Chapter 6 Sess
Anthony''s POV:
When Jennifer''s body tilted to the side, I couldn''t help reaching out to catch her.
As soon as she fell in my arms, my heart throbbed with concern. Her body was covered with blood and mud, but strangely, I didn''t find her dirty at all.
Whening to the Dark River Pack, I never imagined that I would meet my mate here. Today. I had seen her for the first time at the wee
ceremony. Although she was wearing old and torn rags, her beauty could not be concealed. The fragrance of mate bonding from her hit me like a
brick, knocking the breath out of me. My heart beat violently the moment Iid eyes on her.
However, I was careful not to show any reaction. After all, it was a public asion, and there were many eyes on me.
To my surprise, however, Jennifer''s reaction was also calm and collected. If any other she-wolf had realized that I was their mate, they would have
been so excited that they would have jumped up on the spot and shouted it to everyone.
Therefore, I was very satisfied with Jennifer''s reaction. Being from the royal family, I had seen a lot of beautiful she-wolves before, but not only was
my mate beautiful, she was also smart, rational, and self-conscious. She had all the qualities that I liked and appreciated.
Therefore, she would make an ideal partner.
In fact, I had never been interested in finding my mate. A mate was just a weakness that my enemies could take advantage of. I had something
important to do, and I couldn''t let a mate hold me back. However, my mother''s biggest wish was for me to find my mate. Ever since my father died in
battle, my mother was in poor health because she couldn''t take the loss. Recently, her condition had worsened. No one knew how long she would be
able to hold on
Now that I found my mate, I couldn''t let my mother die with regret. I needed Jennifer''s help to appease my mother. But it would just be a favor that
she would be doing me. I figured that I could talk to her about the situation and ask for her opinion. Even if we wouldn''t be mates in the future,
Jennifer would still...
"Anthony, you obviously like her. Don''t restrain yourself. This is a mate bond. It''s something you can control," Zane. my wolf, shouted excitedly in
my mind, interrupting my line of thought.
"I don''t want a mate,” I told him sternly.
"Things are different now. You have feelings for her. Don''t try to deny it. And stop using your mother as an excuse.”
"I don''t have feelings for her.”
"Fine! Then at least ept her for the sake of your mother and me. ept our mate!”
"Do you like her?” I asked curiously.
"Of course! When was thest time we saw such a strong-willed girl? She is also good at fighting
She doesn''t look like an ordinary werewolf. And just now, I saw the determination in her eyes. She wants to be stronger. She is a perfect mate for
you.”
I couldn’t deny that Zane was right. Jennifer''s abilities were indeed extraordinary. With the right training, she would be a force to be reckoned
with. That was why I decided to make an exception and let her participate in the trials.
I looked down at Jennifer, who was lying unconscious in my arms. I had never held a girl in my arms like this before. I was not used to it, so I handed
her to a servant behind me.
"Take her to her residence.”
The next morning, I arrived at the trial just when it was about to begin.
I nced around eagerly to find Jennifer, but there was no sign of her.
Yesterday, it seemed that she attached great importance to the trials, so it did not make sense for her to not show up. Was it because she was badly
injured yesterday that she couldn''te on time?
Everyone was looking at me, waiting for me to announce the start of the trials.
I cleared my throat and said, "The trial is dyed. Let''s wait until everyone is here."
Dissatisfaction crossed everyone''s eyes when they heard this.
"Why should we wait for a ve?" The crowd began to whisper among themselves to vent their frustration.
But I couldn''t care less what they thought. I was willing to give the talent I liked a chance, even if it meant making everyone else unhappy.
Finally, Jennifer rushed into the venue, panting for breath. As soon as she appeared, all eyes turned to her, and countless curses and usations
were thrown her way.
"You lowly ve! How dare youete?”
"You don''t have the right to make us wait!"
“You better kneel down and apologize to everyone!"
Surrounded by the crowd''s insults and taunting, Jennifer''s face went pale. I couldn''t help but frown. These people were being too noisy.
"Those whe make noise will be disqualified from participating in the trials,” I announced.
As soon as my voice fell, everyone shut up.
"You arete," I said, looking at Jennifer. "If it happens again, you will be punished."
"Yes, Mr. Jones,” Jennifer replied respectfully with her head down.
In fact, I was looking forward to her performance in the trials. I hoped that she wouldn''t let me down
"The trials begin!" the emcee announced loudly under my instruction
All the participating werewolves were divided into pairs. Each pair of werewolves would fight against each other, and the winner would advance to the
next round. In the end, only three werewolves would be selected to enter the elite training list.
In order to be ranked among the top three, everyone fought fiercely and desperately.

Jennifer fought like a warrior, without making any sound even when she was injured. With narrowed eyes, she attacked swiftly and brutally, without
caring about her own safety. I didn''t condone this sort of desperate fighting, but it proved that she was fierce and tenacious.
At the end of the first round, there were only four werewolves left.

Soon, the four of them stood in thepetition field. While all the four participants had been wounded in the previous battles, Jennifer also carried
the wounds that she had sustained yesterday. Out of the four of them. she was obviously in the worst condition.
And during this round, the other two
she-wolves ganged up to attack her.

Jennifer didn''t disappoint me. She was selected! But for some reason, when I saw the malepetitor help her out, I flew into a rage.
Jennifer panted and looked straight at me, standing in the middle of thepetition field in ragged clothes stained with blood.
I walked up to her and congratted her on her victory. "You did a good job today. I appreciate it.”
"Thank you. I gave it my best.” Jennifer smiled and wiped the blood off the corner of her mouth.
