ASHER.As we walked I heard rumbles of dry sticks clattering, the sound was becoming so close that I fear Alpha Lucian's guards has caught up with me.A felt a hand snake round my waist and the grip tightened though shaking visibly. "Hey, don't be scared, we are getting out alive." I tried to put her at ease but she started to whimper."You shouldn't have rescued me, I'm used to the pains— I hate that I'm putting you through all these–" her voice wavered, tears streaking down her cheeks.I stopped walking and glanced at my back, somebody is following us, "now is not the time to cry, Lia" she shivers and sneak her eyes at me, I sneak my hand to her face and wiped the tears from falling."Now is the time to be strong, you need to stop crying." I ruffled out a small smile and turned my back to her, "hurry, climb my back let's get out of here."She dallied a little and just when I was about saying it one more time I felt her leg around my waist. I rised to my full height and carried her
ASHER.Rage builds in me like an erupting volcano as I was checking out all the victims of the warrior wolfs sent by Lucian. While Some were badly wounded and had been attended by the pack doctor, most of them were dead. My eyes was blistered at the gore sight of them, some thier heart was ripped out in their wolf form, some wildly devoured in their wolf form. I felt so much like a worthless Alpha as my eyes beheld the deceased bodies of my pack members as they were assembled at the pack den.The pack warriors had done their best in defending as much as they could so I couldn’t blame them for the unfortunate lone wolves, those fucking wolves that had attacked unaware.I swear I’m really gonna pay back Lucian In a million folds, how could he do this to the innocent just because of that pesky son of his?Lucian, I’m going to bite him in every places it hurts the most. I’ll make him realize how powerless he is by the time I have him and his entire pack beneath my feet.Leaving the den
Lia.My eyes snapped open the moment I captured a ruffling sound coming from beside me, my limbs started quivering but I managed to keep them shit and pretended to be sleeping.Minutes passed and the sounds was becoming distant, just when I wanted to peek my eyes open I felt some heat on my leg and with a jolt I sprang up."Please spare me!!" The words left my lips with haste, my hands were up above my face, shielding my head from any assault.I didn't hear a sound for some seconds but it came right when I drew a sniff, a hand rested softly on my leg and patted it slowly.Still, my eyes remain shut. I don't even want to risk seeing the face of the person going to kill me. As the hand continued to move my face pulled into a repulsive one, all I felt was Ryan's squeaky hands tracing every curve of my body.I couldn't hold it anymore so I let it out, the scream I had been holding accompanied with the fear and pains I felt having those thoughts."Get away from me!!"I made sure to scream
Alpha Asher.Her words kept me at a long depth, my head rolled back and forth as I tried to process the whole thing.Why is it that she remembers our first encounter and not the second? Who the hell is playing mind tricks on me! Dammit!!I released my hold on her shoulders and stormed out of the room, heading straight to the maids quarters."Asher," Williams stood at my front, making me stop forcefully at the process."Not now, Williams." I let out a painful hiss and made to continue my way but he grabbed my hand instead, pulling me to a corner."I just confirmed from the maids, it's Laura–""Dammit!!!" I shrieked, jerking his hand off my arm but he pulled me back again."You know how she can be, she hates the fact that you built a special connection with Lia already and that scares her." He said further trying to make me understand what I don't even want to know.My fist tightened as I stared above his shoulder, "she should fucking go to hell! How do I start explaining to her that I
.LIA.It’s the dawn of a new day And here I am still living the dream that deep within me I’d wished never to wake up from. But I know this might not last long. Soonest enough I just might wake up and continue living the slave I’d been fated to be, and not stuck here in a foreign pack living the queen that I’m not.Yesterday, the Alpha had told me I’ll be meeting some people of the royal blood. Honestly I don’t think I’m ready to meet anyone but who am I to question him?this morning, maids had been at my beck running around. First they’d prepared a warm bath for me and adorned it with roses, if not that I Literally begged them not to assist me to bath, they would had done that for me too.They brought some clothes which according to them was from Alpha Asher and then they helped me in them. Fully dressed in expensive looking dress which was adored in gold, I look just like a Luna.And just like a Luna, I was accompanied by the maids down to the Alpha’s main chamber for breakfast.
LIA.He dropped me daintily on the bed like I was an egg that shouldn't be cracked, causing tingly feelings to flush through me.Never had I imagined that a day would come when a girl like me would be treated like royalty, would be cared for. . . Not even in my craziest dreams."Lia please be careful," he spoke the exact moment I felt the bed dip, indicating that he sat on it.He held my leg, inspecting the bruise on me knee, his finger grazing it slightly, causing me to wince at the contact."It's not that bad," he stated, lifting his head to meet my gaze, causing a beautiful warm candle to light up within me."What were you looking at when she fell?" He turned to the maids who had their heads bowed, fury flames burning in his eyes that I was scared he'd hurt them."It-it's okay Asher, it's nothing serious. I'll be fine in a few days," I said in a bit to calm his fury."It could have been worse," he retorted, his voice low and hoarse, anger clearly still seeping through."I am fine
Lia.The car galloped into the streets and I pulled my head out of the window, letting the breeze take control of my hair.It's been ages since I journeyed in a car, I mostly take the walkways while sometimes I take the bus. There's never been a time I rode in a car, not once.And here I am, luxury knocking at my feets with maids at my neck and calling, the goddess finally shone her lights upon me.I exhaled deeply and pushed my head back into the car."You okay?" Pedro asked absentmindedly."Yeah" I mused a reply."How long have you been schooling here?" He asked as he made a quick swerve into the school compound."A year and half," he spared me a glance, "my uncle sent me here to monitor something for him." I revealed the ugly truth.He snatched his eyes from the road and stared at me, his eyes piercing deep into my skin."He really benefited from it huh, I see you're the reason why he knows our every move." His words sliced through my ears like a sharp edged knife.What does he me
Asher."Just calm down a bit Asher, you're rushing things!" Williams shouted, causing me to huff.I turned to glare at him, "calm down you say? How am I supposed to do that, eh?" I smirked and pushed him off my way."Search all the rooms, corners, make sure nowhere is left unsearched." I shouted out to the guards."Yes my Alpha!!" They bowed in unison and ran out of my sight.We were outside the Lalunga pack, we've searched the entire district and if she's not found I will take the search to Moon pack, I strongly believe Alpha Lucian has something to do with this.Lia can't just disappear into thin air, she barely knows this place and the guards at the gates confirmed not letting any woman out so how then did she vanish.I threw my fingers into my hair and groaned in frustration. I heard footsteps behind me and turned to know who it was.It was Williams, he walked to me with dropped shoulders and held my face closer to his."Use the mate thing" he whispered coozily and I shot my eyes
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
