He huffs a laugh. “Yeah, that would probably be the best. It will help me sleep too, or at least settle down enough to rest. I don’t think my wolf will let me sleep until we get her back.” He rubs his eyes. “How long have you known? I ask and I don’t have to elaborate.

“Eight years. Her coven is near my home. I caught her scent the day she turned 18. She was out in the woods between her home and mine doing some kind of spell. They come of age at 18 too and get their full strength of magic, although from what I have learned she was like you and showed signs of power earlier than anyone else on record.” He looks over at me.

“What do you mean like me?” We walk out the back door and head to the small clearing just inside the treeline behind our house.

“Alpha Reggie and Alpha Lucas have kept a close eye on you your whole life from what I understand. Especially after what happened to your mom during your birth. Once Alpha Reggie put the pieces together and discovered your lineage, they both made a point to keep track of you. I only learned about all of this recently and clearly I don’t know your whole story since I still don’t understand your so-called bonus

features. Even I noticed your abilities at trials and started asking questions.”

“The problem with all of that, was that I was kept in the dark until about a year ago. Everyone is always trying to protect me because am a female or because of my size.,,”

“Okay, let me stop you right there. It’s a hard instinct to shut down when the initial perception of you is this tiny quiet girl who apparently lets people beat her up for the fun of it. You have to forgive natural protective instincts.”

I see red as mytemper flares and I run at him. I go to sweep his legs and miss but land a punch to the center of his thigh knocking him down for a minute.

“It’s not the strangers’ assumptions that make me angry. I get that, Its the people who know me, train with me everyday and still treat me like porcelain or like I’m incompetent that set me off.” Sweep, punch and a miss.

“Maybe, like me with Gentry, they cant stand to see you in any kind of harm’s way, no matter how strong you are, how strong they know you are.” He moves to grab for me, but I tuck and roll under his legs. “And you can’t really say you don’t use your size to your advantage, even if you don’t realize it.

Like those guys today. Mina is just as beautiful as you and her personality invites people in, but these guys chose to approach you, the small quiet, shy girl. You come off as less intimidating, right up until you beat someone’s ass with your pinky finger.” He laughs as he parries another move.

We go on sparring playfully for a little while until he tries to put me in a headlock and I kick him in the back of the knee, taking us both down. Then all bets are off and we are both going full force, sweating, panting, covered in dirt with manic smiles on our faces. He’s become like another older brother and our competitive natures clash frequently.

“I think thafs enough. Sky needs to eat and actually do the homework that will put her in the teachers pet position. She also needs to check in with the boyfriend.” Osiston pulls our attention and it’s enough for Nickolas to get the upper hand.

“What! I don’t have a boyfriend.” I grunt from my face down position on the ground.

“According to the amount of notifications on your phone, I beg to differ. Mina has been eyeing it for an hour. If you dont want her to respond I suggest you get your butt moving.”
