I wish to minimise my interactions with my friend to the greatest extent possible. He is not interested in me, and I must progress; I should not complicate matters for myself. I will still attend Games Day because I have exerted considerable effort and refuse to withdraw from participation. As the second most formidable female warrior in this pack, my performance will enhance Lunar Howl Moon’s overall score.
I will engage in combat, flee, and pursue. I will harness the pain I experience and transform it into anger to enhance my performance. Initially, I attend to Alyssa by changing her nappy and dressing her. I retrieve the tool bag and spend 20 minutes transforming her cot into a toddler bed. I wish to avoid a recurrence of last night. Alyssa and I proceed to breakfast, where I prepare scrambled eggs, toast, and slice some bananas.
“How is my princess this morning?”“Brandon enquires upon entering the kitchen.”
“She is proficient.” “Totally oblivious to the distress she caused us all last night,” I concede, prompting Brandon to chuckle and bestow a kiss on Alyssa’s forehead.
“Are you not attending the buffet breakfast?”He scowls.
“I decided not to complicate matters unnecessarily,” I state while manoeuvring my eggs on the plate.
“You are still attending the games, correct?”“He insists.”
“Certainly.” I have exerted excessive effort to abstain from competition. “I cherish this pack and will not disappoint them,” I assert resolutely.
“Excellent!” I am pleased. You exert excessive effort to squander it on someone who fails to value both parties involved. Who was your companion? Was he a combatant?Brandon enquires.
I am uncertain. I am aware that his name is Cohen, and he appears large and robust, regardless of his identity,” I reply.
“Surname?”He exerts pressure, and I respond with a shrug.
“Did you acquire any information beyond his first name?”“He enquires, his eyebrows knitted together.” I can sense my cheeks reddening.
“How unpleasant, Celine!”He emits a groan.
The mate bond is profound.I proceed with my head lowered.
“I am going to have breakfast, and if I encounter a Cohen, I will express my thoughts to him.” “I trust I have identified the correct Cohen,” he remarks with a smirk.
“Ha ha, amusing!”I smirk.
At 9 am, I don high-waisted black leggings, a black sports bra, and an oversized black hoodie. I am not wearing any colour, as I wish to avoid standing out entirely. I style my hair in two French braids to maintain it away from my face, and I prepare a diaper bag for Alyssa.
All activities are conducted outdoors today, with the childcare staff overseeing a sufficiently sized fenced area and a dozen individuals supervising the children, allowing us to retrieve our kids during our events if desired. I prepare a sling bag containing water and protein bars for myself. At 9:30, I put on my trainers, and Alyssa and I depart. I drop her off, pull up the hood of my hoodie, and proceed to the registration queue. The forthcoming events are:
Human Form of Women’s Combat
Men’s Combat Human Form
Women’s 300 Meter Wolf Form Run
Women’s 100 Meter Dash
Men’s 100-Meter Dash
Men’s Wolf Form 300-Meter Sprint
Men’s Log Toss
Women’s Log Toss
Beta and Gamma are engaged in combat.
I enrol in all activities for women, with the exception of the log throw. Due to my elevated status as a warrior within our pack, I will forgo the initial rounds of combat. During the intervals between other events, we can participate in the runs, where our scores are recorded and displayed on the leaderboard. Ultimately, the top five contestants engage in a final race.
The top five participants in each event receive points contributing to their overall score. First place receives 30 points, second place receives 20 points, third place receives 10 points, fourth place receives 5 points, and fifth place receives 2 points towards their pack. Ultimately, the packs are ranked, and the top three are published. It is not formal or sanctioned in any capacity. It is merely for amusement and prestige.
Upon checking my watch, which indicates 9:47 AM, I proceed towards the 100-meter human-form race. I join the queue, and due to my early arrival, only 10 individuals are ahead of me. I discovered that they permit six individuals to race simultaneously in order to record each participant’s time. Men and women can run concurrently.
