The warrior in red

Chapter 2 Last day before spring break

Chloe POV

Friday is here and spring break is here. Can´t wait for tomorrow where I am traveling to spend time with my brothers. I have missed them so much. Last time I saw them was for Christmas when they came home to visit our grandparents and me for the holiday.

I get up early as always. It´s 4:30 AM and the sun is beginning to rise over the forest. I love this time of the day. I quickly get up and get dress in tights and sports bra and a tee. I grab my sneakers and run downstairs. Grandma is already making breakfast for when grandpa and I are done with training. Grandpa has been training me since he and grandma came to take care of us when our parents died when I was 6. I love them to bits. 

"Good morning grandma. Is grandpa already outside?" I ask her while kissing her on the cheek and she nods out the kitchen window where I spot my grandpa already setting the course up for today’s training. I like it when he makes a course for me. It keeps me on my toes and is never boring. Grandpa always makes it tuff for me just so I can be the best of best according to him. I know he just wants me to be able to stand my ground no matter what happens.

I run outside and is met by my first order of the day. “Run 3 times around the field!” Grandpa tells me. I start running and after awhile I am done and heads back to the training course. Grandpa smiles at me. “Now let´s see what you got!” He nods to the trunk that rolls when I walk on it so it´s about keeping the balance while grandpa throws stones, sticks etc. after me. I like this bit a lot. After 4 runs at it I am off to the next obstacle: Jumping from one pole to another with blindfold on. It´s about trusting my instinct and get to know my surroundings. I make through without falling but I nearly had 3 misses. But made it through without falling. My grandma is very proud I can sense it. My grandpa isn´t that easy to read. Another trunk 5 feet in the air and my grandpa throw me a huge stick. Time to fight my grandpa. We go back and forth where he teaches me defense and attack. I love this so much. Just spending time with him and grandma.

She is making breakfast while watching us through the window. She smiles as she watches us go back and forth. The last task for my training is learning to use bow and arrows. As grandpa says it is easier to use and your opponents won´t hear it as they will with a gun or riffle. My dad taught me to use a riffle as well as bow and arrow. I prefer the bow and arrow just like grandpa. “Breakfast is ready!” Grandma yells at us. Grandpa hugs me and says: “You did great today kiddo! And get a quick shower and come down for breakfast”. I run up the stairs and into my room. I quickly take a shower and get dressed in jeans, a cream color tee, a huge sweatshirt (my brothers) and sneakers. I run downstairs and sit by the table where my grandma and grandpa are already debating their day.

Around 7.15 AM Sherry comes to pick me up. We like walking to our high school together. She greets me with a hug and waves at my grandparents. They wave back as we begin out 35 minutes’ walk to our school. We always talk about school but today we are talking about the break. “I can´t wait to have a break from all those papers, tests etc. that we have been having the last couple of weeks. Are you going to the party tonight?” Sherry asks. I shake my head. “No, I have the late shift at the gym today and I am leaving early tomorrow morning. If I can make it, I might come by after work, okay?” I tell her when noticing her disappointment. She lights up when I tell he that I might come by. She is always trying to get me to go to these parties, but I really don´t like drunk people or the smell of booze.

We get to the entrance of the school before the different alphas arrive. When they arrive all the single girls are swamping the entrance in the hope of them to get a glimpse of their favorite guy. Both Sherry and I really don´t care. We both hope that our mates are omegas. All the drama around the alphas isn´t really our style. We quickly get our stuff for the first class of the day. The day seems to fly by and now it is already the end of this day. Sherry and I leave the school and go home together.

We talk about what she must wear tonight. “Hey wait up!” Anna shouts from behind. We turn around and notice her, Rosie, and Mary. Mary is Cade’s mate, and she is really sweet. Somehow, she doesn´t care about us being omegas. She likes hanging out with us when the guys are busy with training and other stuff like that. “Will you be coming tonight to the party?” Sherry nods while I shake my head: “Maybe, I have the late shift at the gym tonight and I have to travel early tomorrow morning. But I might be coming by after work”. I tell them. “Oh okay. You want to go with us then Sherry?” Mary asks. “Oh, I would love that!” Sherry says excited. “Awesome!” says Anna. We all walk together and chat about everything about school the break and everything in between

We get to our pack house where Anna lives and the rest of us split up and go off to our homes around the land of our pack. I get home and grandma has already made me some food I can bring with me to work. I quickly hug her and head to my room to change into my work clothes. I grab my backpack with the food my grandma has made for me and lots of water. I head out and grandpa meets me outside. He hugs me and I am off to work.

 Rose´s POV

Everyone is going to this party. I can´t wait because it´s the first party I am allowed to. Mother and Father don´t want us to go but they are away for the weekend and our oldest brother Alan, and his mate Aly have given us the okay. IF the guys are watching out for me. I guess Adrian told them about the stupid Roman. He is such a w***e; sleeps with every girl he wants. Not really my style. I like to wait until I find my mate. Which so fare has been over 200 years but who´s counting.

I am wearing a midnight blue dress low cut and with lace sleeves and shinny stones on the front covering my cleavage. I bring a tiny white handbag with me just enough for my phone and keys. I have white high heals on and that makes me taller. I am only 5´3 so everything helps. I walk or try to walk downstairs where I can hear Alan talking with the guys. “I know you guys are older, but she is still your sister, so you better make sure she comes home safely and without any incident!” His tone is harsh but last time we went to a party and the boys were supposed to look after me they kinda forgot and I got lost in the woods. Luckily Aly found me and that´s actually how they met. Alan never thought he would find his mate and now he has. All because of my brothers and my fantastic ability to get lost, which I don´t really. I am just so curious that I often follow that than my senses and often get into trouble.

“Hey guys, are we ready?” I ask as I come down very slowly. Alans facial expression tells it all. I look great. Aly shrieks: “You look beautifully!” she hugs me tight, and I nearly fall on my heals as she lets go. Adrian signs as he knows that he has a tuff job on hand. I smile bright at him, and he shakes his head and hand me his arm to support myself to as we walk out the front door Sean opens for us. Once outside I can walk by myself, but the carpet is so soft that my heals often gets stuck. Once in the car Sean and Adrian sit in front and me in the back. Music is playing and we talk about the party who will be there and who won´t. Party here we come.
