1 Chapter one

Enyo caught the three rouges and quickly ended their lives. She loved her life. She had a family that loved her. A pack that respected her. What more could she ask for? "Our mate." Her wolf Enya says. "We don't want a mate. Then we won't be free anymore." She tells her wolf. Her wolf whines a little but stays quiet. Enyo walks into her packhouse and is hit with the smell of pine trees and ginger. The smell was to die for.

Walking into her father's study covered in rouge blood she stops in her track as she looks at the man in front of her. He was perfect her wolf howled out in her head. She saw the man's eyes darken. "Mate." She shakes her head. "Nope, not happening." She says then turns and leaves. "Mate found us." Her wolf was on cloud nine. "He will change me. Turn me into something I'm not." She tries to tell her wolf.

As she gets ready to turn a corner someone grabs her arm. "Why do you run from me?" the man says. "Because I don't want a mate. I don't want or need someone telling me what I can and can't do. I'm a warrior a fighter. Not some doll you can put on a shelf." She yells out. "You will not talk to your king like that girl." She folded her arms over her chest. "Or what?" she challenged him. He lets out a growl and she just looks at him. "Was that it?" shaking her head she turns to leave. "you don't turn your back on me. I'm your king." She looks over her shoulder. "So, what you want a cookie?"

Hunter watched his mate walk away his wolf was telling him to go after her. "Ares we will get her soon. Let me go talk to her father." Hunter went back to her father's office. "She ran away from you, didn't she?" Hunter sat down. "Yes." The alpha stood up and laughed. "She has always said she didn't want a mate. She is a fighter. One of my best she has train every wolf here. Promise her you won't change her, and you will win her over. She is an incredibly challenging person. She has only brothers, so she was raised to fight like them." Hunter nods his head in understanding.

He left to go find his mate once more. Following her sent he found her training some warriors in hand to hand. He stood there and watched her for a while. She was fast and a great fighter. The man sparring with her was twice her size. He held his breath as the man came at her. She quickly dodged him and knocked him down. As he laid on the ground he started to laugh. "Damn Enyo I feel bad for whoever is your mate." She groaned but helped the man up.

Hunter walked down towards her and when her pack saw him, they all bowed. Enyo turned to see him and rolled her eyes as she folded her arms over her chest. "Can we talk?" he asked her. "Do I really have a choice?" she responded. "Of course, you do, but I think you will like what I have to say." She turns around and starts walking. "I doubt it but follow me." She said as she leads him to a quiet area. She turns to look at him.

Hunter can't help but stare at her she beautiful. "Look I understand you think I won't let you fight. As much as I wouldn't want you too. It is who you are. If you are willing to forgive me at times, I will let you keep fighting. We have other female warriors in my pack as well. Maybe you can help train as well. There will be times when I want to protect you. It is a habit. So just bear with me." She looks shocked at him then lets out a sigh. "When do I have to say goodbye to my pack?" she asked. "We will be leaving in three hours. I know it's not long. Please understand I'm king so I can't stay gone long."

Enyo walked into her packs house and found her father. "Enyo you have grown into a beautiful girl. Your mother would be proud of the woman you have become. Hunter is a good man. I have known his family for years. Try not to be too challenging for him." He lifts her chin and see's her tears. "I will miss you, daddy." He hugs her. "You can come visit whenever you want to okay." She turned to her brothers and hugged them. "make sure you whip them royal guards into shape sis." Her older brother tells her.

Enyo is in the car with Hunter looking out the window. "Enyo why don't you tell me about yourself." She turns to look at him. Damn, why did he have to look good? He had on a black suit his long brown hair was down. She saw he had two braids in his hair. It was a good look for him. "Well, I just turned 23 a week ago. My favorite color is blue. As you know I can fight well. I hate spiders. Oh, and my brothers will tell you I like to play pranks on them all the time."

Hunter smiled as he looks at her, she was tan from being outside all the time her hair was brown and long in the sunlight you could see the lighter colors as highlights. Her brown eyes were warm and enchanting. "Well I'm 24 and my favorite color is green. I can fight as well. I will kill any spider you see, and I have been known to play pranks on pack members." She laughed a little and it was heaven to him. They pull into a driveway and Enyo gets out. Her mouth drops. "Wow, it's beautiful." Hunter holds his hand out to her. When she takes it, they walk inside.
