| CHAPTER 39 : USE YOUR ABILITIES |

When King Alpha says 'fix you' he meant increasing your workout by two more hours. He gave me another set of workouts that consisted of one-hour jogging, dumbbell lifting, then another hour of jump rope.

So in total, six hours of working out every day.

How was he acting towards me, you ask? Terrible. He got more bossy, commanding and pushy. God knows what crawled up his ass but I wasn't enjoying this one bit.

I thought when he said he'd fix me, he would mean teaching me some magic spells or buying me a wand like in Harry Potter. This is the total opposite of Harry Potter.

The same routine continued for a week. I would work out six hours in the morning and then completely pass out at the night. My legs felt like Jell-o and my muscles cramped and ached all over. On the brighter side, I was getting abs.

My appetite increased and I would ask Griselda to bring me snacks every second after making sure King Alpha wasn't there to mock me on my choice of food.

Drew would sometimes sit beside King Alpha and amusedly watch me nearly die during my workouts. Levi commented on how lean I looked and said I probably gained some muscles. I haven't seen Katia in a really long time.

They still didn't succeed in catching Casper and I have no intentions of going back to the library or staying alone in a room where he can grab me again. The bruise thingy on my neck seemed to be healing quickly too.

So in the end, everything was going almost perfectly. Except you know what? You guessed it. King Alpha!

His strict and authoritative behaviour drove me nuts and I had to stop myself from reaching out and throttling him sometimes.    

"How many days more do I have to continue like this?" I asked in the middle of my fifty-sixth push-up, my hair plastering onto my sweaty skin, "I'm pretty sure I'd have Dwayne Johnson's body in a few days."

"Dwayne Johnson." King Alpha scoffed, mockingly, scrolling through his phone, not even looking up from his screen. "You wish."

"I'm serious," I said, falling flat on my stomach and catching my breath, "When do we get to do the fun stuff?"

"Fun stuff?"

"Yeah like breaking some vases, moving things with our mind, lighting someone's head on fire. Can we fly too?"

"No." He gave a sour look. "We can't fly."

A sigh came out of my lips, "I'm sick of doing your stupid workouts."

He didn't blink, still staring at his phone.

"Are you trying to ignore me now?"

He didn't look at me.
