Claimed And Marked By Her Stepbrother Mates novel Chapter 168

Chapter 168: 168-They Won, But At What Cost?

Helanie:

Lamar, Penn, and I had chosen to wear black tracksuits. Everyone was offered a color theme, and we picked the pure black ones with only a red cross on our shoulders.

The other teams had already performed, and they did terribly. I arrived at the ground with hopes that the test wouldn’t be so difficult. But as the first three teams were beaten to a pulp by the monster, my confidence started to shake.

Kaye had been inspecting the whole test very thoroughly. He was making sure to let the warriors step in and save the students once they gave up on the test.

Once the students realized they could no longer continue, they would release a gas bomb matching their tracksuits on the ground.

There were three cages--long, cylindrical ones that stretched across the entire ground.

"Are you okay?" Penn slipped closer to whisper in my ear.

"I guess," I muttered, watching as Gavin, Lucy, and Jenny’s team prepared, along with two more teams.

"I hope they do well," I wished, as the others had failed miserably. My heartbeat was honestly rising with every passing minute.

It was a deadly fight, especially as the big, green, frog-like monsters attacked them with their long, thick tongues. They seemed like giant hybrid frogs.

I had only heard about them in stories. Now I was realizing why everyone said the world outside the borders of the packs was as scary as hell.

Lucy was right. I was lucky to have survived roaming in the wild on my own when such a crazy monster existed.

As Kaye started the timer, Gavin, Lucy, and Jenny ran in the direction of the woods. Kaye had changed the rules a little for our class. Every student in the team was supposed to gather one herb, so a total of three weapons. The fear of facing the frogster was so overwhelming that the students lost their focus and couldn’t even think about the herb part.

Their minds were stuck on how to fight the frogster. _{frёeωebɳovel.com}

"Don’t worry, they’ll do well," Lamar reassured as he elbowed me to look at Penn. His sister was going to be in the cage with the frogster. He looked frightened, probably even regretting that he hadn’t asked his sister to be on his team and had instead left the decision up to the piece of paper.

After about ten minutes, the teams returned with something in their hands. The cages opened, and they all got in. The frogster seemed hungry, not even letting them adjust as it threw its sticky tongue at Lucy, making her jump and roll to the other side.

"Watch out!" I screamed, instantly covering my mouth because my voice could distract them.
