Chapter 340

Chapter 0340 Third Person POV Back in the arena, the competition streaming of the island was being played on a large screen. Today was day two of the island competition, and Nan had gone bright and early to watch.

She didn’t like sleeping in the hotel suite by herself last night; she felt alone and clouded with thoughts. But she knew this was important to Judy; this was the reason she was here, and Nan would support her 100% of the way.

The arena was crowded as everybody wanted to watch the competitors on the big screen, the island being captured by drones.

Nan decided to go to the arena by herself, needing a break from Tyler and the girls. Spending time with him has been exhausting, and he’s giving her strange vibes lately. He’s been moody and showing signs of violent tendencies.

She stared down at the bruise on her first from the other day when she told him she needed space. She tried to walk away, but he grabbed her hard and told her not to walk away from him.

It scared her, she had to admit. She saw violence and anger in his eyes, and it made her shudder. It made her fear walking away from him. She counted the days until she could leave this country and return home.

Despite everything, home sounded really nice right now.

Her mind kept wandering back to Chester... her mate. The one who didn’t want her, the one she ran away from home because.

Her heart ached.

She wondered what he was doing and who he was doing it with. Because they weren’t bonded, she couldn’t feel it when he was intimate with other women. But she wondered if it was still sleeping with that maid or maybe Becca from the boutique. Nan was certain there were others; he was the kind of guy who slept around without a care in the world. She didn’t think a mate would stop that.

Did he even know she wasn’t in the country?

Her heart ached even more at the thought, and she swallowed down a sob.

“Hey, girl,” Mac said, sitting down beside her, a frown marring her lips. “Where have you been? Tyler is upset. He’s looking for you.”

Nan’s face grew pale; the thought of Tyler upset did not sit right with her. She rubbed the bruise on her wrist, remembering the last time he was upset. Mac didn’t seem to notice, though, and watched the big screen thoughtfully, leaning back in her seat.

“I’ve been here. I just needed some space,” Nan admitted.

“Kelsey is trying to calm him,” Mac said, rolling her eyes. “He’s overly dramatic sometimes.”

“Where is he?” Nan asked, looking around, trying to get a glimpse of him.

“Right outside the arena,” she answered.

Nan nodded and stood; there was no use in Tyler causing a scene because of her. She wouldn’t let them embarrass her like that.

She truly needed to cut ties with him and end this once and for all.

She started towards the entrance, her head held high as she struggled to keep her nerves under control.

She could hear the yelling before she even reached the doorway, and her heart dropped into her stomach.

1/2 Chapter 0340 “You are acting irrational, Tyler,” Kelsey said, folding her arms across her chest. “What is wrong with you?”

“I don’t like being lied to,” Tyler said through his teeth.

“Nobody is lying to you,” Kelsey assured him. “Why do you think otherwise?”

“She told me she would be in her room, and she wasn’t,” Tyler growled. “That’s literally the definition of lying.” “Well, her plans must have changed,” Kelsey said, narrowing her eyes. “Why does it even matter?”

He opened his mouth to respond, but then his eyes flickered to Nan, who was standing by the arched doorway, his eyes darkening almost immediately.

Nan’s heart was in her throat; how did she end up in this position in only a week? Well, it’s been a little over a week since she met Tyler, but still, it wasn’t supposed to end up this way. He was only supposed to be a distraction. Some late–night fun while Judy was busy. But he turned out to be a monster, and it terrified her.

Kelsey turned and saw Nan, her eyes shining with sympathy.

“He’s all yours,” Kelsey said, sighing. “Maybe you can calm him and talk some sense into him?”

She walked past Nan and walked through the arched door, going to find Mac, leaving Nan and Tyler alone.

There were still a few people around, but for the most part, most were in the arena watching the live stream. However, Tyler wanted to be alone with her, so without even breaking the ice, he grabbed a hold of her wrist and yanked her along with him.

It was the same wrist he had grabbed before, the already bruised spot aching from his grip, making her wince. “Come with me,”

he demanded, his tone rough.

Nan’s heart pounded in her chest, but she didn’t argue. It was best if they spoke alone anyway. Her wolf stirred inside of her like she was getting ready to shift for some unknown reason, but Nan pushed her down, trying to soothe her and herself at the same time. It was probably just anxiety and the fact that Tyler was dragging her away like some dog.
