Chapter 11

I leave the club and head back to the packhouse. The entire way home, I try to think of a way to fix this. It never occurred to me that Cara Nelson was my mystery girl. In my mind, Cara was a shy, reclusive girl that spent all her time looking after her father. Why hadn't I put two and two together and realized that as a Guardian and a daughter of not one but two Guardians she would be one hell of a badass?!

And how had I never noticed her before? She and I are the same age. We must have been in the same class our entire life and I'd only just noticed her a few days ago. Of course, she wasn't one of the flock that was constantly surrounding me, seeking my favor, trying to get in my bed. No, she'd obviously saved her favors for Liam. And he'd happily accepted what she was willing to give him.

Kai snarled in my head. 'She ours, not his.' I was in total agreement.

When we reached the packhouse, I didn't even go inside. Instead I ran to the tree line and without waiting to strip, shifted into my wolf form. I let Kai take' over and we headed to the Nelson's home. I opened my mind-link and listened to my patrols. They only patrolled the periphery around Cara's home, so I was clear. No one would see me.

Their house was about 5 miles from the packhouse. I slow as I approach. I can smell her scent around the house. It looks like they have their own obstacle course, weird jungle gym looking thing and weight training area set up in the back of their house. There was another structure not far from the house and I wondered if that was an indoor training area. Well, this would explain why I'd never seen her at training. Her father was apparently training her.
