Claire’s gaze grew increasingly resolute with each setback, each battle fought and lost.
She had no choice, she had to stay in the ring.
The only options before her were to fight for a living or to step outside and face the grim reality of starvation.
Despite the pain radiating through her body, Claire pushed herself to rise, but her limbs felt heavy and soaked in crimson. There was no way she could get up.
After one last desperate attempt, everything faded to black.
When Claire finally regained consciousness, she found herself
back in the basement of Halfmoon Manor.
She couldn’t shake the feeling that Frederick was the one who had brought her back; no one else would have bothered.
Claire tried to move her arms, only to be met with a wave of soreness that coursed through her body. It felt as if her bones were about to splinter apart, and every inch of her ached.
Thoughts of the fight flooded her mind, and she began to worry about what was happening at the underground boxing ring.
Just then, her phone buzzed to life.

It was a call from Felix at the Black Horse Underground Boxing Ring.
“Claire, when can you come back to work? I’m setting up some matches,” Felix said, his tone casual, as if she had been under his wing for years.
“What?” Claire could hardly believe her ears.
She thought, “I passed out! I didn’t even beat Brian. Why would Felix want me back in the ring?”
“You can always opt out, but…” Felix continued, misinterpreting her silence as hesitation.
“No, I really want to stay! Thank you for this opportunity!” Claire interjected quickly.
“Great! So when can you start fighting?” Felix replied, his voice all business.
At that moment, Claire’s mind flickered to Frederick, but she quickly dismissed the thought.
She thought, “There’s no way Frederick would help me stay in the boxing ring. He hates me; he probably wishes I’d just disappear.”
“I’m ready anytime,” Claire answered Felix, her urgency palpable.

“Perfect! I’ll have someone add you to the schedule. You’re on for matches starting today,” Felix said before hanging up.

About an hour later, Claire received a message detailing the time and match–ups for her upcoming fights.
Claire scanned the information and noted that her first match was set for the next afternoon. A wave of dread washed over her as she considered her injuries.
There was no way she could fight after what Brían had done to her.
But if she turned Felix down, she feared he might drop her altogether.
Glancing at the details of her first match, Claire noted that her opponent was an unknown fighter.
Claire let out a quiet sigh of relief. “I can handle this. Even in my condition, I should be able to manage someone like that.”
The next day, Claire got dressed and freshened up, determined to face whatever awaited her.
By the time she arrived at the Black Horse Underground Boxing Ring, it was already 9:30 a.m.
As Claire stepped inside and headed toward Felix, she suddenly felt a hand cover her mouth, and she was yanked away.
“Mmm… mmm!”

Claire struggled, trying to break free,
“Hey there, beautiful. Do you know where I can find Frederick?”
