    Chapter 0049


    ASHANTI’S POV.


    “Ashanti, why do you look like you’ve seen a ghost?”


    That’s what I was asked when I gawked at Alpha Reagan for a solid three minutes like he’d knocked


    all the air out of my chest.


    Actually he did and I was unstable throughout training today. Nelly beat me ten rounds on ten during


    our duel and I’m sure everyone realised something was wrong with me.


    I’m losing my mind.

    Why does Lena keep referring to Alpha Reagan as my mate? It makes no sense!


    I’m a walking corpse making its way into the bedroom I share with Tessa, but every organ in my


    bodyes to life when I walk in and spot Alina sitting on my bed, legs crossed elegantly and


    waiting for me and a few metres away from her a** lies the zer Alpha Reagan gave to mest


    night.


    This is the end.


    “Alina!” I call, breathlessly as I pause in my tracks.


    “The one and only.” She casts me a very wide smile. She looks neat and stunning as always and


    her bright red lipstick makes her look even more intimidating. I clear my throat and meet her gaze,


    telling myself I’ll not let her bully me easily.


    I’ve done nothing wrong.


    “What are you doing here?” I ask, trying to keep my voice steady. Her smile widens. Her gaze falls.


    She unwinds her crossed legs and rises to her feet, her gaze meeting mine again. The smile on her


    face has been reced with a serious look.


    It’s about to go down!


    “I think you know why I’m here.”


    “If it’s about what happened yesterday, you have nothing to be worried about. I didn’t sleep with the


    Alpha.”


    “You didn’t sleep with him, but you got his


    attention.” One step closer. I don’t bulge. I match her gaze, my mrs silently grinding against each


    other. “He saw you, he got interested, he took you outside. That means you captured his mind in


    some way. You’re not supposed to do that.”


    “I didn’t do any of that. I didn’t even try. I was avoiding him but he still…”


    “Exactly my point!” Her voice is harsh. Short heavy breaths from her nostrils are fanning my face


    and I can feel the heat of her re burning every inch of my face. “What is it about you that made


    him notice you even when you didn’t try to get his attention?” She’s looking at me like I’m a wonder.


    Like I’m something fascinating. I suck in a deep breath when she lifts her left hand towards my face


    and gently strokes my cheek with the back of her fingers. “Is it this pretty face of yours?” Her voice


    is dangerously calm. I swallow hard. “Is this what he can’t resist?”


    She looks at me, expecting an answer but I have none to give her. Her eyes go back to hovering all


    over my face. “Maybe I should put a scar on it so he’ll be repulsed every time he sees you!” Her


    hold hardens on my chin as she holds my head still so I’m looking deep into her eyes.


    “You’re getting close to him behind everyone’s backs. You’re doing something we don’t know.”


    “No, I’m not!” I reply between my teeth. My face is still in her hold.


    “Don’t f**k with me, Ashanti!”


    “I won’t, cuz I’m not attracted to women!” I spit out furiously. A surprised smile spreads across her


    face. Her hand drops from my face and the sound of her hysterical chuckle fills the entire room. Her


    eyes have not left my face and I’ve not taken a step from where I’m standing.


    “You not only have guts, but some sense of humour.” I don’t say anything. I keep looking at her like


    the lunatic she is. She closes the distance between us again. “Ashanti.” I jerk my face away from


    her approaching hand. She halts midair and furrows her brows at me.


    “I don’t like being touched.” I tell her firmly. She nods and drops her hand.


    “I don’t know how you’re going to do it, but make sure Alpha Reagan loses interest in you. If this


    whole drama esctes… If his interest in you gets. to the next level. If you try to get in my way of


    making that man mine, I will kill you and no one will do anything to me.


    I am Royalty. I get what I want at all costs.


    If I were you, I’d take this warning seriously.” She ends the statement with three gentle pats on my


    cheek before making her way out of the bedroom.


    I stand still on my spot, petrified and furious.


    I have no idea how Alpha Reagan took interest in me. I have no idea how I’m going to make him


    lose that interest either.


    And most importantly…


    I don’t want him to stop being interested in me.
