NovelEnglishREAGAN'S POV.
"Good morning, My Lord." The two guards stationed outside the door to the penthouse greet in unison with their heads bowed down as I approach them. When I'm close, I stop on my tracks and let my gaze slide over their profiles.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJake and Stanley.
Vibrant young men in their mid-twenties dressed in suits and armed with their favourite weapons, ready to execute any order I give.
I'm not saying their lives aren't tough or that people like them don't have problems, but I think maybe my life would be a lot easier if I were a royal guard. All I had to do was execute orders. I had the right to choose whoever I wanted to be with without having to worry about the opinions of the general public. Sometimes being a leader is more of a curse than a blessing and like I said before, if in my next life I find out on my birth bed that I was born an Alpha again heir again, I will kill myself.
"Good morning. You may lift your heads up." I return their greetings and instruct and they quickly do that. Jake steps towards the door and types the door code for me. I give him a thank you nod and step into the penthouse, making sure to close the door behind me.
I'm here to see Ashanti.
I chexhausted last night so I decided to go straight to bed because I knew coming to see her would only getmore exhausted as we'd do nothing but yell at each other.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Is this what I've been reduced to now? A prisoner!" An angrily looking Ashanti booms as she takes long strides over to me. With the way I see her approaching, I expect a smack to land on my left cheek when she finally steps in front of me, but it doesn't. She simply stands a few metres fromand scowls atas though trying to hurtwith her eyes. Her intense gaze and the overall look on her face nearly makeslaugh, but I know I'll lose my head if I dare to do that, so I keep a straight face and let my eyes linger over the length of her body from head to toe. She looks beautiful in that little blue dress she has on.
"Good morning to you, Ashanti." I greet, training my eyes back on her face. My little stallion rolls her eyes atand groans in frustration.
"There's nothing good about this morning." "Oh, there is. There are many good things actually and I could start listing them, but I do not want to bore you with all that as you do not look interested in knowing." "It's good you figured that out." I chuckle and walk past her.
"I asked you a question but you still haven't givena response." The sound of her approaching footsteps makesstop in my tracks. She comes around and plants herself in front ofagain, still frowning "Am I you prisoner now?" "No, you are not! I could never make you a prisoner."
"So what's all this about? Why do you keeplocked up in here?"
"Because you threatened to leave and because there's a lot of shit going on out there! Shit I don't want you being exposed to."
"To what end?" One step forward. Her eyes are boring holes through my face. My facial features will ignite if she keeps looking atlike that. "The elders in your council hate me. The pack subjects are definitely protesting against you marrying an ordinary werewolf and letting her rule over them as Luna. The entire Lycan world has gone frantic because of our union. They don't want me. They want Alina for you especially now that she's carrying your child. You should listen to them. Letgo and marry Alina in my stead so you can restore your pack's peace." X
