My Alpha Mate's Christmas Gift

Chapter 12

Even after throwing several of her attacks, Roxanne showed no sign of slowing down. She kept

using her right fist for jabs and her left for hooks. Donald diligently dodged the ones he could, while

blocking the rest. But…

“Crap, my limits are beginning to catch up to me… Dammit” Donald winced as he barely managed

to dodge a volley from her right.

He took a few steps back in retreat, unable to hit so many hits all at once in direct succession. He

huffed as sweat dripped from his chin and his muscles ached from keeping his hands up for so long

while receiving so many attacks at once.

Roxanne dashed forward, not letting him catch his breath as she quickly raised her fist, and with a

powerful thrust, launched it at Donald’s face.

“Shit!” He thought.

He quickly raised his guard, but even with that, he wasn’t quick enough for a complete block. Most

of the impact was sent to his body as he recoiled due to the shock. He remained stunned for a

moment, giving Roxanne the opportunity to launch another full powered blow.

This time, the hit landed on Donald’s face, sending him crashing to the ground. In a powerful thud,

his body landed on the staged platform.

“Donald down. Roxanne takes the first round.” The referee declared.

Roxanne smiled as she took deep breaths to calm herself. Perspiration covered her entire skin as

she smiled, looking at Donald who winced due to the hit she landed.

“Sorry coach” She said, stretching her hands toward him.

He grabbed it and smiled as she pulled him up, grunting a bit.

“Nah, don’t be. I lost fair and square” He said, groaning a little while rubbing his jaw, the place

most affected by the impact of her hit.

“That you did, heh.” She grinned from ear to ear.

“Will you stop that? The match isn’t decided yet, you know? We’ll see how you fare during the

second round.” He said, bending to take the water he kept just outside the stage.

“Ooh, someone is a site loser” She smirked.

“Tch” He let out in a mock annoyed fashion.

They both laughed as they took a short break in anticipation for the second round. As Roxanne

gulped down her water, Donald stared at her.

“Such monstrous strength… Unbelievable. She’s even more powerful than the last time.” He

thought within himself.

Roxanne’s great prowess was amazing, coupled with her growth speed which was beyond normal,

to call the combination insane would be an understatement.

Donald, as the owner and manager of the entire gym supervised many of his Regulars. However,

Roxanne was the only one he personally practised with. Out of all the other coaches, he was the only

one who handled her training. Why was that the case?

Sure, he and Roxanne were very close, almost like family. However, the reason he was the only

one who coached her and engaged in combat training with her was because… He was the only one

with the ability to keep up with Roxanne.

She far outclassed everyone else in the gym, all the regulars knew her and some had even fought

with her. None of them came out unscathed. She won against them every single time. He was the only

one who managed to win against her, but from the match he had with her today… It was evident that

she would soon surpass him by far. Or maybe that was the case already.

In any case, he was still her coach. As such, he had to always have something to teach her, and

that meant he couldn’t lose to her… Not yet.

As he drank some more of his water, he closed his tired eyes. Next time for sure… He would win.

Roxanne laid on her bed as she smiled. A slight bruise was on her cheek as she slightly rubbed it.

“Looks like I’m still no match for Coach” She said to herself.

He managed to win, turning the tides against her at the last minute. A truly impressive man

deserving of Roxanne’s respect.

After the match, they had regular training and did a few sets before she went home for the day,

nothing out of the ordinary. She freshened up, ate, read for a while and chatted with her friend, Betty.

Before she knew it so much time had passed.

She looked out her window, it was dark out already. She didn’t have to go anywhere for her

escapades this night, so she appreciated the view of the night sky from her bed. The full moon glowed

majestically as it seemed to draw her attention to it’s strange glow.

“I wonder…” She smiled, cutting her thoughts short before she even began.

As she closed her eyes, she felt all the exhaustion of the day suddenly begin to get lifted off of her

as she felt a warm embrace permeate throughout her body. Slowly, she drifted off to sleep, unaware of

the events that happened in the dead of night.
