Chapter 44
Ares POV
I took a very long shower, and brushed my teeth three times before I could walk out and put on some
clothes. Thereafter I walked downstairs and into Nora’s room, as I opened the door I saw something I
shouldn’t have seen.
So I closed the door fast and went out.
“Why are you blushing?” Andrei asked as he and Gray came walking.
“No reason” I say and stop
“Did the little prince grow up and found some hair in some place?” Gray tries to tease but I punch him
instead.
“No, Anna changed clothes on Nora and I saw some of her skin and well, hmm” I try to explain but
instead I remember what I saw and I blush even harder.
“Oh, I thought, you already.. I mean, are you a virgin?” Andrei asks and I stare at him
“Of course not, I have had partners but I saw a scar and another thing” I say and stare down at the
ground.
“Oh right the scar, she told Ben it happened in a rogue attack and someone slashed her back with a
silver knife” Gray told me and I just stared at him.
“Who?” I ask and I can feel my anger arise.

“Well, she didn’t tell us,” Andrei answers.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtI growl low but when I was about to say something, Tristan came and patted me on my shoulder.
“Come on, we should go watch your brother and your father fight one another” He says and I look at
him in surprise and so does Andrei and Gray:
We four went towards the training grounds and just as Tristan had said, my brother and my father were
having a fight. It looked fun and my lycan was itching for a fight as well.
Helios had the upper hand but he shouldn’t underestimate father, he is older and has more experience
than what Helios has. But Helios is younger and is faster than father. Oh, father grabbed Helios ear and
threw him over his shoulder, da mn that is gonna hurt later on.
It feels more like father is trying to make up for the lost years when his lycan was in control. I wonder
what will happen with all the lost rogues now when Nora is in a coma. Well, we will see what happens
when she wakes up.
I almost jump out of my skin when Anna touches me and I turn to face her.
“I am sorry, my prince. I have finished with Nora now so you can go to her but I will warn you that
Daniel is already there” Anna explains.
I nod my head but turn my attention back to the fight when an idea hits me and I smile.
*Father, sorry to disturb you in the middle of your fight but I have an idea. My warriors are bored and I
am bored so how

about a challenging tournament?”
*Challenging tournament?* My father answers confused
*Yes, we can challenge anyone we want and they can’t back out of the challenge, they must fight*
*Good idea. When will we start? my father asks.
*How about when you and Helios are finished?* I say
*No, how about tomorrow, in the meantime we can arrange the arena and put up the names of the
challenges?* father suggests and I agree
*That will be good but right now I shall go to Nora and challenge… I begin to say
*You can’t challenge Nora* father say and I sigh
*I know that already but I can challenge Daniel, he is sitting with Nora right now*
*Good then you and Daniel will be the first ones to.. No wait the doctor said you shouldn’t move that
much and less fight* Father tries to protest but I just wave at him and turn around and walk away.
But I must stop and turn to watch as the crowd made a noise and now Helios is holding our father down
in the dirt, getting the upper hand again and this time it looks like Helios will win. But of course, father
shifts into his light brown lycan and I know it won’t be long until Helios is defeated and I run into the
castle.
I run to Nora’s room in a way to escape my father before he realizes that I am already a step before
him. I open the door

and see Daniel sitting beside Nora, reading a book out loud to her.
“Hey Daniel, I challenge you” I say and take the other chair on the opposite side of him.
“Nope, your father already talked to me about the challenges. and I say no” Daniel says without looking
up.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Yeah perhaps but one of the rules is that you can’t turn the challenge down so that means you must
show up for it” I say triumphant and that made Daniel look up at me
I really don’t like him at all, it’s like he can see right through me without doing so much. He just looks at
one and pierces one’s soul or in this case one’s lycan.
“Fine I accept the challenge, it will be good when I kick your a*s anyway” Daniel says and smiles.
He is so creepy when he smiles like that, ugh.
“Good, can you leave now? I want to be alone with my mate right now” I say and Daniel sighs but gets
up and walks out, taking the book with him.
I wonder what kind of book it was.
“Hey, Nora, you know I was in here earlier but Anna was changing your clothes and I think she was
washing you also. but that just sounded creepy when I said it out loud just now, sorry.
Helios and father were fighting and I suggested a challenge tournament of sorts. Everyone can
challenge anyone and they can’t say no. And even though the doctor said that I should
|
rest I challenged Daniel and so we will be the first ones to go out and fight tomorrow. It will be so much
fun.
My lycan is restless and so am I. I miss you so much but you will cheer me on right? Of course you will,
perhaps I will challenge Helios as well but I probably shouldn’t do that as you will be sad so I should sk
ip that. I love you, Nora”
I kiss her on the forehead when the door opens and Helios walks inside and stops beside me and says.
“I challenge you” and I smile.
