Rosalie frowned as she stared out the window, the sky was a dark grey mixed with light grey, rain was pouring down, soaking the ground. It was a gloomy day for a gruesome challenge or challenges.

Dimitri had told her that if he beats all the alphas the males of the pack are allowed to challenge him for the title. It's the same for her, any female from the pack is allowed to challenge her for her title. She didn't like this, not one bit, but she had no choice.

She sighed again before getting up and making her way out of the room. She walked down the empty hall, her mind going crazy with thoughts of what could happen. Her wolf growled at the thought of losing everything she loves, this gave Rosalie a stronger urge to put everyone in their place. She's the alpha female of the pack, she shouldn't be scared of this.

She smiled when Dimitri's arms wrapped around her, sparks ignited at his touch.

"You seem angry." He whispered, kissing her on the neck.

Rosalie released a breath, "I'm going to be pissed if any female tries to take my title."

"The whole pack loves you, if anyone is going to try and take your title it'll be the females who want to screw me every day. Pretty sure they'll be running away if they saw how rough I am." He replied.

"What about you?" She asked softly.

He was silent for a moment, "You know many males in my pack think they're better than me. I'll have quite a few challenges today."

"You better win."

"I will."

The afternoon came quickly, but Rosalie was prepared. As the saying goes, ladies first, and that's exactly what is happening. The females will fight first.

Dimitri frowned as Nikki stood in the center of the large circle, she stood with pride, her eyes daring anyone to challenge her. Her eyes landed on his mate, they immediately narrowed and darkened with hatred.

Rosalie stopped and kissed him on the lips, he cupped her face.

"Be safe." He whispered before crushing his lips against her's.

They kissed for a while before parting for a breath, she smiled once more at him. She turned around and walked into the middle, glaring at Nikki.

Cheering echoed throughout the yard as the females stood on either side. Dimitri stood off to the side, his hands were clasped behind his back, his eyes were cold and his whole being demanding respect. He looked around before whistling, signaling for everyone to be quiet.

"Now, the rules." He stated.

"This is a fight to death, if Nikki wins then she will replace Rosalie as Luna of my pack and our packs will combine. She will also have to go against any female from my pack that challenges her after."

Growls emitted from the pack, they all had to hold themselves back from protecting their Luna. Rosalie stood tall, her eyes trained on Nikki, challenging her.

"If Rosalie wins she will remain my Luna and Nikki's pack will combine with my pack."

Dimitri looked between them, he gave one more worried look at Rosalie before sighing.

"Begin." He ordered.

Rosalie stood completely still, she loosened her muscles, prepared her body to dodge an attack. She watched as Nikki stood there too, studying her. She had to force herself not to smirk, she knew Nikki would eventually lose her patience.

Sure enough, a few seconds later the she-wolf growled loudly and sprinted towards her. As she went in for her first attack, Rosalie side-stepped her. Nikki barely caught her balance, but before she could turn around Rosalie already had her by the throat. Nikki twisted, trying to escape Rosalie's grip.

"Kill her." Her wolf growled.

Rosalie smirked, "No, I want to have fun first."

She threw Nikki across the yard as if she didn't weigh a pound. She then sprinted towards her at break neck speed, she grabbed Nikki by her throat again.

She tossed her once again, watching as she slammed into the ground. She didn't move, she stood there, allowing the wheezing woman to stand.

Nikki crawled to her feet, she turned around and glared at Rosalie. She spit the blood from her mouth and shifted.

Rosalie almost laughed at her, shaking her head, she shifted as well. She shook out her black fur and waited, giving her wolf partial control.

Nikki lunged at her first, but she once again missed. Rosalie then tackled her, pinning Nikki against there ground as they slid. She grabbed the light brown wolf by her leg and clamped her jaw shut.

Nikki howled in pain as the sound of a bone breaking sounded. Rosalie didn't hesitate to jump back on the she-wolf and grab her by the throat.

She was getting tired, she silently wished that the pregnancy wouldn't do this to her. But she was getting bored, she almost shook her head at how weak of a fighter Nikki was.

Without further hesitation, Rosalie closed her jaw on Nikki's throat. With a slight gurgled yelp, Nikki's eyes closed.

Rosalie released her and stepped away from Nikki's limp form. She shook her fur once again, growling in annoyance at the rain.

Dimitri walked up to her with a large smile on his face, he knelt before her, placing his hand on her head.

"Good job, baby girl." He whispered.

Rosalie wagged her tail and licked him on the cheek, causing him to laugh. He stood up and sighed.

"Would any other female challenge the Luna?" He bellowed.

All the females bowed their heads in submission, except for one. Rosalie watched as the brown eyed female stepped out. She bared her teeth, her ears laid flat against her head.

Dimitri tensed up as he spotted his best female warrior. He wasn't surprised, for years she's tried getting him to mate with her, but it never happened. She was pretty, but not as breathtakingly beautiful as his mate.

"I would like to challenge the Luna." She announced.

Dimitri nodded and stepped to the side, he handed Rosalie his shirt as she shifted back. Once she was covered she looked at the woman.

"What is your name?" She asked.

The woman glared at her, "Summer."

"Very well, I accept your challenge, Summer."

All of her tiredness faded as adrenaline pumped through her veins. Rosalie quickly took her spot, as they waited for Dimitri to tell them to begin, she formed a new attack plan.

Instead of playing, she would go right for the kill. She was bored and just wanted to be by her son's side as her mate fought his challenges.

As Dimitri told them to begin Rosalie didn't waste any time. Summer's eyes widened at the Luna's sudden movement. She attempted to dodge Rosalie's attack, but she failed.

Rosalie grabbed her and punched her in the face. Summer whimpered as she fell to the ground with a broken nose and jaw. Blood poured out of her nose and on to the ground, coating the grass in the crimson liquid.

Rosalie grabbed Summer by her hair and forced her to stand up, she then grabbed her by the throat and kneed her in the ribs.

Summer cried out as her ribs snapped like twigs, but Rosalie wasn't fazed. She then pinned her down and got ready to break her neck.

"Any last words?" She asked.

Summer whimpered, Rosalie sighed when she realized she couldn't speak.

"Do you submit?" Rosalie demanded.

Summer quickly nodded, her eyes wide with fear. Rosalie relaxed and let go of her, she then turned around. She listened carefully as she started to walk towards Dimitri, her attention trained on the blond warrior.

She smirked as Summer shifted and lunged at her, she turned on her heel and grabbed her by the throat. She gritted her teeth as Summer's body slammed into her's. She continued standing though, she looked into Summer's eyes with anger.

"Wrong move." She snarled.

Without hesitation, she snapped Summer's neck and threw her on the ground.

"Anyone else?" Rosalie growled.

This time, the whole pack, including the visiting alphas, bowed their heads in respect. Rosalie nodded and walked over to Dimitri.

He smiled at her and kissed her, "I'm proud to be your mate." He whispered.

She grinned, "I'm proud to be your mate. Now, you go out there and show them why you're not only the alpha of this pack, but why you're my alpha."

Dimitri growled and kissed her again, "Tonight, I'm going to re-claim you. I believe it's overdue. Don't worry, I'll be gentle enough so that the baby will be fine."

She bit back a moan as he kissed her mark, "Yes, Alpha Black."

He smirked and walked into the middle where Clinton was already standing.

"Let the fun begin." Dimitri growled.
