The Lycan King’s Second Chance Mate (Ashanti) novel Chapter 203

ASHANTI’S POV.

Alpha Reagan accompanies me to the hallway that leads to Rhea's cell. I have tried to get him off my back time and again, but he's adamant to stay behind. He wants to go with me to the cell and hear what I have to talk about with Rhea.

“You know what you're about to do is invasion of privacy, don't you?”

“Fine, Ashanti.” He finally surrenders and stops in his tracks. I smile. “Since you don't want me to be there, I'll go back down. Meet me when you're done.”

“I'll do just that. Thank you.” He turns on his heels and heads for the staircase. I keep walking forward, looking at the cells on my left and right, trying to locate Rhea's and I finally find it somewhere in the middle of the long, empty, and nearly dark hallway. It's so empty, that the sound of my boots clicking off the floor echoes all over the place as I walk.

I stop in front of her cell and the moment she sees me, she lets out an annoyed sigh. Barely an hour ago, I was seated just like her in another cell all because of her.

“What are you doing here?”

She doesn't sound or look impressed by my presence. I don't expect her to be.

“Are you here to mock me because I've finally found myself in a tight spot for once?” She asks rudely. I take a step closer to the cell door that's locked.

“You're not supposed to be here alone.” I say, calmly. She looks at me with creased brows.

“What do you mean by that?”

“You didn't plan this all by yourself. You weren't the one who masterminded the whole plan. It was someone else and you simply followed her orders, but now, you're being labeled the mastermind.”
