We collapse, her laying on top of me, catching our breath. I wrap my arms around her as our breathing comes back to normal. “I really don’t think I can choose a favorite position. That one was fun too.” Says my sexy mate. She kisses. my chest, looking up at me. “I like being in control.”

I burst out laughing before rolling us onto our side and curling her up against me. “Of course you do, little Alpha.” I say, kissing the top of her head, before we drift off to sleep.

The next day, Rik and Liam want to assess Grace’s fighting skills. “So, here’s the thing.” I say, knowing Grace has no fighting skills and feeling the need to defend her. “She was raised as a human. She hasn’t been–trained.‘

“That may be true, but Maia has the knowledge of not just her, but also Clint. Clint was a great warrior. You should be able to tap into that knowledge, Grace.”

“Knowledge is one thing, Rik. But you’re talking about someone that doesn’t have the muscle memory, or the physical strength yet. She will, but she’s not there yet.”

“I think you are underestimating her genetics. She’s an Alpha and on top of that, she’s a Guardian. Let’s just give it a try and see if she can tap into her power.”

I look at Grace, who shrugs. “Worst case scenario, I suck and I’m not worse off than I think I am.” She says, laughing.

“Liam, you’re great at pissing off Guardians and helping them tap into their strength. Why don’t you take this one.” Rik says, with a smirk on his face. I hear Angel scoff behind me.

Liam just shrugs. “He’s not wrong.” He says before taking a defensive stance. against Grace.

“Okay, show me what you’ve got Grace.” He says, waiting for her to strike out.

She looks at me and then back at him. “You want me to hit you?”

He nods. “Let’s see how strong you are.”

She looks at me again before looking back at Liam. “But I don’t want to hit you.”

Out of the corner of my eye, I see Rik put his hands on his hips and narrow his eyes, like he’s waiting for something to happen. I feel like I should know what’s about to happen and I’m about to go up to Rik and ask when Liam speaks.

“Are you sure you don’t want to hit me?” He asks, tauntingly.

“Yeah.” She says, staring at him.

“What if I told you that I beat the shit out of your mate every day for over six months?”

I see Grace tense up. I don’t think this is a good idea.

“Did he tell you that I’d beat him so badly that he couldn’t even stand when I was done?”

Grace is growling now.

“Liam.” I say, trying to impart his need to be cautious. They did just state that she’s an Alpha and a Guardian. She’s going to be stronger than Liam if he pushes her too hard.

He starts bouncing around on his feet, dancing toward her. “And I enjoyed every minute of it.”

He hasn’t taken his eyes off of her, but it’s not going to matter. I can see the air around her starting to shiver. Whatever power they wanted her to tap into, she’s tapping into it, and it’s not going to be good for Liam.

I feel rather than see Angel standing up, moving closer as Liam continues. ” Maybe I’ll take him back down there and….”

Whatever else he planned to say, was cut off as Grace went flying at him. She’s fast and her punches and kicks are coming at a speed I didn’t know was possible. Her fist connects with Liam’s stomach, and I hear him grunt as he shifts and dodges out of her way. I can see that he’s using every bit of his strength and training to keep from being injured by her onslaught of anger.

“You stay the fuck away from my mate. I will end you.” Grace screams and in an instant, Angel is in front of Liam, her arms flying out on either side of her. I have a moment to feel the power surge that pushes me backward, nearly off my feet before watching as the wave of energy hits the forest line and the trees shake and creak from the pressure.
