Arthur pov Even though my heart was racing inside of my chest I knew that I had to stand for something in my life or else I would just rather die than allow all of my pride to leave me. Very soon the guards were standing in front of us and then looking at my friends they told him to rush with his food so that they could take him for the game but then he began to shake his head and I could see how their blood pressure visibly Rose from the look of their face and then they demanded to know what he had just said I stood up at this point and told them that he was not going to come along with them and if he would it would be over our dead bodies. all of them were looking at was as if we have lost our mind and then one guard signals to the other I don't know what communication went between the two of them but after he did that the other guard was washing away from where they had come from and to remain they said that they were ready to do anything to to subdue us and if we knew what

Arthur pov After the beating I got, I thought that it was literally going to be lights out for me from that moment that was the end of my life and nothing else was going to be heard of me but strangely enough I felt my eyes opening up like a butterfly that was stepping away from a flower spreading its wings and then the light of the lantern penetrating my eyes as I tried to carry it from one direction to another after doing so and failing to recognise my surroundings because my vision was still a little blurry I tried to raise myself up but then something pressed gently against my chest and pushed me down to a soft surface. "Don't move…" the voice was firm but it wasn't hard at the same time it was also very comforting and I found myself being able to listen to it easily as I rested back even though I could not yet recognise my surroundings I close my eyes again and then I felt something be placed on my forehead a conversation began to ensue as I was falling back into slumber again

Arthur's pov The woman told me that Hazel would soon be coming over to the room and then we could start our meeting I could see that despite my advice to keep the woman that I was unfortunately married to out of the entire plan she was still insisting on bringing her into it honestly I didn't trust her so not one bit I'm from the time that I had been married to her I knew that she was capable of a lot of things so before she was brought over which was taking much more longer than I expected I tried to convince the woman that looks like the one I love so much to keep her out of everything. "You really can't trust that woman…"I said and she gave me an unimpressed look without saying anything in particular I wasn't going to give up like that so I decided to tell her about how Hazel poisoned me and she continued to do so so that she could manipulate me to do anything that she wanted me to. she listened to the entire story without really making any reaction to show that she was actua

Arthur's pov "You know that you can't lose any of your fights right?" That woman, Mae as I call her now not still sure if she is the woman I love or someone else told me that this the night I would have to get involved in the games I have told myself that I would stay away from it as far as possible but unfortunately there was nothing I could do about it right now I would have to get involved in the very thing that I have been so against the moment I came here but I had to realise that my hands were tied it was either I decided to kill a few people I decided to kill everyone by not doing anything she told me that I was the only one that could do this job for her and so because of that I would just have to bend my mother house even if it was just a little bit I was looking up at you my conscience is beating me and my chest like it wrong. so somehow I looked because she had come to check up on me during the day she said that I will be staying here from now on and then every night I w

Arthur pov "How long are you planning to remain silent?" I slowly edge my head over until I was looking at a woman who was sitting facing my bed and giving me a low cynical look, you have been so impressed with me when I won the fight but the moment I began to collapse after his she was quick to pull away her admiration and immediately I could see just how irritated she was about how I was acting. "I just killed an innocent man…"I said to her again that was exactly what I said when I have been made out of the arena and she had quoted me on my back telling me that I had done a good deal but why didn't I feel by did I feel incredibly fit inside especially when I have looked at the Savage chilling underneath his mask I could see that he was smiling from ear-to-ear enjoying seeing me playing his sick game. literally fighting for my life was another source of humiliation and pain and added it to the fact that I had killed somebody because he had wanted me to knowing that I was going
