hair.
He’d kissed the side of my head, his fingers stroking through my “What I want is in this pack. What I want, is you. I have no intention of leaving here without you and if you’re happy here, then I’m willing to give it a chance. You’re my mate and I trust you.”
We’d made love again, this time with me initiating because of how
happy his words had made me. We’d finally fallen asleep after that and
I’d woken in his arms, excited to take him to warrior training.

“Your sister said your father was the Lead Warrior of your pack and you were following in his footsteps,” I tell him.
“Let me guess, the Gamma in your wants a challenge,” he says, smiling
at me.
“I want to know how strong my mate is,” I say, nipping at his lip before leaping out of bed, barely escaping his arms as he tried to catch me.
I giggle and get some clothes, having also gotten some for him.

“I imagine your Alpha is going to want to test me first,” he says, looking nervous.
“Probably, but he’s a good Alpha. He’s nothing like Alpha Leo based on what you’ve told me.”
He looked nervous as we’d walked outside hand–in–hand. But he did the warmup beside me and when Alpha Hunter called him over, I

joined him.
“Penny, I’m not going to hurt your mate,” Alpha Hunter said.
“I know. He may not, but do. But that’s not why I’m here. Beth said she thought Jaime was a good enough warrior to defeat his Alpha. I want to see if she was exaggerating.”
Alpha Hunter raises his eyebrow. “Well, not every Alpha trains like I do, but I’m intrigued. Are you that good?” he asks Jaime.
“I guess we’ll find out,” Jaime says.
Alpha Hunter takes a defensive stance and gestures for Jaime to attack. Jaime is tentative at first, pulling punches and not putting himself out there. I can see that he’s a bit out of practice, but he’s got good instincts and when Alpha Hunter starts pushing him, he finally begins to show his knowledge and strength.
“Nice, but you’re still pulling your punches, Jaime. I’m an Alpha, hit me. I want to know how strong you really are,” Alpha Hunter says.
Jaime steps back and Alpha Hunter looks at him. “I don’t know what your experience has been in the past, but I’m guessing you weren’t on didn’t take the run because things were good in your pack. Since you your sisters with you, I’m guessing whatever the problem, it was directed at you. I’m not the kind of Alpha who takes offense when someone shows their strength. On the contrary, if I feel like they are good enough to take me on and they aren’t an Alpha, then I need to get better, stronger. Now, if your sister thinks you’re strong enough to defeat an Alpha, any Alpha, then you’re either holding back or you’ve gotten weak while you’ve been on the run.”

Alpha Hunter makes a point of looking over Jaime’s body. “You don’t look weak to me, so stop holding back. Give me what you’ve got,” he says, getting into a defensive position again.
“Come on, Jaime. Alpha likes a tough challenge. Show him what you‘ ve got,” Beta Lucas says, clapping his hands to encourage Jaime as he walks over to watch. I see the other warriors stop and begin to watch and cheer Jaime on. He turns looking at them with a frown, then turns
to me.
I just smile at him. “I want to see what you’ve got too,” I tell him.
Jaime turns and looks at Alpha Hunter before finally getting into an attack stance. I can feel the difference in him immediately. This time when he goes at Alpha, he goes hard, and I can see Alpha’s surprise before he begins sparring back just as hard. Jaime takes hits, but he gives almost as many as he gets. The warriors are all cheering him on, as am I, proud that my mate is such an accomplished, powerful fighter.
When Alpha Hunter finally calls it, the crowd cheers and I rush into Jaime’s arms. He wraps his sweaty arms around me, but I don’t care. I‘ m so proud of him.
“Now that was a good fight,” Alpha Hunter says, slapping Jaime on the shoulder as he makes his way inside. “Well done. If you stay, we’ll get you back to fighting strength and you’ll be even better.”
“Alpha Hunter,” Jaime calls, still holding on to me tightly. “For the record, I don’t think I could defeat you.”
“Something to strive for, Jaime,” he says and continues inside.

Jaime turns back, kissing me deeply, making heat spread through my body and heating my core which is still sore from last night.
