Chapter 0301

I wanted to tell you that you did an amazing job , she said thoughtfully .

Thank you , I replied .

Thats really nice of you .

Did your boyfriend compete ? Nan asked .noveldrama

Sammy nodded .

Yes .

Hes at the medic now getting looked at .

He should be cleared for the next round .

When will we know if we are cleared for the next round ? asked .

First the doctors have to clear you , Tabby explained .

If you have severe injuries that wont heal on time , obviously you cant compete .

So , the doctors make sure everything is okay with you .

Once they clear you , the judges and Lycan chairmen will get together and discuss whether or not they should let you through to the next round .

Once the decision is made , you get an alert .

I thought about that for a moment and then nodded .

Im starving , I murmured as we started to walk towards the resort medical clinic which wasnt far from the battle zone .

Maybe I can skip the dinner tonight and we can just have an early dinner this afternoon ? I suggested to Nan .

She opened her mouth to reply , but it was Tyler that answered .

We actually have plans tonight , he told me , a broad smile on his lips .

What ? I asked , glancing at Nan who was red in the face .

Tyler wanted to take me to a concert in the city , she told me .

Its some hard rock band and- You hate hard rock , Nan , I told her , causing her eyes to widen and her mouth to form an O shape ..

I do not ! She denied , her nostrils flaring in the way they do when shes embarrassed .

I love hard rock .

But anyways , I promised Id go with him .

I couldnt help the jab of disappointment I had in my chest .

Oh , thats okay , I told her , forcing a smile .

But hey , how about you go with us ? Nan blurted ; her eyes wide with excitement .

I knew that she wanted me to go , and this was her way of asking me to do so .

I was about to answer , not wanting my friend to experience something she was clearly going to hate by herself .

But once again , Tyler butts in .

I only had the one extra ticket , he said .

And the seats around us were taken Her going would be pointless .

Nans shoulders dropped and I saw the disappointment on her face .

I tried to keep a positive expression as I smiled at her .

Its okay .

Have fun tonight , I told her .

She nibbled on her lower lip and nodded .

We finally reached the clinic , and I hugged Nan goodbye before leaving her with Tyler .

I went into the waiting -room , which was full of shifters who had just completed .

A lot of them had blood spots on their skin , bruises , and gashes … it wasnt pretty .

But there were quite a few without a scratch on them .

The wait didnt take nearly as long as I thought it would .

There were a ton of medics in the clinic , so they were 1/2 Chapter 0301 able to move quickly through the crowd of people waiting to get checked out .

The session only lasted about 20 minutes .

They did a full body scan , bloodwork , bruise and scratch checking , breathing tests , and eyesight tests .

Once they were done , they jotted down some notes on a clipboard and gave me some antibiotics and vitamins Once I was done , I left the clinic alone .

I wasnt sure where Tabby or Sammy went , but I was glad to have a bit of alone time .

At least for right now .

I needed to clear my head of all my thoughts ; I was too stuck on Nan right now .

I was worried about her ; she was spiraling , and I didnt like what was happening or who she was hanging out with .

I wanted to give her and Tyler the benefit of the doubt , but there was something about him that I didnt trust .

I wanted to tell Chester about him , but I also didnt want to hurt Chester .

He would be devastated .

I walked into the forest , breathing in the fresh pine and feeling the soft breeze on my cheek.

I closed my eyes , taking in my surroundings without even looking .

I ran my fingers down the nearby Oaktree , allowing it to give me as much strength and energy as it could muster .

Then , I felt a hand on my hip , pulling me into the arms of someone incredibly strong with a scent that made my mouth water.

His front was to my back , and even though my eyes were closed , I knew exactly who it was .

And then he whispered , sending my heart into turmoil .

10 Dont move .
