I shook out of my thoughts when Deena launched herself at me. I ducked out of the way just in time. I could feel myself losing balance as she came in for another strike. I let gravity take me backward and rolled out of her way just in time to dodge another punch. I got to my feet. This was just like training with Killian. No, Killian’s was far harsher and stricter. I could do this.
I watched as she lunged forward, her arm extending to throw a punch. I pretended to turn left before rolling under her legs and launching myself at her back. I moved fast as I went for her vital joints, decapitating her.
She was on the ground. Just when I was about to hit her again, she sent her leg to my stomach. I groaned, stumbling back onto my feet. f**k. This is going to hurt like hell. I could feel my ribs aching already. She rushed at me with her speed, which was cheating by the way. I pulled my strength into one hand and punched her hard in her chest. She stumbled back, trying to breathe. I attacked her throat, and then her stomach, charging at her knee to cripple her to the ground. I knew she was recovering quite quickly, so I kept hitting her hard until she raised her hand in surrender.
A triumphant smile found my lips, as I collapsed next to her, feeling my insides burn with pain, and sweat covering my body. I need a shower.
Brielle helped me up on my feet. “You did really well. You are getting better at this.”
“I have no choice when my trainer is a ruthless Alpha that keeps training me like he is preparing me for war,”
I rushed as we left the training field.
Brielle chuckled beside me. “Yeah, The Alpha can get like that sometimes.”
I left her back at the training field, taking the shortcut through the woods back to the castle. I moved really fast, and I was almost at the castle when I felt a presence lurking around the woods. I gave a quick scan of my surroundings, but I couldn’t see anyone. I kept moving, still feeling the sick presence around me, and worse, it kept drawing closer.
It alarmed me, as it seemed to be behind me. Carefully, almost unnoticeable, I pulled out my dagger, and without hesitating, or even thinking twice, I swerved around just in time to throw it at whoever was behind me.
As soon as the dagger left my grip, my eyes landed on an unfamiliar face. He was standing a short distance away from me. Just before the dagger could hit him, he lifted a finger, and my dagger stood in the air. His eyes gleamed with an emotion I couldn’t fathom, making me gulp. He was a bloody witch.
Naomi’s point of view
I narrowed my eyes as I watched the unfamiliar face step forward. He was wearing a black cloak over his clothes, his hair was as dark as the night, as it gleamed under the fading sun, and his eyes were a capturing pair of deep magenta. “I sincerely apologize if I frightened you. It wasn’t my intention.”
He released a small smile, grabbing the dagger floating in the air.
“I wasn’t frightened. Just alarmed.”
I said as he stalked closer to me.
“Here.”
He held my dagger for me. I collected it. My eyes scanned him thoroughly. From the little trick he pulled earlier with the dagger, it was obvious he was a witch. But completely unfamiliar. I have never seen him in the witches’ quarters. Was he not from around here?
‘Ask him?’ Adie’s voice echoed as if her presence was in front of my mind.
“I haven’t seen you around here before. Who are you?”
I asked, placing my dagger in my boots.
“You are right. I am not from around here; I just came to visit. But I might stick around a little longer.”
He smiled again, deeply, revealing a nice dimple on the side of his cheek.
I nodded at every word he said. But he still wouldn’t tell me who he was.
As if reading my thoughts, his lips broke again into a smile. “I am Lorenzo, and a witch, as you know already.”
He chuckled. “But you haven’t told me who you are? I also haven’t seen you around here before.”
The way he spoke was like he had been here before. But I refuse to ask any more questions.
I let out a smile. “I am a-“
“Naomi!”
A loud voice completed from behind me. I sighed, smilingly. I didn’t need to turn around to know it was Killian. His sweet musky scent was in the air already.
“That’s my name, Naomi,”
I said to the new stranger.
He smiled, looking past me to Killian, who was nearby. I turned to find Killian’s eyes on the new guy.
“Enzo?”
Killian muttered with raised brows.
“Alpha Killian,”
Lorenzo called, again with a small smile.
“What are you doing here?”
Killian was next to me.
“Valerie called for me. It seems she needs my help with something of importance, regarding the crescent moon rising,”
Lorenzo said. It was about the curse.
“Well, welcome back,”
Killian said to him, snaking a hand around my waist.
“It’s good to be back. I will take my leave now.”
His eyes moved from Killian to mine, his smile deepening amusingly. “It’s a pleasure to meet you, Naomi. I will most definitely see you around.”
He said before walking away. “Who is he?”
I turned to Killian.
His thick, perfect brows knitted together. “He just told you, didn’t he?”
I could see the sarcasm in there, as well as the jealousy laced in his tone. With each passing day, I could feel Killian’s growing possessiveness of me. He always gets angry and jealous, especially whenever I am with the pack’s male warriors.
Frankly, I could understand him. I also feel that way, so possessive of him that I am struggling so hard not to show it. I don’t think I can handle him being with someone else like before when he was with Thea. Even though I hated the fact that Thea was still here in the pack, there was nothing I could do about it. And Killian hasn’t given me a reason to worry. In fact, he has stayed far away from her. I don’t know what I would do if he ever betrayed me again with someone else.
‘Well, we will just have to kill him,’ Adie grunted, making me chuckle internally. ‘I really mean it’
“Thanks to you, I couldn’t ask more questions.”
I shook out of my thoughts, ignoring the silly words of my wolf.
“He is a witch of the coven. He went away some time back. But I guess he’s back.”
Killian said, pulling me into his arms. He kissed my lips.
“We are having a meeting in an hour along with the witches. I want you to be there.”
