It’s been two weeks of daily training. Seleste and I train together in the morning and train with the warriors in the evening. We also made training mandatory for all shifted pack members who were not pregnant, ill, or elderly. Some of the older wolves have also elected to take part in the training, although it is not mandatory for them. We want to make sure our pack is fully protected, no matter what happens or who attacks us. Since our pack is protected from dark magic, as long as we are on pack grounds, our members will be able to protect the pack.
Madam Iris arrived last week and started training with us as well. I got to see a whole new side of my mate when she trained with Madam Iris. They were not exaggerating about how bad ass my mate is. Seleste finally had the opportunity to train using her elements. She is the only one since the Originals who can control and use all elements and sometimes at the same time. I can tell Madam Iris is impressed. Alpha Clark told me about her abilities, but there is nothing like seeing it for myself.
Her warriors are also very well trained. The ones from her pack are much more trained than the others. Warrior Peace was training to be an Elite Warrior at her old pack. Seleste and her father were the ultimate Gammas. Their pack is far more advanced fighters than any I have seen in a long time. The rest of her team and inner circle are all deadly in their own way. Watching them train together is an experience. The two vampire warriors are amazing. They keep the other warriors on their toes. They can teleport to different locations during the training and attack from different angles. This has taught her warriors to depend on all of their senses so they can detect the impending attacks. There is a certain energy that teleporting or the blinking that magic users give off as they move though time and space. Seleste warriors have practiced and learned how to sense that energy and prepare to counter the attack.
The bears on her team are a force of their own. They have an incredible amount of strength and skills. They are unmatched in hand-to-hand combat, but their weapons are the things that dreams are made of. I can’t even begin to understand the weapons they have, but they can immobilize even the strongest opponent. They were able to briefly neutralize a magical attack from Madam Iris during training. That was indeed something to behold. I was told that Alpha Keenai will have some of these weapons available for all the packs soon. The bears that are assigned to the regions will train warriors to use these weapons. Only a couple of Elite Warriors will have access to the weapons.
I definitely have to ask Seleste to revise my pack training when this is over. My elite warriors and special operatives are already adapting to the training they had with her warriors. My senior trainers have been learning from Warrior Peace and his mate. The one thing I learned about her mated warriors is that their mates are just as deadly as they are. They train just as hard as their mates and can fight by their sides. I discover that not all the mates were warriors before mating, but all wanted to learn to fight for the kingdom. Seleste took them under her wing and trained them personally. Now they are at the level of elite warriors in any pack.
The next thing I noticed is that Seleste and her team spend time in meditation almost daily. Seleste explained that meditation helps to center and recharge her energies and elements. For the warriors, meditation helps them to connect more closely with their wolves and enhances any special ability they have. Many of them tapped into their abilities through guided meditation. Seleste agreed to work with me and any of my pack members that are interested in learning deep meditation. Apparently, it is more than just sitting and thinking. I need to meditate whenever Seleste walks into the room. She has the presence to stand out in any environment. She is the most beautiful and naturally sexy shewolf I have ever seen. Every time she walks into the room, I want to drag her back to the bedroom. She has the kind of body that is made for love. Seleste is fit and muscular, but has nice feminine curbs in all the right places. She has the perfect hourglass figure. Her breast are the things I love; nice, just right and perky. Her waist is small, but her bottom is everything. Her bottom is nice and round, the kind that the rappers speak about. All I can say is my baby got back. I never knew I was a butt man until I saw hers. She puts Nikki and Kim to shame, and hers is all real. Forget J-lo, give me Seleste any day.
I am appreciating my mate more and more, not just for her fighting skills, but for her just being the person who she is. Seleste is beautiful inside and outside. The more time she spends with my pack, the more they love her. All the pups look up to her. Even my most hardened warriors have the utmost respect for her. My mother treats her like the daughter she always wanted. My father is picking up where Gamma True left off with being overprotective of her. I think every teenage male wolf has a crush on her and instead of being jealous, the teenage she-wolves want to be like her. Seleste is so genuine that even the ones who wanted the luna position stay in their places. Of course, after seeing Seleste training with me and the warriors, I think most of them are afraid to get on her bad side.
After we returned and everything settled down, a couple of the more desperate she-wolves showed up for training, wearing very little, trying to get male attention. Seleste asked them to go change into appropriate workout clothing. They initially refused. When I went to step in, Seleste stopped me and told them that they could wear what they wanted as long as they kept up. They all smirked like they had won that battled and paraded around during the warmup. Seleste warned them to take the warmup seriously because they would need it. Needless to say, they ignored her. Me and her warriors were getting pissed with the disrespect they were showing Seleste, but Seleste just smiled and told us to let her handle it. Let’s just say that once training started in honest, we were all paying a price. Seleste was merciless. From that point on, everyone came to training dressed appropriately and ready to train.
When it came to her sparring with me, Seleste was true to her word. She did not go easy on me. I learned quickly that Seleste earned her reputation. I walked to the training circle thinking I was going to go easy on her. Onyx kept telling me to take it seriously.
“Don’t underestimate mate. Dummy.”
“I’m not Onyx. I just don’t want to hurt her.”
“You can’t hurt her. She truly is awesome. Just give it your best or we will get embarrassed, and she will be mad at us. Don’t mess this up for us. She is starting to like us again.”
“Whatever Onyx. I am not going to hurt her.”
“I thought you agreed to listen to me more.” Ugh! I can’t deal with you. Don’t whine to me when she wipes the ground with you.”
Onyx ended our conversation and went to the corner of my mind, and covered his eyes with his paws. I can’t believe he is being such a drama king right now.
I hear the warriors gather around. Warrior Peace says 30 and the others start saying numbers as well. I figured out they were calling out time frames. The longest time was 3 minutes. Everyone laughed at that. My special force warriors came on the field and joined in the fun. Seleste walks out after hearing the warriors. She looks at Warrior Peace and winks at him.
“Are you ready, Mr. Alpha? Remember out here, we are not mates. We are warriors, so bring your A game because I won’t hold back on you.” Seleste said with a smirk.
We get in the circle and I half ass attack Seleste. Before I know what hit, I’m looking up at her from the ground.
“I told you the bring you’re a game and you come with that. I don’t have time to waste on you not taking our training serious. I’m done training for today. Call me back when you are ready to take this serious.” Seleste said, and walked off in a huff.
“I told you she would get pissed at us, well, you. See what happens when you don’t listen to me?” Onyx said.
“Oh, shut it.”
“Humans, they just don’t listen.”
Of course, Onyx just had to get the last word in. He is such a drama king.
“I heard that.”
“You were supposed to.” I said, and blocked him this time. The look on his wolf face is hilarious.
“Well Alpha Blake, welcome to the training whirlwind known as Seleste.” Warrior Peace said as he helped me up.
“Um Warrior Peace, what was all the time frame you all were calling out?”
“Oh, we were betting on how long you would last against Seleste. I won with 30 seconds.” Warrior Peace said while laughing.
“What made you say 30 seconds?” Another Warrior asked.
“It was an easy guess. You remember how we were the first time we trained with our mates? We were worried about hurting them, not knowing that they had already been training with Seleste. And what happened? We all got our asses handed to us very quickly.” Warrior Peace said while still laughing.
I can see that all the other mated warriors were remembering the same thing happening to them.
“Needless to say, Alpha, our females are true warriors. Seleste being the ultimate war machine. Even before she gained her protector power, she was a force no one could contain. She has been training the pack since she was 12 years old and was pretty much undefeated. I think the only one that can truly win against her is Gamma True.” Warrior Peace says, then pauses.
“Alpha Blake, if I might be so bold, I would suggest you get the stick out of your ass and take this training serious. We need our leaders to be on one accord and together in this battle.”
“You are right Warrior Peace. I really messed that one up, but I know better now.”
I left the training field to go find Seleste. I apologized and let her know that I will take all of our training seriously from this point forward.
“I’m sorry, baby. I just didn’t want to hurt you.”
Seleste stood up and back a short distance from me.
“You wouldn’t be able to hurt me, honey. You couldn’t even get close to me if I didn’t let you.” Seleste said, and a spiral of wind and fire surrounded her.
All I could do was just stand there in awe of my beautiful mate. That was the most frightening thing I have ever seen, but I am so turned on by her show of power. We need to get a little private time. Something special needs to be planned for us. I am looking forward to being able to make love to her again. I know she feels the same way, but I still need to prove myself fully to her. She is worth it.
The next time we sparred together, I came at her full steam and she still got me down embarrassingly fast. It was like she could predict my every move and counter it before I even made it.
After the second time sparring, Seleste realized that I finally saw her for the warrior she was and changed her strategy with me. I can say that I am much better now. After the first week, I was a real workout for her. I noticed that the closer she and I get, the stronger we both get. Although I do not share her powers with her, I am becoming more resistant to magical weapons. Madam Iris is greatly pleased with this development. She has informed the king of this. I think that makes everyone else breathe a little easier with Seleste and I both being able to fight against dark magic.
We continued to train hard for the rest of the month. Seleste and I grew closer, emotionally and spiritually. We are finally at a place where we can get closer physically outside of training. I have big plans for us tonight. My mother has helped me plan a night out that will be unforgettable. Since things have been heating up around us, it is not advisable for us to travel anywhere are to really do anything off the pack lands, so I asked my mom to help me set up a mini staycation spot in our secret valley. It is far enough away to give us privacy, scenic enough to be romantic, but close enough to the pack for protection, both theirs and ours.
