Chapter 0394
I met with Nicholas in the same weight room we had our self-defense training. He’d had it cleared out again, this time so he and I could practice fighting.
“Now that you have Miracle’s strength to aid you, you don’t need to rely on the same self-defense tactics as before. Those will still aid you of course, but you are not at such a disadvantage now.”
I nodded as I continued stretching. Nicholas had insisted on it. It had been a few days since my disappearing act, but he was still worried about me having pushed my muscles too hard. I was sore for a full day afterwards.
When I finished, I stood upright. He stood facing me.
He waved me forward. “Come at me like you mean to attack me.
“Shouldn’t it be the other way around?” I asked.
He frowned a little. “Pretend I’m some as shole who took Elva.”
A vicious, angry growl escaped my throat before I realize it. Miracle had made her feelings known on that matter.
“There you go. Keep that energy.” He waved me forward again. “You won’t hurt me.”
Miracle, despite her burst of anger, still seemed hesitant to attack the man she considered our mate.
“He won’t let us hurt him,” I whisper to myself, to Miracle inside of me. “He just wants to help up protect Elva.”
With that reassurance, Miracle seemed more onboard. I felt her strength surge through me.
“Ready?” Nicholas asked.
I nodded.
He lowered into an attack stance. I followed suit. Our stances were similar. It had been some time since I trained as a warrior in physical combat, but I remember Nicholas beside me in the same training. He’d likely perfected the art since then, while I’d let my skills fade away.
Even so, at the core, we’d been trained the same moves.
It was no surprise then, when I pounced, Nicholas met my pounce with the sarne
