Goddess Of The Underworld.
The Gym
My internal body clock wakes me before the sun, and I’m disoriented from therge cloud bed and thick curtains that block out any of the moonlight from the room. It takes me all of a minute to remember everything that happened yesterday, and I desperately need to work out to get rid of all of these emotions floating around in my head. As soon as my feet hit the floor I be very aware of the fact that I have no panties on and only an overlyrge shirt of Haiden’s. I make my way to the bathroom to relieve myself and then decide I’m going to try and find Aleisha’s room to borrow some clothes, maybe even find my phone, wherever that went. Opening the door to the hallway I’m surprised to see fourrge men sleeping on the floor outside. They’re all crammed together as if they wanted to be as close as possible to the door,ying half on top of each other andpletely blocking my way through. I sigh and kneel down to the closest one. Noah. I shake off all the unwanted thoughts roaming around my head and ce my hand on his shoulder. His lips part with a long-contented sigh as he unconsciously wriggles his way closer as if he’s chasing the warmth of my hand.
I whisper, not wanting to wake everyone. “Noah.” His eyes fly open, staring straight into my soul with those green orbs. He sits up abruptly, knocking Levi’s head off his stomach to the floor with a thud, but he doesn’t wake. “Are you okay, little Luna? Did something happen? Are you hurt?” His eyes dart around for any lurking danger before they settle back on me with a tilt of his head.
“I’m okay!” I whisper yell with my hands raised. “I just wanted to get through to find my clothes.” I point to the pile of bodies blocking my exit.
“Oh, okay, yeah, of course.” He stands and starts moving his brothers to the side making a narrow path between them. He holds out his hand for me to take but I’m not ready for that. The previous events are still way too fresh. After an awkward minute he drops his hand with a half understanding smile and starts walking in front of me. He rubs his eyes and yawns along the way.
“What time is it?”
I shrug as I make my way to his side. “Maybe four. That’s usually when my body tells me to get up.”
“That’s ridiculous.”
“Sorry…” I only feel a little bad. They did bring him here without my consent after all. We stop out the front of Haiden’s room before he gives me a sly smirk.
“He kept all of your stuff in his room.”
I roll my eyes. “Of course he did.”
The room is big, not as big as the one I stayed in but still big. Its decorated in cks and navy blues and at the end of his bed I see a small bag with my things. I quickly grab out my training bra, shorts, a pair of panties and my joggers. With Noah still standing by the door and not wanting to wake the others going down the hall again I decide to just use the bathroom in here to change. It’s simple, spacious, ck and white marble with a shower, toilet and sink. I strip off the shirt and leave it on the sink as I don’t see a

wash basket. When Ie back out Noah is still in the same spot, like he was trying to gain powers to look through walls. His eyes go wide and then the green in them dulls to almostpletely ck.
“You’re beautiful.” Hawk’s deeper voice says as he takes in my appearance.
“Uh, thanks.” I look down at my well used gym fit.
Noah shakes his head slightly, as if he’s trying to gain back control.
“Sorry. He’s kind of obsessed.”
“He’s sweet.”
His eyes flicker from green to ck and back again, clearly having an internal battle with his wolf so I quietly try to make my way past him.
“Where are you going?” His hand shoots out to grab my arm and I swear I feel a slight tingle of electricity from the contact. Noah stares at the point where we connect for a long moment.
“I’m going to train.” I gently remove my arm and start out the door. He follows, hot on my heels.
“Great, I’ll join you.”
“You don’t have to, you should get some more rest.”
He moves to my side with a long sigh he says, “I would like to, if you’ll let me, please. Hawk and I thought we would never find our mate, and now you’re here and not just ours but my brothers too. Which means we’re going to be fighting for your time as it is. I just…I’d like the opportunity to spend some time with you, please.”
From what I’ve gathered in this short amount of time, Noah wears his heart on his sleeve. He’s not afraid to tell me exactly how he’s feeling or what he’s thinking.
“Okay then.” I give in, because really, what’s the point in fighting with an Alpha? They do what they want either way.
“Do you want to use the gym or the training grounds?”
I remember Aleisha saying they had a full gym but I hadn’t had the chance to see it yet as we had been training outside,
“The gym might be nice, it’s a little cold this morning.”
He closes the distance between us so his arm brushes along mine as we walk through the house. His wolf emits a serious amount of warmth, and I begin to wonder if they even need nkets when they sleep with how much heat he’s giving off. He leads me down a set of wide stairs to a basement that opens up into a
