The Cold Mask

Chapter 39

Noah pov

1 year later

Wrapping the bandage around my hands became a familiar act to me

No longer was I the man who taught snob and ungrateful kids boxing

No longer was I the man that watched boxing matches from afar wishing that one day I would be up there in the ring making both my father's dream and mine become true

I became the man that did make his dream come true

I became the man my father wanted me to become

I became Noah the professional boxer that came to the final fight

The fight that would make my family proud of me

The fight that will make me a champion

Every person out there were on my side

They are sheering for the boxer who despite being at his first year in the competition he won every match until the finals

It was all over the news

I got on my feet and looked at the mirror in front of me

I looked at my more defined and bulky figure

I sighed thinking of the sweat and blood I dripped so my figure became that way

And I thought before I had a good body

I smiled remembering my princess

She always remembered to come to my every training and fight even with her hectic schedule after she released her medicine

The medicine was like a miracle to billions of people

Everyone was so shocked that finally the most feared disease was not so feared anymore

I was so proud of her

She also continued her training at expressing her emotions but we still have a long time

She was right sometimes she became drained and wouldn't want me by her side

And sometimes even her body would black out

But in the end of the day I always remembered the day when she confessed her love and all my worries went down the drain

My smile widened when the door opened and in came my princess

The love of my life...

Without any words, she came and pulled me in a bear hug

She always did that before every fight so she could give me a lot of oxytocin hormone, yes I finally memorized the name, so all my nervousness could go away

I hugged her back seeking all the warmth she could give me

"Cataleya I want to take you somewhere after the fight be ready

You and me, alone"

I told her chuckling when I remembered she told me the same exact thing before she confessed her love to me

"Only if you don't get hurt" she said while pulling back and looked at me in the eye

I cupped her face "Is my princess worried about me" I said almost cooing at her

She slapped my arms and walked out of the door hearing my laughter that echoed behind her

"I love you" I shouted behind her
