Chapter 0346
Gavin’s POV
“Alpha Gavin….?” I heard a voice from behind me as I was heading to the arena.
I paused when Megan, a woman I had once had a fling with, walked towards me,
Megan was tall and slender with long blonde hair and ocean blue eyes. She always wore elegant clothing, which made sense because her father was filthy rich, considering he owned this resort. She worked mostly as a model and traveled around a lot. I used to have a lot of business in this region and stayed at this resort in the past before, which was how I met her.
The last time I was here was over 5 years ago, and I broke it off with her before I left.
Her eyes poured into mine as she walked towards me, tucking a long strand of blonde hair behind her ear, and her naturally plump and rosy lips pressed into a thin line.
“When I heard you were here, I had to come to see for myself,” she said, folding her arms across her chest.
“I’ve been here for over a week,” I told her, raising my brows, I was surprised she was just now hearing about my arrival.
“I just got back from a work trip myself,” she said, following me towards the arena. “When I heard the competition had started, I came back early. I knew you’d be here with the other Lycans.”
I nodded, my eyes fixed on the crowd that was rushing in to greet the winners. Word had gotten around fast that a team was already on their way back. They still had several hours before the competition ended, so returning early was a good sign.
“Do
you think we can talk for a minute?” Megan asked, grabbing hold of my arm, trying to stop me before I entered through the overly crowded arched doorway that led to the arena.
I looked at her hold on my arm and then back at her, my eyes narrowed.
“There’s not much for us to say to one another, Megan,” I told her, pulling my arm out of her grasp. “We ended things several years ago.”
Her checks flushed, and she nibbled on her lower lip.
“You might not have anything to say, but I have plenty to say,” she murmured. “Things I’ve been wanting to say since you dumped me.”
Dump her?
It was a fling, and she knew this.
Ignoring her, I turned and went into the arena, finding my seat with the other Lycans. There was no way I was dealing with that mess right now.
Mica was the first to greet me with a head nod, and then Jeremy greeted me with a short wave. Per usual, Levi was in his own world, speaking to his Beta about something privately, both engrossed in their conversation and not paying attention to anyone else.
I still hated being in the same territory as that asshole. He had been after my business for years because it’s the most successful in the world.
Unfortunately for him, my business is concrete, and all his attempts at a takeover have been prevented.

I felt a hand on the back of my shoulder, and I tensed, already knowing who it belonged to.
“Please, let’s just talk,” Megan whispered.
Before I could say anything, like tell her to go away, cheering; erupted around me. I knew what it meant; a team had returned. Just as they walked in, the highlights started to play on the big screen of the team that was returning
I didn’t know I was holding my breath until I saw the team that won… blue team. That’s Judy’s team.
Soon, the teammates were being shown, and I saw Judy’s smiling face on the big screen.
The team was already walking into the arena, Judy falling to her knees out of exhaustion. My heart lurched, and 1 had to fight the urge to go to her and make sure she was okay. She had a bandage on her arm that I knew was most likely from the bear she fought yesterday. I wanted to look beneath the bandage to make sure it was healing properly, but then internally scolded myself.
