I look at Titus and then look away. I felt the bond try to push us towards each other. I let out a shaky breath and look away from his captivating eyes.

"Watch her for a few my wolf needs a release," I mumble to Jacob and walk out and slam the door on my way out.

"Sophia?" I don't think it's a good idea to go into the woods right now. The rouge attacks are increasing and I don't think it's safe for you," I heard Jacob call after me. I freeze in my position and sigh. I put my back up to the wall and sigh.

"Fine," I huff. I just needed a break away from Titus. I walk around the pack house meeting the pack. I might as well since Titus isn't doing it. I look out the large windows and accidental bump into someone.

"I'm so sorry," I say looking at the girl. She looked at me at disgust.

"Watch where your going," she spat. I look at her surprised.

"Watch how your talking pup," I say back to her. Realization rushes over her face and she smirks.

"Your Sophia. The rejected slut he chose over me. I should have been his Luna and he knows that," she growls at me.

"Watch your tongue. You have about 4 different scents of males on you so don't tell me I'm a slut," I growl louder. She roles her eyes and leans on her back foot.

"He wants me. He always has you just got in the way. I'll make sure you won't be able to again," she says and walks away. I scoff and walk the other way. I look at the time and it's been an hour or so. I walk back to Titus' office and Tala runs to me. I give her a smile and tell Jacob goodbye.

"Is my mommy coming back?" She asks me. My heart broke for her. I didn't know. I don't know if she'll come back at all.

"I don't know but we'll find her okay?" She nods and leans her head on my shoulder. She went limp in my arms and her breathing evened out. I opened the door to the house and layer her on my bed.

I pick up the phone next to my bed and dial for Brody.

"Hello?" I heard.

"Are you done with all you pack work because I really need a release of my anger," I whisper.

"Why are we whispering," he whispers through the phone. I roll my eyes and sigh.

"Tala is sleeping right now and I'm next to her," I say. He made a sound of realization and I laughed.

"Yeah I'm just going through my last papers for a new pack member I'll be done in a few minutes and I'll come," he says. I nod then realize that he couldn't see me. I mentally slap myself and go back to talking to him.

"Alright. Who's the new pack member?" I ask in curiosity. Tala stars to shift in the bed and a made a point to talk quiet.

"Didn't Titus tell you? We're making Tala an official member of the pack." I almost dropped my phone. This was important how could he not tell me. Maybe that's what he wanted to tell me last night.

"Alright I'll see you in a few," I say and hang up. I place the pack phone down and walked outside, shutting the the door quietly on the way out. I walk to the island and see a note.

Dear Luna,

I had to leave to attend to my duties at the pack house. Please forgive me for having to leave. I'll see you tomorrow Luna.

-Charlotte

I sigh and let out a chuckle. She didn't need to apologize or call me Luna. I set the note down and went to get orange juice. I opened the fridge and there was no sign of orange juice. I groan when I look in the trash and saw the empty bottle of orange juice.

"You should really try to drink water some times. Orange juice all the time is bad for you," I heard someone say from beside me. I scream and landed my fist on his face.

"Brody you can't do that to me," I scream at him. He laughs and holds his jaw and looks at me.

"Hah now we're even. Except I didn't attack you when you scared me," he points out.

"Actually if I remember correctly. You continued to chase me around the house and tried to make me say 'Brody is the manliest man'," I contradict. He laughs and points at me.

"You just said it." I roll my eyes at his childish acting.

"Wait I need someone to watch Tala while I'm out," I realize. I couldn't move her so someone would have to come here and watch her.

"I can go and get one of the omega's to watch her while we're out," Brody says.

"That won't be necessary," I heard beside me. I screamed again and went to punch the person again but they caught my hand. His touch sent sparks up my arm and made me shiver. How did I not smell him come in. Maybe it's because everything here smells like him.

"I'll take Sophia out and spar with her you can watch Tala," he says pointing at him. He groans.

"I'm stuck on babysitting duty?" He pouts and grumbles.

"When she wakes up make sure she gets something to eat and while she's sleeping can you get someone to get more orange juice?" I ask. He nods and spaced out, probably mind linking.

"You have to say goodbye to your family first," Titus whispers in my ear sending shivers down my spine. The mates pull made me want to make him take me right there, but I knew I was not ready for that.

I nod and he leads me out of the house and towards the driveway of the pack house. My family was standing there and Terry stood there with Kira. She had bags under her eyes probably from all the crying. James looked at me and his face lit up.

"You're leaving so fast?" I smirk. He nods sadly.

"I wish I could stay longer and hang out with you but there's issues we have to deal with back at the pack," he explains. I nod and give him a big hug.

"Make sure you visit and have time for us when your Luna," he whispers. I give him a light smile and look at him.

"I could never not have time for you in my life," I smile. I looked at my parents and walk to them and gave them a hug.

"I'll make sure I'll visit you soon," I tell them. They nod and smile at me.

"We're so proud of you," my mom says. I smile and lightly nod at both of them.

"Thank you," I whisper. Tears brimming

my eyes. I didn't know when I would see them next. I walk to Terry and heard Titus' low growls of disapproval. I dismiss them and walk continue.

"You're going to make a great Alpha," I tell him. He nods and I see Kira glare at me.

"I'm sorry," he whispers. I roll my eyes. He growls lightly at the disrespect I was showing him. I felt Titus' hands on my shoulders leading me out of the situation. They got into their car and waved goodbye and drove off.

"You're going to watch my warriors train today and take notes on how they fight," he tells me. I look at him in disbelief.

"My training is more vigorous then warriors' trainings," I tell him. He shakes his head.

"My warriors are trained by me. You are not. You need to learn my tactics of fighting," he tells me.

"And what if I'm attached. I'm sure if they get through your warriors, they will know your fighting techniques. So, if I learn them I'll be at a disadvantage because they'll know what I know," I tell him.

"It's nice to know some more tactics," he says dismissing what I just said. I roll my eyes and sigh.

"Your warriors use strength and force. They don't have speed. Fighting your way through everything won't help if you can't get out of that situation," I point out. He lets out an agitated sigh and stayed silent. We walked up to the large training area and warriors were lined up in a row.

"Today I have my mate with me so she will be watching us today," he announces. I scanned the row of warriors and only recognized one. Nikolai. I gave him a small smile and he nods.

"Luna," they all greet bowed in submission. I felt power emitting from them. I nod and they all lift their heads.

"Alright who would like to go first?" Titus asks. One warrior stepped out of the line. He had mussels and dirty blonde hair that flopped over his face.

"Okay who's is going to go against Christopher?" Titus asks. I watch as someone starts to come forward but I was quicker.

"I will," I announce. Everyone's eyes widen I think I even saw Titus eyes widen slightly. I smirk and he nods. Chris walks into the fighting area and I follow.

"You don't need to go easy on me just because I'm the Luna," I tell him while tying my hair up.

"I wasn't planning to Luna," he smirks. He gets in position, bending his knees and leaning forward. I would be able to beat him in strength but definitely in speed.

"No shifting until I say so," Titus says. We both nod and I bend my knees and my elbows.

"3. 2. 1. Go," he says counting down. I smile as he quickly charges at me. I watch his footing as he plants his foot into the ground and lands a punch on my stomach. I heard a protective growl come from Titus but I was already to focused to fight back with him.

"Why aren't you fighting back Luna?" He says circling me. I smirk and notice he starts to run up to me. He plants his left foot in the ground and swung his arm. I duck and grab it mid air. I use my strength and flip him onto his back using my body.

He lets out a series of coughs from getting the wind knocked out of him but he got back on his feet.

"Lets speed it up it's getting boring to watch," I heard someone yell out. I turn to the source of the voice and it was someone I've never see before.

"Rule number 1. Don't take your eye of your opponent," I heard Caleb say. I smirk as everything around us was quiet. I focused my hearing waiting for him to steady himself before punching me. It never came so I assumed he was going to try to get me off my feet. I jumped as he tried to swipe me off my feet and socked him in the face.

He stumbles backwards but catches himself. He swings his arm at my face and I duck and swipe him off his feet. He did a back roll until he was on his hands and feet. He got up and charged at me. He looks up his eyes glowing a golden. He ran to me catching me off guard. He wraps his arms around me and slams me into the tree.

I let out a groan as I saw his fist in front of my face. I move my head out of the way and his fists gets lodged into the tree I was currently pinned on. The large splinters of wood cause his hand to be stuck in the tree. I take this chance and let my wolf come out. I felt my canines lengthen and so did my claws. I took my hand and stabbed my claws into his back and dragged my hand down it. He growls at me and tries to bite my arm but I send a blow to his stomach. He stumbles backwards which cause his arm to be free. He sends that fist straight to my face.

He was to quick after he got loose. I stumbled onto my back and held my hand to my face. Blood came from my lip and stained my hand. He held his hands on me so I couldn't move. I thrashed under him trying to get free. He lifted his hand to try to get another punch at me but I grabbed his fist before he could hit my face. The impact on my shoulder caused me to groan softly. I pushed through the pain used my strength and crushed his fist. He retracted his fist quickly in pain.

My wolf begged to be let out and have full control to do whatever she could to take out her anger. I flashed my golden eyes at Titus begging him to be let loose. He gives me a nod and I smile.

"Shift," he announces. I heard a few cheers from the small crowd as my wolf came forward. I let her take control as she was released of the cage of skin. She stood proudly eyeing the male in front of us. She let out a powerful roar and he quickly shifted to his gray wolf. I felt the power radiating from my wolf. The male jumped through the air making his fist move. My wolf jumped at him tackling him to the ground. He growled and sank his teeth into my shoulder. I whimper in pain and bared my teeth at him. I felt his teeth reach bone and he let go. He got out of my hole from under me and snarled at me.

She licked her mouth as she swiftly made her way zig-zagging her way around the male and sinking her teeth into his back. He arched his back in pain and sank to the ground. She planted her foot on his neck and growled at him to submit.

He growled in defiance but I snapped my teeth at him. He whimpered at the disapproval of his Luna and turned his head in submission. My wolf puffed up in pride and quickly ran to Titus. I pulled her back and I shifted back to skin. He took his shirt off and put it on me being careful not to hit any of my bruises. I saw the she-wolves drool at the sight of Titus shirtless. I saw one come up and grab his arm. It was the same girl I saw earlier. She looks at me and smirks.

"Titus baby can you fix my bra clasp please. I think it came loose," she asks turning around and lifting her shirt up. I rolled my eyes at this slut and leaned on my back foot. He fixed it and pulled her shirt back down. She turned around and smiled at him.

"Thank you," she said pecking his lips and skips off to her friends. I didn't wait to hear Titus apologize. I ran off into the woods in anger.
