Aria's pov
I could hear the rest of the crowd chattering to themselves. I dashed to her side, not giving her a moment to recover and grabbed a hold of her fur. I landed a hit above her stomach making her bend over in pain.
Once she arched her body down, I knew her in the stomach before pulling the fur of her head up. I anvled her head towards me.
Letting out a snarl of my own, my fangs descended and hovered around her neck. A sign that I could easily tear out her throat.
She whined and I let her go. I watched as she coughed out shifting back to her human form. She clutched her stomach, eyes screwed shut in pain.
"I tap out," she said.
The crowd went wild. The cheers and Applause startled me. Artemis gave me back the control and I nudged Cecily with my snout.
"I am okay," she whispered.
The minister stepped into the arena and motioned for me to shift.
A female servant brought two blankets and covered Cecily with one. I shifted and wrapped the other around my body.
