The Beta's Regret (Eden and Eros)
Chapter 150

Chapter 150

The first round ended with me pushing my opponent to the ground. It was easy and effortless. We were left with 15

constestants.

Most of my group members from Red scaled through the round.

After that, we were told to take a 5 minutes break before the next round begins. The crowd screamed excitedly, hailing some contestants they knew.

No one knew me so I just hung my head low and blended with the other contestants,

Second round started, and it was more tense. This time it developed into an unfriendly spar as nobody wanted to loose. The lady with me threw a punch but missed, and so I took the opportunity to kick her legs and she fell dirt-faced to the ground. The referee blew the whistle for the third round. It was bloody and we didn't replace in groups anymore. It was individual, two contestants alone on the podium.

When it got to my turn, the referee had barely said "start" when the lady ran at me and began punching me viciously.

I tried to fight back but she grabbed my hair and fought like crazy. I was pissed and calculated my moves. I managed to pull her hands off my hair and dodged her hit while driving a punch straight into her abs.

She fell to the ground with a thud...and suddenly the crowd cheered in my favor. They were hailing me! Arthur stood proud by

a wall.

A smile etched on my face as I felt welcomed and respected. I thought to prove myself more in the final round.

I looked around for Eros and knew he wasn't around. Probably, he had more important things to do than watch us fight and bicker with each other.

I won another contestant, and had to face a hefty young man. The crowd was now anxious because it was going to be the first time a female would be facing a male.

I was scared at first but then I thought of the times Lyra had bullied me. Truly no one was going to protect me and I needed to fight this fight and prove to the whole world that I was capable.

He was strong, and easily threw me against the nearest wall. I couched to floor and decided to use the pain as a motivation.

When he came closer, I collected sand in my both hands and threw it at his face.

He shrieked and fell to the ground, but I was not done yet. Going behind him, I closed my hands around his necks, holding him trapped at my elbow joint with my hand before hitting him repeatedly. "Damn you!" he hollered before freeing his self from my grasp.

I advanced again but this time she was quick. He thrust his leg out, making me stumble. I was able to stop myself mid-way from falling, and pulled myself back again as he whirled us both around.

I skittered a few steps but luckily due to the sand, I could stop myself from going any farther.

His leg came flying at me from the side, my ears prickled when the light breeze slapped my left ear. I did not have time to hit him so I just ducked and his leg went straight horizontally that I grabbed with all of my might and tried to pull her down. He was resilent and pushed himself upon me. The impact almost made me touch the ground and I saw the referee kneel down on the ground to get a better look.

But I had not come this far to be defeated by a cheater. So. gritting my teeth, I pulled up again and braced myself for the attack.

"My name is Shaun" he muttered, thumping his fists like an angry gorilla. His throws and punches hurt like hell.

It was great that I had Tiara with me who could help me recover from the pain and focus on counterattacks, but nonetheless, i was already hurt badly.

*Not

"Not so nice to meet you," 1 gritted, preparing for any of his move. However he said. "i am going to enjoy breaking you

completely, so much that you'll be scared of fights in the future."

With that he blindly hurled a punch at me But this time I was ready. I ducked and punched his stomach.

"Give up!" I yelled but Shaun only laughed.

"Against you woman, no way!"

He ran towards me. I tried to get up on my feet and step away just in time as he came rushing towards me.

I kicked his and he went down on his knees in pain. Not wanting to waste time, I shoved him to the ground but he managed to push his leg to the side and made me lose my footing.

"She was right. You are a cruel woman!" Shaun muttered and I wondered who the "she was as I tried to fight the fresh wave of pain that invaded my senses.

I felt warm blood trickle down my neck because he grabbed my neck in a chokehold and his sharp claws were digging into my neck. He threw me hardly to the ground, and I struggled to stand up but Shaun was faster.

He used my trick against me, gathered a handful of sand and blew it in my face.

I closed my eyes just in time to block the sand from getting in my eyes but missed on seeing his punch that hit me in the stomach again.

This time, I puked blood.

"He is injuring her internally" I heard somebody's voice as I lost my balance, while gripping my stomach as hard as I could.

I saw the warm blood trickling down my face and this time Arthur intervened.

"You can stop now. Kindly withdraw," he whispered to my bearings.

That made me smile. I had someone who cared for me. But I shook my head. I was going to win this fight.

I smiled and simply walked towards him, slowly, deliberately.

"Let me guess, you are acquainted with Olivia," My words took him by shock as I circled him and stood in front of him once again.inraised my hand and drove a punch straight into her face.

He had no time to react as he yelped and fell to the ground, until they came to carry mad treat

Panting and wheezing, I tried not to slink down to the ground as the final whistle was blown and the end of the battle announced.

There was an uproar in the arena, and I felt that the crowd erupted in a cheer, but I could only faintly hear it.

It had only turned into white noise as I placed my hands on my knees. My breathing was ragged, and I felt that all the air in the world would not be enough to fill my lungs.

I took in big breaths, my mouth wide open as I let the realization sink in. 1, the pack's weakling has won something.

It didn't matter that it was

not a real life battle, or that I had not killed my enemies... I had won a match right and fair
