When we step out of the hall into the premises where cars are lined up, cold air whips my face mercilessly and I take in a sharp inhale, but what makes chills run down my spine is not the cold out here, it's the sight of Alpha Reagan.
Holy goddess he's standing by my car.
How the hell did he know that was the car I cin? "There you go." Ryan whispers to me. "The long awaited moment." "Shut up!" I say between my teeth. I turn to the guards. "Wait here." They all nod and I look at Ryan who has a stubborn look on his face. "That applies to you too." "Yeah. Whatever." "Tss." I scoff with an eyeroll. I look back at the man staring straight atand release a shaky breath.
My organs are doing a Yippy jump in my body right now. Warmth pools in my belly and my heart starts doing backflips in my chest as I take slow, confident strides over to him.
He waited.
He wants to to talk me.
He did not ignore me.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtGoddess! I shouldn't be excited about this.
"Ashanti." That voice.
That smooth baritone voice hums my nin the most enticing way. He says the nlike it excites him, pleasures him, amuses him. I want to smile.
Sweet goddess I want to smile so badly right now, but I keep the serious look on my face.
"Alpha Reagan." My voice is a soft whisper.
"I am at a lose for words, Ashanti." "Start anywhere." "You look gorgeous." He states and my lips betray me. They curve into a wide smile that stretches from one molar to the other. A blush that starts from my neck spreads up to my face and it's just a matter of seconds before my face turns tomato red.
My mate just toldI'm gorgeous.
"Thank you. And you too. You don't bad yourself." "Your mother deceived me." My heart lurches.
"I went to her house to look for you. My gut kept tellingyou were there but she toldyou weren't and I was foolish enough to believe her." "She lied because I asked her to. It's not her fault." "Mmmm." He mumbles, nodding his head.
He doesn't sound happy, but he doesn't look angry. The look he has on is neutral, but there's this glow in his eyes that sets my mind and my heart at ease. Even the look in his eyes is unreadable. I have no idea what's running through his mind or what he's feeling right now, but I'm very much aware of what I'm feeling right now. Pure, adulterated excitement.
"It's been..." He suddenly stops on his words and closes his eyes.
It seems someone just mind linked him.
A few moments fly by before he finally opens his eyes again.
"I am happy to see you walk around with guards. At least I know you are safe." My brows crease in confusion.
What the hell is he talking about? "Kyle will go with you and your men." He continues.
Further confusion for me.

"You will not be staying in the apartment prepared for contestants. You will reside in the house I've prepared for you. Kyle will take you there." "What... what the hell are you talking about?" I am confused.
"There's an emergency I have to attend to. This conversation isn't over. I'll see you soon. (For now, take care." And with that, he turns on his heels and walks away, leavingabsolutely confused and dumbfounded. No regular apartment for me.
He has prepared a house forto live in.
Our conversation isn't over.
Every single word and action of his depicts dominance. It runs in bis blood. He was born to change the dynamics of everything around him. I was starting to forget the kind of person he is, but this has served as a wake up call.
I do look forward to what lies ahead forin this pack.
