Chapter 136

Asher's POV

Philip only shrugged as my question reached him, "I mean, she actually does know you quite well. Well enough to know that you would reject her''.

I chuckled unbelievably, "if she knew that i was going to reject her, then why did she still try to convince me?"

Philip raised an eyebrow at me, "a few minutes ago, she was in your sheets and for some reason the act wasn't seen through, so pardon her for thinking that there may be a chance between the two of you from that alone". 

I was well aware of what I was doing wrong, of how badly I was hurting the woman that only loved me, I didn't know if there was an easy way to do this and even if there was, Devlin was not going to let me have it. She wanted Lyra completely crushed and she had successfully achieved it. If Lyra had come knowing that i would still reject her but willing to try given the fact that we had been in bed a few hours ago,
