How far will love take us?

Chapter 5

That morning I woke from my dream wishing that I had never woken. I wanted to find my mate so bad it was like I could still smell him. Is this how it will be when I catch his smell the first time? Is this what I will feel? Fear? I sit up in bed just wondering what I had dreamt. It was almost so real that I could still smell him in my nose. I wonder if this was a glimpse from the Moon Goddess trying to keep my hopes up and allow me to know that my mate is out there. I shake it off and look over to my sisters bed for Trish only to find it empty. I start to get worried and look around the room some more. 

Just as I was getting out of my bed to go to the door she walks in with her toiletries bag and smiles. 

"Nice of you to join us sleepy head!" She smiles as she puts her bag away.

I just let out a big laugh and walked over to my closet looking to find some work out clothes. It was time today to put on some comfy clothes and start learning how to defend ourselves. I had planned in my head out how we were going to approach Gavin and Devin. If that didn't work I was going to go straight to my dad and have him do that for me. I wanted to be ready for anything that might happen. I know I will not be combat ready in a week, but I had to do better then what I was now. 

I grabbed some Capri yoga pants and a razorback red tank to match the coloring and threw on my pair of sneakers and socks. I watched as Trish put on something similar and went over to my vanity to fix my hair and put on some deodorant. As soon as I was done so was Trish. 

"You ready?"

"You bet!"

At that we openned the door to find Devin standing there almost half asleep. We woke him up as soon as he heard the door open. He saw that we both were smiling at him and that made him raise his eyebrow at us with wonder.

"What do you guys want?" He asked.

" Well we were hoping that since there is something happening and we need to possibly be prepared that you would train us. We know that you are a big bad wolf and nothing could ever happen to you, but in the unlikely event that you couldnt protect us or needed help we wanted to know what to do! So, would you train us?????"

"PLEASEEEEEEEEE..." We both said in unison.

His jaw dropped and he just looked at us. I don't think he ever thought this is what we would of asked of him. Maybe to go out and shop, or to let him let us go, or to even go to the men's section of the pack house. But, this was something he never expected. So he just closed his mouth and sat thinking for a minute. I think he was weighing his options. Finally he gave us his answer.

"I need to ask your father. Give me a second." Standing there he went silent. I knew he was mind linking my father to see if he was okay with Devin doing this. It felt like hours before Devin finally looked down at us. He wasnt done hearing whatever my father was saying though because he looked at us, but still refused to say anything. Trish and I were holding hands and tucking in together crossing our fingers hoping that he says yes. 

"Okay. Your father says that it would be a great idea. What was taking so long was he was trying to find your mother Trish because he is not responsible for your well-being and wanted to make sure it was okay with her as well. She said that would be fine. Gavin is sleeping since he just finished shift a bit ago so your father is sending Jay over to help me train you both. Lets head out to the training hall and get started if you are ready?"

"Yes I am!!!" We again said in unisen. You would think that we were twins seperated at birth. But, we definitely werent I just knew we were going to be good friends fast. No matter what came our way.

**--**

After what seemed like hours of Jay and Devin hitting us, catching us from different sides, and making us run forever we were done for the day. It was time to go get some dinner. We had eatten a small lunch that my sister brought us there in the training field and was only given 20 minutes to finish it. I ate it as if I had never eatten before. It was so tasty and good along with the large powerade she brought each of us. 

Devin was really hard on us. He took this training seriously and I was thankful for it. I think he was taking all of the rage and anger of having to watch me out on me. It wasnt my fault that my father chose him and Gavin to watch me, but it still felt like he resented it a bit. He still had no mate either and I felt sorry for him. He has put all of himself in to being a warrior and I think he feels that is enough for him. I have only seen him laugh once and that is when I was walking by the food hall before all this happened and Jay had said something funny I assumed to him and he just laughed so hard I thought he would fall down and roll on the ground.

Now though he was acting like he had no feelings at all. I would crouch in a position pretending to be behind a tree and bam he would hit me in the back with his foot. I would go down hard on my back and there he would be telling me I just got my throat ripped out. I felt for poor Trish as well! Jay wasnt any nicer to her just because she was from another pack. He had her working out hard and then attacking her when she hadnt expected it. We both kept our heads high and continued to listen to everything they had to tell us. 

He told us that we were done for the day and that we would start this again bright and early. If we were really serious about working on our skills and possibly staying alive in the even something happens and we need to protect ourselves we can. Or at least we can fight back enough so that we can run. I am glad that he was willing to help us because I dont know what else we would of done. I really wanted to find my mate and this was going to get us closer to having that happen. 

Trish and I slowly and I mean slowly walked back up each stairs to my room. We played rock, paper, scissors to see who got the bathroom first. We both had worked a hard sweat up and I couldnt wait for the warm water to hit my aching muscles. She won of course and so I sat on my bed waiting for her to finish. I knew it might be a while so I grabbed out the night clothes I was going to wear and grabbed out my phone. 10:22 pm shone brightly on the screen. I opened it up and sent my sister a text thanking her and asking if she would bring us lunch again tomorrow. She made some snarky comment and then told me to get to bed ninja warrior. It just made me laugh. I closed my phone just as Trish walked in. 

I grabbed up my towel and headed to the shower. The hot water felt so good on every inch of my body that I almost crashed right there in the shower. I barely finish my shower before I start to fade. I wonder what time Devin is going to wake us in the morning. I dread a before the sun rises wake up call, but I know its going to happen. He was a warrior and he only knew fighting for and protecting his pack. I got into my pajama bottoms and matching tank and got into bed. I hoped that the dream would come and thinking about the smell of my mate again I finally drifted off for the few hours of sleep I had until Devin came  to wake us.

I was back in the field again. It didnt look familiar, but it seemed like I had been here before or at least through someone elses eyes. I lifted my nose up in the air and realised that I was already in my wolf form. I sniffed the ground, but he wasnt anywhere that I could smell. Last night he was everywhere? Why could I not smell him anymore. I started to run as fast as I could which seemed like forever until things started to look familiar. 

I stopped outside the barrier wall of our pack house and sat down. Why where my dreams bringing me here. It seemed like it was telling me something. Does it want me to stay close to home? Do I need to keep my pack safe? But, from what? I didnt get what my dreams were trying to tell me, but they didnt seem like dreams, but actual thoughts I should consider. My pack was everything to me and I wanetd nothing but to keep everyone safe. Just as I was thinking about that I caught the smell.

I could smell him as if he was standing right behind me. It was all over my fur. I sniffed my paws and I could smell that beautiful scent. I smell the dark musk and something so familiar again. I turn around quick to see a tail running away from me. My heart sinks thinking this means that he has rejected me. I dont think I can take being rejected after trying so hard to find him so I follow him. It seems like every time I get close enough to see his wolf he moves another direction and looses me again... 

A/N- Okay. So its starting to get good right? She is having dreams? And now she is training!! OMG what could that odd smell be! Keep reading! Comment or shoot me a message with any questions! Should have another chapter soon. Hope you like this so far!  XOXO
