(Anna)

Hitting the grass covered ground the air is whooshed from me as Mac leans over me with a hand on either side of my head, he just smirks down at me at his third victory in a row.

“Get off me,” I grunt as I push at his arm, he takes his time but he eventually rolls to the side and jumps to his feet. He’s a lot more graceful than I would think a man of his size could manage.

“You’re not focusing.” Ocean calls from her deck chair sat under the shade of a tree, wiping my hands on my leggings. I turn to her and just glare at her.

“Maybe if you gave me a little more instruction?” She’s being

infuriatingly vague on how I’m actually meant to stop Mac from attacking me. “This is pointless anyway, why learn to fight when I’ve already lost?”

“Oh, so you plan on just rolling over and letting Faye have your mate?” Ocean goads from her shaded spot, “I didn’t take you for a push over Anna.” I feel my nostrils flare as she makes my anger spi ke, “that feeling you have right now? That anger, focus on Mac. Give him all of your rage Anna.”

I do as she says, I think of all the things that have made me angry in the last few months, I let it fester in my stomach like a ball of yarn, I keep winding and winding until I can feel it pushing against my throat. Looking at Mac I clench my fists at my side and narrow my eyes, I picture what he would look like with this emotion on him, surrounded in the anger yarn and unable to breath. If he suffocated on it like I did

:very single day. Mac is always so laid back and chilled that it’s Ictually a struggle to see what he would look like with this kind of inger inside of him.

‘Stop, Anna please.” Blinking my eyes I realise Mac is on his knees. and is holding his hand out to me, he’s begging me to stop but I don’t know what I’m doing. It feels like there is a string connecting us together and the more I pull the tighter it becomes and the more pain. Mac’s face shows.

“That’s enough Anna, reign it in.” I hear Ocean say from miles away from me. I try to pull the string back to me but nothing seems to work, it just gets tighter and tighter as Mac gets closer and closer to the floor. It isn’t until Mac starts to howl in pain that the connection snaps and I think it’s more because I am shocked that I made that noise leave his mouth. He sounds like a wounded animal as he lays in the grass clutching at his head.

“Mac!” I shout before running over to him and dropping to my knees, “I’m sorry. I’m so sorry, are you ok?” Mac just gasps for breath as he grips his stomach doubled over in pain, there is sweat covering his brow and his whole face and n*eck are bright red..

“Thought you.” Mac gulps in air as he sits back on his as s and wipes at his face. “I thought you couldn’t fight?” I just stare in shock at this six foot odd man I managed to bring to his knee in a few seconds.

“I’m sorry Mac,” I’ve never wanted to hurt anyone and not like that at least, it was awful to watch and I can’t imagine ever wanting to do it again.

“And now we practise until it becomes as easy as breathing. Soon you will be able to control the emotions of those around you.” Ocean says walking over to us, today she has a black cane to help her walk and she seems slower on her feet than yesterday.

I get off the floor and leave Mac sitting in the grass to pull himself together. We are in a small clearing so it’s not long before I am standing in front of Ocean. Looking her straight in the eye I see they are not as kind looking as they were yesterday, they have lost some of the gentleness they held. I don’t know if it was always there and I was just blind to it but this woman is not as sweet and innocent as she would like people to believe.

“I won’t ever do that again.” I tell her in a stern voice, “that was horrific. I have been through so much trauma in my life, I won’t push it onto someone else. I lived it, that’s enough hurt for this world.”

“Not even to get your mate back? Your son?” I pause as she asks me this, it takes me a few seconds before I’m shaking my head.

“Not even for them, no one deserves this level of pain.” I tell her truthfully, sure I might day dream about Faye feeling what I feel but after seeing what I did to Mac I just can’t bring myself to actually do it.

“Then I’m wasting what little time I have left,” she nods at me with a disappointed look before turning and walking back towards her little cabin.

“It’s not like you’re dying right this second,” I yell after her slowly retreating back, I turn back to Mac and quickly head back to him and offer my hand to help him to his feet. “She is not a nice lady, I know she’s Darryl’s grandmother or whatever but honestly… who would willingly do this to another person.” I say to Mac as I lean down to help him get the grass from the back of his pants. It takes me a solid minute before I realise I’m just stroking this man’s as s, I quickly sn atch my hand back and look up at his face and see a very smug face.

“Apparently Fraction’s warning was needed,” he says with a wink.

“Don’t even think about it. I really am sorry Mac, I didn’t realise I had that inside of me.” I tell him truthfully.

“Stop saying sorry, you were just following the old bats advice. So are we actually going to do some normal training now you have realised Omega fighting ain’t for you?” I nod my head at him before narrowing my eyes at him.

“You knew what she could do, what I could do?” I ask him while poking him in the chest, he rubs the spot I poke faking that I actually hurt him.

“Would you have believed me? Why do you think we keep her hidden in the woods? She might be Pack and even family but we all know what she’s capable of.” Mac tells me as he starts to walk the opposite direction to Ocean.

I stand and think for a second before jogging up to Mac and matching my stride to his, we head into the woods and I think we are heading

back to the Pack house.

“If Darryl knew what she was capable of, why did he send me to her?” I ask him once I’ve caught up to him.

“I think he was trying to help, he might not agree with Ocean’s method but it gets results. Although I disagree, I think with some proper training we can get you into fighting shape. Maybe not for a full challenge but we can cross that bridge when we get to it.” Mac tells me as he turns a little and leads us onto a dirt path much like the one I walked on to get to Ocean’s little cabin.

“To be honest,” I suck in a breath as I suddenly feel very vulnerable. I stop walking and it takes Mac a second to realise and turn to face me. “I just want to be able to defend myself, Mac. I want to stop relying on those around me, if any of this has taught me anything it’s that I can’t rely on the people around me. Not even my mate.”

“Anna…” Mac says, walking towards me.

“No,” I hold my hand up, making him stop. “Don’t tell me it’s going to be ok or that Fraction will replace a way to fix it. It’s in my hands now, it’s my life and I need to replace a way to fix this problem myself. I need to replace a way back to my son and when I do?” I pour every ounce of my anger and sadness into my voice so he knows how serious I am, “I’m going to scoop him up and run as far and as fast as I can from anything Pack related.”
