The Lycan King’s Second Chance Mate by Sumi

CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED AND EIGHTY...

ASHANTI'S POV.

My eyes flutter open and the ceiling above comes into view. I'm in my room, lying on my bed and the rays of light peering through the little cracks of the window curtains on the other end of the room tell me it's morning. I start to panic but then I remember there's nothing for me to panic about because we've been given a one month break to prepare for the next round of the competition, which means I've got a lot of free time on my hands right now.

I look left and my heart misses a beat when I see a large pile of a man sleeping on the bed beside me, flat on his stomach and facing my direction and that's when the events of last night replay in my mind like a movie. I came back home from my evening walk with Leonard and met Alpha Reagan in the living room. We argued for a bit and then he suddenly kissed me and I liked it, so I kissed him back and we made our way into my bedroom where we had sex.

"Enjoying the view?" Alpha Reagan suddenly speaks with his eyes still closed and fear nearly makes me jump out of my skin. A small, frightened gasp escapes my lips and my hand flies over to hold my chest to prevent my heart from skipping out of it.

"Don't do that!" I cry, giving him a small smack on his bare shoulder and he starts chuckling as his eyelids flutter open and bless me with the view of his charming dark brown eyes. "Don't scare me like that again." I warn, but my tone will make no one take those words seriously.

"I'm sorry." He apologizes regardless as he sits upright on the bed. "Good morning.” He greets and pulls me into his arms, planting a soft kiss on my forehead that sends my mind into a frenzy. An observable blush starts from my neck and spreads up to my face and by the time he releases me from his hold, my face has turned a beetroot. The butterflies in my stomach have risen from their slumber and are flying all over the place.

We had sex last night.

I don't know if that will further complicate things between us or fix them, but what I know is that we had sex last night and it was magical. I loved it!

"How was your night?" He asks, concerned and I blush even harder. It takes me all my might to conjure the courage to look at him again with my red, blushing face.

"It was amazing. We did some things that I really liked."

"Really?" Surprise flashes in his eyes as he turns to face me completely. "Do you mind telling me a few of the things we did that you liked?" He asks in a small, playful voice and I burst into laughter.

I've certainly missed this goofy side of Reagan.

A lot.
