Tyler has been getting my mind off Chester \u2026 so weve done some stuff .<\/p>\n
Its not going to continue when we leave this place \u2026.<\/p>\n
but its nice to be wanted , you know ? She asked .<\/p>\n
I could tell there was something more she wasnt saying .<\/p>\n
It was fine if she wanted to flirt with guys and maybe go out with them , but to have sex \u2026 or do stuff with a pay shed never met before .<\/p>\n
This wasnt like Nan at all \u2026 something serious drove her to do this .<\/p>\n
Is that all ? I asked , raising my brows .<\/p>\n
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 .<\/p>\n
I have to go , I told her , handing her the water bottle .<\/p>\n
But Nan , Im your best friend .<\/p>\n
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 .<\/p>\n
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 .<\/p>\n
The truth always comes out , so dont try and hide it .<\/p>\n
I walked past her , brushing my shoulder with her as I passed .<\/p>\n
She was stunned silent and didnt say anything .<\/p>\n
Maybe it was for the best .<\/p>\n
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 .<\/p>\n
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 .<\/p>\n
I could feel my wolf inside of me ; she was on edge , and something kept catching her attention .<\/p>\n
I put my hand on my belly , hoping to calm her nerves if I just focused my attention on my breathing .<\/p>\n
Its going to be okay , I whispered .<\/p>\n
We got this .<\/p>\n
Are you talking to yourself ? Tabby asked from beside me laughter in her eyes .<\/p>\n
My wolf , I admitted .<\/p>\n
I wanted her to know that we got this and its going to be okay .<\/p>\n
Do you usually talk to your wolf ? She asked , raising her brows .noveldrama<\/p>\n
I mean , its not like she can understand you .<\/p>\n
I stared at her for a beat ; she was serious .<\/p>\n
What makes you think they cant understand us ? 1 asked , raising my brows .<\/p>\n
She let out a bark of laughter and shook her head , brushing her fingers through her pixie cut hair .<\/p>\n
Because they are animals and when we shift , we become those animals .<\/p>\n
This portion is based on their skills so hopefully your wolf is well trained , she said , studying my face .<\/p>\n
She thought our wolves were like pets ? Uncontrolled \u2026 wild animals ? Thats absurd .<\/p>\n
Ive always had full control when I shifted into my wolf before .<\/p>\n
We had always been one and the same .<\/p>\n
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 .<\/p>\n
I wondered if any of them lost control of their humanity too , or if it was just Tabby .<\/p>\n
Chapter 295 I met Tabbys eyes ; she was studying me just as I was studying her .<\/p>\n
She had pale green eyes with blue specks around her pupils .<\/p>\n
Admittedly , she had beautiful eyes , and they were equipped with long lashes .<\/p>\n
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 .<\/p>\n
Welcome to round two , the announcer said over the loudspeaker .<\/p>\n
I glanced up and saw the drones high in the air , capturing the second round .<\/p>\n
This competition was worldly televised .<\/p>\n
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 .<\/p>\n
This week is to show the chosen judges , along with the Lycans who make the final decisions , what you are made of .<\/p>\n
They are looking at precision , technique , skills , shifting , control , and so much more .<\/p>\n
In this match , you are expected to fight in both your wolf and human forms .<\/p>\n
Good luck .<\/p>\n
With that , everyone got into a position in the arena .<\/p>\n
I met the eyes of Tabby who gave me a curt nod when she , like everyone else , started to strip their clothes .<\/p>\n
I was the only one who didnt .<\/p>\n
3\u2026 2\u2026 1 \u2026 the announcer , and everyone else in the arena , chanted .<\/p>\n
Begin !!!<\/p>\n
