Chapter 0399
REAGAN'S POV.
"Kyle." I call with great urgency the moment Kyle steps into my office. He's panting and looks alarmed.
"Who could have done such a thing?" He agitates as he walks over to Ronald and I. Ronald, as usual, is silent and he has a distant look in his eyes. He's thinking deep.
"I have no idea. I was shocked when I heard people talking about it at the hospital."
"The guards and the servants will never go against any of your commands. Never!" Ronald finally speaks and we both turn to him. He looks very serious. "They fear you and they know better than to go against your word and spread such news."
"What are you trying to say?" I ask with furrowed brows. I feel like he's heading somewhere.
"What I'm trying to say is that Selena might have a hand in this. The first indicator that she has the mind to instigate something is the fact that she attempted to end her life just to get your attention. That girl is dangerous."
A heavy sigh escapes my chest. I look away from both of them and plaster my gaze on the wall at the other end of the room.
Is this the Moon goddess' way of punishing me for all my shortcomings? By sending back a mate whom I thought I had lost to death five years ago to come and torment me?
This is too much.
"Alpha Reagan." Ronald's call interrupts my thoughts. I turn to them again. "On my way here I instructed a few experts to takedown the posts and claim it's false information. You can also address the subjects and tell them she's not here."
I shake my head in denial. Doing something of that sort will be adding fuel to a burning fire. Things will get out of hand if I dare to do that.
"Denying the fact that she's here will only make things worse, Kyle. The news is already out there. Also, if Selena truly let this out herself, she has prepared backup information to spread again if we try to silence her or deny her presence. We are not playing that game with her."
"If this goes on, there will be public unrest." That's Ronald. "The subjects will figure out that you have two mates and they will demand that you choose one from the two."
"This means I have to hasten up with the ongoing investigation. We need to find out Selena's motive before she does something even more drastic."
I nod in agreement.
It's true that I don't love Selena
I don'
anymore. Even the Moon goddess knows the only woman I want to spend the rest of my life with, is Ashanti. However, I cannot act on impose. The Moon goddess always has a reason for doing things.
Whether she resurrected Selena from the dead or kept her alive and away from me all these years, there must be a reason why she brought her to me again and I have to find out that reason before making any decision.
"Please do that. I need to find out Selena's motive and decide what to do with her before she does
something more chaotic." A tiredet
sigh follows that statement. "No der she begged me to r
her
to my chambers. She already set the plan in motion."
"She asked you to do what?"
"Let her stay with me in my chambers since we are still mates."
"Does she know about Ashanti?" Ronald asks with a calculative look on. I nod.
"Yes. I went to the hospital with Ashanti and introduced them to each other."
"So, she knows you have another mate who you've been with for the past two years, yet she acts like she still has every right to be with you?” "Yes." I nod, looking at Kyle who asked the question.
"And what was your response?"
"No, of course. There's no way I'm letting her come live with me at my chambers. What will Ashanti think."
