Chapter 159 An Unexpected Visitor From The Past Jasmine's POV I remained in Asher's bosom as we cuddled up in bed all day. It was the full moon period and the pack were preparing for a splendid celebration. The kids were at their father's pack, they remained with their grandparents after the visit to his pack to show me the surprise. It was already a week after that wonderful day, and I had yet to fully shake off it. Who would have expected? From day one, I knew Asher's love was unbeatable but I never saw that coming. He kept raising the bar over and over again every freaking day. I finally get to be a doctor, I finally get to live in my dreams all day without fear of waking up from it prematurely! Damn! "I just called the manager in charge of the construction." Asher dropped the phone and played with my hair, running his hand through it and lacing multiple strands around his fingers. "Okay?" I titled my chin upward so it was leaning directly on his bosom. I was so invested in
Chapter 160 Merry Go Round Jasmine's POV "Ah!" I groaned, a loud deafening cry. Sebastian was freaking alive?! Damn it! I flung the paper from Asher's hand in disbelief... The news was a good one, but I was still living in denial, it was too good to be true. "Oh my!" I whimpered, my hands were visibly shaky. By now, my sweaty palms had left brown maps on the pure white sheet. "It's Sebastian," Asher spoke after a long pause. He was still clearly in shock like myself, if not more. Without prior thoughts, I got off the bed and rushed out of the room, headed to my parent's room. I couldn't wait to see their reaction. Even though they seemed to have moved on, it was no denying that they missed him so much. First, he was their son, their only biological child, and second, everything around them reminded them of Sebastian... The throne, food, events he was unable to meet up because of his sudden demise... They would be over the moon, I could stake my life on it. "Mother!" I cried as
Chapter 161 Multiple Blessings As A Comeback Jasmine's POV Last night was a very emotional one for us. After we spoke to Sebastian on the phone, I didn't even let the call drop before I ran like a thief into my parent's room for the second time. Initially, they were reluctant to indulge me, but when Sebastian spoke up again, they were caught up in their disbelief as they sprang up from bed, wanting to snatch the phone from me. My mother didn't mind if she was in a skimpy gown and with her mate in bed, and so did my father, and it was even better since I was the only one around. After much battle, I handed the phone over to them in tears and they spoke at length with their son, asking for forgiveness, and also pleaded that he had a change of mind and returned for the full moon holidays. Sebastian on the other hand, was quite repentant than I had figured him to be. He also apologized to his parents and myself and Asher, and we bonded like one big family. Throughout last night, my
Chapter 162 Resurrection Of The Miracle Doctor Jasmine's POV "Dr. Jasmine!" A random voice screamed. I turned in the direction and found a man in his mid-thirties, groaning in pain. He nursed his left arm with his right and looked a bit battered. His shirt was torn in a few places, and so were his pants, in addition, they were dirty. "Hello," I smiled genuinely when I got to where he was standing. "Dr. Jasmine, my body aches." He groaned in severe pain. "What happened to you, if I may ask?" I began integrating him, still observing him closely. "I fell off a cliff while hiking." He said briefly. "It feels like all my bones are broken." He continued to cry out. "Oh, I'm sorry to hear that." I offered my sympathy. "Thank you, Dr. Jasmine." He sniffled. "Will I be able to use my arm again?" He asked genuinely. It must be a strong fall because most times our wolf abilities helped in the healing process and made it faster. If he was this concerned, then we had a lot of work to do,
Jasmine's POV "Welcome, Alpha Finley!" My mother excitedly welcomed the guests and even though there were ushers all over the place, she still made it her duty to welcome people, especially her special guests; allies of our packs, noble alphas, and a few old buddies. Today was the final day Asher would be coronated as Alpha of his pack and the merging of our packs together. My parents made a long list of guests they would invite. I, Liam, and Rylee on the other hand just received soft treatment, ate, and enjoyed the weekend. Their presence in the pack and hospital had relieved me of stress. Liam made sure a few agents I sent partnership deeds to collaborate with me. He also helped in the hospital and took on the role of training intern doctors. Rylee wasn't left out, she took care of the kids a few times and helped with the non-medical management of the hospital. She was a good manager, so I made her take on the role of the head of our PR team. Alpha Finley followed my mother as
JASMINE POV I tumbled down the stairs. My head and ribs collided with the sharp edges of each step riser. I moaned in excruciating pain when it stopped. "Seb–Sebastian," I croaked, tasting the salty tears that dropped. My vision blurred as I looked up. I still made out the four laughing faces of the pack wolves that just threw me down these steps. They hurried towards me now. "Oh, Jasmine! Did you think we were through with you yet?" A deep voice mocked me, getting closer and closer. My heart beat as fast as a freight train. A sob tore through me as they neared. Another licked his lips. "Sebastian's whore looks so edible while covered in her own blood." I had to stand up and run. I tried crawling forward, but a hand grabbed the scruff of my neck, slamming the back of my head into the opposite wall. A groan escaped me, "Argh." "No one can save you now, birthday girl," the deep voice laughed, yanking at my hair and digging claws into my scalp. I turned eighteen today. In fact
JASMINE POV Eight Years Later… Beep. Beep. Beep-beep Beeeeeeeeep. "Code blue!" I couldn’t breathe. Blood spurted from the open stomach of this old woman with a kind smile. Her only mistake was that she had been on my surgical table tonight. "Dr. Ross! The patient is having a cardiac arrest. Her vitals are dropping below dangerzone!" The nurses screamed at me while I froze, hands shaking in the air. For two years, I've lived as a famous and highly successful doctor in New York City, and believe me when I say there has never been any death on my record. I went into surgery rooms confident, too confident. And today that had worked against me. There was about to be a death on my record. 60 year old Carmen with a kind smile. Her family waited outside for her to come back to them. Carmen's smile haunted me now as I watched her shake wrongly on my surgical table. The machine lines flattened, and her pulse dropped as fast as a countdown. 55/30...20/10... A hand shook my shoulder
JASMINE POV Each time I heard that last name, flashes of who I used to be would come back to me. Jasmine, the orphan of the Ice Wolf pack. I remembered her. How miserable she was. More importantly, it reminded me of Sebastian Carter. My chest constricted. I placed a hand over it. Breathing became difficult as it would every time I thought I was about to see him again. "Mr. Carter!" Brady beamed. He stood on his feet to welcome the young man, who just walked in. The knots in my stomach loosened. I sucked in air in bouts. It wasn't Sebastian. He still hadn't found me after all these years. Brady shook hands with the man. "Welcome to Greenbrook. This is Dr. Varma, Dr. Banerji, Dr. Jenkins, and Dr. Ross. They are the cream of the crop within these walls." Carter said, "Nice to meet you all. I hope we have a productive year together." We offered him a curt bow. I had fallen in ranks. A bitter taste spread through my mouth at the humiliation of bowing to my replacement. A year

Asher's POV "Babe!" I got into the bedroom and dived into it, missing her by an inch. "Jeez!" She exclaimed and adjusted swiftly, preventing the wrecking of her toes and limbs. "What was that for?" She frowned, looking at me sternly like she would kill me with her gaze if she could. "I'm sorry," I chuckled. "I'm just super excited for you," I added. "For me?" She rolled her eyes in a 'what for?' way. "So, you know that I keep going to my pack every weekend, huh?" I waited for her to respond and she nodded her head in affirmation. "The thing is that I have a surprise for you." I finished, the excitement palpable in my voice. "You need to see it!" I beamed. "In your pack?" "Yup." I nodded furiously, with a goofy grin plastered across my cheeks. "Nah," She frowned, collapsing back in the bed. "I'm tired." She grumbled."Up, up." I spanked her hips. "We have to get going, time is not on our side." I urged her. "Which is why I can't go." She sighed. "The day is far gone, you can
Chapter 157 A New Chapter Jasmine's POV Two Years Later. Asher went to his pack for the weekend. Like me, he had accepted to become the alpha, but he just did recently, and it was because he was rendering a helping hand and solid support to me. Together, we helped my parents, and never did we stop treating them like family, because they deserved much more than we could give. "Mum? I can't find Penny." Emily cried in frustration. "Have you checked around?" I waited for her to respond and she nodded. "Maybe check the garden? She may be in love with nature.""Not really," She frowned. "I doubt she will be outside, I didn't let her out." She sighed. "You could ask the servants to help you out... respectfully," I added. "Okay." She shrugged and bobbed out.I laughed shortly as I watched her leave. The kids had moved down to the pack with us, as we couldn't leave them with Liam and Rylee for a long period of time. Initially, they were sad, as they had changed schools for the umptee
Chapter 156 The Saving Jasmine's POV I remained curled up in bed, still in a beaten state. It had been days since Sebastian's death and we were yet to shake off the sad reality... There was no getting of this ill fate. Asher came into the room, holding a cup of tea on a saucer. He looked pretty much stressed, the whole household was practically in distress. Neither I nor Asher got to play with the kids like we used to, or even make them the nice meals we usually do. Although Asher tried his best to be present, it would never be the same as it used to be. Our existence of late was basically bland and without flavor. The kids only went to school, are and remained in their room, the only person that managed to escape the claws of boredom was Emily as she had Penny. Their grandparents were even more grieved than me. "Babe, you should have something in your system." He set the cup of tea beside me and sat at the foot of the bed, just close to my toes. "I'm fine," I brushed his offer
Jasmine's POVIt was an early Saturday morning, I was sorting out dirty clothes in the hamper as I prepared to do the laundry. This was something I hated about weekends, I basically had to do all of what I wasn't able to do during weekdays and there was no way I would leave the laundry till the upper week. Since my parents got discharged from the hospital, we agreed to allow them to stay with us for about three months and see how things go. Next week would make it three months, and so far, they were going perfectly, especially for my father who was seriously ill. And next, I would make food for the kids and my parents. Jeez! It was overwhelming. Not like Asher wasn't helping, but I just got lazy over the week. Plus, Asher went out to do some inquiries for the new company he was starting, which meant he would not be home anytime soon and when he returned, it's proper he gets fed. "Mum?!" I heard the kids scream. I sighed loudly, partly irritated. They would never cease to annoy me
