All Chapters of Betrayed Luna, Claimed by the lycan King : Chapter 71 - Chapter 77

Nyra Virellion“Ha… ha…”I stood in the middle of the arena during my second round, breathing hard and starting to question how much I had left in the tank. Thousands of eyes bored into me from the stands. They were waiting for something exciting, something raw that would get their blood pumping and feed their hunger for a real fight.As brutal as it sounded, that was the whole point of the Trial of Heirs put on a show, prove you could lead them.I took a deep, shaky breath and locked eyes with the guy across from me. He was from one of the stronger packs. We were both still holding back our weapons, just circling each other in the early moments of the match.“Are you scared, little girl?” he taunted.My stance shifted from defensive to straight-up annoyed. I relaxed my shoulders a bit and answered, “Not trying to crush your dreams or anything, but I’ve trained harder than anyone else here. I plan to win this time respectfully.”

Nyra Virellion Oryndor was backing away from the fight. The Trials of Heirs were meant to be fierce and competitive, the kind of place where the winner actually earned their victory. But everything that had happened lately just left a bitter taste in my mouth. Even now… Oryndor was retreating like he didn’t think I was worth fighting. What the hell was making him pull back?

Had he really just refused? “I can’t fight you, Nyra.” He unbuckled the belt holding his daggers and let it drop. I stared at the fallen belt, shaking my head, my eyes fixed on his boots. “Why…? Don’t I deserve a fair fight

Nyra VirellionTonight was all about looking breathtaking. I couldn’t stop smiling at my reflection in the mirror. The long teal gown hugged me in all the right places, and I kept turning this way and that, admiring myself like I was someone else entirely. I let out a little giggle and spun around one more time, just to see the fabric flow.“I’m pretty sure Alpha Vaerith is going to fall in love with me all over again,” I whispered to myself in a silly voice, then laughed like a kid. The A-line cut gave me this elegant posture that made me look taller, and the color brought out my skin perfectly. I didn’t even feel like I needed makeup.The black heels that came with the dress were simple but classy. They made me feel regal, like I was floating a little taller than usual. This whole look was more than I could’ve asked for. I could already imagine heads turning tonight.Beta Raelor had messaged me earlier with details about the guests. Invitations
