“Boys!” She rolled her eyes again and finally took out a sports bra. She took off the top the was wearing and threw it on the floor before she wore her bra and then climbed down the steps and came held my hand, “let’s go.”
I walked out with her but she paused in front of the door opposite to her bedroom and opened it. “Klaus it sleeping! He should come train too! Wake him up.” She crossed her arms.
I hesitated but she was right. He needed to train. I walked inside and thankfully, his room was normal. The only obsession he had with was cars, that I could deal with.
His eyes fluttered open before I could wake him up. He instantly sat up when he saw me. “What do you want, at,” he looked at the clock, “five forty-five in the morning?”
“It’s time to train.” I told him.
“The training time for kids is in the evening.” He pointed out.
“Not during vacations. Get up and get dressed, it’s an order.” I crossed my arms.
“Yes, Alpha.” He pressed his lips together and went to his bathroom. I shrugged off the hurt. One day, I’ll get him to call me Dadda too.
I wanted five minutes for him, till he brushed his teeth and got dressed. Viktoria was standing outside with Kol who looked excited at the prospect of training early in the morning.
“I called Kol too, Dadda, is that okay?” Viktoria asked me, holding my hand again.
“Of course, Princess.” I smiled at her. I walked with all the three kids to the training grounds where all the adults were just warming up.
“Go run twenty rounds around the field.” I told them, going easy in the start.
“Twenty?” Viktoria’ eyes widened.
“Yes.” I nodded.
Her shoulders drooped. “I can’t run that much, Dadda.” Her lower lip jutted out and she widened her blue eyes at me.
I steeled my heart.
“I’m not budging on this Viktoria. You have to train to become strong.” I shook my head.
She huffed and nodded at her brother before the three of them were off.
I joined Andrei who was leading the run of the adults. It was too slow for my liking. “Everyone will keep up with my pace.” I said and started running at a decent speed.
“I was expecting you to sleeping in today.” Nat said.
“Can’t skip training.” I replied. “You are back on the Beta duty. I want reports on every important thing I’ve missed on my desk by two. By tomorrow morning, I want reports on how everything goes on in the pack now and any new projects that are going on or are going to start soon.”
“Yes, Alpha.” She replied with a grin. “It’s good to have you back.”
“Thanks.” I smiled.
“Andrei,” I called him and he came besides me. “During vacations, the kids will practice in the morning as well. Today is fine but I want everyone from tomorrow. I want a report on the pack’s security detail and patrol system and then a separate one for conflicts with other packs or Kingdoms in time I wasn’t here.” I doubt that was the case but if Ava had to go through so many problems because of people within our pack, I didn’t have much faith in other packs.
“Yes, Alpha.”
“Mikhail,” I called him next and he came up beside me. “Any update on Adrik?” I was sure that he knew I was back no. Which meant that the deal was off from his side. And it was the same for me. It was about time that he gets what he deserves.
“The last time he was spotted, it was eight months ago in a small town Russia. He has seemed to disappear ever since.”
“I want more information. I want you to go through each and every lead. I don’t care where he is in the entire universe, find him! We won’t rest till we find him. He has lived long past his time now. It’s about time he gets his karma.”
“Yes, Alpha,” he replied, his eyes shining with excitement at my train of thought.
We had finished about a dozen of rounds around the ground and I picked up my pace, ignoring the groans of everyone else.
“Algebra.” I called him next. He was huffing and puffing as he tried keeping up with me. “I want a report on the pack finances. I want the accounts of every single penny earned and spent. And I want reports of Volkov Corps. finances too.”
“Yes, Alpha.” He breathed before he fell back again, not able to keep up.
“Symon.” I called. “I want reports on the people. What is the general thoughts of the people of the pack regarding all the rules and policies in the pack right now and about the unrest about the ruler. I want another report on the current education system and your suggestions.”
“Yes, Alpha.”
“Max.” I called next. We were on the last round. I looked at the kids, they were slacking off. They were still on their seventeenth round and were ready to pass out.
“I want a report on the foreign relations. I’ve asked from reports from everyone, you will go through them too and I want your inputs.” I told him.
“Yes, Alpha.” He nodded.
And then I stopped.
Every single person was out of breath and sweating buckets. Too bad.
“Today everyone will spar. Take your partners and begin. The ones who lost will train for two more hours.” I announced and then jogged away to the kids.
Niklaus was doing alright and Kol was trying to keep up with him. Viktoria was hardly walking when I reached her.
“I … c-cant.” She panted and then stopped, placing her hands on her knees, shaking her head.
“There is nothing you can’t do, Princess. It’s your last round. See Niklaus and Kol are running too.” I looked at the boys and they were walking.
“It’s a run, not a walk.” I shouted after them, making them pick up their paces.
“Bu-but they… are b-boys.” She was too breathless.
