Chapter Three

Shit…no. Jace had challenged her brother?

“You don’t have to see this, if you don’t want,” Veyr said, a gentle hand on her arm as he nodded towards a side door. It was ajar to reveal a small but plush sitting room beyond. She looked up into his eyes to find understanding and concern there.

Anger flared again. Was this what they all thought of her? That she was too delicate to face one of the mainstays of Lycan life? Challenge fights happened all the time, at every level, and while not all were to the death, they were all equally bloody and brutal.

“No,” she said, her voice firm. “I’m okay. I want to see this. I need to see this.”

“Very well.” Approval replaced the concern and he nodded. For some strange reason, Vanessa got the feeling she’d just gained an ally.

The crowd cleared the center of the floor and the Minister stepped forward to officiate, but he didn’t get a chance. With a snarl, Jacob launched himself across the gap to attack Jace while his back was turned.

The crowd and Veyr cried out a warning, but Jace didn’t need it. Even while Jacob was in the air, shifting mid-leap, Jace had already moved. With a roar he twisted, his arm lashing out. For Vanessa, time slowed, and she watched in slow motion as the claws extended from the end of Jace’s fingertips. A part-shift, proving beyond a shadow of doubt he was all alpha.

Jacob landed, badly. He whipped around, spotting Jace and managing a snarl as he snapped at his opponent’s leg. His teeth didn’t connect. Instead, Jace, not even bothering to shift, kicked him hard in the face.

Jacob staggered to the side, then his eyes rolled back in his head, and he collapsed in a heap of fur and blood.

Stunned silence filled the room.

“Was that it?” Alex Kingwood exclaimed, shock on his face. “If I’d known it would be that easy, I’d have challenged the asshole months ago.”

“Easy or not,” Veyr interrupted, striding forwards. “Challenge was given, and accepted… And by my reckoning, Jace Trenton won the fight. Which means—”

Alex folded his arms. “Ah, but challenge fights are to the death.”

He looked down at the still furry form of Jacob McCauley. The fact he hadn’t changed back to his human form was telling. His injury was obviously a mortal one or near enough. “Although I have to admit, it doesn’t seem like he is long for this world.”

Veyr cocked an eyebrow in question as he looked at Jace. For a fighter to not finish his opponent was the worst form of indignity. A mortal insult. It said the defeated Wolf wasn’t worth bothering with.

Jace shrugged. “Let nature take its course.”

“Very well,” Veyr turned back to the rest of the court. “Then I present to you, the new Alpha of the
