Chapter 0304
Third Person POV
Nan wasn’t sure what she was doing. She had been a complete mess for days and she could feel herself spiraling
out of control.
“My cousin really likes you,” Mac told her during lunch the day before. “He thought you were really cute and
funny and wantedto find out if you were seeing anyone.
At this point, Nan and Judy arrived in this country the day prior and Nan met Mac and Tyler later that evening.
She met Kelsey at their current lunch. She was currently watching their exchange, her eyes darting back and
forth as they spoke to one another like she was watching a volleyball game.
Seeing anyone? Nan thought to herself as she processed Mac's question. Was she seeing anyone? Her situation
with Chester wasn’t exactly black and white. Chester was her fated mate, but it seems he doesn’t want her. He's
too busy having sex with anyone that has a pulse. Would going out with a guy while on a trip out of the country
really matter to Chester?

Nan was so sure that Chester would end up rejecting her once she got back anyway, that nothing really
mattered. Maybe it was the rebound or the fact that she was on her third martini, but she found herself shaking
her head.
“I'm not seeing anyone,” she said softly, picking up her glass and taking another sip of her martini.
Mac's smile lit up the entire room as she clapped her hands together.
“He’s going to be so happy,” she cooed. “Do you want to get together tonight? Tyler wants to go to dinner and
thought we should all go together.”
Nan nodded, nibbling on her lower lip.
“Yeah, that sounds great,” she agreed.
Since that conversation, an entire day has passed. At dinner last night, Tyler was very kind to her. He sat close to
her and talked to mostly her. She tried to pretend to be interested in the things he said, but her mind kept
returning to Chester. Many times, she cursed herself.
Today, though, Tyler had been acting strangely. Almost possessively, he kept touching her, wrapping his arms
around her, whispering in her ear, kissing her. They shared a kiss the night before, but Nan stopped it before it
bectoo much. She couldn't stomach the thought of being with another while she had a mate, even if said
mate didn’t want her. But Tyler didn’t seem to get the hint; he continued to touch and kiss her despite how many
times she’s pulled away. It's like he had a silent claim on her, and then that stunt he pulled when he answered
Judy for her and then denied Judy an invitation to calong.
Nan understood that it was last minute and there were most likely no tickets for sale, but that wasn’t for Tyler to
decide. It was Nan’s invitation to her best friend, so it was her responsibility to figure something out. Not some
guy she met less than 48 hours ago.
Nan could tell that Judy was upset about the situation as well and she wanted to say something, but she was
biting her tongue. Maybe she was waiting for Nan to say something?
How did things get so messy so quickly?
“What are you thinking about?” Tyler asked, draping an arm around her and pulling her into his side. They were
seated in one of the resort parlors that overlooked a gorgeous water fountain. Nan found tranquility in this place;
there were flowers overlooking the floor-to-ceiling windows and in the distance, she could see the ocean. This
was the one place in this resort that wasn’t swarming with people because there really wasn’t much to do
besides lounge.

Chapter 0304
Before Tyler randomly showed up, Nan was seated on the loveseat with a book in her hands, trying hard not to
think about Chester, but it seemed to be the only thing her brain could do lately.
“I'm just nervous for Judy,” Nan lied; she was more than confident in Judy's abilities to kick ass, but that wasn’t
what she was thinking about. She was upset with Tyler for speaking rudely to her friend. Nan wasn’t even sure if
she wanted to go out with him, but it didn’t seem he was giving her much of a choice. He seemed to always be
around.
“I'm sure she’ll do great,” Tyler said, tucking a strand of hair behind Nan’s ear. “How about we go back to my
room and-"
“Actually, | promised Judy that | would help her with something,” Nan said, tucking her book back into her purse
which sat at her feet on the ground. She grabbed the strap of her purse and shouldered it, standing to her feet.
