THE LYCAN KING’S SECOND CHANCE MATE

Chapter 0398

ASHANTI'S POV.

This is not how I imagined my first encounter with Selena would look like. I figured her pitiful state would make feel very sorry for her and give me more reasons to move on from Alpha Reagan, but I was wrong. After the heated altercation I just had with her in there and knowing her true colors, I don't think I can do that anymore.

It's true that Alpha Regan hurt me in the past. He was aweful to me, but it'd unfair of me to judge him based on his flaws alone. He also had his good moments. Moments when he made me blush and felt love. Moments that live rent free in my head. He's a good man and if there's one thing I'm sure about, it's the fact he loves me and he wants to be with me.

I want to be with him too.

Just like Kyle suspects, Selena is up to something and that needs to be figured out before it's too late. I'll leave Kyle to take care of that. I trust that he will find out what we need to know very soon. For now, I need to keep my mate far away from that Selena's deceitful claws.

"Ashabti... you've been scoffing and shaking your head since you came here. If you don't talk now I'm going to die of anxiety!" Tessa complains snap me out of my thoughts. I turn to her and chuckle lightly.

"I'm just really shocked."

"About what exactly?" The impatience drooling from her tone gets me even more amused. She's going to be so mad when I tell her what happened at the hospital.

"I'm just coming from the hospital."

“Hospital?” She asks, alarmed. “Are you sick?" She gives me a look of concern. I shake my head in denial.

"No, I'm not."

"So why were you at the hospital?"

"Alpha Reagan and I were about to have dinner when he got a call from one of the servants at Selena's apartment saying she cut her wrist and was rushed to the hospital. I asked to go with him and he took me there to see her."

"Tss." She tuts and scoffs with the a disinterested look on her face. "She's such a drama queen."

"She looks and sounds like one."

"Why did you even offer to go with him to see her? I don't want you getting involved in her drama." "Actually, I'm already involved."

"What do mean by that?" She asked, perplexed.

"I want to get involved."

“Ashanti." She sounds alarmed. I let out a deep sigh and turn my entire body in her direction on the couch we are both sitting on. "You are getting me worried. Why are you getting yourself involved with Selena's drama.”

“Because she's a bitch!" I calmly decipher and suck in a deep breath. Tessa's brows jump to her hairline and the confused look on her face deepens. "We had a little altercation in her ward when Alpha Reagan left to talk with the doctor." She gasps in shock, her eyes widening as though she just saw a ghost.

"No, you didn't!"

"Yes we did!"

"What did you girls fight about? I mean who started it. Please tell me it wasn't you!"

"It's true that I don't like her very much, but you know I'm not petty. I was standing peacefully in the room then she starts throwing punches, I had to fight back."

"What exactly did she say?"

"Something about her being back to take her place in Alpha Reagan's life and that I should leave him alone because my time with him is over."

"That bitch!"

"I said the same thing when she threw those words at me. She's the worst!"

"The nerve! Such an entitled brat! If there's anyone whose time has passed with Alpha Reagan, it's her not you! Who the hell does she think she is? Tessa sounds infuriated and that stirs up the anger I've been trying to suppress in my chest.

"She still has hopes of getting back together with Alpha Reagan. She's so confident that he'll accept her again."

"She's not even ready for the dissapointment that's warming up at the corner for her. It's going to hit her hard!"

"Don't be so confident. Alpha Reagan might actually choose her, you know." I mutter in a low voice. Her face darkens with a frown as she shakes her head so hard, I fear it'll dislocate from her neck.

"That will only happen when hell freezes over."

"How are you so sure."

“Ashanti..." She calls in a low, serious tone as she takes my hands in hers. "That man loves you." My heart skips a bit. Warmth pools in my stomach as focus my gaze on her face that has got a soft, serious expression plastered on it.

Does he?This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

I ask myself and sink my teeth into my lower lips to hide my smile.

"And I can bet my life that right now, he wants to be with no other woman, but you!" She continues. An observable blush spread from my neck up yo my cheeks and then my entire face.

I like what I'm hearing.

"So stop talking nonsense."

My lips curve into a smile.

"Right."

No matter what Selena says, Alpha Reagan is still my mate. We have a mate-bond that has not be broken yet and I want to protect that mate bond. While Kyle works on exposing back, I will stay focused on making sure her réłationship with my mate doesn't get an inch beyond what it is now.

her true intentions for com

He's mine!

The sound of hasty footsteps jabs me out of my thoughts and my head neck swings in the direction of the staircase where I see Delta Kyle rushing down the staircase, looking absolutely terrified like something terrible has gone wrong.

“Babe." Tessa calls shooting up from the couch and I do the same. "Why do you look so alarmed? Did something happened?"

"Someone has spread news about

et

Selena's return. The subjects know she's here. The entire pack is on fire right now have to the meet the others so we can decide on how to curb the situation." He's already rushing out of the door by the times he's finishing the last statement. The next thing we hear is the sound of the door closing behind him, then silence.

Tessa and I exchange confused looks.

My heart starts hammering in my chest when Kyle's words replay in my mind.

That's not a good thing.

That's not a good thing at all!

The pack will be turned up-side-down now that the subjects know that Alpha Reagan has to chose one between his two mates.

"I can bet my life that Selena has something to do with this.” Tessa accused after several moments of total silence in the living room.

I firmly agree with her.

Selena leaked the news of her return.
