“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.I’m awoken by a banging sound on my room door. Tessa shakes on her bed as well and we both look at the door, totally confused as another loud banging sound crashes through the atmosphere.“Who the fuck is that?” Tessa asks, jumping down from her bed.“Ashanti! Ashanti opens up this do
REAGAN’S POV.A silent sigh leaves my chest when I walk into the arena and there’s still no sign of Ashanti. She wasn’t here yesterday or the day before and I hate to say this, but I'm worried. She could have fallen ill and no one here knows about it. The training we engage in here, is quite intense
ASHANTI’S POV.“You have just two hours to clean this bathroom.” The servant who leads the way into the bathroom says as we take a stand at the center. Today is day two of my punishment and not only am I starving because the last time I had a meal was about twenty-four hours ago, I feel vindictive b
ASHANTI’S POV.The world is fading in and out of focus, shades of gray, as I follow the servant along the hallway with her words still ringing in my mind.“…you’ve been summoned by the Lycan King…”I am one piece of fear forged into being.News about the jewelry must have reached his ears and he has
ASHANTI’S POV.“Alpha Reagan asked you to stop working?” Tessa asks, pausing in her tracks and turns to look at me with her eyes wide open, nostrils flaring in shock. I calmly nod my head and exhale, stopping in my tracks as well. We are on our way to the cafeteria to have dinner.“Yeah.” I lean aga
ASHANTI'S POV.I can still feel Alina’s fingers wrapped around the fabric of my shirt, strangling me as I walk into the bedroom. With a sharp inhale and my eyes closed, I close the door behind me and the darkness behind my eyelids is a welcome relief until the memory of her face forces itself into m
.REAGAN'S POV.I didn't get any sleep last night for two reasons. The first being because Ashanti told me she served men along with the other girls at night and the second because I'm excited about her showing up for training today.The former reason has been bugging me all day and night, but there
“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
