As soon as he left the room, I got up and walked over to the window. I looked down and saw him talking with William, his Beta. I couldn't hear their conversation from where I was, but I could tell that it was serious.I quickly got dressed and left Asher's chambers, making my way to my own. I took a quick brush up, and then I set out to find Asher and find out what was going on.

ALPHA ASHER'S POV.I turned to Lia. "Hey, I need you to go back to our chambers. I can't have you out here, it's not safe," I said, my voice firm but gentle.She looked up at me with a determined expression, "I want to help. I want to be here for you," she replied.I placed a hand on her shoulder, "I know you do, but I need you to be safe.

LIA'S POVI did not leave after Asher had asked me to. I decided to hang on for a few minutes.As I walked deeper into the hospital, my nose was on high alert, picking up on every scent that crossed my path. I couldn't help but be surprised by how familiar the scent seemed. It was almost like mine, but not quite. I couldn't help but wonder if I had turned into a beast overnight, the thought made me chuckle to myself.I sniffed around, trying to figure out where the familiar scent was coming from. I walked through the hospital rooms, each one more cluttered and destroyed than the last. The doctors were all injured, some more severely than others.

But there was nothing I could do now.As I walked down the hall, I noticed a door that was slightly ajar. I pushed it open and was met with the most intense version of the scent I had been following.

"She's a grown woman, Asher. You can't force her to do things she doesn't want to do. She's probably just exploring, or maybe she wanted to help out with the investigation."I couldn't shake off the feeling of unease. "But what if something happens to her? What i
