Chapter Thirteen

Me and Nikkos were behind the house training and while I was teaching him things he was also teaching me things. Before we went to bed we had come to an agreement to start training and working out different plans so that we couldn’t be taken by surprise again. That also included me building up more strength so I could hold my ground even better since these shadow beings seemed to have more power than we thought. So on top of fighting training, we were also exercising too.

“Shit!” I gripped my side after Nikkos leg connected with it.

He frowned at me, “You should have dodged that.”

I stared at him, “You were a little too fast.”

“So are the shadows. If you can’t intercept faster attacks you’ll be hurt way worse than before. I don’t want you hurt at all but I know that can’t be helped with the situation.” Nikkos said as he closed the distance between us and pulled my hand away from my side.
