When Kier went inside at the beginning of warrior training, I knew someone was missing. Most days I start training and he makes sure that everyone got their asses out of bed to come to training. So, I wasn’t surprised when he went inside to collect the stragglers. I was, however, surprised, when it was Arlo who came out. He’s one of the few that loves warrior training. He loves the opportunity to hit someone, so he’s never late.

‘We have a problem, Alpha,‘ Kier says in the mind–link, joining me at the front of the group as I take them through the warm

up.

‘What’s that?‘

‘I caught him mouthing off to Luna,’ he tells me.

Raif growls angrily and everyone’s head snaps to me.

‘Is Kennedy okay?‘

‘Yes. She said she was and it didn’t look like he touched her. There was something with one of the omegas, but I’m not sure what that was about. She may have been with our Luna when Arlo approached them, but I’m not sure.‘

“Arlo you’re with me today,” I bark out loud. He glares at Kier, but nods.

I proceed to spend the next two hours kicking the shit out of him. He’s a good fighter, but he’s not an Alpha. “Alpha, is there a problem?” Slater, his brother, asks at the end of training, seeing how badly I pummeled Arlo. “Your brother apparently needed a reminder of who your Luna is mated to. I would suggest that anyone who thinks that they can mouth off to their Luna, take note. This is your future if you EVER disrespect my mate.”

“Yes, Alpha,” the warriors say. Slater reaches out his hand to help Arlo up and I slap it away. “He gets up on his own. He thinks he’s better than me, thinks he mouth off to my mate, disrespecting boht of us, then he can be man enough to pick his own ass up off the ground,” I snarl.

I know he’s hurt. I dislocated his shoulder, I heard a rib snap, and he started limping about an hour ago.

“Get up and get to my office,” I tell him, walking away. “Kier!”

“Right here, Alpha.”

“Grab food for the two of us and join me in my office,” I say, moderating my tone. I’m not angry at him. “Also, check in with the omegas and make sure my mate was okay when you left her

“Will do,” he says, walking off to toward the kitchen.

I reach out in the mind link and gently touch Kennedy’s mind. I can tell she’s busy working through her list for the hospital. I don’t sense any concern or worry, other than what she’s going to order. I’m not sure why she’s worried about it, but I’ll leave her to figure it out. I know nothing about hospital equipment or supplies.
