Prince Reagan

Chapter 36

Shattered

Ellie

“Where the hell were you last night?!” I yell

the question at the sleepy man beside me as I

glower down at him. At first, when I had woken

up to his scent and warmth, I had felt happy and content since he was here with me. But then irritation began to seep in at not knowing where

he had been last night.

I had waited all night like some good wife

for her husband, worrying where he was and berating myself for being the reason he left in the first place. And he could have been with…!

had fallen asleep, and now I wake up to see him

cuddling up to me like everything was alright. I

still haven’t forgotten how he blatantly rejected me yesterday, which was embarrassing, by the

way.

“Ellie?” His voice sounds husky and sleepy as he slowly stands up, rubbing the sleep out of

his eyes with his hands. His blond hair a tousled

mess, and that only seems to make him sexier with his full chest on display as he has no shirt

I compose myself quickly so I won’t begin to drool over him. I’m sitting with my arms

crossed over my chest, my face pulled in a

scowl, my eyes still blazing with anger.

Even though he looks cute in his vulnerable

state, I still am not going easy on him. There are bags under his eyes with his face in a dull

expression that lets me know he hasn’t gotten

much sleep. Meaning he was awake most of the

night and probably only joined me a few hours ago. I wonder why? What had kept him up all

night?

“What time is it?” He groans, running his

hands through his hair.

“I don’t know. Have you asked Janet?”

Childish, I know. But I’ve been thinking about

nothing but her all night. And how she’s likely the reason why my mate rejected me last night.

Reagan halts then for a second before his

eyes snap to mine as if he’s just seeing me for the first time and noticing my change of mood.

He sighs, reaching for me, “Little wolf...” But I pull back out of his reach, eyeing him cautiously. He seems a bit hurt at my action but

shakes his head.

“What’s wrong?” He finally asks.

“What time did you get back?” I scrunch

my eyebrows in question at him. He blinks, studying me in confusion.

He runs his hands down his face in

exhaustion, “Around five, I think.” He answers. No wonder he looks so tired.

I swallow past the lump in my throat as!

get ready to ask the next question. “Were you

with her?”

He seems confused at my question, arching

an eyebrow at me.” With who?”

“You know who.” I retort with my eyes narrowed at him. He blinks once more at me

before realization dawns on me.

“No, Ellie. Never.” He quickly answers with

a shake of his head. I believe him, not because of

the sincere look in his eyes, but because I would
