Chapter 87

"B-b-but, why does she have to die for me to live?"

"That, dear, is up to you."

"Wh-wh-what?" I stuttered, as I often did when nervous or upset.

"You have the right to step aside and let her keep her life, but do not do so unless you are one hundred percent, without a doubt certain, she has conceded and you are the clear victor."

"B-b-but I thought that was a sign of extreme weakness and that I couldn't afford to be weak, especially on my first challenge, as there would certainly be more following."

"That was Franny and..."

"I know who they are, they were at my table at the pack dinner. They seemed like really nice people,

but I felt like they were shooting daggers at me just now."

"I'm sorry, Kelsey. Franny and Morgan are Christine's parents. They are very distraught over her challenging you."
