Chapter 44
Chapter 44 Ares POV I took a very long shower, and brushed my teeth three times before I could walk out and put on some clothes. Thereafter I walked downstairs and into Nora’s room, as I opened the door I saw something I shouldn’t have seen. So I closed the door fast and went out. “Why are you blushing?” Andrei asked as he and Gray cwalking. “No reason” I say and stop “Did the little prince grow up and found shair in splace?” Gray tries to tease but I punch him instead. “No, Anna changed clothes on Nora and I saw sof her skin and well, hmm” I try to explain but instead I remember what I saw and I blush even harder. “Oh, I thought, you already.. I mean, are you a virgin?” Andrei asks and I stare at him “Of course not, I have had partners but I saw a scar and another thing” I say and stare down at the ground. “Oh right the scar, she told Ben it happened in a rogue attack and someone slashed her back with a silver knife” Gray toldand I just stared at him. “Who?” I ask and I can feel my anger arise. 1/5 |||
“Well, she didn’t tell us,” Andrei answers. I growl low but when I was about to say something, Tristan cand pattedon my shoulder. “Con, we should go watch your brother and your father fight one another” He says and I look at him in surprise and so does Andrei and Gray: We four went towards the training grounds and just as Tristan had said, my brother and my father were having a fight. It looked fun and my lycan was itching for a fight as well.
Helios had the upper hand but he shouldn’t underestimate father, he is older and has more experience than what Helios has. But Helios is younger and is faster than father. Oh, father grabbed Helios ear and threw him over his shoulder, da mn that is gonna hurt later on. It feels more like father is trying to make up for the lost years when his lycan was in control. I wonder what will happen with all the lost rogues now when Nora is in a coma. Well, we will see what happens when she wakes up. I almost jump out of my skin when Anna touchesand I turn to face her. “I am sorry, my prince. I have finished with Nora now so you can go to her but I will warn you that Daniel is already there” Anna explains. I nod my head but turn my attention back to the fight when an idea hitsand I smile. *Father, sorry to disturb you in the middle of your fight but I have an idea. My warriors are bored and I am bored so how 2/5 ||| about a challenging tournament?” *Challenging tournament?* My father answers confused *Yes, we can challenge anyone we want and they can’t back out of the challenge, they must fight* *Good idea. When will we start? my father asks. *How about when you and Helios are finished?* I say *No, how about tomorrow, in the meantwe can arrange the arena and put up the names of the challenges?* father suggests and I agree *That will be good but right now I shall go to Nora and challenge… I begin to say *You can’t challenge Nora* father say and I sigh *I know that already but I can challenge Daniel, he is sitting with Nora right now* *Good then you and Daniel will be the first ones to.. No wait the doctor said you shouldn’t move that much and less fight* Father tries to protest but I just wave at him and turn around and walk away. But I must stop and turn to watch as the crowd made a noise and now Helios is holding our father down
in the dirt, getting the upper hand again and this tit looks like Helios will win. But of course, father shifts into his light brown lycan and I know it won’t be long until Helios is defeated and I run into the castle. I run to Nora’s room in a way to escape my father before he realizes that I am already a step before him. I open the door 川 and see Daniel sitting beside Nora, reading a book out loud to her. “Hey Daniel, I challenge you” I say and take the other chair on the opposite side of him. “Nope, your father already talked toabout the challenges. and I say no” Daniel says without looking up. “Yeah perhaps but one of the rules is that you can’t turn the challenge down so that means you must show up for it” I say triumphant and that made Daniel look up at I really don’t like him at all, it’s like he can see right throughwithout doing so much. He just looks at one and pierces one’s soul or in this case one’s lycan. “Fine I accept the challenge, it will be good when I kick your a*s anyway” Daniel says and smiles. He is so creepy when he smiles like that, ugh. “Good, can you leave now? I want to be alone with my mate right now” I say and Daniel sighs but gets up and walks out, taking the book with him. I wonder what kind of book it was. “Hey, Nora, you know I was in here earlier but Anna was changing your clothes and I think she was washing you also. but that just sounded creepy when I said it out loud just now, sorry. Helios and father were fighting and I suggested a challenge tournament of sorts. Everyone can challenge anyone and they can’t say no. And even though the doctor said that I should | rest I challenged Daniel and so we will be the first ones to go out and fight tomorrow. It will be so much fun. My lycan is restless and so am I. I miss you so much but you will cheeron right? Of course you will,
perhaps I will challenge Helios as well but I probably shouldn’t do that as you will be sad so I should sk ip that. I love you, Nora” I kiss her on the forehead when the door opens and Helios walks inside and stops besideand says. “I challenge you” and I smile.
