CHAPTER 36

Lyra's POV.

My hands were weeping by the time she was done with me and I could see her smiling at the corner of her lips making me realize that she was even more dangerous than any enemy I could have ever imagined that I would have.

"You are just a pure weakling. Why are you acting like you being sentenced to death rather than just asked to do a little workout? It's not as hard as you're trying to make it look." Camille laughed at me.

It was better when she was a strict trainer because now she could properly air her feelings without thinking that I'm going to get hurt and that annoyed me even more.

I took a deep breath and picked up the dumbbells again before squatting like she had demonstrated that my legs were failing and my hands were also trembling like a leaf in a blight of wind.

"You are one to talk. Isn't it simple because you are blessed with the ability to be one of these things that you think is not that hard for people like us?" I complained.

There was huge silence before she finally decided to speak up and I believe that something was going to happen when she behaved in such a manner.

"I mean I know that it's been quite a long time since you trained but don't you think that it will give him too many chances to lose? What if you could just persevere and you were able to get everything that you ever wanted? What are the odds that you would have to suffer again?"

Motivation didn't exist because I could see beyond face value and I realized how important it was in our hands to get me drained out. It was going to feed her delusion that she has been able to break me or give me a challenge that I would never be able to crush.

My wolf growling inside of me, yet I refused to break eye contact with her.

Two people could play a game pretty well and I hope to win at the end of the day because it was not going to be easy to let go.

At some point I needed to come up with something else that was going to cause an entire destruction for someone like her even if I didn't think it was possible.

She had the attention span of an eagle. Always training her eyes on me and never letting me out of her sight even if it was for a split second.

She believed that going to do something was hard, which was a paranoia I didn't think I could ever clear up no matter how close we became.

"Good brief I would have to report to Lucius that you are not willing to take this as seriously as you should but at some points I think

it would be better or if you just allowed me do what I believe is better or what do you think? It was going to be a huge problem telling everybody that I did really mind when I did.

"I want to know more about this place because it helps me get in touch with my wolf and something deeper inside." I lied, picking up the dumbbell with my last strength.

The goddess knew that I was pretending but I hoped to never be caught because the moment I was, everything was going to go down from there and honestly I didn't want to be found in such a weird scenario.

I wanted to get my groove and get out of this place before it was too late.

She looked like she wanted to get me deep into this and leave no space for me to escape but my visions were becoming more clearer and I could see damnation.

"What do you think about the alpha that rejected you?" Camille asked out of the blue.

I will be stupid to divulge personal information that has so I took the route that you would have also taken which was delaying my answers for a bit.

"Uh... I don't really think that is anything much for us to discuss about this. It's not really about the issues, it is..." I stalled, deliberately provoking her to say something.

"I'm asking if you love him or not I'm not asking you for more information than you're not willing to drop."

"I don't feel anything for him more than anger. He cast me aside when I needed him the most. I don't know what else you think I should feel for someone like that. If you were in my position what would you advise?"

She looked at me like I was crazy but that was the only way I could deal with someone like her from afar without breaking character or doing something that was going to tell on everyone.

"You better not be kidding me because I'm going to find out one way or the other and it will not be good for your image." She warned me stylishly.

I didn't flinch at her threats. I had nothing to fear because I knew what I wanted and until I had gotten that the rest of the people would just have to take a break while I did my thing.

"Are you honestly thinking that to get answers you have to drag on for so long because it's quite a disaster?" I asked again.

"Alpha Kael is in trouble and we are willing to strike him now that his defenses are really low."

This wasn't an issue on my part and I could tell that she understood my confusion again. "Lucius wants to know if you still have some feelings for him because we won't share to get his head." She remarked.

Bile welled up in my throat. I knew that I wanted revenge on the people who have cost me aside but that didn't mean taking him out of the way like that.

"Are you in?" She inquired.

With a shaky voice, I whispered. "Yes."
