TASHA POV
Things have been going alright since I've been here, no one has locked me up, or tried to hurt me, all they've been trying to do is help me, my body was sore but now it's a small ache. I know I'm starting to fall for River, but how do I tell him? I've only been here for a week now, so how is that even possible, someone falling for that person so early, he's kind to me, always trying to help me, I even had him in the tub with me last night, it made me wonder how that thing fit inside of me. i want to try but im scared, i've never done anything with anyone so how can i go about this, enough with the thinking i needed to get up and start the day, i hurried to get dressed in shorts with a pull over blue shirt, my hair in a ponytail, slipped on my shoes, i was running downstairs when River caught up to me,
“Are you in a hurry to get outside? remember your training with the new recruits today, and i will be the trainer, some of the warriors will be with us as well, so be prepared okay, i know you been training with mom, but i'm a little harder on them, come on let's get outside and start the morning, by the way, your going to need to eat something in the mornings before training, even if its toast or an apple or something, it will help your strength during the day okay,” i nodded and had to add mental note in my head to eat something every morning before training, i hope he doesn't take it easy on me, his mother wasn’t i don’t want him to do that just because we are mates. we walked outside, but before we got to the training ground he kissed me and told me
“Please do not take anything i do personal, i'm not easy on anyone, we want our warriors well trained, so if i'm hard on you is because i want you strong and able to fight,” he kissed me again then we headed toward the training ground,
SHELLY POV
I didn’t know how long this was going to take, i know she said in two weeks, but damn its been a whole week, then i have to wait for them to mate and then after the cermony, this is stupid, but i knew i needed to wait, i hated waiting, but it is what it is, For right now i have to make nice with her, pertend to be her friend so River would think ive given up on ever having him, if i can make them think ive given up, that would be perfect, walking outside, i saw them talking then he leaned down kissing her, that f*****g b***h i swear i’ll kill her,
‘If you remember Shelly, you have a mate out there he will be here at the ceremony,” my wolf had said,
“Do you think i care, i dont give a shift, he's probably weak,”
“thats not what the witch said, she said he's powerful and from another pack.”
“Yeah we will see about that, until then, River is mine,” i walked out where the new recruits were, i was asked to stand in line with some of the other warriors, to see how the new recruits were doing, I knew River was going to be training so i jumped at the chance to be one of the warriors, walking over there i stood in line right beside none other than Tasha, i was going to start talking to her, but then River started speaking,
“Alright new recruits, i want you to listen and listen good, i know some of you will stay and some of you will not make it, the ones that doesnt make it you have next month, so make sure this is really what you want to do, there's always guards and runners, but runners also fight and so do guards, so think really hard, alright everyone i want you to line up, we are going to do sixty laps today, so let's get to it, line up, and get to running those who fall get back up and start running again, those who know that can make it help them out. alright i want to see some legs moving NOW!!” damn only sixty laps, i'm used to running 8o or 90 laps, but sixty it is, this is going to be easy, i was running in front of Tasha, i wanted to see if she can make this sixy lap run, so i ran beside her, i took this chance to speak with her,
“Let me know if you are about to trip or fall, ill help you run the rest of the laps okay,” she gave me a side glance, i could tell that she was thinking about what i was up to she didn’t say anything at all, she ran those sixty laps like a pro, like shes been training all along, she did have muscle in her legs and arms, i could see them, when we where done with the laps, i took my water bottle drinking some water, then i handed it to Tasha,, she put on a smile for me,
“No thanks, i have my own, but thank you so much for offering,” nodding i watched her drink her water, placing the bottle down beside the bench, it took all i had not to tamper with it, the witch did say if i did anything to her before the ceremony, everything i do will fail, this really sucks, we stood back in line, River walked over to the group
“Alright guys, i want to see sixy situps, push ups, pull ups, then i want to see thirty leg lifts and squats, come on guys, i want to see you sweat, if your not sweating you're going to have more to do, so lets get to it, i for one hate to sweat, but i don't feel like doing anything extra, so i did everything the trainer said, i even started to sweat, ew i hate it, i am going to need a very hot shower after this, a few hours later most of the new recruits had left, there were still ten new recruits left, we said nothing, we knew we would see them next month trying again, the ten that stayed were ready to do this,
‘Alright guys i want the warriors to team up with one new recruit, that way you can show them what they are doing wrong, and i can come and help, so let's get to it,” i was going to team up with Tasha, i walked over to her and smiled, but River quickly told me to go to this other girl name Thon. i looked over at this girl she was a little on the big side but that's a good thing,the bigger they are the stronger they are, but not with me, i've knocked the biggest ones down, so why not this could be fun, looking over at Tasha, she was teamed up with Peggy, she was one of the tough ones, i liked her, so here we go, training the new recruits, i always have to show them whos the strongest, adn its always me,
