My Personal Lycan King novel Chapter 56

VICTORIA'S POV

"Good morning, sunshine." I heard Alexander's voice as I opened my eyes.

"Good morning." I smiled before snuggling closer to him.

"Are you going somewhere?" I asked when I noticed him wearing a different pair of track pants and t-shirt than what he was wearing last night.

"Yeah, morning training. It's a routine for all of us to train and exercise in the morning. Would you like to join us?" He asked while roaming his hands in my hair.

"I am not a fan of training and exercising. But I would love to watch some sweaty guys with sexy abs without their t-shirts." I mumbled, forgetting that I was in front of my mate Alexander and not someone else. And let me say, a very jealous and possessive Alexander.

"Why would you want to look at other guys when your mate is so sexy and handsome?" He said, nuzzling his head in my hairs.

"Narcissistic much, are we?" I commented before getting up to freshen up quickly.

"By the way, I already asked someone to bring a pair of knee-length shorts and a top. It's over there on the couch. You can wear them when you come to the field." I heard Alexander saying before the noise of the door opening and closing echoed.

He must've gone out already. The daily routine of exercising and training? It's freaking 5:30 in the morning. 

After getting ready in the clothes that Alexander had asked someone to prepare for me, which were somehow exactly my size, I descended the stairs to reach the living hall.

'Now, who will tell me where this training and exercising room is?' I thought out aloud. 

It wasn't long before I spotted Alexander's mother coming from outside. What was her name again? Rosaline Roosevelt, right?

Jogging to her, I stopped before greeting her politely,

"Hello, mam, can you please tell me where is the exercising and training room?" 

"Oh dear, please drop the honorific. Just call me mother or mom or ma like Alexander does. You are his mate, which means you are my daughter-in-law, which indirectly means you are my daughter. You have no idea how much I craved having a daughter by my side. Now that Alexander has found his mate, I am gonna spoil you to my heart's content." She giggled, which Involuntarily made me smile.

I can see how much of a sweetheart she was.

"Thank you for your love, mother. I would love to be cared for and pampered by a mother." I replied, making her smile even wider.

"Umm...if you don't mind, where is the training room? Alexander said that he needed me there." I couldn't help but mutter with a bitter face.

"Oh dear, that is nothing important. I have gone through this. Since you are the to-be Queen, they are going to train you to make you stronger than most females in the pack and will make you learn some self-defense to take care of yourself. You don't need to go through all that so soon. And, what are you wearing? I bet these are someone else choices. 

Let me prepare something for you to eat before we can go shopping together. Ahhh... I finally got a daughter with whom I can go shopping." Queen Rosaline said before going upstairs.

"Well, that ends me with nothing." 

As I was roaming around the mansion again, I received a message on my phone.

"Sorry, I forgot to mention, you need to come to the backyard." Alexander messaged.

Sighing loudly, I reached the backyard, and to say I was surprised would be an understatement. 

Around 100 men were working out like true professionals. Some were fighting with each other, some were doing cardio exercises, while some were just practicing their moves. 

And did I mention, most of them were shirtless?

I looked to my left and saw around 50 or so girls doing the same as boys. There was one girl in the center that caught my eyes, who was giving commands to other girls on their stances, and I couldn't help but scoff at that. Yup, you guys guessed right. She was none other than Laila.

"If you are done ogling boys, then why don't you start practicing? I bet Alexander won't like it." I suddenly jumped when someone whispered these words in my ear from behind.

Turning around, I looked at the person and was visibly shocked when I noticed who it was.
