Chapter 12

Amy, the trainer (POV)

I knew I was late getting out there, but I met my mate last night – my long-time boyfriend. We had been waiting to mate until we found out we were true mates. Last night, he shifted for the first time, confirming that we were indeed true mates. We spent most of the night mating, and then once again this morning. However, he had to get back to duty as a guard, and I had to head out to the training field. While I was talking to the recruits, I noticed the Luna was outside with us. I informed her that she didn't have to be out there, but she insisted. When I told her I wouldn't take it easy on her, she replied that she wouldn't have it any other way. Smirking to myself, I thought we'd see how she handled the pressure, considering some people quit after just a day of training.

"Alright, guys! I want to see those legs moving. Come on, eighty laps, let's get moving!" I ran alongside them to keep them going, doing my best to encourage everyone to push themselves. If it were up to me, I would have everyone graduate, but you can't force them to stay in training. It takes three months for them to graduate here, but if you attend warrior camp, it takes five years because they aim for the best. I knew Tessa was talented and knowledgeable. I had recommended to the Alpha to send her there as I wanted her to be the best warrior ever. She would be returning soon. However, when it came to the Luna, I didn't know much about her, so I wanted to see what she was made of. I instructed everyone to do eighty laps and looked up to see her ahead of everyone on her final lap. Well, let's see what else she's got.

"Alright, guys, drink some water and then line up. Like I mentioned before, the training will get tougher and tougher. Once you graduate, you will be with other warriors who have been here before you; they will train you further. You cannot afford to fail. So, let's get through this today. You've been training for a week now. Today marks the end of the warm-ups. Tomorrow will be challenging as you will spar with a partner to demonstrate your skills to me. However, if I catch you trying to hurt someone intentionally, you will be dismissed. Is that understood?"

"Yes, ma'am."

Alright, let's do this. I want to see eighty squats. Come on, let me see them." I was walking back and forth, watching everyone do them. Then, I stood in front of the Luna. She was doing some kind of squat, but she would squat for a second, kick a leg out, and then stand up to repeat the process. Okay, well, then she knew what she was doing. She was strong; I gave her that. After the squats were done, I then said,

"Alright, I want to see eighty sit-ups. Come on, let's see them." I again walked back and forth until the sit-ups were done, then the push-ups. The Luna did not let up; she just kept going and going. She did the leg lifts and then the pull-ups. Damn, she was good. The warm-ups were finally done.

"Alright, everyone, you know the drill. I want everyone out here in the morning at five am. Don't be late. You will meet the Order Warriors before you start your sparring. Once you meet them, they will head to their post, and then you will start with the sparring. That way, I can see what you can do. If you need corrections, then I will do that. But as I've said before, if you try to hurt someone, you will be cut. Tessa, Luna, can you stay back for a few moments, please? I would like to speak with both of you." Everyone else left, and then I started speaking with them.

"Luna Angela, you were in the warrior camp with Tessa. Am I correct?"

"Yes, you are correct. Is there something wrong?"

"No, nothing is wrong, but everything is right, Tessa. Why didn’t you tell me Luna was a badass?"

"Because I wanted you to see for yourself. I didn’t want you to take my word. I wanted you to see it for your own eyes."

Well, Luna Angela, I know you are new to this pack, but I want to welcome you. I hope you will encourage all the recruits just like I do. I know I'm hard on them, but I have to be. No rogue is going to be nice. The first chance they get, they will rip their hearts out. I need them tough. I need them to be ready so that when they graduate and the warriors take over, I want them to know what they are doing.

"Amy, honey, you don't have to worry about that. I will encourage them as much as they need it. I have no problem doing that. Rest assured, I am on your side."

"Thank you, Luna Angela, that means a lot to me. Alright, I'll see you out here again tomorrow; I'm heading to see my mate.” Angela turned to Tessa.

“You know, Amy seems cool. I like her.”

Trust me, she is, but she's tough on us because, like she says, she wants us to be able to know what to do once it's all done and over with. But the training never stops; even the warriors train every single morning before they start their shift running the borders. Let's go inside. I know the alpha is probably wanting to see you, and well, I need a shower." We headed toward the pack house, and yep, Alpha Austin was waiting for us at the door. He was smiling from ear to ear.
