My Alpha Mate's Christmas Gift novel Chapter 11

　　Let’s Go For A Round, Coach!

　　Roxanne took a short shower and then changed into her gym outfit, clothes she always kept in the gym since it was a bother bringing it in every day.

　　After she was done, she went back to the training room, where her coach was still setting up the stage. She smiled, shaking her head slightly.

　　Even at over forty, Donald still preferred doing things like these himself. She was fine with him doing some heavy lifting, but at this rate, he would just tire himself out before he did anything meaningful with her.

　　“Oh, don’t look at me like that. This much is nothing. I can do this, train you, and still have energy to spare.

　　She smirked at these words.

　　“Sure you can” She stepped forward to assist him with what he was doing.

　　“I’m serious. In my prime, I could do this all day all by myself. Truly a beast!” He grinned widely.

　　“Sure” Roxanne smiled as she rolled her eyes slightly.

　　She wasn’t sure about his prime, but the current him couldn’t keep up with her, especially when she was this excited. He had to take breaks in between, alternate with another person, and also instruct her while he took his break. She had so much energy that it could be classified as a superpower at this point.

　　[Moments Later]

　　“Looks like it’s all set up. Let’s do a little round before going into full-on training.” Coach Donald said, entering into the ring.

　　Now, Roxanne knew the basics of many sports and she was trained since childhood in various types. However… The one she knew best, and had the greatest passion for, the one she usually practised with her gym coach every day for the past three years… Was Boxing!

　　The gym's ground floor was an everyday workout centre, but only the Regulars knew the true nature of the ‘PASSION OF LIFE’ Gym. Separated into many rooms on the top floor, it was a place where Boxing was everything.

　　Boxing, Roxanne’s favourite sport, and the one she was the best at. Since the game demanded brute force, tact, and endurance more than anything else, she was practically built for it. Her coach as a former pro Boxer, at least according to him, was skilled enough to make it to national level his prime. For someone in a countryside like Oregon, that was an impressive feat.

　　Roxanne didn’t want to go into Pro Boxing. She just wanted to keep playing, keep fighting… Just like her father. As a Pro Boxer, she would attract too much attention, something she avoided desperately. She didn’t want to stand out. She just wanted to fight strong opponents and keep getting better until she reached her limits which, by the looks of it, was still very far off.

　　Roxanne entered the boxing ring as well, picking up her headgear and gloves as she put them on.
