Vedant's POV Every muscle in my body tenses as I face off against my opponent. I am the future Alpha, I have to win. My reputation is riding on it. He feints left, but I realize what he’s doing before he can complete the maneuver. I move forwards quickly, keeping face. His face falls as he realizes what I’m about to do, but he’s too late to stop me. I land the final blow and grin. Victory is mine. I hadn’t doubted it for a second, I am the future Alpha after all, but the combat made me feel alive. I walk head out of the sparring ring and see Simon giving me a thumbs up. As I reach him I clap him on the back and laugh. “Now, I feel alive.” He laughs back before pulling me forward. Come on, Alice’s last match just ended and she’s in the finals. If she wins this next one, she’ll win it
