Estella woke up feeling more rested than she had in days. After a quick bath, she dressed and headed downstairs for breakfast. The rich aroma of food greeted her as she entered the dining hall. She sat down and began eating when one of the maids approached her.
"Lady Estella," the maid said with a polite bow. "Lord Crassus is not here. He left for the training building earlier."
Estella blinked, realizing he had gone ahead without her. She quickly finished her meal, not wanting to be left behind, and made her way toward the training building.
When she arrived, she stopped in her tracks, taking in the massive structure before her. The building was larger than she had imagined, built to accommodate both human and wolf forms.
The sounds of grunts, growls, and the impact of fists against flesh and wood filled the air, mingling with the scent of sweat and damp earth.
