Rivalry Pokemon Novels & Stories

The most prominent was a crystal trophy—"Blackwood Pack's Strategist of the Year." I had won that for him. Killian reached for my shoulder, probably about to try one of his "calming" tricks. "Sera, I know this is hard to accept, but for the future of the pack—" My hand shot out and grabbed the crystal trophy. CRACK. Sharp fragments dug deep into my palm, and blood welled up instantly. Killian froze. I held up my bleeding hand. The crimson drops blossomed against the crystal, stark and visceral, like morbid roses blooming on glass.

He staggered, spit red, but his answer wasn’t retreat. It was a hook. Sloppy, but real. It caught me across the cheek. I laughed, blood on my teeth. “There it is. Your first bite.” His grin was half-feral. “Then keep feeding me.” The night it happened, the pit was overflowing. Word had spread — Rival fights till death. Rival can’t be killed. Rival is the pit. The rails bent under the weight of bodies pressing close, cash flying, chants deafening.

“I was just curious.” I knew my brother, he would never sound convinced. “Rowan…” “I’m fine,” I insisted. “Are you getting into trouble?” “Not intentionally.” He sighed quietly. “Try not to create unnecessary rivalries.” I looked out across the grounds, thinking of Theo’s eyes on me. “Rivalry found me,” I said calmly. “Without my intention.” Henry went silent for a second. “Then be careful,” he finally said. “Not everyone sees competition as harmless.”

My jaw tightened. I had seen his face before, countless times over the years. On screens. In newspapers. On banners and sponsorship deals. Every time his name came up beside mine, it was always the same narrative, rivalry. Competition. Two rising heirs destined to clash. But that was never what he was to me. Riko wasn’t just a rival that stole some of my brand deals. He wasn’t just competition that I needed to face on the field. He was my enemy. And one day, I was going to kill him myself.

Perhaps then none of this would be happening. As the sun began its descent, casting an orange glow across the horizon, as the battle I most feared began. The two Alphas locked eyes, their rivalry palpable. Dane was still looking to get his revenge on Elliot for all that he had done to me. He hated Elliot for having taken me away from him, and trying to claim me as his. Dane lunged forward, his movements swift and graceful, harnessing the moon’s power to enhance his agility. He struck with precision, his claws slashing through the air.

We’d been drafted two years apart, built two different empires inside the same kingdom. And kingdoms don’t survive two kings. Victor stepped closer, his polished shoes clicking against tile. “The sponsors are nervous. The board is furious. The press is calling it a rivalry.” “It’s not,” Damon snapped. It was. Victor’s eyes gleamed. “Then prove it.” I let out a humorless laugh. “You don’t bench two captains because T*****r says we don’t like each other.” Victor didn’t blink. “No. I trade one.”

"I'm Cherry, and since your friend has already taken care of the paperwork, we just need to establish your ground rules. Real names, corporate titles, and personal backgrounds don't exist within these walls. You'll be registered under an alias. Tonight, you are Aura." I glanced at Skylar, whose initial embarrassment had already dissolved into reckless excitement. "The masks stay on at all times in the common areas," Cherry continued, tapping the desk. "They're only removed behind closed doors, at the total discretion of you and your paired partner. Your partner has been selected by our curation system based on your shared psychological profile, and he'll carry an alias as well. Enjoy your de

Sebastian's POV I sat in the back of my Aston Martin, scrolling through my tablet for the daily hand exercise game I did when I was stressed out. It was the most peaceful thing right now. The numbers and patterns kept my mind occupied. Kept me from thinking about things I didn't want to think about. I didn't involve myself in matters involving rivals. Dominic had been my rival since college. After what caused the accident of the Rossis, it separated the business deals between our families. Generational rivals. That's all we were supposed to be.

The sun hung low in the sky, casting an ominous glow over the small village as the annual catfight tradition began. Villagers gathered around the makeshift arena, their eyes gleaming with anticipation.
