It was another early morning, but unlike the last one, it was particularly cold and rainy-the first signs of a long
and very wet spring. It took all of my willpower to roll out of bed that morning, and just about all of my energy to
pull my hair back into a ponytail and put on my training clothes.
“Here goes a
a second try,” | muttered to myself as | pulled my bedroom door open and stepped into the hallway.
It had been a few days since the last disaster of a training day, and Noah insisted that he had recovered enough
to begin training. | had promised to alternate between Noah and Drake for training, and today was Noah's day-
thankfully in our own hgym.

But as | made my way downstairs and toward the west wing of the mansion where the gym was located, |
couldn't help but feel nervous. It wasn't just that the last training day had been a disaster, it was also that |
hadn’t trained with Noah, really trained, in years.
And last twe tried to train together, right before the Luna Queen’s tournament...
Well, it had been a bit of a nightmare. My wrist still throbbed on instinct when | thought about how we fallen
together in a tangled-up heap.
When | stepped into the gym, Noah wasn’t there yet-surprisingly. Normally, he was always the first person in the
room, but apparently not today.
mad
| sighed, my eyes scanning the hgym: the state-of-the-art equipment, the lockers by the door, the enormous
floor-to-ceiling windows taking up one entire wall.
| stepped over to the windows and peered out. The rain fell on the glass in droves, the sky so dark with heavy
rain clouds that | could see my reflection in the window. Somewhere in the distance, there was a
dark. flash of lightning followed by a low rumble of thunder. | shuddered slightly and wrapped my arms around
myself.
“Stormy today.”
| whipped my head around to see Noah stepping into the room in his usual training gear. His face was mostly
healed already, save for a small crack of red on his lower lip-a cut that hadn't healed fully yet because | had a
theory he had been picking at it.
“Yeah.” | shrugged and turned fully to face him. “1 guess I'm not going outside today.”
neither,” he said, striding over to the center of the room. | watched as he began pulling out a mat for us to
use. “It'll be a good day to stay inside, maybe even watch a movie...”
My eyebrows raised of their own accord. “You? Watching a movie?” | couldn't help but chuckle. “That might be a
first.”
He shota sidelong glance. “I meant for you. | have work to do.”

“Oh.” | had to quickly look away to hide my disappointment. Despite myself, a tiny part ofhad secretly hoped
that he would have been implying that we should watch a movie together-like a real husband and wife.

But of course the cold Alpha had work to do. | couldn't even remember the last twe had watched a movie
together.
Once the mat was arranged, Noah stretched his girthy arms over his head and nodded toward it. “Ready?” he
asked.
| nodded and strode over to the mat, carefully avoiding his gaze. We stretched in silence for a few minutes, the
only sound that of the fan running and the storm raging on outside. Finally, Noah was the first to break that
silence.
“Let’s get to work,” he said, straightening. “We've got straining to do.”
| laid back on the mat, out of breath and my forehead caked with sweat. Noah pushed himself up to his knees
and wiped his brow with the back of his wrist.
