Chapter 5

God I’m such a Simp! I rolled my eyes at myself as I closed the truck door.

Amanda was chuckling at me.

It’s not funny! What the fuck are wolves doing on my property? I growled angrily.

One of the wolves, he was black with white paws, charged at me, teeth bared. He was significantly smaller than Dylan, and smaller than me, but he was fast. He wasn’t fast enough though.

I dodged his leap and rolled to the right, watching in amusement as he slammed into the truck door. He shook his head and growled at me, stalking towards me. I bared my fangs at him, daring him to try to strike.

He didn’t get the chance to try before Dylan came charging from around the house. He tackled the black wolf and pinned him under his massive paws.

I clicked into their mind link to listen.

--my mate! Touch her again and you will lose your life! Dylan growled at him.

That’s your mate! The wolf replied, and that’s when I realized she was female.

It also angered me that my mate was touching another female. Amanda was starting to

become more angry by the minute.

So you're mated to a whore! You know she can’t

satisfy you like I can. The she-wolf tried to rub her muzzle across his face, but I growled

catching her attention.

Awww, baby, look! She linked Dylan. The bitch doesn’t want to see you mate with someone better than her!

I interrupted their link, I suggest you stop trying shit, before I rip your throat out and feed it to your pack for breakfast tomorrow morning. She growled at me, and Dylan smirked, which only irritated her more. Or maybe we could do late night wolf burgers. I made a very exaggerated thinking face. I don’t know Dylan, what do you

think?

He looked like he was about to start laughing. She looked like she was ready to kill me.

I gestured to her, Let her up Dylan. His eyes widened. Your clothes are in the driver seat of the truck. Go get dressed. I’ve got her.

She smirked. If she really thinks she can handle me, let her try.

He shook his head and let her up. Have fun getting your ass kicked. For a moment I thought he was talking to me, but he looked at me with a smirk that only angered her even more.

She leapt back up onto all fours and crouched to jump and strike. I stepped back, and shifted back into my tiger. The wolf's eyes widened, and she looked afraid for a moment. But she regained her composure, and repositioned herself to strike.

Okay bitch, let's go! I hissed.

She launched herself first, but I sped forward and slid under her airborne body.

Her body landed on the ground with a skid. She ended up hitting the front porch instead of me. I chuckled as she got back up onto her feet and faced me again.

This time I moved first. She met me halfway. Her teeth were wrapped around my front paw, squeezing down. I felt the bones crunch and howled. With a growl, I snapped out of the pain and drove my teeth into her neck and squeezed. I felt warmth spread through my mouth, and tasted iron. If she moved, she’d die. I had her in a tap or die grip. She released me, and went limp.

I give! I give! She yelled through the link.

I adjusted my grip on her throat and threw her to her pack members.

Get this trailer trash off my property! And if I ever see her come near my mate, or my property, EVER again, I will kill her! I yelled at everyone.

They all bowed their heads and shifted back to their human forms. A few grabbed her and left, carrying her back to the pack.

Dylan had changed by that time and was leaning against the hood of his truck, staring at me with amusement and pride. It wasn’t a long fight, but it showed I could handle myself.

“Well you just took out the pack’s best fighter,” Dylan smiled, reaching out to run his hand through my fur.

I pushed my head into his hand and Amanda couldn’t resist but made us purr again. I swear she was insufferable sometimes.

If that’s your strongest warrior, then you need to do some serious training, because she was pathetic, I linked him.

Dylan was grinning like no other, but then remembered the remainder of the pack was still watching us.

He kneeled down next to me and whispered, “Could you please shift back? I need to do some introductions.”

I nodded and took a step back. Within seconds I was back in human form, still dressed in a sports bra and shorts. I was very bloody though, from the fight that had occurred in the backyard.

He turned and smiled at the pack members that were still there. “Everyone!” He announced. “This is Anna,” He gestured to me. “She is my mate! Should she accept me, she will be your Luna! I expect you all to treat her with respect, or I won’t hesitate in

allowing her to deal with you, how she feels fit! Understood?”

Everyone in the yard bowed their heads, “Yes, Alpha!”

Dylan nodded, “You are all dismissed. Return to the pack. I will link if anything else is needed of you.”

They all raised their heads, shifted back into their wolves, and left through the trees, the same way they came. I sighed and turned back to the house. I was bloody, dirty, tired, and in desperate need of coffee. Rosy was standing on the front porch

wearing the same outfit as me. It was cute that we dressed so similarly for 2 very different looking people.

Dylan cleared his throat, and I turned back to him, one eyebrow raised. “Aren’t you coming in?” I asked, gesturing to the house.

He ran a hand through his hair and nodded, “Um, yeah, sure.” He didn’t sound very sure, but oh well.

I turned back to the house and gave Rosy an exasperated look, “We’re gonna need some coffee!”

She smiled, “I know, that’s why there’s already a pot of coffee made, and happily waiting for us in the kitchen.”
