Challenge Corner Novels & Stories

"Sir, this is the seventh challenge. Please proceed inside." There was no need to guess. It was House of Greed. Success or failure would be decided here and now. If he failed, who knew how long this would drag on? Of course, he hadn't forgotten Donna's warning about the three-day time limit. Unless there was another chance to challenge tomorrow, he couldn't afford to take any risks. The first trial shouldn't be too difficult for him, but that was just his assumption. Right now, he had to focus on what was in front of him.

The sound that penetrated the thick stone walls was not thunder, but a deep, resonant vibration: the sound of the Horns, which for thousands of years had marked the beginning of the Challenge. Nathan and Abigail’s farewell was brief, emotional. For a moment, Nathan held Abigail’s face and pressed his forehead to hers. Then he opened the door, and the two of them vanished into the corridor, swallowed by the call of the Challenge. Regnar immediately stepped to the chamber door and, with his immense strength, shoved a heavy metal cabinet in front of it. Damian stood by the wall, waiting with his daggers in hand. I positioned myself beside Sadira’s bed with the half-loaded pistol we had taken ea

“I obviously have chips.” “There’s a USB hidden behind my work badge. It contains one million dollars in cryptocurrency.” A smile curled at the corner of Lucien’s mouth. He shoved his chips into the center of the table with a crash. “I call. Double the stakes.” The cards were revealed. I lost. The room exploded with laughter. Someone tossed a phone in front of me. A loan app was open on the screen. “Go ahead. Borrow money. If you can scrape together three million, maybe you’ll earn the right to keep playing with me.”

, the hacker's finger glided through the keyboard and clicked on the enter icon, zooming in on the platform and the oddity about it.

" Christian scoffed with a chuckle, " is he playing with me?", he scoffed, " I think whoever it is knows who they are dealing with ", " Clearly ", Christian supported with a smirk on his face and his eyes glued to the screen. ' is this a challenge?', he asked in his mind, ' I love Challenge, but it'll be your grave if you touch a string of hair on her', with venom, he said in his mind.

Much to my dismay, I hadn't realized they had been practicing for days. The mechanical sound of the rolling beams reaches my ears and I shake the memories away. I watch Lyric attempt to maneuver through the various placed spiked logs that twist and turn and swing in an attempt to knock off the challenger. This is a challenge of skill, speed, and strength. I move closer until I’m almost standing underneath her. She makes a move forward dodging one log then twists to avoid another. I’m smiling because it looks like she’s going to make it through. She will be the fourth female since it was built to complete it.

So, I cleared my voice before I took the microphone in my hand. “Ladies in gentlemen we are here today for the fighting challenges, some are here to challenge for another or settle old debts, or whatnot, there might even be death, which ever happens they will be honored, now here are the rules, you fight for ten minutes, after the ten minutes the bell will go off and then you shift, after the shift is done then you go at it until the other either submits or dies, we would like for you to submit rather then die, but hey do you, no one interferes unless it is your mate out there getting seriously hurt, if you interfere for no reason you will be put in the dungeon for one week getting straps to

They turned and saw what seemed like an hourglass, ancient and faintly glowing with a golden hue, just like the stone plaque set that seemed alive with its energy. The hourglass did a one-hundred-and-eighty-degree turn and settled on a large floating stone that stood far ahead. The group did not know how long the hourglass was counting. But they knew that they were racing against time. Their first challenge had begun. The Cave of the Gods, Riddle of Passage. “Are you ready for this?” The general asked, his voice laced with both anxiety and readiness, the hilt of his sword in hand.

Rick scowled. Of course, he knew the truth, but he had no idea what he should say to ease the atmosphere. In fact, each level had a time limit, and the challengers would be eliminated if they were stuck on one level for too long. However, as long as they were not killed by the beast, they would not die. The challengers were kicked out one after another. Some chose to give up while others were eliminated from taking part in the next challenge.

It is his son after all. Leon is called into the arena and I see him shirtless. Alpha Mario arrives and the terms are explained. The winner is the only one standing and breathing. No shifting into wolf form No use of any weapons No use of any objects Breaking the terms means that the person loses. They both nod their heads and shake hands. Once the bell rings I feel my heart beating really fast. Leon looks at me and winks one eye. I blow him a kiss and the fight starts. Mario launches himself at Leon that dodges his every move.

"Locked in my room." "Locked?... Just don't worry. I'll be there before you know it." "Yes, just hurry up. I'm so scared." The room door badge open. I jump, frightened by the sound. I snap my head behind me at the door where Collins stand. The sight of him makes me shiver in fear. My hands shake but I try to keep hold of my fone. I watch his eyes move away from me to my hand which held my phone . He looks away from it back at me with furrowed brows then he matches to me angrily and snaps it out of my hold. I try to stand and get it back from him, but before I know what's happening, the unexpected take place. He slapped me. Hard and loud enough to echoe in the room.
