Asher's POV “Why are you impatient?" Silva snarled at me, plopping on the chair, tossing a file in my direction which I caught before it slipped off the table. Drumming his fingers against the table, he mouthed, “I haven’t witnessed someone like Aurora in a while now." “Even in the face of death, she doesn't mind holding on to her identity like it was going to be stolen from her." He huffed, rolling his eyes. "It made me admire her even more.” I chuckled but Silva didn't react, instead he leaned back on the chair and then began to swirl around, leaving me to go through the content of the file.Before now, I already knew getting Aurora to speak was not going to be futile. She has shown me several times that little things weren't enough to shake her. Or should I say it was resilience?Smacking my lips, I plopped on the chair and one after the other, I began to flip through the documents one after the other. “Alpha Simone's daughter?" I asked, eliciting a nod from Silva who snappe

Twenty Two

Reader’s POVSeated at the head of the table was Palmer and on both sides of the long table were high ranking officials in the pack. The dimly lit bar was filled with murmurs and soft music seeping from the large speakers in the four corners of the room.But a heavy silence loomed on the table Palmer and the others sat. They all looked uneasy and the frustration all over their faces was evident. “What are we going to do? The elders already acknowledged her and our chances of denting her image are getting slimmer by the day." Monty said, breaking the silence in their midst. “We have to come up with a contingent plan to take her down once and for all." Jason huffed, crossing his hands on his chest, he added, “I had managed to remain under her reins without causing trouble but not anymore."Everyone seated at the table all had one goal and that is to take Aurora down. Since her arrival, they have been unable to go about their daily business unlike when the former leader was still in

Twenty Three

Aurora's POV Last night, I could barely get a wink of sleep as Asher’s words kept hunting me non stop.To save myself from another sleepless night, I decided to come out clean during breakfast that morning and so with this in mind, I got ready to face him. Stepping out of my room, there was an undeniable strange atmosphere. The usual sounds of movement of guards and maids on duty, side talks were absent. Titling my head, I tried to get a grasp of the situation but I was quick to shove it aside. By the time I got to the dining room, my curiosity about the unusual happenings became even more pronounced as I was frantically searching for someone to tell me what the issue was. And as if that was not enough, Asher and Silva were not at the table.No matter how many times I tried to beat them at the dining table, they always arrived before me but today it was different.Darting my eyes around, I was waiting for them to pop out of the numerous doors but they didn't step out. “My lady,

Twenty Four.

Aurora's POV While Miller went on and on, trying to convince me on why I should run away before the palace guards came for me, I was pacing about with my heart inside my mouth.Palmer.What is he up to this time around? It wasn't up to twenty four hours when he handed over the file to me that contained the progress of the faction, only for him to set me up in the most unimaginable way. What was I thinking? I should have left or more still don't do anything as Elder Garrick had insisted but I had refused to be cornered. Now, see where my stubbornness had landed me in.Pressing my lips into a thin line, I tried not to dwell on Palmer’s betrayal but on how to pull myself out of this mess. Crossing my hands on my chest, I began to pace about, racking my head at the same time to come up with the perfect plan but it was to no avail. The evidence presented was solid, mere words wouldn't be enough to prove my innocence. I have to do something. “Aurora, you have to leave now." Miller s

Twenty Five.

Aurora’s POVHonestly, it was unbelievable that Asher found my current condition amusing. I wanted to yell at him and express how I felt but I couldn't do that. I was handicapped and the best I could do at this point was to maintain calm. Slowly, I raised my head only to bury it almost immediately.At the moment, he was not just smiling, he had metamorphosed into giggling which made me even more livid but there was nothing I could do.I had been accused of treason and the least I could do was to walk on the tip of my toes with my head bent so I wouldn't annoy him. Recalling his earlier words about me failing either ways, my heart constricted against my chest as my mind raced with different thoughts.Asher was bold with his declaration of presenting my heart to the council. As if that was not enough, he went ahead to affirm his words with a pledge. If care wasn't taken, Asher wouldn't mind killing me even before the end of two weeks. The amusement in his eyes and silent calculatio

Twenty Six.

Asher’s POVEverything that had happened, a few minutes was all I needed to make everything return to normalcy but I didn't raise a finger.It wouldn't be completely wrong to say it was a perfect trap.One to corner Aurora, make her vulnerable and desperate. In that way, she wouldn't hesitate to reveal her identity she had sworn to hold onto. Who knows if she still wouldn't speak. Aurora was stubborn and strong headed, wanting to do everything on her own without getting assistance from anyone. Well, if she still decides to hold on to her identity, no issue but this ploy was worth the trial.Whoever it was that had set Aurora up had done the most perfect job I had seen in a while.The evidence was so neat and perfectly orchestrated that even a careful analysis might not bring the accurate result. Palmer posing to be the orchestrator was laughable. He was a force to reckon with but I doubt if he would be able to pull something of this sort.Someone was definitely behind him A stron

Twenty Seven.

Aurora's POVThe moment Asher left the council hall, I slid through the wall to the floor, my heart slamming against my chest non stop. Pulling my legs to my chin, I was staring hard at the mahogany table, my heart clenching against my chest as a million and one questions spiraled through my head. “Two weeks, he gave his words." I mumbled, biting my lower lips as I darted my eyes all over the place. Two weeks looked like a long time but it wasn't. Not when I have no idea how I was going to vindicate myself from the allegations. “My lady, you should…” A guard approached me but I didn't wait for him to finish speaking before I pulled myself from the floor and with heavy footsteps, I made my way out of the hall.Getting to my room, I saw Miller standing by the door, her face masked with worry as she paced about.She was yet to see me else she would have scooted to my side long ago.Pushing my hand into my hair, I let out a low sigh and with calculated footsteps, I made my way toward

Twenty Eight

Aurora’s POV The silence in the room was deafening. Apart from the sound of the ticking clock on the wall, there was no other sound. I could barely breathe and with each passing second, I felt life seeping out of me. Palmer sat across me with his legs crossed and an unreadable expression. He didn't make any move to speak or move his body; he just sat there like a statue. What does he want from me?When he came in earlier ordering Elder Garrick to leave, I was frightened. I wanted to leave too but I held myself from doing so. Biting the corner of my lips, I grasped the edge of the table, my gaze fixated on him just in case he tried anything stupid. Just yesterday, he was victorious that he had placed me in a tight spot and now he was here in my office, acting like nothing happened. Pushing his hand into his hair, he cast me a quick glance causing a shiver to run through my spine but I forced myself to sit straighter.I wouldn't show cowardice, not in my territory and not before

Twenty Nine

Reader’s POV Palmer kicked his chair backwards only to start pacing about in circles while Aurora on the other hand maintained her initial posture.She didn't trust him even though he was offering her a helping hand. "Who do you think you are up against?” Palmer suddenly snarled, slamming his fist against the table in anger.Nodding at his reddened fist, Aurora said, "You're going to end up hurting yourself if you don't stop.” "This isn't some kind of game you can wriggle yourself from. Take my hand now while I'm still offering to help you rather than…” “You’re up to no good." She huffed, drumming her fingers against the table.Plopping on his seat, Palmer buried his head in his hands and the next time he raised it, his features had softened but Aurora still had her doubts. “Why don't you tell me why you are doing this?" With a shrug, she added, “If you do, I might consider your request and form an alliance with you." She mouthed, watching Palmer’s gaze darkened but it quickly re

Thirty

Asher's POVIt was already ten minutes into dinner, yet, Aurora wasn’t at the table and her maid also was nowhere to be found.Picking my food, I kept staring at the door, hoping she would walk in the next second but she didn’t, making me apprehensive. When I couldn't bear it anymore, I pushed my chair backwards but before I could rise, she walked in with a long face.“I will serve myself." She said to the chef who stepped aside so she could have her way.“Why? Aren't you hungry?" I asked, nodding at her almost empty plate.“I had a late lunch." She replied with disinterest, sending back the rest of my words but not my gaze.I sat across from her so I had a full view of her face, and I didn't allow my eyes to wander from her as she played with her meal.There was no point asking since I already knew the reason why she was downcast. It was already three days, making it eleven days more for her to clear her name. I wished I could help ease her worries but she wouldn't let me. The few
