Avery stoped punching and I saw her looking around the field at the warriors training.
"Oh no..." If she started comparing herself to them, she would feel useless. There was no comparison between human and werewolf strength.
I heard Alex explain that to her. Thank the goddess. Wait, what the hell is that?
' Something is wrong'
I know Blade, I can see that
'What's going on with her?'
I'm not sure
'Is it him?'
Every time me or Blade thought about the wizard doing all this shit, we both began to lose it. Blade was growling in the back of my mind, ready to fight. But I think this was him.
No. That's impossible. The barrier was still up and no wizard had the strength to break through it this fast. It was something else.
Avery's eyes were different. They looked lifeless. She was getting mad and frustrated but not of the normal kind. This was something else. Was she really that bothered by not being able to fight?
I watched as she threw the boxing gloves on the ground.
" What do you think you're doing, Avery?"
"I'm leaving, this is pointless."
"Put the gloves back on."
"Why? So that I can continue throwing weak punches and embarrass myself?"
"Avery, nobody learns right away. It takes practice and with practice you're going to do great. You'll become stronger. You can't just give up after twenty minutes."
"Watch me."
I saw Alex following Avery and grabbing her arm. What the fuck was going on?
Avery was facing me a second ago but she acted like she didn't even see me. Was she that mad at Alex that she would ignore me?
"Why do you care so much?" Avery yelled.
"Because i care about you!"
"Well maybe you should stop!" What the fuck?
"What the hell is going on with you?"
"I don't know!"
Avery walked right past me. Like I didn't exist. That shit hurt.
"Avery!"
"AVERY!"
I yelled after her but she didn't react. She didn't stop or turn around or say anything. She kept on walking. I turned around to face Alex.
"What the fuck was that?"
"I don't know man. But something is up with her. You should call Natasha." Alex said. Maybe he was right, maybe I should call her so she can make sure that her spell worked.
I was starting to get annoyed. First my mate ignored the shit out of me and now the witch may have fucked up the spell.
"Maybe she's just mad. I'll give her some time to relax before I call Natasha."
"James," Alex said as he laid a hand on my shoulder.
" She walked past you like you were invisible. Human or not, you two are mates, it doesn't ad up."
Alex was right. It didn't make sense. She shouldn't have been able to walk past me without at least throwing me a glance.
"I'll giver her some time." I said with a stern voice indicating that it wasn't up for discussion. Whatever it was that was going on, time couldn't possibly make it worse. Alex raised his hands in surrender and then we headed back to the house.
Me, Alex and Damon decided too play some pool before dinner. Amber was sitting by the bookshelf trying to find a book about martial arts that she read when she was younger, she wanted to give it to Avery after we had explained what happened earlier out on the field.
"Dude, you do know you are supposed to actually hit the ball, right?" Alex told Damon who was losing.
" If you don't shut up I'll start aiming the stick at two other balls!" Damon yelled back. Alex backed away with a frown on his face, his hands covering his package and I broke out in laughter.
"You both suck. Now Damon hurry up and loose so I can play." I told him as I patted his back.
"Fuck of." Damon said. He aimed the stick at the the striped ball and took a shot. It didn't go in, it did however hit another ball that bounced on the 88 ball and that went in.
Me and Alex both pursed our lips so we didn't laugh. Damon looked about ready to hit us, not that he would have had a chance but even though I was the Alpha, even I had to admit that Damon's punches hurt like a bitch.
"Fuck this shit." Damon threw the stick on the ground and walked towards the hall.
"Oh come on! Nobody likes a sore loser!" Alex yelled after him.
"How can you guys go from being all strong and tough to five years old?" Amber asked with a finger on her chin.
Alex flipped her the finger Amber stuck her tongue out.
Just as Damon was about to exit the room a very angry mate of mine came running in, looking mad as hell, with a silver dagger in her hand.
"YOU SLEPT WITH HER!"
