Lyra's POV

The second I heard Devlin's voice, I knew that this was going to be a very unpleasant meet. Devlin had no reason to like me and moreso she had caught me staring at Asher the other day which provoked her insecurity and hate towards me.

Devlin didn't like me and she was sure as hell not to even hide her hatred for me.

When she stopped in front of us, she looked at me and her Nana, frowning as if her food had been poisoned, but I knew her ill feeings were only directed at me ans it was because of her hatred for me that made her have that look in her eyes.

"What's going on, Nana?" She asked again.

The elder smiled lovingly, "I met this girl and she seems quite lovely, dont you think so?"

Devlin frowned, "Nana, whats so lovely about this eyesore? You shouldn't be wasting your time staring at her, nobody will judge you for not liking her appearance".

The elder frowned, "Devlin, you shouldn't be talking that way. She's quite lovely" she smiled at me.

Devlin shook her head l

    Asher's POV I have never thought that our first time together would be so amazing. Though Devlin didn't move around so much, I appreciated that she let me take control and the fact that I couldn't see her expression was a downer but at the same time it made me wonder how she looked like when she moaned out my name. I couldn't get the sound of her screaming my name out of my head, I had found myself in a sort of trance, unable to ven think of other things. The only thing I could see was how her lips quivered, how she held the sheets of the bed and how her eyes looked like when they rolled over to the back of her head. I liked how I could see the pleasure she was feeling through her eyes and her lips, I could feel the intensity in her fingers as she ran them through my back scratching me as I moved in and out of her. It was mesmerizing and I enjoyed it a lot and I knew she loved it too. After all was done, she had slept off probably tired, it was her first time and I saw it in the

    Lyra's POV. The look on Asher's face was horrifying, he was looking at me so strangely, and I was terrified. I felt tears falling down my eyes as I stared at him. I was extremely worried about what he was going to do. I couldn't even guess what he meant by those words that he would never let me go, and I knew that it wasn't a good thing and I shouldn't feel excited about it. But somehow, I did; somehow, my heart melted at his words even though they were obviously a threat. "Please let me go, I beg of you." Asher shook his head, "No. You made me commit such a heinous crime, and you made me cheat on Devlin. You deceived me, and you're a fucking slut. You should be ashamed of yourself!" "Tell me, how many mean have you played such tricks on? How many people have you seduced? How many have you deceived?" I frowned, yes, it happened, but he was there, and he saw it himself that he was my first. I didn't bring myself to his room, I didn't choose to wake up at that time, nor did I unde

    Lyra's POV After walking out of Devlin, I didn't want to go back home. I honestly couldn't put up with my mother and I had no desire to see her. I knew if I were to return home that I was going to end up thinking about Asher and the weird conversation we both had. It was evident that he didn't like me and to say that it hurts was an understatement, I was in pain and I was almost being torn apart. He had not officially rejected me but I could see it in his eyes that if it so happened that I became his mate, he was going to surely reject me. I was ready for such but I was only being delusional because Asher's mate was Devlin and that would not change. Probably the reason why he waa my mate was because the universe hated me and wished me nothing but pain. I was in pain, with my mom, with Devlin and with Asher. All areas of my life were nothing but pain. I could tell that though Macy understood my and where I was coming from she was still very much disgusted, she must be asking herse

    Lyra's POV It was shocking to see Steven there, all this time I have never seen him in Macy's shop before but thinking about it, maybe he has been here the days when I wasn't here. He was looking at me with a smile, like we were very acquainted with each other when it wasn't the case. As he made his way over to where Macy and I were standing, I shifted in my.seat and shifted a bit away from him just so I wouldn't be intruding on his personal space. He smelled good, almost like Asher but there was an obvious difference. He smelled like the forest after a downpour, the leaves after the sun had shone on them. It was indeed mesmerizing. Macy's aura changed, she donned the look of a professional, looking like she indeed knew what she was doing running a business such as this. She grabbed a notebook and a pen and smiled politely at Steven, he returned the smile with a crease appearing beside his eyes. "What can I get you please?" Macy asked. Steven thought for a while, or rather l

    Asher's POV. I hadn't expected that coming into this store I would come face to face with Lyra again, especially after seeing her just minutes ago and fighting about what had happened between us. She had said so many things to me, making me feel that maybe I was also at fault for everything that happened between us that night. It seemed far-fetched that she smelled like Devlin but there was no way that I would have no clue about how Devlin smelled like. J couldn't stop thinking about how similar they smelled like, there was not even a little disparity between their smells. They both smelled the same way and it was understandable that Lyra would not believe my words. She thought everyone was like her, she thought we were all as dirty and disgusting as she was. Seeing her again, I was utterly disgusted, everything about her was giving me a headache and I hated that she was walking the face of the earth just like me. It would've been more bearable if she was millions of miles away

  • The Alpha's Triplets With a Rejected Mate   Chapter 26

    Lyra's POV. The minute I saw Asher I knew that the day wouldn't bode well for me. He walked into the shop and I was the first place where his eyes fell on and I could see that he wasn't exactly happy to see me. There was an anger in his eyes, there was also disgust as he looked at me. His eyes moved to my hand that Steven was holding and instinctively, without even thinking about it, I removed my hand and even further created a distance between Steven and I. It was after I had done all that I realized that I did something quite stupid. Asher didn't like me, he didn't care who I was with and I was pretty sure my whole existence disgusted him so why would I even bother to try to make him understand that there was nothing going on with Steven. If he wanted to assume that Steven and I were going out or doing anything other than being mere acquaintances, it was cool with me. I owe Asher no explanation whatsoever. The only explanation I owed him was the one from sleeping with him withou

    Lyra's POV As those words left Asher, I was dumbfounded, I had wanted to beg him, to plead with him for forgiveness but he said those words and moreso in the presence of so many people. It didn't take long for then to open their mouths and start laughing at me, they laughed for a long time while I stood there as the object of their entertainment. I was dejected, I had resigned to understand thatbthis was yhe life Asher wanted me to live for the rest of my life. This was what I had become just because of one mistake. My kife had never been roses and daffodils, but it was never so painful, it didnt hurt kike it was hurting me right now. I wanted to die, I wantes to end everything because I was embarrassed, heartbroken and regretful. Asher had every reason to hate me, Asher could run his dager through me and I would understand that it was all my fault bexause really, it was. My kife was a shit show and it was nobody's fault but mine. I wanted to wail, to cry, to scream and beg Ash

    Lyra's POV My heart skipped a beat as he said those words. I had been a bit relieved that he hadn't mentioned anything about that night and from the looks of it, he wanted to keep it a secret from the people that shouldn't know kf such things. Somehow, I was surprised he was smart enough to make such a decision but then I thought that even though he did tell everyone that it was my fault, there may be people who woukd blame him too. People who woukd see that he wasn't without fault. It was unexpected when a figure came in front of me and knekt down to Asher. It was Macy, she went on her knees as she begged Asher, with her hands together and tears jn her eyes, she began to olead with Asher: "I promise you Asher, Lyra knows her place. It was her faukt for talking to you in such a rude tone and please I plead for her sake. Please do not punish her, do not punish her. She is a good person". Asher kaughed out loud as if Macy had cracked a very funny joke. "Lyra is not a good person".

I think the person who poisoned you was Steven."I shook my head as I began to feel by body vibrate with the sense of being betrayed. Incident know I'd trusting Devlin's words were the right thing to do but at the moment, it made sense.He was the one that the assasin hadbeen warning me about. He was the person that was close to me thst wanted me dead. I didnt know why hebwas behaving kike that.

What would make you think I'm lying?"She suddenly went quiet and her whose focused somewhere else, "what are you saying?" She asked, "Philip isn't with you?"I shook my head, "he isn't, and if you say he's not here then I have no fucking clue where he is".

The spaces between people kept getting more narrow and weaving through them became a huge hassle.I downed the alcohol in a go and then kept the glass on a nearest table before finding a way to swim through the sea of people, so that I could use the bathroom.I didn't even know where the bathroom was located.I looked around some more. Everybody wore masks and I was sure even the celebrant had her own mask. I suspected this because everywhere I've looked, I haven't seen her face. Akk I could see were different colors, shiny or dull and just eyes.I wasn't particularly looking for her fir I had nothing to say to her, anybody that could lead me to the bathroom right now was going to do me a huge favour."Asher?"I immediately turned around and saw a woman standing behind me.She wore a silver dress embedded with stones that glistened under the light. Her hair was shirt and brown and so were her eyes.
