HIS QUEEN
I clenched my fists tightly and met her eyes.
She smirked at me. "I, Gardenia, she wolf of the North challenge you to a duel. Winner becomes queen" I couldn't possibly win against her. She was stronger, faster and trained. I had never fought anybody, I had no experience whatsoever. But rejecting it would make me look weak.
She smirked at me. If I accepted, she had a high chance of winning and if I declined, I was admitting my weakness. I looked up and saw a familiar silhouette at a window in the castle.
