The Lycan King’s Second Chance Mate by Sumi

Chapter 0016

ASHANTI'S POV.

"Good morning Nelly." I offer her a small smile as I walk into the arena. She sure is an early bird

because it's still eight in the morning and she's already sweating, meaning she has been here for a while now, warming up.

"Good morning Ashanti. How are you today?" She asks cheerfully. I stop walking and shake my head, letting out a heavy sigh.

"My entire body feels like I've been run over by a truck. All my bones and muscles are aching." I cry out and her body shakes with laughter. 1

"That's bound to happen. Your body will adapt pretty soon."

"I know, right?"

"Come on, let's jog around before the rest of the guys arrive and the real combat training starts." She urges and I fall in step with her light jogging around the arena. It's a good thing I've been into athletic activities all my life, so adapting to all this will be easy peasy to me. "You shocked everyone yesterday with your combat skills, including myself. I would never have guessed you were such a good fighter." Nelly says after our first round of jogging. We are both sitting down on a nearby mat, panting heavily and I chuckle at her admission.

"I've been training since I learned how to walk."

"Wow! Then you must be really good."
