The Twin Alphas Warrior Luna (RYN)
Chapter 117

As soon as I said his name, Adam punched me in the face, sending me falling to the ground. The crowd 'oohed' on impact as if they all collectively winced on my behalf and I counted two tiring breaths before forcing myself up again.

I channeled my wolf one more time, getting into a defensive position, then something dawned on me.

Adam was no longer the friend I knew or the boy who Sadie thinks might have a crush on me. This boy with fire in his eyes was bent on whooping my a***. I could deduce that from the way his hands curled up into fists, poised in a way that showed he was ready to fight. If realizing I was the weapon was the true test, then this event should have been over....unless it was two tests in one! Because if the first test eliminated people, the second should have been harder but everyone passed within minutes. "This test was a trick, wasn't it?" I asked Adam in a low voice as we circled each other. "We are already in the third event?" Adam swung

for my face but I quickly dodged it. "Come on, answer me."

"I am not allowed to say anything." He gritted out loud, his face and neck the epitome of strain. "Just fight me!"

So I obeyed, and we jabbed and dodged each other's blows, while putting our defense skills to the work. After what seemed like an eternity, Adam had beaten me black and blue, and I was beyond exhaustion.

For the hundredth time, he slammed my back on the ground and I could have sworn I saw stars. At this point, the crowd stayed quiet and from my point of view, most were on their feet, watching in anticipation.

I rolled onto my side, trying to channel my wolf again but somehow she just wasn't as active as the first event. I think something happened to her, and I had no idea how to fix it.

My eyes landed on Theon and Miro in the distance watching me with no expression. I guess showing emotion could land them in trouble. Shifting my gaze to their father, I found him and his minions smirking down at me - the look of triumph on their faces. Gods! I have to win.

Just to spite these bastards, I have to win. I climbed to my knees and then staggered to my feet.

'If you can't replace any weakness,' Theon's words permeated my mind and I remembered my reply.

"I cheat. I cheat to survive."

Adam came for me and I stood my ground, begging my wolf to show up for me one last time. Just as soon as he got close, T threw my hand up and open, spraying sand into his eyes. Adam recoiled, groaning in pain. Then I took that opportunity to fight him with my last strength. I jabbed him in all the areas that could render him weak.

While trying to see, he reached out blindly for me and his hand landed on my chest. Instantly, I knew what he was about to do, and before he could grip my neck, I forced myself backwards. In the process, he was able to lay hands on my pendant and pull it from my neck.

Terror thundered through me at the loss of my parents' gift. I should have kept it in my pocket!

"Give it back!" I snarled, feeling my wolf surge like a beast awakening.

Adam had been able to rub his eyes clean and squint at me. "If you want it, come and get it." He sneered, putting it in his pocket, and that angered me enough to dash for him.

Adam had been waiting, preparing a knockout punch and as soon as he launched it, that slow motion thing occurred and I was able to stop his hand with my own wrapped in his fist.

Adam looked at me with surprise, but before he could react further, I head-butted him. He staggered back, and I used that opportunity to run up and climb his body before swinging my weight down and flipping his body to the ground. Somehow,

I had my thigh on his neck, and his right arm stretched tight towards me.

In those seconds, I realized I had just successfully performed the Death Grip and as people shouted, encouraging me to hold on, I screamed my lungs out in exhaustion.

Shortly after, Adam tapped me in surrender, and the entire stadium exploded with joy.

I let Adam go and rolled on my side on the ground, panting for breath. Once again, my eyes connected with Theon and I could see his face beam with pride.

I wanted to smile, I to smile, but I stopped myself. I have no idea if my analysis was correct.

Once I had enough strength to stand, I rose to my feet but my knees buckled and just when I was about to fall; I felt a hand hold me up. Raising my head, I discovered it to be the guy whom I helped before. Congratulations Ryn." He smiled down at me. "I wish I had thought of that."

All I could do was give him a thumbs up and later on, all ten of us lined up before the King and awaited the verdict. I watched as the King whispered in the ears of the announcer and my eyes cut to Theon, who had been watching me. "And the winner of the event," the announcer stated, pausing for dramatic effect. I closed my eyes, my heart thudding fast. "Is Ryn Ashmore."

I shouldn't be surprised, but I was.

Finally,

I let myself smile and then I met the Alpha King's gaze.

As the world celebrated around us, our eyes went to war and a promise was made.

Whether the Alpha King likes it or not, I will graduate and I will become an Elite warrior.
