He turns and looks at Eli and 1. “You two should expect to start hearing from some supernaturals as well. Word of your awakening and placement in a newly formed pack will spread quickly, Grace.‘

I nod, not entirely sure what to expect if other supernaturals come to our borders.

The next morning, as we are getting ready, I notice new clothes in my bag.

“What is this?” I ask, turning to Eli, holding the clothes in my hands.

He walks up to me. “Just a little something I know you need and will help you with your training.”

I wrap my arms around his neck. I love low

he is always thinking of sweet little ways to show me how much he loves me. “Thank you.” I tell him, kissing him and pressing myself against him.

“Don’t start something you can’t finish, little Alpha.” He says kissing my nose

“Later, then.” I promise.

“Later.”

When we’re ready, we head out to the training field and I note that several of Rik’s warriors stay behind to watch.

I walk over to where Rik has set up a seat for Cara. I have never seen someone that is supposed to be on bedrest spend so much time out of bed. “What’s going on over there?” I ask, watching the group of warriors as they glance around and look like they are passing money back and forth.”

“Oh, that’s Dean. He’s our resident bookie. They’re making bets on today.”

“Bets about what?”

“Hey Dean.” Cara calls out to him. He comes trotting over.

“What are today’s bets?” She asks him.

He looks at his sheet. “There’s a bet on who will win between Alpha Liam and Alpha Eli. Currently, odds are in Alpha Liam’s favor. There’s a bet about whethe Trevor can withstand Luna Grace’s aura and for how long. Those odds are in Luna Grace’s favor, although not as much as I’d expect since she’s a Guardian. He stops, looking up at me. “No offense, Luna, but you are an unknown.”

He looks down at his pad again. “There’s a bet on whether or not Luna Grace an

Alpha Eli can mind link to their pack from here. Odds in favor of no. And here’s bet on who will win it Alpha Rik and Alpha Liam spar, odds on Alpha Rik.” He looks up. “Anything else Lunas? Want to place a bet?”

I shake my head. When he jogs back to the group, I look at Cara. “I think your pack has a gambling problem.” I say, only half joking.

She laughs. “It’s a fun way for them to blow eam. Dean knows that if things

get out of hand with someone that he needs to let Rik know, and he handles it privately. It doesn’t happen often, but it does on occasion.”

Ailduin calls me over. “Okay, let’s start with your aura. You know how to manipulate your aura, correct?”

“Yes, Liam helped me replace the strength in my aura.” I tell him.

“Excellent.” He turns to Rik. “Who will be our test subject today?”

“Hey Trevor.” He calls and Trevor comes jogging up and huge smile on his face. He stops in front of us.

“So, I get to take on another Guardian.” He starts hopping back and forth on the balls of his feet like he can’t wait for me to push him around with my aura. The people in this pack are a bit crazy.

Ailduin tells me to push my aura out, trying to control it until I feel Trevor start to push against it. Then to continue to add strength until I force him to his knees. I look at Trevor.

“You’re okay with this?” I ask him. Who volunteers for this?

“Are you kidding? A chance to test my strength against a Guardian. I’d do that all day every day. Let’s see what you’ve got Luna.” He says, cracking his neck then standing back before giving me the ‘come on‘ gesture with this hands.
