ASHANTI'S POV.“It's duel time.” Delta Kyle announces and my blood pressure shoots up. Unintentionally, my eyes look in Alina's direction and I see her smiling wickedly at me. My knees buckle when she raises her hand in the air, getting her brother's attention. “Yes, Alina.”“I would love to have a
Ouch!Ouch!!!Does he have a problem with his sister? Why would he soil her face in public like this? The entire arena is buried in deep silence. Even the wind is afraid to make a sound. Everyone is looking at each other, unsure of what to do or say next and thankfully, Alina breaks the unbearable
ASHANTI'S POV.“Rhea!” I shout at the top of my voice as I barge into the bedroom, slamming the door shut behind me. My eyes are flashing bright. Rigid, raw with anger and indignation. Anger is coursing through me with vigor I have never felt before. I can hardly keep my hands from shaking.Rhea, wh
CHAPTER FORTY-EIGHT.ASHANTI'S POV.“And… sleeping beauty finally awakes.” A soft giggle escapes my throat as Tessa's voice fills my ears. I lazily sit upright and lean against the headboard, stretching my arms and yawning lazily.What a nap I've had.“Did I sleep for too long?” I slur with a raspy
“As if they respect me now.” I sigh and shake my head. “It's just another story that will die down soon.”“And who knows what next she'll say about you? It could be worse.” I smile and don't say anything.There's no need fighting Rhea or trying to prove my innocence to the girls who clearly dislike
ASHANTI'S POV.“I can't have you…”That phrase now lives rent free in my head. I'm trying to decode its meaning. I'm trying to understand what made Delta Kyle say that, but nothing makes sense.I would ask Tessa, but knowing how her mind works, she'll only try to romanticise the phrase, so I'd rathe
“You better get on your knees before the Beta shows up.” Lisa threatens and I fall to my knees. My entire body is shaking like I've touched a life wire. I have never been so scared in my life.Sex toys?Holy goddess. Beta Ronald is going to chew me raw.“Ma’am Lisa you have to believe me when I say
ASHANTI'S POV.I'm standing before the Alpha and Beta with my head bowed down. I still can't wrap my head around the fact that Alpha Reagan just said I didn't do what I'm being accused of. I've looked back at him several times, thinking he'll snap any moment and tell me to get back on my knees, but
“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
