THE LYCAN KING’S SECOND CHANCE MATE

ASHANTI'S POV.noveldrama

"This is all your fault. You're the one who asked me to hide. That was totally uncalled for!" Alpha Reagan accuses the moment I close the door and turn around. I heave out a silent sigh and start walking away from the door.

He's right.

It was a stupid idea to have made him hide.

I'm not a fifteen-year-old who's forbidden to bring guys to sleepover at her place and for Ryan, he's only eighteen and he's my little brother. If there's anyone between us who should be scared of the other, it should be him, being scared of me, not the other way round. I'm such an idiot.

"There's no need to play the blame game now, it won't change the fact that we've been busted.” I say in a defeated tone as I walk past him, but he doesn't let me. He holds my wrist in the gentlest manner and guides me back to stand before him. I look up to his handsome face and something comes to life in my chest when our eyes lock. My breath hitches in my throat when he smiles.

"What...What's..." I stutter like an idiot. "What's funny?"

"Don't you think I need compensation for the embarrassment you just put me through a while ago? Do you have any idea what that has done to my ego? It is severely bruised and needs proper tendering."

"Is that so?" I ask in the softest voice as I fixate my eyes on his face. "And what can I do to fix this bruised ego of yours?"

“Well...” His rasps, his voice deep and filled with dark undertones. The glow in his eyes is fading and getting replaced with a dark, lustful look. The man is getting horny, if he already isn't. "A second round of what we did last night would do."

I said it.

A soft giggle escapes my chest as I give him a punch on his chest. My fist bounces right off and he doesn't even flinch. It's like nothing hit him.

"What do you mean by a second round? You didn't let me sleep all night, Sir. If I were to give a rough estimate, six rounds would be the number I would settle on. I'm almost sore."

"Almost." He asks with raised brows. "Then I didn't do a good job. How about I..."

"No!" I cut him and started running towards the bathroom. "Not a chance, you naughty Alpha!"

***************************

"Wow. The level of awkwardness we are currently experiencing right now is totally uncalled for. It's not like I

caught you both having sex." Ryane

says after a long moment of awkward silence in the dining room and I choke on the water I just put in my mouth.

That statement caught me completely off guard.

Alpha Reagan calmly rubs my back as cough and I don't fail to notice the side he

is shooting in Ryan's way. Ryan, who just noticed he stepped way out of line,

drops his head and focuses on eating his meal.

"That's better." Says Alpha Reagan as he turns to me.

"Are you alright? He asks, concerned and I nod my head.

"Yes. Yes, I am. Thank you." He stops rubbing my back when I'm done coughing and we both go back to our meals.

Ryan is right though. I don't get why we are acting all quiet and awkward when we had some more sex when we were showering in the bathroom. We weren't shy. Not even the fact that we had been busted and embarrassed by Ryan made us stop.

The next fifteen minutes goes on in the same excruciating silence and awkwardness and Ryan, who has probably had enough of us, rises from his seat.

"The sexual tension brewing in this

dinning is not good for my health. I'm gonna go take a walk. You two enjoy your meal." Ryan finally gives up and leaves the dinning before we can say or do anything. Alpha Reagan and I exchange silent looks before looking back into our plates.
