NovelAppChapter 0134 ASHANTI'S POV.
THREE DAYS LATER.
"Strawberry!" I cry out in pain and immediately, Nelly lets go of my neck and there's ant uproar of cheers from the guys standing around. I rise to my feet and look around. The victorious smile I see on these Lycan soldiers faces irritatesto the core. My gaze meets Alina's, she winks atand I bite my lips in irritation.
Nelly and I are on the fourth round of our duel and so far, it's a draw. For three days now, we've been like cat and rats in this arena. After several attempts of trying to get her to talk toor at least tellwhat I did wrong, I finally made up my mind to let her be. Not to chase her around again.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTo reciprocate the energy she's givingand now, were acting like enemies.
If she wins this duel, they are all going to laugh atand it's going to make her feel like she's superior to me. I can't let that happen.
"Get ready to go again." Delta Kyle signals and I take my stance. Nelly is smirking at me. Winking. I'm frowning. Fighting my urge to roll my eyes.
Till this moment, I still can't understand what got over her to make her baleva ethis way towards me. She changed like a chameleon. It's almost fascinating.
At the end of the duel, I win seven out of ten rounds and Nelly is furious. Even Alina is frowning withon her behalf, but who cares? I've won. Point made. They can all go to hell for all I care.
"That was a great fight there." Says Delta Kyle as he approaches me. As usual, he has on his very sweet smile that always warms my heart. "Thank you." "Now that's the Ashanti I know." "What do y an by that?" I'm giggling as I sit down to take off my training shoes and start puttin on the ones I cin with. "The day Nelly beat you, you weren't yourself." "You toldthat." "Good. And henceforth forth, I want you to fight like this. Don't let anyone beat you in the circle when you are very much capable of beating them." "Well..." I rise from the seat, carrying my bag along. "I have no idea why you're so insistent onwinning every duel, but okay. I've heard you. I will try my best to win every duel." "Now that, makeshappy. Do you mind if I walk you to your quarters?" He asks really nicely and I shake my head without a second thought.
"I'd love for you to walkhome." +15 BONUS "Let's be on our way then." "Ashanti." A voice sounds my name. My brows shoot up in surprise when I recognize the voice.
Nelly.
Why is she calling me? I stop walking and turn to look at her while Delta Kyle walks on after signallinghe'll be waiting at the door. Nelly is smiling at me, but the smile seems forced. I don't even know how to behave around her right now.
"Nelly. Hi." I greet awkwardly. She chuckles.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Hello. I just wanted to say, great fight back there. You really did put all your mind and soul and strenght to it." "Sthing you did the other day." I flash her a tight smile. She nods knowingly.
"Yeah. You're right. Anyway, I just wanted to congratulate you on your win. That's all." "Thank you. I appreciate you doing this." "You are welcome." She turns to leave, but I call her back.
"Nelly." She stops. Turns. Trains her eyes on me. She's no longer smiling. The cheerful look on her face has ΕΠ: been replaced with a serious one. This girl definitely has a problem with me. Nothing can convinceotherwise.
"Did I do something to offend you?" "No. Why?"
"I just... you know... you've been acting really cold towardslately. Avoidingas well, so I was wondering if..."
"Ashanti I don't want to have this conversation with you. Let's just...
let's just maintaing m between us okay. It's us okay It's better that way. Have a nice day. Good bye." Then she walks away. My eyes meet with Alina's and she's smirking atas though she overheard our conversation. Now that I'm King at her, I can't help but suspect that she has something to do with this.
Is she the reason why Nelly is being cold towards me? X
