(Alexa's POV)"Aha" my heart...I was really puzzled about why I suddenly felt an aching pain in this heart of mine when I heard Elle claiming him. No, it wasn't just pain, but I also felt anger seething in my heart. This feeling... I wasn't used to this but it really made me want to tear her face apart.I tried to smile back at her in response, but forcing out a smile only made me appear like I was sneering coldly at her. My eyebrows also twitched on their own as though they were itching to slap the shit out of her. Not realizing that something was amiss from my facial expression, I opened my mouth and finally replied, "Can't you just stop rumbling and let our fists do all the talking? Or don't tell me, you're just all bark no bite?"My words... I could see clearly that it pierced her heart like it was an arrow. Her expression went completely dark as I found her eyebrows twitching more violently than mine.She glared at me with those terrifying eyes of hers as, after a second, her ha
(Alexa's POV)"Are we really not MATE?"Ezekiel shifted his gaze to me after hearing my question. Still, he had this expressionless face, making it impossible for me to read his mind."What the hell are you dreaming about? Do you also want to receive a resounding slap?" But Ezekiel only replied with these cold words. He walked closer to me and stared into my eye deeply. Our faces went so close that I almost assumed that he was about to kiss me.But he wouldn't be able to fool me. I could see from his eyes and hear from his voice that he was just trying to evade my question with his dominance. Since that was the case, I could only assume that what I thought was right, was really the case.I might be his mate!But why was he not telling me? He can't get over his ex-mate, he doesn't even want a luna like me who doesn't even have a wolf..."I'm sorry, please forget what I said." I gave in as I didn't pursue the matter any longer. It's me who shouldn't have such fantasies. I have so much t
(Alexa's POV)I clenched my fist tightly, I clenched my teeth inwardly as I couldn't find a word to respond. I glared at him with my watery eyes as I tried to suppress my anger. Why must he be so blunt? Was he really my mate? Or I was the only one who was overthinking things?"Since you have nothing else to say, let's start our training now." Ezekiel suddenly spoke again. He put his hands behind his back before he continued, "Come, attack me with all you've got. I promise that I won't fight back. If you managed to hit me or scratch any part of my body including my hair and clothes, you win. The training will not be over unless you win."His words awakened me and made my eyes widen for a short moment. But after that short moment, a wide smile suddenly appeared on my lips. Finally! This bastard had lost his mind. I was itching to make him my punching bag. Now that he ask for it, I would definitely not turn down the offer."I will definitely make sure you will regret it!" I replied with
(Alexa's POV)Gasp! Gasp! Gasp!Swoosh!I was breathing heavily. I felt like my knees were going to fail, inviting me to collapse on the ground. Still, I restrained myself from doing so as I attacked Ezekiel with everything I got.Though, of course, I wasn't able to hit him at all."What the hell are you doing?""Have you forgotten already about what I told you yesterday? Are you really that stupid for you to use your brain?"As I attacked him continuously, Ezekiel would also run his mouth constantly. And that only made me want to hit him more."Don't just attack randomly!""Remember the feeling when you made that giant splash yesterday. Instead of applying it to your hand, apply it to your senses.""What the hell?! Are you even listening?""With this level of talent, did you really think that you will be able to avenge yourself? Stop dreaming. Your enemy is the Savage Tyranny pack! Hard work is not enough to beat them, you need talent!"Gasp! Gasp! Gasp!After my continuous pointless
(Alexa's POV)"You should have at least pretended that you couldn't react on time and let me hit your stupid face." I rolled my eyes in displeasure, seeing that I failed to give Ezekiel his rightful fist. Although I managed to hit him and won against him, my victory didn't make me feel that good. I wasn't satisfied at all.But what else could I do? I was now breathing more heavily than before as I was drained out of my strength. I felt like I was about to collapse on the ground at any moment. I couldn't possibly hit Ezekiel anymore with the state I was currently in, right?"You should be proud of yourself that you managed to win. Others might not be able to do so in such a short period of time," Ezekiel replied. As always, his tone was nonchalant. Although right now, I could see a small trace of happiness in his eyes. Perhaps, it was because I still got my senses enhanced that was why I was seeing things.But what he said didn't comfort me at all nor give me satisfaction. I didn't rea
(Author's POV)"Hm... She caught on really quickly. Is she some kind of genius now?" Ezekiel muttered inwardly as he stared at Alexa who was currently meditating. He found it hard to believe that with just a simple explanation he told her once, she was able to grasp everything. And right now, he could tell that she was in the depth of her consciousness.He shouldn't disturb her. Because he knew that this was a critical moment where a slight disturbance might cause her harm, especially to her mental state. He needed to secure the place and protect her at her weakest.However, as he was staring at Alexa, he suddenly took notice of the beauty she possessed. He was put into a trance as though some kind of force was attracting him to stare at her intently. He had already seen countless beautiful women in his life, but none of them managed to put him in such a state. This little girl was just too beautiful to behold.Was it because of their mate bond? Ezekiel swallowed his dry saliva at the
(Alexa's POV)When Ezekiel touched me, a spark of heat existed inside me. I couldn't understand what I felt at that moment. All I knew was that his touch gave me a warm feeling.But when I realized that I was losing my composure again, I instinctively slapped Ezekiel's hand off of me. I mean, I wanted his hand to stay there, but I couldn't possibly show him that I wanted it so badly, right? He might think of me as some kind of a slut or something."I'm fine, so don't touch me." I then spoke. Still, I felt my cheeks burning hot as I couldn't meet Ezekiel in the eyes."?" Ezekiel didn't reply to me immediately though. He only looked at me for several moments as a huge question mark floated over his head. And then he said, "It seems like you've gained back your strength. Let's continue our training then."Only then did I gain the courage to meet him in the eyes. I revealed a faint smile before I replied, "Okay, I'm ready anytime. What should we do next?"Just like that, Ezekiel explained
(Alexa's POV)"Whatever is in your mind, hurry up and shake them off. You're too obvious." Ezekiel suddenly spoke nonchalantly.His remark made me feel embarrass as I immediately shook away my dirty thoughts. I forced out a bitter smile as I replied, "What are you talking about? Let's continue training already.""Here, take this." Ezekiel replied as he outstretched his hand and gave me a piece of silk. It was the clothe I used to blindfold myself yesterday in our training."This again?" I asked in response as I reluctantly grabbed the blindfold from his hand. Out of all the training we did yesterday, this was the most annoying. And it was no doubt the training I hated the most among all the others.After all, Ezekiel would attack me while I was being blindfolded, giving him the chance to take advantage of me. I even doubted that it was really a training as I thought that Ezekiel was only making fun of me."Yes, but this time, I won't attack you anymore," Ezekiel responded nonchalantly
