Rise of the Alpha Queen

Combat Training

It's early morning. The two girls are standing on the training grounds before anyone else. Hila fell asleep with Kay on the floor, on the papers she used to help Kay practice writing with. She feels stiff today because of that. Kay looks fine. Looks like she has energy for an entire week, ready for action.

Hila yarn again and try stretching. Groaning again because of her muscle already being sore. Kay sees Drex walking closer with other pack members and girls too. She wants to tear their heads off for being so close to him.

A frown suddenly appears on her face. Hila obviously already knows what is going on. Touching Kay's arm, Hila feels her jealousy. She can't help but laugh, and Kay glares at her. "You're so cute," Hila adds while holding her tummy and laughing.

"Your first time experiencing these feelings. I love this," she goes on, and Kay looks away. Showing her disinterest and embarrassment. "It's called jealousy. Best not to act on it. I know for sure that Drex doesn't like it when his woman is jealous," Hila gives a wink.

Kay frowns again and hates this feeling. "I hate this feeling," Kay lets Hila know, which makes Hila smile. "That's good. You shouldn't like it. It's a bad feeling," Hila comments, and Kay nods to agree with her.

"Good morning Hila and Kay," Drex greets and Kay is trying her best not to blush.

"Good morning Alpha," Hila responds, and Kay gives 'a little smile. "Good morning Drex," Kay greets him. A girl who walked with Drex this morning frowns at her. "He is Alpha Drex," she commands.

Kay's beautiful eyes dart to her. Dominance radiating from her. The girl gulps and bows her head immediately, showing she is beneath Kay. Drex doesn't mind Kay showing her rank in the pack. Everyone should do this eventually. He lets them sort out their differences on their own.

He will step in if they are struggling to settle it or when things get out of hand. Drex's eyes scan over the training grounds. Most warriors are males. Drex looks over to Hila. She also saw this and is looking at him.

Drex nods at her and her eyes go foggy. Kay looks at her, knowing she is mind-linking. She knows that all werewolves' eyes go foggy when they mind linking each other.

She thinks she needs to teach them how to do this without zoning out. Mind linking shouldn't be this much trouble. It should be like talking normally like you are talking in person while walking or doing an activity.

Well, that's how she understands it.

Men did their stretches by the time their females and kids older than 10 showed up. "No," some growl at their mates. This gets Drex's attention.

He looks over at the males trying to get their mates away from the grounds with their pups. "ENOUGH!!" Drex's growl radiates over the training ground. Sending a shiver down each one of their spines. "They need to be trained as well. I can't have a weak pack!" Drex explains and the males don't understand.

"Can't you remember how the attackers won?" He asks, and the previous pup Alpha and his sister show their shock. "Exactly. We can't leave our females and pups defenseless," Hila adds with anger in her voice.

The males all look at each other. They never thought it was necessary for their females and pups to train. "Some of the best warriors are female," Hila added, looking toward Tiffany, who was also present to show her skills in battle.

Tiffany may be bratty and a newly found omega, but she can fight. Ever since she was a pup in training, Tiffany has had the warrior talent. She is one of the strongest female warriors. Tiffany nods towards her, stepping forward. "It's true. We may not be as strong as males, but we are smart and most of us are agile," she explains, and the females with the pups can see that Tiffany is confident in her abilities as a warrior.

"Every wolf will have the training, and every wolf will decide what they want to do. I need this pack to function. I need this pack to be 110% in working order. Every wolf will do what they dream of doing and no one will force them to do what they don't want. I'll give you advice or a job if you are not sure or we will focus on your talent, but no one else will force you. Do I make myself clear?" Drex announces with authority and everyone nods.

"If you want to do what you're good at, you're welcome to do so too. Every pup, ten and older will join the training, and also every female will be required to train just like the males. No one is going to be an exception," Drex adds, to make sure everyone understands what is going to happen from now on before they are all standing in line, the practice fighting moves before sparring with each other.

Kay finds the training to be boring.

Her survival skills were shaped from when she can remember. The combat training isn't working her as it does for the rest. Drex ignored this, sighing from her as he moved through the members, correcting their stances. When it came time for the running part, he saw her face light up at the mention of running. She loves to run even if the other trainees complain about it. She enjoys it, the freedom she has in her wolf form.

It feels natural to her to be in this form which she can stay in forever without needing to change to her human form. She sure was happy when Drex changed the usual routine. At this very moment, she is running ahead of the pack, feeling the breeze through her fur. The crisp winter morning air doesn't bother her. She loves it too.

Looking over the land in front of her, waiting on the others to catch up. Naturally, it would be Drex to arrive first. "Kay, you are way too fast," mind-links her. Kay turns to him and sticks out her tongue. "You're too slow," she comments, making Drex laugh. "I was built for power, not speed," he corrects her and Kay smiles at him. "Oh, I can see that. Those muscles aren't made for this." she jumps around on her feet quickly and gives a wink. Drex laughs at her when she suddenly catches on that she just flirted with him.

He can't help her cute reaction. He wants to see her blushing red face even more. In wolf form, you can't see it, only the emotions in the eyes.

Drex is still laughing as Kay lowers her head in embarrassment, mumbling to herself again. He finds her so cute and can't help but be amazed by her. She can be mature and suddenly be a child. Technically, she is just a pup, according to her age right now.
