Running from my mates book 3 of the werebear series

Chapter 12 talk

Casey’s P.O.V

  I knocked on the door and entered Star’s office, taking a seat in front of her marble desk. I looked around at everything that was in here, especially the books. They were so old that you had to carefully flip the pages because if you didn’t then they would crumble and turn to dust. There were a few old scrolls as well but you had to carefully unwrap them. She had the windows open, letting in a nice cool breeze. I know this used to be the old Alpha’s office and when he died Star kept everything as it was for a time, everything except the furniture which had to be changed. This office was a perfect example of new and fresh meets vintage. Everything in this room held sentimental value to Star, whether it be the old books and vases or the clean marble desk. Everything in this office held some meaning to Star. It was nice that she had reminders of the people she loved, I didn’t have anything of my parents and I never loved my first mate Kevin.

  “So Casey, is everything okay? How are you and Kirk doing?” Star asked and I nodded.

  “Yeah, everything between us is going good, but there is something I want to talk to you about. I want to become a fighter or a warrior. I don’t want to be the girl that everyone has to protect and save all the time. I know a few moves and I know how to fight, but I want to be stronger, I want to learn more.” I replied as Star was looking back at her computer. She typed a few things up and then turned to get something that she was printing out. She turned back around with a smile on her face, looking at the paperwork in her hand.

  “Casey, I got you in the program to train to become a warrior. You will train everyday at seven every morning and you will have eight weeks of training. When your training is done you will have a challenge and a test. If you pass the challenge and the test then you will become a warrior. If you ever change your mind and want to learn something else then just let me know. There are many different titles here as you know, guard, fighter, warrior, captain of training, captain of warriors and captain of fighters. Your training starts tomorrow morning, so I’ll let Devon know you will be there.” Star said, smiling at me and I nodded, happy that she had accepted me and what I wanted to do.

  “Thank you so much, Luna. oh and please don’t tell Kirk. I have told him that I want to train and he agreed to train me for a week, but I want to surprise him by doing more. I don’t want him to stop me, I want to do better.” I said and she nodded.

  “I understand, Casey. Just do your best and I’m sure he will be rooting for you, I know I am. Go get your rest because tomorrow is going to be a long day, much longer than when you worked at the hospital.” Star said, handing me the paperwork. I nodded and left her office after thanking her once again, then headed upstairs.

  Star’s P.O.V

  I was proud of Casey and how she wanted to improve herself, how she wanted to be able to defend herself. I was worried about Casey, thinking she was going to speak about her other mate, so I opened the link up with Kirk. he had every right to know about him and the danger he posed to not only Casey, but also our pack and their relationship. 

  “Kirk, did you hear all that?” I asked, mind-linking him after Casey had left.

  “Yes, I did Luna, thank you for letting me listen in.” Kirk replied, mind-linking me back.

  “I know you want to help her and protect her, but let her do this, Kirk. She thinks she needs to prove herself, not only to you and everyone else, but also to prove to herself. Everything will be fine.” I said, hoping he would let her do this.

  “Yes, Luna. I understand.” Kirk replied and I ended the link.

  Unknown’s P.O.V

  After I got out of the lake I was more determined than ever to see my mate and it felt like the more I couldn’t see her, the more I wanted her. I wanted her with me more and more, even though I had only seen her less than a handful of times. I kept hoping she would smell my scent or sense me and then she would come to me, but it never happened. I’ll just have to go back to my so-called pack and see what this Alpha Ellis might say. I started to think of everything about his pack and it made me wonder if I could take over his pack. s**t, that's a good idea. I would have it all once I got that pack and then I could also get a few of them to go and get my mate, bringing her back to me. 

  “AHAHA!! I GOT IT!!!” I shouted, as I started running back to my pack. My plan was setting in motion and nothing could stop me now.
