Asher appeared in the woods and quickly shifted into his wolf. He met up with some warriors of Blue Moon pack and together, they gave a hoot pursuit to a pack of wolves. The wolves were fast and although they could outrun Asher’s warriors, they couldn’t outrun him and so with time, his people were way behind him and he was not ready to let go of the wolves’ trails. He couldn’t believe that he had just moved in and they had shown appearance again. With how close he was at catching them, he knew his decision of moving temporarily to the human realm was the best, even though the unknown wolves weren’t the only reason he had suggested it.He leaped on a tree, tapping into his nightwalkers powers to keep him balance on the trees as he leaped from one to the other. After a few jumped, he finally landed with a loud roar and the wolves in front of him screeched to a stop. They watched him, wanting to know what he would do next and the best way to evade him.‘Who are you,’ Asher asked in the m
Edward appeared in the palace with Asher in his arms, making the women in the drawing room to scream on seeing the sight. Aliyah was on her feet immediately as she rushed her husband, “What happened to him?” she asked, her voice composed despite the fact that she was breaking down inside and she signaled for the servants to get a blanket.“I met him like this in the human woods, quickly, summon Hephzibah, Irene is too far to hear us,” he commanded as he quickly the nearly unconscious Asher on the chaise longue. Aliyah did as told as called for Hephzibah, using the witch council calling code. Scarlet, Monica and Vanessa, Steven’s mate, circled Asher, each wanting to know what they could do to help. Aliyah was fighting back tears as she stared at her son, just yesterday, he had told her to trust him and have fate in him and just twenty-four hours later, he had to be rescued by his father. What could possibly have happened?They were still waiting for Hephzibah when the warriors in the w
“The damned creatures were here,” Larry said, scrunching up his nose as he spat on the forest floor. “What I don’t understand was how they evaded all the traps.”“Larry, we are running out of time. If we don’t get at least one of those damned beasts by the end of the month, Mr. Volkov would be off with our heads and I seriously don’t want to die yet. I have kids you know,” a man said, standing in front of Larry. Larry glanced at the rest and saw that they were in support of what the man said and he frowned, “do you think I don’t want to catch them too? Or do you think I want to die and I don’t want to raise my daughter? Listen, we all spent his money and we all will bear the consequences if we don’t deliver to him. Besides, we wouldn’t have been in this problem if you lot hadn’t bragged how good we are in catching the damned beasts.”“But we are good, Larry, I just don’t understand what had been happening for a while now. It’s like they have become smarter and now knows where we hide
‘One day he will answer to his destiny, and that is to be my son!’ the fearful voice said and Asher jerked awake with a gasp. He panted softly, sitting on the bed and glancing around. The room was filled with the sunlight and from his understanding, it should be in the early afternoon. He frowned, he has never had his nightmare in daytime before, what could have happened. He climbed out of the bed, surprised to find himself totally naked and he was hit with a strong headache. He rubbed his temple, wincing in pain as he made his way to the bathroom.His memory was a blur as he still couldn’t remember how he had ended up in his bed naked. Wait, did he have a woman last night? He wondered but his room doesn’t smell of any she-wolf or lady vampire. He is not so good with demon females and yes he has bed a few, but he has never had anyone in his father’s palace. And even though, there was no demon scent in his room, so, it means he still holds on to his rule.He was in the shower when he h
Asher stared at Naomi, too shocked to say a word. She held his gaze and he could see her confusion in her eyes. He felt Anita trying to get to him in the mind link and he blinked and shook his head slightly, his gaze still on Naomi. “You don’t want to talk about the party?” he asked.Naomi shrugged. “I didn’t really stay till the end, I left half way so…”The more she spoke, the shocker Asher became. He has been practicing for a long time in order to perform group compelling. This was his first time trying it out and if everyone was talking about the party, it means that he succeeded and yet, here she was, still remembering what she did. It wasn’t supposed to be so, she was supposed to believe that she stayed till the end and she was also not to recall that they have been absent in school but not only did she ask where they were, she also remembered what she did that day. “Naomi,” Asher called, and her eyes snapped back to him from Anita. “You enjoyed the party that day, and you shoul
During the last class of the day. Naomi sat behind Trisha and kept staring at her back, the thought that this was the last time she would be seeing was eating her up. She was torn between telling her and just letting nature takes its course. She closed her eyes and heaved a sigh, her heart beating loud in her chest as she zoned out every noise around her, including the teacher’s voice. She glanced outside, at the evening sky and licked her lips. Forcing herself to come back to present, she glanced at the teacher but the board was a blur and so she glanced around the classroom only for her heart to miss a beat when she saw the midnight blue eyes staring at her. She doesn’t know why but at the very moment, she felt calm, the worry that has been plaguing her all afternoon vanished and it was like everything would be okay.She held Asher’s gaze, wondering why his gaze brought her peace within herself and also wondering why it feel like she had seen him somewhere, somewhere that wasn’t in
The red sports car blocked Naomi’s part a few meters from school and she frowned. She already knows who it belonged to. Just then, the black tinted glass of the driver’s side lowered and she saw the handsome boy behind the steering wheel. “Get in,” he said without looking at her.“No thank you, I can manage,” she replied, moving away from the car.“Get in the car, Naomi, or I will make you,” this time, Asher glanced at her and she gasped and that was because rather than midnight blue, his eyes were transparent brown.Frowning, she sighed and walked around the car to get into the passenger’s seat. She doesn’t know why but she believed one hundred percent that he could make her get into the car and she would prefer to get in on her own than being carried. Now inside the cozy car, his masculine scent filled her senses and now being in an enclosed space with just him and his scent, she was able to pinpoint how he smelled like. His smell was a little rusty and also tantalizing like tangeri
“Naomi,” Asher called and sighed in relief when she finally looked at him, “are you okay?”“Asher,” she whispered, “who…” she wanted to ask but her question was interrupted when Asher quickly pulled her into arms and she crashed on his chest. She looked up at him in shook but he was looking somewhere and then she heard it from deep within his throat, a growl. She was shocked as she kept staring at his chin —he was that taller than her— and she saw his Adam apple bobble as he growled again, it was like his chest was vibrating and then that fear striking sound was coming out. If she wasn’t held close to him, she would have never believed that he was the one making the sound but the vibration from his chest was all the proof that she needs.She tried to move away but he held her tightly with such a strong grip that she feared he might break her if he exerts more force. She was still wondering what was going on when she saw it, just like in her vision, the shadow figure. It stood on the l
