The Necklace That Protects Me novel Chapter 43

"Okay, okay, break it up a bit guys. We do have things we need to talk about and figure out." Thomas said, sounding more and more like a high school teacher. "So now the mystery is out of the bag. Noel is a white wolf, which explains why her parents hid her scent. I'd say with quite a bit of certainty that the rogue attacks are directed at her." This statement knocked me out of my haze. I stiffened, Michael let go of me and came to my side and grabbed my hand, I laid my head on his shoulder. I hadn't expected the rogues were after me.

"It is important that we keep your scent hidden from everyone, I don't think we should trust anyone else at this point." Amy added.

"I think it's important that we get her trained, she needs to be ready. I for one can't wait to see how kick ass the mighty white wolf is!" Brian stated with a smirk.

As I figured Michael and Brian were going to train me in wolf form, Amy was going to teach me magic, and Thomas was going to train me in human form. They set a grueling training schedule for me, but I was excited. I couldn't wait to see what all I could do. For today I was going to train with everyone, they were going to test me and see where my skill level was. This I was not confident about, but Lilith was basically chomping at the bit to prove herself. She also wanted to see Michael's wolf again.

First, Thomas tested me in human form. I was quite sore but did everything he ask. He had me sprinting back and forth, running through the woods, and finally hand to hand combat. I did really well at the running but the hand to hand combat not so much. I was fast but that's about all I had on my side. I didn't have an inkling of how to fight. I didn't manage to land even one hit on Thomas, though he repeatedly had me on the ground. Even though I possessed strength and speed I had never felt before I couldn't keep up with Thomas.

Next was wolf form, I fully let Lilith take control. We ran through the woods with our mate at our heels but stuck to the edge of the woods near Thomas's, which was under Amy's shield. Michael couldn't keep up with us. When it was time to fight Michael couldn't even spar with us out of fear of hurting us so he let Brian. Lilith easily pinned Brian with her teeth gently around his neck. Michael clapped.

"Okay, thank you Lilith. Now can you let Noel take control." Michael smirked.

Amy sat down on the ground, her beautiful tan dress flowing around her, and motioned for me to sit as well.

"I want you to sit down and close your eyes. I want you to try to feel the life around you, bring that energy into you and let it warm your body." Amy instructed.

I did as she asked. I took notice of everything I felt and heard. The warm sun on my skin, the light breeze in my hair, the sound of a stream not far away, and The bird in the trees chattering away. I even felt a hum from the vegetation of the forest. I tried to bring the feelings into me and let it warm my body. Quickly I felt energy pooling into my body. The pulse of energy came from my fingertips and slowly spread through the rest of my body.
