JUNE"Gather round ladies," Jasmine picked up one of her usual lines, seeming most cheerful these days. Lily and I were already in front so there wasn't much need to step closer, only the other contestants who were lingering at the back.Soon the space was filled with different faces and perfumes. "Today is a day where you had still be competing for your spot in this competition. A total of 28 ladies are advancing and by the end of the day only a few of you had remain. So good luck," she said earnestly with a smile. There was a murmuring sound amongst us, as the ladies pointed to the swords and metals that had been unnerving me since morning. "You were all told the skill set required for this competition right?" Sage spoke. It might sound strange but I miss his voice and face. He stopped in the front, where Jasmine excused him."Do you know what might be the reason for his white eyes?" Lily asked, voice lowered.I only shrugged my shoulders and tried to focus on what he was about to

LILYThe moment I realised this game took more work than is required was when I almost lost June to the Bridge."Move, June, move," I had barked out, but unfortunately that got June confused as she almost slipped, my breath caught in my throat as I forgot how to breath."June are you okay?" Panic twisted in my stomach, heat prickling up my neck."I'm fine," she groaned trying to find her feet again. "I'm sorry I wasn't paying attention," she added."No June, you are not to be blamed. I should have studied the patterns a bit more.""We don't have much time Lily. What's next." June’s words barely left her lips when another team plunged off the bridge, screams splashing into the roar of the waterfall. "What's that?" She asked, panic in her voice. "No... nothing," I jabbed, trying to get my head together."Now June, two steps forwards, then duck." I said, turning my head slightly at the time. I didn't even know which was terrible at this point losing due to time or falling off the bridg

BRONTË I slip out of my room at 11:58.The pack house is quiet, just the usual night sounds of old wood settling and distant patrol footsteps outside.I move down the corridor as quietly as I can, taking the back stairs that servants use, avoiding the main hallways where pack members might still be awake.When I reach the library, the door is closed but there's light coming from underneath.I push it open.Sebastian is standing by the window, his back to me, still wearing the clothes from patrol though he's cleaned most of the dirt off."You came," he says without turning around."You knew I would.""I hoped." He turns to face me. "I wasn't sure."I close the door behind me and lock it. "We shouldn't be doing this.""I know.""If Alexander finds out—""He won't.""You don't know that. He's already suspicious. He came to my room right after you left asking if someone had been there.""What did you tell him?""That I was alone.""And he believed you?""I don't know. Maybe." I move furt

BRONTË The last thing I remember is Alexander walking me upstairs and kissing my forehead at my door.And then it's morning.Irina is already up, already dressed, already pulling my wardrobe open with the kind of energy that should be illegal before eight. She holds up two dresses, comparing them, completely unbothered by the fact that I'm sitting up in bed still wearing last night's clothes."You slept in your dress," she says without turning around."I noticed.""The zipper left a mark on your back." She hangs one dress back and lays the other across the chair. "Your mother is downstairs making enough food to feed both packs. She's already cried once and it's not even eight o'clock."I reach back to find the zipper. "Can you—"She's already there, undoing it with practiced fingers. "You're really leaving today.""That was always the plan.""I know." She helps me step out of the dress, hands me the one she picked. "I just didn't think it would feel like this.""Like what?"She looks

BRONTË I barely slept.Every time I close my eyes I see Alexander's hand on the bathroom door handle, see Sebastian pressed against the wall inside, see how close we came to everything falling apart.By the time morning comes I'm exhausted and my head pounds.I drag myself out of bed and get dressed, dreading going downstairs but knowing I have to.The dining room is already full when I arrive. Pack members eating breakfast, talking quietly, the usual morning routine.Alexander sits at the head of the table with his beta beside him.When he sees me, his expression doesn't change."There you are," he says, his voice neutral. "I was beginning to think you'd sleep all day.""Sorry, I didn't sleep well.""Again." He gestures to the empty chair beside him. "Sit."I sit and one of the pack members immediately brings me coffee and a plate."Thank you," I say quietly.Alexander continues his conversation with his beta about patrol schedules, but I can feel him watching me from the corner of
