I hold my breath as our queen settles in the seat beside mine in the overcrowded arena. It took her hours to dress up for the occassion of course She had in make sure that her elegance is unrivalled, it’s the only thing she can manage doing without making a shameful mess.
“Do I look like a reputable queen!” She asks, desperate for our compliments as usual.
“You do” Fenris simply says and she smiles shyly
There are over a thousand eyes staring up at us, and more intently now that
at she has showed up. I bet they are curious to see if we truly love the idiotic queen. Unlike my brothers I am tired of purting up fake shows to avoid being labelled as rueful or ungentlemanly.
It’s no longer a secret that our queen is an insufferable fool. No one truly expects us to be madly in love with her
Henry rises to welcome the crowd, royal guests included, to the start of the seven day event.
“Greetings, greetings to the citizens of all kingdoms from every corner of these vast lands. Your presence in this Arena of greatly appreciated by our great Kings He pauses to give way for the thunderous applause.
“I took an oath on my mother’s grave that you will not be disappointed for this great day you shall witness the wrath of claws and swords, the spatter of fiercest blood and the sheer rage of the most ferocious warriors as they clash each other for your amusement! May their names live through ages and their moments adorn the highest of places!” He pauses to give room for another round of cheers.
“With that I present to you the great men of valour” ends and the cheerful crowd applauds once more, much louder this time.
A man standing next to him blows a trumpet and the much awaited warriors make their way towards the open field at the centre of the arena. They all have the same hardened looks, muscular bodies and tall structures, the common features of the greatest warriors.
Ban as they march towards the field. I notice one that stands out. The entire crowd seems to notice her too. Even with her body encased in a shimmering armour, her innocent beauty still manages to charm our eyes.
Her feminine features are rather enticing, and totally unfit for ruthless battles. Her face and hair are hidden under a metallic helmet. Somehow I find myself wishing she could take the damn belmet off. I have no doubt that her face is enchanting-
It’s obvious that she is human, otherwise she wouldn’t be wearing armour or carrying a sword. Werewolves fight with their strength and claws, except when fighting humans as a fight against someone with a silver blade would be easily lost
“She will die in her first match, I am sure of it Our queen matters in a voice filled with envy. “I doubt she can even swing that sword she is carrying” She adds with a snort,
Fenris did tell us about her demand to have our mate executed once she is found. Her envy is what fuels her most hideous demands. It’s disgusting how she cannot stand watching another woman shine. She immediately wishes them death.
But now that she has mentioned it, I am honestly worried that the beauty won’t survive the battles. I am sure she got some training, but she seems to have a kind demeanor on top of being human. Her opponents will take advantage of it.
‘Do you think she t will make it?” Garren asks me in a in a hushed voice.
I don’t know. She may be more skilled than she looks.” I answer in a voice strained with concern.
Everyone except our queen appears edgy as the officials in charge of the tournament guide the warriors into lines and into pairs of their respective

It was expected, the officials always aim to eliminate the weakest, especially the humans, first by paining them with the most formidable werewolves. That ensures that the battles that will follow are ominous, the best against the best
The warriors step out of the field leaving the first two opponents. The duel begins and the first human quickly gets eliminated. He lumps out of the battlefield with a bleeding leg and a heavily swollen face

Taking note of her sillness the wolfman sends his three pronged trident flying, aiming to impale her.
She only moves her upper body and the trident flies past, harpooning the wooden harrier behind her with great force
Irate the wolfman dives to grab the lady warrior but she dodges and uses has own momentum against him, propelling him with a kick to the back He smashes against the barrier, almost getting skewered by his own trident,
Dared by the shock, he takes time to shake off his stupor. Bewildered by the cleverness of the beautiful warrior, the crowd change their chant.
Finish him! Finish him” The chant in union.
But the humiliation prompts the wolfman to shift into his wolf form. His body contorts as his fingers turn into vicious claws and he charges. My heart races in anticipation of the girl’s ruin.
But she dodges every one of his blows with incredible speed, her movements swift and well calculated. The werewolf keeps charging and swinging. and grows tired and frustrated with every miss. Finally he begins to huff. She takes the opportunity to deliver her blow.
The crowd cheer in awe as the hilt of her sword strikes the werewolf’s forehead and he stumbles back. With a swing of the sword she slices a part of his lower limbs. He finally fall to the ground with a deafening wail.
She can choose to finish him, but she steps back, satisfied with her win.
We applaud the little warrior’s incredible victory while our queen bitterly clenches her as. No other human has ever made it past the first round of barles in the previous tournaments. Her assounding fight will be the subject of gossip in every gathering for the next several months.
“With those wits and skills she may as well win the tournament.” Fenris comments, sounding equally as thrilled.
“I was hoping she would take off the helmet” Carren says, watching the girl walk out of
It’s shocking how she doesn’t bother to hide her envy.
“You all sound so enamoured by her. She accuses “But I am sure her next opponent will wreek her, hopefully snap her long neck and spit on her face.” She adds wickedly.
I sigh in relief as I make my way out of the battlefield and Ezra embraces me with a bright smile plastered across his face.
