Blood Red (EDITING)

Training...again

Chapter 39
"Aw Esme you need to lighten up. Got anything to eat? I'm starving." He gave us a sharp toothed smile while his red eyes fell on me and Marie. Then our stomachs. Fuck.
"Get the fuck out Cannibal." Alicia shocked us all by hissing at him before physically pushing him all the way up the stairs and out of our sights.
"I still don't like him. Did he want to eat the puppies?" Reese asked looking at me and Marie. We both gulped and nodded. Glad she said puppies instead of your pups or your babies otherwise my cover would be blown.
"Who wants to try training right now?" I yelled trying to get the attention off of me. I also sent it out mentally to my pack mates who wouldn't leave their bedrooms.
A few minutes later we were all outside in the cold air except for Lauren, Reese and Joseph since they wouldn't be fighting. Lauren could have but she was terrified to attack anybody and she was pretty small so she would guard them.
"Hey Marie, not that I doubt your training abilities or anything but do you know anybody that could help us?" I asked her and she put on a sly grin before pulling her phone out of her jacket and pressing the second speed dial.
"Come here." Was all she said before she hung up and simply waited there. We all must have looked confused and awkward just standing there. It was starting to get dark so all of Diego's dogs had left and we could train freely.
Suddenly a very dark grey wolf sprang out of the woods and landed in the middle of the semi circle we had formed in front of Marie.
He quickly shifted back and he wore one of the morph suits that my pack had. Nifty. He was an older man having some grey in his own ginger hair. He was tall and muscular with a thick beard and happy green eyes. (Picture up top)
"Marie! Long time no see! You got fat!" He beamed and kissed her cheek.
"You got old," she laughed right back at him and he winked at her before spinning around and looking at me.
"And who might you be? Pleasure to meet you m'lady." He said as he grabbed my hand and kissed my knuckles. "I am Jordan Stark." He introduced himself with a bow.
"I'm Dove," I laughed, I couldn't help it this man spread joy.
"Well! What am I here for Marie?" He asked as he spun around again. "I'm assuming you didn't just want to chat out here in the cold. With vampires."
"You are correct Jordan. I need some help training these Dracula wannabes." She smiled and I could tell she was enjoying poking fun at the vampires. I couldn't help but laugh with her and the rest of the pack. Even Esmerelda and Igor were laughing.
"You think that funny do you love?" Axton asked, coming up behind me and nipping my ear. With his fangs out.
"Yes now put those away. They won't do you any good." I told him and stepped away, closer to Jordan who looked very amused.
"You planning a fight? I'll help." Jordan shrugged and I was giddy inside, if Marie called him for help then he had to be an amazing fighter. "Let's get started then!" He said with a clap of his hands.
----- 2 weeks later -----
Jordan was an amazing warrior. Like the best I've ever seen and he was a strict trainer. That's how he whipped us all into shape so fast.
The vampires moved with such speed even it seemed like they teleported, us wolves knew how to scan you for weak spots and just the right moves and blocks to get at it and take you down.
"Thank you so much Jordan!" I shouted and threw my arms around him. We had grown closer and I came to think of him as the uncle I always wanted. He also knew a bit about the werewolf royal family, it was a very well kept secret that I'm lucky I even found out about. He agrees that I might be royalty but right now we don't have time to get into it.
Edward was right, there was a total lunar eclipse coming in 6 days. He had also found 10 other people that didn't like Diego or his methods and were spying for us.
"You are welcome m'lady. Wanna go get some food?" He quipped as we looked out at the front lawn where everybody was practicing. We only practiced at night since that's when Diego's men left. Edward always told me when they were back to their temporary base.
He actually asked me why we didn't attack first and while it was a good plan it wasn't practical. We knew the terrain of this place better than they did so it would give us an advantage plus we had some people that were protecting not fighting and they could be taken if we were away from them.
"FOOD EVERYBODY, IM COOKING!" I shouted before running back inside before the mob ran me over.
