I pledged that as soon as I had the baby/babies that I would get my body back, not just for my career, but for me.

Having twins isn't the best thing your body can go through.

So here I am, working my ass off at the gym where Demi trained me...

Nope, I'm not going to call it that. Here I am, at the gym where I will earn my body back.

I was on the treadmill, doing a dead sprint for as long as I could.

I timed myself.

Once I stopped I cooled down and checked the time. 3 minutes. Not bad.

I felt a tap on my shoulder and saw, the one and only Cara Delevingne.

My immediate instinct was to step out of her way.

"Oh, sorry. Am I in your way?" I asked and she just chuckled at me.

"No, I was asking around since I need a fighting partner, and the owner of this place says that you were the fighter that won the most fights in a row. So, I thought.... Uhmm do you want to spot me?" She asked and I smiled.

"Uhmm... actually, I'm not fighting anymore..." I said and she bit her bottom lip.

"Why not, May I ask?" She looked at me curiously.

"It's a long story." I said with a sad smile and she grabbed my hand, leading me to sit down.

Alpha followed, licking at my ankle as I sat.

I leant down and scratched under his chin.

"Well. You probably heard that Demi Lovato is in jail..." she nodded.

"I'm the cause of that." I sighed and Alpha jumped onto my lap.

I petted him as I talked.

"When I was pregnant with my two girls, Demi pushed me to keep fighting, insisting that I wouldn't get hurt. At the time she had tricked me into signing a contract that stated that I was her fighter and that I had to do as she said. She threatened me, and I was scared... so for weeks I fought. I couldn't even tell my fiancé's or Wives that I was pregnant." I spoke and she sighed.

"Fiancés? Plural?" She asked and I nodded.

"I'm in a polyamorous relationship." I smiled.

"All girls." I said and she smiled.

"Girls rule." She said and I nodded, smiling.

"So that's why I'm not fighting anymore." I said and patted Alpha's head.

"Well. You won't be fighting for her, Y/N. You'll be fighting for yourself. Plus, it's just for fun, not for money." She said.

"I just want a few pointers and maybe some practice." She said, giving me pleading eyes.

"Okay. Meet me in ring 3. I'll get my gloves." I said and she smiled, watching me walk away.

I came back and she gave her all, I blocked and dodged everything.

She had a wicked uppercut and a fast jab.

"You're good, Cara. Just don't hold back. I can tell your hesitant." I said and she nodded as she packed up her things.

She took me by surprise as she hugged me.

"Thank you so much, Y/N. And if you ever need anything, anything at all, I'm there." She said, making me smile.

"Your welcome Cara." I hugged back and she gave me her number.

I checked my phone to see if Kehlani was still coming, and she walked in with her workout outfit on.
