Chapter 10: MATES!?!?!?!?!?!?

Before I knew it, I was clinging to some strange girl. I mean, seriously, who does that? I can tell you that my actions definitely caught everyone's attention. What am I thinking? I can't find my mate, it'll ruin my whole plan.

Slowly, I tilted my head up to look at the girl that I had my arms wrapped around. She looked down at me in shock, probably because a stranger was strangling her legs. Of course, not too hard, just hard enough to make sure she wouldn't escape. Wait, hold the phone, did I seriously just think that?

I began to remember that we were in public and that people were, in fact, staring. Their eyes were as big as saucers, not even Nathan could hold in his surprise to find out that this girl was my mate.

"Would you please stop molesting my legs? No offense dude, but it's kind of weird and it's definitely not helping you score any points in my books."

I was shocked. How else am I supposed to reply to a situation like this?

"I... uh...ah...YOU SMELL PRETTY!"

I slapped myself. I literally slapped myself after saying that out loud. How embarrassing. I'm usually really good with talking with girls, but with her I couldn't help but make a fool of myself. I don't even know her name and I'm still screwing up. I let go of her legs and got up off the ground as quick as possible. How could I be so stupid?

"Um...thanks I guess?"

"Um...I mean you don't smell pretty. Oh wait, that sounded bad, I mean you spell well! I mean smell, smell! Oh god I'm such a mess. I mean, I'm not like a bad mess. Um wait-

Is there even such a thing as good mess? YOU KNOW WHAT, I'M JUST GONNA SHUT UP NOW!" I stuttered as I rubbed the back of my neck.

"Thanks for the compliment. So, uh, I think you're sweating, really badly."

"You know what, I'm going to be over there." I said slowly walking away.

When I was about to walk passed my dad he wrapped his arm around my chest and stop me. I looked over to him, seeing him mouth the words "No"

He turned me around so that I was facing every one of the packs' leaders and their families. The man standing next to my mate started to make his way to the center of our little square along with a boy who looked slightly older than me. He had broad shoulders, and a very muscular body. I'm pretty sure that is supposed to be his son and the current alpha to their pack; however his father was still considered an Alpha.

Nathan and his father were already in the center of the square so they didn't move, but the other pack, which I just noticed, also made their way to the center as well. The Alpha looked about my dad's age. At his side was the current Alpha of their pack.

My father and I continued to stand where we were. Although instead of looking at the Alphas surrounding me, I looked at the ground. I had made a fool of myself.

"So it would seem Alpha John that our children are mates. Your eldest and only child and my youngest and certainly not an only child shall unite our two packs." Said the same man that had be standing next to my mate, I guess you could say that he's her father. Wait! What am I saying? That is her father.

"I beg to differ, we had an agreement so that our to sons would choose their mates from either your daughter, Alpha Nikolai, and your daughter, Alpha Samuel."

"BUT, they're mates, do you dare to separate and defy fate!" said Alpha Nikolai, my mates father.

"I do dare, and we shall settle this the way it was written 18 years ago."

"What do you mean?" I asked

"You and Nathan will compete to see who will choose their future mate first, then the other will take the other girl. It's as simple as that." He said smirking at me. It was obvious he thought that I would lose; after all it was evident in the smirk not so well hidden on his face.

"Okay, but what kind of competition.""It's a competition of strength...." Said my father, he didn't look too happy about all of this.

To be honest I don't even know if I want to compete, I mean I'm still with Mikayla and what about my tour. I've put it off long enough, it's time for me to get back to the people I care about.

"Very well then......the competition is a test of strength. Since Peter is a newly shifted wolf it wouldn't be fair to have you both fight in wolf form since he's still getting the hang of it. So you will both fight in your human forms. The first to fall and not get up in three seconds loses or you could drop out. Just simply yell 'wolf' and the fight stops. Understand?"

"Ya"

"Nope"

"Peter what is it that you don't understand?"

"Well let's see it could be the part where I have to fight for a girl, or it could be the part where I'm being held hostage, or maybe it's the part where you don't seem to listen to anything that I say."

"Peter." He said through gritted teeth. Someone looked pissed, but it's not like it really mattered.

"Yes?" So that probably wasn't the best response since my father's face was red. If it was possible for steam to come out of his ears, I'm sure it would.

Everybody in the circle stepped back, except Nathan and I. When I went to step back, Shaun stopped me.

"Ready. Set. Fight."

Before I knew it, Nathan was attacking me. His fists clipped my jaw and sent me onto my knees. Before I could get back up, he kicked me in the stomach, sending me flat on my back. As Nathan was walking over to where I lay, I jumped up using my arms and put my hands up in fighting position.

I knew how to fight, so this fight wasn't a total beat down on me. In my spare time, I had learned boxing, and some martial arts. Plus, I am pretty flexible from all that dancing and exercising.

This time I was ready for Nathan's hits. At this point I wasn't fighting for that girl; I was just fighting to protect myself. I round-house kicked Nathan in the side, successfully knocking him onto one knee. However, he quickly got up.

He launched himself at me, pinning me onto the ground. Nathan grabbed the collar of my shirt, and started to punch my face repeatedly. I could feel the flow of warm liquid flowing down the side of my temple. My vision was blurry, colors flashing by, mixing with each other.

I brought my knee up just enough to hurt Nathan's manhood. He let out a groan, but he forgot I was under him, giving me enough time to flip kick him off of me.

Slowly, I got up, spitting out the blood that was in my mouth. My body ached from all the hits. Nathan came at me again; this time kicking me in the back of my knee, I, in return, punched him in the gut. It didn't look like I had done much damage to him. Maybe I was going to lose, but I wasn't about to go out looking like I didn't accomplish anything. So, when the time came, I punched him in the face. His lips bled.

I finally had him on his hands and knees. I kicked him in the stomach multiple times. When I finally stopped Nathan was on his stomach, groaning and bleeding.

I turned around, thinking I had won. I was walking back to my dad when out of nowhere something hit my head. I collapsed on the ground. My body too sore to get up, I lay there. In what felt like the distance I heard people shouting. They were counting.

"3...2...1..."
