[Chloe’s POV]I stormed out of the house, ignoring Thia and Ashton’s questioning gazes. I was beginning to get sick of this. Anytime I mentioned my visions, I was simply told that they were nightmares, even when each and every one comes true."Dammit." I growled, looking towards the house where my s
[Leah’s POV]I stared at Chloe for a moment more, before gritting my teeth and racing forward. I would have to worry about how she knew my secret later. Right now, I needed to save my mate."Wait for me!" Chloe called, rushing up behind me."Stay back." I warned. "When I let go, I can’t control it."
‘Are you thinking of something dirty?’I bit back the scream that wanted to escape as Asher’s voice popped in my head. Shit, I thought he was asleep, but he was clearly just resting his eyes.‘Might want to look normal or they’ll get suspicious.’ He continued.‘Get out of my head.’ I warned him, not
[Asher’s POV]I kept my gaze firmly fixed on Leah as she studied me carefully. What in the world was she thinking behind those guarded eyes?"I’ll find her something of Tatiana’s." Ian responded, drawing my attention back to him. "For the time being, she can clean your wounds. They’re starting to he
"Then why don’t you?" Ian asked, crossing his arms. "Maybe she will be able to help you.""There’s no helping me."After dabbling in the dark arts, I looked high and low for a way to reverse the toll it would eventually take on me. However, no amount of searching brought anything to light."Aren’t y
[Asher’s POV]I could feel Leah’s perfect body shivering below mine as I pressed my mouth against hers again and tugged at her shirt. Now that I had let myself give in to desire, there was no going back."W-wait…" Leah gasped as I began to pull her shirt up above her bare breasts. "We can’t...""We
[Asher’s POV]I sat on the porch watching the street for Thia’s car. Despite telling myself everything would be okay, I was nervous. I was nervous about facing Thia after hurting her sister and about facing my daughter properly for the first time. It all left me a bundle of nerves, and when Thia fi
‘Don’t you fucking touch her!’ I growled, trying to control the rage that was beginning to build in me over him having the audacity to threaten my mate.‘Then you better get here in the time allotted.’As Kelvin finishes speaking, I can feel him pull away, cutting off our mindlink. Taking a few deep
Ouch…"Anyway," Chloe continued, looking into the distance once again. "I’ve been observing you all morning and you’ve been acting strangely. If you don’t get it together, they’re going to grow suspicious. ""I..." I began, but stopped as Chloe got up and wiped dirt from her pants."That was all I w
[Asher’s POV]A gasp escaped me as my eyes flew open. What was… lifting a hand, I touched my forehead to find it covered in sweat. Sitting up, I watched as a black comforter fell down my body, revealing perfectly smooth skin."My scars..." I murmured as my memories of everything that happened up to
[Asher’s POV]"Asher!"Antoine’s voice drifted through the roar of the power I was slowly drawing in as Selene struggled to break free. From the sound of his tone, I knew that he already had an idea of what I was about to do and wanted to stop me."Stay back!" I called, turning to meet his terrified
[Asher’s POV]Jumping up, I kept Leah close to me as I drew on my power once again. The duo would pay dearly for what they had done. And then, once I was done with them, I would go and join Leah."Asher!" Antoine called as footsteps began to make their way towards me. "You need to calm down.""Calm
[Leah’s POV]"Stop it!" I shrieked, shoving Selene aside. "You’re hurting him!"Behind me, I could hear the yells of my comrades, but I wasn’t about to stop now. Sucking in a breath, I lifted my fingers and began to wipe the blood from Asher’s injuries."Why did you let her do this?" I murmured, fee
[Leah’s POV]I kept my gaze fixed on Asher as I continued to touch Ian. Despite the indifference that remained in his features, I could see the jealousy burning in his eyes. Good. This meant that even when the darkness had taken over, he still felt the bond between us. That meant there was a chance
[Leah’s POV]"Mallard has been around for a very long time." Craig began, growing serious. "I know that sounds impossible, but some claim he may even be immortal."Immortal…Shivering, I tried to picture being unable to die. After losing those closest to me, I found it hard to imagine carrying on. I
[Leah’s POV]"You’re Asher." I insisted. There was no way that I could mistake the sensations I was feeling from where we touched."Who?" The man asked in confusion."Leah," Ian murmured, giving my body a slight tug. "That isn’t Asher."Frowning, I continued to take in the man. The eyes that met min
[Leah’s POV]I held my breath as Craig led us into a dark hallway with a long stairwell leading down beneath the earth. Once we reached the bottom, the sound of laughter drifted towards us, filling the deafening silence that was becoming unbearable."In here." Craig announced, beginning to knock an
