The first pair of knees thudded to the ground.
7.

9.
Another drops.
I was filling my brain with every useless thought I could to distract myself.
10.
11.
Another.
I figured, I had to at least wait for 25 of the 36 to drop. That clears most of them. If they can make it that long, than they either have the same goal as me or they want to succeed.

13.
Multiple fall now.
14.
15.
I think that's 7.
16.
17.
Fuck, this hurts. 2 more drop.

19.
I can't imagine how they feel. Another one falls.
20.
21.
22.
Fortunately (maybe unfortuately), since I have Alpha blood, I am able to overcome the burn of silver a bit more than the average wolf.
23.
Four drop this time.
24.
25.
Definitely not wearing clothes for weeks after this.

27.
I think that's 16 now.

Fuck. I think I blacked out for a second. I'm still standing. I hear whimpering.
It's Leah. It has to be.
Why is she still standing?
Damnit, Leah.
I've lost count. Leah's still standing. What else can be-
"45", the man calls out.
45. I've been cut 45 times.
Blood is running down my legs. I can barely get an traction under my feet.
Two sets of knees fall.
"Only three of you left. Who wants it, ladies"
Oh, fuck off. No one wants this.
Wait-three?
Thud.
Am I still being cut?
Probably not good if I can't feel it.
I need to drop before I'm the last one standing.
Where's Leah? Is she still standing? Fuck, I stopped listening for her.
An anguished cry. Thud.
No.
No.
No. No. No. No.
"Congratulations. You were the last one standing. A doctor will see to your wounds. Your Alpha will be here shortly."
I must've lost consciousness again because the next thing I hear is a different, deeper, more powerful male voice.
An Alpha.
Fuck.
Xavier.
"Well, hello there. Let's take off that blind fold, shall we?"
My eyes take a second to adjust after being in darkness for so long.
They meet a pair of steely blue eyes.
Goosebumps immediately cover my skin.
Xavier.
