A week in the sun for the human holiday Easter sounded like a great idea. we brought our family, Anastasia's family, Levi's family, Russell's family, plus mom and dad. They were overjoyed to have the whole family all in one location. We haven't had this much, everyonewas always busy. We had a villa for each family and the size of the family dictated which villa you got.
Mom and dad were in the smallest, we were in the next to largest with Ana in the largest. I was thankful for everyone dropping everything to come celebrate Grant. He was going to be 4 and when I told everyone his birthday wish was to be warm with family, they all joined in.
After everyone was settled in we had a great feast on the beach. The pups had so much fun with each other. The witches were making others float around. Everyone was giggling and squealing. It was good to have all of my siblings in one spot. Normally we scatter from Japan to Australia to the states and South Africa.
We decided to call Uncle Brown, GrandPa and Aunt Marguerite. Most of our Aunts and uncles are so much older that they don't give us much thought. Aunt Marguerite was different because she is the same age as Levi. My daughter was named after her because she was very close to us.
Our first night at the beach was a great success. I called the local pack to let them know we were in the area and Alpha Jeff Cocchi invited us to dinner on Sunday night. It would have been rude not to let them know their Royal family was in town. Plus it would be great to show some of our training techniques to our people in the South Pacific.
The swimming was so beautiful because the water was so clear. Raven swam like a little mermaid. She would take the pups out and teach them each something different. Lillian could swim very well and was learning to attack in human form under water. I enjoyed watching my water pups. I finally got into the water but they ganged up on me.
The Luna of the local pack called to say they would like us to join them for training on Monday. She needed to know how many would be in our party. Raven wants us to stay together so I told them around 35. She explained that the children could stay together in a dorm because they have watchers to care for them and each family could use a room. This would be better for the group.
She had 7 rooms ready for us along with one dorm. Samsin and the other nannies took the children to the dorm. We all snuggled down for a Sunday nap before dinner with the pack. Because they were entertaining both the former King and the current King of Wolves they really didn't know what to expect.
We decided to feed the children in the dorm. We would dress up for a formal dinner without crowns because we are on vacation with the family. Dinner was very nice and the pack held a ball afterwards that was worth the trip out to the pack lands.
Everyone was exhausted after dancing for hours but we all were looking forward to training together for the first time in years. I had not formally trained with Levi before but I felt like we all would be able to hold our own. We all are hybrids after all.
At 5:00 we came out to run, even Grant and Lillian. The kids stopped at 5 miles and most of the women tapped out at 10. Raven and the men pushed on to 12 miles. Most of their pack made around 8 miles, the Female Beta and Luna made 10. After the run came sparring. The teens together with my little ones, females and then males. Winner of teens would fight with the females and winner of the females would fight with the males.
Grant won the teen division and went on to beat 3 females. Raven had to fight Anastasia and they are both bulldog fighters. I was worried that my mate or my sister would be injured. I knew that my mate had some killer instincts and fighting qualities. My sister had tenacity and flexibility on her side. I had no way of knowing who would tap out or who the winner might be.
After about 30 minutes Raven won because she had given a round off kick to the jaw, we heard the bones crunch. Ana tapped out before getting the pack doctor to set the bone back. Painful but it would heal before dinner. This moved Raven up to the men's fights. Now I wanted her out. I didn't want to witness her fight men.
It took everything in my jealous body not to pull her out. She drew the 4th fight. This gave her a few minutes to rest. I rubbed her shoulders and asked her about any injuries. She just shook her head no. I knew she was in the zone. She and her wolf were watching her opponent walk around the fight ring. He was cocky and kept saying he would take down a queen today.
I didn't look his way because I knew Raven would be mad if I threatened him. I already had a nick name for him, Cocky Carl. I didn't know his name but it had to rhyme right? Raven was up next, I kissed her lips and sent her a mind link, "watch out for him to fight dirty, he may shift to his wolf. I will kill his ass if he hurts you."
The Alpha starts the fight with a howl. Raven let's him walk around her a couple of times while she watches him. I can tell she is evaluating him. He thinks he has this because she is a weak little woman. Little does he know she has alpha blood and has been training as top warrior for years. She will hand him his ass as well as a few more in rank.
He lunges for her right and swings with his left. She ducks down and moves behind him punching his ribs. Everyone hears the bone crunch. His face looks shocked. He is furious now, punching wild. He gets a tap on her arm but thats it. She is landing blow after blow. She jumps and flips, she swirls and splits, she is everywhere at once.
Everyone knows she has won but again he refuses to tap out. Then his wolf comes forward. I notice his claws, I see she noticed them too. Raven jumps on his back, pulls him down, flipping him on his stomach and catching his claw before he can do damage. Now she moves forward to the 8th round.
We watch wolf after wolf tap out. Raven will be fighting the Delta. The Delta has been watching Raven since her win. She has been purposely favoring her right side. She walks leaning right, she has been sitting more, and drinking water. She really wants it to come down to the 3 Alpha's. Alpha's don't normally fight because when we lose its bad for our pack. If she wants to win it will be a Beta she fights next.
The Alpha starts the fight and they are faster than the last fight. He tries to subdue her right away. She wasn't going down like that and flips out of his hold. She knocked his leg out from underneath him and pounced on him before he could roll out of the hold. She was doing a great job in battle. He was overwhelmed by her speed and agility. This fight lasted 35 minutes. I could see she was tired. I wasn't sure she could get him to tap out.
The Alpha told the Delta, "She has fought for hours and you have just started. Don't be a jackass like Dillon you are out of your league. Tap out so she can rest." He looks relieved and listened to his alpha.
The clock started to ring so load that I couldn't think straight. Raven stayed focused and won the fight. She went over to get water and rest. We watched the next 3 fights and the tap outs. Now she had to draw one of 3 names. The four left was Raven, My Beta, the pack Beta and the pack top warrior.
I was watching her face as she drew names. She held it up without looking. She drew the pack Beta Corey. Looking over at Cory I couldn't tell if he was nervous because of fighting a girl or because of fighting a strong Luna. I went over to Corey and had a little talk, "As long as you fight clean, and honest I won't retaliate. She will heal, but if you fight dirty, I will take you out."
His face went all pale, he swore to fight clean and keep his wolf in check. "I'll fight clean and tap out if necessary. I'm not going light just because she is a Luna.", He said. "I wouldn't want it any other way. ", I say as I walk away.
The fight starts with then watching each other close. He decides to take her out on the left side, assuming it was the weaker side. However she fights well with both sides. Ambidextrous so to speak. She dodges his punches and kicks. She isn't going to let him tire her our. She runs and leaps off of his chest while punching his ribs 3 times before landing clean with a finished back flip.
She dodges a lot but takes a few hits. I see the blood on her and panic. She showed me it wasn't her blood by ripping off the shirt. Now I can see the bruises on her body but so can her opponent. Now he is trying to hit those. She refuses to stop. I've got the luncheon set up so I don't have to explain her skills.
I just want to brag on my little mate. I know that several wolves are very excited about meeting her. After this fight all of the Kingdom will have heard of my Luna. She is able to take on a Beta and soon will be able to take most Alphas.
He is out for blood because he knows that he is going down. His fight has slowed down significantly. He is running out of steam. I hope he tapes out soon. He has caused significant damage to her internally, yet he hasn't gotten a face shot. She is faster and has more moves. She flips over him in a backflip that lands him 2 face shots. one to his right eye, the other his nose.
He taps out. She walks over and offers to shake hands. He starts to ignore her but when his alpha growls he immediately shakes her hand. She ask him if she can set his nose and he allows it. Very gently she sets his nose in place with a crunch. Then she says, "Good fight!".
"Yeah, your the best woman fighter I've ever seen and a Luna. Not to mention a Queen. I honestly thought you would be easy. I won't ever underestimate a woman again.", he says in a low voice. "Do you have a mate?", she asks. "Nah, not yet. I've been looking for her. Why do you ask?", he replied. "I think I know who she is. If I'm correct she's here with us.", Raven says.
"How do you know?", the Beta ask. "I'm the mother of all werewolves as the Queen. So, one of the duties of mother is knowing mates. I actually hope I'm right.", Raven says. She walks out of the ring and over to me where I embrace her, "Will I'm healing slowly and need to rest." I pick her up bridal style and take her to our room. I also give her a hot Epsom salt bath. Then I cuddle in bed with her so she can rest and heal.
That night at dinner she is fully recovered and ready to see if she is correct about Beta Corey's mate. Our nanny brings Selene over to Raven. She ask Raven what that smell is as she turns to see Corey. He growls, "Mate!" Then reaches for Priscilla. She too says, "Mate."
Raven smiles at them before telling Priscilla she is fired. I laugh at the look they both give her. "Well you can't stay here as Beta Female and work for the Royal Family. I just made it easier to be with your mate. Go get marked and mated with our blessing.", Raven says. "Thank you your majesty. ", they say in unison.
The next morning we return to our vacation and we return to our homes at the end of it. Once home I started thinking about the hunt.
