moves away to give us space to fight.

"Fight!" Xander shouts out and Jade jumps at me. First mistake.

I dodge her as she sprints past me but quickly turn around and I use my one hand to pull her by the neck and raise her up and pull her down. I keep my hand around her neck to keep her on the ground as Lucas starts to count.

He counts to 10 and I let go. I stand up straighter and turn to Xander, raising my eyebrows at him.

Jade gets up with a huff and sends daggers my way. I turn back to look at Xander hoping he'd give me a stronger Male opponent because biologically, they are stronger.

"It looks like Sabrina won that round way too easily. Jade, that was seriously disappointing and Sabrina, I thought I said you fight at full power." He says and I shrug.

"Sorry alpha but it wouldn't be fair if I fought at full power. Had you given me a stronger opponent, maybe I would've released my wolf power." I say and Jade scoffs.

"I'm the strongest shewolf here new girl." She says and I roll my eyes.

"I think that title belongs to me now." I say back to her and she growls at me.

"I demand a rematch. In wolf form." She says and I cackle at that.

'Bitch wants to meet, let me have this one please.' Athena says to me in my head.

"We can do this all day. You can shift in to your wolf while I stay human and I'll still defeat you. I am born of higher ranking. You're no match for me." I say and she smirks at me.

"Let's give it a try then." She says as she shift in to her wolf, shredding her clothes in the process.

A light brown wolf jumps to attack me but I dodge her attack as I let my claws out and sink them in to her flesh on the side and pull out a little chunk of meat. She howls in pain but turns around to come at me. I run to her too and she opens her wide wolf mouth to try bite my head off but I anticipate her move and hold her mouth apart before throwing her against a tree.

She lets out a quick howl when her body crashes in to the tree but quickly recovers and tries to stand. I let out a little bit of my power to force her in to submission. At first I thought she would as she freezes in place when she feels it and loud gasps can be heard around the training field but she shakes her head and starts to run at me again.

This girl was a fighter, I'll give her that.

I'll give her an A for effort.

I run to her too and she jumps in the air to try bite my head off again but I drop to the ground and slide a little as I let my claws out and claw at her chest. She falls to the ground in front of me and I get up. NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.

I walk up to her as she growls at me. Her body was beginning to heal so I let it and walked away from her. She took this as an opportunity to try sneak attack me but Athena also anticipated that move as Jade jumped in for an attack but I quickly dodged it.

"ENOUGH!" Xander said using his alpha tone. Jade froze and I looked up at him.

"Jade, you've embarrassed yourself enough. Everyone, choose a partner and start sparing. Sabrina, take 5." Xander said and I took the chance to go stretch out since I wasn't even given the chance to stretch my limbs.

Jade fell to the ground as she tried to lick her wounds. As soon as she was half healed she shifted back and walked back to the pack house. As I watched Jade disappear, a girl with jet black hair walked up to me and handed me a bottle of water. I took it from her.

"You certainly got her walking with her tail between her legs." She says as she laughs at Jade's retreating figure.

"I take it you're not a fan?" I ask and she nods enthusiastically.

"No. She's not really a favorite and since she started dating the alpha, she's been mean and too cocky." Jet black hair said to me.

"I'm Sabrina.." I say extending my hand to her.

"Oh I'm sorry. My name is Myrtle. I am Jade's stepsister." She says to me.

"Whoa family drama? Now I'm intrigued." I say and she chuckles.

"Oh just your basic Cinderella story. My father marries her mother after their mates were killed during a rogue attack. We were close at first until she started dating the alpha." Myrtle says to me.

"Why would the alpha have me humiliate his mate like that?" I ask and Myrtle laughs at me.

"Oh they are definitely not mates. The alpha's mate was killed 2 years ago when rogues first attacked the pack. He was only 16. I think she believes he will make her his Luna and chosen mate." She says.

"Well if that's what they both want." I say. I know one can find happiness with a chosen mate.

"I'm not so sure the alpha wants to take a luna at all. He reeks of a new girl every other day." She says and her eyes bulge out as she notices her slip of a tongue as I reek of Xander right now.

"I'm so sorry. I didn't mean... I am... Oh my gosh!" Myrtle stumbles on her words.

I laugh at her humiliation.

"Oh it's quite alright. I'm not with Xander." I say and she looks at me then back at him and at me again.

"His scent.." She says.

"He did it on purpose. Now I know he just wanted to get a reaction out of Jade, putting me on her shit list." I say and Myrtle rolls her eyes as she lightly chuckles.

"Well, at least we know she won't fight you over him." She jokes. I laugh with her and Xander spares a look our way.

He stops fighting and starts to walk our way.

"Oh I think we caught the attention of the alpha." I say but Myrtle is quiet as a mouse and standing up straight.

Xander stops in front of us and glares at Myrtle, who then scurries off to the group of girls on the training field.

Then his eyes lock with mine. If I didn't feel the surge of sexual electrical energy before, I definitely feel it now. My body was calling out to his and his calling out to mine.

"I thought I said to take 5."He says. I heard what he said to me but my body was focused on other things.

Like how his sweat was dripping down his chest and down his stomach to... oh.

Or how his 5 o'clock shadow looked in the sunlight and how it would feel rubbing against my thighs when he went down on me.

My body was on a mission of it's own as I bit my bottom lip, his eyes following my movement. Making me wet which he could clearly smell as he closed his eyes and savored the scent. When his eyes opened again, they were black. His wolf present.

I clenched my thighs together and bit the inside of my cheek to suppress a moan when he released a low growl. If I was wearing a dress, my wetness would be dripping down my legs.

"Sabrina...." He says to me, looking like he's having an inner battle with himself. My body was calling out to him, if we were in wolf form, his wolf would've mounted me already.

Just the thought snapped me out of it and I stepped back from him and raised my hands in surrender. I continued to step back and he growled at me again.

A gush of wetness left my folds and I could feel my leggings were soaked. He inhaled again and ran his hand through his hair as I continued to step back.

"Stand still Sabrina.." He said in this low husky voice and a moan escaped me.

My hand shot to my mouth as embarrassment took over me and i turned around and ran in to the woods.

A loud growl pushed me to run faster until I saw a clearing with a beautiful lake at the end. I was tackled but before I could hit the ground, I was flipped around and unconsciously my legs wrapped around my attacker as I hit the ground with a thud.

"I told you not to run."Xander says in that husky voice again. This time I bite my bottom lip to suppress a moan but I push my chest out to feel his naked warm chest on my covered one.

His pants in the way.

He takes his one finger to pull my lip from my teeth and I take that as an opportunity to suck on his finger. He closes his eyes and groans as he pushes his hard member on my core. This time, a loud moan escapes me.

Shocking me out of my horny state. I quickly push Xander off me and I move back creating some space between us.

"I'm so sorry. I'm not usually like this." I say as a blush makes it's way up my neck to my cheeks. Xander smirks as he fixes his sweats and I notice his thick bulge.

"Like what? A seductress?" He asked playfully. Clearly enjoying this as I stand here mortified.

"I don't seduce! I wasn't.." I try to finish my sentence but he interrupts me.

"You weren't what? Sucking on my finger not so long ago?" He says and I close my eyes a I remember what just happened.

"That was insanely hot Sabrina." He says in that husky voice again and I close my eyes and clench my thighs. He will not get to me again.

"Look I don't know why but I'm acting all sex crazed and I've only ever been with one man. I am certainly not ready for another so I'm gonna go. I'm really sorry alpha." I say and I walk past him.

He pulls my hand and turns me around.

"Ever had heat?" He asks and my eyes bulge out.

Oh no.

I wasn't ready for this.

If I felt the heat, that means Max will feel it too. He will know I'm in heat and his wolf will try find me.

"No..." I say starting to panic.

"They didn't teach you about what happens when you lose your innocence and get marked?" He asks me with one eyebrow raised.

Of course they taught us that but I gave myself to Max. I never thought I'd be in this situation without him. How was I going to survive?!

How was I going to make it through the week of hell without having sex with someone....

I was in trouble.
