Aurora's POV

It had been more than ten minutes since I returned to my room, yet, I still remained in the middle of my room.

My hands were resting lazily on my waist as I stared out of the window. This was the exact reason why I tried to avoid Palmer but I failed at it.

Grabbing my head with both hands, I lowered myself, sitting on my legs and still staring into space.

“Silva?" I muttered.

No way!

Silva is Asher’s best friend. There is no way he will try to dethrone his best friend whom he had been loyal to for years.

Clenching and unclenching my fists, I tried to piece together all that I had been fed with but the more I tried, the more confused I became.

I was slowly losing my mind. It was just a matter of seconds before I lost it completely.

Hurrying towards the safe in the corner of my bed, quickly typed in my password and immediately, the door flipped open.

Pulling out the file Palmer had given to me as a trophy, I ran my fingers around the edges for a while before emptying t

    Aurora's POVYet to register the shock of seeing him and Silva in the reception room, he had requested for a document. Standing there with my heart lodged in my chest, I kept staring into space, thinking of nothing in particular as my heart rammed against my chest. I was scared, Silva’s gaze was on me and it seemed like he could see through me. Folding my hands in front of me with my head bowed, I tried to leave but my legs were suddenly glued to the ground. My neck became stiff so I couldn’t raise it or twist it to the side. “I have other things to handle, why are you wasting my time?” Asher broke the silence in the room. Raising my head slowly, I managed to lock eyes with him though it was for a split second. His expression was blank and unreadable and he wasn’t even sparing me a glance.Maybe this wasn’t about Silva. Maybe this was about me?Unknowingly to me, I had been holding on to an important document that could either crash or save the Kingdom. Who knows if Palmer was

    Asher's POVIt had been a week since I saw Aurora or even spoke to her. Though it was necessary, it was tough trying to keep away from her just in case the curse snapped but I had to do it. I had promised not to kill her and this was the least I could do, staying away from her. During this time, I spent countless hours reviewing the documents Palmer kept bringing to my table. Seeing all these broke my heart as I wasn’t expecting Silva of all people to be plotting my downfall. We had come a long way for him to backstab me. I felt stupid because I defended him countless times only for the truth to prevail. After informing Elder Jared, my personal adviser, what I had been up to, he had suggested I made Silvia be the victim of the curse and I didn’t argue. He deserved to die and I will do that happily as long as my mate will be free from the shackles of the curse. Earlier when I left the reception room where everything had been staged, there was a victorious smirk on the side of my

    Aurora's POVIt happened so fast. Just as Asher was about to lunge at me and tear me into pieces, a strong hand pulled me from outside and the next sound I heard was the door slamming shut. Breathing heavy, I stared at the closed door; my heart lunged inside of my mouth. Behind the door was Asher, he was a seething beast. I wanted to run but I couldn’t move my feet as I kept staring at the door, my lips slightly apart. “What were you doing there? Trying to get yourself killed, huh?” Elder Jared yelled, he was the one who had pulled me out of his study. “I…” I tried to speak but a hard jam on the door made me scramble to my feet at once. “Don’t be anywhere around him until the curse breaks.” He said, nodding towards the opposite side of the hall. I didn’t ask any questions, I just did as I was told. At dusk, I made my way to the garden. At least, I was safer here than being in the palace where Silva and Asher were actively after my life. The night air was cold, but I couldn’t go

    Aurora’s POVLooking over my shoulders, I couldn’t breathe.I was expecting to see Silva, towering above me and Asher with a triumphant look on his face but he was there, lying lifeless on the ground just like Asher who had collapsed a while ago. What happened?A million and one questions were making rounds in my head but there was no one to answer them.One second, Asher was standing, pulling me away from Silva's corpse and then examining me with a sense of urgency but the next minute his legs gave out. He dropped to the ground with a thud that made my heart fall right into my stomach. “Asher?” I whispered, leaning close. I was waiting for him to snap his eyes open and tell me it was a joke to scare me. I wouldn’t be mad, I just wanted him to snap his eyes open and put an end to this.But still, he didn’t respond. His eyes were closed. There was no blood, no wounds I could see but he wasn’t moving. He just lay there, motionless. Unable to hold back anymore, I mustered the last st

    Asher’s POVA sharp pain to my head made my eyes snap open as I sat up with a sharp inhale like I was surfacing from a deep river.The room was too quiet as the morning sun filtered through the floral curtains. Looking around, I tried to piece together what had happened the previous night then I heard it. It was the sound of soft breathing by my side that I couldn’t ignore. Titling my head to the side, I saw Aurora, curled up in the chair next to the bed, her mouth was slightly open and she was snoring lightly. Her little arms were wrapped around herself like she was holding something dear to her heart. Her hair which was all over her face was a tangled mess and her dress was soaked with Silva’s blood, she didn’t bother cleaning up after the traumatic night she had undergone. My chest, which had been tightened for a few weeks, was now light. I could breathe freely just like everyone else. My relief and joy knew no bounds. The curse which I had been trying to deal with for years

    Aurora POV"You are nothing but a lowlife, what do you think of yourself?" My Step mother yelled at me, grabbing a fistful of my hair, as a loud yelp escaped my lips."I'm sorry Mom," I managed to stutter, but that earned me a sharp slap across my cheeks."Keep your apologies to yourself Aurora, I don't need it!" She barked, releasing my hair slowly, a sense of relief washed over my entire body, but it didn't last."The only thing I need from you, is make sure you don't reveal to anyone that you have received the Alpha wolf, or else, you know very well what I'm capable of" She threatened, looking at me with disgust in her eyes.My sister and I turned twenty today, and the moon goddess was so kind enough to bless us with our wolf, luckily for me, I received mine, not just a wolf, an Alpha wolf.I was elated and my joy knew no bounds, I couldn't wait to inform my father about it, as I wondered how he would react to this news of mine, even though he hated me, afterall i was nothing other

And how did he get to find out about this?Tears blurred my vision as my gaze landed on my stepsister, watching me with a smirk on her lips.She did this!But this was my opportunity, I will reveal the truth to Gavin now, he only rejected me because he thought I was an omega, but once he learns the truth, he will accept me and that is for sure."I...""Accept the rejection Aurora," Gavin growled, pushing my hand off his shirt so hard that I staggered backwards."Please, hear me out at least" I struggled to say."I want nothing to do with a useless person like you, accept the rejection now or else, I will snap your neck and feed your body to my dogs" Gavin threatened, fury swirling in his eyes."I...I Aurora Gemstone, accept your rejection" the words slipped out my mouth and instantly the mate bond between us, snapped into

    Aurora's POVIt’s been a week since the incident and I had done everything within my means to stay away from Asher and to my delight it worked.Though I haven't made any attempt to run off just yet, the agenda is in my head and when the time is right, I will leave. This time around, he wouldn't be able to catch me even by the whiskers.“Are you having your breakfast here?" Mira asked, poking her head through my door. Shaking my head sideways, I muttered, “I will eat at the dining table today." I replied, while she just nodded. To avoid Asher, I had steered clear from all places he would frequent and also, I had made sure he had no access to my room. Apart from Mira, no one else was free to get in. “Are you sure about it?" Mira asked. We were on our way to the dining room now. “Yeah! Or, were you trying to pull my legs when you said he had been skipping his meals too?" I asked, halting midway with my gaze on her. For one long week, I had remained in my room and now I wanted a ch

    Asher’s POVNothing went past my notice in the palace. I saw everything from my study. The guard had helped Aurora on the horse, he was going to help her escape. There was no way I was going to sit back and watch that happen and so without wasting time, I went after them, following the opposite direction and the quickest path that led to the border.The moment the guard lost focus for a moment and Aurora was contemplating crossing over, I lunged forward and with just a slash that ruptured his artery, he was at my feet. I was raving mad so I remained in the shadows trying to soothe myself before facing her. If I confronted her this way, she was going to end up like the guard. When I finally did, she passed out right before I could confront her. At first I wanted to leave her as a form of punishment for defying my orders twice but then again, I couldn't.Rouges was on rampage and my right sense of judgement wouldn't allow me to leave without taking her along. After a thorough che

    Aurora's POV “She is here with me. Don't pull that stunt ever again." Asher said, his voice low but chilling.“Who's there?" I asked, checking his face for an answer.“Silva." He replied and immediately, my face was drained of all its colors. I was right when I said fooling Asher was a piece of work. Acting all cool despite knowing what his Beta did was a whole different level of…I honestly don't know what to say but it was scary.Why am I always in an unpleasant spot?Knowing Asher could sense what was going on around him with ease made cold chills run through my spine, my heart slamming furiously against my chest. It wouldn't be a surprise if he could count my raged heartbeat. “The next time you try running away, I won't be able to keep my anger in check." He pulled away from me and with his back now turned on me, he said, “Who knows if the curse is going to snap and the death you have been trying to escape from will come for you?” I gulped, wiping my sweaty palm against my go
