Chapter 17

**Cole**



Oh, Goddess please, please let me get to her in time. I just found her. She can’t die. I assured her she wouldn’t have to fight the warriors here. I finally catch up, and I am in utter shock. Is this really happening?

What the hell am I seeing? Her small Wolf is taking on three of my warriors by herself. She grabs one by the neck, shakes him like a rag doll, and tosses him aside. Then she bites another one's tail and proceeds to scoot under him to bite his under belly. He rolls over whimpering. Just as she is about to charge at the last one, I notice more warriors coming in to help.

Dante mind links to them, and they all freeze. Winter’s wolf growls at them. She may be tiny, but she is fierce. How did she learn to fight like that? I was expecting to find that she had been obliterated, but here she is perfectly fine. She didn’t need me for protection.

Her wolf turns and sees Dante. She causally trots over as if nothing just happened, and starts to rub up on Dante. Nuzzling her snout all the way down his back. She flicks her tail in his face. Then she turns around and starts nuzzling her snout into his neck.

Sure, enough Dante is going berserk. He wants to play and run with her. All the warriors are watching this display. I start hearing their questions through the mind linking. “Alpha, what is going on?” “That is a rogue! Why is she cozying up to you?” “What is going on?”

With my mind link I reply “she won’t be a rogue in a few hours. She will be Red Dawn. She is my mate. How in hell did she beat you all so badly?! We will talk about this later. Return to what you were doing. Johnny, Mika gets yourselves over to the doc. If you can’t move, then ask one of the other warriors to help you there. I’ll check in with you later.”

Winter’s wolf looks at me and I can tell she wants to run. She starts up again this time I try my hardest, and I barely keep up. She is caked in mud. Suddenly she shifts as we get closer to the entrance of the pack house. She is butt ass naked! she proceeds to walk to her clothes. I shift as well.

I’m in disbelief at what I’m seeing. Her naked body is covered in mud, and she doesn’t even flinch. I notice some of the warriors are coming out of the pack house. They are eyeing her. She doesn’t even seem to care, I, on the other hand do not like them ogling her, but this isn’t the time or place to address it.

My eyes are fixated on her body. Her small waist, her perfect round ass. It even bounces a bit as she walks. She turns around as she starts to put her shorts on. I see her perfect round breasts. They are huge and her pink nipples are hard from the chilly rain. My Goddess, her pussy is bare. I think back to how she was plucking her legs last night. Does she pluck her hair down there too? Ouch, that has to hurt.

I catch up, and she waits while I get back into my boxer briefs and shorts. “I told you couldn’t keep up” she chuckles. “Now, are you ready to train?”

Who is this she -wolf? I am star struck. “Umm... What do you have in mind?”

“Well, we can run some more in our human forms, do sit-ups and push-ups, or we can spar if you want. Personally, I want to spar. The only sparring partners I’ve had in the last 5 years are trees.”

“Well, I guess if you really want to spar, we can, but I’m a lot bigger than you.”

“So are trees. I may be small, but I’m a force to be reckoned with. At least that is what my dad used to tell me.” She says with a devilish smile.

“How tall are you anyways” ask. I have been curious about this since I met her, she just seems tiny to me.

“Hmm... I don’t know. I haven’t been measured since I was 13, but if I had to guess I think I’m close to 5’5”. How tall are you?” “First off you are not 5’5”. You might be 5’3”! I’m 6’4”. If you think you are up for taking on the big bad Alpha then fine, we will spar.”

“Good, because I’m going to kick your ass.” She runs toward the big field in front of the pack house.

She is so darn fast, but I like to watch her run. Her hips sway, and her breasts and ass bounce up and down. Her messy mud-covered hair trails down her back. I catch up, and she gives me a minute to get set. She cries out “1, 2, 3 go.” Then she charges towards me. I reach out to grab her, but she slides between my legs. Suddenly she is up on my back, and she has me in a head lock. What just happened?

Once again, warriors start to approach. This time I think they are here out of curiosity. If I were in their shoes, I would be curious too. Here is this tiny rogue girl going up against the Alpha twice her size, and she is holding her own.

I grab her by her shoulder and throw her down in front of me. Thinking she will stay down I let out a sigh, but she springs back up and kicks my right in the chest. How on earth did she kick that high and hard? As I stumble back, she runs up and punches me in my chest. I grab her and toss her down again. She rolls out and comes at me again in a low run. I to grab her before she can strike me again, but she slips down into a slide, like a baseball player going for home plate. As she slides under me, she reaches up and punches me in the shin. Shit that hurt!

The warriors start to cheer me on yelling “get her Alpha.” Their calls only make her more determined though. She round house kicks me in the side. I need to finish this. She throws another punch, and this time I catch her fist. I pick her up and tackle her to the ground. In this position I have the upper hand. She looks at me with her endless black pool eyes... and kisses me! A little taken back, I let my guard down. Taking advantage of my distraction, she wraps one of her legs around mine, and reaching around my neck, she grabs my collar bone for leverage. Then she pushes up with her other arm and leg, flipping us over. Now she has me pinned. She kisses me again and whispers “not so tough now, are you? I told you couldn’t keep up.” She plants another kiss on my mouth, and this time I grab her by the neck and flip her on her back. I roll on top of her and kiss her passionately. I only break away when I hear the warriors around us whooping and hollering.

I pull myself up and help her up as well. Both of us are covered, head to toe, in mud. I yell at the warriors standing watch to get back to their posts. As we walk back to the pack house. We look at each other and laugh at how ridiculous we look. As we step inside, we are stopped by my mother. Here we go, I think to myself. I just know I am in for an earful.
