YILEYNA

 

Last night’s events were fresh on my mind, along with Alpha Andres’s and Theon’s parting words, I hadn’t even been able to thank him for helping fix my arm. Something that I could have done myself, but it’s a lot easier when you’re not the one snapping your bones back into place. I hadn’t shifted yet, so I didn’t heal as fast as those who had.

 

I had woken up with Theon’s words playing on my mind and an ache between my legs that begged for only one man’s touch. As much as I was sure I could find a man to satiate the hunger, I didn’t want just anyone.

 

I had changed and come out to one of the smaller, less frequently used training fields. No one really came this far out often, and since the pack had in a way shunned me, I felt more comfortable training out here alone.

 

Rain had fallen heavily all through the night and it was still ongoing. The ground beneath my feet was muddy and my boots were completely covered in it. Squelching with every move I made as I punched the tree repeatedly, venting my frustration.

 

I was wearing a tank top with a leather jacket and pants; my hair was open, and I was completely drenched despite the overhead branches that partially shielded me from the rain. I didn’t mind it, I was simply relieved that there was not a soul in sight. I guess the regulars were all training in the indoor courts and halls.

 

I punched the tree again, the Alpha’s words ringing in my head.

 

‘Talent but no strength.’

 

The tone of his voice made it obvious I was just a failure…

 

I punched the tree harder, staring at the blood that streaked the trunk. Despite the bandages I had wrapped around my hands, I had still bruised them. The once white wrap was covered with dirt, water, and blood.

 

Useless.

 

A failure…

 

I was a shame to the De’Lacor name… I was meant to be my father’s legacy… Someone who he’d be proud to call his daughter, the future Beta, but without my wolf, I don’t think that title was going to be mine.

 

It had been two months and I knew the rest of the ranked wolves wanted the king to pick a new Beta… No doubt the Gamma and Delta wolves had their eyes on that position. A position that was rightfully the De’Lacor’s.

 

I felt an all-too-familiar stinging in my eyes as I continued to hit the tree. My grunts, whimpers of pain and effort faded into the sound of the downpour. Weather that truly fitted my mood.

 

I kept going, no longer focusing on anything but the pain in my entire body, I knew I was going to end up in bed for an entire day after this.

 

I stumbled, my feet skidding in the mud. I fell forward, bracing my hands on the tree as my knees hit the ground.

 

“Now I think that’s the best position for you to be in.” A haughty voice from behind came.

 

Irritation flashed through me as I got to my feet, turning to look at the two young men who stood there. Nikolai and Kyson. Warriors that were of the same rank as Theon, but unlike him, both were trash in my eyes.

 

It had been Nikolai who had spoken. With his dark hair and blue eyes, one might think he was handsome, but his personality was far from it.
