Chapter 29. The Blessed One

Caleb’s POV

Inside the arena we quickly split into sparring pairs. I’m faced with my gorgeous mate, who waves a hand at me in a ‘come at me’ movement, but I must admit I’m kind of hesitant to charge at her.

Dad yells for me to get my ass moving, but before I can blink, she has charged at me and swept my feet from under me. The air leaves my lungs as I hit the ground, and Selena laughs. I quickly jump up and kick out. She jumps back, her expression vigilant and attentive. We meet in a flow of fist throwing and kicks, none of us getting the upper hand.

How is she so damn fast?

Selena moves with a dancer’s grace and a speed I sincerely envy her. She dodge my hit, crouch down and land a kick to knee, and I quickly switch position and grab onto her, throwing her over my hip. She flies through the air, flipping her body and landing on her feet, skidding to a halt.

As her head snaps to mine, her eyes are shining with pure happiness and unmasked pleasure
