Chapter 0157

“Oh, really? I would like to see that. It’s not everyday you get achance to beat an Alpha.” I giggle

and wink at Cam who has an unreadable expression on his face.

“Alright little man, it sounds like you want a challenge and I don’t know how I feel about you taking

my girl's attention or holding her hand. I might not play fair now.

Brandon's eyes go wide and he looks at his hand in mine and jumps back like I electrocuted him.

“I’m sorry Alpha, that’s not what I meant at all. I just wanted Sky to watch, you know, since she’s

been teaching us and all, and..."

“Brandon, relax, he was just teasing.” I try to calm the rambling boy down.

Was I though? If I’m not allowed to touch you, no one else is. Cam mindlinks me.

My jaw drops open, but Cam just turns around winking at me. “Come on Brandon, let's show your

fearless leader what you can do.” Cam walks off with Brandon, and I am speechless.

As soon as my brain checks in and I realize I should be moving, a Massive arm wraps around my

shoulder.

It’s only fair that I get to be close too, even if it’sa minute. Yes I’m jealous that an eight year old was

holding your hand and from watching my brother hold you. Dakota mindlinks me, but doesn’t look at

me, just propels us forward where Cam and Brandon are setting up to spar. He doesn't release me

like I thought he would though, just leaves his arm loosely draped over my shoulder.

“Alright little man, let's see what you got.” Cam taunts Brandon who doesn't seem phased at all.

He’s bouncing around like a heavy weight boxer getting ready to start a fight.

They get into position and Cam grabs Brandon like they were practicing before, but instead of

letting Brandon with the fight quickly, Cam puts more resistance on him and makes it more difficult

for Brandon to break the hold. Brando tries the release again and again, finally on the fourth attempt

Cam lets him break the hold.

“Awe man, that was way harder this time. Did you just go easy on me to make me feel better the

first time?” Brandon almost looks defeated. I move to go to him and try to help him understand that

Cam is making him better this way, but Kota grabs my arm,holding me in place.

“I would never do that to you little man. The first time was to show you how getting out of the hold

works, then we keep working on it so the move is in your muscle memory no matter the situation,

then as you get better, we make it harder and harder to break so you’re always learning. Besides, I

couldn’t let you make me look weak in front of the girls.” He winks at Brandon whose smile lights up

his whole face, making me smile too.

A low rumbling huff comes from the other side of the sparring circle. I look up sharply to see Oliver

staring daggers at me with a scowl on his face. He rolls his eyes and turns to walk away.

He doesn’t get far before we hear, “Oh Goddess there you are! I have been looking for you

everywhere. The Luna wasn’t sure where all of you were. Of course you are working with these

sweet little pups, it’s so great how you spend your spare time with them. I just wanted to make sure

that you boys left on time to get ready to take us to the mating ball. We have to be right on time for

the grand entrance. I heard that Alpha Prince Alexander was coming too since he became such

good friends with you all during the trial, so we for sure can’t be late.” Kaley’s high-pitched tone

came at us from the entrance of the arena. She is talking animatedly with her hands like a fairy in a

movie.

“What are you talking about?” Sam asks coming up next to me. “We have plenty of time, two more

training sessions and none of us are taking you anywhere. I know that we all made that perfectly

clear. We are going as a group.” He points generally to the guys, Sierra and I. “And just to be one

hundred percent clear that does not include yourself, Marnie or Jeanie. Please stop trying to force

the issue or change our minds.”
