“Give me some good news.” I ran my fingers through my hair for the hundredth time, nerves knotting in my stomach. Hunter, with his gruff demeanour and dishevelled appearance, gave me a nonchalant shrug. His expression turned serious as he rewound the tape from the last round of our games. “I tried to warn you,” he remarked, pausing the video before meeting my scowl with a knowing look. “Are you telling me what I think you’re telling me?” My fists clenched at my sides, anger boiling inside me. “These are my fucking games. I make the rules and decide who wins!” things didn’t go according to plan, and I was bracing myself for the news that would ruin everything I had worked for.
His fingers flew across the keyboard as Hunter watched multiple screens replaying the footage, one displaying the games in the arena and another showing a recorded feed of the alphas watching from the observatory. All my guests had seen what had happened. I didn’t even know how I was going to spin that one.
