I watched my mate leave, completely unaware I was her mate. I knew her family was hiding something, something I was eager to find out. If she wasnât my mate, I may have reconsidered letting them into the pack. Something was amiss though they left the 2nd strongest pack, a pack her parents were born in. When I got the request I was a little shocked but also blinded by the fact that I could take them from Jackson. Our feud goes back generations so given the opportunity I took it.
His Beta was well respected and so was his mate, yet I never heard he had a child and it made me curious as to why she was a secret. I could smell she was strong, her genes strong but something was off with her too.
âShe is your mate, isnât she?â My Beta Mateo asks. He was my best friend since we were old enough to walk, always stuck by me and me, him.
I sigh no point lying to him, he knows me better than I know myself half the time.
âYes and until she realises I want to keep it quietâ I tell him and he nods his eyes sparkling with mischief.
âWhat?â I demand as he folds his arms across his chest and leans back.
âNothing now I know why you refused to come to the whore house with me, she already got you whipped and she doesnât even know who you are to herâ he says chuckling. I glare at him.
âI am not whippedâ
âWhatever man, then why did you knock back Madeline. I saw her running from your room the other night cryingâ he says.
âShe isnât my mateâ I deadpan.
âNever stopped you beforeâ
âYeah before I found her, I only want her now. You will understand when you find yoursâ I tell him.
âSo whatâs your plan then, keep giving her detention?â He says with a laugh.
âWell you ruined that didnât you, I was hoping to spend time with herâ I tell him annoyed that he lingered when he could clearly see I wanted to be alone with her.
âWhy didnât you command her parents to tell you why they really leftâ
âBecause I donât want to P!ss her parents off, they have influence over her and she trusts them. If I start off arguing with them, she will hate meâ I tell him and he sighs.
âWell what now then?â
âI donât know, I donât really have a reason to hang around her without looking like a creepâ I tell him. Mateo seems to think for a second.
âThursday night?â He says.
âPack run is friday after school, most of the Pack kids choose to stay at the packhouseâ
âI excused them for the first weekâ I tell him.
âYou are the Alpha un-excuse them, tell them Katya has to stay like the rest of the teensâ
âYes but staying at the packhouse isnât compulsory, only those that want to stayâ I tell him.
âTell them you want to keep an eye on her see how she gets on with the rest of the packâ
âHmm could work, fine I will go see her on the fieldâ I tell him. Mateo nods and also gets up.
âYou coming?â I ask and he has a mischievous grin on his face.
âWhat have you done?â
âOh nothing, but Angie was P!ssing me off so I paired her with Katya for trainingâ He says. I glare at him.
âAre you trying to P!ss me off?â I tell him. I didnât want Angie anywhere near my mate. Her Infatuation with me being the main reason but it was clear she hated Katya because I was showing interest in her and one thing about Angie was she is actually trained pretty well having five brothers to compete against that are pack warriors.
âCome on Katya is feisty, she can take her,â Mateo says.
âYou better hope so, because if she gets hurt itâs your arseâ I tell him and his face falls slightly worried.
âHer mum is one of the best warriors, her father Beta, what can go wrong?â
I could think of plenty of things that can go wrong, Angie is competitive and I know she doesnât fight fair from watching her train amongst the pack. I knew my mate could handle herself in this form. It was obvious she was fit and had good endurance, but I wasnât so sure in wolf form so that would be interesting to see, plus I was really excited about meeting her wolf.
Walking down to the fields, I sat in the grandstand overlooking the field staying out of view. At least I thought so until I saw Angie wave to me. Mateo sits next to me and I was still annoyed at him. I watch Shirley walk onto the field talking to her daughter or by the look of her, berating her daughter.
Katya looked awfully pale and was sweating profusely.
âIs she alright, she doesnât look too good?â Mateo says, also thinking the same thing. She looked ghastly as she braced her hands on her knees. I watch as Katya rushes to the bin puking in it.
âShe seemed fine before?â I tell him. Shirley, her mother was strict that much was clear, she glares at her daughter before telling her to get back on the field. I watch as my mate waits for her name to be called on the list. Her mother, not even managing to hide her shock when she is paired against Angie who was wearing a smug grin at the pairing.
Jasmine walks over gripping Katyaâs arm worriedly. At least she has one friend and I actually like Jasmine. She gets on with everyone except Angie and her cronies.
âGet it together Katâ Shirley calls to her daughter who nods. Katya shakes off Jasmineâs arm telling her to go. Jasmine reluctantly leaving.
âSomething isnât right?â I tell Mateo who also agrees.
âI donât get it, she was fine, what has changed?â He asks. Walking down the steps I stand on the edge looking down as I watch Katya and Angie move into their square. Angie takes a stance while Katya canât seem to catch her breath. My wolf howls in my head watching through my eyes. Angie lunches at Katya, Katya seeing it a little late manages to duck but stumbles back landing on her back.
Angie is about to pounce on her when Katya lifts her leg kicking her in the face knocking Angie back who growls loudly clutching her nose which was bleeding. Katya gets up and I could see sweat literally dripping off her. Something was definitely wrong.
âWolfsbaneâ My wolf Maddox growls at me and I sniff the air. I couldnât smell wolfsbane but it did make sense, it makes you terribly sick, in high doses even kill you.
âWe need to stop this, she canât fight like that, something is wrongâ Mateo says and I could see he was worried about her getting hurt, his future Luna getting hurt because he paired her with Angie. I nod about to walk down the stairs when Angie suddenly shifts.
