As they began to carry her away, she stopped them just as they were passing by me. Her eyes flickered down to me, showing a hint of respect, and then, to my surprise, she turned back and gave me a smile.

“I knew you’d be a fierce competitor,” she said with a soft smile, extending her hand towards me.

“Congratulations. It was an honor to meet you, Judy Montague.”

I took her hand firmly in a handshake.

I stood there, my body shaking and my eyes wide as I watched her. Then she let go of my hand, and they took her away. I was left standing alone in the middle of the arena, completely exposed and vulnerable.

As soon as she was gone, I felt a rush of emotions.

It felt like someone flipped a switch. The whole stadium erupted with loud cheers that shook my mind and brought me back to reality.

“And we have a winner!!” the announcer’s voice boomed through the loudspeaker. Drones flew around me, capturing the moment.

Judy Montague stood frozen as the announcer’s voice filled the air. “Congratulations, Judy Montague! You won the Gamma Competition!!!”

The crowd erupted into cheers, but Judy felt stunned. Did she really win?

She could hardly believe it.

When people ran onto the arena grounds and rushed towards me, I saw Nan and Irene among them. Nan quickly wrapped her arms around me and squealed loudly.

“Judy! Did you hear them! You won!!” she exclaimed.

She was talking about the announcement of the winners.

I couldn’t believe it—I hadn’t moved an inch.

“I won…” I whispered, still in shock.

All around me was a massive crowd, everyone eager to take pictures and ask me questions. It was an overwhelming experience, that’s for sure.

My heart was racing. Paparazzi began to swarm the area, and suddenly, I was surrounded by a sea of cameras pointed right at me.

Before I could say a word, a loud roar echoed through the crowd, silencing almost everyone.

I turned to see what was happening next.

Gavin heard a loud roar and turned to see the crowd moving aside. They were making way for the Lycans. His eyes were wide with excitement as he looked around at everyone. It seemed like he was ready to take on the whole world.

Levi was the one who…

He approached me first.

“Congratulations, Miss Montague,” he said, bowing his head respectfully. “How about we go somewhere and talk… away from prying ears? I’m sure you are exhausted and would like to take a moment to recover from your own injuries.”

I looked down at my scratches and cuts, feeling my face grow warm with embarrassment. I was acutely aware that I was still very naked, and I had no idea where I had left my clothes.

I nodded, trying to shake off the awkwardness, when suddenly…

He could have just turned away and rushed to the training center, but instead, he wrapped a blanket around me. It shielded me from the curious eyes of everyone around. I felt grateful to him for that, and I thanked him with a small smile.

I swear I heard Gavin…

I heard a hiss, but I chose to ignore it. Daisy was still sitting in the stadium, watching him closely. I didn’t want to be the reason they had problems. Just thinking about it made me feel sick to my stomach. Still, I pushed those feelings down and kept my focus.

“We’ll come too,” Nan said, and Irene nodded in agreement.

Levi looked like he wanted to say no, but I stopped him before he could speak.

“That’d be great,” I said quickly.

I really didn’t want to be alone with Levi, especially not naked like this.

He looked annoyed, but he held back his feelings and forced a smile. This only made me feel more uneasy around him.

“Judy!” Matt yelled as he burst into the room.

He ran into my arms and hugged me tightly. “That was incredible! You were amazing! I can’t wait to go back to school and tell everyone that my tutor won the gamma competition!”

I smiled, feeling my heart warm at his excitement.

I felt a mix of eagerness and pride as I gently rubbed his head.

“I’m happy you were here to see this,” I said to him softly.

Irene then turned to Chester.

“Can you keep an eye on him for a little while? I’m taking Nan, and we are going to…”

Chester nodded and looked at Nan, who surprised him by giving a small smile. This made him relax a bit.

Then, Chester turned to me and placed a hand on my shoulder.

“Congrats,” he said with pride in his voice. “I’m so happy for you.”

I always knew you could do it. I never doubted you for a second.

I chuckled, and it felt good to laugh. For a moment, my heart was at ease. This was everything I wanted. I had actually won!

But then…

I glanced over at Gavin. He was watching me with dark eyes that hinted at unspoken thoughts. It was driving me crazy not knowing what he was thinking.

I didn’t ask him, though. Not with all these people around us.

“Come on,” he said, breaking the silence.

“Come on,” Levi urged, pushing us forward while the other Lycans held the crowd back, giving me some space.

I finally tore my gaze away from Gavin and nodded. I followed Levi, with my friends right behind me.
