The Lycan King’s Second Chance Mate (Ashanti) novel Chapter 115

Chapter 0115
ASHANTI’S POV.
Let the best girl win.
Those words keep ringing in my mind as I watch Alina majestically walk out of the cafeteria. I can picture the triumphant smile she has on as she walks. She’s definitely praising herself, thinking she scared the s h i t out of my pants, but she’s wrong.
I am not scared of her threats. I know they are not empty. She is in fact, capable of ending my life just as easily as she did Hayley’s and I should be terrified. I should maybe find a way to leave this pack so she’ll stop thinking of ways to kill me, but all of those are just thoughts and I have no zeal to act upon them.
Alina is powerful and influential. She’s a power house of intimidation, but for reasons I do not know, I am not afraid of her. I am not afraid to go to war with her.
I know Alpha Reagan has no interest in me like she suspects, but I’m going to fight this war with her over him and I will win, just to prove to her that she’s not as invincible as she is.
“Ashanti.” Tessa’s voice interrupt my thoughts. That’s when I realise the food on my plate is finished. I ate it all without even realising it.
“Hmmm.” I mumble, looking at her.
“One of the last statements Alina made before leaving proves that she was involved in Hayley’s death. Or, did I not hear her right?” I let out a heavy sigh, pushing my empty plate aside.
“You heard well.” My voice is almost inaudible.
Thinking about Hayley, hearing someone say her name makes my heart hurt.
Just last night, she was alive and healthy. We spoke. Had fun. Laughed together. But today, she’s gone Gone forever. Tears sting at the back of my eyelids and I have to blink hard to prevent from spilling down my cheeks.
It’s too painful.
“She literally confessed. Can’t something be done about that?”
“You mean like telling the higher ups what she just said?”
“Yes!” She nods eagerly. I scoff in derision and shake my head.
“Tessa, do you honestly think Alina will let that out if she didn’t have any defense strategy? If I dare say anything to the higher ups, she will be summoned and questioned and she’s definitely going to deny it. It’ll be my word against hers. Whose do you think they’ll believe?” I ask with raised brows. Her shoulders sag in defeat.
“It’s definitely hers.”
“And I don’t need to tell you how bad things will turn out for me after that.”
“So what are we going to now? It’s true that I’m not very happy with Hayley for deceiving you,

but she didn’t deserve to die. The people who murdered her ought to be punished!” “And they will. The Moon goddess is just. She will serve justice when it’s due. For now, let’s try not to get tangled up in this mischievous web.” I caution and she nods in agreement. “And you need to be careful Ashanti. Alina is very furious right now. She’s going to do everything in her power to get rid of you ”
“I won’t let that happen.” My gaze snaps to the door she had exited. My mind replays the memory of her walking out of the cafeteria and it again makes me smile.
She might be a Lycan Warrior, but I’m a true born Alpha Heir. I’m going to fight her with every
fiber in
my body and I’ll make sure I win. I’ll make her see what she truly is.
Which is… NOTHING.
…
“I’ll get these for you.” A girl shows up from nowhere and starts clearing the plates off the table with a big smile plastered on her face. Tessa and I exchange the same confused looks before I train my eyes on the girl again.
“You… you don’t have to do that.” I try to stop her, but she won’t listen.
“Yes, I have to. Are you full? If you’re not, just let me know and I’ll get you more food. Both of you.” I shake my head. Tessa does the same.
“No. I’m okay for the night.”
“Cool then, I’ll just keep these away. Call me if you need anything else.” She carries both plates and bounces away.
I am speechless.
“This is getting very creepy.” Tessa cries out as she watches the girl s k i p away.
“What the f u c k has gotten into them? All of them? Look around. No one is throwing me dirty glances or gossiping about me. Like three girls have smiled at me when I made eye contact with them. I am completely lost as to what’s going on.”
“You really don’t know what’s going on?” Tessa asks and I quickly shake my head in denial.
n’t know.”
“I hones
That is not a lie.
“You just got transfered to the Premium Residence and that transfer was made possible by the Lycan King himself. That means he likes you. You’re in his good books and anyone who’s your friend or anyone who treats you right will be in his good books too. That’s why they are acting all funny.” She explains detaily and after everything assimilates in my mind, all I can do is chuckle and shake my head.
