Chapter 295
Chapter 0295 Nan , whats going on ? I asked her .
Tyler has been getting my mind off Chester … so weve done some stuff .
Its not going to continue when we leave this place ….
but its nice to be wanted , you know ? She asked .
I could tell there was something more she wasnt saying .
It was fine if she wanted to flirt with guys and maybe go out with them , but to have sex … or do stuff with a pay shed never met before .
This wasnt like Nan at all … something serious drove her to do this .
Is that all ? I asked , raising my brows .
When she didnt answer right away , I sighed , I opened my roouth to say something more , but then the announcer went over the loudspeaker and called all the competitors to the arena for round 2 .
I have to go , I told her , handing her the water bottle .
But Nan , Im your best friend .
If you cant talk to me about whats going on with you , then who can you talk to ? Id rather you didnt replace me with Tyler .
It hurts my feelings I dont like feeling lied to and Id like to know the truth from you before it gets out some other way .
The truth always comes out , so dont try and hide it .
I walked past her , brushing my shoulder with her as I passed .
She was stunned silent and didnt say anything .
Maybe it was for the best .
I joined the others in the arena Like the last round , we were judged based on our skills and capability to survive during a battle .
We were forbidden to kill anybody , but we could either damage them so badly that they couldnt compete in the next round , which disqualifies them from the competition , or we could try to convince them to give up .
I could feel my wolf inside of me ; she was on edge , and something kept catching her attention .
I put my hand on my belly , hoping to calm her nerves if I just focused my attention on my breathing .
Its going to be okay , I whispered .
We got this .
Are you talking to yourself ? Tabby asked from beside me laughter in her eyes .
My wolf , I admitted .
I wanted her to know that we got this and its going to be okay .
Do you usually talk to your wolf ? She asked , raising her brows .
I mean , its not like she can understand you .
I stared at her for a beat ; she was serious .
What makes you think they cant understand us ? 1 asked , raising my brows .
She let out a bark of laughter and shook her head , brushing her fingers through her pixie cut hair .
Because they are animals and when we shift , we become those animals .
This portion is based on their skills so hopefully your wolf is well trained , she said , studying my face .
She thought our wolves were like pets ? Uncontrolled … wild animals ? Thats absurd .
Ive always had full control when I shifted into my wolf before .
We had always been one and the same .
Was Tabby saying she doesnt have control of herself when shes in wolf form ? I glanced around the arena at other competitors who had already stripped naked , ready to shift and fight .
I wondered if any of them lost control of their humanity too , or if it was just Tabby .
Chapter 295 I met Tabbys eyes ; she was studying me just as I was studying her .
She had pale green eyes with blue specks around her pupils .
Admittedly , she had beautiful eyes , and they were equipped with long lashes .
I could also see that her desire to win was deep in her soul ; she had a lot of passion , and it was clear as day to me .
Welcome to round two , the announcer said over the loudspeaker .
I glanced up and saw the drones high in the air , capturing the second round .
This competition was worldly televised .
There was no sign of the announcer , but it was to be assumed he was high enough to be able to see everything , Like the last round , killing is not allowed ; you will be disqualified .
This week is to show the chosen judges , along with the Lycans who make the final decisions , what you are made of .
They are looking at precision , technique , skills , shifting , control , and so much more .
In this match , you are expected to fight in both your wolf and human forms .
Good luck .
With that , everyone got into a position in the arena .
I met the eyes of Tabby who gave me a curt nod when she , like everyone else , started to strip their clothes .
I was the only one who didnt .
3… 2… 1 … the announcer , and everyone else in the arena , chanted .
Begin !!!
