I fell hard, and I could feel my leg hurt. My pants ripped as I fell to the ground, harder than I usually did. Tabby rushed over to me.
“Are you okay?” she asked, her face full of concern.
I looked up at her, trying to catch my breath.
She nodded and looked at the wound on my leg.
“Just a scratch,” I said softly. “There’s a cave up ahead. There’s probably a flag in there.”
She nodded again, and together we started walking toward the cave.
It took us about 30 minutes to reach the entrance of the cave. The entrance was blocked by rocks, leaves, and bushes. We had to work together to clear a path so we could get through.
“You think they would really hide something in here?” one of my friends asked.
“Here?” she asked, looking around at her surroundings.
“Without a doubt,” I murmured.
I looked up at the sky and noticed that one of the many drones was following us. With the drone hovering above, I realized I needed to be careful.
Gavin was watching me closely. I glanced at the drone as we pushed aside the last of the bushes to create an opening. At least we had made enough space to squeeze through.
“I don’t like this,” Gavin said.
Tabby whispered, “I feel like we’re walking into a trap.”
“We don’t have a choice,” I replied. Without saying anything else, I stepped into the dark cave.

*Third Person POV*
In the cave, the air was cool and damp. Shadows danced around them as they moved deeper inside. Tabby followed closely behind, her eyes wide with worry. They both knew the risks, but they had to keep going.
In the viewing room, the Lycans and the judges watched as the competitors fought for their survival. Gavin focused on the screen, his eyes locked on Judy. She was battling fiercely against the other wolves, and it looked like she was on the brink of losing her life. It took all of Gavin’s strength to watch the intense struggle unfold.
He wanted to fly to the island and rescue her, but he knew he couldn’t. If he did, everyone would start to doubt his intentions.
His hands kept clenching and unclenching every time she found herself in trouble. It was hard to watch her in danger, and he felt helpless.
It was becoming dangerous. Now, she was entering a cave where the drones couldn’t follow her inside. He was losing sight of her, and it was driving him crazy.
At the same time, Alpha Levi was also focused on the screen. His eyes were glued to the action unfolding before him.
Judy noticed Gavin’s reaction as she glanced between him and the screen. A small smile crept onto his lips, but it didn’t reach his eyes. She could tell from his body language that he was not happy with what he was seeing on the screen. His displeasure was clear, even if he tried to hide it.
His phone buzzed, notifying him of a new email. He quickly picked it up and swiped the screen to open the message. It was from Ethan, who had successfully provided him with valuable information about the Landry corporation. This included details on the investments Gavin had made and the deals he was involved in.
Levi was intrigued by something involving the shareholders. He discovered that money was being sent to a secure and unknown account.
Levi lifted his eyes and focused on the back of Gavin’s head. He wondered, what was Gavin doing sending money to a secure account?
Levi was acting strangely secretive. He closed his emails and sent a text to one of his subordinates with a screenshot of a money transfer.
“Find out where this money is going and report back to me ASAP,” he instructed.
He seemed anxious, as if something important was at stake.
He put his phone back in his pocket without waiting for us to respond. Then, he opened a mindlink.
“How’s it going over there?” he asked through the link.
“So far, so good. I already saved her once,” came the familiar voice.
A voice echoed in his head. “She’s going into a cave. Should I follow her?”
“Just make sure she doesn’t die,” came the reply. “I need her for my future plans. If she dies, it will ruin everything I’ve worked for.”
Levi replied, “Will do. As long as I’m here, she’ll stay alive.”
With that, the mindlink ended. Levi leaned back in his seat, his eyes fixed on the screen, eager to see what would happen next.
Meanwhile,
Back at the Silver Crescent pack, Irene met with Stella for the second time in a week. Irene still hadn’t talked to Ethan about what she had found out. Now, she realized that Ethan wasn’t who she thought he was.
Stella felt sick as Ethan’s words rang in her mind. He was telling her to get rid of the baby and was throwing cash at her like it was nothing. It was as if he was tossing her aside, despite the fact that he had spent the last few weeks leading her on.
She couldn’t help but wonder how many other women Ethan had treated this way. The thought made her heart ache.
She felt sick to her stomach just thinking about it. She had stood up for him, but he let her down in the worst way. He wasn’t her destined mate, but her wolf still reacted strongly. It pulled back deep into her mind, hiding away from the pain.
She felt overwhelmed by the sadness that had come into her life. Ethan had broken her heart, and now she was seeking revenge. She wanted to understand what Ethan truly wanted because it was clear he had been with her for a reason. Maybe it was because…
Her father was Gavin Landry. He was a man who truly cared about his family and always tried to do his best for them.
