Avery’s pov
I held my breath, fire coursing through me. He ignited a fire within me, a fire that he alone could quench. I swallowed.
Xade’s fingers trace patterns on my stomach, his pinky wandering close to the waistband of the purple workout tights. I moaned low as it teased its way between the material, playfully tracing the waistband of my panties.
“You’re a tease,” I breathed out, unable to unclog my mind to focus on the task at hand, which is to not turn around and throw myself at him and beg him to take me.
Since when do I have such reckless thoughts?
I’ve been so horny since meeting him. It’s like he stirred some kind of heat, a burning fire that I want him to smother.
He chuckles low and takes a step back after releasing me. His laughter was seductive, a low rumble that I could feel right between my legs. I finally take air into my lungs but I fight to get my composure back.
“Let me see you jab.” He utters and I try to ignore the ache between my legs.
He was dangerous to be alone with. I can’t focus on anything other than him. How am I supposed to learn when I want him to consume me? What had I been thinking for making him be my trainer?
My hands move into fists and I attempt to execute the jab he instructed.
“Not bad,” he said, breaking me out of the cloudiness of my mind. “But needs more weight. You have a long way to go.”
I looked at him, trying to suppress the shivers that ran through me as his eyes looked into my soul.
“Try again,” he moves to go behind me once more and the small little hairs behind my neck rise. I am aw Focus Avery.
that he’s staring at my back fixedly.
“This time put more force into it,” he said, coming closer and fixing my hands. “You’re too tense, relax baby.”
My stomach flips and my heart pounds. Baby.
“Can you,” I choked on my words, my body humming with his close proximity. “Take a step back please?”
“Why?” I can hear the smile in his voice. He knows what he’s doing and he’s doing it on purpose.
“Because I can’t concentrate when you’re near,” I confess, my cheeks so hot I may need some ice to cool them down.
Xade chuckles low, the sound making that ache between my legs grows. “Okay,” he says playfully and takes a small step back, just enough space so I can breathe again. “I’ll try to be on my best behavior.”
I shift on my foot, trying to keep my composure as I fix my stance the way he wants me to. “For now,” he added low, and perhaps he said it so low so I wouldn’t have heard. But I did. And it made me tingle with anticipation.
I exhale a sharp breath and try to fight off the feelings he have awaken inside me and send a jab in the air. “Good, better,” he praised and I replace myself cracking a smile, liking that I have pleased him.
“Add more weight to it,” he instructed as he steps around to face me. His eyes are set on my every move, watching me intensely.
I did as he instructed, making sure to put more weight into the jab and he nodded in approval, a smile growing on his lips. “You jab as though you’re ready to fight off your demons.”
My eyes burn on my fist as my neck tingles. “I have a demon. In my dreams. He comes in my dreams to choke me.” I looked at Xade. “I don’t want to feel helpless like I do in my dreams. I don’t want to feel weak anymore.”
The air around us grows thick, and his blue storms soften. “Choking you?” He steps forward and I stand straight, sighing as I drop my arms to my side.
I nod. “It’s a recurring nightmare that has haunted me for more than a week now,” I murmured. “It’s always the same guy, trying to force himself on me,” I frowned, my brows furrowing. “I can never see his face, but his hands, his fingers around my neck is enough to imprint on my brain.”
I’m not sure why I am telling him this, but it feels relieving to let him know. There’s something about him that makes me feel as though I can trust him with my deepest darkest secrets.
Xade looks at me with worry. “Is there anything else you remember?”
I shook my head. “It’s just him choking me and trying to rape me.”
Xade looks serious as he utters. “I promise you that after I’ve trained you, you won’t ever feel helpless anymore,” his lips twitch. “You will even be able to knock a horse down on its arse.”
I snorted a giggle, smiling, knowing that he was only trying to make me laugh to ease the tension in the room. For the next hour, Xade helps me do simple exercises and promised that the next time we had training I’d be trying out the gloves.
Xade’s pov
Rose had promised she’d take away the memories of what Kyan had done to her, from her mind. Could it be that these memories are the ones haunting her?
Had they never left her mind? Could it be possible that they have Could it be possible that they have
returned? It’s impossible, right? Rose was one of the high ranking witches who was the best in memory erasing.
It would be impossible for her gift to have weakened. Unless…she had done this on purpose.
As I stared at the petite blonde, my petite blonde, struggling to do pull up’s, I wonder if there was somewhere in her mind…our memories were haunting her too.
