Asher's POVI shook my head."That's not true, there's no way that her daughter isn't hers. How did you find out?"Tristan shrugged, "I have sources, Asher. I don't have the strongest pack just for show"."Prove it," I said, "prove that her daughter isn't her daughter".He shook his head like he was tired, his hands finding comfort on his waist, "you want me to prove a lot of things Asher, why don't you make a decision. What exactly do you want me to prove?""What?""You wanted me to prove that the Luna of the silver moon pack, had destroyed my pack because she is a fucking evil person and now you want me to prove that her daughter isn't her daughter? Make a decision, Asher. What do you really want?"He could have just effortlessly made the decision to tell me the two things I was inquiring about, however, Tristan would never just be so easy. He wanted to stress me, he wanted me to work for that answer. I had no clue what he was standing to gain from inflicting such on me but even if
Asher's POVI frowned at his words. Minutes ago he was hell bent on killing Luna and now he suddenly knew what he wanted. I had no idea what was going on through his mind but I was well aware that it obviously couldn't be anything good. There was no way that Tristan had good intentions, probably he was off to do something that was almost as bad as murder or maybe even worse than that."What do you mean?" I asked him, "what do you want?"He shook his head, "the only thing i'm granting you davide is the proof that the Luna of the silver moon pack is a vile woman and other than that, you do not possess the luxury".I nodded my head, somehow, I planned to find out myself. Tristan would obviously refuse to tell me all that I needed to know and so I vowed that in any way possible, I was going to find out about all that I needed to know. I really want to know if he had been telling the truth, that Devlin wasn't the real heir, I wanted to know if he had any idea who the real heir was. And kno
Asher's POVWhether or not I wanted to stay, she didn't want me to stay. She wanted nothing more to do with me and I so I was inclined to do what she wanted.I walked out of the dungeon and made my way to Philip. However I didn't know what to say nor how to say it. Tristan's desire for revenge may not be as unreasonable as we thought. I didn't know how to tell him we could've been wrong that he was actually right to feel this way.I didn't know how to tell him that he had betrayed his best friend for nothing.It was my fault. I was the one that recruited him without any hard proof to support my claim, and because he was in love with Lyra, he agreed to the rubbish I was saying that I had said to him."Fuck!" I said."Fuck!""Fuck it!"I grabbed hair and kicked at the earth like it was what had propelled me to have done something so unreasonable.I didn't know why I was acting this way. I felt conflicted.There was the possibility that Tristan was saying the truth and that would mean th
Asher's POVI saw the confusion in his frown, he was looking at me like I was speaking Japanese and, like I was some sort of weirdo.No one could blame me, I couldn't understand why he wasn't getting angry. He was weird, normally, he was supposed to be angry, he was supposed to blame me and scream and yell that I was being stupid, that i ruined his life, I ruined the friendship he had with Tristan just because of some sort of words from a woman who would soon turn out to be a victim of Tristan's, of course she would want to save herself. Of course she had been lying.But he wasn't saying those things.He looked like he understood me, like he understood me, he understood that I had been led astray as well. He understood that as long as there was any form of hope to save the silver moon pack from Tristan's wrath, I was gonna take it.He looked at me like he trusted me blindly."Why am I like what?" He asked."Nice," I demonstrated by gesturing to his person, "you blindly trust me, a man
Lyra's POVI had no clue if it was how his voice sounded or how his eyes looked when he came into the light, but there was something very compelling in his features when his eyes met mine. He was looking at me like he was trying to convince me that his words were true and that he wasn't in any way playing with me."As you are mine".It kept replaying over and over again in m head kike a melody stuck in my brain. Coming from him, it could be regarded as the sweetest melody. However, I was now deaf.I was too familiar with the lifestyle of this man, I was so familiar with the way he talked and how he moved that I can no longer trust that his words were true. This could be another tactic of his to want to use me. I had no idea what he wished to use me for, how I am benefiting him but he kept on making it very obvious that he really wants me in his bed.Of course, I'm only useful for sex and nothing more.I shook my head.I cannot allow him to deceive me any further, one time was a mistak
Asher's POVMy heart was beating fast against my chest. There was literally only one word echoing in my head. However, there wasn't a direct order to it. My head was aching towards it like it was the truth but my heart was stubborn, finding loopholes, trying not to believe what my head was telling me.It was improbable that what I was thinking was the reality because of the time span.Still, I opened my mouth and asked him:"Are you the father?"What he did was to simply laugh like i just cracked a joke. He laughed so heartily and mockingly that I wanted the ground to open up an swallow me. It felt as if I had been stupid for making such an assumption when in reality, it was the only assumption I could make.He was willing to accept the child, he was sort of happy even and I wasn't. I was the total opposite and she was my mate. It was totally rational lf me to not be able to accept it. But he did, he chose to accept her like it was something so casual."What would make you think in su
Asher's POVWe met up with lyra, and just like I thought she would react to me showing even the most miniscule of my feelings for her, she got angry and lashed out at me. I wanted Philip to see this very well, because of the stupid idea he possessed that I was the reason why things weren't working out between Lyra and I.His words had left me in a state that I would've preferred not to be. I was doubting and asking myself if really I was the cause of the whole situation but summoning up the courage and throwing caution to the wind by telling Lyra she was important to me made me especially realize the problem wasn't with me.But I guess a part of Philip was right. I did feel shame for being with lyra before and that's why I was so adamant against even entertaining the idea that she was my mate. And yes, k also abhorred the fact that she wasn't a highborn because I knew well what that would do to my position as the alpha.These were the things that deep down i had bee trying to suppress
Lyra's POVI frowned, the news Philip just told me caused a bile to rise in my throat. It wasn't that Tristan wasn't an attractive man because he is. These friends were all attractive. He had the same dirty blonde long hair that Philip had but Asher's was a bit different.Them telling me that there was something in Tristan that likes me was quite disgusting and unbelievable because he is such a bad person and we're known for being against each other in all that we do, he cannot claim that he likes me, or rather fancies me. He cannot say that I am the reason he's deciding not to kill all of them.Though I may not know anything about Tristan but something tells me that he is not a simp, he isn't the kind of person that would drop everything for love. And this isn't even love, this is a misunderstanding and he claims he wouldn't enact his revenge because of such?That's a lie.He probably doesn't like me, he probably has another plan up his sleeves and also, he probably has found out abo
