Asher's POVJust rounding up breakfast when Raven's call came through. Shocked at first seeing her call but immediately picked it up.The sound of her breathing on the line and the gentle whisper of her voice when she said my name, brought some kind of relief to me.I knew Raven calling me meant something's up, she must have something she wants to tell me.But, when I asked, she didn't say anything. The voice of her friend, a woman, broke off our discussion and our call ended.I tried calling back but it didn't go through. This had me worried about what it is she wanted to tell me.Is she okay? She didn't sound like she was in trouble or hurt. She sounded like—“Who was it? Was that Raven?” Derek asks.“Yes, it was.”“What happened? Is she coming back home?” Dale asks, his eyes filled with hope. I shake my head.“Oh!” He says, disappointed.“Why did she call then?” Derek asked again.“I don't know, she didn't tell me and when I asked, she got distracted and dropped the call.” I explai

Asher's POV Edward was in the same position as Alpha Jackson when we walked in. Spread wide like an eagle. He had bruises on his face and some on his hands.He must have struggled with the guards and they had to subdue him, giving him those bruises.He looked up at us, as we approached. I took a seat on the chair close to him, Derek and Dale both leaning on the wall.“I guess you've come to torture me some more, right?” He sneered at me.I tilt my head to the side, assessing him. He's trying to put on a tough front but failing miserably at it.I can feel the tension rolling off him, the way he shivers at my gaze and the slight trembling of his legs.“You know, looking at you now, you don't seem all that tough to me. I would say I'm highly disappointed.I had very high expectations of you.” I say with a devilish smile.A frown forms on his face in confusion. “What are you talking about? What do you mean by having high expectations of me?” He stuttered.“You really don't recognize any

Raven's POV Five days now, five days since I last called Asher. Five days that I have had to deal with sickness, mood swings and horniness.It's draining and frustrating. “Raven dear, you up?” Maya calls from the doorway, peeping with only her head inside.I sat up in bed, “Yes, good morning Maya.” I say, yawning.“Morning sleepy bear. Hope you had a nice rest?” she asked.“It was okay, nothing…” My phone rings, cutting me short. Maya frowns and walks in, closing the door behind her.“Who is it?” She mouths to me as she approaches and I just shrug.Stretching to the bedside, I pick up the phone. It's a number I don't recognize. My heart skips a beat, what if it's Asher calling, but he wouldn't use an unknown number.Unless, he doesn't want me to recognize his number and not pick the call or what if it's someone else trying to tell me something urgent.Oh goddess! Please, I don't want to hear any bad news. I say a silent prayer to the goddess.“Pick it up. Aren't you going to?” Maya

Asher's POV Lucian strolls into the sitting room, holding a piece of paper with him. “What do you have there in your hand?” Dale asked him as soon as he saw him coming.“Greetings Alpha,” He says, bowing slightly.“Lucian,” I replied. “Do you have something for me?” I asked.“Yes Alpha, I traced the number Luna used to call you and it directed me to this address.” He says, giving me the paper in his hand.“The call was made from this address.” He says. I stare at the address, trying to see if it's familiar, but I can't place it.“This address is in the city.” “Yes it is , Alpha.” He replied.“Did you get the owner of the house or building?” I asked.“The building is owned by a private firm, Hector buildings. According to my research, it's kinda like an estate.Filled with bungalows and some duplexes. This house is one of them and it's owned by someone called Maya Ford.”“Maya Ford?” I muttered, my eyes narrowed. That name rings a bell. I've heard that name before.Realization hits

Asher's POV Liam and Connor stroll into the control room with a grim expression on their faces.Lucian still has his head buried in his computer so he doesn't notice when they walk in.Derek has a glass of whiskey in his hands, leaning up against the window frame.“What's wrong?” I asked as they approached.“Greetings Alpha.” They echoed together bowing slightly. I nod my head in acknowledgement.“We've got some news. You won't like it, but we have found the culprit responsible for Bryon and Althea Blackwood's death.” Liam says, clenching his knuckles.Lucian's head whips when he hears what Liam said. “Really?” He asked, bewildered.“Yes.” Connor answers. He also had a grim and stoic expression on his face.I look over at Derek to find him already staring in my direction. “Who is it? I ask in a low tone. Liam takes a deep breath.“It was Isla, your ex-girlfriend.” He forces out. The room falls silent. My brows narrow in confusion.Isla,why would it be Isla? Still confused by everyth

Raven's POV “It looks like we have a very active kid here. The heartbeat is strong and nothing seems amiss, everything is just right.” The doctor assures me, handing me a towel to clean up the gel on my stomach.“Thank you so much.” I said.“We're just doing our job here, no need to thank me.” He said with a smile.He turned to the nurse in the room, giving her some instructions before facing me.“Emm, when you're done here, please see me in my office.” He says to me.“Okay,” I nod. He walked out of the room leaving me with just the nurse.“Any idea what he wants to see me for?” I asked the nurse, but she just shrugged.“Nope, but I'm sure it's nothing serious, nothing to worry about, okay?” She says with a smile.“Alright, thanks for the reassurance.” I clean up quickly and out on my clothes, before heading over to the doctor's office.“Come in” he answered after the third knock.“Here, have your seat.” He gestured to the set opposite him.I take my seat, folding my hands in my laps

Raven's POV After dinner, we sat in the sitting room with my legs on Maya's lap as she helped massage them.“Hmm, that feels so good.” I say. “You're welcome. So, when do you want to call Asher? I think you should call him now.” She said.“Okay.” I say,sitting up and removing my legs from her laps. I stretch over to take my phone.I stare at Maya and she smiles back. “It's okay, you can do it. I'm right here beside you.” She encourages.I nod once, taking a deep breath, I dial his number.“Hello,” I say. “Hello, Raven.” His voice comes in. He sounds so tired and stressed and my heart goes out for him.I ache to see him, touch him and soothe him. I want to take away all his worries, but how can I? When I'm the source of all his worries.I swallow the knot in my throat. “How are you?” I muttered.“Just there. And you? How have you been? You sound a little tired.” He asked, in a concerned tone.“I've been okay, I guess. It's just… I have something important to tell you.” I say, stamm

It's not something I could have ever thought she would say to me.Derek and Dale walk in, they see the look on my face. “What's wrong again? Please don't tell me it's another bad news?” Derek says, slumping into the couch.“Really, I can't handle any more bad news. Can we just take a break from everything?” Dale says, going over the bar to pour himself a drink.“Isn't it too early to be drinking?” Derek asks his twin.“Oh please, coming from you really.” Dale says, flipping him off. I take a seat on one of the velvet chairs, opposite the bar. “Shut it Dale, be serious.” Derek scolds him.“What is it, Asher? What happened?” He asked me.“I just got off the call with Raven now.” I say, staring at them.They both stare at me with expected looks. “And?” Dale asks, when I don't speak immediately.“Come on Asher, don't keep us waiting.” Derek says,

I know I'm a little early but better early than late.“She'll be with you soon, Asher.” Maya tells me, making her way to the kitchen.I nod slowly in acknowledgement. “Thanks Maya”“Do you mind coffee? I'm going to make some now.” She asked.“I don't mind, thank you.”“Alright, I'll be back in a minute.”My phone pings, a message just came in.

Raven's POV Pacing around Asher's room, thinking of everything that was said downstairs.I rub at my temple, feeling a headache forming.What they are asking of me is too much and difficult too.

Raven's POV “Raven, Asher's here for you.” Maya called out to me from the door.I was washing the dishes we used to eat just now. “I'm coming.” I called right back.“She's coming, come in and have your seat.” I hear Maya say to him. I quickly finish up on the dishes and head straight to the sitting room.“I'll leave you guys alone now.” Maya pats me on my shoulders, winking at me before leaving for her room.“Hey,” I say, in greeting.“Hey.” He smiles up at me, patting the spot beside him for me to sit.I sit down beside him and he pulls me closer to him. “I've missed you.” He whispered into my ear.I shiver at the contact. “What? You saw me just a few hours ago, why miss me now?” I asked, a smile curving on my lips.“Raven, if I don't see you for just a second, I'll miss you. I need to have you with me constantly. Do you understand?” He regards me with golden eyes. I suck in my lips, nodding my head.“Good. Now don't suck your lips like that, it makes me want to do dirty that's to

Asher's POV “So, how did it go with Maya?” I asked Derek as soon as we settled down at home. Dale wasn't in sight, saying something about how he needed to sleep off the betrayal.So it's just me and Derek in the sitting room. “What are you talking about?’ he asked, feigning ignorance. I raise my brows at him.“Oh really! Don't start with me now, Derek. You know exactly what I'm talking about.”He takes a deep breath. “Actually, I really can't explain how it all happened, because I'm still shocked over the whole thing.We were together at the club and after I got your message not to come back home I decided we should all hang out at their house.That's how we got to their house. Dale, of course added wolf weed to our drink again, saying it will be best for us to be free and have enough fun.Then things got pretty heated after that.

Raven's POV After eating the pancakes, Asher drove me back home. The door was opened when we got there.“Strange, did Maya forget to lock the door?” I wondered, looking back at Asher.“Hold on, let me.” He said, leading the way. He opened the door, shielding me behind his back.Asher suddenly stopped moving, making me smack my head on his back. “Ouch, why did you stop?” I ask, peering over his back to see what made him stop.Dale was spread out wide on the couch, snoring gently with a bottle of whiskey still in his hands and popcorn littered on the floor.My brows knitted together, “What's going on here?” I asked no one in particular. “And where's Maya?” Just as I was about to head upstairs and check for her, Derek emerged from the stairs in only pants and socks.He was shirtless and his hair messed up, his glasses nowhere to be found.He hasn't noticed us yet, still rubbing the sleep away from his eyes while yawning.“Well, good morning.” I say, startling him.

Asher's POV “Wake up for me,” I whispered gently on the back of her shoulder.“No, I don't want to.” She grumbled sleepily into the pillow.“Come on, Raven. Wake up.” I said gently again.“I just need a minute or an hour more perhaps.” She mumbled sleepily into the pillow.I kissed and licked her shoulder. “It's almost noon.”“What!” She sits up at once, eyes wide open In shock.“What's the time now?” She asked, facing me.“It's 11:30 am, almost noon. You haven't had anything to eat yet.” I told her.“What! How— I mean, how did I sleep for so long? I'm usually up by 7 or 8 latest.” She shakes her head, musing over how late she woke up.I kiss her on the cheek, “I must have worn you out then, because you slept so soundly, I didn't want to disturb you.And I loved hearing those cute sounds you make with your nose.” I say, scrunching up my nose.“I do not.” She says, giving me a pointed look.“Oh yes, you do. You need to hear yourself.” I snickered.“Asher, do not mock me this morning.

Raven's POV Seeing Asher standing in the club brought all kinds of emotions and feelings to me.At first, I was shocked and happy to see him, glad that he wasn't harmed or in any form of danger, that he was safe.Then those feelings changed to anger and disappointment. Disappointed because he just left without a word or anything.Anger, because he felt like he could leave and show up anytime he likes and demand things from me.I was livid with the statement he made while I was dancing with my handsome stranger. I was just starting to enjoy myself, letting go of all my worries, just for him to show up and ruin everything.I wasn't going to pay any attention to him before, until I saw how hard his wolf was riding him to give up control.I saw his bloodshot eyes and his fingernails elongated, I could hear the growl over the noise and knew things would turn pretty bad if I don't step in and handle it.That's why I asked the stranger with me to leave because his presence wasn't helping.

Asher's POV “Take your hands off her now.” The menace that slithered into my voice made Raven freeze and the man with her watched me warily.I'd spoken so softly, so steadily. But, the danger was there, sending a trickle of trepidation to anyone who heard me. “Do you know him?” The guy had the audacity to ask Raven. Raven stared at me dumbfounded, the look on her face morphs from that of shock to anger.She turns to the guy beside her, places her hands on his shoulder and smiles sweetly at him.“I have no idea who he is or what he wants.” She says to him and then turns to me.“If you want to dance with me, get in line. As you can see, I'm already with someone right now.” She scowls at me, annoyance all over her face.I know she's mad at me and she has every right to be but right now, I'm on the edge, my wolf is on the edge too.Ever since I found out she was here tonight, I've been riding on the edge of destruction.I came straight here form the pack, only to see some random guy ha

Raven's POV “Any news about them?” I ask Maya once I got into the car.Maya arrived at the bookshop not too long ago to pick me up from work.“Yes, I got an address to their house.” She answered, reversing the car out of the parking lot.“How were you able to get the address so quickly?” I asked.“Well, I asked around if anyone moved in recently and someone was kind enough and showed me the apartment where a group of guys just moved into.That's how I got it.” She says, winking at me. I shake my head at her. “Oh Maya, you're the best.” I say, smiling at her.“Should we go there now before going home?” She asked.“Alright, let's do that.” Maya drove over to the address. “This is it.” Maya points at the house before us.The house is huge, it's two times bigger than ours. Well, I'm not surprised. Asher never does things in moderation.“Let's go find out what's wrong.” She says, taking the lead.Maya knocked on the door repeatedly but no one answered.“I don't think anyone's at home.”
