ASHANTI'S POV.

My eyes flick to the wall clock for the thousandth time today and I sigh in dismay when I see that it's still eleven thirty am. Alpha Reagan is supposed to come pick me up by noon. I'm already dressed in comfortable clothes and shoes like he instructed and impatiently waiting for noon to come, burtime seems to be walking like a snail.

I remember how upset I was with him during our conversation yesterday after training. He said things that broke my heart and shattered my expectations. I had already made up my mind to get back into my shell and stop expecting anything from him, but one invitation for an outing and he broke my damn lock and stole my heart all over again. The thought of spending time with him outdoors makes me so happy, I feel like I'm going to die of euphoria.

After pacing about for some time, I slum on my bed and I'm about to lay on it when the room. door opens. My eyes shoot to the door and an elderly servant comes in view.

"Ma'am Athena." I call, rising from the bed.

"Alpha Reagan has arrived. He's waiting for you." My heart soars and plummets at the same. time. A fat smile covers my face as I hastily pick up my little handbag and rush out of the room. My heart leaps in my chest when I step out of the building and meet the passenger seat door of the car held open by a guard. I look around and there are five other cars, two in front and three behind, that will accompany ours. A convoy.

We'll be going out with a convoy.

Wow!

"Thank you." I tell the guard with a curt bow as I get into the car. His familiar smell hits my nostrils, bringing the smile back to my face.

Good morning, Ashanti." His gruff voice greets.

"Good morning, Alpha Reagan." I return his greeting and my heart melts when he smiles. Three inches forward, his breath is sweet and warm on my neck and he lifts his lips closer to my ear and whispers; "You look beautiful." Chills run down my spine and as a result, I get goosebumps all over my body. His lips drop back to my neck. He breathes my scent with his eyes closed and kisses my the nape of my neck and I'm not sure I've ever felt anything so incredible in my life.

The car starts moving.

I turn to look into his eyes that are now open. They are dark and deep and drenched in passion. His hand slips around my neck, drawing my face closer to his till our lips touch. Everytime he kisses me, it's like a burst of fire and electricity that ignites my bones in the most amazing way. I am vibrating with pleasure from head to toe.

After kissing for what seemed like forever, we finally pull out of each other's arms and I wish I' could disappear so he doesn't have to see how red my face has become.

"Don't you want to know where our first stop will be?"

"You haven't even given me the chance to settle or think ever since I got into this car." I strap

on my seat belt and flash him a fake frown. He grins and leans back on the chair.

"Touchè."

"What will we be doing first?"

"Eating." He looks at me.

"Eating."

"Yeah. It's already noon, we need to have lunch before riding on." My smile widens."

"Brilliant."

"Tell me, Ashanti..." He takes my right hand in his. "What's your favorite meal?" He asks out of nowhere and I gawk at him in disbelief. "What?" He questions when he sees how shocked I

1. am.

"Nothing. I'm just shocked to hear you ask such a question."

"Why are you shocked?"

"I... I..." I stutter because I have no idea what response to give him.

"It's okay. Just tell me your favorite meal."

"I love beef. I'm game for anything cooked with beef. Beef stew, beef sandwich, beef hamburger. Anything with beef on the table is what I'm going for."

"Interesting." He nods. "What about snacks? Any specific preference?" "Chocolate!" I blurt out. He laughs loudly.

"Of course. That's why you have such sweet lips. You eat them all the time."
