ASHANTI’S POV.
“Rhea!” I shout at the top of my voice as I barge into the bedroom, mming the door shut behind
me. My eyes are shing bright. Rigid, raw with anger and indignation. Anger is coursing through
me with vigor I have never felt before. I can hardly keep my hands from shaking.
Rhea, who’s lying on her bed, steps down from it and rises to her feet.
She looks confused.
“What are you doing here?” She asks.
“Why did you lie?” My voice and lips are tight as I ask her that question. Her brows crease in
confusion for a split second before they dte and her face lights up with a smile.
“Oh…yeah… that.” She chuckles. “The news must have gotten to you.”
“You mean your lies?” I ask furiously. “You were the one who seduced and had sex with my
boyfriend several times behind my back, not me!”
“Oh yeah? How about you go out there and tell them. See if they’ll believe you.” She smirks, folding
her arms over breasts and taking a killer pose. Anger explodes in my brain like a dynamite and my
brain shes before my eyes a million things I can do to hurt her right now.

Pull her hair till I rip half her strands out of her scalp.
Ram her face into a nearby wall.
Punch it till she’s bleeding and can’t feel anything.
Beat her up to a pulp.
My clenched fists are shaking by myside as I stare at her angrily, but I implore myself and my mind
to not act on those thoughts. The consequences I’ll face will be way more severe than what she has
done and hurting her will only make the girls believe her more.
They’ll say I beat her up because I was upset that she spilled my nasty secret.
“Your entire body is shaking with rage. What do you want to do? Beat me up?” She snorts. “Lay a
finger on me and the rest of the girls will believe my story even more. They’ll drag you in the mud till
every inch of your body is covered in filth. It’ll suit you though.”
I go limp. My jaw is unhinged. My arms ck at my sides, eyes are wide with worry and a sliver of
defeat.
There’s really nothing I can do right now.
Hurting Rhea will only make matters worse for me and I cannot convince the girls that she’s lying.
“What do you want from me, Rhea?” My voice is almost inaudible.
“I thought you’d never ask.” She takes a few steps. closer to me. The anger in my heart has turned
into pity.
Pity for myself.
She always wins.
She’s always gets what she wants.
“What I want is for you to know your ce, Ashanti. For you to ept the fact that you are a
nobody!” She fires at me and I calmly shake my head. Her words bounce off my skin and fall to the
ground and I put on my armour of confidence.
I won’t let her words get under my skin. She can use other people to torture me, but I’ll never let her
do it herself.
“That’s not true. If there’s anyone between the two of us who’s a nobody, person is you, not me.”
Her eyes widen in shock. “Yes.” I smile. “And that’s because your mother is not our father’s true
mate, mine is! Your mother seduced our father. She turned him against my mother and I. Your
mother is a homewrecker!”
“My mother is a strong woman who knows what she wants and goes for it. She is a goal getter
unlike ( your mother who’s a p**y. She can’t fight to keep what’s hers and you’re just like her!
Ashanti I won’t stop until I send you under! Until I make you less than nothing, just like my mum did
yours. You’ll be nothing but trash and people will trample all over you and you’ll have no voice to
object!”
“It all starts with your mother being the horrible, manipting b**h she is! Thank you very much for
making your intensions clearly known to me. I’ll make sure you fail, or if I’m going down, I’m
dragging you along with me, so watch your back Rhea. You’re not the only one who can pull stunts
in this H**m.”
“I’d love to see you try.”
“Oh, you will. I’d do anything to see the look on your face when I finally send you under. So, if I were
you, I’d watch my back from now on.” I sh her a tight smirk before barging out of the
bedroom, feeling a lot better than I did when I walked in.
She’s was taken aback by my sudden outburst. I saw it in her eyes. She had expected me to break
down the moment she threw those degrading words at me, but I fought right back and that’s what I’ll
do from now on.
I’ll fight back as much as I have to.
I might not have a team of mean girls on my side. like she does, but I have the Moon goddess…
and Tessa. That’s all I need.
I’m met with judging eyes and more murmuring as I run out of the building. I need to get some fresh
air. To clear my head of the horrible words Rhea threw at me. I run over to the green field, breathing
hard and I only stop when my chest can’t take it anymore. There’s a fire ball burning every inch of
my chest and my throat is as dry as a dessert.
I’m thirsty and breathless and relieved and angry at the same time.
“Is someone chasing you?” A deep voice speaks from behind, startling me to the point where I
scream and I trip as I try to take step forward, but I don’t reach the ground because a pair of strong,
capable arms warps around my waist from behind, stoping me from falling. I get of whiff of the
man’s scent and my mind immediately knows who it is.
That smell.
I can never miss it!
“Are you alright?”
I turn around at the speed of light and jump away from his electrifying touch. He’s looking at me with
so much concern in his eyes. I clear my throat and nod my head.
“Yes, I am, Alpha.”
“I don’t think you are. Yourshes are wet. Have you been crying?” I bring my hands to my face and
touch my cheeks, that’s when I feel the wetness.
Have I been crying?
Oh G o d! Did I shed tears in front of Rhea?
What is wrong with me?
“I uh… I…. No. I… I haven’t been crying.”
“Don’t lie to me Ashanti. Tell me why you’ve been crying.”
“It’s nothing important.”
“You don’t strike me as the type of girl who would cry over unimportant things. Tell me.”
Awwn… Thank you for thepliment.
“It’s nothing I can’t handle. I appreciate your concern, but it’s nothing, really. If you don’t mind, I’d
love to go in and have a shower. I reek of
perspiration. Please.” I beg. He tortures me with his silence and intense look.
One, two, three, ten moments fly by and I’m still melting under his intense gaze.
“You are dismissed.” He finally speaks.
“Thank you, My Lord.” I step away from him and run for my dear life.
Today is officially “Torture Ashanti Day”!
