Game of Destiny – A Thrilling Tale of Power, Love & Fate

‘Red, how are you holding up?’ Finlay mindlinked as he looked back at me.

‘Fine. I think I can hold on. But I don’t think I can pull him up,’ I said.

‘Ramses, Amie, stay put and hold on. Alpha, let’s make our way as close as we can. If they act as anchors, we can pull him

up,’ Sam said. I focused on breathing and not thinking about the pain in my fingers. Finlay came back and was next to me.

‘Ready?’ Finlay asked.

‘Ready,’ Sam agreed. Finlay used one arm to reach across to where the rope was holding up Jake, swinging below us.

When Finlay and Sam pulled on the rope, I felt relief as the weight was no longer on me. It was hard for them to pull him

up using only one arm each, but it didn’t take long before Jack reached up and took a grip on the holds.

‘Got it?’ Finlay asked.

‘Yes, Alpha. Thank you, and sorry about the trouble,’ Jake replied.

‘Don’t think about it. Let’s finish this,’ Finlay said and started moving across again. My arms objected as I started moving.

It was hard going from a standstill to swing forward. When we all had come past the outcrop, we took a moment to

breathe again.

‘It won’t get easier, let’s get it over with,’ Finlay told us and we moved again. The climb became steeper, the holds

smaller. As the top came into view, we could see how small it was. It would be a stretch for us all to fit. The holds were

barely enough for me to be able to put my weight on. All parts of my body objected as we pushed forward. ‘I’m up,’

Finlay declared, and I felt him pull on the rope to help me with the last part. When I got up on the small flat surface, we

took a hold of the rope connecting me to Jake and helped him up as well. We manoeuvred so Finlay could help Jake to

pull Ramses up and finally Sam joined us. We had to hook arms around each other for all to stay in place and not fall off

the edge.

“Blue Mountain pack, you have finished the game with four minutes to spare. One moment and we will get you down.

Congratulations on finishing the first game.” There were howls coming from our pack members who had been watching

us. Hidden in a crevice there was a long rope attached to an anchor. We used it to scale down the rock face.

‘Well done, everyone. Let’s join the others and watch the rest of the game and then we go back to the cabin and talk it

through,’ Finlay mindlinked us. We all walked over to where the rest of our team sat on the benches.

“You were brilliant. Well done!” Matilda said as she handed out bottles of water and sandwiches to us.

“Thank you,” I said as I was grateful to sit down. My arms were burning and my fingers and toes were chaffed. They would heal before the end of the day, but for now, they were painful.

‘Are you okay?’ Finlay asked in a mindlink.

‘I’m fine. A little bruised, but nothing that won’t get better before the day is over. Especially when I get Matilda’s food.

How about you? It was very impressive to see you and Sam pull Jake up like that,’ I told him. He gave me a smirk.
