THE LYCAN KING’S SECOND CHANCE MATE

Chapter 0401

REAGAN'S POV.

"No!" Selena exclaims in total disbelief as she steps out of the car in the castle premises. Kyle and Ronald bullied me into accepting her request to let her move into the castle. "No!" She exclaims yet again, looking around the premises and the building in awe.

"Why do you keep saying no?" I ask softly and she turns to face me with a confused look on her face.

"This is the castle. You've brought me to the castle."

"Yeah. Yesterday you told me you wanted to move here."

"Yes I did, but you didn't give me a response and the look you had gave me the impression that you didn't like the idea. I didn't think you were going to say yes to my request." Her smile nearly splits her face in two halves. She looks so happy.

"Well, I pondered upon it and thought why not? If it's what you want, you can have it."

"Oh thank you!" She crashes into my body, wrapping her arms around my torso while her head rests on my chest. "Thank you very much for granting my request. You have no idea how happy this makes me feel.”

I look down at her head and heave out a tired sigh. If only she knew how much I do not want to do this, she wouldn't be beaming with excitement like she is right now.

"It's nothing." Calmly, I pull her away from me and smile at her. "How about we go inside?"

"That sounds great. I can't wait to go in and see how everything looks after all these years."

“Nothing much has changed." I say, leading the way in and she follows with her eyes still hovering around, looking at random things as we go in. Once in the living room, she's completely gobsmacked and I have to hastily take her upstairs to where the bedrooms are located so she doesn't faint from shock and surprise.

"That living room looked nothing like that the last time I saw it."

"Yeah. I did a few arrangements. Do you like it?"

"I love it! Oh..." She suddenly exclaims as she comes to a halt In Front of door. When I look at it, I understand why she just exclaimed and stopped walking and it amused me that she remembered that door.

It's the door to the bedroom we shared five years ago when we were together as mates. When I lost her, I moved into another bedroom because I could not stand the thought of being in this bedroom without her.

"This..." She points at the door. "This is our bedroom."This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

"Used to be." I correct calmly and she looks at me.

"Huh?"

"I changed rooms after you disappeared. I couldn't bring myself to keep sleeping in the same bedroom without you."

"Oh..." she exclaims with a light now. "I see. I means it's normal. I would have probably done the same thing."

The word "liar" crawls from my vocal cord into my mouth and sits on the top of my tongue. All I have to do is pry my lips open and the word will fall out so she can know I know all about her lies, but I hold myself back. I seal my lips into a thin and swallow the word back into my stomach before looking at her again.

"It's empty right now. If you want, you can choose it as your bedroom.”

"What about the bedroom you moved into? Where is it?"

"It's on the other wing."

"Oh... I see."

"Yeah. You can look around. Any room you choose on this wing will be set up to your taste."

"My bedroom will be on this wing?" She sounds a bit disappointed and I know exactly why, but I choose to stay neutral so I nod. "Yeah."

"And yours will be on the other wing?"

"Yes."

"Ahh..." She flashes me a forced smile. I can see the disappointment glistering in her eyes like a shiny glass. "I see."

What exactly was she thinking?

That I'd bring her over and share my bedroom with her?

Tss.

That's never going to happen.

"Yeah. I'll leave you to it then. I have some work to get back to at the office. All the servants are at your service. Call me if anything up."

"Okay."

swes

"See you later." I turn to leave but she holds me back. Her tiny fingers are holding onto my arm like she never wants to let go. Calmly, slowly, I look back at her and I'm greeted with avery serious look on her face. "Any problem?" I'm trying so hard to keep my voice low and calm because I've already run out of patience.

Soon, I'll snap at her.

"You're just going to go like that?"

My brows rise in confusion.

"Is there something I need to do before leaving?"

She tilts her head to the side and gives me a lopsided smile. “Isn't there?"

That's when it kicks.

A kiss.

She expects me to kiss her.

Fuck!

"I don't know, is there?" I feign ignorance. Before I know it, she's on her toes bringing her face closer to mine, with her lips aiming for mine.

Swiftly, I turn my head to the side ripping my lips from her reach and presenting my right cheek instead and the kiss intended for my lips, lands on it. I freeze. My eyes widened in shock. A rush of adrenaline spreads from my head to my toes and my heart rate skyrockets.

What in the seven hells have I gotten myself into!
