Aphrodite

I rushed up the stairs in excitement, eager to break the good news to Asher. I imagined how ecstatic he would be to hear he was soon going to be a father, and that thought alone propelled me forward.

I swung our bedroom door open, fully expecting him to be there, but I was met with a cold, empty room. My excitement instantly dampened, and I shut the door slowly behind me, staring at the untouched bed in the centre of the room.

I walked towards the nightstand and checked the time. It read 10:47 PM, which meant he would be back soon. With an excited grin on my face, I climbed into the bed, leaning my back against the headboard as I stared at the door, patiently waiting for his return.

Minutes turned into an hour, and the excitement slowly turned into a deep yearning. The room felt unbearably empty without him. I needed him beside me to share in this incredible moment and to feel his arms around me, reassuring me that everything was real and wonderful.

    AsherI met George halfway to the edge of the pack territory, where, as expected, more than a dozen warriors were patrolling the perimeter."My King," George bowed as he approached, and I gave a curt nod in acknowledgement."What am I looking at?" I asked, scanning the clearing but seeing nothing out of the ordinary."This way," he directed, leading me towards the boundary between my territory and the unclaimed lands. As we neared a large oak tree in the middle of the clearing, the stench of rotting flesh hit me full force, nearly choking me on my breath.I scrunched my nose but remained silent as we approached the tree. There, pinned to the bark with an arrow, was the head of a wolf. The nauseating stench confirmed it had been dead for some time, but what truly caught my attention was that this was no ordinary wolf. It was a Devil Wolf, and this only solidified my suspicions about the experiments being conducted on them.I stepped forward and removed a small note that was attached to

    AsherI pulled into my mother-in-law's driveway and parked before killing the engine. I took a deep, nervous breath as I stared at the empty front porch. My fingers unconsciously tapped on the steering wheel as I tried to muster the courage I needed.After giving myself a brief pep talk, I reached over to the passenger seat and grabbed the enormous bouquet of red roses I had George prepare, along with a basket of chocolates.Shutting the car door behind me, I made my way up the steps to the front door. I still hadn’t figured out a perfect explanation that would make her forgive me. Maybe the truth would be enough, wouldn’t it?I raised my fist to knock, but the door suddenly swung open, revealing Mrs. Johnson. Her eyes widened in surprise at finding me on her doorstep, but they quickly narrowed when she noticed the flowers and chocolates in my hands."Hello, Mrs. Johnson." I started with a tight smile on my lips, but she rolled her eyes and promptly shut the door in my face. I blinked

    Aphrodite Mom returned home hours later, grinning from ear to ear when she saw how Asher was glued to my side, fussing over the smallest things. I thought his constant fussing might irritate me, but instead, I found myself secretly loving it. Call me crazy, but getting attention from my mate felt like a drug I couldn't get enough of.When we broke the news of my pregnancy to Mom, she was both shocked and overjoyed. She was absolutely thrilled to be a grandmother, and it warmed my heart. She wouldn’t stop bragging about how the herbs she had given me worked wonders, even though, in truth, they had nothing to do with my miracle baby. Everything felt perfect, and I wished it could stay that way.We spent the night at Mom’s place and drove back to the pack the next morning. We decided to keep my pregnancy a secret, informing only a select few.Asher refused to tell Ronan the news, but I felt he deserved to know, even if he was a douchebag.

    AsherI walked back into the meeting room, only to find Aphrodite so deep in thought that she didn’t even notice my presence.“Hey, love,” I called gently, but she seemed too lost in her own world to hear me. I stepped closer and placed a soft hand on her shoulder. She jolted at the contact, her eyes snapping up to meet mine.“You scared me,” she breathed out, clutching her chest as she exhaled slowly. Concerned, I pulled back the chair beside her and sat down, facing her directly.“What has you so distracted that you didn’t hear me come in?” I asked softly, searching her face for any sign of what might be troubling her. She shook her head and forced a smile, but it didn’t quite reach her eyes.“It’s nothing,” she replied, but I wasn’t convinced. Something in her tone, in the way she avoided my gaze, told me it was far from nothing.“Are you sure?” I pressed, my voice gentle but firm. She nodded, her smile still forced.“It’s nothing, I promise,” she repeated, reaching for her purse b

    Aphrodite "Turn right to get to your destination." The GPS announced my arrival.I frowned at the sound of my car's GPS navigation pulling up to a stop in front of a narrow dirt road that led deeper into the dense trees.The road was almost invisible, a barely-there path cutting through the woods, and it was getting dark fast. I didn’t have much time before Asher would start calling, so I had to do this now. Pushing aside my unease, I turned onto the dirt road and drove up the hill at a cautious pace.I tried to convince myself that Elijah was just a puny human—there was nothing to be afraid of, but the quick palpitations of my heart told a different story.“You have arrived at your destination,” the GPS declared. I pulled into a small clearing where a quaint little cabin sat in the centre, surrounded by trees. The isolation was unsettling. I turned off the car, silenced the GPS, and stepped out, shutting the door behind me with a quiet click.“Hello?” I called out, spinning slowly t

    Aphrodite It had been a few days since I found Brielle's severed finger in my jewellery box, and the news of her kidnapping had spread like wildfire throughout the werewolf world.No matter how hard I tried to reach Elijah over the past few days, I failed. I was scared and confused, praying that Brielle was still alive.Brielle was like the super star of the werewolf world, so when I started receiving death threats at the office, I wasn’t too shocked. It got to the point where Lara and I could no longer show up at work because there was always an angry mob waiting for us. Somehow, they had found out that I had matched her with the psychopath responsible for her kidnapping—Elijah.The revelation caused a massive uproar in the werewolf community, leading to a campaign calling for the cancellation of my matchmaking app. I was devastated by the news, breaking down in tears as I was transported back to the day we received that lawsuit.The last straw was when I received a call from Briell

    Aphrodite “Why the fuck isn't she waking up? Do something!” A familiar deep voice growled, his tone suggesting irritation.“I—I’ve done everything I can, Your Highness,” a shaky voice responded quickly, clearly unnerved by Asher’s fury. “It’s up to her now. She’s fighting, but it may take some time. Her body is making a remarkable recovery,” he added nervously under Asher’s intense aura.“That’s not good enough. I need her to wake up now,” he snapped, his voice filled with desperation as the tension radiated off him in waves. “I understand, Your Highness,” the doctor replied cautiously, “but these things can’t be rushed. Her vitals are stabilising, which is a positive sign. We just need to give her time.”“Time? She doesn’t have time! If anything happens to her or our baby…” His voice cracked, the anger giving way to fear. I sighed softly, fighting to pry my eyes open. The effort felt monumental, but eventually I managed to crack them open, only to wince when the bright white light

    Aphrodite: I sat at my desk, my fingers flying across the keyboard, as I worked on the latest updates for our matchmaking app, aiming to make everything much more sophisticated. It had taken me almost a year to design the app and another month to upgrade it, but finally, I was almost done. Seeing the results, I knew it was all worth it.Pausing for a moment, I glanced outside my window, inhaling and exhaling the cold breeze, which was the only thing that was free in my world. It was almost dark already, and working all day had made me lose touch with time, but I wouldn't have wanted my life any other way. It was boring, but it came with a high level of satisfaction.Returning my gaze to the computer screen that illuminated my face, I was suddenly interrupted when the door burst open. My head snapped up to see my best friend and coworker, Lara, walking in confidently, wearing a grin so wide it seemed to stretch from ear to ear."Aphrodite!" Lara practically shouted as she sprinted tow

    Aphrodite I sighed the moment Asher walked out the door, leaving me alone. I emerged from the closet just as Lara entered the bedroom, softly closing the door behind her. She beamed when our eyes met, but I could only muster a faint smile in return.I slumped down on the edge of the bed with a deep groan. The bed dipped as Lara joined me, her smile fading when she saw the forlorn look in my eyes.She rubbed my shoulder soothingly without saying a word, silently encouraging me to open up to her.“He just left, Lara, and I understand he had to go, but why does it still hurt so much?” I murmured, tears blurring my vision. The pain of his absence cut deeper than I wanted to admit because he should be with me instead of going to work, but maybe I was being too dramatic crying about it.“Oh, honey,” Lara cooed, her voice soft and full of empathy. “You have every right to feel this way. He's your mate, and he should be here with you right now.”I sighed, wiping away the tear that had slippe
