Asher quietly watched Ethan drag a hand through his hair, exhaling as though he'd been holding his breath for hours.

“I didn’t mean to hide it from you, Ash." He said in a voice rougher than usual. "The whole son of a viscount thing and the Maxwell group stuff. That’s… that’s a part of me I’ve wanted to cut away for a long time. I hate it.”

Asher shot him a look from the corner of his eyes. “What do you mean you hate it?”

Ethan let out a hollow chuckle, his eyes flicking to the windshield. “Because no matter what I did, it was never good enough. My cousin was the perfect Maxwell. I guess I shouldn't complain because even Ryder, my older brother went through the same thing and left the family as soon as he found an out. I stayed, hoping one day I'll be seen for who I am. I did everything just like the family wanted me to but, somehow my cousin shined brighter. Then I realized I was fighting a war I was never going to win. So when Ryder offered me a spot on his race team," His throat b

  • Taming His Alpha Brother   Chapter 113

    Asher could feel Zane as though he shared the same skin. He didn't have to look back to know that Zane was a good five steps away from him, but every step he took forward felt like he was right behind him, his tall muscular frame pressed tightly against Asher. It was goddamn infuriating. His pulse was thrumming frantically as they walked through the house.He hated how aware he was of each footstep, how his body vibrated as though Zane's breath was ghosting down his neck. To make sure he wasn't mistaken, he glanced over his shoulder and gritted his teeth when he confirmed Zane wasn't even standing anywhere close to him.Why then could he feel him so acutely?Hurrying his footstep, he soon made it out of the house, roughly pushing open the back door. The night air that breezed gently over his face didn't do anything to calm his roaring blood.The soft golden lights strung along the backyard made everything seem peaceful, and Asher felt anything but as tension stiffened his spine.Etha

  • Taming His Alpha Brother   Chapter 112

    Asher knew he had no business smiling. He should be at alert and scrutinizing Ethan to see what he was up to. But there he was, leaning back in a lawn char with a bottle of water in hand, watching Ethan and Charles hover over the grill.Smoke curled up into the air, the scent of steak and char making his stomach rumble. Why did it smell so damn delicious?Asher was tempted to go steal one but the two men were literally standing by like guards.As he watched them talk, Asher's smile grew softer. He couldn't remember the last time he'd felt this way....just so damn comfortable in his own skin.Maybe because he didn't have to pretend anymore.If it had been a while ago, Asher would have dragged himself to the grill too, trying to act like he knew what the hell he was doing and pretending to care about fucking seasoning and all the stupid macho shit. Okay, if he was being honest, Asher wouldn't even be caught dead near a homely atmosphere like this. There were tons of maids who picked up

    Asher pulled off the track, the low purr of his engine cutting out as he parked beside the lineup of gleaming race cars. He took off his helmet and the black head-sock, shaking out his slightly damp hair.Across the lot, another car drifted into a perfect sideways stop before it screeched to a halt beside him. Ethan stepped out, his helmet tucked under one arm while his familiar cocky grin formed on his face.He looked Asher up and down, eyes flicking with that pix of pride, heat and mock irritation only he could pull off."Fucking hell, Asher," Ethan said, running a hand through his hair. "it's like turning into an Omega made you even faster or something. I swear you weren't this good even when you were an Alpha."Asher barked out a laugh and tossed his helmet onto the car's hood. "Or maybe, racing skills have nothing to do with being an Alpha or an Omega." he rolled his eyes, kicking Ethan in the shin. "If you practiced as half as much, you wouldn't always get your ass beat by me."

    It turned out Ethan had been right about too. Asher didn't just tolerate reading now--it actually calmed him. Maybe because it didn't demand or expect anything from him."Morning, Ash!" the barista chriped suddenly, cutting off his train of thought. Asher looked up at the older brunette lady, giving her a polite nod."Morning, Sandy," he said, moving to her. "I'll have the--""Iced coffee," she cut him off with a warm grin, guessing his usual order right. "You can sit while we make it. I'll bring it for you myself."Sandy was...a lot. She seemed to really like Asher since the first time they met and tried to force herself into the role of his big sister. He'd heard her refer to him as that adorable omega once. Asher hadn't known how to feel about it at the time...okay, maybe he crashed out a little. His curly blonde hair and green eyes had always been a source of insecurity for Asher, especially when he was an Alpha.As a growing boy and a teen, everyone had always said he looked like

  • Taming His Alpha Brother   Chapter One Hundred And Nine

    Asher was sweating, but a light smile was on his face as he pushed a glass door open, the little bell above it chiming. His pulse was still pounding, but not painfully so...it was a good kind of burn that made him feel alive after a long morning run.Honestly, running outdoors had become his therapy and somehow...anchor. He didn't expect to love it this much.It cleared his head and forced him to think. Like yesterday morning, it was during his run that he decided he wasn't interested in going to the damned Lycan Castle for whatever answers Ethan promised. Asher was no longer a West, and he was pretty much a useless pawn if Ethan was just using him to get through to Zane. As soon as Zane outed him to their family and he lost everything, if Ethan didn't like him, he wouldn't have spent the past few months taking Asher out of his self-pity hole.So after the run, he'd gotten home, flushed and a little dizzy from the run, and told Ethan that he was going to trust that their friendship m

  • Taming His Alpha Brother   Chapter One Hundred And Eight

    “Here’s everything you asked for, sir.” Zane didn’t look up as he took the folder extended towards him. He drummed his fingers once against the cover before he set it down on his desk with a quiet thud. When his eyes finally lifted, the coldness in them made the man across from him shift on his feet. He cleared his throat. “Uh… Is everything okay, sir? You only ever ask for updates about the target on the last day of the month.” his voice faltered a little when Zane's gaze seemed to grow even colder. "And you explicitly instructed me not to tell you anything other than if he met with anyone from the press and nothing else about him." Zane’s brow arched, and the look on his face took a condescending turn. “Its so foolish you remember all the instructions I gave you but forget the most important one." He said bitingly. "What have I told you about asking me questions?" That shut the man up fast and he bowed his head. Zane leaned back in his chair, and that usual mask of calm s
