"You will face many defeats in life, but never let yourself be defeated." -Maya Angelou

I didn't want to push back Grace's training session. She seemed a little disappointed when I told her.I had push it back due to my father. I felt so much anger towards him. I still showed him respect.If he wasn't my father I would've taught him a lesson. Grace is a very calculated and strong fighter now. I was proud of her for never giving up. No matter how hard I pushed her or told her to do something different she never stopped. I guess that shows just how resilient she is. Life had not seemed kind to her. She still chooses to smile. I knew life was not easy at school or home for her. I didn't know the exact things that happened to her at home. Did her sister treat her worse? How did her parents treated her? She was still a mystery to me. I came back to reality to realize I had been sitting on the side of the road. I started my car and drove to the packhouse to meet my dad in his office. I headed to his office before i got there I saw Gio. "Hey man" I said to him. "Hey! guess who might have a date with Grace" He said. I couldn't comprehend yet show what I was feeling in this very moment. "Cool man" I said and quickly walked into my dad's office. "Hey son, come on in" he said. I sat down across from him. We stared at each other for what seemed like 5 mins. He slid a paper to me. I looked down to see a contract. It showed the date I would be handed the pack. Looks like the day after the alpha ceremony . I read through the contract and signed. He smiled and hugged me. "Dad, May I go now?" I asked. He nodded his head and I walked out. I quickly went to my room and finished my class work from earlier. I felt Ace wanting to get out and run. "Hold on .we will go after I grab a snack" I said. He huffed and turned his back to me. He can be a real pain. I went to the kitchen and grabbed a banana. I quickly ate it and sipped water. I was glad we had our own house attached to the packhouse. I personally wanted one a mile or two from the packhouse. I walked to the back into the woods and shifted. Ace howled happily and ran. After a hour of running , we decided to go to the river. I'm glad I decided to leave clothes in the hole in one of the trees. I changed and waited for Grace. "Hey Mutt" someone said. I turned to see a rogue. I didn't give him much time before I snapped his neck. There's a gap or something in the border patrol. I linked my dad and told him what happened. He said it would be handled. "Hey! you didn't show me how to do that" Grace said. I turned to see her with the sassy hip pose. "Do you think you'll kill someone if you needed to?" I asked. "Absolutely! Death comes to us eventually some sooner than others" Grace said. I gave her a understanding smile. We started practically the best way to snap necks quickly. I was impressed with her. Suddenly I smelt rogues. "Luca, watch out !" She said. She jumped over me and pounced on the rogue. She can only fight human form for now.I started fighting the others. In total it was about 5 of them. I quickly glanced at Grace and saw the rogue on top of her. Her eyes was closed as she laid there. I couldn't tell who's blood was on her. Oh my goodness! please be alive. I kept fighting. I couldn't get to her without being attacked.
