Chapter 0298 I sat frozen as I watched Judy fly in the air .


    She had no parachute , nothing to catch her … if she fell , it could possibly be the end for her .


    But at thest minute , she shifted into her wolf form .


    I had never seen her wolf before it stirred something inside of me that I couldnt seem to sluke .


    My wolf wanted to be released , which was odd for him .


    He never fought me for control before .


    At least he has t in a really long time .


    I couldnt remember thest time he had done this .


    Judy was much smaller than the others , but she wasnt ipetent .


    She fought with all her might and speed , and she ended up on top at the end .


    She managed to defend herself and get a few really good blows in herself .


    She had a good technique , the element of surprise .


    She could see them , but they couldnt see her until she wanted them to see her .


    But still , the thought that something could have happened to her , my chest was aching by the end of it .


    Who is that girl that went flying through the air ? One of the Lycans , Mica , asked from his seat .


    There were 4 Lycan chairmen in total , me being the strongest of them .


    There were others of Lycan blood around the world , but only the chairmen attended these events .


    The Lycans were pretty much the judges of these events along with a few appointed judges to help with final decision making .


    I believe her name is Judy Montague , Jeremy , the other Lycan , said , his eyes never leaving Judys wolf .


    Shes quite talented .


    Her professors praise her and even Levi said he was impressed with her skill set .


    Mica nodded .


    Well have to keep her in mind , Mica said thoughtfully .


    What do you think , Gavin ? Wed be stupid to not pass her to the next round , I said without a second thought .


    Really ? Mica said .


    Do you think shed survive it ? Of course , she would .


    If I were to bet money on anyone surviving , it would be Judy , Jeremy said with augh .


    Suddenly , my blood went cold .


    I turned to face them ; they were both smiling as they watched the ongoing fight .


    The timer was still ticking down and any minute now it would go off , indicating the fight was over .


    Neither of them noticed my cold stare .


    What do you mean survive ? I asked .


    Death is against the rules .


    Mica nced at me briefly before fixing his eyes back on the fight .


    Only for the first week , he told me .


    What ? I asked again , this time louder and with more force in my tone , making them both look at me with wary expressions .


    Even fellow Lycan chairmen knew when to not push my buttons because it wouldnt end well for them ..


    The second and third week death isnt penalized , Jeremy exined , narrowing his eyes at me .


    Youd know if you attended thestpetition we had a decade ago .


    Or the one before that two decades ago , Mica said , shaking his head .


    He was a newly appointed Alpha at that point , Jeremyughed .


    True , Mica replied , turning back to the fight .


    What are the rules for the next rounds ? I asked through my teeth ; my impatience was evident .


    Mica sighed and nced back up at me.


    They can choose to die , or they can surrender , Mica exined .


    They dont have to lose their lives … but if they dont submit and surrender , their opponent can take their life without being penalized .


    It doesnt have to be a fight to the death , Jeremy chimed in .


    But if they are stupid and stubborn , which clearly a few are , then it will be .


    My blood went cold … The buzzer went off , drawing my attention to the arena .


    Everyone started to shift back into their human forms ; they were all naked and piled into the locker rooms .


    I saw the small wolf that stood in the middle of the arena , she was staring up at the sky for a moment , like she was thanking the stars , or maybe talking to the Moon Goddess .


    She was waiting for something ; she looked back at the crowd of shifters that were returning to the locker rooms in their naked forms , and she held back .


    Her eyes found mine and held them .


    She stared at me for a long while , and then she turned and started to sprint in the opposite direction of everyone else .


    My heart raced … I had a strong urge to follow her , and I didnt think I was going to be able to resist it .
