Shanna POV
I wake up to Gemma busting into my room. “ Wakie wakie let’s go see some man candy!” Gemma sings out.
Jumping on my bed making me bury my head into the pillow. Dam this girl and her man candies! I was having the best sleep I have had in awhile. Dang what time is it did I miss training? s**t! I shoot up not realizing Gemma’s face was right next to mine head butting her straight in the nose.
“s**t Shanna! Save your craziness for training. f**k that hurt!” Gemma screeches.
“s**t I am so sorry Gemma. I didn’t realize you were so close.” I laugh out. Looking at her pissed off face.
Lila is rolling around in my head bark laughing like if she found Gemma’s bruised nose the funniest thing.
“What time is it anyways?” I yawn out. As I hop out of bed heading to the bathroom to brush my teeth.
Gemma walks in behind me replying “It is 5:30am. I know you wanted to head to the training gym by six. I couldn’t let you go to the pack gym by yourself. Who would be your buffer for all those hot, sweaty, sexy single men?”
Before I could answer Gemma replies “No worries Shanna! I will happily sacrifice my moral compass to make sure none pass over that threshold.” Waggling her eyebrows.
Lord save me from my best friend. I laugh to myself. After brushing my teeth I put up my long blonde hair into a high ponytail and head to the closet to slip on my gym clothes. Knowing today will be a long day.
We have the barbecue this afternoon. Which should be fun with the exception of Amy being there. I know something is off about her. She is more attached to Scott then he realizes. I know for a fact that on her side of their relationship it is not over. I am not sure what they had going on; but is seems to have made her think they were something more. This is why I don’t have real relationships with men. Sure a date or two but I never have gotten serious with anyone.
The more I think about this whole relationship with Scott and what he told me last night is sending my head spinning. I have so many mixed feelings about our situation.
Do I take a chance on mine and Scott’s relationship or just keep him at arms length. I will see how the barbecue goes. I do need to let walls down but I also don’t want to go through pain of losing someone.
“You think to much. That’s why we will never see any action other then little Johnny who’s batteries are already low from you using it to much! He can hardly vibrate now!!” Lila barks.
“That’s not true Lila! We still have big Dave and he works just fine. So stop teasing me about little Johnny. We have been traveling a lot and he is easy to pack.” I huff out.
Okay so has my s*x life been one of passion? Well no unless you count a night with big Dave or little Johnny. I would say not. I could qualify as a nun. Which is making my horny wolf lash out about our boring life style.
After readying my self for the gym Gemma and I head down stairs. Walking through the main area I see my beta Vince and Luke standing by the front door to the pack house.
“Morning Alpha. Did you sleep well?” Vince says well holding open the door.
“I did actually! I haven’t slept that well in a long time and Vince you know you can call me by my name. I haven’t taken my father position yet.” I give a side smile.
Thinking to myself after Vince mentioned it. I had a great night sleep. Without a creepy stranger popping up into dreams.
Vince is like a another father to me. He has been with my family through it all. I will miss him when he steps down and hands over his beta position to Luke.
“I know but soon you will be. So might as well get used to it.” Vince laughs out.
Making our way to the training building that Scott showed me on my first visit to his pack. I was quick to make my way to the girls locker room. Gemma right behind me.
“Did you see all those hotties out there?! It is like a man buffet!” Gemma smacks my arm giving me that I am hungry look.
“For once we agree! There are some yummy looking snacks I wouldn’t mind taking a bite out of.” Lila chirps
“O gosh will you stop with all this horny talk. I have enough to deal with Lila chirping it in my head. Then for you to follow her behavior.” I say laughing. As I roll my eyes at my now horny best friend.
It is not uncommon for wolves to sleep around. Specially with it being so rare finding your true mate. The chances have gotten better now that our pack allows other packs to come to moonlight mating ceremony. It has made our pack thrive with happily new found mates.
“Hey I am stating facts; but I get it you have Scott to fulfill that need. I wouldn’t be looking either if I had that hot piece of specimen after me either.” Gemma gives me a pointed look.
“O stop it. You know I haven’t done s**t with him. We are still figuring things out. Let’s get moving before we run late.” I say taking off my sweater leaving me in my dark maroon sport bar and matching work out leggings.
We head out to the main training area where we can see all the warriors training. As we walk up I can see heated eyes traveling over mine and Gemma’s way. Vince who senses this sends a warning growl. Luke also not liking the wondering eyes sends warning glares to back off. Before I could say anything about it I hear an even louder growl that sends chills down my back. Turning behind me I see Scott walking up looking pissed.
Scott POV
I woke up early to make sure to get training started. Waiting for Shanna to arrive at the training gym I do some sparring with Chance my beta.
“So how did last night go when you walked Shanna back?” Chance asks. Giving me a did you get lucky look.
“It didn’t go as I though it would that’s for sure.” I huff out.
Thinking to myself it went totally opposite of how I wanted it to. I didn’t expect her to sleep with me or anything. I just wasn’t expecting her to straight up refuse to acknowledge our connection. I wanted her and always have. I know I have a past; but I always knew Shanna was my future. Or I planned winning her over at least.
“What happened? Please don’t tell me she hates you now because of that whole Amy thing yesterday?” Chance replies.
“Well I am sure Amy does have something to do with Shanna feeling unsure. She also mentioned true mates. Which we both know if I land up not being her true mate it will probably put me out of the running. Unless I can show her how much I love her. I hoped us spending time together will build that.” I breath out.
“Give it time Scott. Who knows maybe you guys are mates. You won’t know until the moonlight ceremony. If it does go to s**t then just fight for her. Show her you choose to love her.” Chances says. As he catches me off guard punching me in the ribs. Well s**t that one f*****g hurt.
Before I could reply I hear a growl coming from behind me. I look around to see what’s going on. I see Shanna and her friends walking toward the main sparring ring. Seeing all my unmated warriors staring at what’s mine sent me boiling over. Peter feeling pure rage that our men could even think of looking at what is ours. A loud and power growl leaves my chest vibrating through the building. My men feeling my alpha aura coming out making them bare their necks in submission.
Walking toward Shanna I feel a since of possessiveness over her. Seeing her long blonde hair tied up in a high pony tail. Goddess I want to wrap her hair around my fist well I sink deep into her heat. Tugging hard well pulling a sweet moan from those plump lips. Gosh I need to snap out of it.
Racking my eyes down to her bare neck on to her breast’s. Okay this was not a good idea. I am growing hard just seeing her in that maroon tight workout gear. All I want to do right now is take her to my room and ravish that prefect body. Making her mine.
“Well good morning Alpha Scott.” Shanna sweet voice rings through my thoughts.
“Shanna you know I hate it when you call me that. Just Scott is fine. We are equals after all.” I reply.
Stepping into her space I wrap my arms around her waist and place a soft kiss to her cheek. Pulling away I see a cute tint of pink flushing her skin.
“Would you like to spar with me?” I breath into her ear.
“Ahhhh sure. You can’t hold back though. I want to make sure I am in top shape for the warrior tournament.” She replies.
“O I won’t go easy on you beautiful. If anything I might be to hard for you.” Feeling her breath hitch as I whisper into her neck.
Peter my wolf is howling with happiness being this close to Shanna and Lila. I move forward to hold out my hand so we can hit the main sparring ring. I can’t wait to place my body next to hers. This afternoon can’t come soon enough. I can show her off to my entire pack. We may not be official yet; but I want everyone one to know I have my eyes set on her. Plus I hope David gets word that Shanna is here with me. To keep his hands to himself. Soon the warrior tournament will be here and I want to make it clear he has no chance. Shanna is mine and I will make sure he knows it.
