Chasing His Betrayed Luna by KiKi Jones

26. A Heated Kiss

ALPHA RAIDEN

The semi-finals of the pack games kicked off two days after the arrival of every other qualified pack to mine. I took pride in the fact that my arena was so much bigger than the one at Black Fur and I've worked closely with Larisa to provide entertainment for the games. So far, It has been fun.

But for the millionth time that day, my eyes scanned the arena in search of Aurelia. She was all I could think about these days. Unfortunately, I rarely get to see her anywhere except in my dreams.

"Well, there she is," Lex said to me right in time for Aurelia to step into the arena in the same dueling leather she had that made me twitch in my pants-

Larisa snorted beside me, cutting my train of thought, "There's no way she would survive dueling with Tara."

Tara was from my pack and she was a strong warrior with muscles in all the right places even though she wasn't bulky. Perhaps I'd have agreed with Larisa if I hadn't seen Aurelia defeat opponents who were bigger and stronger than Tara.

"She will," I said to Larisa whose eyes cut to mine. I'd made the mistake of doubting Aurelia's skills at the beginning of the game but I knew better now even though I didn't want my pack to lose any aspects of the game to Black Fur. "She's stronger than she looks." "I'd prefer you don't sing her praises, Raid. Please." Larisa hissed into my mind yet she maintained her bright smile.

I ignored her and focused on Aurelia's duel after sighting Tristan who was sitting with other Alphas a few sections from where I was sitting with Larisa. Watching Aurelia's games helped me learn some of her tactics and I must say, she was impressive. Initially, I wondered how she managed to become such a skilled warrior but after seeing Tristan's interest in her, I got my answer.
