The Lycan King's Fate Calling novel Chapter 297

Ethan's POV:

I stared at the farce unfolding before me, wide-eyed and speechless. Warren's acting was horrendous!

"They're not taking the competition seriously! Do they think we're idiots or something?" Shawn stood up and whined incessantly.

Thankfully, the Gamma sitting next to him yanked him back to his seat and whispered something in his ear. Shawn's expression changed dramatically. He immediately fell silent and sat down meekly, not daring to say anything more.

Back in the day, Shawn's parents were very powerful. Unfortunately, their power didn't translate to their child. Even after Gamma Mateo's training, Shawn grew up to be a spineless loser. He didn't have what it took to be an Alpha at all.

After so many years, Mateo's ambition was painfully obvious. Poor Shawn was just a puppet. Even just thinking of the future of the Black Moon Pack gave me a serious headache.

I sighed heavily. Then, Martin's cheerful voice interrupted my thoughts.

"I don't think Warren's acting. He's probably that weak in reality."

I raised my eyebrows, admiring Martin's consistency. From the parade to now, he had never stopped talking. There were always some people who either echoed his sentiments or argued with him, such as that stubborn Owen, but Martin always remained stood by his beliefs. "I think you should have your eyes checked." Owen's retort triggered yet another round of quarrels.

Martin was not the kind of person who would easily admit defeat. Whenever he argued with others, his whole face would contort with anger. "Did I say something wrong? Warren is a good kid. Why would he cheat and let her win deliberately in front of so many people? Just calm down and admit defeat. There's nothing to be ashamed of."

Owen rolled his eyes and stomped his foot. "How dare you say something like that about my son? Have you forgotten that your son was beaten to a pulp by a thin, weak werewolf before? Although your son Harry has a strong built, I think he is physically very weak."

The two quarreling werewolves started raising their voices louder and louder, to a point where things were getting out of hand.

Finally, I coughed loudly to put an end to this. "Leadership is one of the aspects we consider in this selection. I have a feeling that these kids all believe in Sylvia, which proves that she is a capable leader. Besides, the competition isn't over yet. We still don't know what the outcome will be."

Hearing this, Owen regained his composure and smiled brightly. "You're right. We can't draw any conclusions now. Talent is important, but knowing when to seize opportunities is important as well. We don't want our kids to grow up to be someone who still acts rash and impulsive, doing nothing but mess around all day."
