Chapter 9


    Arora‘s POV


    I decided to ignore my mothersst message, and focused on this exam. The moderate ss was up


    next, it was almost as big as the reserve ss, but the fights went quickly, these wolves were built for


    scouting more than fighting, but were good enough to be kept out of the reserves.


    Then came the Elite ss. When it came to the final bracket, Serenity had already ced third having


    kicked Matthews ass, that was a sweet match to watch. Galen and Kian were so evenly match that


    they finally called a tie after thirty minutes of them fighting.


    V


    As they were cleaning up the arena floor for our ss Darien leans over. “You know, it‘s actually good


    that you didn‘t take Matt as your mate.”


    I‘m confused so naturally I ask, “Why?”


    He looks over at Matt in the medical tent, Serenity had caved in his face during their fight “Because


    he‘s weak as fuck”


    Iugh, it‘s the first time since being rejected that I felt that I was indeed fortunate. “I hope your mate


    doesn‘t hate me for what I‘m about to


    ring with angry disbelief in my direction. GARRETT SHADOWTAIL, MASON NORTHMOUNTAIN,


    JAMISON BLACKFIRE, JAXON MOUNTAINMOVER, LEXUS STONEMAKER, DARIEN MOONSTAR,


    AND ALORA HEARTSONG


    With each of our names read, a full body picture was shown of us in our human form, and next to it,


    was one of our wolves. Darien‘s showed him posed leaning onto a wall with his left elbow, hand and


    fingersbing the longer top part of his hair back, showing the shaved sides, his face tilted up, his


    almond shaped, amber colored, cinnamon rimmed eyes, sparkling with mischief.


    A devilish grin showing white teeth, his other hand on his hip. His wolf wasrge, a ck wolf with gray


    frosting the tips of his fur, he was posed sitting and had arge toothy grin on his muzzle.


    My picture showed me in my favorite fighters pose, my arms up, head down, my violet eyes glittering, a


    smirk on my mouth. I was wearing a purple sports bra and short ck sport shorts, showing off my


    tan skin and fit muscr body, with all my dips and curyes, I had to admit I looked really good in that


    picture.


    My wolf was in an attack pose, a snarl showing all her long sharp teeth, her white fur glowing, ck


    edging the tips of her ears, the ck crescent moon and star marking on her hip, the tip of her tail


    dipped in ck. My wolf looked beautiful and fierce. This was the picture Darien had tricked me into


    taking, saying “What could it hurt?”


    For the first time I felt pride in being on disy, making me d Darien had me take it. I looked strong,


    Material ? of N?velDrama.Org.


    and despite what my parents and sister say, I know I‘m beautiful, and my wolf was absolutely


    gorgeous. I could feel Xena preening on the inside, felt her own pride at how her image showcased her


    as fierce on screen.


    Next to me Darien said. “Maaaaan does she look pissed, bet your parents are too, yep...yep they are


    too.” I looked to where Sarah is sitting and her and the rest of her posse have jealous fury on their


    faces. I then look up to where my parents are and they‘re ring at my picture, if looks alone could set


    shit on fire, that billboard would be toast.


    The screen switched to disy all of us from first rank, from me, to the lowest rank. I hoped my parents


    were watching their status among the Northmountain‘s diminish and lower with each moment they


    realize they could have used me to be number one. But now that I changed


    my name it was Sarah‘sck of sess that is going to bring them down.


    “Pissed is going to be an understatement. These fights also determine the future cement in the


    Northmountain‘s n‘s structure. Because I changed my name, Mason‘s family will now be top ranked


    among the Northmountain‘s, my parents have just been knocked down to the bottom.” he looks at me


    with shocked eyes. “Oh shit.” he says, the smile he gets as he figures it out is wide. “Now you are


    getting why I changed my name before the exams.” I say.


    The first match is Garrett and Mason, Mason came out on top, the next match is Jamison and Jaxon,


    Jaxoning out on top. Then it was Lexus and Darien, Darien came out on top. Because I was a top


    student I wasn‘t in the first rounds.


    Mason and Jaxon fought next. Jaxon came out on top of that fight, meaning he was my first opponent.


    Then me and Darien would fight. I stand up, stretch, pop my neck, and start making my way down to


    the floor, to the Arena I would be battling in.


    I get my head into the battle. Start to think of facts. Making a n. Jaxon like Darian and the Twins was


    six foot five, he also hadrge solid muscles. He wasn‘t just strong he was fast too.


    But then, I was too. I was the fastest.


    I could use my speed to add three to five times the power behind my hits depending on what move I


    used. I like to hit nerve points that deadened the reflexes, crippling an opponent for a moment, enough


    tond more blows for a win and not a kill.


    I had different skills that I‘d use for a kill. Jaxon‘s picture was up next to mine, his human form stood


    legs spread arms crossed, he was tan with fiery red hair. His wolf, a big red muscr brute, sat with a


    calm and steady look.


    The wolf was only two or three inches bigger than my Xena, she was the biggest she–wolf in the pack.


    The size of an Alpha, one more thing that marks me as a Heartsong. My blood starts to heat, I feel the


    adrenaline start to fill my veins. I wasn‘t going to be holding back today. Xena‘s excitement at the


    impending battle was big. She was just as charged. We were finally going to be able to showcase our


    skills.


    I‘ve been training with the Alpha‘s Elite soldiers for years now. Then they brought in the senior ss to


    the dojo arena I had been doing my training in for thest three years already. I had been carful to not


    showcase the extent of my training, but I was toopetitive in a fight to note out on top. I was


    basically used to


    help train my fellow seniors.


    Luckily my parents haven‘t opened up a single piece of mail or read any notice from the school that had


    my name on it in thest four years. So they havepletely missed all my college aplishments,


    my name change, and my training advancement and ranking.


    That and per the Alpha, as ofst year, all my school mail went to him. Because he was Alpha he


    actual had the authority to sign off on anything school rted. I was in a Pack High School and a Pack


    University. Making things a lot easier for me, than they would have been if I had been in human run


    schools.


    I make it into the arena and look up at were my parents were sitting. Their fury was a living breathing


    thing, but I wasn‘t afraid anymore. I was an Adult, and the Alpha was able to keep them from harming


    my education. If they kicked me out early I‘m pretty sure the Alpha will let me move into the pack house


    early.


    So I smirk at them then I turn away to face my opponent, everything else falling away but what was


    here on this tform. I take my skirt and cardigan off. Standing in just my tank and capris, I move into a


    fighting position and wait for the signal to start.


    This was going to be fun. I thought, a grin on my face.


    Unknown POV


    Sitting in a luxury office chair behind an antique desk in a private study at an Alpha university was an


    Alpha wolf nearlyplete with training, and looking forward to going back home to his Pack. In his


    hand is the most recent picture of a violet eyed beauty.


    He still remembers the blood and mud covered, half drowned little pup he had found on the side of the


    river near the Pack House. He had helped his mother nurse the pup back to health before they


    returned her to her parents. D


    The hand not holding the picture tightened into an angry fist, he hated those people, no matter how


    hard they tried to intervene, she was still abused. He told his father he wanted her protected. It was


    part of his deal for going away to this prestigious Alpha training school.


    Only the best go here, and only the strongest, Alpha and Beta‘s graduate. His little brother had been


    her best friend for a very long time. He almost felt jealous of their deep connection, wishing he had a


    deep connection of his own with her.


    to this prestigious Alpha training school.


    Only the best go here, and only the strongest, Alpha and Beta‘s graduate. His little brother had been


    her best friend for a very long time. He almost felt jealous of their deep connection, wishing he had a


    deep connection of his own with her.


    His brother would text him with updates, one such update several years back had him calling his father,


    demanding he find a way to free her from her parents. His brother had told him she hadn‘t been to


    school in a week, he knew something was wrong.
