Chapter 74
This was the first time for Lilac to actually be in the training ground, before this, she had never taken any interest to be in the training ground, not even walked. close to the area, because the warriors sometime scared her.
They could be very brute and vicious when they fought and this scared her so much to see them barring their teeth and fangs.
More so, luna Jasmine didn’t see why it was necessary for Lilac to be in the training ground, since her lesson didn’t include how to train herself or even how to learn. about defending yourself.
That was the job of the warriors and her, as the luna of the pack, would be heavily protected. Those warriors required to drop everything and even throw themselves between the danger and their leader anytime, that was what required from them.
Not to mention, luna Jasmine always gave off the vibe as if she looked down on the warriors, as they were nothing, but a mere of bunches people, who existence only. to be a protector and dedicate their lives for the pack, especially to their alpha and
luna.
“Is this your first time to be in the training ground?” Hunter asked when he saw how startled she was to hear a loud growl from the fighting out there. Currently, they were inside the building, where women warriors were training.
Some of them were old enough, you could see how experienced they were, some of them were very young and even there were children and to Lilac comfort, she saw her three new friends there. It eased her anxiety a little bit.
“Yes, this is my first time,” Lilac replied, she waved her hand at the three of them, but they nodded at her respectfully, which made her a little bit stunned.
Lilac had noticed how people around her became more reserved and paid their utmost respect whenever Hunter was with her, as if they were afraid to annoy the alpha and unintentionally was being disrespectful toward him.
This was weird in Lilac’s opinion because Hunter was nothing, but kind and understanding with her, something that you shouldn’t be afraid about.
“Really?” Hunter raised his brows, he blinked his eyes in disbelieve, as he scrutinized her, looking for the truth. “You are not joking, right? But, at the very least, you must have been in the training ground before, even if it was only for observation
“No.” Lilac shook her head. She was telling the truth. “It’s not common in my pack for the women to be in the training ground, maybe you have heard about this, but my pack doesn’t have woman warrior, because we believe woman is not as strong
as man.” ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
Hunter frowned, he then corrected her. “Golden Claw pack‘ and ‘that pack.”
“What?” Lilac confused about what he was talking about. “What is that?”
“The way you addressed it is wrong.” Hunter then repeated what he said earlier. “Golden Claw pack‘ and ‘that pack! You are the member of this pack now, the future luna, you don’t mention another pack as yours. This is your pack now.”
Lilac was a little bit stunned because Hunter was very detail with such thing, but thankfully, he didn’t prolong the topic. “Remember that, okay?” he stretched out his hand and caressed her cheek. He used to do this little gesture toward her every time he wanted, especially after he told her about their story in the past, he became even more and more affectionate.
In the beginning, Lilac was a little bit flustered and felt uncomfortable, but as time went by, she craved his touch. It was comforting to think there was someone, who desired you.
She didn’t realize it until now, but Aiden’s infidelity had crushed her self esteem, thus to have someone like Hunter, who didn’t shy to show his affection and his desire for her was something that could mend her wound. It boosted her self confidence too.
“Okay,” Lilac replied, it was a rare occasion for her not to be stubborn. “Then, what should I do here? I have never been in training before.”
Hunter waved his hand and a woman in her early thirty came over to greet the two of them, she bent his b*dy respectfully, something that luna Jasmone would smile upon seeing it.
“She is already here and I want you to proceed the way we have talked before.” Hunter’s voice was calm, but firm.
“Yes, alpha.
Lilac moved closer toward Hunter and whispered to his ear. “You have talked about this before?”
“Yes. But, the real training only happened now because you were still recovering from your wounds before,” he explained to her.
“Oh..” Lilac blinked her eyes, she didn’t know what to say. Hunter could look easy going and reckless, but as it turned out, he was a planner and he planned. everything in detail. This was one thing that Lilac had just noticed too.
“You can go with her,” Hunter said, he nudged her shoulder to get her attention. “This is Rami. She is the best warrior trainer here.”
“I am Lilac,” Lilac introduced herself.
After that, Hunter talked about a few things with a lot of term about fighting that Lilac was not familiar with, while she looked at Raya, Lena and Rose, who looked excited to see her there.
At the very least, Lilac knew the three of them, so she wouldn’t be alone.
“I will go now, I hope you will enjoy your first day training, I will come again to pick you up and after that, we will have lunch together, okay?” Hunter patted her head. “Be good.”
“It sounded like you are talking to a child.” Lilac pouted, though she liked the way he treated her.
Hunter chuckled and Rami looked surprised to see the alpha’s genuine smile. “I will go now.”
And with that, Hunter left after he talked about a few things to Rami.
“Come, follow me. I will teach you basic thing” Rami said.
