My Second Chance

Sapphire's P.O.V

Graysen and Ryder were circling each other, trying to anticipate the opponents first move.

Clover tried to reassure me, but I could feel panic radiating from her. Although Ryder was younger and had an advantage to stamina and speed, Graysen was a very experienced fighter. And when I mean very, I mean very. "He'll be fine Sapph, calm down. He can sense you, remember?" Bell murmered beside me. "How? Our bond's broken when I rejected him." I frowned. No, our bond's not broken yet, Gwen informed me. What? I frowned in confusion.

"You did reject him, but you didn't do it out of pure ditaste. The bond was still there, faint, but still there. But just now when you proclaimed your love for him, it strengthened. Didn't you see how tired he was earlier?" Bell smiled softly. "He immediately looked carefree and younger." Will appeared beside me, smiling.

I stared at his figure and saw what they had said was indeed true. Yeah, yeah, whatever, all I can think is the heat now, Drew grumbled.

When she said that, I became really aware if my body condition. It was weakening, from the lack of food and the Changing.

"Prepare to lose Ryder Black." Graysen snarled as he lunged forward. My body moved by it's own out of instinct. "Wait!" I stood in front of Ryder protectively. Graysen stopped and looked at me in confusion from his green sly eyes. "You could've got hit." Ryder growled at me. I ignored him and faced Graysen.

"The person you want is me. It's only fair if I'm the one fighting." I said, determination lining my words. Graysen seemed to think it over. "No. I forbid this." Ryder scowled. "I'm your equal Ryder. You can not order me around." I glared at him. His face fell immediately, knowing that there was nothing he could do.

"Sapphire, this isn't a fight you can win. The odds are all against you." A familiar voice said and I recognised Georgia, Ryder's mother.

"What odds?" I raised an eyebrow, although I knew what she meant.

"I know someone who's weak when I see one. And I've been keeping tabs on what you eat." Georgia said, double meaning in her words. My eyes met her in surprise. Surely no one knew about my eating disorder. "What do you eat?" Ryder frowned in confusion. I just sent him a small smile.

fairness." Graysen smirked and I nodded. "You're only saying that because she's more likely tol lose. This isn't about fairness, it's just for your advantage." Ryder growled, opposing the idea. "My my... I just can't get anything pass you, can I?" Graysen tsked and Ryder let out yet another animalistic growl. I placed a reassuring hand on his shoulder. "I'll be fine. I'm not that weak." I smiled. Yes you are, Drew grumbled. Great to see the sarcastic side of you out, I sighed and she smirked. We can do this, a demon and werewolf, he doesn't stand a chance, Gwen smirked. Half. Half demon and half werewolf, Drew reminded. You just loove beating us down, do you? I grumbled at her. Don't blame me, its in my nature, she shrugged and

gently, taking a deep breath and digging all the confidence and energy I had left. "Are you sure Sapphire? No backing out. And don't forget about the wolf bane that's still in your system." Graysen sneered. "What?" Ryder widened his eyes. "I'm sure." I held my head high before

took charge and leaped out of the way, dodging one of Graysen's attacks. Graysen growled and pounced on me. I nipped at his hind leg and he howled in pain. I smirked, swishing my fox like tail. He stood up, bearing the pain. He glared at me with venomous green eyes and I knew things were about to get messy. He had been publicly humiliated in front of the pack. And that was the only thing he couldn't stand. How lucky for me.

I pounced and bit down on his neck. Metallic taste filled my nouth and I internally gagged. He whimpered before tossing me off him, making

I screamed at him. Well, no one's noticing it, it's only rape if I get caught, Graysen smirked and I tried pushing him off. Everybody thought I was just trying to get away from him, not that they were literally watching a rape scene unravel in front of them. This is gross, he's not our mate, Gwen yelled as she tried prying us from under Graysen's body. Drew? I called shakingly. I..I can't help, I'm... I'm... its burning in here, Drew panted and I whimpered as the heat addressed me. I whimpered and once again struggled under him. Let go! I screamed at him and he just pressed down harder. My entrance burned as his thick length started to go down deeper.Ryder? I need help, please, I cried. Are you not feeling well?

Don't you see?!" Ryder's eyes were now black. Wolf in control. Cole and the people who were keeping him back released their hold in surprise. He ripped Graysen off me. I have never seen him this furious, like... ever. His

entire clearing went quiet and the painful howling stopped. I opened my eyes and braced myself for the gruesome sight I would've face. There layed Graysen's body, a limb torned apart and the head on the right side of his body. I vomited water out, disgusted at the lumps of flesh on the ground. Shaken up, I stared at Ryder. A sudden fear ran through me, was it because of the things I recently went through, I don't know. I
