Chapter 8: Life and Death Game
"Stop." Lamassi and Ilunar stopped the fight and declared him the winner. They went to carry her and treat her.
"Why have you stopped the fight," Emily asked
"He is about to kill you I told you the game is between life and death," Lamassi replied her
"I love your confidence continue training towards the next one perhaps you will be the next winner." lunar said
"You have to stop giving her advice., Lamassi said
"No. I want to be a warrior." Emily said but it was still not yet revealed to Lamassi that it was Astrid who was reborn. Because of this she always stayed alone beside the river where she learned how to fight. Lamassi always looks for her among the members of the pack.
"Where have you been? Have been looking for you." Lamassi
"But why are you looking for me i went to train myself towards the next game. Emily responded. Then Lamassi romantically comes near her.
"I understand you but I'm worried about your missing., Lamassi asked
"I'm sorry., Emily replied
"You know what I'll tell my friend to train you well okay., Lamassi said
"Okay. I love" Emily said
"Love you too. come and eat the food I prepare for you." Lamassi replied. Emily ate the food and slept off.
After some years of training, Emily participated in the festival game in the pack again where she fought and won the game. Her fighting skills amazed the pack members who witnessed the game festival with her beauty which attracted the Lycan the pack prince attention who fell in love with her. Lycan went to meet them on her way home to express his feelings.
"Hi, how are you doing?" Lycan approaches Emily.
"I'm fine and you" Emily responded
"I'm cool, I'm so amazed with your fighting skills., Lycan said
"Thank you," Emily replied.
"I fell in love with you. Can you be my girlfriend?" Lycan said
"I'm not interested," Emily replied and left his sight as she was going. Lycan's friend Kaida passed by her side and came to Lycan.
"What are you doing with her," Kaida said
"Nothing and what are you thinking" Lycan replied to him
"Nothing much but do you think she is fit to be among the warriors., Kaida said
"Yes, of course, I love her fighting skills., Lycan responded
"She can't join us, she is not yet fitted. Emily is not strong enough to fight." kaida said
"No. She has the fighting skills" Lycan replied and left his side
"But! But!! Wait for me!!!." Kaida said and ran after him. Lycan always presents all kinds of romantic gifts for Emily to express how much he loves her.
"Why all this gift" Emily questioned him
"It's just the symbol of the love I have for you., Lycan replied
"But I told you I don't love you., Emily responded
"You are fitted to be my mate., Lycan said
"But I'm not interested," Emily said. She wanted to leave Lycan but he held her hand and drew her back suddenly Kaida who was Lycans friend came around.
"Oh sorry, this is where you are have been looking for you., Kaida said
"Yes as you can see here I am," Lycan replied as they were talking Emily left them alone. Kaida felt somehow as he saw both of them
"But you said there is nothing between both of you," Kaida said.
"Emmmm! Yes she is my friend" Lycan replied to him
"Huh. Ok, can we leave now" Kaida said and they both left. Ryker, who Alpha of the moon shadow pack always hosts the game of death between does that he brought from the battle from different packs. There is one of them who was under Ryker's captive and refused to honor the authority that was brought before him. His name is Valtor.
"I had that you have not been respecting my words., Ryker said
"I'm not your maid for I know where I belong," Valtor replied
"So far you are still under my authority. You are meant to bow down for me or else I will destroy you and your family." Ryker said
"That will be the day death will choose between me and you," Valtor replied
"How dare you talk to our alpha like that." Kage intervened by drawing his sword out towards the Valtor.
"What is your name?" Ryker the Alpha asked
"Revenge is my name," Valtor responded. Valtor refused to tell Ryker his name and this made Ryker get angry at him and he asked him again.
"What kind of name is that? Tell me your name, now" Ryker asked him in his echo voice.
"I'm Valtor," Valtor responded.
"Show him the way to the prison." Ryker the Alpha said. The captive, whose name is Valtor, was taken into the prison. The Alpha was worried because of Valtor who was in prison. He wanted him to be one of his men but Valtor refused. He made things tough for him. He invited Kage and Kato to talk to them.
"I invited you to monitor one of the captives because you all know they are vigorous," Ryker the Alpha said.
"Yes, we know and we have been doing that before you invited us Alpha." Kato and Kage replied the Alpha
"Keep watching him he is so smart as we know" Ryker the Alpha said
"But I've been seeing Lila, your mate, with him., Kato said
"Have you forgotten that he is Lila's brother?" Ryker the Alpha responded
"Oh. I see Lila has been visiting the prison for some while now." Kato said
"You have to tell those prison guards to watch over them. And you guys have to be vigilant." Ryker the Alpha replied to him.
"Ok. Alpha we heard you." Kage and Kato said and they left there that night to do as they were ordered by the Alpha. But it wasn't revealed to them that Lila had planned with Valtor and one of the strong men among the captives how they could escape that same night. She went there and gave them the gate key.
"Valtor, these are all the gate keys of this pack. I want you to escape now before the night passes." Lila whispered to Valtor but suddenly she heard that the pack warriors had arrived into the prison and she had killed the prison guard and locked up the prison gate.
"Open the gate now." The warriors said. But despite all that they are doing no one opens the gate. But suddenly the gate was broken. The warriors run inside the prison immediately after they break the gate.
