My Second Chance novel Chapter 14

Sapphire's P.O.V

"And this is the place we train. I'm in charge of them." Cole said proudly, pointing his fingers to himself. And you think we care because? Drew grumbled and I gave her a flat look. I shifted my eyes to the training compound and gaped at the size of it.

Ryder had went off to do his so called Alpha chores. He told me he would be back soon and Cole, one of his best friend was assigned to give me a tour. At least it's not Alec. I still think he's mad at me.

Ya think, you literally mocked him while you were being locked up, Gwen said incredulously while me and Drew cracked up mentally. Or else I would have been seen as the new weird and crazy girl... wouldn't want that would we?

"Awesome." I whispered to myself as I watched two figures that were fighting on the lawn. Both were female and they were fighting in human form. Things started to get heated and the crowd occasionally cheered or booed. Finally, a punch landed on the redhead and she fell unconscious. The dirty blonde had her back to me as she pumped her arms in the air. Cocky much?

"Good job, Jennifer. One of your best fights yet." Cole said, stepping forward as a the pack doctor pulled the unconscious redhead to aside to treat. I sensed a little unwillingness in his voice. I wonder why... she won fair and square. Although punching someone and making them unconscious is harsh, but she still fought fair, I thought. The dirty blonde turned to face us. Bitch, Gwen growled. It was the girl who fought me in the hallway earlier. A smirk formed on my lips. Anger glazed through her eyes as her eyes stopped on me. I gave her a mockingly wave and a small growl escaped her lips.

Everybody turned their attention to me. I just put on a sweet smile and innocent face. Believe it or not, people fall for my innocent looks. A few guys started checking me out and a few girls eyed me as they felt a little insecure. A few eyed me with disgust while some with envy. For Jennifer, it was distaste and fury.

Cole ignored the death glare Jennifer directed at me and asked, "so, who would you like to challenge next?" Uncomfortable murmurs rose in the crowds. Everybody scared of being chosen. I wouldn't mind, I feel like fighting, Drew sounded. Yeah, and kill her in the process, I responded sarcastically. I wouldnt mind that, Drew mused. Shut up, Drew, Gwen gave her a flat look and Drew protested. I shut them out as they started another argument.

"Her." She smirked, pointing a manicured finger at me. I raised an eyebrow at her in response. Cole visibly gulped.

"Umm... I don't think so. The Alpha specifically told me to keep this one safe. Sorry, you gotta choose someone else." Cole said, crossing his arms. Anger surged through me. What does he think I am? An infant?! "I'll take her." I said before Jennifer could get another word out. "Sapphire. The Alpha said no." Cole said and gave me a pointed look. "Tell Ryder to calm his tits." I waved my hand in the air to dismiss matter. The crowd gasped at my bold comment while Cole raised an eyebrow as him. "No. You are new and Jennifer is one of the strongest in this pack. Today be surprised at the difference of fighting level in this pack." Cole warned me. "I'll fight her, no biggie." I said with an excited grin. I haven't fought in so long, Gwen squealed in delight as she got the idea of being in a fight. I know, I responded eagerly. Yes, finally! A kick ass activity, Drew grinned. I rolled my eyes at her.
