The Lycan King’s Second Chance Mate by Sumi

REAGAN'S POV.

Another wave of excruciating silence washes through the atmosphere as I stay planted on my spot, staring at Selena, wondering if she has been possessed. This is the second tough question she's asking and her tone is different from that which she uses when we converse normally.

She sounds curious and a bit offended. Like she will not let me go unless I give her an answer, but I can't.

If she's asking this question, it means she has no idea about Ashanti.

How on earth is that possible? Was she living in a cave all these years?

"Alpha Reagan." Her calm voice interrupts my thoughts, bringing me back to earth. "You still haven't answered my question."

I cannot tell her about Ashanti.

As it is now, things are already complicated. Selena knowing about Ashanti will only make them worse.

"You need to rest." I change the topic. Her face darkens with dismay.
