Nova POV:
“Shall we clear the sparring area for now?” I ask Jax, “I know we are addressing the
pack before the run this evening about what I am.”
“Save Alex from embarrassment you mean?” Jax quips back to me.
Pointing my finger at him I laughed, “I never said that.”
Rolling his eyes he simply chuckles before running over to a couple of warriors to
politely ask them to leave as I ready myself to spar.
“First to tap out? One round human form another round wolf form?” The Alpha King suggests as he walks over to where I’m preparing.
“Yep, that sounds good to me” I smile rubbing my hands eagerly.
“Promise I’ll go easy” he laughs as he walks off making me frown.
“Men” I mutter to myself before I hear Luna Ophelia laughing lightly behind me.
“Sorry I didn’t mean that as an insult” I start before she waves me off.
“Oh don’t apologise, I’m well aware of what Alpha egos can be like” she says with a
pointed look towards her mate making me smile.
“Her wolf is very weak” I hear Kia say to me quietly as I quickly glance at the other
Luna noticing her slight paleness.
“Is everything ok Nova?” I hear Ophelia ask me as she must have caught my
hesitation. Looking around I check it is only the two of us before speaking.
“Will this spar cause any damage to yourself?” I ask quietly. Hearing that her eyes
widen as she nervously wets her lips.
“You know?” She asks warily.
“I know your wolf is weak” I whisper, “I don’t know why nor do I need to. But if you are
not strong enough to withstand the pain you may experience because of the bond
then I won’t spar with your mate, your health is the priority.”
Hearing those words her eyes soften as she smiles gratefully to me, “thank you Nova,

that truly does mean a lot. But ever since I fell ill we have been working with the pack doctors back home who are incredibly talented, Alex’s pain is not mirrored in me any longer. I’m sure you can understand with him being Alpha King and having fought a lot in the last few years it would have done more harm than good if we still had that connection. You can go ahead and spar, but thank you for your concern and lack of prying.”
“If you’re sure Luna” I say before bowing my head and walking to where Alex is waiting.
“Oh and Nova” she calls, “don’t hold back.”
“I heard you talk to my mate Nova” Alex says quietly as I reach him, “I will talk to you about it more in time but for now I want to simply say thank you. Your concern will have meant a great deal to Ophelia as it does me.”
“Ok Alpha, don’t feel like you have to just because I’m aware. I know it’s not my business I just simply wanted to check the Luna would be safe” I say with a small
smile.
“She will be, I spar daily with my men back home” he explains. “I couldn’t risk her
feeling any blows so we dealt with it.”
“Noted” I say before smirking at him. “I won’t hold back then.”
Stepping back a few paces I look to Jax who is grinning at the sidelines, “alright first to submit loses in each round. Human form first, any questions?” He shouts.
We both shake our head as Alex pulls his top off. Flexing his muscles he smirks at me
before asking “nervous?”
Chuckling I quietly observe his large muscular form which must have taken years to
reach. “No” I reply simply making him falter slightly before his face hardens into that
of determination.
Keeping myself relaxed we begin to circle one another sizing each other up, seeing
his weight shift slightly I grin in anticipation as he flies off of the mark swinging with
his right arm to deliver a punishing blow to my side. I easily side step and grasp his
arm twisting it behind him before pushing him away using his own momentum with
ease.

Sparing
“Have to try harder than that Alpha” I tease.
He growls slightly before moving in quickly and releasing a flurry of short precise jabs to my ribs which I block effectively. Continuing this for a few moments I spot a few patterns of his and notice his jabs are becoming more desperate. Seeing his leg swing to catch me low I spring in the air flipping over his head before punching him powerfully in the back before he can regain his balance, causing him to stumble forwards a couple of steps.
“H..how?” He asks shocked before righting himself. Sensing the frustration coming off of him in waves I step back slightly to give him some space. Seeing that he quickly dives towards me tackling me round the waist and sending me sprawling on the floor as he traps me from above. Swinging his arm to deliver a harmful blow to my head I quickly catch his fist in my hand immediately halting his movements before twisting and squeezing it slightly making him hiss in pain.
Using this to my advantage I lift my legs and lock them at his waist before using my weight to roll us. Standing quickly he does the same before I initiate the attack for the first time. Moving low I punch his right side which he blocks with both arms but it leaves his left side unprotected, seeing that I move up as I swing my leg round making strong contact with his thigh making him stumble again. Not giving him time to recover I jab him twice in the abdomen leaving him breathless as he leans over. I quickly move round him and grasp his arms before pushing him to the floor using my leg, standing above him I move my foot to his neck as I hold his arms outstretched.
He struggles for a few moments before slumping to the floor unable to move, he then
bares his neck as best he could with my foot being where it was to show he submits.
Stepping back immediately I offer my hand to him as he rolls over to stand up. Taking
it he looks at me with narrowed eyes before stalking away.
“That was embarrassing” I hear him mutter as he gulps down a drink.
“Nova wins” I hear Jax call out gleefully earning himself a glare from Alex. “Wolf form” he then says slightly more somber although his eyes still bright with excitement.
Quickly stripping out of my clothes before I shift I hear a low growl from Jax as I look
up to see him glaring at both Ophelia and Alex who are openly staring at my b*dy.
Shifting quickly to avoid embarrassment Kia then sits on her haunches c*****g her

head questioningly.

“Sorry” Ophelia has the decent to murmur, “you’re extremely fit Nova, I admire your dedication to training..I imagine many people stare but it was rude of us to do so.”
She throws Alex a sharp look at he turns to Jax with wide eyes, “how the f**k is she so strong?” He growls. “Her figure is toned and strong there is no mistake but she is stronger than her figure suggests.”
“Do you have to ask?” Jax replies before pointing at Kia.
“Ah..” Alex sighs before quickly stripping as Kia looks away politefully.
“Point proven Kia” I hear Ophelia chuckle as she huffs in response.
“Ok same rules apply” Jax calls out as Alex’s wolf stalks forward, pitch black with rippling muscles and the same bright green eyes.
“Fight” I hear Jax call before his wolf leaps at Kia, she swiftly rolls and bucks her back legs slashing his open belly as he yelps in surprise. Surging to her feet she spins as he immediately moves in trying to bite her flank but she evades his attack and nimbly nips his side as she does so.
“She’s fast” I hear Ophelia admire as Kia purrs in appreciation.
Lunging forward Kia lowers her head to charge into his wolf’s side causing him to loose his balance before she bites his back leg causing him to loose a chunk of fur.
