Maya's pov It had already been exactly three days since my rough patch with Asher, since we gave each other space and barely even talked or looked long enough at each other. It hurt me too, but he had to give me space because I needed it. I wasn't a log of wood, I had feelings too and I was deeply hurt by what he did to me the morning after our first time having sex. It was really hurtful and it felt degrading to me; waking up to an empty cold bed alone without your lover after your first time together! Thinking about it made me even more angry, I didn't feel an ounce of guilt after asking him to give me space. He knew he messed up, I was also glad his conscience wouldn't let him be when he realized the gravity of what he did. I went through thick, and hell in the hands of Jason when I was still stuck at the blood moon pack before I escaped and everything he did to me and made me do was really traumatizing. I still have nightmares about them once in a while… especially since I star

Edna’s POV I was very happy when my brother, Asher, came knocking to ask for my help in making something nice for his mate, and currently, my friend Maya. The look on his face was enough to make me laugh, he looked worried, so worried that one would have thought that he had dropped a baby by accident, or something worse. “Um, Edna?” He had said when I opened the door for him. “Um, yeah?” I said, confused as to why he would be at my door so early in the morning. “I need your help with something very, very important.” He said, with worry in his eyes and I got worried instantly too. “What happened? What is it, Asher? Please tell me quickly, I can help you solve it. Did you run over someone? Or did you kill a—” I asked but he cut me in, shaking his head and widening his eyes even more, leaving me with the notion that whatever it is he had done had been even worse than killing someone. “I have destroyed the kitchen and I have had no success whatsoever in making the surprise breakfa

Maya's pov The all lovey-dovey period ended and now it was time for another business much to my dismay. One would think after that super lovely and romantic moment I had with Asher this morning, we'd be on a cruise ship, basking away in the Don Massimo Torricelli and Laura Biel kind of way but no, here we are in the royal pack, him gloving me up while I prep for my fight lessons….not like I'm complaining though. Well, I was pretty sure both Asher and Edna conspired to kill me because only they could come up with such an idea. Daniel, oh sweet Daniel. He would never be involved in such brutality. Yeah, I said I wanted to train but this was fifteen levels ahead of what was supposed to be a beginner class. After Edna told me everything that happened between Asher and Agatha, it dawned on me that there was no befriending. She was a low-key sworn enemy and I have no problem with that. My issue was with the fact that she always paired with me whenever we trained. And I feared because s

Asher's pov We got back from the amusement park and arrived at the house. "Thanks for taking me out Asher, it was really nice and I really loved it. '' Maya told me with a smile and held my hands, swinging them left and right. It was obvious she was bubbling with excitement and happiness from all the fun she had at the amusement park with me. I was going to give her more and shower her with more love if It was going to give me a chance to see her happy and excited all the time because a happy Maya was a happy Asher. It felt like my mood was linked to hers and whatever she felt was what I was bound to also feel too. I freed one of my hands from hers and gently stroked her face while she leaned in "you shouldn't be thanking me Maya, you deserve it and you're entitled to anything you want here" I told her and she nodded before she gave me a hug "still, I'll show you I loved it" she replied and gave me a peck then released me from her hug "I still have a surprise for you" I told her and

Alpha Asher’s POV. I walked over to the Beta’s office to speak to Daniel. Edna was just like a sister to me and matters that included her life were important to mine too. Her parents died right before my eyes and entrusted me to care for her until I died. I owed her some happiness at least, and I know how much one’s mate can bring a lot of happiness to them. I mean, look at my perfect mate, Maya. If Edna wanted to have her mate with her, she deserved to, but still, I needed Killian to take part in some of the work that needed to be done. As my spy, he had to stay at the Blood moon’s pack and give me information regarding the Blood moon pack and its members and if he came back, there was a possibility that the evil pack alpha would somehow be able to do something evil, especially to my pack and I would not be able to stop it. But first of all, I felt like I needed to talk it all out with my beta and best friend first. And so that was why I was headed to his office to have a conversa
