"Don't get emotionally carried away. When you are angry, you lose focus, and it's easy to beat you. You have to focus on your opponent study him," he said thoughtfully.
Our bodies were so close, I could smell his vanilla scent, and I lost control.
I felt aroused to have him so close to me, I could feel something hard touching near my entrance, and that made me even more excited; I gazed at Leonardo, and his eyes turned a deep glossy black.
His wolf was trying to take control, he brought his lips close to my neck, and for an instant, I panicked that my bracelet was no longer working.
"What do you have that I go crazy when I'm near you, that my wolf wants to take control, I want you, I want to possess you," he said as he kissed me on my neck, and I moaned with pleasure.
"Leonardo, we are in the training field. Everyone is staring at us," I said, and that was enough for his eyes to return to their natural green color with flashes of blue.


Aurora Monetti is a she-wolf born with extraordinary abilities, desired by all the alphas for her ability to become one of the strongest Luna ever. Her father and brother will send her away to protect her, and when she is 18, she will return home to fulfill her destiny.
