ASHANTI'S POV.The population is more than I expected, the clamoring crowd makes my knees buckle and I struggle to stay on my feet as I walk to the circle drawn at the center of the field. There are voices calling out my name, cheering for me and others doing the same for my opponent. As I walk on,
She flew.She literally flew in the air. I had no idea I could do that.There's an uproar of cheers from the crowd and I can hear more people chanting my name and shouting out for me to get her.I take a step forward, but she shouts out the safe word, Red, and the whistle is blown.I just won the fi
REAGAN'S POV. Okay. I have one question to ask amidst all this chaos. WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON? One minute Ashanti was being led into the stadium by my Beta and the next she was being dragged away like she was some criminal. If Kyle had not stopped me, I would have jumped right into the stadium
ASHANTI'S POV.I'm sitting on my butt on the cold cell floor, leaning against the wall with my knees pulled up to my chest. I have been crying since I got thrown in here. My heart hurts, my head feels like someone is blowing a war horn in it. My face is completely drenched with tears. I raise my hea
“What about your duel opponents? Do you know anything about their food poisoning?” There's a serious look on his face as he poses that question. I'm too weak to speak. My head drops and I simply shake it with tears falling from my eyes to the floor.What's all this?“I don't.” I croak and sniffle te
ACHILLES' POV.Her completely dishevelled hair. Her red as a tomato and tear-drenched face. Her watery eyes and trembling lips. The overall hopeless look on her face. She thought no one was going to fight for her. Not even me. That reality makes my chest constrict with pain.What she doesn't know i
“I uh… we…” My anger tips over and I slam my palms against the table, causing a loud bang that echoes throughout the empty room and makes the girls jump in their seats out of fright“Stop stuttering and answer me! I want your voice and sentences to be as clear and concise as the ones you made when
ACHILLES' POV.Rhea.The sound of that name in the red girl's voice keeps ricocheting through my mind like a bullet. Irritation burns through me each time the image of her face flashes in my mind.She's Ashanti's sister. The one who has been causing troubles for her since the day they both set foot
“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
