THE LUNA CHOOSING GAME - Season 2 Episode 10

Olivia’s words struck through me like a fatal blow. I didn’t deserve to be here. I knew that. Everyone

knew that.

they were nobility, all prim

But it wasn’t because I had loose morals or a child. It was simply because and proper, and I was a

shadow of my former self. A wolf–less waitress, just trying to get by.

I had no right to waste the princes‘ time.

They didn’t know that I wasn’t here for romance. I had no intention of marrying any prince. I just wanted

medical care for Elva, and to find my wolf.

I couldn’t tell them that, though, so I kept it all bundled up inside of me, buried down into the deepest

part of myself.

Let them think whatever they wanted. They would anyway, no matter what I said.

Olivia sneered, smug like she’d won a victory here.

Yet before she or I or anyone else could say another word, Nathan tapped onto his microphone and

drew all of our gazes up to the lifted platform.

“Congratulations again, on surviving the first round of eliminations,” he said.

Now that the other girls‘ attentions had been waylaid, I noticed as I looked around that the room did feel

more spacious. Even the girls who had mocked me had been much less than the typical number.

We were only down from 25 to 15, yet the difference felt like more.

However,” Nathan continued, “The competition must continue, and therefore we will begin preparations

for the next challenge you will face. This time you will each be playing hostess to the royal family for a

garden party

I tried to think what that would entail, but I didn’t participate in any garden parties at the academy. The

other girls, however, seemed like they would burst in excitement. They eagerly whispered to each other

with wide smiles on their faces

Nathan cleared his throat to silence them.

“You will each be given your own table to serve a drink and a selection of hors d’oeuvres. You will be

judged on your outfit and hosting abilities, as well as the presentation and taste of the food.”

Now, food I could do. With my restaurant experience, I knew a bit about food and how to plate it. I

I glanced around for Charlotte, and saw her standing in the back of the room, far away from the others.

With a challenge like this, everything should come together.

“Now for the twist,” Nathan said, silencing the room once more.

My stomach sunk down to the ground. Trepidation crept along my spine.

“You are to host together, two to a table. Pairs will be selected at random.”

A simultaneous gasp filled the room, then everyone began chattering at once.

“Ladies! Ladies, please! Your attention.” Once Nathan had it, he continued, “The Luna must always

maintain poise and perfection even under such duress as having to cooperate with an

adversary.”
