THE LYCAN KING’S SECOND CHANCE MATE

Chapter 0346

"I wasn't. You are my mate. You're special to me and there's no way I won't give you special treatment while you're here." Her argues and I want argue some more, but I decide against it.

I'm never going to win against him. I never do.

"Thank you." I whisper, looking up at him.

"Why are you thinking me?"

"For the house. It's uh... it's good. Ryan and I love it. Thank you.'

"You don't have to thank me, Ashanti. It's my responsibility to make sure you are comfortable any where you are. To make sure you are doing okay and I do not intend to slack off. Not anymore." Those words charge my brain like electric current, sending shivers down my spine that makes goosebumps appears all over my body. The tension in my chest rises and the intensity with which hes staring at me makes me melt under his gaze like I was butter.

My eyes leave his and drop down to his lips.

Those lips.

Oh those lips... I've kissed them over a hundred times but I've never gotten enough of them. Naughty thoughts file into my brain and my entire body grows hot. Right now, I feel the same way I felt two years ago when he first saved me from the lounge. I want him to kiss me. I want him to touch me like he used to do when we were still together. I want him to...

Oh fuck it!

Come back to earth, Ashanti!

I tear my gaze from his and clear my throat.

"What's the important thing you want us to discuss?" I ask, daring to meet his gaze again and all the sparkles in his eyes fade. Five seconds later, melancholy is the only emotion I see swimming in his deep brown eyes. Tension makes my chest tighten.

I don't feel good about this.

“Ashanti.......” He calls. He voice has lost its charm and fervor. He sounds so depressed. “In the past, I hid things from you which let to you finding out about them from other sources and that was very bad. I don't want to do that anymore."

"O...Kay."

"You remember I used to talk about my first mate, Selena, right?"

"Yes."

"I said I lost her in an ambush and that left me depressed for many years."

"I'm familiar with that story."

“Well..... it happens that Selena isn't dead. She's back."

My heart sinks into my stomach and all the hair on my head stand erect. My nerve endings catch fire.

What?

"Yes. I... the call I got during our conversation this afternoon had to do with it. She's back."

He doesn't sound happy at all and neither am I.

His first mate is back. What does this mean? Where does that leave me standing?

"So... why are you telling me?" I ask, feigning a nonchalant tone. My heart has been ripped apart by that revelation, but I have to stay strong. I can't let my feelings weigh me down.

"Huh?" His brows are raised in confusion.

"It's not like we're together anymore.

It's over between us. And if you former mate is back, I take it as a

sign that we are not meant to be together. You can get back together with her."

"No." He denies firmly. My chest tightens with pain. "No! I don't want to."

"Why not?"

"Because... because... because..."

"Because?"

"Ashanti please..."

"There's no need to beg me, Alpha Reagan. The Moon goddess has clearly seen that she made a huge mistake by pairing us together that's why she has brought back your first mate. You should forget about me, accept Selena and move on with your life. Like I have."

"Asha..."

"Please "I cut him off with a handshow. "Ve had a very long night. I'd love to go in and have some rest. Please." I start some rest.

unbuckling my seat belt with my fingers trembling like an active voleano.

His first mate is back.

How is this possible?

Why is this possible?

“Ashanti. We're not done talking about this. I'll come see you again.”

I don't reply him. I simply open the door and step out. My legs nearly fail to keep me upright.

I'm going to die tonight.Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
