Chapter 0306
“Woah!” I heard as I slammed my fist into the punching bag. Sweat coated my forehead and the nape of my neck! lifted the boxing gloves once more and slammed 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 the competition. Today was a training day while the first group, Group A, did their second portion of the competition. Tomorrow, my group, Group B, will do the second portion. So, on this fine Wednesday, those of us who are not participating in the competition today are at the gym. I needed to blow off some steam after my talk with Nan.
It’s been a couple of hours since I last saw her, and I wasn’t too sure what I would say when I saw her. I felt bad for how I reacted to her and Tyla
though. It wasn’t 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 can’t afford to be distracted.”
“Since when did you become my coach?” I asked her, rolling my own eyes. “Aren’t we competing against each other?”
“Yes, but I like you and I don’t want to see you dead,” she said, narrowing her eyes at me. “The last two weeks of the competition are death matches. We need to be laser–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.
“Oooh, we get to use weapons this round!” Tabby said with excitement. “I wonder if we get to choose them ourselves.”
“I’m going to get a drink. Do you want anything?” I asked, my eyes remaining on Gavin. When he noticed me, eyes grew dark.

“No, I’m 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 Gavin’s 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 didn’t 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 wasn’t my place. 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 Cavin’s intense gaze.

Is there something missing between the last two chapters??...
I need more 😭😭😭2 chapters is a tease😂...
update pls......
Please I'm begging you, and I'm addicted to this book emotionally....
Hey my name is Adelaide I'm from South Africa. Please write more chapters I really want to know if Levi will be able to threaten Gavins company and what will happen with him and Judy and the baby....
yes yes I love this story...
yes voicemails I agree and please more chapters it's so interesting...
Is the author on our side? “I wanted to call Nan and Irene and tell them what was happening, but that would mean admitting that I’m pregnant with Gavin’s baby, and I’d rather skip that part. I wanted to talk to someone who already knew that part of the story, so I didn’t have to repeat it.”...
Oh for goodness sake let them both find out already. We’ll need at least 8 chapters probably 20 for his POV, her POV, her to listen to the voicemails and realise she’s had it wrong all this time and more of each side having their own POV on a single sentence...
Hmmmm...
