Chapter 16

Marissa’s POV

We got into the car and I sat in the back seat quietly with my head down. i was trying not to listen to their conversation but by now ive already picked up that they were going to invite Cassidy and Claire over for the night. There was two of them and two sluts, I wonder what's going to happen………

I stared out the window, looking at the trees that passed by swiftly. Some part of me wanted to get out of here and explore the world, yea I would come back here every once in a while and when I was done I would return. But I want to know another life, something different so if I would move away for a couple years I wouldn’t be to mad at the idea, I would actually welcome it. maybe I would talk to the alpha about that later.

I was independent enough to travel on my own, I wanted to go to Europe mostly. Then travel to more of soul America, places I haven’t been able to have a taste of yet. But I guess I'm getting a little to wrapped up in my imagination right now. I just remembered that I had my first training session today with the private fighting that the alpha had set up for me. I already knew I wasn’t going to become great, but a few extra pointers couldn’t hurt.

When we got home I mumbled a ‘thanks and walked inside, I had to get changed and meet in the alpha office. I change into a pair of shorts and I tank top while I tied my hair up and removed whatever makeup I had on. I then ran down the stairs and knocked on the alpha’s office door. “Come in Marissa” I entered and I saw him and another man standing there.

The man beside him was young, roughly in his early twenties, maybe twenty-one or twenty-two. He had short dirty blonde hair and dark brown eyes. he was really tall and well built, his face showed no emotion as he looked over me though. “Marissa this is John he is one of the most elite fighters in the country, he trained at one of the top fighting schools for years and he will be the one training you”

I looked over him again and I was kind of nervous to be training with someone so advanced. He was going to think I knew nothing about fighting- which was half true. “Nice to meet you I'm Marissa” I stuck out my hand but he just looked at it. ok that was rude, I took back my hand and looked up at him. he looked like he was all about business and that was just not fun.

“Ok so what’s my training schedule anyway?” I did not want to be stuck training with ‘John’ every day for I don’t know how long. “You will train with him on Monday Tuesday and Fridays. This will roughly go on for about two months or so. There is a purpose for all of this and I will let you know when you are done with your training. The sessions will be from five to seven or you guys can start later. It’s really up too you two.” I nodded but my eyes didn’t leave Johns. I didn’t know what his problem was but I was going to find out because spending six hours a week with him for eight weeks isn’t going to go to well with me if he’s going to act like this all the time.

“Ok well the training area has been sealed off so you two can have you time there. Dismissed” I left the office and john followed after me. I walked straight into the training room without a second glance behind me, I'm sure he can follow.

When we reached there he closed the door behind him and I turned myself to face him. I crossed my arms over my chest and stared at him, waiting for him to say something. “Ok so let’s get started with basic fighting in human form” I shook my head; I wanted to know what his deal was first. “No first you’re going to tell me what your whole moody deal is, your acting so mean” that was the nicest way I could put it. I didn’t exactly want him too get pissed off at me either.

“Well I see why the alpha picked you, and this is only business. I have trained hundreds of wolfs and you are simply just another one of them. this will all be over in two months and we will most likely never see each other again” oh so he thought I would be just like the other and he could act like this was nothing? Well I make an impression.

“No, I am not just another wolf you trained, you can act like that with whoever else you want but you’re not going to be acting all business around me. you’re going to get to know me and we are going to be civil, that’s not a question it’s a statement” I warned. And to my surprise a smile tugged at the ends of his lips.

“I guess you’re not just like all the others, you make quite an impression Marissa” his smile made me feel proud of myself because it seemed like I had gotten through some part of him, but it wasn’t done yet.

“Well then let’s get started’ I suggested, he rolled his eyes but still had the smile plastered on his face. “Ok first you’re going too………

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Two hours later I was exhausted and probably bruised, I had gotten my ass kicked but I did learn a lot. Some weak points in a wolf and some easy targets, I also learned how to tell what move a wolf was going to make next. Yea he taught me human to wolf from first, tomorrow we’re going to do human to human and then on Friday we’re going to do wolf on wolf.

I took another gulp of my water and looked back over at him with a glare, “I’ll cya tomorrow Marissa!” he said enthusiastically . “Sure!” I said faking cheeriness and then walking out. I was so going to be soar in the morning.

Zane’s POV

When got home Marissa practically ran inside the house in a hurry, “What her rush?” I asked, I knew she didn’t want to be in a car with me but it wasn’t that bad. I had offered her my sweater today but I could see she didn’t want to take it.

I was slowly trying to make it all up to her, every little gesture counted. “Oh she has some training sessions” I gave him a confused look, I never heard about any pack training.

“What your dad wanted to talk to me about this morning had to do with that. All he told me was the a private training was going to be coming and training Marissa for the two months three times a week. I don’t know why but he didn’t tell me he just said it was so she could learn to fight better and he had a plan for her” he shrugged.

That was weird, my dad never mentioned anything like that to me and he usually tells me pack business unless he’s unsure or it’s some kind of secret. “Ok so Claire and Cassidy are coming over for sure tonight” he said and I groaned, I didn’t want any of them here. I didn’t want Marissa seeing me with them because then she would get the wrong idea and id be back to square one.

“Oh come on it’ll be fun” he encouraged, I was only going along with this because he was one of my best friends. They were staying the night and I know Cassidy was going to be all over me….. Claire had a thing for Derek and I know she was going to stop at nothing to get him.

“did you see Kyle or Sean today?” Derek asked. Actually now that I think about it I haven’t, I would have seen Sean because he hangs out with Marissa and Kyle because he is usually with me. “No I haven’t, I'm going to have to find out where they were all day”

We got out of the car and walked into the house. The girls were coming over in one hour, Which means in one hour I'm going to be suffocated by Cassidy and her annoying habits. Claire wasn’t bad, she was a friend to me and she knew that was all she ever was. I made sure of that when I met her, it’s usually me her and Kyle that hang out and then Derek will tag along sometimes.

But Kyle’s been going off with Sean and Marissa more now so we haven’t been as close. I sat myself on the couch and let out a sigh… this was going to be one hell of a night.

Marissa’s POV

I walked out of the training room with john following close behind me. he was in a simple pair of black training shorts and no shirt on. he caught up to me and started walking alongside. “So are you staying in the pack house too?” I asked s we walked through the house. this house was huge and the training room was on the other side of the house from where the living room and all the bedrooms were.

“Yea and guess what, I'm in the spare bedroom next too yours” he smiled teasingly and I groaned playfully. “Well then I guess I have a chance to bug you every day” I said happily as he groaned. “How old are you anyways?” he asked completely changing the subject.

“Seventeen almost eighteen, you?” he only looked a couple years older than me. “I'm twenty, just turned it actually.” As he said that we walked into the living room, the stairs were at the side of it so we had to walk through it.

I saw Derek Zane Cassidy and Claire sitting on the couch watching a movie. Cassidy was cuddled into Zane’s side but he turned to look at me and john as we walked in the room. I noticed his eyes go a shade darker as he looked at john which just made me smirk. John was pretty good looking, and him walking around without a shirt on was even better. he had some nice abs to stare at, I would know.

“Who’s he” Zane tried to ask calmly. It might have fooled everyone else but I didn’t miss the rude tone in his voice as he said it. “It’s John my new trainer” I said happily. John was giving me an amused look, as if he knew what I was doing but he played along with it. “yea I'm staying with her for the next two months” he added in.

Zane’s eyes narrowed, but what reason did he have to care? It’s not like he loved me or anything… “I never heard anything about someone coming to stay here for two months. I would have been informed of it” did he think using that threatening voice was going to make John go running? “News flash you’re not the alpha, only the alpha has to know these things and since he set it all up I think John is all good to stay here” I said taking John’s hand and pulling him towards the stairs.

“Well- “Goodnight Zane” I cut him off and pulled John up the stairs with me. when we reached the top I let go of him and started walking towards my room, I needed a shower. “Ex boyfriend?” he asked as we reached the top.

“not even close, he just thinks that he owns me’” I rolled my eyes of the thought. Zane thought he could order me to do whatever he wanted well I could do whatever I wanted he’s not the boss of me. “Well maybe he just wants you.” I snorted and turned to face him.

“Me and Zane aren’t like that.” I stated looking into his eyes. Suddenly I bursted out laughing and he gave me a confused look. Everything was so serious for a second I couldn’t help it. I didn’t like when things had so much tension in them.

“You are just something else Marissa” john said but I could hear the amusement in his voice. “Well your not even something, I don’t even know what you are” I commented back making him laugh. that made no sense at all…..

“I need a shower, ill make sure to come and bug you before I go to bed though” I said not even waiting for him to reply before walking in my room and closing the door behind me. I was already starting to like John, once he came out of his ‘business’ mood then he was a fun guy, not to mention hot.

The first thing I did was take a shower, I was all sweaty from the work out but it did me some good. I felt pretty good. But after this I needed to figure out where Sean and Kyle were all day. they would have texted me normally and it was kind of weird how I haven’t seen them at school nor here…
