The Contest by Cooper (Jaxon & Evangeline)
Chapter 63 (Evangeline)
Jaxon and I are leaving today for the next competition. This time, it’s only a two-day event. They will be running agility sprints in pairs. Eighteen people will be eliminated in the next two days, nearly half of the remaining contestants. Two more females have dropped out finding their mates who have either taken over as the Alphas of their packs or will take over once they turn 18.
“Remember, with two out, you only need to be faster than eighteen other people, Eve,” Jaxon says to me as we arrive. I’m watching as most of the people walking into the now familiar packhouse look muscular and sleek. I, on the other hand, have started showing. If this competition had been one month later, I’m not sure I would have had a chance to win. As it is, my stomach is causing me some difficulty with agility. Hard to be agile when there’s a baby sitting between your hips and starting to push on your diaphragm.
As we walk inside, I see I’m not the only one that is going to be doing this pregnant. Flavia, Tobias’s mate, is also showing, and based on her size, she was pregnant at the last event.
“Seventeen,” Jaxon whispers in my ear, before k*issing the side of my head. He saw Flavia as well and he’s saying she won’t be able to make to the next round.
As we’re checking in, she comes over to me. “Well, you have a better chance of getting to the next round than I do,” she says, looking at my stomach. “Two months?”
“Yeah. What are you, three?” I ask. “Yes, I was pregnant at the last event. Tobias wasn’t happy that I competed, but when I won by default when I was paired with him, he felt better. I only had to fight the one day and I protected my stomach really well.”
Tobias and Jaxon come over, talking about us, their pregnant mates. Both of them come up behind us, wrapping their arms around our waists, and putting their hands on our bellies. “We’ll see you tonight. Good luck,” I say to Flavia.
“Thanks, I’m going to need it! Good luck to you, too,” she says.
We have a couple of hours after we arrive to get settled in. Then it’s time to head out to the first of three chances to get your best time in this competition. Everyone will run one sprint tonight and two tomorrow.
We walk outside with Lazio, Rowen, Jace, Carter, Maggie and Caleb. They are allowing five minutes per sprint to give time for each team time to get set up and get off the track for the next pair. It will take two hours to complete tonight’s event and then we’ll have dinner. I don’t expect to be as exhausted tonight, so Jaxon and I talked about going into the old claiming territory to begin practicing for the next competition, sensory.
When the leaderboards flash up, I see that Jaxon and I are paired together again. This time, it doesn’t matter. We’ re fifth up and I’m on the left and he’s on the right. I’m stronger on the right, but so is Jaxon and right now, he has the better chance of winning this competition. So, I’m glad that he’s on the right.
Twenty-five minutes into the competition, it’s our turn to sprint. We get into position and when the gun goes off, we take off. Both of us are extremely competitive, but we also want the other one to do well.
