*Another person reached out to me this morning and I'd be lying as hell if I say that wasn't the bed thing I have woken up to for months (￣︶￣)> Thank you Patience Ejiasa for all this compliments, you're very sweet and I promise to update when I can, and thank you Eugene for telling her to read it. The two chapters I am writing today are dedicated to you both! (✯ᴗ✯) *

The last three days with Axel had been extremely....
Sigh, Raven could not even find the right words.
Hellish?
Chaotic?
Demonic?
She could literally swear the thing he called 'training' was just him punishing her for everything that she had ever done to him.
Because the pain wasn't normal anymore.
Before they started, he had asked her for permission.
And she had asked "Permission for what?"
His reply "To hurt you"
She had laughed, believing he wouldn't dare hurt her, because he had never tried to, because he would NEVER try to, she was sure of it.
Until he began to train her.
At first, he started with him artfully, dodging every punch she gave him.
Though she was fast....
He was faster.
And when she had given him the first punch after two hours, he had frowned and said he had not been concentrating and looking at her boobs that were bouncing so she had try to again.
After that, she found herself on top of him in her wolf form, teeth snarling and snapping at him though he managed to get out of her grasp and was laughing.
Later, he had said due to the fact she did not want to hurt Jordan, even though at a point, she would, she would have to dodge his attacks.
That way, during the fight, she would not lose it and either hurt him or change into her Alpha form.
So the next training had her in blindfolds, trying to not get stabbed.
Silver was deadly to them.
Extremely deadly.
So she KNEW he did plan to hurt her when he used a sword, knife and bullets on her.
At first, it was him nicking her with the swords to dodge far attacks at her sides to get her sides sharper and since they didn't heal fast, it burnt.
Bad.
Then the next one was the knife.
He had said she could try defending herself from him, but even when she tried, she ended up with cuts up her arm and fingers that she had to end up dodging everything.
The bullet (where Raven had no idea HOW in the goddess name he got a gun) had her running in her wolf form with him shooting.
According to him, he was using her smell, and sounds to figure out where she was and he demanded she his her smell again.
All this, made no sense to her.
The fight between her and Jordan was going to be in their wolf forms and no one was going to be blindfolded but she played along.
And though she had numerous scars and cuts after everything, he cleaned her up and slept next to her.
Like it was normal.
She knew that his way of training wasn't the normal one all werewolves did.
It ached her what sort of torture he had to go through to become as strong as he was right now because ever since the training, her senses were at high alert and she was wary about every single thing.
But Axel was always calm.
Always smiling at everyone, always calculated....
Maybe it was because Raven was new to the feeling, but she also suspected that he had been gentle with her when he had hurt her and that he had been holding out on her.
So she KNEW that whatever he had gone through, was way worse.
But he never complained, and never said a word.
And she never asked.
Something deep down said that it was obviously a topic he did not want to talk about, it was possibly his past that he had been trying so hard to keep from her and she knew if she asked, her instincts would end up making them fight....
And she did not want him gone.
The idea of waking up to him every morning and him dressing her up had seemed to fit in into her schedule and they always together so much that even Rin complained, much to her shock.
He had said she was not even around anymore and Elle missed her.
Axel, as usual being the ever nice person had told her this morning there would be no training and she was to have fun with Rin and Elle, ignoring her complaints about tomorrow being the challenge.
He said she needed to rest and after that, he walked away and luckily for him, her hand was still numb from the cuts of yesterday so she didn't punch him.
Now....
She stood some feet away from him, waiting for Rin and Elle watching Axel who was talking to some females.
They all gathered him, and Raven added in her head, shamelessly, laughing at everything he said while he tested his back under shades, his black hair gleaming with his stupid glasses still on.
She still had so many questions and one was why he dyed his hair but as usual, she did not want to push it.
Even though she wanted his snowflakes hair back and the stupid glasses off so she could look at his eyes.
As she stared, he slowly turned and looked at her, then smiled.
She immediately looked away.
As she turned, she saw someone wearing a big teddy suit and when the person reached her, the smell he was giving nearly made her puke "The fuck? Bro!"
The person removed the teddy head and pouted "Rae Rae"
She hissed "The fuck you wearing you pedophile?"
He sighed "It's Elle, I swear it. She wanted us to play a game and I didn't want to play and this was my punishment"
"Why didn't you just play the game Rin?" Raven asked "It can't be as horrible as...."
"The game is called 'Try and set Rin's tail on fire' and it is played exactly how it is called" He cut in.
Oh shit.
Raven chuckled "You give that girl so much authority over you. You should just be firm and tell her you don't want to play what she wants"
Rin frowned, folding his arms "And then she begins to cry and your Father has my head, okay"
"Awwww" Raven said, grabbing his cheeks and pulling it "Cute"
Rin gasped, pulling away "Rae... Did you just.... Did you just call me cute and not shout at me?!"
She raised an eyebrow there "Would you rather I kicked your balls?"
He immediately shook his head "No mam"
She nodded "Good, so shut up"
He saluted then added "It's Axel isn't it?"
She began to get red but folded her arms and looked away "Shut the fuck up"
"He's making you nicer, that's so cute...."
She reached out to punch him and he was already covering himself before she cursed and remembered her injuries, folding her arms again.
He gasped, now standing right "He's even made you stop punching me without reason!"
"I can't punch you because I have a goddamn cut okay!"
"You coulda kicked me but you didn't"
"What the fuck is wrong with you? Are you masochistic or something?"
Rin began to laugh first before he pulled her into a hug.
Raven thought she would die "Let me go you smelling rotten piece of shit! I swear...."
"He's bringing back the old you" He said, cutting her short as he looked down at her, smiling "I've missed it"
Old.... Old me?
Then he suddenly pushed her away "Shit, Elle is coming!" And wore the head back.
Elle who is sauntering to them stared at Rin suspiciously and then faced her cousin "Did he remove his head?"
Rin began to shake his head at Raven and she smiled "Nah, come here!"
Carrying the ten year old up and twirling her, she laughed before she blew raspberries on her stomach.
Elle laughed "Stop... Stop it!"
Then when Raven did, she wrapped her arms around Rae's neck and whispered into her ears "You can kill Jordan tomorrow you know. Not that you should, but I wouldn't mind"
Raven stilled at that as Elle kissed her cheeks then began to reach out for Rin.
He carried her as she smiled at Raven and said "Uncle Axel"
She had not seen him coming, or felt it, so when he was next to her, she suddenly held her breath "Hi Elle, Rin. Raven"
Elle tilted her head "Cousin Raven? Are you okay? You look blue"
Then she breathed out hard as she began to cough while Axel rubbed her back.
"Okay, let's go for our play date!" Elle yelled.
