The rogue slammed intoinstead of her. Its claws raked across my shoulder, tearing through the white blouse
and into the skin beneath. | gritted my teeth against the pain and swung around, reaching deep withinfor my
wolf's strength.
A moment later, | stood on four legs instead of two. “Finally,” my wolf sighed in relief. “Sgood, old-
fashioned bloodshed.”
Years of warrior training kicked in in an instant. | swiped my claws at the rogue’s face, catching it right in the
eye. Blood spurted from its fresh wound, making it stagger back, but it didn’t go down just yet. Instead, it
whirled towardwith a snarl, yellow eyes blazing with feral anger.
Anya screamed again, frozen in place.
The rogue whirled toward her and lunged again, but this time, | was ready. | leapt in between it and Anya, this
tclamping my jaws around its neck with a sickening crunch. The wolf yelped and struggled.
With all my might, | bit down harder. And harder.

my Luna body.
Wrenching free from my jaws, the rogue circled aroundthen swiped atagain. It caught my foreleg. | cried
out in pain, crumpling to the forest floor.
“Stella!” Anya cried out, rushing toward me. “Help! She’s hurt!”
The rogue leapt again. Its matted gray fur blotted out the sun overhead as it covered my body with its own. For a
moment, all | saw were jaws snapping at my face.
Somehow, using all my force, | managed to kick it away, sending it skidding across the forest floor. While it was
distracted, | scrambled to my feet and pounced.
The pain was almost unbearable, turning everything else into a haze. | wasn’t sure where my blood ended and
the rogue’s began. Each movement felt like | was tearing into a deeper layer of flesh in the wounds that had
formed.
But I bit down. Hard.
Warmth gushed into my mouth. The rogue sputtered and struggled beneath me, but | held fast, even as its larger
body writhed and bucked. | clamped down harder.
Then, with one final burst of strength, the rogue threwsideways against the tree next to us. Blinding light
shot through my skull as my head made impact with the hard wood, and the world went black.

When | cto, | found that | was back in my human form. Anya’s face was hovering overwith tears in her
eyes.
“Stella, you're awake,” she said, her face lighting up.
| tried to sit up, but the pain was overwhelming and made my head spin. | collapsed back against the tree and
managed in a small, breathless voice, “Is it... Is it dead?”
Anya nodded vigorously and grinned from ear to ear. “Yes. You were amazing!”
Thank the Goddess. My body felt like it was falling apart, but Anya was uninjured and the rogue’s form was
motionless in the background.
Suddenly, crashing echoed through the forest. | looked over to see that other contestants had crunning,
eyes widening when they saw the scene.
Within minutes, the clearing was full of contestants and hunt officials. They foundsitting up against the tree,
covered in blood, with the rabbit's body lying nearby where the rogue had killed it.
And the dead rogue, of course, was not far off.
“What happened here?” one of the officials demanded.
“A rogue attacked us,” | said simply. “I killed it.”
“And the rabbit?”
I glanced at Anya, who was still staring atlike | was her hero. “Anya killed the rabbit. | just happened to be
nearby when the rogue showed up,” | lied.
Anya blinked at me. “Stella-"
| cut her off with a squeeze of her hand and a watery smile. She wanted this more than | did. | never intended to
get to the next round of this stupid Luna Trial-l was just glad she didn’t get hurt.
