LIA'S POV.As I was being wheeled out of the laboratory, I could feel the weight of my body increasing, and I couldn't move a muscle. It was as though every drop of energy had been drained from my body. The white tiles on the wall and ceiling above me seemed to move in a blur, as my eyes refused to focus. My heartbeat was the only sound I could hear, and it sounded so weak.The wheels of the gurney screeched loudly on the smooth tiled floor, and I couldn't help but wonder where they were taking me. The machines attached to my body beeped rhythmically, and I tried to focus on the sound, hoping that it would calm me down.As we moved further down the hallway, I could see the silhouettes of several people in white coats walking around, and I couldn't help but wonder if they knew what was going on. I tried to call out to them, but my voice was nothing but a weak whisper. Nobody paid me any attention, and we continued down the hall.We finally reached a large steel door, and Alpha Lance an
ASHER'S POV.As I was about to embark on my mission to rescue Lia, I was interrupted by one of my guards. He informed me that a very dangerous woman had just entered the Pack. My mind immediately went to Raya, Lia's sister. I was filled with anger and worry at the same time. I rushed towards the boundary, hoping to intercept her before she could cause any harm.But to my surprise, Raya was already coming towards me with a taunting chuckle. I growled at her, my anger boiling inside of me. How dare she show up here after what she did to Lia? I glared hard at her, trying to suppress my urge to pounce on her.As I look over Raya, I can see that she is dressed just as I would have expected an assassin to be. She's wearing a tight-fitting black bodysuit that clings to her every curve, making her look even more dangerous and deadly. The suit seems to be made of some kind of synthetic material that almost shimmers in the light, giving her an almost ethereal quality.The bodysuit is designed t
LIA'S POV.I open my eyes and see a group of people standing around me. My head feels heavy and my body feels numb. I try to speak, but my voice is weak and barely audible. Am I dead? Is this the afterlife?Then I see Alpha Ryan, and I'm filled with a sudden rage. How dare he kidnap me and bring me to this place? I try to scream at him, but my throat is dry and it hurts to even make a sound. I glare at him with all the anger I can muster.One of the doctors says something about it working, and I wonder what they're talking about. What's working on me? I force myself to remain calm and try to observe my surroundings.The room is sterile and bright, with machines beeping and whirring in the background. Wires and tubes are attached to my body, leading to machines and monitors that I don't understand. I see the doctors watching me, their expressions intense and focused.I start to feel extremely tired, like my body is being pulled into a deep sleep. I try to fight it, but the exhaustion i
LIA'S POV.I wake up to the sound of chaos. There are people running everywhere, shouting orders and commands. Confusion overwhelms me as I try to get my bearings, but it's hard to focus with so much commotion going on around me.I'm lying on a table, surrounded by strange machines and equipment. And then, as my eyes finally adjust to the bright lights, I see Alpha Lance standing over me, a murderous look on his face.Before I can even process what's happening, a guard runs in and delivers the news that the Pack is being approached by a hostile group, and they appear to be preparing for war.My heart races as I realize that this could be my chance to escape. But before I can even move, Lance barks orders at the scientists to finish their experiment.I hear the sound of wheels and machinery as they rush to get me out of the room. I know that I must fight, that I can't let them restrain me again.I try to struggle, but the restraints are too strong. Panic sets in as I realize that time
ASHER'S OVAs we approached Lance's pack boundary, my heart began to race. The adrenaline was pumping through my veins, and my mind was focused solely on the task at hand. I knew that this could be a dangerous mission, but I was determined to rescue Lia and bring her back home safely. Raya and his warriors were by my side, and we were all prepared for whatever may come our way.As we neared the pack boundary, Lance's guards came into view. They were large and muscular, with sharp claws and teeth that could easily tear through flesh. They growled at us as we approached, their eyes narrowing with suspicion and hostility. I knew that we were intruders in their territory, and they were ready to defend it at all costs.Just as we got within striking distance, Lance's guards received an order to attack us. They lunged forward, their claws and teeth bared in fury. We met their attack head-on, engaging them in a fierce battle that lasted several minutes. Raya and his warriors fought valiantly
Alpha Asher.As we entered Alpha Lance's Pack, the tension was palpable. We had fought our way through the first line of defense, but we knew that there were more warriors waiting for us. I signaled to my warriors to stay alert, and we proceeded cautiously, keeping our eyes peeled for any signs of an ambush. Suddenly, we heard a loud roar, and Alpha Lance appeared from behind a tree, flanked by a group of fierce-looking warriors.I could sense the anger emanating from him as he barked out orders to his men. "Kill them! Don't let them get away!" he shouted. We were ready for this. I signaled to my warriors, and we launched ourselves at the enemy. The battle was fierce and fast-paced. We were outnumbered, but we fought like our lives depended on it.I could see Raya moving quickly, taking down one warrior after another. She was like a blur, her movements so fast that it was almost impossible to keep up with her. I had never seen anyone fight like her before. The warriors of Alpha Lance
RAYA'S POV.I set off the next morning, determined to find a seer who can help us locate Lia. Asher's guards are patrolling the pack, making sure that there are no more surprises from Alpha Lance's pack. I have to find a seer who can help us track Lia's scent and find her before it's too late.As I walked through the woods, I couldn't help but feel the weight of the situation on my shoulders. Lia was out there somewhere, and she was counting on me to find her. I had to find her before it was too late. As I walked, I kept my eyes open for any signs of a seer. I had heard that they could be found deep in the woods, away from civilization.After a few hours of walking, I spotted an old woman sitting by a campfire. She was dressed in rags, and her hair was wild and unkempt. I approached her cautiously, not knowing what to expect."Excuse me, ma'am," I said. "I'm looking for a seer. Can you help me?"The old woman looked up at me and smiled. "I am a seer," she said. "What do you need?"I e
RAYA'S POV.As I walked down the hallway, the floorboards creaking beneath my feet, I saw Asher disappear into his room. I hesitated for a moment, unsure if I should follow him in, but my curiosity got the better of me. I opened the door quietly and peered inside.The room was dimly lit, with only a single lamp casting a warm glow. Asher was sitting on the edge of his bed, staring out the window into the night sky. For a moment, he didn't seem to notice me there, watching him.But then, as if sensing my presence, he turned his head and met my gaze. The small smile was still there, but it had grown softer, warmer. It was as if he was genuinely happy to see me."Hey," he said, his voice low and gentle. "What brings you here?""I just wanted to check on you," I replied, taking a step into the room.He nodded, his eyes still locked on mine. "I appreciate that," he said. "But really, I'm okay."There was something in his voice that made me doubt that, but I didn't push. Instead, I walked o
LIA'S POV.I was lying on my bed, reading a book when I heard a loud scream coming from downstairs. My heart began to race as I sat up and tried to listen for any other sounds. As I stood up to leave the room, I felt something strange in my throat. It was like a lump that wouldn't go away, and it made me feel sick.I stumbled towards the door, but my legs were shaking so much that I couldn't walk properly. I knew that something was wrong, and I needed to get downstairs to find out what was happening. As I made my way down the stairs, the feeling in my throat intensified, and I began to feel dizzy.Suddenly, I knew that I was going to throw up. I tried to hold it back, but it was too late. I ran towards the restroom and barely made it in time to throw up into the toilet. The taste in my mouth was disgusting, and I felt like I was going to be sick again.After a few minutes, I managed to compose myself and rinse my mouth with water. I knew that I had to get back downstairs to find out w
ASHER'S POV.I feel like I've been carrying the weight of the world on my shoulders. The exhaustion of the past few weeks has finally caught up with me, leaving me feeling like a shadow of my former self. My mind is foggy and my thoughts are jumbled, making even the simplest tasks feel like a Herculean effort.I used to enjoy the simple things in life - a good meal, a warm shower, a book by the fire. But now, even these small pleasures have lost their appeal. My taste buds have dulled, and I can barely distinguish between flavors. The warmth of the water in the shower does little to soothe my aching muscles, and I find myself wanting to crawl back into bed instead.The world seems to be moving in slow motion, while I am stuck in quicksand. My mind is constantly racing, yet I feel like I am not making any progress. I can barely remember the last time I felt truly rested, truly at peace.I try to shake off these feelings and focus on the task at hand - the rebuilding of our Pack. But th
RAYA'S POV.I walked towards my Packhouse, my senses heightened and my heart beating with excitement. The guards all parted ways for me, as if they knew I was coming. I could sense the air of respect around me, and I couldn't help but feel a sense of pride.As I walked through the Packhouse, I saw the Alpha King seated on his throne. He looked up at me, a sly smile on her face. "Well, well, well," he said. "If it isn't the prodigal daughter returning home."I walked up to him, trying my best to maintain my composure. "Hello, Your Majesty," I said. "It's good to be back."The Alpha King raised an eyebrow. "Is it?" he said. "You've been gone a very long time, Raya. Do you know how much trouble you've caused?"I felt a shiver go down my spine. I knew that the he was just teasing me, but there was always a hint of truth to his jokes. "I'm sorry, Your Majesty," I said. "I had to take care of some things."He leaned forward. "Well, now that you're back, you'll have to make it up to us," she
RAYA'S POV.As I walked through the ruins of Lance's Pack, my heart felt heavy with satisfaction and anger of still dealing with Lance. The destruction was palpable, and it seemed to seep into every pore of my being. The air was thick with the smell of smoke and ash, and the ground beneath my feet was littered with debris.The once-beautiful buildings were now nothing but a pile of rubble and broken concrete. The walls that had once stood tall and proud were now crumbled, like a stack of cards that had been knocked down by a gust of wind. The roofs that had once protected the inhabitants of the pack were now gone, leaving only the sky above.The silence was deafening. The only sound was the gentle rustling of the leaves as the wind blew through the trees. It was as if the Pack had been frozen in time, and I was the only one left to bear witness to the destruction.I walked through the ruins, my eyes scanning the scene in front of me. The buildings that were once the center of life in
ASHER'S POV.We were met with resistance, but we fought back with all our might. The sound of shattering glass and the smell of smoke filled the air as we made our way deeper into the facility.I saw Raya's deadly accuracy with her throwing knives as she took down an enemy guard. Raya's fighting skills were impressive as she dodged a punch and kicked her opponent in the gut. The rest of our warriors were equally skilled, and it was clear that we were a formidable force.I led the charge, taking down any guard that came in our way. We made our way to the center of the lab, where Lance had kept his most powerful anomalies. They were kept in cages, and it was clear that they had been mistreated and abused.I felt my anger and disgust boil inside of me. These creatures were innocent, and they had been used as weapons by Lance. We had to put an end to it. Without hesitation, we destroyed the cages, freeing the anomalies from their captivity.As we made our way out of the lab, I could hear
ASHER'S POV.As I walked into the quarters where the warriors Raya had brought were staying, I was immediately struck by the flurry of activity. There were people everywhere, rushing around and preparing for the mission ahead. Weapons were being sharpened and polished, gear was being packed and checked, and there was a general sense of excitement and anticipation in the air.I walked through the crowds, taking in the scenery and the way the warriors were scattered in groups, talking and laughing and preparing for battle. It was clear that these were experienced fighters, each one ready and willing to do whatever it took to ensure the success of our mission.As I made my way through the bustling crowds, I eventually found myself outside of Raya's room. I hesitated for a moment, unsure if I should interrupt her, but ultimately decided that it was important to talk to her.As I opened the door, I was surprised to see Raya engaged in a passionate embrace with a man I didn't recognize. The
ASHER'S POV.As I stood on my balcony, overlooking the courtyard below, I couldn't help but feel a sense of pride in Raya. She had just returned from a meeting with the Alpha King, and she had brought back a large group of warriors with her. They were all gathered in the courtyard, discussing their plans to destroy the lab where Alpha Lance was breeding anomalies.I watched as Raya moved among them, her hair streaming behind her in the breeze. She looked fierce and determined, and I couldn't help but feel a swell of admiration for her. She had always been strong-willed and independent, and seeing her take charge like this was a sight to behold.The last mission was not any different from this one because Lance could be restructuring and regathering new warriors. It had been a dangerous mission, but we had succeeded in getting Lia back safely.Now, we were going back to Lance's Pack to destroy the lab where Lia's gene could have been used to perfect the anomalies. It was a risky plan,
ASHER'S POV.I wake up to the sound of Lia's breathing. Her eyes are still closed, but her lips are curled up in a small smile, making my heart skip a beat. I gently brush her hair away from her face and place a soft kiss on her forehead. She stirs slightly, but doesn't wake up. I get out of bed and walk to the bathroom.The warm water from the shower is soothing as it cascades down my body, washing away the sweat and dirt from last night's battle and lovemaking. My mind wanders to Lia and the way she moaned my name as we made love. The thought alone makes me hard again. I quickly finish my shower and wrap a towel around my waist before heading back to the bedroom.Lia is still asleep, but her breathing is more peaceful. I kiss her forehead again before getting dressed. As I walk out of the room, I feel a sense of excitement in my chest. I know what I want to do, and I'm eager to do it. I head down to the packhouse and meet with William, my beta, who greets me with a smile."Good morn
ASHER'S POV.As I leaned in for a kiss, I could feel the passion and desire burning inside of me. My lips met hers and the world disappeared around us. Lia kissed me back with an intensity that I had never felt before. Her lips were soft and warm, and I couldn't get enough of them.Our tongues entwined, exploring each other's mouths. I pulled her closer to me, my hands roaming over her body. Lia moaned softly, her hands gripping my shoulders. I could feel the electricity sparking between us, the chemistry palpable.As we kissed, I felt like I was finally home. Lia was my mate, my soulmate, and being with her was everything I had ever wanted. We pulled away from each other, panting and breathless.As I leaned in for the kiss, I felt a surge of electricity between us. Lia's lips were soft and warm, and her tongue danced around mine. I couldn't get enough of her. My hands roamed her body, feeling the curves and contours that I knew so well.Her body was mine, and I wanted to explore ever
