Chapter 0306 Woah ! I heard as I mmed my fist into the punching bag .


    Sweat coated my forehead and the nape of my neck ! lifted the boxing gloves once more and mmed my other ist into the bag next .


    I heard an Dol on the other side of the bag .


    Sorry , I said , trying to will my body to calm down .


    Tabby poked her head around the bag ; a frown marring her face as she studied me .


    Everything okay ? You seem distracted today , she said , narrowing her eyes at me .


    It was the day after the first portion of thepetition .


    Today was a training day while the first group , Group A , did their second portion of thepetition .


    Tomorrow , my group , Group B , will do the second portion .


    So , on this fine Wednesday , those of us who are not participating in thepetition today are at the gym .


    I needed to blow off some steam after my talk with Nan .


    Its been a couple of hours since Ist saw her , and I wasnt too sure what I would say when I saw her .


    I felt bad for how I reacted to her and T though .


    It wasnt right for me to judge Nan on her choices ; I knew she was hurting and confused over Chester .


    She was only using Tyler as a distraction … I knew this and yet I still let my emotions get the best of me .


    Hello ? Tabby said , waving her hand in front of my face.


    blinked a few times , narrowing my eyes at her .


    Did you say something ? I asked .


    She rolled her eyes .


    You need to get your head back in the game , she said , folding her arms across her chest .


    This is serious , and you cant afford to be distracted .


    Since when did you be my coach ? I asked her , rolling my own eyes .


    Arent wepeting against each other ? Yes , but I like you and I dont want to see you dead , she said , narrowing her eyes at me .


    Thest two weeks of thepetition are death matches .


    We need to beser focused if we want to survive .


    I knew she was right ; I leaned against the wall , willing my body to calm dowIL Tabby studied me for a moment longer before she pursed her lips and stepped closer .


    Do you want to talk about it ? She asked , I could hear the sincerity in her tone and the kindness in her eyes .


    No , I admitted .


    She nodded and then thought about it for a moment .


    Want to go with me to see Group As second match ? I nodded .


    Yes , I said .


    I was eager to see what the next match would be ; my group didnt get to fight until tomorrow , and then well know who moves on to the next round .


    The arena was crowded when we arrived I found myself looking around , trying to get a glimpse of the one person I knew would be there .


    When I found him , my stomach swirled slightly , Gavin was seated with other Lycan Chairmen and the choice judges sat In  Chapter 0206 front of them .


    His expression remained stoic as he stared at the participants preparing themselves in the middle of the battlefield .


    Unlike thest match , this one they were all holding weapons .


    Oooh , we get to use weapons this round ! Tabby said with excitement .


    I wonder if we get to choose them ourselves .


    Im going to get a drink .


    Do you want anything ? I asked , my eyes remaining on Gavin .


    When he noticed me , eyes grew dark .


    his No , Im okay , Tabby said as she moved closer to the battlefield , desperate to get a closer look .


    Okay , I said , finally pulling my eyes away from Gavins and heading towards the drink stand .


    I thought about looking for Nan .


    I had ho idea where she was , and I was starting to get worried .


    She was most likely with Tyler , which made my stomach twist with nerves .


    I didnt trust him ; there was something about him that gave me a strange feeling , I thought about calling Chester and seeing if he could talk some sense into Nan or do something to keep her safe .


    But I knew Nan would be pissed that I butt in and also , it wasnt my ce .


    I had to stay out of this and just be there for her despite not agreeing with her choices .


    I was wandering around , lost in thought , barely noticing my surroundings or who was quickly approaching .


    I felt a warm hand wrap around my wrist and pull me into a broad chest .


    Arms wrapped around my body , pulling me into a corner and pressing me against a wall .


    We were in a secluded area , so no one could see us , but we were still outside , and my heart was racing as I peeked up to look at Cavins intense gaze .
