I begin my battle with Alpha Eric. He’s good. I’m impressed that Lily beat him. He’s fast, a smart fighter and he’s strong. “I can see you have been training Lily. She has many of the same moves that you are using. I might actually be able to defeat you, Guardian.”
“Doubtful.” I say and just as I’m about to jump in again, I hear Andra snarl. I whip my head around and see that Andra has Alpha Jerome on the ground by the throat.
“Andra!” Anders says, moving quickly to her side.
Something happened and Anders missed it. It must have been subtle but significant if Andra forced a shift and is threatening to rip this Alpha’s throat out.
I walk over to her, crouching down at her eye level. “Andra. You can’t kill an Alpha during a sparring match. Not unless he did something unforgiveable. Give Lily back control and let her tell us what happened.”
Andra snarls once more, pressing her teeth against his throat, making a point to Alpha Jerome that she could easily kill him before she shifts. I immediately pull my shirt off, yanking it over her head before every Alpha here stares at her naked body. When she stands, her chest is heaving and she’s glaring at Alpha Jerome.
She reaches down and pulls a small needle from her thigh. “I’m immune to wolfsbane, you piece of shit.”
Donovan snarls, coming forward. I take the needle and smell it. I can smell the wolfsbane. Alpha Eric comes up beside me. “May 1?”
I give him the needle and he also smells it before turning to Alpha Jerome. “What is the meaning of this?”
Anders comes over, taking the needle and sniffing it before passing it to Patrick.
“Oh please. Don’t pretend you aren’t planning to do whatever it takes to get this Guardian to your pack. We’ve all seen how you’ve been charming her. I may not have youth on my side, but I have other ways to get her to my pack.” Alpha Jerome says.

Patrick snarls. “You have attacked a member of my pack without justification. Get off my pack lands immediately or I will declare war on you and your pack. You and your pack members are no longer welcome in Canyon Ridge.”
I watch as Alpha Jerome’s Beta, Emerson, comes over to help his Alpha up. Jerome slaps his hand away before getting up. “Are you sure you want to make an enemy out of me?” He asks Patrick.
I step forward. “You heard my Alpha. Leave. Before I make you leave.”
He turns and begins walking away. “You will regret this.” Alpha Jerome says as he leaves.
I watch Patrick mind link and several warriors, including Calvin follow behind Alpha Jerome and his Beta to ensure they and their warriors leave our pack lands.
“Anyone else want to try to take my underage Guardian from my pack against her will?” It’s Zakai that snarls the question to every other Alpha on the training field. He looks directly at Alpha Benjamin, who looks away. Hopefully he’s rethinking whatever he was planning.
“Anyone who tries to take a Guardian from my pack against their will, will be considered an enemy of my pack.”
He makes eye contact with every Alpha, before ending the sparring session.
Not only was Alpha Jerome taking every opportunity to put his hands in inappropriate places while we sparred, but when he realized he couldn’t take me, or maybe because he realized he was running out of time, he injected me with wolfsbane.
I’m thankful that I’m immune. If I wasn’t, I would have ended up in the pack hospital and of all the places in our pack, that would probably have been the easiest to kidnap me from.
As I turn to walk inside, Alpha Eric falls into step beside me. “Are you alright?” He asks and there is no flirtation in his voice. He is genuinely concerned.
“Yes, thank you. I’ll just have a bruise for a couple of hours.”
“So, you really are immune to wolfbane?”
I look at him. “I am.”
He turns to look at Clint who is hovering on my other side. “What about you, Guardian Clint? Are you immune to wolfsbane?”
“No. Just Lily.”
Alpha Eric looks impressed as he looks back at me. “Why do you think you are immune?”
“I have no idea. But I’m thankful that I am, and that it wasn’t common knowledge until now, otherwise, he might have tried to use silver.”
Both Alpha Eric and Clint growl at that. “No Alpha worth the title would stoop to such a level. If you can’t win a she-wolf, Guardian or no, on your own merits, then you don’t deserve her.” Alpha Eric says.
As we reach the packhouse, he turns to me. “I do hope to see you later, and perhaps you’ll save me a dance?”
I can’t help but smile at him. I do like Alpha Eric. “Of course.” I say, and I feel Clint tense next to me. It doesn’t go unnoticed by Alpha Eric, but he chooses to ignore it.
“If you’ll excuse me, I need to speak to your Alpha. I want to make sure that he takes Alpha Jerome’s threat seriously. He’s a ruthless Alpha and will want revenge for today.”
He bows over my hand again, kissing it and giving me another smoldering look. “Until later, Lily. Clint.” He nods his head at Clint before walking off.
As we start to walk upstairs, Clint leans into me. “Lily, I swear if you try to go off with that Alpha tonight, I might kill him.”
We get to o our room, and I turn and wrap my arms around him. “And where would I go with him, Clint? My room is here, with you. I share a bed, with you. I have no intention of going anywhere with any of these
Alphas. I like Alpha Eric and he proved today to be an honorable Alpha. I agreed to one dance, not a night of illicit passion.”
He wraps his arms around me. “If you want illicit passion, all you have to do is ask, Lily bud.”
I nip his bottom lip. “You mentioned wanting to leave a mark on my neck last night. Would you feel better if I let you leave one before Anders’ party tonight?”
He pulls back, looking at me, seeing if I’m serious. It felt over-the-top last night, but after what happened with Alpha Jerome, I don’t think it’s a bad idea to have a hickey on my mate mark from Clint. I won’t smell like him, but he’d be staking his claim and I might have some reprieve from the pressuring Alphas.
“You’d let me leave a mark on you?”
I turn my head, exposing my neck to him.
He opens the door to our room and walks me inside, closing the door behind me and pushing me against the wall. He grabs my thighs pulling them up and wrapping them around his waist. He kisses me passionately before pulling back, growling low and deep. “You smell like those Alphas.” He says before walking me into the bathroom.
I continue kissing his neck while he turns on the shower and sits me on the sink, pulling his shirt over my head. Then he strips down before running his hands over my thighs, to my hips then up my sides, letting his thumbs brush against my nipples. They immediately harden at his touch, and I suck in a breath at the pleasure of his touch.
I let my head fall back and his mouth goes to my neck, licking and sucking where he wants to leave his mark. I begin moaning and he wraps my legs around him again, walking me into the shower. He pushes me against the cold tile of the shower wall, and I can feel his hard length pressing between my thighs.
I feel his canines slide over my mate mark and my body clenches in pleasure. “Someday soon, I’ll sink my teeth into this pretty little neck so all the world will know you are mine, Lily bud.” His voice is deep. and I know that Donovan is forward.
