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 “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 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 “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. Dale was so out of it, he didn't realize we had started making out right beside him.We took things up to the room and that's all that happened. I don't

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

I didn't even do anything. Here I am, innocently laying down in bed and resting and you go ahead and accuse me of tempting you.Come on, Asher. Stop trying to blame me for your lack of control.” I say to him, smirking.He cocks his brows at me. “Oh really?

    Asher's POV I met Raven sitting down in the garden with a dull expression on her face.Having already heard everything about what happened to her today. So I knew what must be going through her head.She is probably blaming herself for everything. “Look at my favorite woman in the world.” I said, drawing her attention to me.Her face lights up as she sees me approaching her. “Hey, you're here.” She said.I kissed her on the lips softly. “Hey, baby girl. How are you doing?” I asked, taking a seat beside her on the swing. She sighed sadly admiring the flowers. “I heard from Matilda about what Arianna said today regarding our baby boy and I also heard that you have been blaming yourself for it.Look at me, even.” I said, tipping her head so she could face me.“You're not to blame for anything, it's not your fault.”“But isn't it, Asher? Everyone keeps saying it's not my fault but I can't help but blame myself. I'm his mother, I should have known what's best for him. I should have care

And my little godson?” Hope he isn't stressing you too much?” She asked.I chuckled softly. “I'm good, we are good. Your little godson has been showing himself of late.”“Oh, oh. You don't mean it? What did he do?”“He has decided to turn my stomach into his football pitch. He kicks a lot now and it hurts.”“Aww, sorry Mama. He's just showing you he's active. He's showing you just how strong he is. He's really going to be a handful when he's born.” She said.“Yeah, I know that. So, how is everything? And work?” I asked.“Everything is fine, work is going smoothly. I've applied for the leave and I'll get it by next week.”“What? Really? So you'll be here by next week?” I asked, unable to contain the joy in my voice. Maya laughed over the phone. “Yes, I'll be with you pretty soon.

    Asher's POV Hate gathered behind Isla’s eyes until they practically shone with it.“Should I be afraid of you? What did you expect? That I'll go down on my knees and grovel in front of you, begging for mercy and your forgiveness?Never! I hope you suffer and that child inside you suffers too. I pray he does just as your brother did.The only regret I have is not killing you the day I attacked you. I should have ripped out your heart.” Isla spat with so much menace and hate.My wolf lunged to the surface ready to end Isla’s life for daring to talk to my mate that way.But then I remembered Raven's words, asking me to promise not to interfere and let her handle it herself.I clench my knuckles tightly, railing in my anger. Raven's wolf lunged to the surface as she smiled, the smile was rather serene.“I know and you'll die too. Say hello to the devil for me when you get to hell.” She said and with that she jammed the knife into her second eye while using her other hand which she partia

I thought I'd have to coax you to get out of bed again.” Asher asked, stepping into the room, holding a glass of juice.“Here, Matilda said to give this to you.” He said, handing me the glass of juice and placing a kiss on my head.I drank the juice immediately. “So why are you up early?” He asked again, tilting his head to the side.“I was thinking about today. So, I couldn't sleep again.” I responded.“Today? What about it?” He asked, his brows furrowed in confusion.“Did you forget? I'm going to face Isla today, I'm going to relieve those bad memories I have buried deep down within me again.” I said in a pained voice.“Hey, look at me.” Asher tips me head up so I can stare into his eyes.“You don't have to do anything you don't feel like doing.
