Chapter 13
Jaxon’s POV
I look across the arena. And the introverted wolf that hid in a hoodie and baggy track pants is gone. In her place is a fierce warrior. I was in the crowd when she was rejected. My cousins had stepped in. I couldn’t figure out why at first till 1 talked to them. What came out of that conversation was that this was a she–wolf who deserved better than what she had been handed. As I look at her now I realize that what I had seen before was a she–wolf hiding who she truly
was. This magnificent fighter before me was the real wolf.
She was going to kick my ass. But it would be my honor to battle her. She had a fierce aura that screamed Alpha. After this, I hope she will accept my pledge of friendship. The bell dings and the battle begins. It was over quickly, she had been fierce. Taking no quarter, proving she was the best fighter. And I felt
joy at having been defeated by such a strong person right before I blacked out.

Sarah’s POV
My blood is boiling with fury. How dare she show me up. How was she in the Alpha class? How dare she try to steal Matt from me. That little bitch would pay. My parents were mad at me. They wanted to know why I wasn’t in at least the elite fighter. Uh hello, I didn’t want to break my nails, and all the sweating and running, ugh, so not pretty. Also, I didn’t like pain. I loved to give it though. And I would give it to her.
I’ll have Daddy chain her to the post in the basement again. By the time I’m through with her, she’ll never think to show me up again. And how dare she change her name without permission. Didn’t she know that she humiliated our parents publicly? They were also going to make her regret her decision. I hope they kicked her out. After I’m done with her first though.
I look for Matt in the stands. But he’s not looking at me. Serenity had caved in his face, I knew from experience that hurt, but he healed faster than I did, so all that was left was a lot of really ugly bruising. I had been in pain and unable to show my face for three days. I try to get his attention but he’s still not looking at me. He’s looking at the billboard with my sister’s picture.
The slut was practically naked. The stupid bitch wasn’t even covering up her horrible dark skin. And that wolf of hers, what was with those markings, she was grotesquely huge, too big for a she–wolf. God, she needs to lose weight. And someone should tell her a snarl was horribly unattractive. But Matt is looking at that picture with sadness and longing.
What! No! You’re mine! You already rejected her, and she rejected you back! I–look back at the picture. That slut! She’s still trying to take Matt from me! No! I won’t allow it. That bitch should go to hell! This time I’ll make sure she has scars. I’m going to carve her face with a silver knife. I’ll put silver in the tails of the whip before I whip her till her back and front are nothing but raw meat!!!!
My fury grows as I watch her descend into the arena, I look and sure enough Matt’s eyes are still on her, he’s looking at her like he wants her. This only makes me seethe. My fists clenched so tight my nails were drawing blood. She’ll pay, oh she. will. pay!!!! I look for my parents not bothering to watch the
fight.
My mom and dad are arguing with each other. She even made my parents forget about me. Me! I’m their Princess! The only one that matters. Before long the battle is over and she’s declared the winner. What?! I look up at the board and there it is. The bitch!!!

Matt’s POV
I fucked up. I rejected my mate. I look at the picture on the board. And I no longer see anything ugly about her. All of Sarah’s words fall away. My wolf is silent inside my head. He never liked Sarah, he never was going to accept her, But I had ignored him in the wake of what I thought was good sex. And all the things Sarah told me. But I should have been thinking with my head and listening to my wolf instead of following my dick. All the times my wolf told me not to listen to her. I should have listened. Now I’ve rejected my mate for someone, I now know was not worth it.
