ASHANTI’S POV.“Good morning Nelly.” I offer her a small smile as I walk into the arena. She sure is an early bird because it’s still eight in the morning and she’s already sweating, meaning she has been here for a while now, warming up.“Good morning Ashanti. How are you today?” She asks cheerfully

ASHANTI’S POV.When I arrive at the bedroom today, I meet Tessa. She rises from her bed with fat smile on her face as she watches me slum on the wool carpet before her bed. I’m sweating and so I don't want to sit on the bed till I have showered.“You look cheerful today.” She remarks and my smile wi
ASHANTI’S POV.“Delta Kyle, thank you very much for walking me home, even though you really didn’t have to.” I tell the Delta as we both stop in front of the Harem building. The fact that he’s walking by my side has earned me glares and shocked stares from the other Harem girls walking around and I
“Rhea.” I call, trying to steady my breath. “You have no business with that picture, so give it back to me. “Please.” My voice breaks in two halves as I add that last word. “Please just give back to me.” My heart is constricting in my chest like there’s a hand around it, squeezing all the blood from
ASHANTI’S POV.I try to stay strong as I scrub the floor. I try to keep myself from crying, but whenever the broken image of the framed photo flashes in my mind, it makes my heart hurt until I can’t take it anymore. I let my tears fall and sob like a baby.That was the only beautiful thing I had lef

ASHANTI’S POV.“Strawberry!” Nelly screams under my hold and I instantly release her arm and jump up to my feet, panting.I won again.“Stop!” Alpha Reagan signals. I heave out a heavy sigh of relief. Nelly and I have been fighting for the goddess knows how long and I’ve won seven out of ten rounds.
ASHANTI’S POV.“Good day to you, my Lord Alpha.” Leonard, who’s still standing by my side, greets the disgruntled looking Alpha Reagan with a bow.“Good day to you, Leonard.” He replies with his deep voice laced with dark undertones. I guess he still dislikes seeing me with Leonard. He’s going to lo
He’s stolen all of my heart yet he has the guts to live with another woman in his chambers…Ashanti, now you are going off topic. Leonard’s standing right before you. Focus your thoughts on him and the conversation you are having with him.“I uh…” I stutter, pushing a few strands of hair that keep f

REAGAN'S POV. I don't know if Selena left like commanded her to before exiting the room because I didn't spend the night in my bedroom when I returned from my walk. It felt so wrong to go back in there and sleep on the same bed a few hours after a naked woman other than Ashanti had slept on it. Doi

REAGAN’S POV.I'm all smiles as I walk towards the main door of the house, trying my best not to smile too widely as I nod in response to the guard’s greetings as I walk past them. The author and finisher of this very giddy mood I'm currently immersed in, is no one else but Ashanti, the love of my l
ASHANTI'S POV. My heart is ticking like a time bomb as I'm being led by a guard to Alpha Reagan's office. After that very bone chilling conversation with Tamara, I made a last minute decision to come over here and thank Alpha Reagan for keeping his promise to me, but right now, I sort of regret tha
CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED AND SEVENTY-SEVEN. ASHANTI'S POV. “I'm not even surprised about this revelation. She really looks like someone who would do such a thing. How pathetic!” Kelly, my colleague, comments bitterly as we walk out of the hall. I am fuming with rage and only the goddess knows what I'
ASHANTI'S POV. “Thank you.” I mumble to the guard who just opened the door for before stepping out of the car. Fresh air caresses my face as I look around the premises and I engage in a small fight with my flying hair strands before succeeding in tucking them behind my ears. It's Sunday afternoon a
