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
ASHANTI’S POV.“What was that about yesterday?” I have been muttering that question since I woke up this morning. I have searched my mind for answers, but I’ve still not gotten any clue.Since the day Delta Kyle set his eyes on me, he has been nothing but nice and sweet and friendly to me. He helps
ASHANTI’S POV.“All done!” The make-up artist in charge of me announces cheerfully. I’m staring at my reflection in the mirror, unable to recognise myself. The make-up is too much, too wild, too bright. I hate it! But the other girls seem to adore it because of how they are gushing at their reflecti
“Not so fast.” His brows crease. “You can’t just serve me wine and be on your way. You have to stay and make sure I'm entertained as I drink.” He pulls me to sit on his lap. I cringe when my butt touches the fabric of his trousers.Damn this dress!It keeps sliding up, showing more of my thighs. One
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
Freshen up, get on my bed and reminisce about my day with Ashanti till dawn.I am a finished man.Exhaling heavily, I stretch my hand forward and creak the door knob. I push the door open and step into the warm, cosy bedroom, making sure to close it behind me. My eyes go straight to my bed, the onl
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
