Story: Mated to Ruin

However, as soon as he finishes speaking, his eyes gradually widen and he stares fixedly at me on the platform.
“This… How is this possible?”
Talon suddenly gets up.
Everybody stands up.
“This… This can’t be real, right?”
Because they are feeling the power of an Alpha wolf.
In the midst of a crisis, my wolf has long since regained its Alpha power, and she has developed incredible healing abilities. The silver arrow never seriously injured me.
I’d suspected Talon’s bad intentions for a long time, so I never told him about my Alpha wolf.
The massive silver-grey wolf appears behind me, her presence commanding absolute authority, and her eyes glow with ancient power, causing every werewolf in the arena to instinctively submit.
“BANG!”
The host knocks the microphone to the floor, grips the table with white knuckles, and stares at my wolf, terrified.
“It’s impossible…” How could it be an Alpha wolf?”
His voice cracks with the final word.
My Alpha wolf’s power knocks the security guards who were restraining me to the ground, causing their bodies to hit the floor hard.
One guard scrambles away, his face pale. “I can’t… I can’t move!”
Another whispers in horror, “She is more powerful than our Alpha!”
I say calmly, my voice carrying across the silent arena.
“Sorry, but my Alpha wolf thinks you’re all too weak. She did not want to waste time coming out. It took me a while to persuade her that some insects should be stepped on.”
I pause and let my gaze sweep across the terrified faces.
“Hope you’ll forgive the delay.”
Some people collapse into their chairs in disbelief, while others press against the walls, desperate to get away from my wolf.
“This can’t be real,” someone says quietly.
“She was supposed to die!”
“How long has she hidden this?”
I look straight at the host, who is still frozen behind his table.
“Can I continue to participate in the remaining duels? Are you all suddenly too busy?”
The host rushes to recover, wiping rivers of cold sweat from his brow.
“Yes, yes!” Uh… *cough!* Challengers, please step onto the platform!”
His voice is shrill from panic.
The entire venue erupts into chaos.
“I am not fighting that!”
“Are you insane?” That is a f*****g Alpha Wolf!”
“She could kill all of us without breaking a sweat!””
The men who had previously harassed me now slump in their chairs, their earlier bravado gone.
The warrior who called me a “used bitch” is now hyperventilating: “Oh god, what did I say to her?”
His friend beside him is shaking so violently that his teeth chatter. “We’re dead.” “We are all dead.”
They’re nothing more than prey animals when compared to my Alpha wolf, despite their experience as warriors.
Remembering what they did to me, what they said, cold sweat beads on their foreheads, the remaining werewolves abandon any idea of duelling due to the massive power gap.
No one approaches the platform.
Everyone stares in disbelief, their previous excitement transformed into outright fear.
“How come she has an Alpha wolf? Wasn’t she seriously injured?”
“Did Alpha lie to us? Has Seraphina always hidden her true strength?”
“Bullshit! Why would the Alpha deceive us?”
“Perhaps he didn’t know either!”
I stand up slowly and deliberately, walking step by step towards Talon’s seat.
Each footfall reverberates in the terrified silence.
My Alpha wolf can no longer contain herself; she charges forward, pinning Talon down with supernatural speed before he can react.
