All Her Secrets

There was a mischievous smile on Catherine’s face when she looked meaningfully at Branden.

“You have to think it through. Becoming my trainee halfway through is not something easy. You may lose your life during my training.”

Her words sent a chill down the other trainees’ spines. They knew their instructor was not joking. They might accidentally get themselves killed.

Facing Catherine’s question, Branden’s expression remained unchanged.

He replied to Catherine calmly, “Sir, I want to join your camp. I can bear any consequences, even death. I’ve signed the disclaimer. Please, give me a chance.”

He did it formally with a good attitude. Catherine was interested in it. Since Branden offered to be tortured, why not? She would not be merciful to him.

“0339, back in the line.”

“Yes, sir!” Branden shouted aloud and stood in the line. Catherine asked the other trainees to have regular training. As for the newcomer, she had something special for him.

The first round was a physical challenge. When Francis joined her camp halfway, she only threw Francis out of the plane and asked him to swim to the island.

Branden was later than the others for a week and had offended her, so Catherine would not make things easy for him.

The trainees had witnessed her fighting against six people but never saw anyone fighting against eighteen people.

Cather asked eighteen trainees to attack Branden simultaneously. Her request was simple. The last one standing would be the winner.

Branden could pass the test if he could be the last one standing. Meanwhile, Catherine demanded the other eighteen trainees. She eyed them sternly, her eyes harsh and domineering.
