The Lycan King’s Second Chance Mate by Sumi

ASHANTI'S POV.

"Selena!" Alpha Reagan calls in a tone depicting concern as he steps into the ward. I follow suit. He walks over to the bed to meet her while I stop in my tracks and watch their interaction from afar. Selena is sitting upright on the bed, sobbing quietly as Alpha Reagan perches by her side and turns to face her. The first peculiar thing I notice about her is her blonde hair. It's long and looks a bit dishevelled probably because of everything that has been on in the last few hours. Alpha Reagan's presence seems to have aggravated her condition because right now, her sobs are no longer softs, but violent and tears are streaming down from her eyes like a waterfall.

"Alpha Reagan, I'm so sorry. I don't know what came over me, I swear it wasn't intentional. I didn't mean to hurt myself the way I did." She laments in tears and Reagan turns to look at me. He has an irritated look on and I immediately understand that what he intends to do is scold her for being so irresponsible and dramatic, but I shake my head, disagreeing with his intended move.

"No." I mouth the word to him and he creases his brows which means he insists on doing what he intends to do. "I said no!" I mouth yet again, this time around with a serious expression on my face. His face falls in dismay and he looks back at Selena who's still busy bawling her eyes out.

I don't know why but I hate the fact that she's pretty. Even in her crying state, her beauty is still evident and now that she's in tears, she looks very cute and adorable. Alpha Reagan just needs to look at that face for ten more seconds and all his anger will go away. She looks charming. I hate it!
