Chapter 389 "Judy Montague," One of the men I didn't recognize said as he stepped forward, offeringhis hand, which I took and shook. "You are quite impressive. I've been watching you and from day one I knew you were going to make it far." "Thank you," I replied as sweetly as I could.
"We are the top commanders for sof the Elite forces around the world; we have gathered here to scope recruits and to meet with the victor of the competition. With that being said, we are interested in working with you and making you one of our Elite Gammas. Of course you can only choose one of us. We have put together a packet of the details for each of our forces that you can look over on your own time. But I just wanted to introduce myself properly." He handeda thick folder with his territory logo printed on the front.
"Thank you," I said again.
He stepped aside and allowed for the others to introduce themselves as well, pretty much the sway, and then handtheir folders as well. They were such thick folders that I knew it was going to take stto go through. I was already overwhelmed as is.
"Thank you for stopping by gentlemen, she'll be in touch," Gavin said, shaking each of their hands and dismissing them.

"Now that that's out of the way, they are the Top Elite forces in the world, but they aren't the only ones. You were sent an email with the listing of each force around the world. As the winner of the competition, you can choose any of them. Also, there's a 5 million prize money as well and a trophy. The money is being wired to your account as we speak," Levi continued to explain, my heart pounding in my chest when I thought about that money.
I could do a lot with that money.
Mica stepped around the corner with a large trophy and a grin on his face.
"Congrats Miss Montague," Alpha Mica said thoughtfully as he handedthe heavy trophy. Nan and Irene had to helphold it.
"Thank you," I said with a proud smile. “It's surreal; I still can't believe I won." "Believe it," Nan said, pattingon the shoulder. "You did incredible." "Truly," Irene agreed.
"Tomorrow is the ceremony to celebrate your victory and the competition as a whole," Alpha Levi said, his eyes on me. "It's formal attire and obviously you are expected to be there. It'll be held in the resort's entertainment center ballroom. Your friends are invited as well." "Okay, I'll be there," I told him.
My flight hwasn't until the day after tomorrow anyways, so that worked out fine. He nodded and without another word, he turned and left. Alpha Mica and Alpha Jeremy left after him, but Gavin remained.
"Where's Matthew?" He asked Irene.
"With Chester," Irene replied.

"Thanks," I said, my tone almost indifferent.
After another beat of silence, he finally left.

After a few rings, the other line was picked up.
"You did well during this competition; she doesn't suspect a thing," Levi said to his contact. "We move onto the next phase. Are you ready?"
"I feel kind of bad playing her like this..." the contact's soft voice said op the other end. "It's not right." "It's necessary," Levi snapped, speaking through his teeth. "We made an agreement; you aren't backing down onnow, because I can get your sister to do this instead."
"Are you kidding me? Chrissy would crack under the first sign of O m pressure is contact hissed, her rage clear. "You can't be serious." "Don't test me," Levi murmured. "Now, are you able to handle this next task?"
