Asher:

After Sophia's delusional outburst, she locked herself up in her bedroom and wasn’t seen for the rest of the day, which was a goddamn relief.

I contemplated for a while how it was even possible for one she-wolf to overpower two of what Sophia claimed were the best warriors her father had.

That was impossible, so either Sophia had gone insane or, as usual, she was trying to discredit Aphrodite in my presence, which, to be realistic, was impossible because she was already perfect in my eyes.

The idea that Aphrodite could be capable of such violence was absurd, yet the image of Sophia's terrified face haunted me.

It was almost time for my scheduled meeting with Hilda. If I were being honest, I hated the thought of seeing the vermin who tried to kill my mate without taking action. My wolf howled for me to end her existence. It angered me, but I had to remain civil for Matilda's sake. The thought of her always seemed to calm me, if only a little.

There was a knock on my office door,

  • Mated to the Devil Alpha    Because You Are Mine

    Aphrodite The next few days were surprisingly peaceful, as Sophia wouldn't even breathe the same air as me or be in the same room.It was quite hilarious watching her unravel because of the fear I'd instilled in her. Her reaction was entertaining, but she remained obstinate.I guess showing her a glimpse of what I was really capable of wasn't enough to have her packing and running back to whatever hole she'd crawled out of.The first face that greeted me when I opened my bedroom door that morning was Hilda's. I was momentarily petrified in shock, but quickly shook it off when she smiled cunningly at me before walking off with a feather duster in hand.A barrel of questions swarmed my head about how it was possible she was back in the mansion. Maybe I had overestimated how much Asher cared about me or the significance of everything Hilda had done to me in the past.I marched towards his office, hurt blooming in my chest at the thought that he had brought her back here despite everythi

    Aphrodite:The evening of Asher's anniversary ball was a whirlwind of activity, with caterers and decorators bustling around the mansion, making last-minute preparations before the guests arrived.Lara and I were in our bedroom, sifting through dozens of dresses delivered by Asher's personal designer. It wasn't surprising that he had a personal designer—he was the king, after all—but I somehow kept forgetting that detail.My goodness, my mate was the king.The dresses were all stunning, making it hard to choose just one, but eventually I settled on a shimmering grey evening gown with a vine-like lace bodice that flared down from the waist."So, Lara, I take it George is your date for the ball?" I murmured, twirling in front of the mirror. She smiled sheepishly, trying to hide her reddened face behind her makeup palette."He asked, and I said yes," she replied after a moment, returning to the finishing touches of her makeup."He's been a wonderful mate to me, Aphrodite," she said dream

    AphroditeThere was an eerie silence in the restroom as I tried to compose myself before facing Asher at the party. The necklace he'd gifted me had been taken away forcefully, and I wasn't sure how he'd react.I sighed in relief as I stared at my reflection in the mirror. The fire-like sensation under my skin seemed like a figment of my imagination now, but I knew better. It was real, and it only stopped when Hilda disappeared with the necklace.I picked up my purse and exited the restroom, knowing I'd been gone for far too long. As I walked back into the party, my eyes searched for Hilda, but I sighed when I couldn't spot her and headed back to Asher's table.As I approached the table, I found George and Asher in deep conversation while Lara sat by herself, sipping champagne. Her eyes lit up when I took the seat beside her.“What happened? You're red in the face,” she asked, her brows furrowing in worry as she scanned my face.I laughed nervously, waving off her concerns. "Oh, it's n

  • Mated to the Devil Alpha    A Cruel Game

    AsherI trudged up the stairs towards my bedroom, angry at myself for not being able to protect my mate—not yet, at least.Loosening my tie in frustration, I turned the knob to my bedroom door but paused when I sensed someone else inside. I growled and pushed the door open with force, my nostrils flaring as I barged in.I stopped short in the middle of the room when I found Hilda sprawled out on my carpet, coughing up blood and clutching her neck. I rushed to her side without thinking and fell to my knees beside her, holding her up.“Hilda!” I barked, shaking her shoulder. She kept clutching her neck like she was choking, and as I looked closer, I recognised Aphrodite's necklace around her neck, now covered in blood.How did she get her hands on Aphrodite's necklace? Did she pick it up somewhere? I wasn't sure what to think anymore.“Who did this to you?” I panicked, picking her up in my arms without wasting a second and rushing out of my bedroom and down the stairs.“Asher.” Aphrodit

  • Mated to the Devil Alpha    Faith or Foolishness?

    Aphrodite I stood in a corner of Hilda's hospital room, watching silently as Matilda gently tended to her unconscious daughter. It was a shame and quite unfortunate that Hilda had to bear the brunt of Sophia's schemes, but I wouldn't say she didn't entirely deserve it.It would be cruel of me to find happiness in another person's death, but I still couldn't bring myself to feel sympathy for the woman who tried to kill me.Asher had been gone for quite some time, and I was beginning to wonder if he'd left me all alone in the pack hospital, still wearing the same dress I'd had on all night.Frankly, I was exhausted, and all I could think about was tearing off this dress and enjoying a long, hot shower before reacquainting myself with my bed. But I couldn't leave Matilda all alone.Even though we'd just met, I had taken a liking to the kind old woman. It was quite unbelievable that Hilda, who I could have sworn was the spawn of the devil, was her daughter.The door was pushed open rathe

  • Mated to the Devil Alpha    VIP Cell

    Aphrodite After our talk, Asher decided he couldn't leave me in that cell, as it was unfit. So, he suggested I be taken to a VIP cell.I was shocked that such a thing even existed, but when I saw it for myself, I understood why it was called that, although he wouldn't tell me exactly why it even existed in the first place.It was a cosy room with a small square window, a heavy metal door, a bed, a heater, and a little bathroom attached. He brought extra blankets, clothes, food, and water, so I was comfortable.Everything was moving so fast, and I still knew nothing of the reason he put me in here, but I was at ease knowing that everything he was doing was with pure intentions.My first night in the VIP cell, I could hardly sleep. I tossed and turned the whole night and was only able to catch up on sleep in the early hours of the morning.I was flipping through a book Asher had brought me that morning when I heard the sound of footsteps outside my cell door. I perked up, closing the b

    Aphrodite “Asher,” I murmured when his fingers skimmed over my naked back as he pulled the zipper down painfully slowly.His gaze darkened when I practically melded my body against his, unwilling to let go. I was acting like a bitch in heat, but I simply didn't care; his touch seemed to quench the fire that was burning fervently on my skin.I pulled the sleeve of my dress down and let it fall over my shoulder, needing to feel his skin against mine. Asher inhaled sharply, his gaze lingering desperately on my skin. I wish it were his lips.The pad of his fingers skimmed over my shoulder blade, but he quickly shook his head, pulling the sleeve of my dress back over my shoulder and cupping my face in both hands as he leaned his forehead against mine.I moaned at the skin-to-skin contact, sighing in relief when the fire-like sensation decreased.“Please,” I begged, clinging onto him just to feel the relief of his skin against mine.The sound of heavy footsteps made him snap his attention

    AsherI blinked my eyes open, adjusting to the ray of sunlight streaming in through the little square window high up on the wall to my right.My gaze slowly drifted down to the woman snoring softly in my arms. Her warmth was a blessing I'd longed for and hoped to feel ever since I met her, and now that it was finally a reality, I couldn't be happier.My wolf howled in happiness that we'd finally completed the mating process, but our joy turned sour when I recalled her last words to me last night.Her cruel rejection, even after making love to her, made my heart ache, and my wolf whimpered in shared pain. I had hoped that our bond would be enough, that mating would strengthen it, and that she would finally accept me. But my mate was so stubborn that she refused, turning the sweetness of our union into a bitter reminder of her reluctance."Maybe we should mark her against her will," my wolf growled suggestively deep within my subconscious. "Then she would have no choice but to stay with

    Aphrodite I finished up my work for the day and walked out of my office, shutting the door behind me before heading down the corridor to Lara's office. I found her arranging the open files sprawled haphazardly on her desk. She smiled when she saw me walk in, and I returned it with a wave.“Are you ready?” I asked, leaning against the door frame with a raised brow.“Yep,” she replied, stacking the last file in its place in the cabinet. She picked up her handbag and rounded her desk, and I walked out with Lara in tow. I nodded at the security on my way out, and we headed to our parked car.“We should drop by the mall on the way; there's something I want to get,” she said. I arched my brow at her but mumbled an "okay" before pulling out of the driveway.I glanced at my side mirror, noting the tinted SUV filled with pack warriors trailing behind us for security. I rolled my eyes and looked away, but said nothing. Even though I wasn't comfortable with the entourage, I understood it was fo

  • Mated to the Devil Alpha    Human

    Aphrodite: The past week with Asher has been spent in ignorant bliss. Despite the threat looming over my head, it took a while to come to terms with the fact that I literally had a bounty on my head. Asher's presence and support helped me momentarily forget about it. I dropped the book I'd been staring at absent-mindedly and walked into the open bathroom. Asher glanced at me when I walked in and smiled before looking back in the mirror, proceeding to drag a razor down his jawline, which was covered with shaving foam. “Let me,” I mumbled, taking the blade from his hand. He conceded, his hand snaking around my waist and pulling me flush against his chest. I stood on my tiptoes and planted a kiss on his lips before reaching up and gently dragging the razor across his jawline. I rinsed it under the running tap and repeated the process. “I have to go into work today,” I murmured, watching his reflection as his brows furrowed in concern. “So soon?” he asked, and I chuckled, nodding slo

    Asher I narrowed my eyes at him, but his gaze was fixed on my mate, staring at her with a condescending air. It made my blood boil with anger, but I held back from lashing out. I bit down on my tongue so hard that I tasted blood and clenched my fists until they turned white.“She’s not a bitch, Father. She’s my mate. Show some respect,” I growled, my eyes flashing with anger.Father's gaze flicked to our joined hands, his expression hardening at the sight of my mother's ring on Aphrodite's finger.“Respect? You threw away a perfectly good alliance for her,” he sneered, taking a slow drag from his cigar.“What you did yesterday has cost us an important alliance, and the only way you would marry this woman is over my dead body,” he seethed, and I scoffed.“Look at her. She was your matchmaker, and now she's your mate,” he chuckled dryly, his eyes devoid of mirth.“I don't smell her rank. Are you sure she's not just a conniving bitch using you for your power?” He snapped, his eyes zeroi

    Aphrodite I sat by my windowsill, staring into the mysterious woods that remained undisturbed by the ills of this world. The tree branches swayed gently in the wind, which caressed my cheeks.I sighed in contentment as I inhaled the sweet morning air, the rays of sunshine casting a warm glow over my fingers resting on the rim of the window.I jumped in surprise when droplets of water fell over my skin and gasped, turning back to see a wet Asher smiling down at me. He had a white towel wrapped around his waist while his dark hair dripped water over his hard chest as he hovered over me.I squealed when he shook his head again, droplets from his hair spraying across my face.“Asher,” I whined playfully, and he chuckled, leaning down and pulling my body flush against his.“You're going to get me wet,” I complained, and he smirked down at me mischievously.“Am I? Can I see for myself?” He rumbled in a deep baritone that sent heat travelling down south instantly, and I gasped.“Not here,”

    Aphrodite I sighed contentedly as I admired the soft glow of the moon from my open window, its milky rays spilling across the windowsill, and the steady rhythm of Asher's heartbeat lulled me towards sleep.He held me so close, his fingers drawing lazy circles on my back as I stared ahead, deep in thought.“You're curious, aren't you? I know you have so many questions. I can feel it through our bond,” he murmured. I blinked slowly, clearing the haze of my thoughts, and looked up at him with my chin resting on his broad chest. He stared down at me, waiting for my response.“Yes. I'm curious how you found out I was a Devil Wolf and about the low possibility of me having children,” I murmured. He hummed, swallowing as he held me closer.“I suspected for a while," he began softly, "but I only found out when Sophia poisoned your necklace.” I gasped in realisation of his words; that must be why the poison didn't do as much damage as it did to Hilda.He paused, brushing a strand of hair away

    Aphrodite My mother went down on her knees in front of Asher, to my utter surprise and to Asher's horror.“Mom, what are you doing?!” I gasped, trying to reach for her, but she dodged my outstretched arm and clutched Asher's dress pants over his knee.“I beg of you, King Asher, don't hurt my daughter,” she cried desperately. The sight of my mother kneeling and begging for my life broke my heart into a million pieces.“Please!” she whimpered. “I... I will do anything!” she stuttered desperately. "It's all my fault. If only I hadn't persuaded her into seducing you, this wouldn't have happened. Please kill me instead, but don't hurt my daughter. She is still young and has her whole life ahead of her. Yes, she is a Devil Wolf, but I swear, my baby girl isn't a monster," she lamented.Asher, who had been stunned into silence the whole time, crouched down to her level, his gaze levelling with hers. He reached out, gently taking my mother's trembling hands in his."Mrs. Johnson,” he began,

    Aphrodite I walked into the house through the back door, still a little shaken from my encounter with the strange black wolf that seemed eerily familiar yet unfamiliar at the same time. As I stepped into the living room, my gaze locked with Asher's, and I froze on the spot.He said he wouldn't chase after me again.I blinked rapidly to ensure it was actually Asher seated in my freaking living room, casually sipping orange juice, and not just my eyes playing tricks on me. But sure as hell, it was real."What the hell are you doing here?" I snapped, closing the distance between us, but my mom intervened, stopping me halfway."Is that any way to welcome your guest?" my mom scolded, and I pinned her with an incredulous stare. Meanwhile, Asher continued sipping his orange juice quietly, with a smug smile painted on his face."But Mom—" She cut me off immediately, shooing me away into the kitchen."Go on, prepare something for him while I keep him company," she whispered. I gave her an are

    AsherI lied.I lied when I threatened never to go after her again because the moment Aphrodite walked out that door, I knew I couldn't let her go. What a fool I was to think I could.I went after her, cursing under my breath, when a server almost ran into me at the doorway. His eyes widened when he saw the mess behind me, but before he could say a word, I reached into the pocket of my dress pants and slapped a couple of hundred-dollar bills into his hand.He was stunned, but I ignored him and hurried down to catch up with her. By the time I got out of the restaurant, she was nowhere to be seen.I cussed, running my fingers through my hair and pulling at the roots in frustration. I stood there for a while before walking towards my parked car, dejectedly unlocking it, and then zooming off towards the mansion, hoping to fuck some sense to Aphrodite if needed.The idea of spanking her and spreading her legs open on my office table seemed like a fitting punishment after what she had done

    Aphrodite "I'll be right back, sir," I muttered under my breath as I unintentionally slammed the taxi door hard behind me and stomped up the stairs to my bedroom, tears blurring my vision.A sob threatened to break free through my throat, but I gritted my teeth, holding back the flood. I pushed the door open, ignoring Lara's gasp of surprise, and rushed into the walk-in closet.I yanked my already packed suitcase, almost bumping into Lara as I turned. She grabbed my shoulders to stop me from leaving. A worried expression marred her soft features, and her gaze searched my glossy eyes while I bit down hard on my tongue to curb the sobs that were at the threshold of my throat."Are you sure you can cope?" she asked softly. "Can you really bear to live without him? You know how strong the mate bond is." Her expression shifted to one of pity, and I shook my head, steeling my resolve."I have to, for his sake and mine," I murmured, sniffing. She nodded slowly, pulling me into a comforting
