“Lucky for you, I saw the challenger boards for tomorrow before we came over here. My Beta fights your Beta in the first round. May the best man win.”
“Oh, he will, and it will be my Beta that wins.” Santiago says.
“Good luck with that, you’re going to need it.”
I watch a moment as they walk away before turning to Grace. “Let’s go, I want to make sure we eat before we head back to the battles this afternoon. Maddison is still in the running.”
“You know Carlos can fight his own battles, right?” Grace says.
“Yeah, but that guy had it coming. Angel and Cara didn’t hit him, so someone needed to.”
We walk into the dining area and get some food. Just as we’re about to sit down, Carlos comes jogging up.
“Alpha, did you punch my brother’s Beta?”
“Sure did.” I say, taking a bite of food, completely unphased.
“May I ask why?”
I look at him. “You mean besides the obvious? He was harassing Sarah and Aolis, threatening them and being a general douchebag. Angel and Cara put him in his place, but I thought her deserved a broken nose, so I gave him one. I might have mentioned that you sent your regards.”
Carlos sits, shaking his head. Then begins shaking with laughter. “I wish I had been there.”
“You know you are scheduled to take him on in round one tomorrow, right?” I tell him.
His head pops up, a slow smile spreading across his face. “Oh yeah?”
“I expect you to mop the floor with him, Carlos.” Grace tells him.
“I’d consider it a pleasure, Luna.” plates of food, one for her and one for Carlos

We chat some more before heading back to the battles. Maddison is doing great. I knew she would, but I can see Trevor’s influence on her. She was good before, but he is making her a better warrior.
At the end of the battles, Maddison has come in third. Our entire pack cheered for her. Liam’s Lead Warrior came in second and Trevor came in first. That didn’t surprise me, the guy loves training against the Guardians and does every chance he gets.
At the end of the day, the day two totals are added to day one and the overall rankings flash up on the leader board:
1st Place: Shadow Falls Pack 280 points
2nd Place: Canyon Ridge Pack 240 points
3rd Place: Safe Haven Pack 225 points
Rik’s pack has made a huge jump. I’m surprised that even though we didn’t battle today, we’re still in the top three.
Grace had walked over to congratulate Maddison and I was talking to some of the other warriors. When I turned, I see she’s no longer with Maddison. I begin looking around, searching for her.
I know that Grace can handle herself, but after yesterday and the Alphas all looking like they wanted to steal our mates, Liam, Rik and I have been more on edge.
“She’s over there, talking to that Alpha.” Rik says, having seen me looking for her. Without saying it out loud, we’ve all been looking out for each other’s mates and pack members.
When I follow his line of sight, my blood runs cold. She’s talking to her father. I immediately start walking in that direction. The look on his face is almost smug.
When I get close enough, I hear Grace. “You don’t know who I am, do you?”
“Oh honey,” he says condescendingly, “everyone here knows you’re a Guardian. I know exactly who you are.”
I step up behind Grace. “Do you now? You think you know my mate?” I ask, placing my arm. around her waist, gently embracing her so she knows she has my support. Edgar’s mate and son are standing a couple steps behind him, watching the interaction.
He looks me up and down, apparently not impressed by what he sees, which is hilarious because I could take this guy out with one punch. He’s well past his prime.
“I was just explaining to your mate, that while I am flattered by her attention the last couple of days, I am a happily mated man.” He turns back to Grace. “I’m sorry if you are not happy, my dear, but I can always offer you a place in my pack. We’d be happy to host a Guardian.”
I snort at the irony, but Grace actually laughs in his face. “Is that so?”
He frowns like she’s lost her mind. “Yes. I would have happy to have you as my Guardian, I just couldn’t take you as my mate. You understand, of course.”
“Yes. I understand. I understand perfectly well that you have no idea who I am. Father.”

Yikes! Looks like the confrontation is coming!
Updates daily.
The audacity of this man. This man that I once respected, that I looked up to like he was the answer to every question I ever had. Now, I see him for what he really is. A washed up, pathetic excuse for an Alpha.
The arrogance of him thinking that I was staring at him because I want him, it’s unfathomable, not to mention disgusting.
I watch his face shut down after I call him father.
“Of course, I was what, twelve, when you banished me? Do you remember me now?
“That’s not possible.”
“Why, dad?” I say the term sarcastically. “Because you couldn’t be patient enough to wait and see if I got my wolf? You couldn’t be a good enough father to love me, even if I had never gotten a wolf? Well, surprise, here I am. It’s me, Grace. You banished your daughter, a future Guardian. from your pack. Is this starting to ring any bells for you?”
“How dare you?” He snarls, his hand coming up to strike me.
