ASHANTI'S POV.
"Tessa." I call again, shocked to the bone. It takes milliseconds for tears to well up in my eyes. I stay frozen on my spot, unable to process the thoughts and emotions swimming through me. I open my mouth to speak again, but words fail. My mind has gone completely blank and my voice is nowhere to be found.
Tessa. In my kitchen. Cooking.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThis is unbelievable! "Ashanti." She finally calls my nand starts walking towards me. My heart bursts with emotions when she pullsinto a warm sisterly hug... The shug we used to share when we were still roommates.
I let the tears in my eyes break loose and freefall down my face. My nostrils are clogged with mucus threatening to leak down, tears have blinded my vision and I'm sobbing in her arms like an unhappy child. But these aren't tears of pain, but tears of joy.
Joy that I've met Tessa again. Joy that she doesn't seem to be upset with me. Joy that she's huggingagain despite the fact that I deserted her two years ago.
"Wow. I am so confused right now." That's Ryan. "Can someone tellwhat's going on here? Do you two know each other?" Tessa and I disengage from our hug and shoot him furious glares.
"Isn't it obvious?" I ask, irritated.
"Oh..." "Yes and perish any idea you have about taking her number. Unless you want to have scores to settle with Delta Kyle." "Oh shit!" "Yes. Shit!" "Awww... the cute guy wants to take my number." Tessa coos in a tiny voice that grates on my nerves.
"Tess. Don't start." I roll my eyes.
"But he's cute!" She insists.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Is he cuter than Delta Kyle?" "Well... no... but he's cute." She looks back at Ryan who's staring at us as though we've gone crazy. "Who's he?" "My younger brother." "Younger brother?" Her brows furrow in surprise. "I didn't know you had a brother." "I didn't know until two years ago." "Oh... what a pleasant surprise." "Tessa... enough about my brother. What are you doing here?" Her face goes dark and I immediately understand why.
She's here to comfort me. Delta Kyle must have told her about Selena's sudden reappearance.
"Kyle toldwhat happened. I cto check on you. How are you holding up?" "Right... I don't like the melancholy flying in the atmosphere right now. I'll leave you girls." Says Ryan as he turns on his heels and exits the kitchen. I look back at Tessa Trying to keep a straight look on. "Tess, I'm not going to lie, I'm not happy about the news, but what can I do?" "What do you mean by that?" "Why would the Moon goddess send Selena if not to makeunderstand I have no place in Alpha Reagan's life?"
"No. No... Oh my God you are so wrong. It's nothing like that. You have a place in Alpha Reagan's life. You ve are his wife and soulmate. You two belong to each other. Don't just give up on him because Selena has shown up." "But I want to." "What the hell do you mean by that?"
"Tessa, I'm sick and tired of all these troubles. Ever since Reagan and I met it has been from one problem to wanother. We never had a peaceful relationship, Tessa. Trouble, trouble and nothing but trouble. It's exhausting! I'm tired." "I understand you. I completely understand, but..."
"Ugh! There's always a but..." My eyes flicker to the entrance of the kitchen and a loud gasp escapes my chest when I see him standing at the door. "Alpha Reagan!" I call, aghast and he just stands, staring atwith the most sorry look on his face. Drat! This is not how I wanted my morning to go.
