Jasmine's POVHis eyes were now a pair of deep royal blue that burned with so much intense passion, lust and arousal... And in them, I caught a reflection of mine; a pair of red fierce eyes that had mixed emotions. Oddly, my gaze wander around his neck and settled on a small and delicate spot. Blood! Blood! Blood! Was all my frenzy mind could scream. And what amazed me was the fact that it wasn't out of spite that I desperately wanted a bite and taste of him, but sudden developed longing, like my wolf was switched. No... No! I pressed my eyelids firmly, with high hopes that it would go away... All of it. “Do it.” His deep penetrating voice ordered me like I was jinxed. My lips parted on their own accord, as my eyes were fixed on the same spot on his neck like they were earlier. Oddly, his vessels became prominent... not to anyone else, but to the soul that longed to have a taste from their river beds, me!"Do it Jasmine..." He beckoned to me, his voice the smoothest siren. "Bite me
Asher's POV Kill that asshole! No, strangle him till he beg for death, and ensure it would be the one thing he would never get! “Focus, dear.” Luna Diana cupped my chin, straughtened it till I was looking at her gorgeous face and returned her hand to lay on my shoulder and around my neck, where it had always been. Jeez! Could she just let me go already? For what seemed like ages, we were stuck in the same dance step, repeating it like we were rehearsing for a festival. I was tired and slowly getting irritated, not of her, but of the whole situation. As though she could read my thoughts, she carefully positioned her underarm on my arm, and her hand around my shoulder took my neck in a tender grasp. We waltz, not changing any freaking dance steps or swinging or chanting, we were like rocks, fulfilling their mission to make the earth solid, a pity duty. “Sebastian!” I groaned in my head, but even though it was in my head, I was scared she heard me because of the intensity with which
Asher's POV "I see you barely have the balls for anything." Sebastian spewed and scoffed, right in my face. The heck?! I clenched my fists beside me, trying so hard to keep my temper in check. He needed to be told I've got balls than the asshole... freaking balls, not just meant to pop cubs!'And then what?' My wolf groaned. 'Best the asshole to death and bury him in his freaking pack.' I spat back. 'How about beheading him and showing the members of his pack the head of their alpha before going to yours?' My wolf asks sarcastically. I sighed softly, not sure what to say to him. My head was in a state of chaos, even worse than my actual surroundings. 'Whose side are you on?' I asked, already tired of thinking it through. 'Not on yours, or anyone at that, this time around.' He spat out bluntly. 'How would you think of jeopardizing your life and family just for revenge...''Not for revenge, it's for a reminder.' I corrected him.'Oh... Just to prove a point, tell me something mor
Sebastian's POV "And I would hop and leave if I were you," I responded anyway, even though Asher was long gone and he had only his back to me. That was the plan, to claim my woman and make her crazy lover so uncomfortable. And I was beyond glad my little game was working, even more than I envisaged. Who would think Jasmine would ever react to me that way? The sudden flash of attraction in her eyes, red, fierce, and greedy. I saw it and I longed for her to make me hers. While her eyes were wet with raw emotions, my suddenly sprouted fangs pressed against my jaws... Like she desperately wanted to mark me, I also wanted to return the favor. Having no companion, I walked out of the dancefloor and headed towards the exit. Thankfully, my father was no longer in the hall, nor was my mother, which was strange. About a while ago, they were both in the hall and watching over me like a hawk, and now they were both gone?I shrugged in an 'I don't give a fuck' way and continued walking toward
Sebastian's POV Like a lost soul with no means of redemption, I walked out of the garden and kept wandering into the woods. If by fixing my mess, my parents meant that I should make things return to their previous state, even though I doubt the possibility of that, and I bet they know so too, but somehow, they prefer living in denial. So long as Asher was very much in the picture, all of my efforts would be flushed down the drain. Like an obstacle, he was always in my face, every damn time. Better put, he was worse than an obstacle, because even obstacles have a way around them and a solution too... Unlike Asher, except...My breath was labored with the mere realization of the only solution to my problem. Kicking him out of her life and making Jasmine mine, would only mean gaining all of his vileness, and not like I was scared to go toe to toe with him or anything of that sort, only that it was a temporary solution to a permanent problem. The only illogical thing to do was elimina
Jasmine's POV "Asher, where are you going?" My shaky voice muttered. He just can't leave me alone in this mess, fine, I take all the blame that I did create it, but I deserved a second chance everyone does. And to be honest, it would be unfair of me to be entitled to a second chance when he had given me a hundred of them, and every damn time, I blew them off like they were nothing... Perhaps, I would only value him more if I worked and sweat for it. I guess I deserved his cold treatment after all. "Anywhere but here." He said coldly and bluntly. "Please, stay." I pleaded. He turned and scoffed. When he looked at me, I bowed my head slightly, unable to return his intense gaze that was laced with so many bitter emotions, and they were so thick, very much palpable. "What does it matter?" He demanded sincerely. I opened my mouth, but closed it, not having anything rational to say to him at this point. "I will be outside then." He spoke up when I said nothing in return. "Wait..."
Jasmine's POV "Mate! Mate! Mate!" My wolf cried, like a caged bird set free after a million years.Mate?! Was my wolf crazy or what? What did she mean by mate? There was Asher, freaking waiting for me at home... I had a whole freaking family and now I just found my mate? Crap! "Mate! Mate! Mate!" She kept ringing it in my ears like a siren. Oddly, the big black wolf began to circle his way around me, with no remorse whatsoever for ramming into me! Instead, he was even cocky in his wolf form, I bet he would be an egomaniac. Asher?!Asher and I met in the human world, which meant that I had never seen his wolf before, the only time he was close to shifting was at the time in the hospital, during the incident with Sebastian specifically. He got so pissed that he almost broke the barrier of restraint... Just exaggerating, because it was the one thing werewolves never got past, even the strongest of us. This freaking has to be Asher! He left the room in an angry state and demanded to
Jasmine's POV "Sebastian!" I groaned as I struggled with his heavy weight on me. "Jasmine?" He gasped and bagging a few more spanks, he rolled off me and settled on his back momentarily. It appeared that the both of us had something in common; shock... We were literally surprised by the turnout of the event like I would never dream of being latched to his freaking beast, but unlike him, I was pissed off. Just a look at him revealed how delighted this revelation left him. "How dare you?!" I wasn't having it as I pulled backward a bit, giving us both the much-deserved space we needed, me especially. Still riled up, I smacked him hard across the face with a free hand, as the others found their way around my voluptuous racks, even though they barely did anything other than merely covering my nipples. "Stop!" He cried out, blocking a few of my random punches and slaps. After a moment, I stopped, not because he asked me to, because as clear as day, I would love to smash his head agai
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
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,
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 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 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
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
