Chapter 19

• Training with Eridian had been going well. I learnt a few tricks from him but I was yet to beat him. His speed and strength gave him an edge over me. Each time I whined, he reminded me Gardenia would be fighting for my submission. The contest had been moved to the end of the month so, I had a lot of time to practice.
• Archery had been the worst during my training. I was barely able to hold the bow properly much less hitting the bulls eye. I needed to be good at atleast one activity. Don't get me started on hunting. I was too noisy to catch a damn rabbit. I couldn't move stealthily like Eridian or Jairus. The rabbit always spotted me before I could make a kill. I groaned in frustration as I dragged myself to my room and collapsed face front on my bed.
• My body had barely gotten any rest since training began. Sometimes I felt like giving up but when I remembered the smirk on that bitches face and Jairus's face when I refused to train, I pushed harder. I was going to wipe the smug look off that bitchs face and show her who the real queen was.  I hadn't even seen Thane in a while now. I had been avoiding him since after my heat but now he wasn't available to be avoided. I hadn't seen him in almost a week and my heart ached at the thought.
