Daisy POVAsher and I were supposed to go through some documents and sort things out from the foreign investors who sent emails to me tonight. Everything was going smoothly until that bitch came.I couldn't hide my anger, I just couldn't control it. Why would he send me out because of her? If she's really passing through stomach pain, how does that stop her from staying in her room when Asher is not even a doctor and besides, why can't the three of us stay in the room while I concentrate on what brought me to his room instead of leaving just the two of them alone.I was happy with the little time I got to spend with Asher, only for her to come and ruin things for me.“No, I can't take this.” I turned around and walked back to Asher's room to give him a piece of my mind, but when I got to his door all my courage immediately left me, and even though I was furious I had to turn around and leave to my room.I was so worked up the previous night because my mind kept flashing back to Asher
Nichole/Rina POV I don't make an empty threat and when I set my heart on something I always achieve it. First, it was to become Asher's wife. I had to fake my own death to make it work and here I'm. What I wanted now was to take him completely away from Daisy. To achieve my goal and remain stuck with Asher forever I will need to give him a child, send Daisy out of his life, and then become the mother of her children. It was so sweet to be in the image of someone else using a face mask though it always gives me skin irritation but I get to always be myself in the mirror while bathing. I have missed my real face and it's like I'm beginning to forget my own look. Being a step-sister to Daisy has always been competitive to me. I want to be better than her in every aspect of life but with Asher by her side that would be impossible except I take him away from her. I stayed in the dark for more than five hours after eating dinner. By 11 I was watching, waiting for Asher to order for a
Daisy POVI lay awake that night, unable to sleep, my mind too full of thoughts and emotions to find any rest. I didn't want to leave my room, and I certainly didn't want to see Asher. If I did, I knew I would be tempted to go to his room, but I couldn't face the humiliation of being sent away again when he asked me to leave for Rina to stay. So I paced the floor of my room, consumed by my own thoughts, until the door suddenly burst open, startling me out of my reverie.Asher burst into my room, as if he had been running towards it with all his might. He looked disheveled, and his breath was coming in gasps. It was clear that he had come here for a reason, and I could only guess what it might be.“Asher…” I called wondering what exactly he was doing here at this time of the night with that look in his eyes, but my words were shut down when I felt his lips on my mouth.He cupped my face in his hands, his kiss fierce and desperate, like his life depended on it. His lips moved against mi
Asher's voice was filled with emotions when he spoke and his eyes filled with affection when he looked at me.After another long minute of kissing Asher broke away from the kiss and he made me go on my knees as he came behind me on the bed and he yanked my head forcefully making me to knee up straight without balancing my hands on the mattress.This is the typical Asher. The one who's rough and isn't gentle. The one who likes to be in control.I wince in pain due to how harsh he was to me, this side of him that a part of me likes before I finally feel his hot breath on my neck from behind as he leans closer to me, his hand still on my hair. His breathing was uncontrollable and sharp.His warm breath left goosebumps on my body before I felt his firm body pressed against my back. Then his free hand cupped my breast from behind, he fondled on the tender flesh for a while before his forefinger and thumb curled around my throbbing nipple he pinched slightly on the tender skin sending a zap
Daisy POVI turned around in my bed to face Asher, and we had our hands entwined together and our faces an inch apart. I thought he would be gone this morning before I woke up just like how he always did, but I was in awe and disbelief when I saw Asher on my bed smuggling me closer to himself like he was afraid to lose me.Last night after many rounds of sex I was surprised to see Asher sleeping peacefully like a newborn baby next to me.It felt strange to see him in peace like this, unlike every other day. “Teach me to love you.”Asher's voice last night played in my head and my heart fluttered with admiration, beating harder for him.At least we are moving forward. He's a step away to loving me. He's ready to give love a chance, he's ready to love me.As I thought about all of this, a smile spread across my face. I felt a growing affection for this man, and I understood why it was so hard for him to trust and love again after all he'd been through. But I had faith in him, and I kne
Nicole/Rina POVI checked the time again for the countless Daisy and Asher isn't here yet. They're 2 hours and 30 minutes late for the ball yet they aren't here.I looked around the room, hoping to catch a glimpse of Asher and Daisy, but it was in vain. People were chatting, drinking, and waiting for the Alpha King, while I sat there alone, feeling a little out of place. No one seemed to notice me, and I couldn't help but feel a bit like a wallflower.Gosh, I hate this! I clenched my hand in a fist and stormed out of the hall back to my car to await their presence.This is an annual ball in Arizona celebrated just once in a year and the biggest to be ever held inviting everyone from the seven packs of Arizona. Both the rich and the poor, masters and slaves. Ever since Asher's ex-mate ran away with their child, such a ball hadn't been held in a long time over 8 years so everyone was happy that they got to be here today.Today was supposed to be the best day of my life as Asher's wife s
Nichole/Rina Soon the grand entrance was over and I sat next to Asher at a round table trying to fight off my anger.“Come here, my daughter.” I heard Asher's mother's voice as she stood up from where she was seated next to him on the left for Daisy to occupy it.What's the honor of being his wife when she's sitting next to Asher? I frowned.“Grandma I missed you and the kids too.” They both hugged themselves happily.“I missed my grandkids too. Too bad kids aren't allowed here.”I watched them chatting happily, exchanging pleasantries, and catching up on news and events. I stood there, feeling like a third wheel, like I didn't exist. I knew it was irrational, but I couldn't help but feel a pang of jealousy and resentment.Unable to take it anymore I picked up my purse and excused myself from their presence.This is suffocating, I can't breathe because they all made me feel irrelevant.I ducked into the restroom and splashed cold water on my face, scrubbing my hands and trying to hol
Nichole/Rina POVSince everything that happened, the Alpha has been ignoring me, or at least, avoiding me. He's always with Daisy, whether at the pool, the office, or anywhere else. Even if I go to his office, he barely looks my way. It's almost as if he's deliberately avoiding me. To make matters worse, he's stopped assigning me any work that would require me to go to his office, so I don't even have a reason to see him anymore.He told me to focus on being just his wife and not ask for more but the jealous side of me that always imagined him with Daisy won't let me rest. The Alpha has finally slipped out of my hands and he's in Daisy's grips.If I don't act fast, if I don't take a step then he might kick me out in the end. I was doing my evening skincare routine when a knock came at the door. "Come in," I said, and the door opened to reveal a maid, who bowed as she entered.“Why are you here?” I asked because I didn't request her presence.“The Alpha King told me to inform you that
Daisy POVEverything seemed to go back to normal. But not just normal - Asher was able to show me how much he loved me in every possible way, at every opportunity. And now, I had grown accustomed to being loved by him, and I couldn't imagine my life without him.Nicole was sentenced to life imprisonment with hard labor, while her mother, who was also an acquaintance, was sentenced to fifteen years in prison. My father came to beg my Mom and me and we forgave him. He retired from being the Alpha of our pack and Nathan took over while I was ordained the Luna of the seven packs in Arizona and the only beloved wife of Asher the Alpha King.Asher later told me that I was the girl who saved him fifteen years ago that Nicole was impersonating. At first, I couldn't believe it because I have no memories of fifteen years ago, but my mother told me stories of what happened.She explained that I had gone missing as a child, after the death of my brother, who had drowned in the pool. It was then t
Asher POVI raised my head from the pillow, eyes blinking against the morning light that streamed through the window. A yawn escaped my mouth as I stretched my arms and legs, feeling the impact of the night's make-out with her. Slowly, I sat up, my hair disheveled and there I was still heavy with sleep. But when I noticed the presence of the slender woman who was sleeping next to me, I had to pause whatever was going through my mind as I stared at her in awe, disbelief visible in my eyes.How could I not know?How could I not know that the woman right under my nose was my beloved wife, Daisy?Gently enough not to cause her to wake up, I rolled down the devout covering her chest up to confirm what I saw last night. The mark was still there, on her right breast, I was sure she was the one. This was the only thing I used to recognize her five years ago.“She's Daisy.’ That voice whispered in my head again, and the funniest, most unbelievable thing was that she was my mate.What is going
Daisy POVAsher had been everywhere around me. These days he closes early from work just to watch me with the kids, and at times he joins our conversation and plays with us. For a moment, we look like the perfect happy family that we were supposed to be, but I keep reminding myself that this isn't real.I was sure that he regretted everything he had done in the past, especially to me, and I doubted if he would ever stop blaming himself and hating himself. He always stays alone, if he is not reading in the room most of the time lost in thoughts and when I manage to watch him sleep in the afternoon during weekends he always has tears in his eyes. He always speaks in his dream like he was trying to reach out to me.And he has never relented in his search for me.At times, I wish I could just go up to him and tell him not to worry that I'm here with him, but I'm holding myself from doing that.Asher had dropped me off in front of my house as usual, but when I attempted to drop from his ca
Daisy POVAfter spending enough time with the children I was later told that evening that Asher needed to see me.I stood at the front of his library room, my heart beating harder against my chest as I wondered what would happen should I see Asher again.Would he recognize me or not?The guard who escorted me here knocked on the door and Asher answered him from inside.“The lady is here, sir.”“Let her in.” When I heard his voice my body went still for a moment as I tried to compose myself together so I wouldn't break down before him.“I'm now Ria, not Daisy,” I muttered to myself to bring back my courage and not act clumsy before him.As I walked into the room, the only sound was the soft whoosh of the door closing behind me. My eyes were drawn to Asher, who sat at a table, his head buried in a book. His hair was a mess, sticking up in all directions, and his face looked pale and drawn. He seemed to have lost weight since I'd last seen him. He didn't even look up from his book as I
Daisy POVI wonder how my children will feel should they see me again.Would they be curious or happy? I asked myself as I put extra work into my makeup. I want Asher to see me and be moved by my beauty. My wolf was getting excited for today's journey too. I don't even know if I would be able to keep the truth away from my children.When I got out of my car in the big gigantic compound of the Alpha King I couldn't help but remember the memories this place holds both the happy ones and even the heartbroken ones.It was hard to believe that people lived here. It was eerily quiet, like a graveyard. The place felt deserted, as though no one was home.I was told to remain outside so they could inform someone of my presence and as I waited deep inside me I wished I could be able to see Asher at this moment. I just needed to see his face, just for a while just a little bit I have missed him so much. I didn't know I loved this man so much until I was away from him.“Ma'am you can go in, madam
Daisy POVMy legs, my limbs, my entire body were all weak and unable to carry me when I tried to drive back home. I had to call Tiana to drive me back home because the revelation of what Nichole had been doing behind my back was too much for me to accept.Why would Nichole go this far just to bring me down? She had to fake her death and live a deceitful life just to make Asher like her, just to bring me down.She's my step sister but I have never thought any evil about her.Good thing I came back as someone's different all thanks to Kieran so this time I'm going to fight until I bring her down. I will expose her and she won't be able to escape my wrath.I had fainted while on the phone with Tiana who later drove me back home and when I woke up she wasn't here with me so I placed a call across to her to find me more information about the teacher needed for Juniper.Few hours later she called me back and told me that it's not just an ordinary teacher but someone who can make juniper tal
Daisy POVFrom the station, I went straight to check on my mother in the hospital but when I got there I was told that she had been discharged from the hospital and she's now receiving her treatment from home.So I drove to my father's mansion, a place I hadn't been for quite a long time. I felt a lump in my throat and my hands tightened around the steering wheel when I remembered how I was treated the last time I came here.But this time it would be different. I told myself as I came down from the car and I headed straight to the big gate.When I knocked on the black gate a few minutes later a guard opened up for me.“Yes, who are you?” He asked me with his body still blocking the way.I remained silent for a while. My voice was lost in words. It felt so strange that I was asked who I was at my father's house. This is the first time I have been asked such a question. Other times I'm ushered in though I wasn't warmly welcomed by the people inside. “Ma, who are you?” The security guy
Daisy POVDays turned to weeks and weeks into months, five months later I came back to Arizona feeling the air and lifestyle I left behind bringing fresh memories about my past and the desire to run back to my children and Asher but I'm holding back.After going through a lot of training and self-building with the help of my mate and his grandmother I'm finally back as a changed person.I changed the color of my hair from its natural blonde to dark brown, then my blue eyes to amber, and even my fashion style. It's like I changed everything about myself except my heart and the feelings I experienced.It wouldn't have been easy for me to pass through such a tough time alone but with the help of my mate and my wolf, I'm going to come out victorious.No one knows my identity except those I want to tell, I'm like the god of my life.First I sent Tiana to go check on my kids and she came back with reports that they're trying to cope except for Asher who has been the worst part of himself. I
Daisy POVWhen Mrs Gianna, Karien's grandmother told me that the process is painful and dangerous she wasn't joking about it and if not for the fact that restoring my wolf is that important I wouldn't have agreed to it.She has been like a God to me, she helped me to stay alive, she was hurt just to keep me safe so I was ready to do anything to bring her back.And besides, I can't go back to Arizona now. I need a perfect plan to be able to catch the person who wants me dead and if I don't want to risk my children's life I have to be extra careful and not be in a rush to go back.I'm doing this for my children and my wolf. I encouraged myself to stay strong as Madam Gianna explained what was to be done to me.“What are the things that trigger your nightmare?”She asked me very early the following day after I had agreed to carry out whatever had to be done.“Confined room, dark room, deep waters, and whenever I'm in danger.”“What are the things you usually see in your dreams repeatedl
