Chapter 72

Marienne's Pov

I watched with avid anticipation as the two lycans shifted into their lycan forms, their fur bristling with intensity.

I could feel the excitement and apprehension, of my mates though the bond.

I was surrounded by a roaring crowd, eager to witness the clash of these formidable warrior and more importantly the downfall of Delaney. I had always seen the tradition of the lycan as being brutal. They were expected to fight until the death claimed the victim of the sentence.

I haven't seen Delaney fight before but I knew she was a skilled fighter from her moves, but as the two opponents clashed, it seemed her rival had the upper hand. The sound of biting and growls filled the air, making my blood run cold. I instinctively reached out and grasped Marcel's hand, for support as we watched the brutal confrontation unfold.

Delaney opponent was throwing her around the area and the crowd roared with so much joy, as if they had come to watch a show and not someone life being taken.
