The Lycan King’s Second Chance Mate by Sumi

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTY-SEVEN.

ASHANTI'S POV.

I waited all day and for the better part of the night for Alpha Reagan, but he didn't show up. He didn't come to see me and I fell asleep with a million worrisome thoughts ringing in my mind. I couldn't help but ask myself what was going on and why he was treating me the way he did.

He said he loved me and I know that's true because we are true mates. He said he wanted to be with me. The last time we fought he even let it slip that he was willing to make me his Luna, but when I told him about my desire to leave, he turned into something else and right now, I'm scared of him.

I'm terrified of him because I have no idea what he's capable of doing to me. From now on, I'll be keen and vigilant. As much as I love him, as much as I want to be with him, I can't because if I do, I'm never going to be happy. Alina will make sure of that.

I have to find a way to escape. It's going to be difficult and he might catch me during my first attempt, but I'm never going to stop trying. One thing for sure is that I will leave this castle and this pack as a whole one way or the other.

Sighing heavily, I step down from the bed and saunter into the bathroom where I do my business and freshen up. When I return to the bedroom, I'm startled to see the maid, Lizzy, step out of the closet into the bedroom.
