ASHANTI’S POV.

“He definitely likes you, Ashanti. Nothing can convince me otherwise. That man is crazy about you.”

That’s what Tessa has to say after I gave her a run down of what happened at Alpha Reagan’s bedroom last night. I’m biting my lower lip and my eyes are fleeting from one end of the room to another, unable to accept what she just said.

It is impossible.

Alpha Reagan does not like me.

“No, he isn’t.” I flatly deny it. She growls and gives me a stern look, with raised brows. “He must have done the same to other girls.”

“Do you want us to take a survey and find out? How much do you have to lose?”

“You want me to go around asking girls if Alpha Reagan was romantic to them on the night they had sex? That would be selling myself out.”

“I’m glad you know that. Look, I have never spent a night with him, but I’m positive he has never done this to other girls. Let me tell you something Ashanti, Alpha Reagan, has never taken a girl into his personal bedroom. Not to talk of letting her put on his clothes and pick out his outfit.

Like damn he didn’t have sex with you because he respects you very much. What other signs do you want to see before you understand that this man likes you?” I am shaking my head as she talks.

She can’t be right.

“No. He can’t possibly like me, Tess.”

“Why not?”

“Because I’m an ordinary werewolf. I’m not as sophisticated as the Lycan girls in this pack. He’s up there and I’m way down there. Why would he choose to have feelings for a nobody like me?”

“The heart knows what it wants, Ashanti. Love is blind. By the way you need to stop degrading yourself so much. Yes, you are an ordinary werewolf, but that doesn’t mean you are not capable of getting the attention of a good man. And you are way more sophisticated than you think. Have you seen you?

And about being down there and him being up there, that’s all in your mind. You are a very attractive woman. You are strong and ambitious and every man who has eyes will be attracted to you. So chill and enjoy.” As soft chuckle tumbles from my lips as I listen to her describe me with words I would never dare to describe myself with.

How come she’s more confident in me than I am? How come she sees all these things, but I don’t?

“When you say it like that, it sounds too cheesy.” “Which is not a bad thing.”

“It’s nothing of that sort.”

“Lord, you are such a nutcase!” She cries, laying down on her bed. Just then, the room door is

pushed open and a girl dressed in servan uniform walks in.

She didn’t even have the decency to knock. This is one of the reasons why I hate living in this Ha r e m. There’s no such thing as privacy here.

“Ashanti.” She calls rudely and I sit upright on my bed.

“Yes.”

“Come with me.” She turns on her heels and starts heading towards the back.

“Where to?”

“Don’t ask questions and follow me already. One of the elderly servant’s wants to see you.”

“Oh…” I exclaim quietly, stepping down from the bed.

What could have gone wrong this time.

Yes. Gone wrong, because almost every time I’ve been summoned by an elderly servant, it’s been because of one thing I did wrong or another. So now, what have I done wrong?

“I’ll be right back.” I tell Tessa as I follow the girl outside. She leads the way out of the bedroom quarters to the staff quarters where the servants reside and soon, we are in an office. I breathe out a sigh of relief when I see that it’s not Lisa who sent for me.
