Chapter 95


    Katy POV


    The top ten contestants were now pitched against each other. Only the she-wolves with alpha and


    beta bloodline remained, while the omegas were eliminated. We were all taken to a special ring for


    thepetition. I was not surprised when I saw Diana was with me.


    We were called to fight with each other not ording to who performed best or who had more


    points, but we were called by the draw of hat. I watched the girls fight. Each right action attracted


    points and each wrong one invited an infarction.


    Reba wasn’t called for a long time and it was obvious she was going to be pitched against me.


    I watched Diana fighting a girl who had barely made it to the top ten. She was in the ring giving that


    girl a bad time. She had hurled a series of punches at her, altering them with kicks. Diana was


    good, and the girl opposite her was not as strong. Looking at Diana, felt like she was taking out the


    anger of her defeat from me on that girl. When the girl fell on the floor, with bruises all over her face


    and split lips, I couldn’t help but pity her. If she was intelligent, she should quit now.


    In the end, Reba was called in the ring against me. She looked like she was waiting for this


    moment. I was waiting for it as well. There were many girls who were pitching for Reba to win.


    While she bounced lightly on her feet, I remained focused, my eyes locked on her. As the bell rang,


    the crowd’s noise swelled to a roar.


    We circled each other, looking for an opening. Reba initiated her first attack by throwing jabs at


    my head. One of her punches connected with my cheek, splitting my skin. Blood oozed, and she


    grinned. I wiped it with my sleeve and chuckled. “Is that all you have?” I challenged her.


    Enraged, she threw more punches at me, but this time I ducked and weaved to avoid them. She


    started getting short of breath. Seeing that, countered her attack with a powerful kick aimed at her


    ribs. It connected with a thud and the crowd gasped. Reba grimaced and tried to grab my


    extended leg to unbnce me, but I quickly moved out and she tumbled to the ground, her belly


    hitting the floor. I didn’t waste time and jumped on her. I straddled her, twisted her arms behind and


    forced her to submit. She shrieked in pain, struggling to get free, but I had outdone her.


    The coach came and blew the whistle for us to stop. I got up from her and the coach picked my arm


    up to dere me the winner. Reba lunged at me, angry as hell, but the coach stopped her. “You


    will be disqualified,” he hissed. She gritted her teeth and stopped.


    I knew that this wasn’t over yet. Luce was watching us intently, along with the others from a balcony


    that was built at a height. Ace was sitting there and our gazes locked. I saw him looking at me with


    wonder. I winked at him, and his lips curled up. Using that moment between us, I focused on my


    bond and tugged him. This time, his eyes widened in surprise and I knew he felt it. The first victory


    had the sweetness of honey.


    “This isn’t over!” Luce’s voice on the mic broke our reverie. “The winner of thispetition is going


    to fight the second winner. So in this case, Katy will fight Diana now.”


    I chuckled. Luce knew I was tired after fighting twice with strong opponents, but she was doing her


    best not to give me a chance to be with Ace.


    I wasn’t given any rest between the fight, and Diana jumped in the ring immediately.


    “Goddess!” she rasped. “I’ve been dying to fight you!”


    “Me too,” I replied in a monotonous voice.


    A roaring apuse around us was enough to show that the air was charged with tension.


    “Go Diana!” Reba shouted.


    As the bell rang, we moved towards each other with measured steps. Diana’s aggressiveness was


    apparent in her demeanor. She threw the first punch, a quick jab aimed at my face. I deftly dodged


    her and responded with a low kick thatnded on her thigh with a smack. She let out a snarl and


    attempted to kick me on my chest, but I grabbed her leg and twisted it, bringing her down. As she


    fell, I fell on her. She struggled, twisting her body, but I kicked her once more in her ass and she


    screamed in pain. I loosened my grip on her and she twisted and rolled, bring me beneath her. The


    next moment, her hands shot to my neck in a chokehold. I thumped on the floor to ept my


    defeat.


    The coach came running to us and pulled Diana away from me. He picked up Diana’s hand and


    lifted it, dering her the winner. I narrowed my eyes at her and walked out of the ring. From the


    corner of my eyes, I saw Reba and Luce jumping in victory. The whole crowd went berserk.


    Alicia came to me with a few more girls. “You just gave her the first task!” she growled. “Why?”


    I smiled and shrugged. “She was better than me. Let’s meet in the garden for the evening.”


    By the time I got to my room, it was already evening. I checked my phone to see if Kylie had


    responded, but she hadn’t. A lot depended on her message. Taking a ragged breath, I stepped in


    the shower, with Lily and Lilian fussing over me.


    For the evening, we were all supposed to go to the main garden where Diana would be with Ace.


    Because of what I had asked in the morning, she would get to spend an evening with him and even


    kiss him. Ara growled inside me in protest, but I remained silent.


    When I reached the garden, I saw an excited Luce and Reba talking animatedly about Diana’s


    win. I avoided the two and walked to Alicia. On my way, I saw they had built a beautiful canopy,


    adorned with flowers for Ace to spend the evening with Diana. Every girl in the Selection was


    looking green with envy. As for me, I wanted to rip Diana limb by limb.


    “Look, who’s here?” Reba giggled.


    “The wannabe winner!” Luce snickered.


    I saw Beau standing in the distance along with the king and queen, sipping wine. He was in deep


    conversation with them. Ace was also standing with them, looking lost.


    This was all Beau’s strategy. He didn’t want Ace to shine at all in front of his parents and so the


    moment Ace came, he must have called the witch. I hated parents like Soren and Cassie. How


    could they be so against their only son?

    A smallmotion at the entrance made me whip my head towards it. Diana entered the garden


    wearing a knee length blue dress with no shoulders. She had left her hair open and wore a small


    tiara over it. It was like she was showing everyone how she would look at the future Luna of the


    pack. When our gazes locked, she smirked at me, flicking her hair back. Then, making a show of it,


    she walked to Ace and hugged him.


    “I’ve been looking forward to this,” she said, batting her eyshes.


    Nervousness skittered down my spine.
