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

The first thing I did when I woke up the following morning was to go and knock on Amies door. She looked half asleep

when she opened the door.

“Finn, is something wrong?” she asked, followed by a yawn that would have dislocated most people’s jaws.

“Nothing wrong. How are your ribs?” I asked. She stretched, turned from side to side and then shrugged.

“They don’t hurt at all. I guess Hugo was right. How about your side and your arm?”

“That’s not important. You are sure you are fine?”

“I’m sure, and it is important,” she insisted. She started unwrapping the bandage I had on my arm after my brother had

clawed me.

“See, not even a scar,” I told her. She let her fingers caress over the skin.

“Good. Then we are both fine,” she said. I wasn’t all the way happy, I felt like I should insist on checking on her injury, but

I had a feeling it would lead us into dangerous waters. I had to keep myself under control for a while longer. If that

coward James refused to meet Amie for much longer, I would personally drag him into the woods and make him listen to

her. If she wanted to do it in private, that was what would happen. He had got to dictate how he rejected her. She would

get to dictate how she rejected him. So, instead of telling her to pull her sleep top up and show me her side, I smiled.

“Breakfast?” I asked.

“Yes please. I’ll just change,” she told me. I waited while she got ready and we walked down together. The mood in the

cabin was high. The game was over, no need to dread what was up next. Now we just had a couple of days of relaxation

and tied up loose ends ahead of us. There was the fact we were still waiting for our points and rank. I decided not to worry about it for the day. Today we would spend the day resting. Everyone was free to do what they pleased. I knew

Ramses still hadn’t given up hope of meeting his mate and Sam was going to spend some time with Medow’s father. I was planning on not letting Amie out of my sight, so whatever she was planning on doing, I would do it as well. My aunt

might go and see my mother. I didn’t know if my brother would let that happen after my win yesterday. I hoped he would, they were sisters and had been close until the last eight years.

“What do you want to do today?” I asked Amie as we had eaten and people were heading off to do their thing.

“I was thinking I might walk around a bit. I haven’t really moved around the other packs and now seems to be as good of

a time as any. Want to join?” she asked.

“Sounds like fun, I would love to come along.” We told Sam and Jake what we were doing and headed out. It was

another beautiful day and Amie had been right in guessing it was a good time talking with other packs. Everyone seemed

to have relaxed and was open to talk to us. Without talking about it we avoided our old packs. We walked into the

campsite, and it was like a whole other world. The tents and campervans were standing close together and the mood was

high with BBQs going and music playing. We came to a colourful tent with what looked to be most of its pack sitting
