Asher's POV

I was happy to hear that she had finally agreed to send her troops to both places. To be honest, I had no idea who to trust, I wanted to believe that Philip was right but Catherina's point made lots of sense.

And then there was also how easy it was for him to spot the house Tristan might be in. To tell the truth, it could be that he was lying to us about everything and that he was actually in cahoots with Tristan, and his main mission was to lead us away from the truth.

I was being paranoid, granted. But this was about Lyra and I was not about to just trust anyone and anything when her safety was in the picture.

"So when do you people intend to go after him?" Catherina asked.

"As soon as possible, so tonight"

"Tonight?" Both Catherina and I asked in unison as we stared at the very unhinged Philip.

He looked between the two of us as if we were crazy, "yes, you have the troops prepared and we have botb locations pinned, so what's stopping us from leaving tonight?"

    Chapter 218Asher's POVPhilip shook his head, "it doesn't necessarily mean he's in love with her. It's just maybe like what you and I have".I frowned in confusion, "what do we have?"Philip smiled, "a friendship." I shook my head at him, looking away from him, "they may just be friends"."Fine," I said.I thought back to what had just transpired, everything that he had told me about this, "why didn't you tell Catherina this?"He laughed, "she already thinks I'm a horrible person, that I'm exactly like Tristan and you want me to tell her the truth, don't you think she will have a lot to say?"I laughed, I understood what he meant. Just the thought of Philip having access to many police sites irked her. If she found out that he had a spy in Tristan's army, she would surely think the worst and it was something we could not afford to risk. She may even decide to call off her army, forgetting that we all had a common goal."Si are we going to fo this behind her back?" I asked him."Do we

    Asher's POV The way she ran into his arms could not leave my brain. At every turn, every single thing I did, I was reminded of what had happened and how I felt so very ridiculed. Maybe she had seen me, maybe she had not seen me, but it doesn't change the fact that she had chosen to run into his arms, that she had chosen to find solace in him. I thought back to the things that I have learned about Philip these days that we were together, from his father to his training and to all the ways he was talented. I wondered if knowing all of this was going to change the way she felt about him. I had no idea how exactly she felt about him but seeing as she was willing and able to.run into his arms ignoring my complete existence then surely she must feel something for him. Maybe not love, but she had feelings. After she had jumped on him in such a hug, she passed out instantly. I figured she must've been stressed, she must've been angry or maybe she had just been completely hateful and when t

    Asher's POVI almost hit the brakes at what he just said. I quickly spun my head around to look at him, to catch the ghost of a smile that usually played on his lips when he jokes. But there was none, all there was on his expression was a look of pure emptiness as if he was a void being with no life, no desires, just pure nothing.I looked away from him, I had no idea what I was feeling in my heart but the emotion had deep similarities with fear.Fuck, I was afraid.The people that Tristan was acquainted with, the people he called his family, the people he called his friends were no people that one wanted to offend. I looked to the backseat of the car where Lyra laid fast asleep.I could tell that she had no idea about this bit, that she was more or less clueless about the fact that there would be consequences upon killing Tristan."So what are we gonna do?"As if expecting the question, Philip replied almost instantly, "I'm gonna take the blame. If people think that I'm the one who.k

    Asher's POVThe rest of the drive was done in silence, but there no longer existed that thick air around that had made me unable to breathe before, the thick air that made me start asking Philip some questions.I took in a deep breath as I drove in the dark going straight to the mansion where Lyra belonged, where her mother was waiting for us.I had lied to Philip. I knew exactly what was going to happen when we got there. Though Catherina was an unpredictable woman, I could predict how her reaction would be. How everything was going to turn out.She was going to be furious.Although we must've lost maybe two men from the troop we had stolen, but Catherina would not give any fuck. As long as she had been disobeyed, that was what she was going to hang on to.It didnt matter if we came back with Lyra and a map to a fucking gold mine, she would still be outraged. She would be furious.I just didn't let Philip know about this fact because I didn't want him to worry, he already had so much

    Asher's POVBefore Philip could finish the job, I immediately ran towards him at a speed that was faster than that of the fastest human alive. I wrapped my fingers around Philip's wrist, stopping him from completing his mission."Hold on, we need to find out what's going on".Philip omitted strong killing intent that succeeded in pushing me away from him. I looked at him, feeling the overpowering pressure of his killing intent weighing down on him."Philip," I called, "you need to calm down"."He broke in," Philip said, "tried to kill me". His voice was scarily calm.I knew that Philip would be taking advantage of this because he wasn't really in a good mood to begin with and this assassin just served himself on a platter for Philip."I don't know who they are, but I was shot at in my room by an arrow," Catherina said.I turned to her, "let's check it out".He gave Philip a look as if begging him to not be so unmerciful, to not be so cruel. Philip did not seem to care at first but I c

    Asher's POV"That's bullshit," Philip said, chuckling a bit."It's not impossible. I mean you were the only one who was with her, who knew exactly what she was going through and even gave her a befitting company, why can't she fall in love with you?" I asked. "We're not even adding the fact that you're very charming, so obviously she would like you".Philip laughed again, this time louder than before. But then he heard Lyra turn behind him. He closed his mouth instantly and gestured to the door."I don't want to wake her up, let's leave".Catherina obliged with no contradictory words. Whenever it had to do with lyra, she was willing to do anything that would give the poor girl comfort because she knew that there was no way the poor girl would be comfortable around her.They all walked out, Philip closed the door behind him."What are we going to do about the body?" I suddenly asked. They must've all forgotten that inside the room lay a corpse.Philip chuckled again which got mea bit w

    Asher's POVI chuckled nervously at those words from Philip. I was well aware that Philip was well known for being the evil twin of Tristan. For every terrible thing that Tristan did, it was believed that Philip was there as well. Philip's own secret, his drama wasn't popularly known. So some people might not know him by his name but by his association with Tristan.But that was enough to send people away.Catherina was right, strength, power, neither of them.was measured by the amount of people that one had killed, though it was the case with Philip, there was just another truth.He surely had strength, had skill, had power, but he did go around killing the people who presented themselves to be killed. He was generous that way, offering death to whoever demands it.Finally, Catherina stopped at her door, she turned around to look at them with a smile on her face. From beside me, Philip groaned, "don't tell me you want us to check out the room as well".Catherina's smile fell, "even i

I suddenly got tired and then I left the party after searching around for the both of you. 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.
