The Immortal Bound (The Immortals Series Book 1)

~Chapter 10~

This chapter is brought to you by Newt and Minho's teasings.

Minho tapped Newt in the shoulder as he said "Hey Newtty."
Newt flushed red in annoyance as he said "Call me that one more shucking time and I swear I will kill you in the most painful ways."

___________________________

For the next few months the princesses were trained very hard.

Each of them had their own personal trainer. Minho was very strict on Harriet. He made her run 30 laps every day, practice with her knife and her self defense combat.

Newt was a little soft on Sonya on the other hand. He allowed her breaks but was still pressuring her give all her maximum in training.

She practiced everyday how to fight against her enemies and to study her enemies movements.

But they didn't know that the strictest trainer was Thomas. He made Teresa run, practice defense combat, her archery skills, under water skills, and sword fighting.

Any time that she said she was tired Thomas would say sharply

"Do you think your enemies care that you're tired? By this rate you would've died!"

That pushed Teresa over her boundary and gave all her dedication to this training.

With every passing day Thomas saw her improvement.

Some days they wouldn't train. Instead, Thomas would tutor her in the history of Kingdoms, bloodlines, and complicated chemistry and physics equations.

Thomas began noticing that she was actually a humble person but with a fierce attitude. He began being a little, just a little nice to her.

Teresa noticed that vey quickly but didn't snap at him or push him away. As a princess, it was her duty to do anything for her country.

They began to respect each other. They wouldn't glare at each other anymore. Just nod. They stopped bickering at each other and fighting.

The others were surprised at this improvement but decided to stay quite. They were afraid of triggering them if they asked about their improvement.

But for disgrace, one day their improvement went to ashes.

During training, Teresa fought with Thomas in a sword combat. During sword practice she knocked his sword to the ground.

As they stared at each other Teresa stood up straight and gave Thomas her hand. Teresa finally learned to treat Thomas as a noble man and by offering her hand to help him up, it was a sign of Chivalry for Thomas.

For a moment Thomas was about to grab Teresa hand but he quickly realized he didn't have his gloves.

Skin to skin contact...

Instantly that triggered him.

He pulled his arm down towards him and glared at Teresa.

He could've killed her.

That did it.

Thomas immediately then yelled harshly

"Get your hand away from me!"

Teresa immediately pulled her hand away and stepped back. She looked at Thomas in shock.

He glared at her as he stood up and said almost yelling

"Never touch me! Understand?! Under any circumstances, never ever touch me!"

With that Thomas left storming towards the castle.
