Blayre's P.O.V. 

*Flashback:

I stood cowering in the corner, desperately trying to block out the horrible sounds and sights in front of me. “Stop! Please STOP!” My voice cracked as I cried out, trying to gain his attention. He didn’t even bat an eyelash. Matthew. My so called best friend. We had done everything together, before I knew him I had heard stories about how he was crazy and couldn’t handle his emotions.

I never once believed them.

I was so wrong about that. One night we were having a sleepover when I had gone upstairs to get some extra pillows and blankets when I heard a shriek. I thought that Matthew had tried to scare my mum, like he usually does. My head snapped up as I heard my dad yell. My dad was a quiet and reserved man, he was never loud so this caught my attention.

I ditched my search and went bounding down the stairs. I ran into the living room and my heart stopped. Matthew was on one side of the room holding a knife from our knife block in the kitchen, while my father was bleeding heavily and trying to protect my mother. My father’s side was dark red with blood and my mother was shaking behind him, trying to cover the wound.

I raced forward and tried to distract Matthew away from my injured parents. I jumped on his back, he tensed and slammed me into the wall. I cried out as my back cracked and I felt some ribs shift. I covered his eyes with my hands and looked at my family, pleading with them to leave, to get help, anything. Matthew growled and grabbed my hair in his hands. He pulled on it and flipped me onto the coffee table. I screamed as the wood and glass stabbed into my back and sides. My mother screamed as Matthew threw the knife into my fathers chest, killing him.

Tears were running down my face as my father fell in slow motion. My mother, consumed by anger and sorrow, leapt forward to tackle Matthew. Matthew was ready and shoved the knife upwards, into her throat. My mother fell over and began to choke, blood clogging her airways. I stood up shakily and grabbed a giant chunk of glass from the broken table and threw it as hard as I could at Matthew’s back. I watched as it sunk in and he howled, before pulling it out and racing out the door. My legs gave out and I crawled towards my dying mother.

“Mama! Mama! Stay with me please Mama!!” My voice broke as she began to convulse. I hadn’t called her Mama since I was a young child. She stilled suddenly and her eyes opened. I smiled, thinking she was surviving when she gasped and said one last thing before her eyes glazed over and she was gone. “I love you Minka.”

*Flashback over

I sat up gasping for air. Tears were streaming down my face and staining my shirt. I ripped the covers off of me and ran into the bathroom, hopping into the shower. I showered quickly, images from the night and the dream swirling in my head like water down a drain. I quickly put my hair in a bun and changed into a pair of black shorts, a black t-shirt and some black running shoes. Training clothes.

I went over to Kane’s room and barged in. I shook him awake and he stared groggily at me and took in my outfit. He frowned and nodded jumping up and headed into his bathroom, beginning to get ready. I ran over to Kurt’s room and did the same. When they were ready we walked into the living room and began to yell. “TRAINING TIME, GET YOUR ASSES UP!!!!!!” I cracked a small smile as they started to do an Indian dance and sing loudly.

People began to come downstairs, prepared and ready for training. I smiled and led the way outside. I turned to face them and finally noticed that Anthony was staring at me. He was dressed in just a pair of black shorts and I couldn’t help but stare at him, blushing as I remembered our time in the hallway. Kane cleared his throat beside me and I snapped back into training mode.

“Ok people so we are going to do some basic human training today. I don’t want anyone trying to shift. Got it? Good. Find a partner and begin to spar with them. Hand to hand only.” I nodded as people began to split up and work on their hand to hand. I felt a tap on my shoulder and turned quickly, just to see Anthony there with a smirk on his face. “There isn’t enough people to be able to pair off evenly. Do you want to be my partner?” I smiled evilly and nodded watching his face brighten.

I winked at Kane as I followed Anthony off to the side. He turned to face me and gave me such a sexy smirk that my knees went weak for a second. “I’ll go easy on you.” I said with a smile in my voice. He shook his head and laughed. “I should be saying that to you.” He responded.

Anthony’s P.O.V.

“I should be saying that to you.” I responded with a smirk. She just smiled back at me before crouching down. “Kane!” She called. A whistled rang through the air and I knew it was time to begin. I really didn’t want to hurt her, I mean she is my mate.

I stared at her as a piece of her beautiful hair fell in front of her gorgeous eyes. She suddenly disappeared and I felt a punch land on my stomach. I gasped and spun around hearing her tinkling laugh from behind me. “Come on Orkney you can do better!” I pushed forward and slammed my shoulder into her back, only to miss. I felt her elbow smash into my ribs and I fell backwards, gasping for air. I spun around only to be tackled and pinned to the ground.

“You lose, I win.” She whispered into my ear just as a whistle blew behind us. She kissed my neck lightly and sprung up smirking proudly down at me. She stuck her hand out and I grasped it. She gave a small grunt and pulled me up beside her. I grinned and gave her a kiss on the cheek. “You’re so beautiful Blayre. How did you get so good at fighting?” I asked, mildly curious. She shook her head and smiled surreptitiously. She clapped her hands and I jumped about a foot in the air, causing her to laugh.

Blayre slapped a hand to her mouth and blushed, fidgeting embarrassedly. I chuckled and rubbed her back soothingly. “Umm ok people! Good job for today, same time next week and we’ll be practicing in wolf form!” She dismissed them with a wave and turned towards Kane and Kurt as the others filed back into the house. “Ok gay and straight! Time to have some breakfast.” She turned to leave but I grabbed her arm and pulled her back to me. “Nu-uh-uh how about we go out to breakfast? Just you and me!” I said, pointedly glaring at Kane and Kurt.

I turned back to Blayre, waiting for her response. She seemed stunned. Slowly she snapped back into the present and nodded her head, as if in a daze. I kissed her on the cheek and headed back into the house to change. “Change and be ready to leave in 10 minutes!” I called back to her. As I stepped into the house I heard Kane give a girlish shriek and Kurt gave a loud whoop, while Blayre laughed. I grinned, time for my first date with my mate.
