All Chapters of The White Crescents: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Taking in a hot sip of my coffee, I took a quick glance at everyone sitting at the table. They were all so focused into their own worlds. This was never the way with my family. We talked and laughed, we actually looked forward to having breakfasts, lunches and dinners. Anything that brought us to the table! It was exciting to talk about the littlest of things. But here, it’s like pack business, pack training or the upcoming ‘Winter Ball,’ otherwise nothing. Well Winter Ball sounds exhilarating to be honest. I hear Ball and I imagine a huge hall with formally dressed men in tuxedos or suits and women in dresses and wine and delectable food and the fresh aroma of enthusiasm and slow dancing. It’s quite…picturesque.  Deciding to lighten up the boring atmosphere, I spoke up, taking everyone by surprise especially Asher, “Alpha Solomon, will your pack be joining us at the Winter Ball?”

Ashers POV: Where the hell was she? It’s eleven. I swear Axel, if this time I find her sauntering around the woods, alone, I will punish her. He grunted showing his disapproval of letting me do anything to hurt our mate. Selfish dog, as if I’m not affected when she’s hurt.  Deciding to have a quick bath I stripped and went inside the bathroom, turned on the shower and stood under the soothing hot water pouring over me.  Remembering how she scowled at me in the ground today when Maya refused to train her, I chuckled. I was right. I knew she was going to seek Maya's help out therefore I told her beforehand to not accept her offer. Mayas is a good girl and a part of me was delighted to see her f

Asher’s POV:“How many are dead?” I inquired.“The kid is the only survivor,” Cole glanced at the nine year old trembling boy, his lips quivering his eyes wide from all the traumatic mayhem he saw. His left arm had a sharp claw mark which held dried blood. That wasn’t from a vampire.Maya was attending to him. Holding his shaky hand in hers, she placed her other hand on his wound softly and closing her eyes she relaxed herself, taking a deep breath through her nostrils. The wound slowly started to heal as it faded from the corners. The boy watched her with amused eyes but he seemed too depleted to react.“Rogues were also involved,” Cole informed and my jaw tightened as I pursed my lips together.Suddenly anger washed over me, I scoffed. How awful is this world! Slaughtering people without any reason, killing children, spreading isolation, and fear but for what? To prove a fucking poi

“What do you want Jacob?” Asher demanded. “Ever since you placed your foot on my territory, things haven’t been working out according to me. Your presence has been proven to be a nuisance. A pain in my ass!” He took another step forward. “Stop blaming me for everything Asher. This old habit of yours,” Jacob scoffed and then shrugged, “it’s not my fault things aren't going in your favor. Could be for the better, I suppose’ His eyes landed on me and stayed there as a smile made its way on his lips. A dangerous snarl came from behind me which made Jacob look at him. Asher warned, “Don’t look at her like that. You’ve been eyeing my mate since the day you have arrived. Do you think I’m blind?” he took one more step forward and thank God I was in front of him. He only towered over me but didn’t cross me. My hands landed on his arms to keep him from going further but he didn’t look at me. My eyes flickered behind him to watch Sabine. She was leaning against the staircase with folded arms e

I froze at his words as he whispered, “The smell of your arousal his captivating,”Instead of feeling ashamed I was more turned on. I could feel his heated gaze on myself, his warm breath on my cheeks. Gripping the blanket tightly in my fists, I tried to remain calm and not give him any reaction but he wasn’t stopping. Truth be told, I didn’t want him to stop either.The moment his lips nibbled my earlobe I went still, my breath hitched and my skin burned. A small gasp escaped my throat and he pulled away. I turned my head to look at him. Why the fuck would he do that?My eyes were wide with embarrassment. Yea, now I was embarrassed.“Did you like that?” his voice was hoarse and thick.And just like that, I could not utter a single damn word. What the hell is he doing to me?He leaned closer just an inch away from touching my lips with his, “I’ll take that as a yes, hmm,”His nose touched my cheek and he inhaled deeply while I lay there, still as a rock, not knowing if I was enjoying
