I stood there with my mouth gaped open in surprise. “What do you mean Asher accepted the Alpha position in Cody?” I asked, facing Asher with anxiety building in the pit of my stomach at the thought of him leaving again.
Asher stared at me blankly, which showed he was not ready to tell me about this news just yet. “I have not accepted the title yet. I told them I needed time to talk with you,” He explained while he glared towards his father and brought his glance back to me, reaching for my hand, but I pulled away.
“Why would you even consider accepting it? This is your pack and has been your home since you were born. Why would you choose a pack you barely know?” I questioned showing my resentment.
He placed the palm of his hand on my rosy cheek. “Please, can we talk about th
AsherThe ball was in full swing, and I had talked to my mother, telling her what happened. She forgave me easily and made me promise never to do it again.Chloe came over with a smile. “I always knew,” She said, pulling me into a hug as she pulled back. “Congratulations,” She added.Eliana ran over, out of breath. “Hey, where is Paisley? I have been calling her and texting for over an hour, and no answer,” She explained, concern in her tone.I narrowed my eyes, confused. “She was outside on the patio. I know she has her phone. That seems odd that she wouldn’t answer,” I replied, searching the crowd but no sign of her.Chloe searched the room for Malachi when she spotted him near the bar talkin
After trying for an hour, I gave up on calling my wolf. I slumped down on the floor, placing my head in my hands when the floor upstairs creaked. The steps moved quickly, and the sound disappeared, but then the door clicked, and I jumped. What am I going to do?I had no time to react because the door swung open, and a large man about 7 feet tall walked in sporting a douchebag smirk.I hurried to my feet because I had no chance of fighting him off on the floor. He came towards me. “Stop! stay away from me, you goofy-looking bastard!” I shouted. He obviously took offense to the bastard or goofy looking, not sure which offended him more, but that was not important right now.The man rushed at me. I tried to run, but there was no escape. He grabbed me by the ha
After dinner, Zade walked me back to the room. I was still in shock from what Nico told me. This man is sick. He was my dad’s age and wanted to keep a seventeen-year-old for his pleasure. Ugh, gross. I gagged.When we came to the door, Zade opened it, and I just stood there. “Well, go in,” he said, annoyed.I faced him and rolled my eyes. “You know your boss is a child molester?” I asked, and he narrowed his eyes.“And?” He laughed.“That doesn’t bother you?” I countered.Zade shrugged. “Not my business. He pays me to keep my mouth shut and do my job.”
I locked myself in the restroom, hoping Zade would leave me alone, but he stayed there for hours. I didn’t understand why he would care if I am mad or think he was a monster. He was the right-hand man to a mafia douche bag.“Come on, Pais, unlock the door,” Zade begged.“GO AWAY!” I shouted back. “And you don’t get to give me a nickname,” I added.“Nope, not going anywhere, and I can do this all day,” He returned.I rolled my eyes, clearly tired of his games. “Don’t you have someone else to torture like people that owe you money or something?” I asked, annoyed.I heard him chuckle through the door. “Nah, Nico had some business to attend to and
AsherHalfway to Russia, my anxiety had built to an all-time high. I sat, bouncing my leg with my eyes closed, taking deep breaths.“Hey,” Chloe voiced, taking a seat nearby.I sat up respectfully. “Hey Chloe, sorry, I’m just really nervous,” I admitted while biting my nails.Chloe placed her hand over mine to stop my fidgeting. “We will find her, paisley is smart, and she has her mother’s will to live,” she comforted me.I gave her a slight smile. “Thank you, Chloe.”Chloe gave me one last smile, then went back to Hunter in the front.“Asher, come on, we have to start a plan, and we still ha
With my lips locked on Zade’s, my entire being wanted every ounce of him. I had never felt this in my life, not even with Asher.A moan escaped me, and Zade gripped my hips, pulling me against his manhood, and I bit his bottom lip softly. When we pulled apart, I whined at our distance. We stared into each other’s eyes as if we could see into our souls.“Pais, I think we should stop. I don’t want to do something you will regret,” Zade sighed.I brought my hand up to caress his cheek. “Tell me you don’t feel the pull between us, and I will walk away,” I announced. Zade stared at me but avoided the question. “Exactly, I want this,” I whispered.Zade quickly picked me up, not hesitating, and I wrapped my legs around
I stood there in shock to see my entire family, including my mate, standing before me. But as I faced Asher again, he was bright red, almost as if he was going to blow a gasket, and I looked down to my hand still holding Zade’s.Shit, well, this got awkward fast.I let go of Zade, and he looked around confused. “Pais, who are these people?” he questioned, then quickly realized as Asher stepped forward. “Ah, you are the mate,” he added.Asher rushed at Zade, tackling him to the ground. They rolled around like school kids fighting on the playground. But Zade, of course, being more mature and having Lycan blood coursing through his veins, got the upper hand.“Calm down, kid,” Zade ordered.
Asher and I ran forever, it seemed, when we stopped taking a breather. I doubled over, catching my breath, and when I finally could talk, I turned to face Asher.“I never planned on hurting you. I am sorry,” I apologized.He looked down to his feet for a second, then back up. “I just want you to be happy, Paisley,” He replied.I smiled. “Thank you.”We both turned quickly as we heard footsteps behind us, and when I turned around, I found my little brother standing there out of breath.“Hunter, what the hell are you doing?” I snapped, grabbing him by his arm. “You can’t be here. It’s too dangerous,” I proclaimed.
