Raven's POV

I snuggle into the warmth of a body, breathing in his scent, letting it calm me.

The activities of yesterday and everything that happened comes rushing down on me.

I suddenly remember everything, the yelling, the hurtful words thrown at each other.

I jolted awake, sitting up in bed, my movement cause Asher to stir in his sleep. I look down at his sleeping form.

He snuggles the pillow closer to himself, breathing it in. Shaking my head at him, I get up from bed and pad to the bathroom.

As I was leaving the bathroom, I heard the sound of his voice. “Yes, yes, that's okay, I'll check it out and get back to you.” He says.

I guess he's on the phone. Paying no mind to any of his business, I entered the bedroom, avoiding eye contact with him.

I could feel his eyes tracing my every move but I refuse to acknowledge it or him.

“Raven, Raven come in, you can't keep ignoring me anytime we have a disagreement.”

I don't respond, I dey my hair and change into my clothes. Staring at the

    Asher's POV I was in the control room with Lucian, Liam and Derek when we heard Raven's panic button go off.The room fell silent. “Shit! What's going on?” I asked no one in particular “Do you have eyes on her inside the cell? Why would she press the panic button?” I asked Lucian.He typed away on his system, I kept pacing back and forth in the room, Raven's emotions were all over.I felt the sudden spike in her heart rate. Fear. Something bad is happening.“Come on Lucian, speak to me.” I urged him.“Here, she's not in her brother's cell.” He said, showing me the footage of the cell.“Check around, check all the wings, everywhere. She must be somewhere.” I said panicking.I tried reaching out to her, trying to communicate with her but she didn't respond.Her heart rate drops suddenly. She's unconscious.“Dale, Liam, come with me now to the dungeon, someone had knocked her unconscious. Let's go”. I commanded.“I'll inform you if I see anything or notice movements.” Lucian calls out

    Raven's POV I jolt awake, feeling disoriented, my head aches as I try to move. My legs and hands are tied together, preventing me from moving.Shit! Where am I? Who took me? And are we moving?I try to check my surroundings, but the space I'm in is so small, it looks like the trunk of a van.I'm in a moving van. Oh no! I've been kidnapped. Realization dawns on me on the situation I found myself in now.Asher! I need to tell him where I am, he must be worried about looking for me.But how can I tell him where I am when I can't even see. Nevertheless, I trace our connection.It hurts a t first, probably because of what I was injected with. But with the help of my wolf, I'm able to get to him “Asher, Asher.” I call softly. Asher's reply came immediately. “Ih thank the goddess Raven.” I wine a little as he speaks, it hurts in my head and a wave of dizziness threatens to pull me under.I clench my teeth, fighting hard to stay conscious. “Where are you? What happened?” He asked frantic

Torren comes over, placing a piece of cloth in my mouth, sealing my lips.I shout but it sounds muffled. “They are here, take her away and don't forget—” a look passes between them.Don't forget what? What are they planning to do to me?Torren loses the rope binding my legs, pulling me to my feet with my hair. I grunt out.“Move bitch.” He growled out, pulling me with him. I try to steel my feet, hoping to see Asher but Torren doesn't let me, he keeps dragging me away.I see Axton lay out some weapons before I'm finally pulled away from his view.We move deeper into the forest and stop at one point.The night air crackled with tension, fear of the unknown. Torren rips out the clothing from my mouth with force, causing me to wince in pain.I swallowed the knot in my throat, looking all around us in fear. T

    Asher's POVFrom the movement Raven told me it was a trap set by Axton and Torren, I became cautious.I knew Axton had taken her but I didn't know he had someone with him too.Torren Shade, Raven's ex. Lucian had him investigated on our way and sent all his details to me.He was the lying and cheating ex who betrayed Raven. My guess is that he wants Raven to pay for leaving him.The bastard's not going to beg for mercy when I'm done with him. Raven's hurt, I can feel it.Axton, that motherfucker, I should have made sure he died in the building.“What's the plan now?” Dale asked as we neared the location on the tracker.“We go all in but be very cautious. It's a trap meant to lure me in and kill me and I'm sure it won't be easy.”“Then we stay alert and move as one.” Derek says, cocking his gun and checking the bullets.Luckily we still had some silver bullets we took from Alpha Nicholas guards during the last attack.“Okay, let's bring this motherfucker down once and for all.” Dale gr

    Asher's POV Arianna and King have been attending to Raven since we got back home.She looked so pale now, marks and bruises covered all her body. I could see the mark of a footprint on her stomach and rib cage.Those motherfuckers, I should have dragged out their death, made them suffer more before killing them for hurting my mate like this.I keep pacing back and forth in the room. Raven is deadly still and it scares me.“Alpha, I would need you to excuse us. Your pacing back and forth is distracting.” Arianna tells me.“I'm sorry, I'm just anxious and worried. She…she's not moving.” I muttered.“She'll be fine, we are doing our job but we can't keep getting distracted by you packing around, back and forth.” She gives me a stern look.I n9d my head, raising my hands in the air. *I'll excuse you, but I'll be right outside the door if you need me.“Thank you” she says, gesturing to the door for me to leave.I leave the room with Arianna slamming the door behind me.

Asher tushes over to my side, trying to tell me something, I can't hear him but I see his mouth moving.It seemed like air was being sucked out of me. I struggle to breathe at the moment.“Raven, Raven, Raven!” Asher snaps and yells in my face. I turn to look at him.“That's it,” He says. “Just look at me and breathe with me. In…out, okay, just like that.” I follow his steps, breathing in and out until enough air gets into my lungs and I can finally breathe well.“Very good, you're doing well.” He commends with a sad smile.My brother, Bryon, is dead. “No, not Bryon. Bryon isn't dead. He's still waiting for me.” I say, hysterical.I try to get out of bed but as soon as my legs touch the ground, I stagger on my feet.

If he had only believed me when I told him Bryon was innocent.If he had trusted me enough and let my brother go, he wouldn't be dead now. My brother would still be alive by now, here with me.” I yell.I keep pacing back and forth the room, raking my fingers through my hair. Asher walks up to me slowly but I back away from him. “I can't, I can't right now. I can't do this anymore, Asher.”“What're you saying Raven? What do you mean by "you can't do this anymore?” He asks, breathing heavily.I shake my head, slowly drawing farther away from him.“It hurts too much. Everytime I see you,

You need to take your bath now.” I chuckled as Matilda chased Bryon round the house.At two, he was a force to reckon with, always full of mischief and trouble.He was really a handful, thanks to his godfathers and godmother who kept spoiling him and teaching him all the mischievous things he does, most especially Dale.Asher walked in with Dale behind him.“Da.” Bryon screamed, running towards him. Asher bent down and scooped him up.“Hey my little Alpha. How are you doing?” He asked and Bryon blew bubbles on his face and giggled.“Your boy is really a handful.” Matilda said to Asher, putting her hands on her waist.“Is that true? Have you been giving Matilda a tough time now, hmm?” He asked Bryon who just pouted back.Bryon turns to Derek. “Der.” He says, pointing at Matilda. He's reporting her to him. Derek just laughed, stroking his hair.“Play, play, play.” He chants, trying to wiggle down from Asher's arms.“Okay, o

That's so thoughtful of him. I mean, Bryon was your little brother who Isla killed and he was the only member of your family that truly loved and cared about you.Asher did a good thing naming your son after him.” Maya said with a smile on her face.“Yeah, I wasn't expecting him to name our son after my brother but he did it for me and I'm so happy.For every time I look into my son's eyes, I'll always remember my little brother.” I said with a sad smile.Maya turned to my sleeping son in the cradle. “Hello little Bryon. You're so cute.” She says, rubbing his chubby cheeks.I smiled at them. “Dale's going to blow a fuse when he learns of the baby's name.” Maya said, happy with the decision made.I burst out laughing. “He will get over it, after all I'm already making him and Derek his godfathers

It was just me, Maya, Matilda, Arianna and king here with Raven.Maya is bent on her other side, wiping away the sweat from entering her eyes and encouraging her.Raven kept pushing.

Don't give up now, you're doing it, darling and I'm so proud of you.” I said, smoothing her hair away from her face.“I know you're tired, but you're doing a great job.

You know exactly what I'm talking about.Everyone saw you two leave the party early yesterday. What was it for, hmm?” She asked, sitting on the floor with her legs folded under her butt.“I was just tired last night and asked Asher to take me back to the house, that's all.” I said.

You are so good at this, Asher.” She said, closing her eyes to enjoy the feeling.“Of course, I'm good at anything I set my eyes and hands to do. That's why I'm the best.” I said with a smug look.“Yeah, yeah, you're the best, we know it. No need to sound so smug about it.” She said, rolling her eyes at me.I gestured to her orange juice by her side, she still hadn't finished it yet.“Finish your juice, at least for now.” I said.“But I'm stuffed already, I don't want to.” She whined.I cocked my brow at her and inclined my head, an expression that screamed you have to.With a huff, she picked up the glass and downed the entire juice like it was a shot of tequila.“There.

    Asher’s POVI stopped dead in my tracks taking in the sight of Raven.She stood there in the white sleeved dress, flowing down to her ankle.She stood there looking like a Greek goddess, with those little gold trimmings accentuating the design of the dress.Her white creamy skin tanned to match with her blond hair and gave her skin a healthy glow.She had her hair bunched up in some kind of elegant updo that looked tousled with a few strands falling down the sides.She was breathtakingly beautiful and even my wolf growled in appreciation.She stared at me with that heated look in her eyes that made me want to claim her right here.If not for the audience we have, I would have had her bent over and fucked her thoroughly.I crossed to her with a smile on my face, sliding my arm around her.“You are sensationally beautiful, your beauty shines in the dark and radiates all around us. Sorry, I'm a bit late.” I whispered into her ear.She looked up at me with a smile on her face. “Thank you.

I understand, no need to apologize.” He assured me in a soothing tone.“How's my baby boy doing today? I didn't get to talk to him this morning before I left.” He asked and I smiled.“He's doing fine, at least he has made his presence known to me today so many times with the force of his kicks. I wonder where he gets so much strength from. I mean he's just a little kid, and it hurts a lot.” I said, wincing again as he kicked me.“Sorry, baby. It proves that our boy will be very strong and capable just like his mother.”“Me? Nope. I'm not that strong. He takes after you in strength. You're the one who's strong.” “Fine then.
