THE LYCAN KING’S SECOND CHANCE MATE

Chapter 0211

ASHANTI'S POV.

We made love almost all night and this morning, I had to beg for him to let me go to the Premium quarters and tell Tessa about the latest development. I'll be living with him in his chambers from now on. The entire Harem will blow into pieces when the news is announced and all the girls will lose their minds when they find out that Alpha Reagan and I are now boyfriend and girlfriend.

I'm the Harem girl he has chosen to be his mate.

The girl they all berated since the first day she set foot in the Harem is the girl who caught the attention of the Lycan King. That's a story that will be on the lips of every member of this pack till the end of time.

Once the driver drops me off at the Premium Residence, I head straight to the bedroom where I meet Tessa sleeping on the bed.

“Tessa.” I call, walking over to the bed. Her eyes snap open and she shakes in surprise when she sees me.

“Ashanti!” She calls happily as she heaves herself from the bed. I perch by her side, smiling from molar to molar.

“Good morning, sleeping beauty.” I chuckle after that greeting and she does the same while shaking her head.

“I definitely look like the caricature version of myself right now, so don't call me that. It's an insult to the real sleeping beauties.” My chuckles turn into full blown laughter and as I laugh, reality strikes me hard.

Moving in with Alpha Reagan means I'll no longer live with Tessa. We've had so many happy moments together as well as the sad ones. I'm going to miss her dearly.

“Ashanti, I'm sorry I didn't come to see you yesterday when things were so intense. Kelly and I were denied access into the dungeon by the Beta. We were so worried. I can only imagine what you went through.”

I let out a heavy sigh as I recall all the emotions I felt when I was locked up in that dungeon. I thought my world was coming to an end. I nearly cried my life away.

“Tessa, there's no need for you to be sorry. I know you girls did everything to get to me but the situation was too tense. What I'm grateful for is that Alpha Reagan and Delta Kyle stood up for me. If they didn't, I'd be getting punished for a crime I did not commit.”

“Rhea is the absolute worst!” She says bitterly and I nod in agreement. My anger towards her(Rhea) shot up after we had that clash at the dungeon. After hearing the flimsy reasons why she has been hating on me all this time.

“Yes, she is, but there's someone who tops that list. The Mastermind of this operation.”

“Is it who I think it is?” She asks with a hushed voice and I nod.

“Yes, it is. The one and only Alina. She brought up the plan, orchestrated it, but made sure not to take part in it. She made sure to leave trails that would lead to Rhea if the plan had to backfire and that's exactly what happened. Now, Rhea is going to take the fall alone.”

Oh, how it feels good to finally discuss this with someone and talk trash about Alina.

Tessa is in complete shock.

“Wow!” She exclaims quietly. “Now, I don't even know whether to say it serves Rhea right or be upset that Alina got away with her evil deeds again. Damn, she's good!”

“She sure is. But that doesn't mean I have given up on her. I'm not going to leave this pack until I've exposed Alina for who she really is. I'll make sure she pays for all her crimes. I don't know how I'm gonna do that, but I'll find a way.” Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

“She deserves to be punished, so don't hesitate to hit me up when you need my help. I'd gladly help in causing her downfall.” She seals her statement with a wink and I can't help the smile that keeps threatening to tear my lips.

She always steps up to help me with my plans. She's the best friend in the world.

“So, did you and Alpha Reagan reconcile?”

My face turns ox-blood at the mention of Alpha Reagan's name. When I think of the fact that we are now in a real relationship, an even wider smile splits my face into two.

“The wide smile and redness of your face tells me the answer to that question is yes.” I purse my lips and nod my head shyly. She squeals in excitement, clapping her hands and I feel like my face is going to explode because of how hot it is. “I told you he was still in love with you. He was just in a tight spot.”

“That's what he told me. He even apologised and promised to treat me better. We are now in a real relationship.”

“No way!”

“We are!”

“Like boyfriend and girlfriend?” She asks excitedly and I nod in agreement, but when I remember the reason why I'm here, the smile on my face wipes off and my face drops. “What's wrong? Why the sudden change of mood?” She asks with worry filled eyes.

“Tessa.” I call, taking her hands in mine and trying my best to maintain eye contact with her. We've been living together for many months now and we've gotten used to invading each other's space. It's true that I'm happy about moving in with Alpha Reagan, but I'm also sad about having to leave all of this behind. I know we'll still be friends, but our friendship will never be the same once I move out.

“Ashanti, your silence is scaring me. Tell me what's wrong.”
