    Hayley’s POV:

    041%

    01: Finished

    A so–called noble, high–ranked wolf like Monica would never willingly give in to me, an “Omega”

    She stared at Baxter in disbelief, then exploded. “Impossible! You expect me to give in to some lowly Omega? Never!”

    One of Baxter’s disciples hurried forward, trying to help him up. “Master, I also think giving in is too much. Even if they had a private wager, giving in damages one’s dignity.

    “And Ms. Carson is only an Omega–how could someone of higher rank give in to her? Thatpletely goes against our rules.”

    He was Baxter’s senior disciple, respected in the chess world.

    With his words, Monica suddenly found her confidence again, her smug look aimed straight at me.

    I just folded my arms, smiling faintly, watching them without a word.

    Baxter’s face darkened. Gripping his cane, he mmed it twice against the floor with thunderous force. “If you still call me Master, then do the same!”

    Monica froze, then screamed, her voice shaking with outrage, “Why? Master!

    “You’ve always cared for me–why now, why for some worthless Omega, are you scolding me? I don’t understand!”

    She shot me a murderous re after yelling outrageously.

    I ignored her, lips curling as I turned to Baxter.

    “You want to know why? I’ll tell you why. Because she is my chess teacher.

    “I taught you those strategies, but she taught me. That makes her your teacher’s teacher. Tell me–why should you be exempt from giving in?”

    Monica’s eyes went wide, darting between me and Baxter, her voice trembling. “That … that’s impossible

    “There’s nothing impossible about it. My body may be old, but my mind is sharp. Don’t you think I know who taught me?

    “The Aetherfall Gambit itself was created by my teacher, Hayley!”

    His words dropped like thunder. The room fell intoplete silence. Every gaze snapped back to me,

    stunned.

    Even Truman’s eyes were on me, filled with shock.

    He kept staring, his deep gaze heavy with emotions I couldn’t read.

    For a moment, guilt flickered inside me–but then reminded myself, he wasn’t my destined mate, Benjamin. So why should I care?

    Baxter stayed in ce, his voice sharp as steel. “Monica, what are you waiting for? Keep your word. bp /b

    Monica’s POV:

    Never in my life did I think the chess I prided myself on would fall to Hayley, that lowly Omega.

    And never could I have imagined my most respected Master would order me to give in to her.

    Fury burned through me. My fists clenched at my clothes, my wolf raging inside, ready to break out and rip Hayley’s smug face apart.

    To think the person I despised, hated, loathed–was actually my teacher’s teacher. How could I live with

    that?

    Her mocking gaze locked onto me, and I ground my teeth so hard they ached.

    The crowd began whispering, pointing fingers at me, calling me a coward for refusing the wager.

    If I let this spread, my name would be ruined across every pack.

    After a long, painful struggle, I drew in a breath, fists clenched tight, and about to p myself in front of Hayley.

    But before my hand could strike, a pair of hands shot out, grabbing my arms and pulling me back.
