Chapter 10
Janet narrowed her eyes at Daran
“You want to challenge me?” Janet let out a light chuckle. “Why? Is it because I just slapped your little
girlfriend, and you want to avenge her now?”
“It’s not about that.”
Daran looked down at Janet from his towering height, eyes searching her face.
“I just want to see what you’ve been hiding from me,” he said with a light voice.
“No!”
Suddenly a loud voice interrupted their eye contact.
Casper had stood up from his seat, a stern look on his face.
“I’ll not allow it!” Casper said gloomily, staring at Daran. “This is ridiculous. You are an Alpha for Christ’s
sake! Your Alpha aura alone is enough to make people shit in their pants! This is not a fair game!

“Don’t worry. This is only a friendly exchange. We are not on the battlefield,” Daran said calmly. “I won’t
use my Alpha aura if that’s what worried you.”
“It’s not just that—”
“And to make it seem more reasonable-” Daran put his right hand into his pocket and said, “-I’ll only
use my left hand during the fight.”
An audible gasp came from the crowd.
People were all stunned.
Using only one hand?
That hardly seemed possible! Even for an Alpha like Daran!
Casper furrowed his brows tightly together. He still seemed unconvinced. But Janet spoke up at this
moment:
“Sure. I accept your challenge.”
“Janet!” Casper cried out anxiously.
“It’s OK. It’s an honor to challenge Alpha Daran,” Janet said with a smile while keeping her eyes on
Daran.
When she was still Daran’s Luna, she had heard many legends about Daran, like how he single–
maned 50 rogues and blood–bathed a rogue’s stronghold in minutes.
Janet had always known that Daran was an extraordinary warrior.
Yet sadly, she was never allowed into the training field when she was in Riverside Pack.
Now she finally had the chance.
The idea of conquering him exhilarated her.
“So does the winner have a prize?” Janet said to Daran with a provoking smile.
Flight
snort, “Do you have anything in mind?”
“If I win…”
Janet walked up to him and trailed her index finger across his jawline.
“…You’ll bow and kiss my hand while saying ‘Gamma Janet I shouldn’t challenge your majesty‘,” she
chuckled.
Daran held his breath involuntarily.
Her finger sent a chill down his spine.
Yet there was an immediate disapproving sound from Riverside Pack.
“Our Alpha bows to nobody!” Baron roared.
“Yeah! That’s too much!”
Daran raised a hand, silencing all his members.
“Deal,” he said hoarsely while staring at Janet. “And if you lose?” “Then you can ask me to do
anything,” Janet smiled.
With that established, both of them moved to the wrestling ring.
Round 2 was about to begin!
Janet squared her shoulders and glared at her opponent.
She knew that she was in for a tough fight.
Daran towered over her, his muscles bulging with strength.
But she welcomed the challenge.
With a flick of her wrist and a twirl of her body, Janet launched herself at Daran, fists swinging!
She aimed at his right side on purpose.
Because Daran had promised to use his right hand, he had to step sideways to dodge.
Then he feinted to the left, then quickly pivoted to the right, landing a powerful blow on Janet’s
shoulder!
Janet stumbled.
F**k that hurts!
“Careful,” Daran said with a hint of a smile.
But Janet had quickly regained their balance and retaliated with a flurry of jabs and hooks.
Their fight went on, each blow aimed with precision and power.
Yet something had changed at this point.
Something strange began to happen-
Their movements became fluid and graceful, a strange sort of dance that seemed almost… flirtatious.
Janet dodged a blow, feeling the heat of Daran’s breath on her cheek.
She could see the surprise in his eyes as she twisted away, flipping over his head and landing on the
other. side.
This short interaction rendered both of them breathless and a quickening heart rate.
People were watching closely by the ring. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
Eden gazed into the ring with a frown and then turned to Casper.
“Am I crazy?” he asked Casper perplexedly, “Or are they seriously flirting?”
Casper’s jaw tensed.
He gave Eden a deathly glare and snapped, “…Shut up.”
5 minutes
Passed.
And they were still in a tie.
Janet was beginning to feel exhausted, however. She wanted to end the fight soon with more powerful
blows.
But she forgot about defense when she was all about offense.
Suddenly Daran caught an opening and landed a hard punch on her shoulder, sending Janet blasted
off
her back!
“—-Janet!!”
Casper let out a loud roar and jumped onto the ring.
He ran to Janet’s side and gently held her into his arms, “Oh my god! Are you OK?”
Janet coughed and rubbed her shoulder.
It hurt like hell. But she could take it.
A hint of panic flickered across Daran’s eyes as he rushed forward as well.
“Are you alright?” he asked while offering a hand to Janet.
Casper slapped Daran’s hand away and barked, “Friendly exchange my ass! You f**king hurt her! I’m
going to rip your throat apart-”
Casper couldn’t handle this.
Hadn’t Daran hurt his little sister enough?!
“Don’t…” Janet coughed and patted Casper’s arm. “I’m fine, Casper. He didn’t hurt me.”
She got on her feet and moved around slightly, “See?”
“OK, OK, you’ve proved your point,” Casper quickly wrapped his arms around her waist. “Now stay still.
You need to be examined by Doctor Steve.”
Janet sighed, “…Fine.”
She then turned to Daran with a light smile, “You win, Alpha Daran. Now you can tell me what you want
me to do.”
Daran stared at Casper’s hand on Janet’s waist, “…I’ll tell me when it comes to mind.”
Janet was carried off the ring by Casper.
Daran followed after them.
He was greeted by Harper as soon as he got off.
“Alpha!” Harper grabbed his hand and cried excitedly, “Congratulations! I know you can win! What are
you going to ask of her? You should ask her to kneel down and apologize to me in front of everyone!”
Yet Daran didn’t answer.
He was still looking at Janet.
Janet was now surrounded by a group of members from the Blood Moon Pack.
Casper was rubbing her shoulders, while Eden wrapped her in his jacket.
Everyone here adored her like a princess.
Daran clenched his fists as an annoyed feeling rose in him.
Janet used to belong solely to him… Yet now, she was surrounded by a bunch of men. And he had no
excuse to come up to her.
“Alpha?”
Harper called him again, trying to get his attention back.
Yet Daran suddenly shook off her hands and walked to Janet.
Janet nodded at Casper with a smile.
Daran couldn’t believe his ears.
“Answer me!”
Daran ignored Casper while tightening his grip.
Jealousy had clouded his mind.
“Shower in your Alpha’s suite…” Daran hissed glaring at Janet, “Is this how you become Gamma?”
Chapter u
BANG!
Casper threw a hard punch at Daran, knocking him to the side,
“Watch your f**king mouth!” Casper hissed, “I don’t care if you are an Alpha or not! If you disrespect
Janet again, I will f**king kill you!”
Daran looked up to him darkly. His mouth was ripped but his gaze was sharp.
“Kill me?” Daran let out cold laugh, “If you think you can-”
“OK. That’s enough. Both of you.”
Janet came in between them. She first patted Casper’s tensed shoulder to ease him up before turning
over
to Daran.
A sarcastic smile appeared on her lips.
She paused.
Then meet with Daran’s dark eyes.
“-Well, it’s not you f**king business.” she chuckled.
She turned on her heels and left the scene with Casper, Eden and everyone else from BloodMoon
Pack. Daran remained frozen on his spot as the group of them walked away.
Janet was right.
It was not his f**king business anymore.
He rejected her. And she became somebody else’s now.
