Derek stepped forward looking angry for the first time, that I've seen anyway. "Stand down, Alisha!" He said looking furious that she's doing this.

"No! Why should she be Luna? I know this pack, I've lived here since birth and I've known you for years! But she's known you less then a week and that's that!?" She said getting louder and louder.

"Of course, that's that! She's my mate Alisha. Do you understand if you lose to Mila that she can choose to kill you, put you in the cells or outcast you?" He asks giving her a chance to pull out.

"I wont lose to her!" She spat out. "Look at her, she's small and even lived with a weaker pack before being here." With mention if my old pack my ears pricked up a bit more.

I'm not going to be made to feel weak in front of a pack I'm meant to lead! I growl.

Lets show this trespassing bìťćh who's really in charge. My wolf growls back.

"It's fine! I accept your challenge Alisha." I say with as much confidence as I can muster.

Everyone looks at me shocked. Alisha smirks like she's already won. First mistake, never underestimate your opponent.

"Are you sure you want to do this?" Derek whispers so only I can hear.

I smile at him. "Absolutely." I whisper back. "Two birds with one stone. I can show your pack I can hold my own, as well as beat the śhìť out of the girl who clearly doesn't understand she's never touching you again."

He chuckles but nods reluctantly. "Don't lose, love. I only want you as my Luna."

I give him a quick kiss on the lips before turning to see Alisha looking pìśśèď off again. Good, anger makes you sloppy.

I make my way into the crowd formed circle. Where the boys are on the edge to be able to see clearly. I see Greg whisper to Derek with a smile and Derek nods slightly.

I turn to see Alisha as she's about to throw but I quickly dodge to the side and throw a punch to her ribs.

She turns to me quickly and starts to punch my face then my side but I manage to block them. I wait for an opening in her punches and when I spot it, I dodge her attack and quickly punch her square in the nose.

She screeches while stomping her foot and lunges at me. Knocking me to the ground. She starts to shift on top of me and I see my moment. I shove her to the side and get up as quickly as I can.

She turns to me now in her wolf form.  I can't help but smile at her, she's smaller then me. I've also spent plenty of time fighting wolves in both human and wolf form so I'm not as worried as I think she hopes I am.

I can hear Derek yell for me to shift, but I refuse. If I shift while she expects it she will have the perfect chance to get me.

She lunges at me and I quickly move out the way but she still manages to scratch my leg with her claws. "Ahhh!" That pìśśèď me off, we may heal quicker than humans but it still hurts like a bìťćh!

I look at the damage and see it may need stitches but otherwise I'm good. I quickly look to Derek to see Greg and Chris holding his arms while Greg talks to him.

I think this needs to end soon before his wolf takes over his body. His eyes are flickering between gold and green, male wolves are protective of their mates and Alphas are worse.

I turn back to Alisha to see she's getting ready to lunge at me again. For someone who said I'm weak, she seems to have a predictable fighting style.

As she lunges for me I feel my claws extend and my fangs come out. Fed up with this fight.

Dodging her teeth as quick as I can, I spin around and slash her arm for good measure. While shes distracted with her arm, I jump onto her back to pin her down and hold my claws to her throat while baring my fangs at her growling lowly.

She tries to struggle out of my hold but I tighten my grip so a couple of drops of blood come out. I roar right next to her ear to make my point.  She drops to the ground submitting. I get off her and command her "Shift!"

When she does I grab a shirt someone offered and give it to her. When dressed she stands up.

"I wont kill you and I wont banish you but I wont have another wolf think my mate is there own!" I say loud enough for others to hear. "Now you've had your fair try at me, you can go enjoy the pack cells." I see her eyes widen at that. "Don't worry, I'm not the total bìťćh you think I am. You can go in them for a week. But try to take my mate from me again and I wont hesitate to banish you."

Two warriors come to grab her arms and lead her straight to the cells. I tell the third warrior with them to make sure her wounds are looked at and give her pants. I may hate her but I'm not heartless.

As they walk off, the surrounding members clap for my win. I smile gratefully, then yelp when Derek comes and hugs me tightly.

"Don't scare me like that again." He says with his head in my neck. I chuckle but nod anyway. I quickly look at Greg who winks at me, he knows what I'm like when someone accuses me of being weak.

Next thing I know Derek scoops me up bridal style. "What are you doing? Put me down." I giggle at him.

He smiles at me, "No way. I'm taking you to the pack doctor. Your leg is still bleeding, then I can take you home and look after you."

I look down and see he's right.. hmm I guess it was deep. I snuggle into him and agree to go to the doctor.

Ah well, it is nice being carried by Derek.
