Chapter 0279 Thats not for you to be concerned about , I nearly growled Just let me work out without you breathing down my neck .


    1 turned away and once again , hobbled .


    This time though , he let me g I decided to work out with the weights .


    It would give me a chance to sit down , and I can still get a decent workout in .


    1 started with the smaller weights .


    I sat on the bench and grabbed a 30 pound dumbbell .


    After a few sets , I grabbed an even bigger size and started another set .


    Looking around me , I saw a ton of jacked men and a few jacked women working out their arms with giant weights that were bigger than my body .


    It was pretty intimidating to watch .


    I shook my head and continued my own sets , grabbing bigger weights as I progressed .


    I wasnt on my leg at all , but as time went on , it was getting difficult to ignore the pain in ankle .


    my Youpeting ? A voice asked from another bench nearby .


    It was a woman , and she was adding giant weights , getting ready to do some bench work .


    She nced in my direction , waiting for my response .


    Realizing she was talking to me , I nodded .


    Uh , yeah , I told her .


    What pack you from ? Redmoon , I replied .


    She nodded , her eyes scanning me like she was sizing me up .


    Come spot for me , she demanded .


    I was taken aback by the forcefulness in her tone ; she wasnt giving me a choice , that was a fact .


    I wanted to tell her that I could barely stand , let alone spot her .


    But I didnt want to see weak ; I would just have to fight through the pain .


    I stood , trying not to look as though I was in a crazy amount of pain , and scurried over ot her .


    I didnt want to hobble because then she would know .


    I stood behind her , reaching out to grab the weights if necessary .


    Sheid down on the bench , grabbed each side of the weight , and lifted it up ; her muscles protruding as she did so , making me realize she was a lot tougher than she looked initially .


    Are youpeting too ? I asked , trying to keep my mind off the pain in my foot Yup , she murmured .


    Im Tabitha , but most call me Tabby .


    As she said her name , she grunted as the weight came down on her .


    She pushed it back up with another loud grunt .


    Im from the Lakewood pack .


    Ive heard of their pack ; they were prettyrge and toughpetitors .


    Im Judy , I replied .


    She grunted again as she lifted the weight in the air , but this time when it came back down it was a lot faster than she intended and I heard her gasp .


    I had always been a quick responder when it came to things like this ; the second I realized she wasnt in control and weights were mming down on her , I grabbed the weights and stopped them from crushing her seconds before they actually did .


    By doing so , I heard my ankle snapping and pain shoot up my leg once again , nearly paralyzing me .


    Tears stung my eyes , and I quickly linked them away as I ced the weight back on the hook .


    25 Tabby sat up , her hand on her chest as she panted .


    Youre pretty good , she said .


    Thanks .


    I nodded , biting my lower lip until I tasted blood .


    Yeah , no worries , I squeaked out .


    I need to run .


    Ill see youter .


    It was nice meeting you.


    I started to hobble away ; each step was more painful than thest .


    I couldnt imagine how much damage I did to my ankle and now I fear I might not be able toplete it because of it .


    I started towards the exit , but then I felt a warm coat draping over my shoulders and before I knew what was happening , I was airborne .
