Too Late for My Shifters' Regret novel · Chapter 19 of 24
Chapter 19: Wings
The semifinal draw was posted on the arena gate at half past eleven.
My roommate read it first and said a word I'd never heard her say.
Briony Ashlock, against a final-year keeper and her lion.
SSS.
"Of course," I said. "Of course it is."
I gave the basket of eggs to the cook at the rail.
She settled it on her lap and put both her floury hands over the blanket.
Pip went to my roommate.
The griffin girl stood at the rail beside them with her hands in fists.
The lion's keeper was a tall, cool girl with a gold cord around her neck, the one who'd been top of our year since first term.
She'd never said a word to me in four years.
She nodded to me across the sand, once, politely.
That was worse than if she'd laughed.
Her lion came out after her.
He was a big man with a gold mane of hair, and when he went down on his hands he came up a lion the size of a carriage horse.
His mane was like a bonfire.
The whole arena roared for him.
I put my hand on the back of Cassius's neck.
"How much?" he said.
