blocked my path. Watch. You need to learn how
to take down a buck first.
    Matt snapped at the buck’s heels and Koda
grabbed onto the distracted buck’s throat. In only a few seconds
they’d killed the buck. Ares trotted over and started eating. I sat
down beside Matt and Koda who were sitting a few feet away.
    Ares finished and looked at us. Artemis
eats next. Matt growled and Ares growled back, his lips pulling
up in a menacing snarl. I’m alpha. I decide when my mate eats.
She eats after me. You and Koda decide who eats after that.
    Matt stopped growling and then snorted in
irritation. I trotted forward and took a bite out of the deer. It’s delicious! It took only a minute for me to fill up on
the deer. I licked my muzzle clean and trotted over to Ares who was
licking one of his paws clean. That was great.
    Ares licked my cheek. Glad you like
it.
    Matt whined. There’s another herd up
ahead.
    Ares nodded his head once. Let’s go. This
time, I take down the buck.
    Koda, Matt and Ares took off running before
I could react. I watched as Ares ran, his muscles stretching and
his fur pressed against his body. The buck lifted his head from the
grass he was eating and then Ares was on him. I walked slowly
towards the rest of my pack and laid down in a sunny spot a few
yards away from the dead buck. That was great. I said
quietly as Ares ate.
    Koda snorted. You’re easily
impressed.
    Ares finished eating and nodded at me.
    I’m full. Thanks. I lifted my lips in
a grin and rolled on to my back so the sun could warm my stomach. We should have done this sooner.
    Ares laid down, placing his head on top of
my stomach. I’ll make sure we take more time to hunt
together.
    Matt walked towards us and I felt uneasy,
not wanting to be on my back anymore. I rolled over and sat up next
to Ares. Matt looked at me quizzically, but didn’t say anything as
he sat down and waited for Koda to finish.
    I was still bothered by Matt’s lie and in
wolf form I especially felt awkward around him. Ares draped his
head across my neck and sighed in contentment. How are you
feeling today?
    Fine, thank you. I said quietly as I
enjoyed his warmth and the smell of his fur. I noticed another
slightly different, but familiar smell underneath Ares’ fur,
against his skin, but I couldn’t place it.
    Koda trotted over, licking his lips clean. Okay, I’m done.
    Ares pulled away and we all ran back towards
the house. I changed forms at the door and ran inside and up the
stairs. I stepped into the bedroom and stopped in my tracks. A
slim, beautiful black haired woman was lying, naked on the bed.
    She sat up when I walked in and glared at
me. “Where is Ares?”
    I growled loudly and squatted down,
preparing to attack. “Why are you on my bed, naked?”
    She stood up and glared at me. “I do not
need to speak to you, girl . I came to see the Prince. Now,
step aside.”
    Ares walked up behind me and stared in shock
at the woman. “Natasha? What are you doing here?”
    She smiled seductively and posed against the
bed post. “I was waiting for you.”
    I growled again and Ares sighed. “Oh. I see.
Natasha, you need to leave.”
    Natasha’s beautiful smile wilted as she
looked from me to Ares. “You would reject me for this…this child ?”
    Koda walked up the stairs and pulled me
backwards, away from Natasha. Apparently he guessed I was about to
pounce on her.
    Ares took a step towards Natasha and
speaking in a soothing tone said, “You need to leave, Natasha. This
is not your home, nor is this your pack. Leave.”
    She stuck out her bottom lip in a pout and
took a step closer to Ares, running a fingertip over his chest.
“Ares, you know you would rather have me.”
    Anger boiled up in me, tinting my sight red.
I wanted to change forms, but I held the change and instead charged
at Natasha, knocking her to the ground and punching her in the face
before Ares pulled me away. “Let me go!” I yelled as I struggled to
attack her again.
    Koda knelt down
