Chapter seven

After they made sure that I was OK by myself at home, they left with a kiss to the cheek. I couldn't help wishing for my wolf to come through soon, I need to turn so hopefully I will get a bit stronger so I can kick Shanya's arse all on my own. That was now my goal. I didn't want to have to run to Dax, this was my fight I was not backing down for the likes of her. If I don't turn soon, I would just have to hope the training we get will toughen me up. 

I must have fallen asleep not long after as I woke up to ten missed calls on my phone and a few txt's.

"You ok Rory? How you doing?" 

"Hello, you ok?" 

"RORY ANSWER YOUR PHONE!!!"

"Bitch don't make me come over there."

"Your Mum answered the house phone told me you were asleep so ignore my previous message." All of these were from Lisa they made me laugh. 

I got just one from Benji asking me how I was the most was from Dax they started off with just 

"How are you feeling, if you need me there I will come back any time of day or night just let me know."

"Aurora are you ok?"

"Come on pick up, have I done something to piss you off?"

"Ignore that last message I sound very needy."

"Let me know your OK whenever you are ready to talk to me." 

You would think that I was in a major accident not just a little beating. I thought I best txt them all back so I send the same message to all three letting them know I am feeling so much better now that I had some sleep and have healed so much more. Then I added on Dax message 

"You didn't piss me off I just fell asleep, I must have felt safer in my own house. We still have some thinking to do and I have to prepare for training to begin."

"That's fine I will help if you want you still have a few days to go."

"That would be great please when can you do?" 

"Half an hour at the gym?"

"Perfect."

" I know I am. (With a winky face)." That made me laugh.

I quickly get changed into some leggins and vest top and strap some trainers on, I head downstairs and no one is home apart from me. So I just grab a banana from the fruit bowl and head towards the gym. Eating my banana on the way. Dax was waiting outside of the entrance for me. 

He gives me a kiss on the cheek and leads me inside to a private room.

"Why are we in here and not out there with everyone else?"

"This is a private room, so I can teach you just me and you it will be easier I need to see what you have before I can start helping."

"Just warning you I have absolutly nothing I am not a very strong wolf."

"OK what age are we talking when you turned the first time." I looked at him and thought sod this I am not going to be shy about this if he has a problem then that is his problem not mine. 

"I haven't turned yet." He looked so shocked at that. 

"That is strange, everyone has normally tunred by the age of eighteen."

"You have a problem with the fact I haven't turned yet?" 

"No not a problem just confusion. We will talk about that later lets just start and see what you have." 

He grabs a pad and holds it up in front of me and tells me to throw some punches at it. I stand there and put all my strength into it not wanting to look totally pathetic. I don't think he even felt it. 

He corrects my stance and tells me to punch again. It was slightly better, but still pathetic. 

"Use your waist to push through, don't move your legs." Dax tells me. 

I keep trying and trying until my knuckles are starting to hurt. 

"OK better, let's move onto some weights though to try give you some more strength." I nod to him already feeling the ache in my arms. I lay down on the bench and he loads the weights on. I lower it down and struggle to push it back up, so he takes off some of the weight and that is a lot better. After half an hour he let's me stop. My arms are trembling now. He wants me to do some more arm workouts but I can't. 

"Please don't make me use my arms please. I can hardly lift them."  He laughs at that. 

"I think that you need more practice if this is all you can give me." He grins 

"Oh yeah, how about this." I go and play punch him. He laughs and starts trying to get me, he is holding back though not wanting to hurt me. He throws a light punch to my side and it still slightly hurt but I didn't let on. I go to throw a punch to his head but he blocks it, I go to throw another punch at him but he grabs my arm and spins me around so that he is holding me from behind. 

"You want to hit me you will have to try a little harder than that." He says while placing a kiss on the back of my neck. I shock myself by pulling his arm and flinging him over my shoulder. 

"How the hell did I do that?" I asked Dax while he is laid out on the floor. I go to him to make sure that he is OK.

"I don't know you tell me, but it was a great move well done. Now give me a kiss better." He grins at me.

"You wish." I smile and get up and run away. He gets up and chases me, he catches up to me quickly and takes me down and we both land with a thud on the mats laughing together.

"Well this is one way to pracice, when can we do it again?" I ask him

"Anytime you want." 

"How about the same time tomorrow? I only have a few days left until training."

"OK same time tomorrow."

We spend the next few days practicing, him showing me the correct way to stand and better ways to punch and kick and doing weights to try get my strength up, I didn't really see any improvement though, it was starting to get frustrating. Tomorrow was now the first day of training.
