Chapter 149
I got up from the chair and pushed my hair back “I would rather defeat other werewolves in the trials than bicker with <b>you </b>here
Her words made me angry and annoyed but deep down I <b>knew </b>she had a <b>point</b>. Ineeded to show <b>Eros </b>that i was a strong woman in this era if I wanted to have him.
Oh, how i wish things were still the same as before. Found my second <b>mate </b><b>who </b>loved me, loved him return and we had <b>a </b>peaceful life.
“Now, if you will please excuse me.” I told a stunned Olivia and <b>walked </b>past her to my room. One thing i knew for sure was that the trials were happening today,
With precision, I grabbed a bag and threw in a few spare clothes, a towel, and a water bottle. I changed into another sneakers. and walked down the stairs.
Thankfully, I knew my way to the pack so I walked down the small path that led to the parkhouse a short distance away from the grand mansion.
When <b>I </b>got to the gates, that the security guard saw me and waved. I bet he was a little bit stunned to see me going to down the pack’s <b>road</b>. Previously it had been <b>Arthur </b>and I, but now it was solely me.
I bade him farewell and marched towards the open arena. A viewing center with chairs had already been constructed around therge open arena where the fight was going to happen.
The arena’s ground was filled with alot of werewolves, <b>and </b>not everyone knew me.
I looked through the crowd of spectators that was beginning to fill in the chairs, and caught sight of Arthur. He was holding a writing pad and a pen, scribbling something on a paper.
“Arthur!” I pushed my way through the growing crowd and met Arthur. He looked up at me with shock and whispered “What are you doing here?”
I shrugged, holding my bag closer “I just want to test out my fighting <b>skills </b><b>and </b>how well i’d improved in thest months,”
He shook his head, “Don’t do this, Eden. You are not even supposed to leave the mansion.”
I groaned, crossing my arms as i stared intently at him “So it is always okay for everyone to leave the house ande to the pack or go wherever, but I get to stay all alone in the mansion? Great right!” Arthur opened his mouth to say something but closed it again.
I knew I was going to get in. Arthur is a good friend and can’t say No to me easily.
“Alright, fine,” he grumbled.
I squealed and hugged him tightly. Afterwards he directed me to where other participants were seating. For a second he looked conflicted but quickly I reminded him of how he had trained over the months.
He nodded and told me to go before he changes his mind.
I looked at the participants and noticed that most were nervous but a few was smiling confidently. I rubbed my hands <b>as </b>i realized that this was going to be the first time in a long time since I fought someone.
But I shook <b>off </b>the feeling. This was my one chance to tell arrogant Eros and other persons that I wasn’t a weakling Arthur finally came to address us “Alright, everybody. The trials will begin in ten minutes. It’ll be a good way for you to showcase how much you have learned, how well you adapt <b>to </b>stressful situations, and in the future if you can <b>take </b>up big responsibilities as to <b>saving </b>our pack
He snapped <b>his </b>fingers in the air “Show your strength alright? but you are not supposed to inflict <b>any </b>serious injury on your opponent. This is simply a friendly spar. Understood?”
There was a stunned silence at his words. “Understood?” He repeated again
One of the boys raised his hand and asked, “But if we fight in a <b>friendly </b>way, how would we know how to fight rogues or
Lloguer 119
enemy packs<b>? </b>We will be only limiting ourselves
Arthur looked at him coldly. There won’t be a full medic team <b>on </b>standby, neither a group of supporters nor rule enforcers to save you from any untoward incident in a war. Real fights get ugly. This is just a friendly spar not a life and death fight. You get many more chances to have a real fight soon enough.
His <b>answer </b>silenced the young man who studied the floor.
<b>“</b>Anybody else has a question?”
Another girl raised her hand, “What does the winner get?”
Arthur answered “He or <b>she </b>gets to ask anything <b>as </b><b>a </b>reward from the Hybrid King”
That made <b>me </b>grin. After that, Arthur walked out of the room…
Soon it was time and we were instructed to enter the arena. The crowd erupted in loud cheers.
There were referees <b>stationed </b>on the four sides <b>of </b>the fighting open space. They stood in such a way that they would be able to see everything. The seats were filled to the brim and people were cheering happily and pping They looked so excited to witness the trial which made me feel nervous… The countless numbers of heads… And for a second, I felt like running away
However, my feet remained rooted to the ground. Arthur came and grouped us into 2 groups. We had groups: Green, and
Red.
Since we were 30 in number, we were to face one another for the first round.
My heart was pouding and I felt the heartbeat drown all the noise around me. “Your task is simple, you are to push the other team member to fall to the ground. Once their back touches the ground, you’ll be qualified for the next round.”
“At the count of three, the duel begins! One! Two! Three
And then chaos ensued. Everybody just ran at each other and they began pushing each other. Exclusive content from N?velDrama.Org.
