[Little note from Author: part two will be released tomorrow]
The pair continued to cuddle in bed, and soon after, Damon's breathing beca slow and long as he dozed off. Aila began to drift off as well until the door burst open, startling the both of them. Damon growled at the intrusion, and Aila only gawked at the Gamma werewolf who stood in their room, arms crossed against her chest, wearing her shorts and sports bra.
"You have training," She said coolly.
"Beta Kane is leading today," Damon snapped back before covering his head with a pillow.
"I was talking to the future Luna.." Chiara's cool gaze moved from the giant in the bed to Aila, who now sat up alert in the covers.
Before she could say anything, Chiara went to the other side of the room, rummaging through the chest of draws and wardrobe until she found what she was looking for and threw so shorts and a sports bra at Aila's head.
"You need to be able to protect yourself. From other werewolves, vampires and the hunters. So, get up! I'll wait outside," Chiara said before closing the door behind her.
It seems her quiet morning had to co to an end; even if she could order the Gamma to leave her in peace, she knew it was best to go. Chiara had a point, if she was randomly attacked, her Delta would have to protect her, and she didn't want that, even if it was his job. She needed to beco competent in fighting; there was no way she was going back to the hunters again.
After getting changed, she left Damon in bed, sound asleep, who only stirred when she turned the knob on the door.
"Thank you for looking after
last night," She whispered before shutting the door.
"Of course. I'll always protect you," Damon mind-linked back in a sleepy voice.
Aila smiled from the sound of his voice; that smile dropped imdiately when she saw Chiara's stern face.
This is going to hurt…
The pair walked side by side across the grounds, making their way towards a building at the far end, where part of the driveway led there from the mansion's entrance. The power of the two she-wolves was evident as they walked past pack mbers sparring and training. The ones who rested on the sides would bare their necks to Aila, and if they were close enough, she would hear them greeting her as 'Luna' or 'Your highness'. Any ti their eyes landed on Chiara, they instantly tensed and looked away.
"Why do I get the feeling that you'd stab soone if they look at you?" Aila mind-linked the Gamma.
Chiara chuckled, "I would never stab soone for looking at … I did punch soone in the throat and then another ti poked soone else in the eyes for staring too long."
Aila looked at her in mock horror as the Gamma smirked at her response.
Well, I did think she was stunningly scary when I first t her. Aila waited for her wolf to make a snarky comnt but realised she was still asleep. It was now very strange to have no one inside her head talking. Very strange indeed.
Chiara opened the door to the building and let Aila go through first to see a high-quality sports hall. To the far left were so stairs that led to a gym that was clearly seen through the high ceiling windows that overlooked the hall.
There was a boxing ring along with punch bags, mitts, and gloves to the opposite side of the hall. There were also mats piled on the side, ready for when the weather would not allow the pack to train outside.
Chiara nodded her head towards the boxing ring area. Aila walked ahead, and once she made it past a few punching bags, she found herself turn swiftly and blocking an attack from Chiara. Her eyes were wide at the sudden ambush but quickly recovered when Chiara's leg swung round to kick her in the face. Aila ducked and rolled to the side out of the way.
Chiara hmphed and scrutinised her, "Your reaction ti is good. But you need to be aware of your surroundings at all tis. Even if you are with friends."
The Gamma walked around and grabbed a pair of mitts, "Warm-up using the skipping rope, then we'll get down to business."
After going through the basics and learning more advanced moves, the pair began going through them, increasing the speed and tempo. Chiara would shout out a combo, such as "4-2-2-3
