Chapter 106

Zenovia

The next few days passed into a blur as I trained and kept pushing myself as if my life depended on it. I did it all- strength training, stamina increasing exercises, and workouts to strengthen my core like clockwork.

It didn’t matter if Elijah was with me or if Callahan passed by without even looking at me. I did what I could. I repeated their workouts and also added some of my own by seeing videos on the internet. One such day, I lay on the ground, panting and wheezing after feeling like my lungs would burst apart due to lack of air.

Thunder was a solid support and she helped me push myself. With her, I was never truly alone.

“Oh my, girl cut yourself some slack”

I heard Cynthia as she walked out on the ground towards me.

“Don’t bother” I quipped and got up from the ground, tying my shoelaces so as to give myself something to do.

“Oh, alright then. Just thought you wanted to come along to the pack to see the trials.”

I raised an eyebrow at that.

“What trials?”

Cynthia twirled a strand of her hair and answered, “Oh, did nobody tell you? Well, every few months the newly awakened wolves are assessed on their strengths and how far they have progressed in trials aka mini spars or battles where all newly awakened wolves compete with each other. The one who stays standing at the end gets to request a reward from the Lycan King himself. Great, isn’t it?”

I dusted my hands and got up from the ground.

“That is….great” I said as a plan began to form in my mind.

“When are the trials held?”

Cynthia rubbed the back of her neck, “As I said every few months when there are enough candidates to hold a trial. Given the rogue King and how the new wolves are behaving, I suggested to the King that we should hold the trials sooner. He approved of the idea.”

I nodded,

“That is a great idea. The newly awakened wolves would feel involved and it is a great way to make packs interact with each other in a friendly way instead of always lunging at each other’s throats.”

Cynthia’s expression brightened.
