It did not take long for Damien to score the first point. Matter of fact he scored it as soon as Chase gave the signal to start. I hit the ground before I could blink. “You have to be ready at all times Claire. You never get a signal to start when we are at war” Damien told me as he helped me up. So he wants to play like that huh I thought as i was standing up.
So as I stood up I swept his feet out from under him causing him to hit the ground where I was just at. Casey yelled out “that’s my girl” while Chase and the doctor laughed. I helped Damien up calling a truce for a few seconds. “That actually was great Claire” Damien said smiling at me. “So let’s see what else you got” he said before lunging at me. “MOVE NOW” Sahara yelled in my head. As I moved I
watched Damien face plant back into the ground when he missed me. “Man you move quick” he said
getting back up. Saharra laughed in the back of my mind making me chuckle as well. “Just listen to me
and we may just win this thing” saharra said. “Whatever you say” I told her while grinning to myself.
At some point I noticed that a crowd had gathered to watch the match. They were all cheering me on to finish Damien. “Are you ready to finish this up now” Saharra asked. She was having the time of her life helping me with the match. I had never heard her laugh as much and I do not remember ever laughing as much either in so long. “Yeah I’m getting hungry” I told her. “OK you see that pole right there? We are going to use that. Just trust me and do exactly what I tell you. I am not going to tell you to do something that you cannot do” she explained. I trusted Saharra with everything in me. After all she was the reason i was still alive.
Damien lunged for me again. Saharra yelled for me to use the pole to spring myself behind Damien. I did not question her as I ran up the pole and literally flipped myself behind Damien as he ran into the pole and fell backwards unconscious.
The doctor came running over along with Chase who was cheering for me while laughing at poor Damien. The doctor pulled something put of his pocket and held it up to Damien”s nose. He opened his eyes and looked straight at me “You are definitely an Alpha female” he said smiling while taking an ice pack and putting it on his forehead.
“AND THE WINNER OF THIS SPARRING MATCH GOES TO ALPHA CLAIRE!” Chase declared happily. The crowd went crazy with cheers. “OK I’m starving. Let’s go eat” I told Chase as I helped Damien up. “Is he
ok Doc?” I asked. The doctor nodded. “His pride is hurt, but it will take more tham that to c***k that thick skull.” “Thank you Saharra” I told her as we all walked up to the pack house. “We are a team” she answered still smiling. I thought of the perfect reward for her for after dinner. “Would you like to shift after dinner” I asked her. We had never shifted before even though we could. I always thought it was to risky
of others finding out that she was with me,, but now none of that mattered.. I needed to take care of her like she has taken care if me all of these years.. Saharra got super excited and started yelping happily.
“Can we really Claire” she asked. “I do not see why not. Let me ask Chase real quick.” I told her. I wanted to
give him a warning so safety precautions could go in effect. “Hey Chase, I want to shift after dinner and
let Saharra out. She has never been out and after today she deserves it” I explained. Chase looked at me
grinning. “Claire how much prouder of you are you going to make me today? Of course you can. Matter
of fact , we all should so we can all greet her and welcome her. The warriors will have to shift anyway so
they no she is not a strange wolf if they see her so if you are up for it, we can all celebrate her arrival. Everyone will just think that you just received her considering it is this close to your birthday” he explained as we all walked inside of the pack house. I went straight to the kitchen where Casey stopped me immediately. “No mam. Upstairs to shower now!” she ordered smacking at my hand as I reached for
a fork to take a bite of whatever was covered up like I always do. I looked at Casey like she had lost her mind as she said “You heard me now shew. Go get cleaned up now”. Chase and Damien were doubled over laughing at me as I turned around pouting. “oh come on silly girl. You know how she is about
cleaning up for dinner. Did you really think she was going to give in to you and let you get away with it”
Chase asked as we all climbed the stairs. He was right. Casey was very strict manners and customs.
There was no way she would have let me get away with that. That is what I thought anyway until I opened my door to my room and found a table of appetizers waiting for me and a smiley face picture drawn by Casey in the middle of it. “Oh Chase, Damien, I need the two of you” I called out. They
both came running thinking something was wrong. When they opened my door and saw me with a mouth full of food they nearly passed out in shock. I stuck my tongue out at them as I shoved another mozzarella stick in my mouth while I grabbed some clean clothes. “You are a mess girl and absolutely spoiled rotten!” Damien called out as he fixed him a plate as well as Chase. I closed the door off to the lounge area where the food was so I could go in my bedroom and take a shower. There was another bathroom in my lounge area if Damien wanted to shower while eating and Chase was next door anyway.
I took a quick shower. I was still starving and it felt like I had not eaten a thing even though I had eaten three plates of appetizers before I showered. When I got out, I threw on my sweats, grabbed another plate of wings when I spun around and ran smack into Damien’s chest.
He was in nothing but a pair of swim shorts, and straight out of the shower. He was nothing but muscle and tattoos. I never paid attention to how sexy he was. I looked up and saw his blue eyes staring down at me and I about melted in the floor right there. Saharra was going insane and drooling everywhere “HE IS OUR MATE CLAIRE.”
She yelled out.
