Prince Reagan

My Heart Beats For You

I watch as Janet expertly glides around in

the water with her long legs in an enthralling manner before making her way towards the steps. Her yellow bikini, showing off her creamy white skin and curvy body. She’s in such great shape. Her manicured long fingers grip the handrails of the stairs as she climbs out. She

mumbles something about going to have a

drink before she strolls out of the pool area.

“If you keep glaring at her like that, you’ll

end up drilling a hole in her back.” Lexi chuckles

as she swims over to my side, resting her back

against the sides just like me.

Luckily, Lexi had done a bit of shopping for me while I had been gone for those three days. I had noticed the new clothes in the closet but hadn’t thought much about it. She had

purchased some bikinis for me too, some were

my size and some weren’t. She said she had just

picked anything that was around my size.

I’m wearing a red one now while Lexi had

on a navy blue swimming trunk. Both our hairs are wet, and we’ve been in the pool for a while now. Lexi sometimes leaves along with Janet but comes back later. I can’t leave because the second I step out, my body goes up in flames, but I do notice that I’m not horny like I was yesterday. Just hot.

I haven’t moved my eyes off of Janet since we came here, studying her every move and trying to see past that smile she always has on. She seems fake to me.

“Isn’t it strange that she has been with Reagan all this while, and when she heard he’s

found his mate, instead of throwing a tantrum

like every normal girl, she accepts it with a laugh

and even wants to get to know me?” I ask the

question without staring away from where

Janet had just exited.

“It does seem strange, but what can she do?” Lexi shrugs beside me. “You’re bonded to Reagan by the moon. Nothing can break that.

She has no choice but to accept it.”

I slowly nod at words with my lips pursed. I still think something is off. “Had Reagan really like her so much?” I ask the question with a

lump forming in my throat as I remember what

Janet had said earlier. Had Reagan been so desperate to keep her by his side?

“Janet might have exaggerated a bit earlier

on,” Lexi answers, causing me to whip my head

at her. My eyes are wide open in anticipation, hoping there was a bit of lie in Janet’s words, because knowing Reagan was ready to go to any length to keep her puts a heavy weight on my chest.

“What do you mean?” I whisper the question

“Well, Reagan hadn’t exactly done all that just to keep her by his side. He had other reasons.” She explains while taking her drink from behind us so she could sip from it.

“What other reasons?” I ask in curiosity.

“Sometimes, we wouldn’t hear from Janet

for almost a decade. Even her parents were worried about her and would contact us a couple of times. I knew she really liked Reagan

then and would do anything to keep him. Sol

was the one who usually came up with the plan

of faking something just to get her attention. And it usually worked. She thinks it’s because

Reagan wants her back, but it’s just a way to

ensure she’s safe.” She narrates, and I can feel

this weight lift off my shoulders.

“So Reagan wasn’t that…desperate for

her?” I ask.

“I don’t think he ever was.” She shakes her

head. “He never stopped her whenever she

tried to leave. Now that I think about it, he has

never looked at her the way he looks at you.”

She turns to stare at me. “Reagan, Danny, and !

have been a small pack of our own for a very

long time now…plus Adrian. And I can see there’s something…new in him ever since he met you.” She smiles at me before taking another sip from her drink.
