Chapter 0343
Nan nodded ; he did come all this way , after all .
It was only right that he was allowed to sleep on the couch .
It pulls out , she told him .
He seemed to have relaxed .
He soon cleared his throat and turned to her .
First aid kit ? He asked as he headed towards the bathroom .
Its behind the door , she said softly , sitting on her bed .
Chester returned a moment later with the first aid kit in hand .
He grabbed what he needed and sat beside her .
His eyes were dark with anger as he cleaned up her lip and applied a cream on her swollen cheek .
The silence stretched on , making Nan uncomfortable .
She tried to avoid looking into his eyes , but he was so close to her that it couldnt have been helped .
Who was that guy ? he finally asked after what felt like an eternity of silence .
A distraction , she whispered without hesitation .
But he went crazy .
He didnt reply right away ; he allowed her words to sink in fully before he nodded slowly .
Did you sleep with him ? Nans eyes snapped back to his .
Why does it matter ? She asked .
Because youre my mate- Youve slept with any woman that walks by you ! Nan practically shouted .
So again , I ask … why does it matter who I sleep with ? A low growl escaped his lips at her words .
He knew he was wrong for being upset because she was right .
He wasnt a big fan of monogamy , and he made that quite clear to anyone and everyone , including his mate .
He dates women , leads them on , sleeps with them , and never calls them back .
Harper was the only one he truly spent more than one night with .
Now he had a mate , and things were confusing for everyone involved .
He spent the past week trying to convince Harper to let him go , but she doesnt seem willing to do so .
He had a moment of weakness one of the nights last week and slept with her , telling himself that it would only be one more time .
It seemed to have set Harper off , though , and shes adamant about keeping him in her life romantically because shes in love with him … her words .
Chester made it clear he couldnt be with her after he woke up the next morning riddled with guilt .
His wolf was miserable without Nan .
Judy told him where they were going to be before they left , and he went straight there .
The only issue was he didnt have Judys room number , so he had to ask the front desk clerk .
But they refused to give him the information without Judys permission .
His wolf picked up on the danger with his mate right away and knew she was in the area , so after his argument with the front desk clerk , he let his wolf guide him to where Nan was .
He saw Tyler raise his hands to her , and then he saw fucking red .
He couldnt control himself anymore until he realized others were now there and attempting to stop him .
10 Chapter 0343 He couldnt bring himself to fight them , too , because they were women , and he was against hurting women .
He had no choice but to calm down and let Tyler go … but if he had it his way , Tyler wouldnt be alive right now .
Why would Nan choose to spend time with him ? The dude was a jerk .
I slept with Harper after you left , Chester found himself saying bluntly , making Nans attention snap to his face .
She hated that she felt hurt by what he had said .
She blinked back tears as she stared up at him .
It was only once , and I felt guilty about it .
I booked a flight here , and a few days later , I was on the plane , he continued , his voice casual as he put the supplies back into the first aid kit .
Why are you telling me this ? She asked him softly .
He shrugged .
Youre my mate , whether we like it or not .
Stuff like that shouldnt be kept a secret if we want to make this work .
She blinked at him , confused .
And do you want to make it work ? She asked him .
There was a beat of silence , and when he didnt answer , she let herself let out a breath that she had been holding .
I didnt sleep with Tyler , she whispered .
He tried , but I denied him .
We had gone on dates and did other things , though .
His jaw clenched at the image of her doing other things and going on dates with Tyler , but he nodded slowly , keeping himself under control .
When he didnt say anything else , she took a deep breath and decided to ask him the question that shed been wondering since the day she found out she was his mate .
Are you going to reject me ? His eyes flashed to her ; truth be told , he had thought about it on many occasions .
But now that she was asking this question and sitting right in front of him with her big , pretty eyes and her innocent expression , he was even more conflicted .noveldrama
And all he could muster was a whispered , I dont know .
