Chapter 521 Hot Training Session *ir*


    When Selena and I arrived at the training ground, my eyes were immediately drawn to Maddox engaged in a fierce battle with a werewolf soldier trainee.


    His presence was undeniable, standing out with hismanding aura and physique that exuded power and perfection. I couldn''t help but swallow hard, captivated by his formidable appearance.


    "Close your mouth, you''re practically drooling," Selena teased with a mischievous glint in her eyes. I rolled my eyes.


    "I have seen a lot and even hotter guys than him," I sighed carelessly, but it was a lie.


    ze purred softly in my mind, craving our mate and urging me to approach Micah, Maddox''s wolf. My gaze remained fixed on him as he diligently trained a junior soldier.


    Every move he made was executed with precision and grace, showcasing his remarkable skill. With each victory over the soldier, he took the opportunity to point out the trainee''s mistakes, offering valuable guidance. It was evident that Maddox was not only a formidable fighter but also an exceptional teacher.


    But still, he was an asshole. He had broken my heart, shattering it into a million pieces.


    "ir, are you sure about this?" Selena asked, her brows furrowed in concern.


    I took a deep breath, mustering up my resolve. "I''m certain, Selena. Today, I want Maddox to train me," I dered firmly, my voice filled with determination.


    Ever since I discovered that Maddox was my mate, everything fell into ce in my mind. I understood why he had abruptly stopped touching me, talking to me, and avoiding eye contact after his 18th birthday. It pained him to feel the connection, to experience the depth of our bond bestowed upon us by the moon goddess. He wished to defy the sacred and powerful mate bond bestowed upon us by the moon goddess.


    He knew that if he dared to touch me, his reaction would be impossible for him to suppress. His wolf couldn''t control himself, and he had to reveal I was his mate.


    I couldn''t fathom how he managed to resist the allure of the mate''s scent because I wasn''t able to resist his intoxicating scent of pine and grass. It drove me to the brink of madness, awakening desires deep within me, causing my core to throb and my wolf, ze, to yearn for his touch.


    Now, a burning determination consumed me. I wanted him to experience the same torment that had consumed me ever since I discovered he was my mate. I was resolved to make him suffer and inflict some measure of pain upon him today. "Princess, what are you doing here?" I heard the deep voice of the handsome warrior, Lewis.


    "Lewis, I''m here to practice. I wish you could train me," I smiled, batting my eyes innocently.


    "It would be an honor for me, princess. I will train you. Come with me," Lewis grinned excitedly.


    "Lewis, what''s going on?!" We heard Maddox''s voice thundering in the surroundings as Lewis held my hand.


    "Beta Maddox, the princess is here, and she wants me to train her," Lewis replied to Maddox.


    "You are not designated to train the princess. I will take care of this matter. You go train those kids," Maddox instructed, pointing toward the new trainee squad practicing freely on the ground.


    "No, Beta Maddox, I want Lewis to train me. No one else," I said stubbornly, noticing that Maddox''s eyes narrowed and a muscle twitched in his jaw, indicating his annoyance.


    However, he didn''t argue with me. Instead, he turned to Lewis, motioning for him to go ahead.


    Lewis grinned as he approached me, his presence filling me with excitement. I winked yfully at Selena, who shook her head in warning.


    And... the game began.


    With a mischievous smile, I unzipped my jacket, revealing the hot sports bra and shorts I was wearing underneath. Confidence surged through me as I made my way to the center, eagerly awaiting Lewis to initiate the moves of our fight practice. I could tell he was pleased at my sight of less clothing.


    As we engaged in a dynamic and intense practice session, our bodies moving with precision and fluidity. Each strike and block brought us closer together, our skin asionally touching as he intentionally tried to hold me longer in his arms.


    I couldn''t help but notice Maddox''s presence nearby, and a mischievous satisfaction filled me as I imagined a tinge of jealousy flickering in his gaze.


    His grey eyes remained fixed on us, his fists clenched tightly, and his jaw visibly tense. Suddenly, a low growl rumbled from his throat when I found myself pinned beneath Lewis in a sparring move.


    In the blink of an eye, Maddox forcefully ripped Lewis away from me.


    "Your time is up. You can leave, Lewis. I will train ir," Maddox dered, his voice authoritative andmanding.


    "But, Beta," Lewis attempted to protest, yet one re from Maddox was enough to silence him. Reluctantly, Lewis bowed his head and silently departed from the training ground.


    Maddox''s intense gaze shifted to me, and I couldn''t help but notice the subtle bobbing of his Adam''s apple as he swallowed, yet his emotions unreadable.


    I took my time to ogle my mate from


    up close. He stood shirtless, wearing only shorts, proudly disying his chiseled muscles. Every rippling muscle was on full disy, from his bulging biceps to his defined abs and toned chest. His narrow hips entuated his strong physique, leading down to his powerful legs.


    "Are you sure you can handle me?" I teased, a mischievous grin ying on my lips. "I''ve never been more certain in my life, kid," he intentionally called me ''kid,'' despite knowing I was neen, just to get under my skin.


    "Well then, what are you waiting for?


    could


    Let''s get started," I replied with a teasing smirk As I threw my punch and attacked first, he swiftly dodged, showcasing his intelligence and quick reflexes. It seemed he believed he could maintain a safe distance from me. However, before she could understand, he swiftly grabbed my outstretched hand, effortlessly pulling it back and countering my movements with precision. I was startled at that moment.


    It was in that instant that I felt an unexpected spark between our bodies. His firm physique pressed flush against mine, creating a tingling sensation that sent shivers down my spine. It was the first time I experienced such an unseen connection, and it left me breathless, my heart racing with a mixture of


    fear and intrigue.


    The intensity in his gaze was unmistakable. He must have felt it, right?! The way his grey eyes darkened and his breath quickened, it seemed as though he had just made the worst decision of his life. Seizing the opportunity, I pushed him, causing him to lose his bnce and fall onto his back when he least expected it. With lightning speed, I straddled his hips and firmly held his arms in ce.


    His eyes bore into mine, his full plump lips slightly parted. In a swift motion, he flipped me over, and now Iy beneath him, my hands pinned above my head.


    "You need to stay alert, kid. Focus on your moves, or else you could easily end up getting killed," he gritted his teeth, sounding breathless.


    He persistently called me "kid," a deliberate attempt to provoke me or perhaps to convince himself.


    However, I couldn''t help but chuckle at his apparent helplessness, knowing that he was struggling to convince himself that he could fight the mate bond between us. I could feel his growing boner pressing against me, a fact that only added to his frustration. His expression shifted to one of anger, though I wasn''t sure if it was directed at himself or me. He swiftly rose to his feet, putting some distance between us.


    "The session is over. Return to the pack house, ir," he ordered, his tone filled with authority.


    Beta Maddox, I''ve only just begun, and soon your life will be as much of a living hell as mine.
