The Deadly Alpha novel Chapter 12

To say I was tired would be the understatement of a century; I was beyond fucked up, my legs were filled with scratches, my hair saggy with sweat and my wolf was beaten by the talented trainer.

"You should focus more on your hind legs and do more practice to enhance your wolf abilities as well as yours." The green fields stretched along the pack territory and the other dead wolves field was on the border of the pack, the weather was humid and I couldn't wait to take a shower.

We can take a shower with our mate and let him mark us. Lace heatedly suggested and I let that thought cross my mind for a second. Our mate came to us, bare-chested and jeans hung low on his hips. He was mouth watering; sweat glistened under the sun on his chest, making him bronze in color and his sculpted features grinned at me in a warm glow of the light.

He caught us checking him out as he raised his eyes into mine in amusement, I fidgeted when he came.

"Had a good practice?" He asked and I groaned out a yes, my muscles were aching and I never had to train before so it took a whole lot of time to get used to that.

He chuckled as he hugged me and his sweat meshed on my body, I let out a gasp in disgust as I shoved him back playfully and he was let back laughing, my shirt was all in his sweat.

"When will the battle start?" I opened an even serious topic and his face changed from playful to strict mode.

"At seven pm, it's almost three pm and we have a lot more training to do so clean yourself up and join the other women into the safe house." He instructed and I grew uneasy, the thought that I was going to defy his rules again and his reaction to that made me hesitant.

We have to protect our mate. Lace reasoned and I agreed, he could be angrier but we were willing to take the risk for that. We had to stop it before more got killed.

I went into the cool aired mansion and hurried to my room to take a long shower in order to soothe my tight muscles.

I leaned my head on the bathroom tiles as the hot water calmed my nerves down. I was going to break the ultimate rule and I had to feel strong-willed about it.

I finished my needed shower and wrapped the towel around my wet body, padding into my room, I stopped in my tracks at the sight on my bed.

"I'll have to mark you after the war." He whispered in my ear and I was silent, I had no reaction. All I knew was I had to break the war off.

I kissed his cheek and told him to be careful, I would find the jealous girls that stood beside us hilarious as they shoot daggers at me but I was too focused on my mate.

"I promise I won't die." He smirked as he left a small kiss on my lips and embraced me, I grew teary-eyed against his chest for what was I about to do.

He might not die but I might. The thought of him having to lose his second chance mate made me feel very sad but I had to, I couldn't stand fights anymore after what happened to my family.

With one final kiss on his jaw, he stormed out to get ready and I sat down while the women inside the wooden room murmured in fear for their husbands and the Alpha's sister joined me to comfort my never-ending nervousness.
