The Lycan King’s Second Chance Mate by Sumi

REAGAN'S POV.

"Selena..." My voice is a low and husky. She stares at me with eyes as bright as a hunting torch and I can see the excitement swimming in them.

"Yeah."

"Before that happens, I need you to tell me a few things."

"What is it you want me to tell you?"

I let out a heavy exhale before settling my gaze on her again. This will seem rushed, but I have to do it. Not for myself, but for my relationship with the woman I love.

"Selena, I know I agreed to wait until you are comfortable enough to talk about your experience while you were away these past years, but I don't think I can do that." I shift closer to her and take her hands in mine. "I want to know. I need to know what happened to you so I can deal with this issue once and for all and set my mind at ease. Please, tell me."

The excitement look on her face fades instantly and gloom returns to her eyes. Calmly, she takes her hand from my hold and tears her gaze from my face, plastering it against the wall on the other side of the

room.

It's a sour topic for her. I know that. I hate that I have to force her to do this, but I cannot do otherwise.

"What happened to you? Why were they so many wounds on you body when you showed up here? Also, a lot things have happened in my life these past years. Things that have reached the ends of this world and are on the lips of, if not all, but every member of every pack in this world, but surprisingly, you don't know them. I can't help but wonder how that's possible. Where could you possibly have been that even the most viral news did not reach you?"

"I was abducted!" She replies immediately, looking back at me. There's a firm, angry look in her eyes that makes me recoil on my spot.
