Chapter 171
THE LYCAN KING’S SECOND CHANCE MATE
Chapter 0171
âDonât!â I warn when she tries to take off the robe. âDonât do that. Keep your clothes on.â She stops and looks at me, still smiling. âWho let you in here?â I ask coldly. She scoffs.
âAs if thereâs someone out there who has the balls to stop me from making my way up here.â
âWhat do you want?â
âI think you know.â She steps forward, but I step back to maintain the distance between us.
I donât want our bodies to touch in anyway. Sheâs like a poisonous plant that holds you down and chokes you to death if you let her touch you.
âIâm not interested. You can leave.â
âYes, you are. Youâre always interested inâ¦â. She gestures to her body. âThis. You canât resist it.â I donât say anything to her. She looks around, taking inventory of the bedroom before training her eyes on me again.
âThis room is different. Itâs not the room we always spend nights in together. Right?â I donât say anything. âIs it your real bedroom? Is this where you spend nights with Aahanti?â
âThatâs none of your business.â
âShe must be really special then.â
You have no idea how special she is to me.
I almost tell her that.
âAlina. You need to leave.â
âNo. I wonât.â
âI will call security on you.â I warn sternly, but she doesnât look the least frightened by my words.
âI heard about the meeting with the elders.â She takes one step closer. âI was told you didnât give any response when they asked to know if Ashanti was the chosen one. That can only mean one thing.â Another step forward. âYouâre not sure sheâs the one.â
âIâm not going to discuss that with you. Leave.â
âI donât know why you keep trying to deny it, Alpha Reagan. Why do keep turning a blind eye to your feelings for me?â I squint at her. She nods. âYes. A few days ago I seduced you in your office and you fell. You d me on you office table. You touched me again. If you didnât have feelings for me, you wouldnât have done that.â I look into her eyes and notice sheâs serious.
Her observation is so blatantly false that I start to laugh.
I laugh for a short while before looking back at her.
âYour quest for power and status has made you delusional.â
âThis isnât a quest for power and status. Itâs a quest for your love. For all of you!â
âIâm not in the mood to talk poetry with you, Alina. Please leave while Iâm still asking nicely.â
#15 BONUS
âAshanti will never make a good Lunaâ¦â She rants on. â..but I will. Iâm strong and brave and Iâve got pure Lycan blood flowing in my veins. Thereâs no one else in this pack whoâs fit to be your queen like I am. You need me!â
âI donât remember asking anyone to drop a resumé for the post of Luna in this pack. Stop talking gibberish and let me sleep.â She doesnât bulge. She stays on her spot, looking deep into my eyes like sheâs trying to bewitch me.
Even if Alina bewitches me, I will never bring myself to make her my Luna. Yes, sheâs a fierce warrior, but thatâs the least of qualities a Luna needs to possess.
Sheâs whining half of the time and letâs not talk about how entitled she is.
Sheâs the most self-centred person I have ever encountered in my life and Iâve seen how she treats people who are not in her class. Like they were trash.
Alina will only be my queen over my dead body.
âIf youâre thinking of choosing Ashanti, just know that the elders and the citizens will never approve of her. Sheâs an ordinary werewolf. The people would rather burn themselves to death than let a lowlife werewolfe rule over them!â
âThatâs it. Your time here is up.â I grab her arm in a firm grip and start pulling her towards the door.
She tries to resist, but fails woefully.
âAlpha Reagan, Iâm the best candidate you can think of. Iâm the only one who canâ¦â I donât let her finish her statement. I shove her out of my bedroom and shut the door behind her, making sure to lock it. She stands banging her fists against the door, screaming incoherent words at the top of her voice.
She has lost it. Completely.
I then proceed to mindlink my guards to get rid of her because if I listen to a single thing she says again, I might lose my brain cells.
Choose her as my Luna.
Never!
The only person whoâs fit to be and who is going to be my Luna is no one else but my mate,
Ashanti.
