Lyra's POV

Devlin looked at me like I was crazy. What I had said had been just speculation, just a spur of the moment words and it was never something i had thought about before.

Devlin's face turned ugly when she heard those words like they had shocked her like electricity and i also felt the same, i had also been shocked by what i had said but it didnt mean that i was going to back down. I stood my ground, never let my expression gave away the fact that I was so unsure and scared about what would happen next. I know Devlin to be a very irrational woman and I feared what her next move would be.

"Are you crazy?! She yelled. "Are you insane?"

Before i could understand what was going on, try to find words that will calm the situation down, i felt a hand land on my cheek heavily and the force pushed me to the ground.

I was shocked. I laid on the grass grabbing my cheek, tears streaming from my eyes.

"What is wrong with you?!" I heard a voice say.

I looked up, hoping it was Asher, praying

    Asher's POVThose words from Lyra had been a bit overstretched. I had heard of such things happening but it couldn't be that Devlin would've pulled up such a move. The pieces werent adding up because there was no way that Devlin would've been abke to know the smell to steal becauee what if Lyra wasn't acrually my mate.And I have known Devlin all my life and i know for a fact that she had only met Lyra when she started working as a slave and not anywhere else. Lyra had not been particularly interesting until she was taken by the rogues, there had been nothing quite fascinating about her. Yes, ger ugliness had been somethinh worth noticing but if course, it had not been a concern of Devlin's.Those were the things I used to figure out that Lyra's words had veen farfetched, she wanted so desperately to be known as my mate. It should be a pleasure to be wanted so recklessly by a woman but somehow, I just found it too extreme. It was like she was obsessed with the idea of being my mate. E

    Lyra's POVWhen my eyes met his, I quickly backed away. I knew he would come looking for me, I had heard something he surely did not want anyone to find out and I had heard it loud and clear. Devlin was planning an attack on Tristan's pack and from what I heard, it seemed to be sooner than I thought.I heard Asher's footsteps approaching and I quickly sneaked away. I had spent quite a number of days in this dungeon and I was confident in my ability to hide away or to escape at will. I quickly tiptoed out through the side door where I knew for certain that Asher had no clue existed. It was the door that that guard had brought me in when he had tried to rape me. I couldn't believe that somehow, I was thinking that it had been a good thing. Maybe somehow it was because ita coming in handy now.I walked through the door and was met with darkness. It was a small room and from what I deduced from being in the poorly illuminated room was that the door I walked in through was the only way in

    Asher's POVI was speechless at what Tristan said, maybe if I didn't have secrets I was hoarding in my heart about the attack on his pack, I would have had something to say to him. But now, I was just staring at him like a dumb fool.I couldn't let my fears make me open my mouth, there waa a lot that I would be losing and also I would be bringing Devlin into such a harm. I didn't want to do that, I didn't want to be the cause of anything bad to happen to her when I knew that every emotional pain that she had had since we met had been because of me. I couldn't live with knowing that I would have kept this secret but I didn't because I was terrified of Tristan.Tristan was looking at me as dumbly as I was looking at him. He had a look in his eyes like he was trying to read me for any sort of emotion or ideas. I didn't blame him though, he was leading a big pack, surrounded by people who he couldn't trust and it was normal for this distrust to surface.Nevertheless, I had to keep my cool

    Asher's POV"If anything like this happens to her again, please tell me instead of bringing her to the comfort of your bed".I was speechless, I had literally no words for Philip. He had a certain look in his eyes like he was angry. I couldn't say if he hated me or not, he and I had never really engaged in a conversation that would make me dig deeper into the kind of mindset he had. But he was making these assumptions and I didn't know why.I knew they were assumptions because he shouldn't get so angry just because Lyra was laying on my bed, it wasn't as if I took advantage of her or we did anything consensual. Though, I did knock her out but I had a good enough reason for it and he didn't even know that but here he was making these wild assumptions like I wanted anything from her. He was the one who found her eye catching for reasons I do not and will never understand. Because he thinks she's pretty doesn't mean everyone feels the same. He just feels proud just because she has a bang

    Lyra's POVI woke up with a aching feeling at the back of my head. It was excruciating. I wanted to sleep some more thinking that if I did then maybe the pain would go away. I turned in my bed to assume a more comfortable position but as i did, I felt someone close to me.I opened my eyes instantly and the washed over me like a waterfall. I remembered what had happened and what caused me to fall asleep. The pain had been caused by Asher. I couldn't believe that he had pulled such a trick because he was trying to protect Devlin. I didnt know anything about asher anymore. The man who i had loved dearly, the man who i acknowledge as the greatest person in the world. The man who I was grateful that was my mate was gone like the gust of a wind and the person I was seeing now was not in anyway the man in my heart. Asher had changed overnights he had transformes into someone unrecognizable and it made me.wondee if this really was his true self and that what inhad faked for was just a facade,

    Lyra's POVThe look on Philip's face changed, he had a frown etched on his face after I said those words. He was looking at me like he was trying to guess what imesnt by tjose words when in actuality it was just the truth but of course I couldn't ease the tension in his heart by telling him the truth so I had to keep looking at him like I was oblivious about what he really wanted.I stayed still trying to act innocent. I didnt wsnt him to ever doubt my intention because my intention was never bad towards him. All I was trying to do at the moment was protect Asher, who acrually didn't deserve it.Philip was frowning at me, he was stopping himself from.asking what the deal.was with Asher, I coukd see that he was giving me the space I needed, hebwas giving me the time I needed to truat him, he knew I had only just met him that I couldn't possibly just trust him.mow or.be able to confide in him.

    Lyra's POV.The men were standing by the door staring at the both of us, but I wasn't sure Devlin knew that they were there, possibly she thought the door just opened because why else would she be standing there on the same spot, glaring at me like i had done something bad to her when in actuality I was the one that was wronged in that gruesome manner.She was frowning and I knew she wanted me to hurt more than I already was. She was angry with me, she was very angry but I didn't care because that anger could not be acted upon seeing that Philip had come. He would always come to my rescue. I didn't have to wait for Asher or Tristan, Philip was all I needed. And I was right about it, he immediately rushed to my side and wrapped his hands around me.Devlin saw him and her face changed, the color drained from her face and she turned around immediately only to be met with Asher's glare and Tristan's disappointed look.Tristan, the man who had been flirting with her for as long as I could

  • The Alpha's Triplets With a Rejected Mate   Chapter 85

    Asher's POVI was looking at them strangely and they were also looking at me just as strangely. I had no words for them, inhad nothing to say or do but only waited for them to tell me who they thought the snitch was. My mind was going places and my heart was beating fast. A part of me believed that they were going to accuse me of being the snitch. It all made sense to me why Tristan would suddenly start behaving like that. He was opely flirting with Devlin, he paid me no respect and said some things out of anger or something along the line. I didn't know what to think.but I surely would not be surprised if they said i was the one.It wouldn't shock me with Philip either, recently, he had grown to hate me too buts seeng that Devlin had hurt Lyra when I was standing there and also, he had found Lyra passed out in my room, on my bed. There wasn't an explanation for that and he didnt really demanded for one. If he had maybe I would've told him the truth but he just assumed the worst of me

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.

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.

He just tied it around hisbface and instantly he blended with the group. So djd Lyra.I did the same."Well," Asher said, "be careful". Again he was here with his advice.
