Asher's POV

The shower's running in the bathroom, Raven must have started taking her bath.

I pick up my shirt and put it on, I told Raven I'll be gone before she comes out.

“I'm leaving now,” I yell, but no response. I don't think she heard me. I make my way down the stairs, to the door

“Well, good morning.” Maya's voice halt me in my steps.

I turned around, she stood at the entrance of the kitchen with a cup of coffee in her hand.

“Good morning, Maya.” I say, giving her a huge smile.

“Are you doing the walk of shame out or…” she tolrs her head to the side.

“What? No way. I'm just leaving. I didn't think you'd be awake by this time so I didn't want to disturb.” I told her

“Hmm, okay. And Raven?_ she asked, taking a sip from her cup.

“She's having her bath now.”

“Okay.”

“Yeah, thanks for dinner last night, we appreciate it “ I said.

“Oh, youre welcome. Haopy to always be your host.” She smiles and I nod.

He promised to be here by 9:00 am but it's 9:30 am and he's still not here.“Asher still hasn't arrived?” Maya asked, coming down the stairs.“Not yet.” I say, staring at the window for any trace of his car.“Don't worry, he'll be here soon, he's probably just running late, maybe he slept in.” She says, pouring herself a cup of coffee.She chuckles when she sees me stretching my neck at the window. “You really are so eager to see him, uhn?” She says, sipping her coffee.I turn to face her. “What do you mean? Asher has never been late before. He's usually a little too early or right on time, never late. That's why I'm a little worried.” I explained to her.“Okay, but you

    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.”

    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 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 The pack enforcers and some other members of his pack are all gathered at the clearing, all to witness the exchange and serve as a witness to our deal. I could hear the murmuring and whispering of the pack members, no doubt in fear of what might happen if things don’t go smoothly. After all, I'm known as the Cruel Alpha and my reputation precedes me.Moving forward, I catch a scent so sweet and pure, a scent of bliss. My wolf purred within, urging me to trace where the scent is from and from who.Standing right at the center of the crowd was a petite female, looking so meek and gentle. Slowly, cautiously, I allowed my gaze to drift to her. Studying her blond hair, highlighted with silver strands, cascading around her shoulders in loose waves.Her dark eyebrows arch over her midnight dark eyes that ensnare me. She wears a simple pair of blue jeans that hug her curves and show the swell of her ass and a pink sweater that accentuates the swell of her breasts.This woman’s sw

    Raven's POV I was so excited and nervous to see Asher again. Immediately I heard the knock on the door, I ran upstairs to my room, telling Maya I needed to freshen up, I'll be back soon.But in reality, I just needed the space, I couldn't face Asher just yet. After giving myself a lot of pep talk, I finally decided to go downstairs before anyone starts looking for me.But before that, I decided to put on a little makeup and look good.I wore a black, halter neck dress, nothing too elegant, just simple and sexy and tied my hair up in a bun.I applied some mascara and lip gloss to my lips before heading downstairs.Asher was already seated at the table with Derek and Dale. Maya was setting the dishes on the table.“Look, there she is.” Maya announced my presence but my eyes remained on Asher.His gaze trailing my steps as I descended the stairs, the heated look in his eyes made me blush ten shades or red.A whooping sound comes from Dale. “Wow, you look so beautiful, Raven.

We get to see Raven and Maya again and also enjoy Maya's dishes.We don't have to order our dinner. It's a win-win situation here.” He explained.“Hmm, whatever.” Derek goes to the bar and pours himself a drink.“I heard you went over to Raven's workplace, is that true?” He asked.I huff out a long breath. “Yeah, I went to see her and I dropped her off at home after work too.”“Hmm, nice. At least you're making progress with her.” He says, downing his whiskey.“You know, you should take it easy on the alcohol. We're having dinner at Raven's place tonight, you d

Having already texted her that Asher has agreed to having dinner with us tonight.I'm pretty sure that is why she is home so early. Shaking my head, I get down from the far.Asher sees me off to the entrance of the door. “Thanks for today.” I say, giving him a small smile.“See you later tonight for dinner.” I say, turning to get inside the house.“Wait.” He pulls my hand and I turn to face him.“What is it?” I asked when he didn't say anything on time.He pulls me to him and hugs me tightly. “I know you're yet to fully forgive me.

What are you doing here in my bookshop?” She asked again.I move closer to her, closing the distance between us, so we are only an inch apart I trace my fingers down her face. “I came to see you Raven, I've missed you “ I whispered slowly to her.“You saw me just yesterday. What do you mean you miss me?” She asked, frowning.“I know,but even if I don't see you for just a minute, I'll still miss you.” She takes a deep breath, closing her eyes.“You can't just show up at my workplace unannounced just like that.” She whispered, yelling at me.“Why are you whispering? No one can hear us from here and there, no one out front in the first place.” I said to her.Her eyebrows knit together, “You need to leave now, Asher. You're disturbing me here.”“I can't leave now, Raven. I'm h
