My Darkest Secret

Chapter 13- Being Angry

Hello. I am really excited to write this chapter, I hope you enjoy and have a great day.😘

~~~~~~~~~~~~*°*°*~~~~~~~~~~~~

Maya's POV

"I should warn you, I'm the best warrior here." she declared, many people giving her distasteful looks as she said this,

"You really, really aren't Elissa." Mara interjected, before giving me a look as if to say 'go for it'. In all honesty, she could have been saying, 'don't'- but I'll take her look how I want to.

"Whatever. it's a minor detail. Anyway, I know for a fact that I'm better than this nobody. She couldn't even land a-" Her incessant droning on was cut off, as my fist connected with her face. Everyone was shocked, that shock soon turning into a mixture of excitement and anger. Elissa's face soon contorted into one of pure rage, as she ran at me, in an attempt to tackle me to the ground, which I dodged with ease. She turned around, and her eyes shone a deep red. She was really angry now. Perfect.

When people are angry, they don't think straight. She began to throw punches and kicks at me, barely any actually meeting their target, minus one that hit me square in the jaw as I was fighting the urge to wolf out. Elissa then tried to land a punch to my stomach, which made me drop to the floor instinctively. I hooked her feet with my leg, and consequently knocked her over. I pinned her down as she tried to pry from my grip, I wasn't angry. It was more that I was rather annoyed by her smugness.

"Oh by the way Elissa." I spat, "No one likes an overconfident bitch." I snarled before getting off her and offering her a hand up- I was still a goodish person. When I wanted to be. She on the other hand, was to arrogant and declined my offer, getting up herself. I was about to walk off, and get some food that I desperately wanted, but Elissa had other plans.

Snarling, she ran up behind me. Presumably trying to catch me off guard. I heard as she took out her claws and was almost behind me. I caught her arm as it was about to slash my shoulder, and threw her in front of me, her face hitting the floor. It was then that I realized that her claws were bright purple. This maniac had...painted them?

"That's not normal. Right?" I questioned Mara pointing at Elissa's nails. Mara's face was full of astonishment, as she simply nodded as I walked away in search of food. Honestly, all I wanted was some food and instead I had to fight some weirdo.

Xander's POV

I had just finished a phone call with Alpha Boyd discussing the upcoming summit. When suddenly I felt an odd pain in my jaw. Brushing it off, I started filling out paperwork for a pack member's transfer, untill I heard loud noises coming from outside.

Curious, I tapped into the whole pack mindlink,

'How is she doing that?'

'finally. She had it coming.'

'who even is she?'

'that's gotta hurt.'

All these voices filled my head, presumably all coming from the training area, the source of the commotion. I got up, and went outside to go and investigate.

I walked out the door, to be met with Maya looking content, walking inside. I looked around, and saw every one was standing around in shock, and Elissa was on the floor, sitting down on a mat, her nose still bleeding and one of her arms at an odd angle. I looked at Mara, giving her a look to say 'what happened?'. She simply laughed before tilting her head in the direction Maya had come from.

"Oh Xandy. Thank goodness you're here. Some random mutt beat me up. Go and throw her in pack jail. She hurt your mate. She cooed, her voice sickeningly sweet. I put 2 and 2 together and surmised that Maya had done this. I controlled my rage at Elissa calling her a mutt, I wanted to shout at her, or at least say something. But that would mean telling everyone that Maya is my mate, which meant a lot of shit for Maya to handle.
