The Lycan King’s Second Chance Mate by Sumi

REAGAN'S POV.

Several moments go by before I peel my eyes from the door Ashanti just exited. My head is spinning like a wheel in motion as I try to process the last few sentences she said before leaving.

What did she mean when she said she won't get mad at me if I cuddled Selena?
