NovelEnglishChapter 0154 +15 BONUS He wants to tie my head up in a ponytail and he knows I always wear the rubber bands I'll use on my left wrist. I purse my lips together, trying to hide my smile as he proceeds to tie my my hair up.
As usual, all eyes are on us and I feel very awkward. The minutes snail by and it's until I think knees are going to give way forto reach the ground that he says; my "All done." I sigh in relief and leave his presence.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe only place I'm able to handle this man is in the bedroom. I can only comfortably interact with him when we're just the two of us. When extra pairs of eyes get involved, everything becomes awkward and I have no idea what to do with myself.
Sighing, I shake off the thoughts and jog over to Delta Kyle who's rallying the others to cover so we can start warming up.
"Delta Kyle." I flash him a smile.
"You look cheerful this morning." "That's because I had a splendid night!" "I'm happy for you!" He looks at my hair and his brows crease. "You already have it tied up. >> "Yeah." I don't tell him Alpha Reagan helpedeven though I'm sure he knows already.
"Too bad. I looked forward to doing it for you." "Next time." "Mean it, Ashanti! Next tI'll be the one to tie your head up in a ponytail." "I promise." Good. Now let's join the others." I nod and we both join the line of guys and girls jogging around the arena.
I have done a great job ignoring Nelly and Alina today. I haven't made eye contact with any of them since I got here, but I can feel them looking at me. Especially Alina. This heat I'm feeling all over my body is a result of the scorching looks she's throwing my way now and then.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm************** ***** "Strawberries!" Alina chokes out in agony and I instantly release her neck from my arm's firm grip. The entire hall is filled with gasps from sof the men and applause from a few others. "It's a draw!" One of the guys shouts out. "Ashanti finally had a draw with Alina! Way to go, Ash!" "Thank you, Nick." I smile at him. I look at Alina and there's a scornful look on her face as she struggles to stabilize her heavy breathing.
If she had surrendered faster, she wouldn't be wheezing! "She cheated!" She shouts bitterly and I'm taken aback by her sudden accusation. "She tried to 1/2 strangle me! What was I supposed to do in that situation?" "Peel her arm off your neck like she did when you tried to strangle her as well during the fifth round." Her brother, Kyle, says and steps forward. "When real soldiers lose a duel, they bow respectfully to their opponent as a sign that they acknowledge their skills. They don't go off about how they were cheated. That's a sign of weakness. And no Lycan Soldier is a weakling His voice drops an octave with that last statement. Alina's furry only grows worse. She jumps to her feet and closes the gap between us, lookingstraight in the eyes. Hers are burning with anger and indignation. She feels like I've humiliated her. If she had a sword or dagger in her hand, I'd be on the floor, bleeding from a wound or stab she would have inflicted on me. "You'll pay for this." She sneers. I smirk.
"Dishing out threats again? Your pot of threats never runs dry, does it?" She huffs and spins around, making sure her ponytail whips my face before storming out of the arena. I chuckle lightly! Spoiled brat! "That was brilliant!" Says Delta Kyle as he approaches me. The fake smile that was meant for Alina turns into a genuine one.
"Thank you. I could've only done that because of the training you all have given me. Thank you very much." "You're welcome. You must be exhausted, do you mind if I walk you home?"
"That won't be necessary..." A voice speaks before I can give a response to his question. It's Apha Reagan. We both look at him. He winks at me. "I ve will be the one walking Ashanti back to her quarters today." The entire hall goes dead silent.
As if that's not enough, he proceeds to go over to the sitting area and picks up my backpack, then he callsover with a hand show. "Con. Let's go." Has he lost sof his brain cells? X
