Asher was dumbfounded at his grandfather's accusations. The moment he heard about Robert's health, he rushed to the hospital as fast as his legs could carry him. He sat beside his bed for hours, even slept at the damned hospital, and yet, Robert had no idea of this.

He wanted to argue about it, but honestly, Asher was damned tired of explaining himself, and something much more daunting was at hand. He needed fucking answers.

"Why did you give Zane my position?" Asher snapped in a voice taut with ill-concealed fury. "LexiPharm is mine. You had no right to hand it over like...like some fucking participation trophy! You made me CEO, dammit."

However, Robert's icy blue eyes only narrowed into slits as he spat. "And I regret it every damn day!"

The air punched out of Asher's lungs, leaving him reeling. But the old man didn't stop there.

"You ran Lexipharm to the ground, you useless retard. Do you think I don't have the quarterly reports already?" The old man shook his grey head of hair, an

  • Taming His Alpha Brother   Chapter Ninety-One

    Somewhere between his thoughts as he waited for Asher, Zane must have dozed off because he jerked awake at a rap against the car window.It took a second for his heart to regulate, and when he glanced out, Asher stood there with a grin, giving him a little wave. Letting out an exhale, Zane popped the lock and let him in.Once Asher settled behind the wheel, Zane drawled. "We've got pretty much two hours till dark. Please tell me that was the end of this...circus."Asher smirked and turned the key in the ignition. "What is it going to take to make you admit you're having fun?""Nothing," Zane shrugged, "because I'm not. This had been a silly waste of my time. And if not for the pity I have for you concerning what you learned last night, I would have put an end to it the minute you appeared at the office."Asher's hands left the steering wheel as he nodded slowly. "Could have fooled me...except these..." He suddenly waved something in the space between them. "They tell another story."Z

    ~~"So, what game do you play here?"Asher spun around with all the confidence of a man who definitely had no clue what he was looking at, then jabbed a finger toward a cabinet on the far side. "That one."Zane's lips curled the second he saw what Asher was pointing at. Seriously. Revolution X? That was the bane of his childhood experience. Yes, Zane was part of the minority who despised it. Ironically, it was Jennifer's favorite. She had loved that stupid game, dragging little Zane along every time, even as he wanted to play something else."So," he drawled, unable to hide the judgment from his voice. "Why am I not surprised you chose that?""What?" Asher faked a horrified look. "It's a classic!""Sure," Rolling his eyes, Zane shoved his hands into his pockets. "Knock yourself out."Still pretending to be uninterested, Zane followed Asher to the machine, watching the man swagger his way into the box. And then--oh, it was painful. Asher played as if he'd never held a trigger in his ent

    MUSIC REC (First day of my life by Bright Eyes. I loved it, but idk, it's a CHOICE!!)~~Asher fell back a step, and Zane watched his green eyes widen in apprehension. Instantly, every hackle in Zane's body rose, and he bared his teeth in warning. His chest thrummed with suspicion.How could Asher just stumble into this place?This wasn't just some random restaurant. This was his place. His and Jennifer's. The one corner of the city he hadn't touched since the day she passed, because coming back here felt like sawing open an old wound and drinking blood straight from it.If he hadn't been distracted by Asher's reckless driving, he would have remembered the road here and stopped it before they even got close. The thought that Asher had somehow uncovered and invaded it...it made Zane's chest ache. There was no way it was a coincidence. Asher knew somet---"Oh my fucking god, Zane!" Asher cut in and closed the distance between them again. His palms gripped Zane's biceps as if trying to r

    The second the word 'fine' left his lips, Asher's megawatt smile returned, bright enough to light up the entire sky. That damned smile would be forever tattooed in Zane's brain. Asher had never smiled at him.He tore his gaze away, grinding his molars like the effort alone might save his sanity. Before he could rethink his life choices, Asher practically skipped to the intercom and picked it up. Zane let out a low sound of disapproval. "Now, what are you...""Just trust me," Asher cut in, raising a finger.Trust him. RIght. He watched Asher pun in a number, humming under his breath until his assistant's voice filtered through the receiver.He gave her an instruction to come up, and a few minutes later, the door opened and the petite woman stepped inside, eyes a little guarded as she bounced them between Zane and Asher."These bags on the table," Asher said smoothly, waving at them. "You can take them. I bought him lunch, but we've got someplace else to be. No point letting it go to wa

    ~~Asher's lips curved into a cheeky little grin at Zane's words. And the Alpha exhaled hard through his teeth. Fucking omega."Let's get this over with then," he muttered. "Hi, I'm--""No, let me go again."Zane's face twisted like huh. Asher's grin only deepened and his eyes twinkled with excitement. Who was this and what had he done to the Asher, Zane knew? He cleared his throat anyway. "Hi, I'm Asher. I always thought I was a West, but turns out I'm not. I suck at school stuff, but racing is my shit. Also, I messed up and now I'm an Omega, whose heat is dependent on....well, you."Zane nearly rolled his eyes into the back of his skull. "Hi, i'm---" he cut himself off with an incredulous scoff. Ridiculous didn't begin to cover this, but fine, he'd play. "I'm Zane. An illegitimate son of the West family. I am very good at 'school stuff' and I graduated top of my class, part of the most funded research of our time...""Show off," Asher interrupted with a smile.Zane ignored him. "I a

    Zane didn’t glance up when his office door clicked open. His eyes were fixed on the spreadsheet on his PC, and assuming it was Linda, he started to speak.“It's a good thing you're here. I was about to call you up anyway." he paused, and opened a file on his desk, picking up a pen without looking. "Move the trial data for 14B to my desk. Tell the lab I want a comparative analysis done between it and 12C. And tell R&D I don’t give a damn if it costs triple, I want heat suppression without the liver damage risk. If they can’t crack it, I’ll find someone who can.” His pen scratched against the contract he was red-lining. “And make sure the patent draft for the new gene therapy gets to Legal before lunch. I don’t want another delay.”Only silence echoed across the room.Zane's brows knotted into a deep frown. His assistant usually chirped some acknowledgment by now. He lifted his head, irritation bristling inside him at the disrespect, only to feel it knocked clean out of him.Because it
