Chapter 178 Audrey

After our training session, I was breathless but exhilarated. My muscles ached pleasantly, a reminder of the progress I had made so far. Edwin had finally taught me some basic punches, and I was eager to learn even more.

"You did a good job today. Audrey," he said, wiping sweat from his brow with a towel. "You're picking this up quickly. Your form is improving, and your strikes are getting stronger.",

1 beamed at him, my chest heaving from the exertion. "Thanks for teaching me. I feel... stronger already. Like I could take on the worldTM

Edwin smiled and shook his head good-naturedly. "Don't go getting c**y on me now, Miss Klein. You've still got a long way to go.

I stuck my tongue out and giggled.

As we started cleaning up the training room, putting away equipment and wiping down surfaces, Edwin turned to me. "Why don't you go take a bath and put on something nice? I want to take you out for breakfast today."

My eyebrows shot up in surprise. "Out? Like, in town? Are you sure?"

"I think it's time we showed our faces a bit. Plus, I want to spoil you. You deserve it after all your hard work."

I rushed upstairs, excited for a day out together. I had spent so long craving days like this, craving the freedom to walk hand-in-hand down the street, that every time we did it felt like a reward.

I took a quick bath, letting the hot water soothe my tired muscles, before blow-drying my hair. After some deliberation, I chose a warm sweater dress in a deep burgundy color, paired with thick black tights and knee-high boots. My black and silver hair peeked out from beneath a soft beanie, and I threw on a little eyeshadow and mascara for good measure.

When I came out of the bedroom, Edwin was waiting in the hallway, dressed in a smart charcoal sweater and dark trousers. He looked like he had stepped out of a fashion magazine, and I felt my breath catch in my throat upon looking at him.

Turning to me, his eyes flicked appreciatively over my body, their gray hue instantly flashing golden with desire. Before I knew it, he surged forward and had me pressed against the hallway table, his lips hot on my neck and his fingers trailing fiery paths on my skin, even through the thick fabric of my sweater dress.

"Edwin," I gasped, half-heartedly pushing my palms into his chest even as my body arched into his and my wolf yipped excitedly. "Breakfast, remember?"

He growled lowly and pulled away reluctantly. "Right Breakfast Let's go before I change my mind and keep you here all day."

The drive into town was pleasant, the winter landscape beautiful in the morning light. Frost glittered on tree branches, and patches of snow still clung to the ground. Edwin took me to a cozy restaurant, the smell of coffee and pancakes making my

mouth water as we entered.

The host led us to our table, a booth situated right in the window. I sighed contentedly, scooching into the shaft of sunlight there and letting it warm my chilly face.
