Chapter 6
He is familiar, I think that I had seen him before, but I am not exactly sure where.
“I know that but I also can’t just stand here or just walk away, I don’t think that I can live with myself if I did that.” I told him the truth, I wanted to help that man badly, but I knew that I wouldn’t have done a single thing if I had.
He looks vexed, I feel awful since I just brought Fravis a problem, but he just took things in his hands and intervened between the man and the robber. “Stay here.” He said to me in a cool voice, like something out of a movie.
I saw him fight, he was incredible! I didn’t even know the moves he pulled were even physically possible.
Then at that moment, I realized who he is, he is omega Fravis. Then my heart started beating faster than ever, he looked cool in my point of view, when he approached me, he got that ever charming smile and just continued walking.
From that moment, I knew what I wanted to do, what I needed to do. I yelled at him as I looked pitiful at the moment. “Wait! Please, teach me.” I asked him to train me in his ways, I want to improve almost every aspect of myself, and that includes fighting.
He turned back to my direction and looked me in the eyes. “No.” He rejected my proposal right there on the spot.
“No? Why not? Yes, I am asking you something heavy, but I want to improve my skills, I want to fight like you.” I want to be trained by him so badly, I am determined and motivated from that moment, I knew what I wanted. I have a different purpose other than being a lowly maid and a cook, working for that scum of a human being.
“Do you even know what you’re saying? And why do you even want to learn how to fight? You look like you haven’t even seen a fight.” He basically called me a huge liability in combat.
But I am not going to let anything stand in my way, no matter how hard I have to push on. “Because I want to escape from the pack, I want to be my own, I want to sneak away, without anyone else noticing.” I told him what I wanted, it was something that I knew was my choice, and mine alone. I wanted to be independent, without the help of a pack.
He just laughed at me and looked amused. “Are you kidding me? You? You want to be a rogue? Do you even have any idea on how hard it is to survive alone, as a rogue?” He looked at me like I am some kid who knows nothing of what he is doing.
I changed my tone to a more serious voice as I stared at him without making any expressions whatsoever. “I am not some kid who doesn’t know how life works, okay? I know that if I become a rogue, no one will be there to save me, but myself. But this is why I wanted to be trained by you, because you can teach me things I need to survive. I’ll be strong no matter what, you can count on that.” I am willing to do almost anything just to improve my skills, after a couple more arguments on why he should train me, I am able to convince him to take me in.
That’s how I found out about the gym, he is using and where I sneak out at night to be trained by Fravis, and the night was something I always expected during the day as all I could think about was just training with Fravis.
After a couple of sessions with him, I am finally seeing some improvements in my body, my moves and skills. I know that I am different before I met Fravis, he is training me to my limit almost every night, making sure that I know the fundamentals of fighting and defending myself.
A couple of more sessions, we found ourselves on the rooftop of the gym, just resting after a long session of training with a body bag. “So… What are your plans after this?” He asked me out of nowhere.
I stuttered a bit since I was asked by surprise. “M-My plans? I’m going to be a rogue, remember?”Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
“I already know that… I meant, what are your plans for your training? I mean, I’m sure that you’re not just training because you want to be a rogue right?”
I knew what he was trying to ask me at that point, so I just told him the truth right there and there since I didn’t lie to him about anything. “No. If it’s them, you’re asking? No… I’m not training to stand up to them, and I don’t think I can even stand up to them. They’re literally the Alpha family. What else would you expect them to do? I did stand up to them?”
He had a hard time trying to find any response. “I-I don’t know actually… I’m just the son of the Beta family, I’m sure the Alpha family is much worse.” He said to me as he looked dejected.
I just laughed and smiled at him to break any ice between us. “I may want to stand up to them the moment they try to lay a hand on me, but they’ll just imprison me the moment I do lay a hand on them. And if I am in prison then…”
“You won’t be able to sneak away from the pack.” He is able to finish my sentence since it is already quite obvious, but he looked genuinely concerned about me at the moment.
He looked at the night sky above and his eyes were glimmering. “So… When do you plan on leaving anyway?” He is actually curious about my plans, when I first met him, he only kept to himself, but now, he is this supportive and open-minded person.
