My Female Alpha

Chapter 5- Freakishingly Strong

 (Jakes POV)

We finished lunch more uneventfully then it had started, Quinton couldn't seem to take his eyes off the ThunderRun table and as a result I kept looking over too. Near the end of lunch they all separated and I left Quinton talking to his dad through mind link about something and went to change for battle prep. A part of Moon Light's programming was what they called "warrior training" and it was always my favourite part of the day. 

As I walked into the room I saw Kenzie and one of the other ThunderRun girls talking to our Trainer McFee. He was listening and nodding to whatever Kenzie was saying and then as he saw me, he called me over. "Jake, not sure if you've met Kenzie and Izzy but they want to make sure that I'm pairing them with our best fighters, what do you think about you fighting Izzy here and Quinton fighting Kenzie?" 

He kind of smirked as he said it and I knew that he was foreseeing us annihilating them. They had never even trained here before, how good could they be? I immediately mind linked Quinton to tell him not to come. The last thing he needed right now was to have to fight his unknowing mate. I said, "Sir, I have no problem being matched against them but Quinton can't make it today." 

He immediately paired me and Kenzie and then went off to organize all the other matches for the day. Quinton came through my mind link telling me to keep my hands off his mate, and I couldn't help but chirp the s**t out of him and smile at how crazy he already was over her.

I wasn't sure exactly what to do, should I throw the fight? This was an Alpha so I wanted to fight my best but she was also my future Luna or second Alpha? I really wasn't sure what her title was going to be but she was my best friends mate. What exactly was the protocol here? 

We started our match and I immediately saw that I wasn't going to have to throw the fight or worry about protocol at all. f**k she was strong and skilled, I found myself putting everything into it and still couldn't seem to get the upper hand. 

We had been fighting for a few minutes and I could feel the crowd around us gathering. Some people were cheering for me but Kenzie definitely got the girl vote and a decent number of the guys joined in, as they watched her with awe.

 Then her feet somehow got a lock on mine and she took me down, landing on top of me and before I knew it, I was pinned. There was no way that I could toss her tiny yet freakishingly strong self off of me.

Jesus, she just beat me. I was stunned and as she jumped up and reached down to offer me a hand, I couldn't even be upset. I was more in awe of the woman that was going to be my Lun...leader than upset. I 

took her hand and she quietly said "thank you for that fight! I haven't had a challenge like that in a long time." I felt Quinton enter the gym and growl in my mind ordering me to get my hands off his mate. I laughed and shocked her and everyone else by giving her a hug and asking "rematch tomorrow?"

(Kenzie's POV)

I wasn't exactly sure what to expect as I finally took Jake down but it wasn't him giving me a hug. I was gaining new respect for the Silver Lightning Pack as the day went on, although really after the Ashley/Quinton debacle this morning, my opinion really couldn't have gotten lower. Jake however, handled losing better than some of my male pack members do when I take them down. 

The air in the gym suddenly changed a little and I somehow knew that Quinton had walked in. Trainer McFee sent everyone off to shower but asked Quinton and I to come over for a minute. 

We both walked over to him. "Alright guys based on what I just saw, I'm going to be pairing you guys up for the coming days to give you both a challenge." He said it as he rushed away and out of the gym, leaving Quinton and I alone. 

Quinton's face seemed to freeze and he looked super worried, I on the other hand, felt like I couldn't breathe. How was I going to be so close to this Alpha God. "I'm not going to go easy on you tomorrow" he said in his deep gravelly voice. How could his voice even turn me on? As I walked back to the changeroom, I tossed out "I wouldn't expect you too." 

Quinton put a hand on my shoulder and said "Kenzie, wait..." His hand was shooting sparks up my arm and having him so close was making my heart race. How in the hell was I going to keep my hands off him?? He kind of reeled back, making me think he felt the sparks too and before I knew it he was leaning down into my neck and breathing in deep. 

I had backed up so far that my back was against the wall and I was looking out at the big, empty gym. His forest green eyes met mine and I couldn't help but envy his eyelashes. Why do guys get to have the thickest, longest eyelashes?? 

His pupils dilated and then his lips were on mine. The kiss went from 0 to 100 within seconds. With him lifting me up to better reach his mouth, and my legs wrapping around his waist. 

My hands were buried in his hair and his tongue was stroking mine. As he pushed my back into the wall, my heart was legit beating out of my chest, holy Moon Goddess, his lips were addictive. 

 A door slammed across the gym and we broke apart, breathing heavy and both looking shell shocked.

I slowly detangled my legs from around him and hopped down. I licked my lips, still tasting him. How did he taste so minty? 

Flustered at how intensely he impacted me I floundered for words, "Ummmmm..." I managed to get out, "I'm really not interested in being one of your play things, so thank you for that but no thanks!". 

I felt my wolf and inner femme fatale whimper as I pushed through the changeroom doors and escaped from him and whatever intoxicating spell he had put on me.
