I knew, because it was the same hunger, the same amusement, the same electric excitement that surged through her the moment she said that word.
“ytime.”
The instant it left her lips, a shiver raced through me, and for a brief second, I almost regretted bringing up the idea, not because I doubted my ability to defeat them.
Ss was nearly a hundred times stronger than all of these menbined, yet I hadnded a hit on him.
And furthermore, ever since Dravena’s hibernation and the rogue incident, I had grown stronger, and defeating these men shouldn’t have been difficult.
So I wasn’t really scared of the eight men that were now surrounding me, forming a circle in the cleared center of the room, the makeshift arena that had been made.
Some of them watched with barely contained excitement, as if victory was already theirs. Some stood with hands tucked in their pockets, their stances rxed, as if the thought of fighting a woman was beneath them. And the remaining others…. their gazes were cautious, wary, measuring me as though testing if I was a real threat.
And as I stood there, in the middle, what I feared most was…
“Dravena, please, don’t take control. Don’t start ripping heads off
It was her. Drevana.
I begged her through our mindlink, already anticipating what she was thinking, especially now as she stepped down from her throne, standing in the middle of the throne room, excitement sparkling in her eyes.
She didn’t answer. She only smiled wider, fangs glinting, surveying the men before us like dolls she intended to toy with to ease her boredom.
I swallowed hard, forcing myself not to show it. I held my head high and swept my gaze across the room, scanning at the eager crowd but most of all, I searched for them.
The Alphas. Standing not far, watched me with that calm expression.
Lucien’s usual cold mask, Ss’s indifferent stare, ude’s amused grin.
But as soon as our eyes met, their expressions shifted.
Ss offered a warm smile. Lucien gave a small, cold nod. And ude… his grin widened, as if he already knew I would win.
Which was surprising, considering everyone here-the guests, the elders, the nobles were already whispering among themselves, betting on which elder’s son would strike first and im the position of beta. The elders whose sons stood in the arena were beaming with pride, while those without their sons around looked visibly displeased.
Yet, despite their differences, it was clear they all wanted the same thing.
That the wolfless woman must not win.
“Rx, human-” Dravena drawledzily, a smirk curling on her lips as she mirrored my stance. For a fleeting moment,

something in the air shifted, heavy, suffocating, as if she were truly standing right behind me, our backs pressed together. “1 promise I won’t kill anyone.”
At her words, a relief breath slipped from me.
But right then, one of the men, the one who had been watching with eager excitement finally moved.
In the blink of an eye, he lunged forward. And yet, despite his speed, he seemed slow to me, his movements unfolding in a slow motion before my eyes.
His lips curled into a mocking grin, and as the crowd leaned forward in anticipation, he raised his hand and swung it toward my face.
“A woman like you dreaming of bing beta? Ha. You wish.”
His fist shot forward, inches from connecting with my face but like I said, he was too slow. My first instinct was to dodge, to let him strike empty air and counter on the next move…
But before I could even react,
Something changed.
The air itself shifted, as though a switch had been flipped.
At that critical moment, I didn’t dodge. No….
My vision blurred.
And she took control.
I watched in disbelief as Dravena chuckled, her voice sliding smoothly through my mind. My arm moved-no, her arm moved, lifting with casual ease before driving forward in a brutal punch straight into the man’s face.
For a heartbeat, the entire room froze.
Then the sickening crack of impact sliced through the air. Gasps erupted as the man’s teeth were sent flying, scattering across the floor while Dravena hummed in delight.
“Hehe… though that doesn’t mean I won’t break a few bones or two. Oh, this is fun. This is really fun.”
Sheughed, wild and thrilled, as the man who had been smirking moments ago copsed to the ground with a heavy thud.
And almost immediately, control snapped back to me.
I stood there, fist still raised in the air, frozen in ce while everyone stared at me, their jaws nearly touching the ground.
Only the Alphas didn’t look shocked.
No… they looked pleased.
My gaze flicked down to the man sprawled on the floor, and I couldn’t help the slight twitch in my eye.
Dravena…
Even though she hadn’t killed him, the man now looked half-dead already.
“D-did you just see that? She punched him so fast…”
Someone from the crowd whispered, voice trembling, as another echoed back,
“You saw that? I didn’t even see anything.”

At the man’s words, murmurs spread like wildfire through the crowd, surprise and unease rippling through them. I simply stood there, my hand still raised, but now something was different.
The remaining five men before me were no longer rxed. The smug smiles, their casual airs-gone. All of them stared at me warily, alert, as though finally realizing I was truly a threat.
However…
“That was just luck. Don’t get too cocky, bitch!”
Almost immediately, one of them scowled and lunged forward without hesitation, as if determined to prove the earlier strike had only been luck. He rushed at me, his hand raised into tight fist, this time putting more force behind it as he aimed straight for my stomach.
He was trying to strike my gut.
Just as I expected Dravena to seize control again and retaliate, she didn’t.
And any second now, the blow wouldnd.
But then, almost like instinct, like my body had already memorized the response, something shifted.
The crowd held its breath, waiting for the hit.
The next second, I moved.
I didn’t dodge. No.
I reached out and caught his wrist mid-strike.
The impact sent a ripple of wind bursting from the contact, my fingers locking firmly around his hand. Gasps erupted around us as I slowly lifted my gaze to meet his.
He was staring at me too, eyes wide in disbelief.
But before he could even react, my body moved on its own.
I jumped.
It was instinct.
Swinging my leg over his shoulder, I twisted sharply, dragging him down with me. The fabric of my dress hitched up slightly with the motion, revealing a brief sh of skin as I flipped him clean over.
Thud!
He mmed onto the ground with a loud, jarring impact. My legs remained hooked over him while my hand pinned his arm down, holding him in ce.
He wentple
tely still.
Knocked unconscious.
That was when I realized what I had just done.
How rough I had been… even without Dravena taking control.

This was only a match. I only wanted to prove myself, not crush hem outright.
Dravena’s earlier move had caught me off guard.

I blinked, snapping out of my daze just as an elder whispered in disbelief, seemingly wanting to step forward, his eyes fixed on the man beneath me.
“Impossible… how can you lose to a wolfless woman?”
At his words, I heard ude chuckle, his voice azy drawl as he hummed,
“Damn, lucky him. I wish she could wrap her legs around me like that, brothers.”
He joked, and from the corner of my eye, I saw Ss nod in agreement, his smile widening, while Lucien didn’t outwardly react but his eyes told me enough.
He was proud.
But just then, Dravena’s amused chuckle echoed through my mind.
“Isn’t this fun-” she purred, clearly in a good mood. “A human and her wolf fighting side by side. Let’s give every one of them a fucking show!”
She practically screamed in my mind, and that was when I realized what she was nning.
She was going to shift control between us while we fought.
“You are crazy,” I muttered under my breath but she simply chuckled.
She didn’t even deny it.
And just as the words left my lips, the air changed.
Two out of the six men surged forward at the same time, all of them now taking this far more seriously. Their eyes narrowed into res, as though they truly meant to end me. As they moved, one raised his fist while the other lifted his leg, both aiming straight at me, making sure I had no way to escape.
But then…
It happened again.
I lost control over my body.
I watched, as the corners of my lips slowly curved into a smirk, my eyes glinting in a near-manic way as she-not me, Dravena ran her tongue over our lips and let out a low chuckle just as the punch and kick were about tond-
However…
“Oh goddess, look! She’s holding them!”
Someone nearly screamed from the crowd as both men’s eyes widened at the same time, staring at Dravena in shock. She had caught one man’s fist mid-air and grabbed the other’s leg before it could even strike her.
And before anyone could react…

She did something utterly insane.
She stood upright, holding one man by his arm and the other by his leg, and to everyone’s utter disbelief, she began to spin them around, twirling them like rag dolls. Their terrified scream echoed through the arena, while a wild, delighted smile spread across her face, her dress and hair whipping around as st spun.
No one could move. No one could even utter a single word. The crowd was paralyzed in shock.
Yet despite that… the Alphas didn’t look stunned in the slightest. No. Rather, they looked almost in awe. Dravena’s hair fluttered in the wind, her dress flowing elegantly, and they watched as if she were holding bouquets of flowers in her hands instead of two grown men.
“W-what are you doing?!” One of the elders was the first to snap out of his stupor, pointing angrily. “Let my son go!”
“Yes! Let my son go!”
Another elder roared.
Dravena simply chuckled and shrugged.
“Okay.”
And that was exactly what she did. She released them, sending them flying toward the nearest wall. Both of them mmed against it, the impact cracking the surface. The elders who had spoken both fell to their knees, pale and terrified, staring at
his sons.
However, before anyone could even process what had happened the four remaining men lunged forward, eyes zing with fury. Some had even lengthened their ws as they charged at me simultaneously.
Yet, Dravena didn’t even flinch in the slightest, under her breath I heard Dravena purr,
“Your turn, human. Make me proud.”
Control shifted back to me at thest possible second, just as the men were almost upon me. I knew exactly why she had done it: because at the point of danger, I fought instinctively, without hesitation.
I drew in a deep breath, my senses sharpening. Time seemed to low. I could hear whispers from the crowd:
“Oh man, she’s going to die!”
“Yes, there’s no way she can dodge that!”
Abraham nced nervously at the Alphas, asking if he should intervene. ude chuckled at his worry. Ss didn’t say a word, and Lucien’s expression remained unreadable, though his eyes spoke volumes.
“No need,” Ss finally drawled. “She’s already won.”
Instincts took over.
I kicked one, punched another, wrapped my legs around a third neck and toppled him to the ground, then mmed the back of my head into the fourth’s face. One by one, the men fell groaning and iling, until thest one beneath me went still, unconscious.
I breathed heavily, trying to regain myposure, legs still lightly wrapped around the fallen man’s neck, my heart racing as the crowd remained frozen, unable to process what had just cucurred.
Before I could even catch my breath…
“Again! Again! Let’s fight the old men this time!” Dravena called referring to the elders whose faces had gone ghostly pale.

Before I could respond, a familiar voice murmured, “Little wolf if you’re that desperate to wrap your legs around someone’s neck, let me volunteer myself.”
Hands wrapped around my waist, lifting me effortlessly from the man beneath me. I gasped.
ude.
I was turned to face him, Ss and Lucien by his sides. Ss reached out, stroking my hair, making me inhale sharply.
“Good girl,” he praised.
I stared at them, my heart racing, every pair of eyes in the room on me. Lucien nodded, his approval q
uiet but firm.
“You did well. You won. You proved yourself.”
My eyes flickered to Lucien in
disbelief, then back at the men on the ground.
He was right. I had proven myself.
I had really proven myself.
