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.Flabbergasted is the right adjective to use to describe my current state. I'm glued to my spot, my mouth is hanging open in shock as I gape at Delta Kyle who’s smiling down at me like he has lost his mind.I came out of the building and met him here, waiting for me.He wants to walk w
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.“The Delta suggested a duel between you and Alpha Reagan during training?” Tessa asks in a harsh whisper as we both pick up our plates and cutleries from the pantry and put on our trays before joining the line of girls going to get their meals. It’s dinner time.“You needed to see th
ASHANTI’S POV.Tessa and I both lost our appetites after that incident. We could very well get food again, but we decided to leave the cafeteria after cleaning up the mess. She went straight to bed while I came out for a walk. I still have about two hours before our ten pm curfew and I want to spend
“Oh…” Is all I manage. Now I understand why he’s always so understanding . He’s guilty of the same crime. I can only imagine the look of terror on the guys’ faces whenever they ring the doorbell and Leonard opens the door and starts interrogating them.Chills!“Yeah. So, are you ready to leave?”“I
ASHANTI’S POV.My shoulders rise and fall as I let out a small sigh and stare at my reflection in the mirror in front of me. My blue eyes stare right back at me, hard, and I can bet they are judging me for insisting on going on this outing with Leonard, but I don’t care about their judgment either.
REAGAN’S POV.“And I’m not comfortable with you living under the same roof with another woman.”Ashanti’s declaration burns in my mind as I take the elevator ride to the floor where my office is located. Heck, I’m not comfortable living with another woman under the same roof either. I’m not doing th
She knows all that talk about me staying here so I can practice more with my team members is utter crap. She knows Alpha Reagan is the only reason why I want to be here.“Alright honey. If you say so. But remember I’m just a phone call away. Do not hesitate to call me if there’s anything wrong with
ASHANTI’S POV.My heart sinks into my stomach when I hear Reagan’s car zoom out of the premises. I hate starting a fight with him, but with his recent behavior, I couldn’t help it. It’s annoying when he acts so possessive of me, but can’t decide if he wants to end up with me or his ex-mate who’s liv
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
ASHANTI’S POV.“Congratulations to the top 5 contestants of today’s phase of the competition. You all created outstanding designs and deserve to be at the top. Let’s give a round of applause to these magnificent design teams.” The hall erupts with applause from the other contestants and I can't help
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
