Asher's POV:Alpha did not do as I had asked. Instead, he stopped and asked me to repeat myself."Didn't you hear what I said?" His guards held me down forcefully while I tried to move, "I said… Go and fuck yourself"I expected that to piss him off but instead
Arabella's PoVI fell on my bottom and crawled backwards. My eyes popped open . The man laying lifeless in front of me was Asher. The father of my unborn child. Oh no.It took about a second for me to catch my breath and recover from the shock before I finally crawled to him.I shook him."Asher! Alpha Asher!! Are you there?"His body was stiff and cold. I rolled him over completely and placed my hand on his chest. I closed my eyes and then let out an exhale, calming my thoughts, kneeling still beside him. I needed to feel a heartbeat."Come on Alpha Asher, you can not give up this soon. Stand up you bastard, don't you dare die yet!!"I yelled inside but managed to stay composed outside.It didn't take too long for me to feel a heartbeat. It was weak and took a little while to form but at least, it was there. I pulled my hands away and looked at his face. His eyes were closed and blood dripped from his mouth."You're still alive. Thank goodness"Thank the moon goddess for his sake, I
Arabella's PoVI thought she would say something bad but instead, what I heard her say was that he needed food."He is hungry '' were her words. I sprang from my feet, walked to her and stared deep into her eyes."So what you're saying to me is that he is okay and well. He is fine"She nodded. I covered my mouth to stop myself from gasping out loud."Thank you to both you and your sister. I never would have done this without both of you. I am so grateful. Thank you"I indulged her in a hug which she quickly tore away from. I tried again but then, she warned me not to do that again. I agreed.My mind lingered to where the witch was. "Is Mary still trying to clean his wounds?" I asked innocently.Mary laughed. She held her waist and laughed again."No, she's not. In fact, the thing is he is…."I did not bother to listen. She pushed past the witch and made her way to their house.I barged in, "Where is Asher? What is going with him?"Mary's back was faced to her. She was struggling wit
Arabella's POVBlood rolled down my shoulders as I bit my lower lip. The pain was intense and aching. I hissed as he pulled away and wiped his teeth. He looked more saddened that he had bitten into my skin than myself."Did it hurt?" I shook my head. Looking at the wound, it had begun to heal. I smiled at him."I'm fine"Alpha Asher wiped his mouth again and spat out. He came closer to me and engulfed me in his embrace. He squeezed me tightly and blew on my injury."You'll be fine. That's the last time your blood would be spilled, okay?"My chest felt a little relieved by his words. I smiled inside of me and nodded."Thank you"He moved from my shoulders to my face and asked if he could kiss me. I was shy about it but then, who could resist those lips?Alright.He was gentle about it as his lips touched mine with such calmness.It started out gentle but as I knew him even before he lost his Memories, he loved to be rough.We got rough for a little bit and then, slowly, he came back t
Asher's eyes opened to their limits. He looked like he was asking for permission to dip his hands into my core.This time it wasn't for pleasure, it was for my own survival."But I am not the child's father" he blurted out while his hands slowly inserted into me. I held my breath. I didn't want to say anything."Do it. She will explain later"Mary said to him. She took a hold of his hand and dragged it inward.I felt Asher's fist inside of me and soon, he opened up to welcome something.Something tore through me and reached for his hand. The tear caused me to bleed. Blood and sweat rolled out of my body seamlessly.More tears threatened to fall off my eyelids but I held them in."He's almost done. Hang in there" It was easy to say. She was not the one who had a child poke his hands out of her womb to touch his father.Some minutes later, Asher pulled his hand out of me. It was dripping with my blood and fluid on it.Mary with less hair asked her sister for a towel and wiped me clean
Arabella's POVI was not going to stand still and watch things go wrong.I drew in a deep breath to calm myself and then smiled, "Give me better options, please"They both folded their hands simultaneously. "That's all the vision says. We don't have anything else to say"I huffed, "Surely the great witches could do more than just see visions. Can't you guys alter the vision or something?""Well,. We could help you. We have two options. We could help him regain his memories or we could help slowl the process down"One of the Marys came forward."Choose wisely*Of course I would go with the option that said he wouldn't remember his past self. I love what was happening and would not have wanted him to go back to his old self.But then… "Tell me what each option entails"I shook myself a little, adjusting to the pain I had just gone through. The baby inside of me seemed perfectly fine now."On one hand, if you agree to letting us regain his memory, we could help wipe the ones he has now
Arabella's POV:The moment was so intense that I began to feel sick. Asher had held my wrist, staring into my eyes and asking for answers.What could I have possibly given to him that would have equated to the explanation of truth?I couldn't risk letting him know anything so it wouldn't trigger his memory. The witches had been specific about any little triggers. "Asher, there's is nothing I have to tell you, please, I do not want to talk about it"I thought he might leave me be but he insisted."Arabella, who is the father of your child?" I couldn't answer.I pulled my wrist from him and gave him a stare. "Don't ask me anything pertaining to this.. I don't want to talk"Ii wasn't bulging and neither was he. The sweet and loving Alpha Asher had now become adamant about letting go."My wolf tells me there is more to this whole story that you aren't telling me and I want to know. Where did I come from? What is my name? Where are my people?"I began to panic. There was no way I would es
Arabella's POVAsher was not joking. He rubbed on my clitoris so much it thickened and reddened. I begged him to have mercy on me. The throbbing feeling of it was shaking inside of my center.I was shaking."Shut up" he commanded me. I bit down on my lower lip as I tried to hold in the moans that were choking my throat and causing me to cry.One more run and I was ready to cry all over again. I was falling in love again.He stopped!Slowly, he got down and opened his legs to face me. He adjusted his hanging manhood. He pulled me closer to himself and then started to tickle me my fancy.He rubbed on my clitoris with his manhood until I felt myself almost leaking. I wanted to urinate.The ecstacy was blinding. I felt my eyes twitch."Alpha Asher" I let out but then slapped my mouth. I had forgotten not to add the alpha.I corrected myself by acting like it was a mistake."You're my alpha either way" I smiled at him.Alpha Asher laughed. He stopped the rubbing and located my hole.I was
Arabella's POVAfter feeding and tending to the triplets, we carefully escorted them to a secure safehouse in the basement of the attic. Ava insisted on staying with them, her protective instincts kicking in as she cradled our precious babies in her arms. With tears in my eyes, I kissed each of their foreheads, silently promising to return to them unharmed.As we left the safety of our makeshift sanctuary, the weight of impending conflict hung heavy in the air. The moon cast an eerie glow upon the forest, illuminating our path as we marched toward our destiny.The night whispered with the rustle of leaves, a symphony of anticipation and fear. We moved with purpose, each step a silent vow to protect our loved ones and rid the world of the darkness that threatened to consume us.Arriving at the rendezvous point, our allies stood ready, their eyes ablaze with determination. Jeremy, clad in the mantle of leadership, exuded a quiet confidence as he addressed the assembled group."We strike
Arabella's POVMy heart raced as the echoes of the ritual still lingered in my mind. The bond may have been severed, but either it didn't work or its remnants were imprinted on my senses. I turned to Asher, urgency etched across my face."We need to find Jeremy. He's in danger," I uttered, the gravity of the situation piercing through the newfound calmness.Without hesitation, my father led the way, his steps purposeful as we ventured back to the house but I stopped them. "I think he's in this direction," I shouted and they stopped."Noah, take them home. I'll go find my brother." My father suggested but I shook my head. Without me, they might never find him and I'll be restless. I had to go with them. We just had to be extra careful.The air seemed charged with an unspoken tension, and my instincts guided me toward Jeremy's location.As we moved deeper into the forest, a sense of foreboding enveloped us. The ominous rustling of leaves and distant echoes of a struggle sent shivers do
Arabella's POVIn the quiet of the nursery, surrounded by the soft breaths of the sleeping triplets, I grappled with the enormity of the revelations.I traced the patterns on the floor, lost in thought when Mary and her sisters materialized in the room. “Asher called me," Mary said, her eyes locking onto mine. "Your father explained the situation between you and the other Jere brother. “Is there a way to unlink us from each other? I don't want to be linked to him. And my blood, isn't there a way to remove that too?” I asked with hopeful eyes.“They asked me this and I will tell you the same thing I told them. Breaking a bond like yours is no easy feat. Only the witch who binds can unbind but she doesn't seem to be alive and with the help of my sisters and the rest of the coven, we'd try our best. I believe we can find a way.”Relief washed over me at the prospect of a solution. "Please, Mary, find a way”One of the sisters nodded, her expression serious. "First, we need to delve int
Arabella's POVI rushed to find Asher, my mind swirling with unanswered questions. As I entered the meeting room, Asher's concerned eyes met mine, and I knew he sensed that something was wrong."Dad needs us. There's something going on," I said, trying to convey the gravity of the situation.Asher nodded, immediately following me to my father's room. The atmosphere was tense as we entered, my father and Jeremy exchanging uneasy glances. My father gestured for us to sit, and as we did, he began to explain."As you already know, Jeremy and I are the Jere twins," he began, looking at his brother and then at me. "We've been around for more than three hundred years before I finally met your mom then had you. Before that time, the two of us used to rule, until there was a fight and he became a rogue. I couldn't bear to kill my own twin but I had to find a way and it came with its own consequences. With everyone's help, we were able to find the witch queen who explained that you were coming,
Arabella's POVAs I met Jeremy's gaze, a chill ran down my spine. The shared look of terror confirmed that what I had experienced wasn't merely a product of exhaustion. There was something more, something ominous lurking in the shadows."Jeremy," I whispered, my voice shaky. "What does it mean? Why would we both dream something so vivid and unsettling?"His eyes darted nervously, and for a moment, I wondered if he held a piece of the puzzle he wasn't ready to share. "Why did we have the same dream?" I asked and this time he opened his mouth to speak."We're connected. As for the dream, I don't know…"A surge of anxiety tightened my chest. "But what if it's a warning? What if something terrible is about to happen to Dad or you?"Jeremy hesitated, his jaw clenched. "We have to be careful. I think you should call your witch friend," he said, then turned around, an air of mystery following him as he left. "Don't bother him now, Ara," Asher sang in my ear as he saw that I was looking at t
Arabella's POVJeremiah's eyes held a mixture of sadness and regret as he regarded me. "Arabella, my dear, I've been trapped in this place for many years. Breaking the barrier at the door was only the first step. But now, we need the map that brought you here."I nodded, determined to free my father from this mysterious confinement. I retrieved the aged map from my Jeremy and handed it to him. As he studied it, a solemn expression crossed his face."This map is more than just a guide," he murmured. "It holds the key to the enchantment that keeps me here. We must decipher it together."I leaned closer, my eyes fixed on the intricate details of the map. "Tell me what to do, Father. I'll do whatever it takes to free you."He muttered a few incantations, his fingers tracing the lines on the map. Suddenly, the room seemed to shift, as if responding to whatever he was saying. A low hum filled the air, and the barrier that surrounded my father's room weakened."Arabella, my strength is fadin
Asher's POVJeremy led me to a secluded corner of the house, away from prying eyes and curious ears. The air was heavy with tension, and I fixed him with a glare that could pierce steel."Explain yourself," I demanded, my voice low and threatening. "What happened with Arabella? And why the hell is my sister claiming some... connection with you?"Jeremy ran a hand through his wet hair, raindrops falling onto the floor like a steady beat. "Look, Asher, I didn't plan for any of this. I found Arabella outside, unconscious. I have no idea why she was there or what caused her to faint. And as for your sister, Ava, I can't explain that either. It's not something I control."I scoffed, unconvinced. "You expect me to believe that? We've been through enough without adding mysterious mates and fainting episodes to the mix. I need answers."He sighed, a weariness in his eyes. "I know it's hard to believe, but I'm not your enemy here. As for Ava, the connection she feels is real, even if it defies
Asher's POVAll of a sudden it began to rain heavily and we decided to go back inside.As I approached the entrance to our home, I noticed the lights were turned on. Thinking it was Jeremy, I ran in.Entering the living room, my eyes widened in disbelief at the scene before me. Jeremy stood there, his soaked figure revealing that he was in the storm outside. Yet, it wasn't the rain that held my attention, it was the limp form of Arabella he cradled in his arms."What the hell happened?" My voice came out, filled with shock and anger. I glanced between Arabella's unconscious form and Jeremy's stoic expression."She fainted," Jeremy explained calmly, his eyes meeting mine. "I found her like this outside. I didn't see you, so I brought her in."I could feel the heat rising within me. "Fainted? Why was she outside in the first place?""I don't know. She was just standing there, and then she collapsed. I did what I could to get her here quickly." "Call for the nurse. Now." My command cut
Arabella's POV"I don't know, Asher," I replied, my anxiety growing. "But I have a bad feeling about this. He just disappeared."Asher nodded, a stern expression on his face. "You stay here with the triplets. I'll gather some men, and we'll search the pack house and the surrounding area. We can't let him slip away when we are this close to finding what's going on."I watched as Asher hurriedly stood up, wore his clothes then left the room. Alone with the triplets, I couldn't shake the uneasy feeling that had settled in the pit of my stomach.The minutes felt like hours as I waited, listening to the distant sounds of footsteps and hushed voices. When Asher returned, his face wore a mix of frustration and concern. "We couldn't find him anywhere. It's like he vanished into thin air."I clenched my fists, frustration bubbling within me. "This is not good, Asher."Asher's gaze hardened. "We'll keep searching. But you need to stay here, Arabella. It's not safe for you to be wandering around
