“All my life, I have never been touched by a man. I’ve remained clean and chaste” – Ava Goodchild

---

Next day, we were all brought out.

Led to a huge dining hall, we were made to seat according to our numbers. Since I was at the last, I was positioned at the extreme end.

Very much unnoticeable.

P-Piper!

I hurriedly searched for her among the girls, seated.

I sighed after seeing her, knowing she survived a night here.

Her head was directed down though, with her blonde hair covering her face as she chewed softly.

“Good morning, pawns.”

Knight Lydia strode inside the room saying.

Just beside her was a woman, who I guessed to be her assistant due to her presence yesterday.

“Normally, it’s always a systematic survival challenge, to get food. But to welcome you, we’ve specially prepared this buffet.”

She surprisingly said.

“So, eat to your heart’s content, cause today might be the last you enjoy,”

“Strong, smart, tactful, desirability. The one who breeds a baby for the beast, has to contain in her these virtuous qualities. If lucky, we’ll have a Queen in this batch,”

“Or wait another 200 years,”

“Which I doubt any of us will live to that, as humans,”

Everyone gasped at how frightening that sounded.

Knowing what happened in that amount of time was indeed fearsome.

Murmurs suddenly filled the room.

I sensed the instability of it all, and for a moment, I thought the girls would rebel.

“Silence!”

Lydia commanded.

The dining hall eventually became quiet and still. Everyone, looked up at Lydia and stopped eating.

Emily still chewed though.

I, seated directly beside her immediately tapped her.

She adhered, and I was thankful for that.

“I’m not finished yet,”

She added.

Her hair, a brownish one, neatly woven to her mid back. There were also flowery decorations on her head, like yesterday, which she wore like a crown.

Her dress was still a purple robe that had a cape at the back, dashed with gold engravings on top.

This meant her clothes were limited.

I was starting to doubt that she was the most powerful before the King.

I held the hems of my gown impatiently, wondering what news she actually had.

“There would be a party tonight,”

She said.

I blinked in confusion, wondering what exactly we were celebrating.

“A welcome party to woman hood.” she explained. “More like a tradition that has been held for centuries.”

“Each of you would be dressed beautifully, with hopes of enticing the beast,”

I felt my heart thud against my chest.

How was it going to go?

I knew it’s being really long since I had seen Captain Caspian.

“Would leave you for now to finish up. Next, we commence the game of survival.”

I watched as one of the guards, opened the door for her and she walked out.

Game of survival?

That really got me thinking.

---

We were all assembled at the venue of the game. I narrowed my eyes, surprised at where it was staged.

Instead of a perhaps, competitive environment, it was a plain and old looking room.

“Lovely pawns, welcome,”

We all watched as Lydia announced to us.

Directly in front of us were varieties of dresses, jewelries, makeup and ornaments.

I looked at Emily, as her hands fisted and her nose flared.

I hoped she didn’t say anything…

And... Piper…

“Today’s game would be quite simple. To prepare for the banquet tonight, there are beauty products set in front of you,”

“There are about 500 of you, in total.” she stated.

“But it is only limited to a 100. In this level, there are little or no rules. You’re entitled to slay anyone in your path to getting what you want,”

S-Slay?

I widened my eyes at her statement.

Was this why none of the last girls came back?

“When the bell dings, that’s a signal to go on,”

“Points would be added to the houses of each of you that survive. These points would determine who would show up in the Great Dance tonight.”

“Good luck in that,”

She breathed out, walking out the door with her head up high in dignity.

Goosebumps formed around my skin.

The girls all looked at each other fearfully.

Piper looked at me frightfully, but I gave her a re-assuring look.

I wanted her to know that I got her back.

I was nudged. To my surprise, it was Emily.

“Promise to have each other’s back?”

She said, extending a hand.

It was insane that this was even happening.

But I knew to survive, you had to team up.

“S-Sure,”

I muttered.

I looked around, and sized the room. There were few weapons at the entrance.

“We’ll have to get that first,”

I said to Emily and she nodded. I knew some people were going to go for the products in front first.

The bell dinged.

And I was right because they ran towards the products.

“Common!”

I yelled.

I immediately went back to the entrance, hastily grabbing the weapons with Emily.

I was able to get a dagger while Emily got a sickle.

“Let’s go!”

She said.

We immediately directed our movements towards the few beauty products left.

I grabbed some, searching for Piper.

I saw her picking some chest with her hair pin.

Good grief! She was making it alive.

But then, some girl approached her with an axe, snarling.

“P-Piper,”

I tried to call out, but she couldn’t even hear me.

Hastily, I took a leap of fate and targeted my dagger towards her.

Surprisingly, it went through her neck.

And she made gargling sounds, falling on the floor as blood spilled out of her throat.

“A-Ava, t-thank you,”

She let out, after noticing what just happened.

“You got yours?”

Emily ran to me, asking.

“Yeah,”

“Then let’s leave this sick place,”

She said.

I grabbed Piper’s hand that minute.

“Let’s go, Piper,”

“B-But the c-chest, Ava…”

She trailed out.

“You’ll pick it when we’re inside,”

I answered, dragging her along with us.

As we ran outside, speedily a hefty girl directly in front of Emily pushed her down.

“Emily!!”

I yelled.

With Piper still in my hands, I ran to help her.

But I was surprised when she knocked the hefty girl back down, running her sickle through her head.

Blood splattered all on her.

I hastily grabbed her hands, with Piper’s, as we ran out.

The first was Cicilia, the seductress. I couldn’t recognize the second cause I never remembered seeing her anywhere.But what I did know was that she definitely held a high rank.There was no doubt in that, from the way she was positioned, just beside Cicilia.

Next, she raised them up to hit me.

Next, the switches came on. The room became lit immediately and he walked towards me, in an all-black outfit.Sort of a coat at the back.That made me see and examine his features. His long dark hair had grown a bit, since the ship. Eyes were still as dark and mysterious as ever.It made my heart beat in various paces, as he made his way towards me.&

    “All my life, I have never been touched by a man. I’ve remained clean and chaste” – Ava Goodchild…I remembered last night.The beast’s torturous hands in between my legs. How he worked his hands gradually, into my vulva. Making me gasp in pleasure.“Little Ava…”His hands vigorously rubbing on my clit, taking about two hands in. After a while, they became sleek from the juices that flowed out. With a burning sensation, in between my legs.“C-Caspian…” I had gasped out, holding his both arms, while I laid down. A growl rumbled from his chest, before taking my lips in his, claiming them as his.He bit my lower lip, till they were swelling red, imprinting his marks and love bites on them. With a feeling of ecstasy, I moaned from his continuous swindles.Unsure of the tidal waves that currently built in me. He dug in deeper, lea

Why are you holding a sword that way?”He questioned, with an alarmed look on his face. Immediately, I looked down to the sword in my hands. It was bent down to the floor, like I was nervous and scared of this entire thing.And I was.Gosh I really was…What if I didn’t make it? What if died too, like those girls?But I had to be strong.

But when I saw who it was, I was shocked.Really.“Morning Cassandra, what are you doing here?”“Morning…” she whispered, pulling me up out of the bed.“I apologize for my impolite behavior, My Lady but His Royal Highness, summons you.”She said, whispering the last part in my ear.“W-What?”I mean, after the stunt I pulled yesterday I didn’t expect it to be so soon.“Yes, milady.”“He sent his trusted servant, Jaskier who delivered it to

    I was thankful when the beast fell into my hands, sleeping.His hair, dangerously covering a part of his forehead. Chiseled jaw and a smooth face, which had some beard around his chin. He reminded me of the way an Adonis was described, in one of the books I read back at home.Home.I missed home.I found myself drifting back to reality, and giggling a bit at the way he snored while he slept.For someone as powerful and good looking, he was a disaster in bed.What are you doing, Ava?You should be making your way out instead of admiring him…“I need to go,”I whispered, pushing him off my body with all my strength and rolling him over. The girls would soon wake up, and I wouldn’t want any mixed feelings about this.“Stay.”His hands suddenly tightened around my hands saying.“W-what, I have to—”

The other girl who eliminated the girl used her blood to turn the lantern off. She made her way to the front with a primal look on her face.Knowing I couldn’t be a part of it, I walked towards the girl’s body staring at her as she gasped for breath. My hands directed to her, rubbing her heard. “It’s fine,” I muttered. “You do not have to struggle or blame yourself. You can rest now.”“M-my family, I promised them that I was going to make it.” she let out.“A word will be sent out to them, you can rest now.” I said, my voice in a tone spelled with sympathy.“T-Thank, you...” she trailed before closing her eyes.“I’ll make your death worthwhile.” I said with a determined look.

The girl surprisingly didn’t go back for her partner, instead she increased her speed with all she had. “Help me, please…!”My Lycan heard those words, making my eyes flare up in yellow. “Yahh!!” What happened next was a blur, but I think I scared the panther off...I opened my eyes naked, on a deserted part of land with water droplets sprinkling on me from a plant. “Psst. I’m so not trusting or helping anyone again.”It seemed like there were people around from the food I smelled.

I woke up discovering that every single deck member had disappeared. In fact, there was no one in sight when I pushed the door coming aboard. Everything looked in place, except that the sea had landed on shore. Did they actually leave me? “Where is everyone?” I said those words out loud. Pinching myself to check if it was a dream, but when I scowled, I was so sure it wasn’t. “Hello?” my voice echoed in reply. I sighed with the possible fact that I might have been duped and deceived. Reaching to scavenge for my backpack, I found nothing. In fact, the money I hid secretly had disappeared. Dammit! Maybe it was what I deserved for being naïve. What did I expect? An easy part to the Kingdom of Shrekers? Was such a fool to think the strange captain from last night, had a thing for me. “Yah!” I jumped from the ship, with my Lycan strengt

Do you hear that crew, she says she’s a nobody!” The crew laughed immensely at his words.I scoffed, shutting my eyes and remembering even why I was doing this. The Captain’s hands went through his coal-black hair, with some loose strands just at his face sides demonically.“There is no place for a nobody on this ship, girl.” he murmured, in my ear.“It’s Frida.” I spat at him. “I intend to join your crew, Captain.”A look of disbelief displayed in his dark pupils, which stared at my almond ones, with a warning glare. I swallowed, with the wind bringing a little part of my red hair to fall on my face.“I don’t accept daddy’s girls in my crew, little one.”The Captain voiced out, walking away from me. Feeling humiliated, I released my Lycan.She ripped his men’s bulky hands off, with our doubled

I was in a lost part of the castle, where no one could hear me. “I did it to save myself, yet that wasn’t fair on their side.” “A-Ava?” Piper had muttered, stepping from my back. She had been trying to reach out to me, with her soft and feeble hands. Her eyes held a saddened look, with a pout. Reason had been that we were in separate rooms. “It’s all going to be fine, I promise.” I had whispered, but she still held on to me. “Most girls are bigger than me there, they’re going to bully me.” She numbly stated. I had sighed that day, even though I felt helpless. “They won’t. I’ll protect you if they do, I promise.” I said, kissing her hands. I opened my eyes, waking up from the strange dream. I’ll protect her if they tried to hurt her? I
