...Ulric's P.O.V...

I was in the shed with the boys, sanding the furniture we had just crafted from wood when I hear a motorcycle pull up. My eyes immediately lifting to see a tiny all black figure, climbing off a red and white Ducati. She pulled off her helmet, shaking her long caramel, unzipped her leather jacket and hung it over the seat of the bike. She wore a plain black Tee with black denim jeans and black Doc Martins. I folded my arms in front of my chest, admiring the view as my father walked out to meet her, shaking her hand and introducing my mother.

"Ulric? Clean up and meet us in my office," he orders as my mother ushers her inside.

I knock gently at his door, "enter," my father's voice replies, all calm and composed.

I hear her heart rate spike as I walk in - now with a shirt on. I know I'm not the only one that can hear her thunderous heart banging away, yet, she gives away no indication of her nervousness. Our eyes meet with a jolt of lightning between us and she slightly smiles at me.

"You look beautiful Ryder," I say before sitting in the chair next to her. I hear her gulp as her eyes grow wide. Secretly, I'm happy I was able to throw her from her composed exterior.

I look up at my mother's smirk on her face as her eyes flit between us. Damn perceptive wolves.

"So, as I was saying..." my father continues, "we have some females that refuse to think outside their comfort zone, it's important to both Isla and I that everyone in our community can protect themselves. The world is just not a safe place anymore and I'd like them to know basic self-defence, can you teach them that?"

"I can sir," she nods her head.

"However, there are stronger woman... in our tribe... that could do with some extra pushing."

"So what if, I put together a program for beginners, mediums and high-intensity training in the mornings? Say 10 am? With the option of self-defence training, Monday's, Wednesday's and Friday evenings... is 5 pm okay?"

"Perfect, however, you may have some resistance from some of our more 'athletic' women," Ryder grins widely.

"As to be expected."

"Fantastic, so as we said before Ulric joined us, you have one month to improve our females."

"Yes sir," she nods in understanding, "do we start tonight?"

"If you would like... Ulric, please show Ryder here to the training yard."

"It will be my pleasure," I got up and walk to the door, holding it open for her as she leans forward and shakes mum and dads hands. Mum shooting a sneaky wink in my direction, that woman is incorrigible.

As soon as the office door closed, I pushed her harshly against the wall. She squealed in surprise at my dominant action and I pressed my lips against hers. Ryder slid her arms up around my neck and leaned into me as our tongues softly grazed against one another, pleasurable shivers rocketing through my nervous system.

"Hey, Ul? What do you want us to do with th... whoops... ahh, never mind, I'll ask Roland." Ashley had walked around the corner at the wrong time, immediately halting our steamy first proper kiss. She giggled seeing my annoyance, I extend my elbow and she looped her arm in mine.

"I better show you the training yard but I'm not finished with you or our kiss."

"Good," Ryder swallowed hard, pressing her lips together tightly as we walk outside.
