THE LYCAN KING’S SECOND CHANCE MATE novel Chapter 386

“Oh my God!” I whisper with a shaky voice. “Why didn't I think of that?”

“You have to be careful, Ash. I experienced something similar the tear I won Fashion King. A group of make and female designers ganged up against me and swore to get me disqualified from the competition. They messed up with my equipment, tried to implicate me during competitions. I almost got disqualified, but the Moon goddess saved me because she knew I was innocent. As it is now, people see you as a threat and they'll do anything to send you packing in order to increase their chances of winning.”

“Why's that? Why do they even do that? This is just a competition? They are all good designers, why can't they just compete fairly?”

“I’ve asked myself the same question many times, but I’ve still gotten no response. It makes no sense to me why someone would ruin another person's chance of winning just to create a chance for his or herself. It's lame, but what can we do?” He asked shrugging and I let out a tired sigh.

From now on, I won't just be anxious about the competition, but also about people who will try to get me disqualified.

Just great!

“Thank you very much for the heads up, Leonard. I’ll watch my back more carefully from now on.”

“You should.” He says and throws another look at the door behind him and I cannot take it anymore.

“I noticed you keep looking at the door. Are you expecting anyone?” His pupils dilate. He looks surprised by my observation.

“Uh… yes. I am.”

“Who are you expecting?”

“Alpha Reagan.”

The name jars in my ear like loud music.

“Who?” I ask again to be sure I heard the name right.

“Alpha Reagan.” He repeats the name and my stupid heart starts doing backflips in my chest.

The sound of his name excites me, but the fact that he's going to be joining us infuriates me!

“I… I don't understand. Why will be joining us?”
