Aria's pov
It wasn't surprising to be summoned by the minister in charge of the games.
I sighed to myself as I stood in front of the large brown door and waited for me to be called in.
I knew I did terribly in the test but it wasn't enough reason to disqualify me in the first round.
I tried to talk myself out of it but I guess I deserved what was coming to me. I messed up after all.
How on earth would I reject that arrogant king if I don't step up my game. I could hear movement behind it and I perked my ears to listen but it was muffled.
A guard came in front of it and nodded at me, "You can go in now,"
I mumbled a thank you and opened the doors, the first thing that greeted me was the cool air as it blasted against my skin.
I sucked in a breath and rubbed my arms, I always run hot but this place was ice cold.
