LOGINTwo today... Neriah and Monte - 1; Father, Regina, Jemisha - 0
Neriah POVAmbrose is still angry about Bruno, but I am not saying anything. However, Silas completely humiliating Jemisha a moment ago did lift my spirit. I suffered way more injustice than an insulting comment in my life. Jemisha at least walked away without making a scene. I am not going to ask her how she is feeling. I know what she is feeling. It’s the same feeling I felt after all the times she put me through hell. I can’t muster one fuck to give her.Does that make me harsh? Probably. I still do not care, though. I would only feel bad if it was someone who never harmed me growing up. Jemisha was my biggest source of pain growing up; followed by my father and Regina.“Damn, Alpha Silas. That was a bit mean, don’t you think?” Bryce asked.“You saw what I saw. Am I wrong?”“Then why did you pick her?” Josie asked.“She begged me to pick her. I relented. It was a terrible choice.”Ambrose finally spoke up. “You will have to work with her tomorrow, now that you have made it into the
Jemisha POVThat bitch Neriah is unharmed again. I swear she is luckier than a leprechaun holding a four-leaf clover. I pulled Bruno aside when I saw him. I carefully insinuated that Neriah was a slut and would spread her legs for any man who paid her even a fraction of attention.I knew about his reputation because I read the tabloids. Tabloids Neriah never had access to, which meant she was in the dark about Bruno’s behavior. I saw Bruno again after the round ended and told him Neriah had gone to the bathroom alone. He gave me that sick grin of his and nodded before walking in that direction to wait for his prey.Not only did Neriah come out unscathed by scandal; she also was not ruined by Bruno. To make matters even more frustrating, Prince Ambrose escorted her to the van, and he is sitting here with us, which means I cannot start turning public opinion on Neriah with Josie.“Prince Ambrose, shouldn’t you be in the other van?” I asked sweetly.“No,” he said abruptly. I could see his
Neriah POVAfter the round and show concluded, Jace and Tyrus both left without the Luna they wanted. They wanted the same woman, too. Poor Christine. She was embarrassed on live TV. When we left the studio, I heard her crying in the bathroom.“Christine?” I called out.She came out of the stall. “Neriah, I’m fine. Really.”It was clear I didn’t believe her. I pulled her in for a hug. “I’m sorry that happened to you.”As soon as I said that, she burst into tears again. “Is there something wrong with me?” she asked.“Oh, Goddess, no. I heard a saying once. ‘You may not be every man’s cup of tea, but that doesn’t mean every man is your shot of whiskey’,” I recited.Christine laughed bitterly. “I guess you are right. I liked Jace, though. He didn’t like me. I’m feeling kind of vulnerable right now.”Natalie walked into the bathroom at that moment. She looked calm, but saw Christine’s puffy eyes.“Girl, do not cry over a man that wouldn’t cry over you. Tyrus and Jace are not worth your tea
Ambrose POVNeriah has been ogling me for most of the day. I keep catching her staring, and I have to admit, it makes me happy. We have come a long way from where we started. I think as soon as this competition is over, we are going to have one hell of a night completing our bond.We are up next to fight, and I am curious to see how strong she is. I know she is strong mentally and emotionally, after everything I have witnessed her go through with her useless family; I have no doubt. Physically, though, I haven’t seen her fight. Silas tried to force a mark, and I had to throw him off of her, so I am nervous about this round, not for me, but for her safety.‘We protect our mate!’ Kral warned.‘Without question,’ I assured my wolf.When we get back from commercial break, Neriah and I shake Jace and Christine’s hands. I let them know that whatever happens, we are all winning. Neriah and I don’t need cheap tricks. I know she wants to go to the finals and ruin Jemisha and Silas. I don’t know
Neriah POV“Now that our teams are chosen, we need to put those matches together!” Bruno said loudly. “Bryce and Josie are part of the first fight, since they have immunity. We will draw teams and see who is fighting against you!”Bruno rummaged in his hand in anticipation for the cameras. When he pulled out the name, he said loudly, “Alpha Victor and Heidi! You will be facing off with Alpha Bryce and Josie!”He rummaged around again and pulled a name from the box. “Alpha Silas and Jemisha, you are the first team in the second match! Let’s see who you are facing!”When he pulled the second card from the box, he said, “Alpha Tyrus and Natalie! You are facing off with Alpha Silas and Jemisha! Which means, Prince Ambrose, Neriah, Alpha Jace, and Christine, you will be facing off in the third match!”We all took our seats and waited for the first match to start. Ambrose bent to my ear, and his whisper sent shivers down my spine. This feeling is getting harder and harder to contain.“Pay at
Neriah POVWhen the vans arrived at the studio, an unsettling feeling came over me again. I know that there are only three pairs moving into the finals. Bryce and Josie are automatically in, and that means there are two more spots.During the whole ride, the women were quiet. They only made one comment about the way I looked the night before at dinner, but nothing else. I haven’t heard Jemisha speak one word since the spa. That has to be a record of how long she can go without mocking, insulting, or making fun of me.When the guys unload from the van, they are laughing and carrying on. The women are quiet. Something seems off about it, and I am not sure why.I leaned over to Heidi. “Why are the women so quiet today?” I asked.Heidi looked at me, and there was a little bit of resentment in her eyes. “You seriously don’t know?”“Know what?”She sighed. “All the women are in their feelings because of how you stole the attention of every alpha last night at dinner, Neriah. They were glued
