Traded To The Lycan King
Chapter 11
Penny leads me away from the training pitch where I can hear the warriors yell and grunts as they spar. I look over my shoulder as it grows more distant and I frown to myself, confused. I know what it sounds li supposed to be training, why the hell are we going the opposite way?
My stomach churns and realization dawns. Maybe Merikh isn't ready for his pack to meet me yet. Perhaps he fears they will find me weak and unworthy, as I originally thought. Words are empty when there is r sure has done an awful lot of making it feel the opposite.
"So that's the training arena behind us," Penny says, as if she can read my mind. "You'll be in there once your leg heals. It's really only used for sparring with the uppers."
"I see," I mumble, my eyes scanning the surrounding area.
This pack is massive, less concise than I expected. The pack house, which is the only place I've actually been, is the closest to the water's edge, looking over it like a proud parent. The rest of the pack? Nearly well a lot like I've stepped into a fairytale village.
"This is what we call Old Town." She says, spinning with her arms out like it's a marvel even to her.
"So I assume there is a new town?" I ask, and she laughs.
"We have a more modern section, yes. But this...this is our slice of the past and it's really our senior
pack members' village. The hustle and bustle of city life is that way." she points to my right and I can see the way the buildings change and the sea of people.
"And so we are going....?"
"Ah. Yeah. Sorry. We are going to the lake." She grins.
"The lake?"
"Mmhmm, the first order of business is a gentle walk."
My brow is already sweating and my leg aching as we walk to the place I'm supposed to start my walk. How damn ironic that the walk there may kill me before I get the chance to start. "Okay." I try to remain positive. I mean, what kind of training did I expect with a bum leg, really?
I am so focused on my steps and reminding myself that I've had worse pain, worked harder when I felt way worse. I can do this.
When we get there, Penny spins to face me. She gives me an awkward fake curtsey with a wink and then flounces off, leaving me behind.
"Wait!" I call after her. "What the hell am I supposed to do now?"
She lifts her hands in a shrug as I frown at her back. Am I just supposed to wait here? Or start my walk on my
