ASHANTI'S POV.My eyes snap open and I squint up at the early morning light peering through the small window hanging above on the other end of the wall. It appears I spent the night on the floor where it smells like ice and metal and dirt. My flesh is numb from all the cold that has sipped into my b
ASHANTI'S POV.The moment the guard is out of sight, my eyes travel back to the tray sitting on the floor below. My stomach rumbles at the side of the dishes. I am famished, but there's no way I'm putting any of that into my mouth. My mind travels to Alpha Reagan and I curse him again for not markin
ASHANTI’S POV.Everyone keeps talking about their plans and their plans to make news plans but I don't see anything happening. I'm still locked up in this God forsaken cell and everyone out there still thinks I'm a cold blooded murderer.“Tess.” I call, shaking my head. “I don't know how to feel or
ASHANTI'S POV.Shortly after Tessa leaves, the heavy footsteps return, but this time around it seems it's not just a pair of feet approaching, but at least two or three. Still seated on my butt, I stare up hopefully at the door, wishing in my heart for it to be Alpha Reagan this time around, but it
ASHANTI’S POVI know for a fact that it's not true. Alpha Reagan is not taking care of Alina, but I cannot stop my chest from hurting so much after hearing that statement. Just the thought of him siding with Alina makes me want to faint.“How about we feed her the food she refused to eat?” Another g
TESSA'S POV.Ashanti didn't mean it.She couldn't possibly mean those words she said to me this morning when I went to see her. She has been locked up for almost twenty-four hours now and I'm sure she's frustrated by the whole experience, that's why she said all those things back there.She couldn't
TESSA’S POV“What the hell are you talking about?” That’s Wendy. I cock my head to the side, purse my lips and give her the “are-you-fucking-kidding-me” look“Wendy, are you really asking me that question right now? A few months ago you gave a sealed box to Ashanti and claimed Ma’am Lisa has Instruc
REAGAN'S POV.“Thank you very much for the information Doctor Henry,” I tell the doctor over the phone and hang up. I calmly drop the phone on the table before me and lean against the backrest of the chair I'm seated on, eyes closed and my fingers massaging my forehead as I sigh heavily.Alina.Alin
“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
