Alessia’s POV

I’m waken up by bright lights streaming in through the blinds. I squint my eyes open, wondering why I left the blinds open. I always make sure to close them every night before going to bed. Did I forget to do that last night?

I sit upright on the bed and that is when I notice that the king-sized bed with grey duvet isn’t the o queen- sized bed that I’m used to. That’s when everything starts rushing in. Along with the memory comes the realization that I’m the only one present in the room. Caden isn’t anywhere around the premises of his

room.

Did he leave me alone in his bed? Anger follows the crushing embarrassment that builds in my the two of them sink deeper into my stomach.

chest and

If he was going to abandon me the next morning then what was all those talks about me being his and his alone?

I fall back onto the bed, blinking away the tears trying to fall from my eyes. Caden doesn’t deserve those tears. I wipe my eyes with the back of my palm and stand up from the bed to search for my clothes.

Finding them neatly folded on a chair somehow seems more embarrassing than finding them in a heap on the floor. It looks like I’m seeing the evidence of my s lu t i n e s s through Caden’s eyes. I quickly pull them on and move for the door, cranking it open with just enough space to peep out into the hallway to see if anyone is passing through.

Finding the hallway empty, I quickly walk out of Caden’s room and rush down the stairs to mine. Doing the walk of shame drains a lot out of me and I couldn’t have been more grateful by the time I see the door

to my room.

I quickly open the door and slide in before anyone can see me. I get to my room undetected but the fact that everyone already seems to be at the pack house probably played a role in that.

That anger comes back hotter this time. I can’t believe he didn’t f u c ki n g wake me up. Did he think he was doing me a favor by letting me sleep in his bed like a baby while he went to the training grounds?

I don’t care if my anger is unwarranted. All I know is that I’m going to make Caden pay for this when next 1 lay my eyes on him.

Stripping out of my yesterday’s outfit, I jump into the shower and wash last night’s event away from my body and down the drain.

Once I’m cleaned up, I jump right out and hurriedly change into some workout clothes then I rush out of the pack house in the direction of the training grounds.

On walking in, I see that everyone is already immersed in their workout routine and no one pays attention. to my entry. That may be due to the fact that Julianna isn’t anywhere to be seen. Thank the Moon goddess for small miracles. I couldn’t have dealt with another confrontation.

Chapter 33

Caden is sparing with Alex in one corner and Raphael is acting as some sort of referee.

Throwing a glare at him, 1 head over to a free space and do my warm-ups. Then I move over to a punching bag and start my own workout routine consisting of fifty punches.

Afterward. I head over to the barbells and do my normal rounds. Panting, I look around the training ground not knowing what else to do.

Now is the time that I would usually start my sparing session with Caden but there’s absolutely no way that I’m going to go to him and ask for his help. Not when I’m still seething mad at him.

A tap lands on my shoulder. “Need some help there?”

I flip around to find Jake standing beside me with a smile on his face which I return. Ever since the bonfire, Jake and I have stop spending so much time with each other. It didn’t seem like it would be fair to keep being all over him when I knew how he felt for me. And I know I can’t reciprocate the same feelings for him.

“Yes” I sigh. “I need a sparring partner.” I look over at Caden who’s occupied with some group o

“Do you want to spar with me?” He asks, shrugging like it’s no big deal.

of boys.

I’ve never sparred with anyone other than Caden and Raphael that one time when Caden was too busy being petty. It would be nice to have another opponent and maybe learn some new techniques.

“Ok.” I nod, accepting his offer.

Jake smiles brightly like I’m the one doing him a favor and not the other way around.

We move over to a space in the middle of the room, wide enough so that we don’t cause causalities in the process of our fighting.

open space

We circle each other, looking for an opening in the other’s defense. I find one in the form of an open between his shoulder and neck. A place that he was foolishly keeping open.

I take the opportunity, to throw a punch with the target in mind. Out of nowhere, he steps to the side and closes a hand around my fist which he twists to my back.

I gasped as pain shot up my arm, nearly bringing me to my knees. The pain intensifies as he puts more pressure on his grip, enough to make me let out a little cry.

open my mouth to answer his smart a s s with a sarcastic response but I’m cut off by a loud thundering voice.

“Get your hands off my f u c k i n g mate!” Caden yells, stalking over to us with murder in his eyes.

Wait. Did he just refer to me as his mate? Does he realizes what he just f u k i n g did?

Every body in the training grounds has their gaze on my mate as he rushes over to my side. And everyone has different degree of shock on their faces.

We’re so f u c k e d.
