Lorelei The days seem to fly by in a blur as I stay in Asher’s apartment. The nights only eased by Ashers presence beside me in bed his strong arms wrapped completely around me. Refusing to let me go even in sleep. After the first night of me waking up to nightmares Asher has been a constant presence in my bed. Just not in the way I used to always dream about.He even initiated multiple sleepovers with Eli. He would curl himself around me the big spoon to my little and have Eli curl against my front. Those were the nights I felt the safeties, the most secure.Yet my heart isn’t here anymore. I feel so numb to the world around me. I’m terrified most days to even open the blinds. I’m scared to look in the mirror. I can feel the difference inside of me. I am broken.The days are endless filled with fear and pain that break me in every way. I curl in a ball on the bed and cry. I can’t help the pain. I know I shouldn’t feel like a whiny bitch. I’m not the woman he killed. I’m j
. “He was murdered in a riot inside the prison he was being held in without bond.” I sat there feeling like I had been shot. He was gone...but how...no “You didn't?” I said softly refusing to voice my fear. “I should have done it myself that night, but you were more important.” “Tell me you didn’t have someone do that. Asher. Please.” “I’m not going to sit here and lie to you.” His eyes plead at me to understand. I want to understand I do, but I had told him not to do this. “Tell me you didn’t put Braylin in that position.” I whisper. She’s the only person I can think of who would have a contact that could kill someone even from prison. Her father's connections that she usually hates using but for friends like me I know she’d do it in a heartbeat. “Not going to lie to you baby girl. I would take on anyone to make sure you are safe.” He pulls me closer to him. My chest pressing against his. I can feel the rub of my
“Does it feel like I’m lying.” He growls. His fingers glide from my shoulders before digging into my hips. I shake my head. “Say it out loud.” he groans as he pulls me closer to his body. Not rubbing or suggestive movements but like he doesn’t want to let me go. Like touching me is his lifeline. “What?” I ask, biting my lip and focusing on the feel of him against me. I have never felt this before. Excluding the trauma James had brought to my body, I have never felt like someone was craving my body, needed just the feel of me against them to take their next breath. It was an intoxicating feeling. Overwhelming and terrifying. My brain was spinning trying to tell me that I needed to walk away, that this would lead to nothing but pain. That I should be ashamed that I felt arousal at his touch. “Look at yourself and tell yourself that you are perfect.” He growls into my ear. “No.” I whisper fighting myself, fighting him. He presses his lips a
Asher My eyes were locked on her. I could taste her skin on my lips when I rolled my tongue across them. Fuck, just the taste of her breasts was enough to make me weak. I grabbed the bottom of my Hennley and pulled it over my head. I smirked at the sound of her taking a deep breath as she took in my chest and stomach. I threw the shirt to the laundry basket and stood in front of her with confidence. I could tell from the change in her breathing she liked what she was. I lowered my lashes as I gripped the top of my sweats and boxers and started to push them down. I stopped when I heard her squeak, “What are you doing?” I grinned biting my lip as I pushed the top of my sweats down and my erection popped out, bouncing up against my stomach. “Getting in with you baby. What I want to do requires more than me reaching into a bathtub.” I grinned. I couldn’t wait to give her the pleasure she deserved. The p
Lorelei I woke up feeling safe for the first time in a long time. Last night changed everything. Feeling him touch me for the first time. having an orgasm not by my own hand for the first time, un-freaking'-believable. I curl myself deeper into his embrace. His arms tightened around me, and I could feel his breath gently blowing my hair. I open my eyes and look down at his arms around me and notice for the first time the tattoo running on the inside of his wrist. The tattoo is words that I could not decipher from this angle. I closed my eyes again and leaned back. I wanted nothing more than to turn over, wrap my legs around his hip and snuggle even closer with my face against his chest. But he would he notice that I was awake when I got there? I wondered to myself. I bite my lip and smile.I do it.I rollover quickly pressing my face against his chest, so he does not see that my eyes are open. I curl my leg over his hip, his morning wood pressing against the co
LoreleiHe pushes up. His hard body leaned over me. His beautiful green eyes flashing. “Don't you fucking dare ever say that you cause that insane man to choose to steal you away. He's the one that kidnapped you. You didn't ask for it. You never asked for his attention. You did not ask for this. But baby girl, I will do whatever it fucking takes to show you what you truly mean to me. But I will never let you go again. You are mine.”He leans over me. Pressing a kiss gently to my Temple. I sigh at the feel of his lips against my forehead.Biting my lip. “Ashton,” I say. “I don't want to wait anymore. I don't want to be scared anymore. I want to know. What true love really feels like? I have loved you. All of my life. And when you did what you did in high school.” I sniffle, wiping my eyes with the palm of my hand. “It broke me. How could somebody who supposedly was my friend? Hurt me so badly. And then I heard what your dad did. I saw, what he did two years later, to Aria when she came
Asher I pressed her face into my chest as I held her. “You are perfect for me.” I whispered. “I can’t believe how lucky I am to call you mine for the rest of our lives. To please you, to love you, to build you up. To show you every single day how amazing you are.” I couldn’t stop my hands from running gently against her curves as I felt her body still shuddering from the intense orgasms I had drawn from her body. I know I had given her hell before the kidnapping, but it was all to lead to this. I needed her at every moment of the day. My heart felt complete for the first time. I felt like I hadn’t been breathing until she finally agreed to be mine forever. Being the Beta of the biggest pack in America hadn’t prepared me for wanting to do everything in my power to make Lori mine. I had helped pass new laws; I had fought to bring down out enemies. I had taken out my father and now James. But none of it prepared me for how amazing it felt when she agreed to be mine. I didn’t want her
LoriI woke up alone, and for a brief second I was terrified that I was back in that place until I remembered that Asher had saved me, I was with Asher. I wasn’t alone. I sat up and rushed to the bathroom. Doing my business quickly, I threw my long hair up in a messy bun before going into the kitchen where I found Asher sitting at the counter on his laptop.He quickly turned around and smiled at me, spreading his legs and motioning for me to come closer.I bit my lip then rushed over to him, sighing and my shoulders relaxing as his arms wrapped around me and he brushed his face against my hair.“Hey sweet girl,” he murmured, “I was just about to come check on you. I wanted to show you something.”I licked my lips and pulled back, “Was last night real?” I asked, my eyes darting between his.He leaned down and pressed a kiss to my lips. I whined when he stopped causing him to smile, “Yes, you finally agreed to be my mate, which thank god you did, my wolf has been going crazy because you
