Chapter 91
Once we get to school, you can feel the energy in the air. Something is different today. All the kids
are buzzing about something. What could have happened in the last hour since training ended?
Kaley runs up to the twins who are leading our group up the wide path to school, and grabbing both
by an arm.
“Oh. My. Goddess! Did you hear?” She punctuates every word. “The trials for Elite Warrior training
are going to be at the end of this week. Isn’t that so exciting? I heard the Alpha King himself is going
to come down, since he heard so many great things about all of us from training yesterday.”
“What did she mean by ‘us?’ She didn’t actually do much of anything but parade around in her pink
outfit.” Sierra whispers to me and we exchange an eye roll, but say nothing else.
“You guys have done such a great job training everyone and leading. I bet that’s why he’s really
coming. He wants to see all the high ranking wolves in action. I can’t wait to sit next to you while our
best warriors show off their skills.” She jumped up and kissed Cam on the cheek unexpectedly and
turned toward Kota who stepped back knowing it was coming.
Cam looks like someone slapped him and he’s pissed. Kaley doesn’t seem to notice.
“We’ll see. Our parents usually have plans when we have guests. Not sure about what they will
expect of us if the Alpha King is truly coming. This is the first we are hearing these rumors.” Always
the diplomat, Cam.
“I’m sure they will expect the future alphas and their Luna as well as the rest of our future leaders to
be present for all of it.” She looks around at the guys and giggles then playfully slaps him in the arm.
Oliver clears his throat. “We don’t know who our future Luna is, and I’m sure if the Alpha King wants
people present he will let us know who will be allowed in his presence, I’m sure there are protocols
for that. We’re going to be late, let’s go.” He didn’t wait just stepped around Kaley and the rest of us
followed without looking back. She didn’t try to approach them when Sierra and I were around, for
the rest of the day
Tuesday and Wednesday are a blur of activity. Training remains the same and the Elite Warriors
end up sticking around because they are, in fact, running trials on Thursday and Friday. The school
board decided to cancel regular classes after training Wednesday morning so our higher level
students could spend time focusing on getting ready and the younger kids were just too wound up
with excitement over the whole thing to focus. I trained like I normally do and the guys and Sierra
grudgingly came along.
No one has confirmed whether or not the Alpha King is going to actually come, but the high school
rumor mill spread that information like wildfire. The dance is also next Saturday night so there will
be several things to celebrate. Which is our current topic of discussion.
We are all sitting at the diner, Martha bringing our usual meals. She always throws extra fries on my
plate or brings me a milkshake, even when I don’t order one. Sam is still trying to get her to give him
extras.
“We have to go as a group, it’s the only logical thing. No one takes a date to the spring dance
because of the mating celebration, but I still want a reason to tell Marnie I can’t go with her.” We all
laugh at Mateo. “She has told me twice a day, everyday, for two weeks what time to pick her up and
what color shirt to wear so we match. This b*tch is crazy!”
“She’s going to have a rude awakening when she’s waiting and no one shows.” Sam laughs.
“Jeanie tried the same thing, but I shut her down and I blocked her, so if she’s tried since I have no
idea.” Oliver shrugs his shoulders and lets out a huff that I think might have been a rare laugh.
“What about Kaley? Has she tried to rope the two of you into taking her?” Sierra asks the twins.
“She did, I told her we were taking Skylar.” Kota shrugs his shoulders. My eyes went wide.
“You what!?!” Now she really is going to try and kill me.
“Relax, it wasn’t a lie since we are all going together.”
“You know you need to put a protective detail on Sky now right?” Sierra looks between the two of
them who look like they’ve been hit with a stupid stick. “I’m kind of joking, but kind of not. Kaley is
willing to do anything to get close to the two of you including harming people. We’ve seen it.”
