THE LYCAN KING’S SECOND CHANCE MATE novel Chapter 237

“Ashanti…”

“You've never treated me as your equal. You are always the one charge. It's always you who decides when to move forward or take a step back according to your interests. Like when you had the issue with the elders, instead of communicating with me, you silently pushed me far away from you and treated me like trash. That's not how one should treat their mate. It's true that you're the Lycan King and I'm an ordinary werewolf, but the Moon goddess chose me to be your mate and your Luna and that means I'm your equal but you've never treated me like your equal and right now, I feel inferior to you which is not right!”

“Ash…”

“Tell me, were you ever going to tell me we were mates?”

“Yes, I was.”

“Liar. I don't believe you.”

“Please baby…” He tries to take my hand but I dodge his hold and take several steps away from him. The defeated look on his face breaks all my bones in my body. He makes it seem like I'm being hard on him, but that's what he's been to me all this while.

All he had to do was tell me about our mate status the first day we met.

I would not have gone through all that stress. My sister Rhea would not be locked up in the dungeon for trying to set me up. Alina would not be pregnant with his child right now. Things would have been a lot easier and more peaceful between us.

He let our relationship suffer and it was because he wasn't sure I was the one he wanted to spend the rest of his life with. And since he wasn't sure, I'll give him the pleasure of leaving.

“Baby, you're getting it all wrong.” He finally speaks. “I didn't stall because I was disappointed or because I doubted your abilities. I was scared.”

“I still don't believe you and I don't want to stay here anymore. I've suffered enough, I've been hurt by you enough. I want to leave. Reject me so I can go out there and start a new life for myself. I don't want you, I don't want your castle, I don't want any of this. Please reject me and send me away!”

“That's never going to happen.” He says in a deadly tone. “I'm never going to reject you. You are mine and I’m yours. We are meant to be with each other.”
