“How is that even possible?!” Ashleigh shouted angrily. “I don’t mean to be a jerk… but how, how could you defeat Fiona on your first try when I can’t on my twentieth!”
“I can’t tell you,” Clara sighed. “But I will say one thing… there is more than one way to win the challenge. Just listen to the rules carefully.”
After her conversation with Clara, there was no way Ashleigh could just lay back in bed. The game she had failed at over and over was a simple test? One that all Summer wolves took and passed, even the ones that had no real military or combat training.
But, Ashleigh, a top Winter berserker, a devoted warrior and trusted to lead her own men in battle, failed. Repeatedly.
This was unacceptable.
Ashleigh got out of bed, showered, and got herself ready for the next round of the game.
