ASHANTI'S POV.

"What the hell are you doing here?" I ask in annoyance the moment I walk into the living room and see Conrad sitting on one of the Sofas.

I have been miserable and heartbroken, but the Conrad I'm looking at right now doesn't look the least affected by everything that just happened.

I roll my eyes when he rises from the Sofa and inches closer to me. He even has the nerve to smile at me.

"Don't bother, I'm not here to beg you to take me back."

"Not that I wanted you to do that."

"Good, because this is all your fault in the first place."

"What?" I asked harshly.

"Yeah" He answers with creased brows. "You know what, Ashanti? You were never ready for us to get intimate. Always talking about waiting for the right time. I got tired of waiting. Two years and all I ever got from you was a kiss. It became boring. I needed more so I went to someone who was ready to give it to me." Pain stabs my heart like a thousand daggers as I listen to him talk.

He slept with my sister because I wouldn't let him do that with me.

"But you said you were fine with us not having sex."

"I only said that to please you. Which man would like to be in a relationship with a girl without getting intimate?"

"There are many men out there who..."

"Then go find them."

"Why are you even saying this to me now, Conrad?" I literally can't look at his face for another second.

"I'm saying this because this is all on you. If you weren't such an annoying self preserving person, we'd still be together. So you deal with it."

I slap him.

I slap him hard as tears come flying down my cheeks.

"How dare you!"

"How dare I?" He chuckles like he's amused about something. "You ruined our relationship first, and you ruined my reputation in front of the Alpha and elders. You even put our pack in danger only because you can't take the fact that you are dumped." He shakes his head and walks past me, making sure to bump into my shoulder, pushing me aside. Three steps later, he turns back to face me.

"And like Rhea rightly said, there are a lot of things she can offer me, which you can't. She has more value to me than you ever have. That's the main reason why I chose her. You are nothing! And to answer the question you asked a while ago, I'm here to see Rhea. So have a good day yourself."

His words hit me like the worst form of physical pain.

Cold freezing water has been emptied on my head and it's pouring down and soaking every inch of my body. It's diffusing into my spine and making it go rigid. I am one pile of pain forged into being. I run back to my own room and let my tears fall down my cheeks.
