did not expect was for him to be able to lift his entire body and to move his legs to meet with my face. With his movement, I lost my stance and as an attempt to stop it, I let down my guard and let him go. He hit me, yes, but at the same time we both landed hard on the ground. He probably was more bruised than I was but at least no one was bleeding and no bones were broken. It hurt, I was not going to lie but Simon did not have to know that. We both stared at one another dumbfounded about what had just happened. He could not believe himself. And I was sure he was ready to brag about it till the end of the world. "I hit you!" Simon shouted in excitement. "Because I let you hit me just this one time," "That is so not true, you were totally off balance," he argued. "I freaking hit you and you felt it!" There was no point in debating with him, he won this round fair and square and it was his first time so I guessed he deserved a little accolade from me. "You are getting better. That is good but it will not be the end of our training. You still have a long way to go cub," I said and he smiled proudly as we both attempted to get off the floor.

"You should calm down. Maybe you are being too hard on yourself and on your only child." "I have to be," we both broke out of our link to talk verbally. "No, you don't," I objected. "You know the curse makes him different. He had to be at his strongest to be able to rule over a pack. You know this Diane," Nathan's worry over someone he cared about was one of the reasons I fell in love with him. Being his Luna was just an addition. "Why don't you just allow me take off your clothes and prepare you a warm, relaxing shower and probably help you shave the hair on this face.
