Beating an apology
Ronan's cold voice filled the arena as he said " Apologise .... this is your last chance ".
Mad-Dog had no words to speak when he saw Ronan fit and fine and unscratched from his very best attack as for the first time in his life he was scared of a noble not because of their status but their power.
His pride was too high for him to apologise about the comment on Ronan's grandmother as although he knew it in his mind that it was only a joke and that Ronan was taking it wayy to seriously he could not explain it to the guy anymore and act like a wimp.
As he looked at the mocking gazes of everyone in the arena his hysteria and inferiority complex kicked in as he decided that even if Ronan was stronger there was no way in hell that he was going to be humiliated today on this stage.
He had worked way too hard in life to change from an street rutt to the warrior he was today and he would be damned if he was to be showed down by a noble.
