Ava by L.G.Savage (HeartBreak)

Chapter 100

Ava stayed in the bleachers for all the matches for the beginners to complete. She was just being a coward. Between his matches, Zeke had paced up and down the whole arena, and every time he stopped at the beginners‘ section, his eyes burned through her

She’d kept her eyes down even though she was obviously frustrating him. If other people hadn’t heard the rumours about them by now, she waES sure his behaviour had made them aware. He was scaring the shit out of everyone.

But it was okay. She wasn’t going to be at the arena much longer, She’d won some matches already but would tap out on the next one to avoid winning a spot in the top ten. This day wouldn’t end like the last one.

Predictably, the coach called her name first

She ignored Zeke as she went to pick a weapon and chose a very small chain. It could still be deadly in the right hands, but she didn’t want anything that would intimidate her opponent. They’d all been wary of her already during the earlier matches. She hoped that in time, they would realise that she had just been lucky with Dexter, and they could do the same if they trained as hard as she had. Maybe she could have taught them that if she wasn’t planning on leaving the academy.

She swung her little chain around, leaned back in the corner and waited for her opponent. There were snickers from the other students at her choice of weapon and the usual whispers. Zeke remained silent. Maybe he had figured out what she was going to do. The chain wouldn’t be a challenge to anyone.

The coach called her opponent’s name.

She stopped swinging her chain and pushed away from the corner to watch the Omega approaching the weapons. She followed her every
