Chapter 113

ASHANTI’S POV.

“Ashanti!” An excited voice sounds my name, waking me up from my slumber. I snap my head in the direction of the call and all the sleep in my eyes dry off when I see Tessa skipping over to meet me on the bed. Her eyes are as bright as a rainbow in a blue sky. The news of us moving here ust still sounds untrue to her.

“Tess.” I call in excitement as I sit upright. Soon, she’s on the bed, by my side with a bright smile plastered on her face.

“Is… is it true?”

“What are you talking about?” I try to feign innocence.

“Don’t fuck with me Ashanti. Is it true we’ll be living here from now on. Are we now residents of the Premium quarters?” She asks in excitement.

“Tessa, you’re in here. Our things are here as well. What does that mean?”

“It means we are now residents of the Premium Quarters!” She squeals with excitement and I burst into laughter.

I understand her excitement.

Living here is a big deal. More respect, more protection, more privacy, more class!

It’s amazing. I’m just as excited as she is.

“Wow! When I say Alpha Reagan likes you you keep denying it, but see…” She points around the room. “Here’s proof that this man is head over heels for you! The Premium Residence? Goodness!”

“It’s nothing! He’s just trying to make sure I’m safe because of what happened to Hayley.” “Exactly!

He cares! And that alone Ashanti, is enough to make you understand the fact that he likes yo not everyday the Lycan King shows care and concern for some ordinary Harem girl. You are special to him!” She rants on and I simply shake my head.

If there was a tiny bit of possibility for me to totally ignore the idea of asking Tessa to join me here, this would be the reason.

She over analyses things and puts thoughts in my head. Thoughts that are going to be the end of me if I overthink them.

“Tess. It’s nothing of that sort. I can assure you that.” She shrugs her shoulders.

“Keep denying it. Just make sure to shamefully let me know when you find out I’ve been right all along.” She gives me two gentle pats on my thigh and rises from the bed. “I’m gonna go check out the closet and the bathroom.” She dashes into the bathroom first and I simply shake my head at her excited state.

It’s going to be so fun living here with her.

The next hour goes by with us organizing our clothes in the large closet space. It’s so big, our things don’t even take up to half the space.

Soon, we are all called to gather at the same hall Alpha Reagan addressed us the first day we got here where Hayley’s death was formally announced to us. The culprit is yet to be found while her parents have come to take her remains home. It’s a very sad atmosphere in the hall, but some girls still have the guts to trash–talk Hayley.

One thing I also notice is the fact that the Harem girls are not giving me spiteful looks and throwing insults like they always do. Most of them are looking at me like I’m a wonder and I’m very sure it is because I’ve been transfered to the Premium Residence. I have a feeling things are going to change a lot for me around here.

After the announcement, since it’s evening, we all head to the cafeteria to have dinner.

“Now I’m fully convinced that Hayley is innocent. Whoever poisoned her did so to keep her silent on the issue forever.” Tessa tells me as we walk into the caff.

“I told you, didn’t I? She was bullied into giving me that orange juice. I feel terrible for what has happened to her. She died because of…”

“Ashanti.” A voice sounds my name from behind. Both Tessa and I turn to look and my jaw drops when I see a group of Harem girls rising from the table they just secured for themselves. The next thing they say almost throws me off balance.

“Ashanti, Tessa, you both can take our table.” Says one of the girls, smiling from molar to molar.

The others smile and nod at her statement. Tessa and I exchange confused looks.

What’s going on here?

I blink one, two, three, ten times to make sure I’m not seeing things, but after stationing my eyes on the smiling girls again, I confirm that I’m not delusional.
