Chapter 1

Jasmine's POV

Sweat dripped from my hairline down to my nose to my jaw then finally reaching the floor of the training room I was currently sprawled on.

My trainer gave me a light nudge with his leg to my side an indication that I needed to get my lazy ass of the floor I groaned as a reply. My whole body was aching but I grudgingly got on my knees, stumbled a bit but finally got on my aching soles.

Apparently these training is much needed I might have a 'killer body' as guys around the pack like to say but all I know is that I am terribly out of shape and my defense skills have enough flaws to have massive holes in them, so I do this training about two to three times in a week with Dwayne one of the best fighters in the pack but I suspect he's going easy on me because of how bad I am.

When I first started it was beyond horrible, I got multiple trips to the pack emergency room and everybody in the pack found it amusing that I tripped over my own feet and Dwayne hadn't even laid a finger on me but over the past few months I have gotten better even though Dwayne doesn't want to admit it.

My asshole of a trainer had an amused grin on his face that I oh so desperately wanted to wipe off with my fists. I got into my sparring pace as soon as he got into his this time I wasn't going down first.

We started circling each other and then he threw the first punch in which I effortlessly ducked , then I tried grabbing his arm to twist it but I wasn't getting a reaction from him except his stupid smirk so I quickly untangled my arm from his.

"I think I definitely thought you better than that " Dwanye said. "I mean do you think you could beat me with a twist to my arm".

"Nope but I knew I could get you talking so I could distract you" I said.

"Wait what?"

The asshole didn't even know what hit him while he was busy adding to his already inflated ego I already targeted where I was going to hit him.

My first move was to sweep him off his feet, then I delivered my heel to his stomach while he was a little bit surprised to do anything then I slammed hard on him with my elbow right on his chest by now he was already trying to pry me off him but I still had the upper hand and I intended to show him that so I grabbed his left leg and his right arm and I twisted it to an odd looking angle. I then took his arm and leg to their limit while he had a distorted look on his face seconds later he tapped out signaling that he surrendered. I untangled my limbs from him as I stood up with a victorious smile etched on my face.

"Goodness I didn't train you to break my bones" he said with a sour look on his face but still on the floor.

"Ha! next time do not underestimate the power of a simple twist"

"Yada yada whatever "

"Anyways I've got to head back to my lovely family they should be expecting me back anytime soon "I said with a smile

"See you Wednesday then" Dwayne said limping away.

I go to the locker room for girls which smelt like rotten flowers due to the different smells and brand of perfumes and deodorants girls in my pack seem to be a sucker for and also my trusty nose which never fails me.

Can you believe people think I can smell emotions, not to brag but a few decades back when we captured werewolves the pack guards always called me to sniff out the truth from the prisoners. I smile and shake my head at the thought. But over the years I think I lost that ability so now I am just a normal wolf with the normal good sense of smell. I opened my locker to retrieve the items I brought here earlier I check my phone for any missed texts or calls, I find a few calls from my mum a few minutes ago and a text saying be back home early from dinner I reply with a quick be there in ten. I close my locker and head out of the locker room.

"Hey jazzy bear "I winced at the weird nickname and she seemed to notice but she laughed it off.

Emma daughter of Beta Kyan greeted me as I made my way out of the building. I responded by greeting her and asking about her family, a few chit chat here and there and then I told her that I needed to get home before my mother had my head in one of her cooking pots.

We both laughed it off and headed our separate ways promising to call each other to catch up on the latest pack news.

My she wolf Athena walks around in the space she created in my mind as if she's worried about something I decide to leave that for now to get back to it later in the comfort of my overly comfy bed.

I sigh dreamily with that thought in mind. A few blocks away from the house I can already hear my brothers bickering, they bicker like an old couple most of the times even my parents just watch them in awe. Reaching the porch I walk across it to the open the door but someone from inside beats me to it no doubt my mom

"Hi Mom" I say as I greet her while fluttering my lashes and giving her the best puppy eyes I could muster. She looks at me with something I can't read; damn she's really good at hiding whatever is going in her mind.

"Really young lady, you are five minutes late and don't even think those beautiful green eyes of yours will work on me this time". Gosh only my Mom would still be mad at you and still complement you. I roll my eyes at her to which she gives me a playful glare.

"Damn Arianna leave the girl alone and let's have dinner" My Dad shouts from inside the house.

"But Chris she came home late" she whines to my Dad.

"Five minutes late honey please just brush it off this time you can do whatever you want some other time I'm starving".

She huffs and leaves the doorway allowing me to enter. But she gives me the eyes that say it is not yet over.

I groan silently and just then I know I am game for my Mom and the vegetables or greens she is going to stuff into me tonight even though she knows I hate them very much.
