Chapter 0062 ASHANTI’S POV. “Tessa, you know if it were up to me, I’d rather go for training without having breakfast. It’s too early to start this morning on a bad foot with anyone and also, the thought of those girls glaring at or bullying me give me ibby-gibbies.” I complain to Tessa who stops walking and turns my way. Her shoulders sag as she lets out a light sigh, titling her head sideways and giving me a bombastic side eye. And I’m also scared of them bringing up the issue with the Delta.” “What did I tell you a few minutes ago?” She comes. closer to me. My eyes dart from one end of the hallway to another before I focus my gaze on her once more. “If Alpha Reagan believes I’m innocent, then I have nothing to be worried about. Which is true, but what about the bullying? Once the news of Alpha Reagan believing me reaches them, which I know it already has, they’ll wonder what my relationship with him is and they’ll eat me raw. And when Alina finds out…” I throw my hands in the air as I imagine my doom. “Holy Lycans! Alina. She’s going to…” “Hey, hey, hey… Ashanti. Take a deep breath.”
Tessa cuts me off and I shut my mouth and do as instructed. With my eyes closed, I pull in a good amount of fresh, cool breath through my nostrils until my chest reaches its hilt, before releasing it. I repeat the action two more times and I feel my nerves uncoil and relax like a spell has been casted on them. I fix my gaze on Tessa.
“The girls will throw empty threats. Alina is just a desperate wench who only knows how to take things by force because a lot of the things she wants do not belong to her anyway. Forget about all of them as we go in there to eat breakfast. You have nothing to be worried about. Ponder only upon what I told you last night.
How to use Alpha Reagan’s interest in you to your fullest advantage. Now, stop being a cry baby and follow me inside.” She gives me a gentle pat on my left shoulder and leads the way into the cafeteria.
The atmosphere in the cafeteria is unusually calm and quiet as I walk in. I expected the girls to start murmuring to each other, but none of that is happening. Everyone is focused on either taking or eating their meals. Tessa and I exchange confused. glances and she shrugs her shoulders.
“This is good.” I chuckle lightly as we both head to the counter to take our food. We spot an empty table nearby and occupy it. My eyes are still going over the girls and each time I my eyes fall on Bat anyone who’s staring at me, she immediately looks. away like my gaze shocked her. “This is weird.” I whisper to Tessa “This is peace.” She whispers back. “At least we’ll finish our meals today.” “Yeah. That’s right.” “Is Ashanti here?” A voice asks from a corner. I freeze. The spoon in my hand drops on my plate. and I swing my head in the direction of the voice. There’s an elderly servant walking towards me with a serious look on her face. Thank G o d it’s not Lisa. I look at Tessa who seems to be just as confused as I am. My heart starts hammering in my chest as a thousand possible reasons for her walking up to me crosses my mind. All negative. Did Alpha Reagan change his mind? Did something happen again to make him believe I actually sent the package to the Beta? Is she here to announce my punishment? “Ashanti.” She calls and stands before me. I hastily rise to my feet, leaving my heart on the chair. “Yes, Ma’am.” My knees buckle when she looks at the other girls whose intentions are focused on us right now before looking back at me. And again, I have the attention of the crowd. “I really don’t know how you manage to pull these tricks, Ashanti.” Her brows are creased as she
makes that statement. She looks amused and confused and upset by something about me. My heart leaps out of my chest. I suck in a deep breath. “Ma’am. What do you mean by that?” “Of all the girls in here? Why you? The most controversial H r e m girl in this pack?” I release a shaky breath. My palms start sweating because I’m so nervous right now. I could faint. “Ma’am.” I whisper, breathing hard. “You are to serve the Alpha in his private quarters tonight.” She announces and for a moment, I feel like I’m existing out of my body. As if I’m looking at myself from her perspective. I am hot and cold and feeling unsteady. I need a moment to pull myself together. The gasps and whispers from the girls around are not helping the situation.RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
