Chapter 0061 REAGAN’S POV. Earlier today, she was crying at the field after she returned from training, but she wouldn’t tell me what the problem was when I asked. A few hours. later, I walk into Ronald’s office and meet her crying on her knees while being accused of a crime I am very much aware she did not commit.
These two incidents have been an eye opener for me. Ashanti is a very strong girl, she will not cry Over something trivial. A lot more is going on with her in that H**m and my speculation is that she’s being bullied by the other H**m girls. Sighing heavily, I lean against the backrest of the sofa and close my eyes. “King. Are you there?” I call my wolf. Right now, he’s the only one I can discuss this issue with. If I dare take it to anyone else, in less than no time, rumor will spread that I’m interested in Ashanti and that’s not something I want right now. “I’m here. And what’s this thing I hear about our mate being bullied.” “Ashanti. Call her Ashanti.” “Do you have a problem with me referring to her as our mate?” He asks strenly. I groan in frustration. “King, when you throw the fact Ashanti is our mate to my face like this, it makes it hard for me to hold myself back. I might do something I’ll regret.”
“And by doing something you’ll regret, do you mean claiming her as yours? Letting everyone know the true Luna of this pack? How is that a regrettable thing to do?” “For the goddess’ sake, King, just stop with this already. I don’t summon you to come and chatise me for not having claimed our mate yet.” I huff out a deep breath. King stays calm, but I can feel his irritation towards me. I know exactly what he wants. It is what I want as well, but we can’t have it. “Look King…”
“Is it because she’s an ordinary werewolf. Is that why you don’t want to accept her?” He quarrels me yet again. “You very well know that’s not the reason why I’m doing this. King, I swear on my life I have my reason for letting things stay as they are. And trust me, it is a very good reason.” “And why can’t you share that reason with me?” I don’t answer his question. I snap my eyes open and stare blankly at the white wall ahead of me. There’s a reason. And that reason has got to do with fear. I’m scared. “Anyway. It’s obvious you’re not going to tell me what the reason is. What is it you want us to discuss?” I close my eyes again and grind my teeth in irritation when thoughts of Ashanti being bullied return fresh in my mind. Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.
“Ashanti is being bullied by the other girls.” “You need to do something.” “I’m well aware of that. But now, no matter how much I think, I can’t seem to come up with a way to stop them without raising their suspicions about how I feel about Ashanti or even worse, about our mate status.” “Reagan, you seem to be forgetting something.” “What’s that?” “The fact that no one can know you and Ashanti are mates unless one of you tells them. Now, we’re not even sure if Ashanti knows she’s your mate, because if she did, she would have brought it up to you already, which means you’re the only one who knows right now. You’ve got all the power here.” “So what are you suggesting?” “That you get close to her. You can be interested in her without her necessarily being your mate. Everyone is aware of this. So, if you’re scared that showing interest in Ashanti will raise people’s suspicion about your mate status, you have nothing to be worried about because it won’t.” I let out a long, heavy sigh and adjust myself on the sofa. This conversation is making tense and uncomfortable and a bit scared.
“If I get close to Ashanti, I don’t trust myself to not Chapter 0061 tell her about our mate status. She’s too addictive. I won’t be able to resist her. Trust me King, if people know Ashanti and I are mates, there will be trouble.” “I’m not going to ask what kind of trouble despite my burning desire to know. Instead I’m going to ask this.” A moment of silence. “Are you going to turn a blind eye to this issue? Are you going to let those girls keep bullying your mate? Our mate? Their future Luna?” Those questions cut deep into my skin. I wince in pain. When King realises that I have no intention of answering any of the questions, he rides on. “Our mate needs us, Reagan. We can’t ignore her. Even the Moon goddess will be upset with us. And I don’t know about you, but I really do not want to feel her wrath.” “And how will getting close to Ashanti help?” “How did Alina become so powerful and influencial in that H a r e m?” King. The King of replying a question with a question. A heavy sigh of exasperation escapes my throat as I rise from the sofa. A myriad of thoughts bombard my mind as I head over to the wall to ceiling glass window and stare out at the city lights outside that look like stars in a dark sky.
I control this pack and every other werewolf pack with so much ease, but handling a girl has got me stuck in a tight spot. I don’t even know where to go from here. “King.” I call. “Yes, Reagan.” “Are you sure this is a good idea?” “You know I’ll never mislead you.” I let out another sigh and turn away from the window.
I have no idea how this is going to turn out, but I’m going to give it a try. At the table, I pick my phone and dial a number. The person I’m calling picks on the third ring. “Alpha Reagan.” A voice comes through. “Report to my office immediately.” I hang up and tighten my grip on the phone. Ashanti. I hope you are ready for me.
