The Lycan King’s Second Chance Mate by Sumi

ASHANTI'S POV.

My heart is ticking like a time bomb as I'm being led by a guard to Alpha Reagan's office. After that very bone chilling conversation with Tamara, I made a last minute decision to come over here and thank Alpha Reagan for keeping his promise to me, but right now, I sort of regret that decision because I'm nervous as fuck. The last time I was here was over two years ago. I was still a Harem girl and he was still hiding the fact that we were mates. I can still remember that day vividly like it happened yesterday.

"We're here." The guard's announcement snaps me out of my thoughts as we come to halt in front of a door. I look up at the familiar door and let out a deep, quiet sigh.

One other thing that's making my guts form knots in my stomach is the fact that Alpha Reagan is completely unaware of my coming here. When I arrived and told the guards downstairs I wanted to see him, they didn't even ask any questions and brought me here... The sound of the office door suddenly swings open with so much force, the wind it blows nearly locks me off my feet. Alpha Reagan's face comes into full view and the moment he sets his eyes on me, he freezes and blinks many times in disbelief. "Alpha Reagan!" I call, shocked by his sudden outburst.

"Ashanti." He whispers almost lifelessly. The guard, my escort, bows to both of us and leaves us to ride on with our drama.

"Why did you open the door like that?"

"Your pheromone." He says almost absentmindedly, looking left and right before focusing his gaze on me again. "I smelt it. And King told alerted me of your presence here. I wanted to deny it as I couldn't think of a single reason why you would come all the way here to see me, but he kept insisting and your pheromone... your pheromone kept messing with my head, so here I am..."

My face has turned crimson red.

I am sealing my lips shut into a thin line to stop my very smile from showing but I'm failing woefully at it.

His wolf alerted him of my presence. He could smell my pheromone. It was messing with his head.

That's exactly the effect a she-wolf should have on her mate and I've got that effect on him. My heart feels like a jar of honey has been poured into it.

"Please, come inside." He steps away from the doorway and gestures to me to go in which I do, calmly, even though what I really want to do is run inside or skip inside while screaming with happiness. Excitement is bubbling in my veins and if I don't express it, it might burst out out in its own way, but I have to stay composed.

The situation at hand does not permit me to smile with this man anyhow I want.

"You're welcome to my office."

He says as we both sit on the same couch. I nod quietly.

"Why didn't you tell me you were coming?"
