Chapter 0006

ASHER

The sounds of flesh slapping against each other filled my room and I moaned out in pleasure, willing myself into the intoxicating feeling of the good sex I was enjoying.

I moaned again, this time, in almost the same rhythm as that of the lady under me who was on the mission of burying her claws inside my back, and I increased the pace with which I thrust into her to match her energy.

This was what I had turned to since Adeline toyed with my feelings -a king who pays hookers to see himself as a man.

“Argh!” She screamed with a pleasure filled voice and a smug of satisfaction appeared on my face.

A knock came and the door to the room, almost immediately the door pushed open.

I flashed a quick glance at the door to see Gaston stepping inside, and I chewed my teeth in anger, “whatever do you need now, Gaston?”

“Sorry to disturb you, Alpha Asher but, this is a very crucial matter, you must know now that the doctor has arrived.”

I collapsed on top of the girl on hearing Gaston's voice before slowly rolling off her to fall on the bed with my heart threatening to fall out of my chest while glaring at Gaston, who lowered his eyes to avoid my gaze.

Someone disturbing me while I was having my fun was one of the things I hated, and Gaston of all people knew that.

The lady, slipped out of the bed and walked into the bathroom without caring to cover up, and I put on a robe before climbing down the bed.

“But, you must also know Alpha that there is a little bit of a problem.”

I paused, waiting to hear more but, Gaston was not giving it.

“In the name of the moon goddess, Gaston, can you just say what the problem is.” I snapped and led the way out of the room, leaving Gaston to follow behind.

“The doctor is a mother and her kids were kidnapped alongside her.”

I paused in my tracks and turned sharply to Gaston," what do you mean by you brought her kids? What am I supposed to do with them?”

“We had no choice but to take them too and besides, the children were of much help, we used one of them to lure here to us.”

“How many kids are we talking about here?”

Gaston gulped, “three,” he muttered, and I sighed and headed for the dungeon -where I had informed them to keep her- to meet the lady who had dared to go against me, swearing under my breath to make her regret wasting my time waiting for her.

As we walked towards the dungeon, I felt beads of sweat begin to form on my forehead with some rolling down the sides of my face as Storm, turned and howled restlessly within me.

My breath turned fast and heavy as though I had run throughout the whole pack a thousand times, and I paused in my track to catch my breath.

“Are you okay, Alpha?” Gaston asked, and I nodded as I continued on my path, but, Storm's restless jumping inside of me told me that I was not in any way okay.

I wiped the beads of sweat off my face with the back of my palm before stepping into the dungeons and a strong scent of lavender filled my nose, welcoming me in.

“Did you prepare this place for her?” I asked Gaston with furrowed brows, and he shook his head with even more furrowed brows.

“We didn't prepare a room for her, either.”

“Then what's this scent I perceive?” I asked, ignoring his statement. I didn't care about her comfort, I did, though, I cared about her comfort before she decided to toy with my authority.

“A scent?” He asked and sniffled around us, sending down much air into his lungs, “the scent of blood?”

That was what I was supposed to perceive as the dungeon was not a friendly place, but, my nose gave me an even friendlier scent.

“Lavender.” I muttered, but, Gaston's ears didn't miss the word.

Storm howled at the mention of 'lavender' and, as if being drawn by a propelling force, I quickened down the dungeon and stopped when I heard tiny fear-filled voices.

'Mate,' Storm, howled as soon as stopped in front of the doctor who was kneeling with her hands bound behind her and a bag over her head but, her bondage didn't stop her as she tried to fight off the two men that were holding her down.

Her three boys were clutching unto her like their lives depending on it, streams of tears rolling down their cheeks.

Mate? I asked rhetorically. What did storm mean by that? And was she the reason he was being so jumpy?

'Mate.' Strom, howled louder. A wave of thick cold air passed through me and I shivered as beads of sweat began to appear on my face and arms.

Such irony, I know, and I was more than surprised by that.

“Take off the cloth, now,” I said to one of the warriors with a snap of my finger, and they both let go of her and began untying her.

I wanted to see the woman who had this much effect on me, this much effect on Storm. I slapped away the hand losing the bag over her head and began untying it myself.

This was a matter of life and death, and any little delay could lead to my death.

Literally, I could die from my curiosity and the effect of the storm's over excitement.

I pulled off the bag and dragged the other man with the touch closer, and my jaw dropped to the ground out of shock as the light fell on her face.

She was the doctor? How was she the doctor? Heck! How was she my mate? And those were her children? So many questions ran through my mind and I needed answers to all of them immediately, especially the one that would answer how she was my mate.

“Sophia?” I muttered. I had wanted to ask her all the questions going through my head, but, her name was the only thing I could say. The shock and surprise obviously had me overwhelmed.

“Kidnapping me, huh? Could you go any more lower, dear Alpha?”

She despises me, I know. The hate was very obvious in her voice.

I shifted my gaze to the three boys by her side. Her children? She was married now, and with kids?

My Sophia...

Sophia, my childhood sweetheart whom I had abandoned for the sake of a bloody woman who fucking betrayed me at the end was back. Not just as anybody, but the doctor I needed to save my kingdom, and as my...my mate?
