Remember, your wolf is a part of you, not a separate entity When you're stronger, she's stronger. And she'll need her strength to emerge from this dormant state." "I see," I said, smiling. “That makes sense. Thank you for doing this and for givingshope." "Of course." She nodded. "Now, Alpha Black is waiting for you. He toldto send you on to this address when you were finished." She handeda small notecard with an address written neatly across it. “It's not far from here." "Thank you," I replied, taking the card.
The doctor nodded once more. "I'll give you sprivacy to get dressed. When you're ready, you can exit the way you came." With that, she left the room. I quickly dressed and then entered the address into my phone. It was a short walk, 50 I decided not to call for a ride.
When I stepped out of the office, James was waiting on the sidewalk, his posture alert. He had insisted on walkinghere but agreed to wait outside for privacy.

James smiled when he saw me, moving to walk besideas we started down the sidewalk. "Alexander's waiting forsomewhere nearby, apparently," I said, handing him the note card.
"Oh," James said thoughtfully, glancing at the address. "That's the gym." "The gym?" I repeated, surprised. "Why would Alexander want to meetthere?" James shrugged. "Many members of our pack use this gym. He might be finishing a workout and figured he'd meet you there." "Maybe," I said, considering it. I hadn't pictured Alexander as someone who worked out regularly, but of course, a physique like his wasn't maintained by sitting in an office all day.
James ledeasily to the gym, a plain brick building. Inside, the scent of lemon and soap greeted us. The gym's decor was simple and clean, and all the equipment looked brand new.
I scanned the room and immediately spotted Alexander on the far side of the floor. As James and I approached, I noticed a few others joining him, all of them watching us with interest.
"What's going on?" I asked Alexander once I was close enough to speak in a normal tone.
"I spoke to the doctor this morning before your appointment," he replied. "She mentioned that if all went well, she'd recommend an exercise regimen to help strengthen your wolf. So, I thought I'd get a head start by meeting my team here." "Your team?" I asked, a bit confused.
"My personal trainers,” he clarified, gesturing to the three people nearby. "They work with many members of the pack. I trust them."

Alexander chuckled. "That's exactly what I'm saying. But don't worry I've never asked asked you to do something I wouldn't do myself. I'll join you for the first few workouts to help you get into it."
Heat rose to my cheeks. The thought of working out with Alexander madeboth nervous and excited, and the teasing glint in his eye didn't help.
Not wanting to let him see how flustered I felt, I smirked back. "We'll see if you can keep up with me,” I challenged. +25 BONUS Chapter 0148
