The weight of Caroline's words settled heavily on my shoulders, the realization of the impending danger sinking in. A death challenge, a battle for the alpha position within the Backwood Pack. The thought of Alex risking his life in a brutal fight sent waves of fear coursing through me.
Restless thoughts plagued my mind as I paced back and forth, the room filled with an air of uncertainty. Should I try to intervene? Should I confront Alex and plead with him to reconsider? After all, he proposed this death challenge to protect me.
Caroline, sensing my worry, placed a comforting hand on my shoulder and spoke with empathy in her voice. "Emma, you should know Alex. Once he has made up his mind, nothing can sway him. And unfortunately, a confrontation with Andrew is inevitable. It's a battle for supremacy, a test of strength and leadership. Only the winning alpha can guide the pack to prosperity."
