Ashina couldn't believe her luck, she was so happy. But she knew she would love spending time with Gael more. As long as she wasn't sent out of this Pack, working as a nanny and housekeeper was better than being caught by Zeeb. She smiled at Gael as he bounced to her side. He flashed a wide smile at her as she threaded her hand through his hair. "I'm so happy, my father decided that you stay here. I knew he would never reject me." Gael propped his chin on his hand, staring at her with a smile. "Sweet boy." Ashina chuckled. Gael linked his hand with Ashina's and tugged at it. "Where are we going?" Ashina asked him. "To my dad's mansion, the place you saw me in when you came earlier, that was my room." Gael said. "I figured." Ashina replied. "You know almost everything and you haven't spent a week here." Gael unlinked his arms and kept hopping from left to right. "You're really smart, you know, you talk like an adult at times." Ashina chuckled. She felt connected to him. He w

Ashina swallowed realised it was Alpha Hrolf She felt intense eyes on her immediately she woke up but hadn't known he was the one, she felt someone staring at her. She sat up immediately. She wasn't able to sleep well in the cell as it was worse than the one they put her in before. Her neck itched and she felt sweaty coupled with the whiny mosquitoes who had decided to disturb her. n Hrolf moved closer to Ashina, his eyes shooting daggers at her. He realised that he was right all along. She wasn't to be trusted, in fact, anyone with the Tala name wasn't to be trusted. He was so sure she healed Gael at first to be free, then she allowed him to get hurt again and pretended to not have the ability to heal again. He didn't have a healer in his Pack, yet he knew healing powers didn't disappear that easily. Their powers didn't just stop unless something was wrong. Was it a physical problem? He thought as he studied her through the illumination of the golden lamp. It didn't seem like

"Alpha, Gael has opened his eyes and he is also speaking. He seems to be fine now." Erik said quickly.Hrolf's face creased in a wide smile when he heard the news about his son. His foul mood disappeared immediately and happiness coursed through him. He was so excited that he forgot about punishing Ashina and walked out of the cell in the direction of his room.Ashina sagged back against the wall and she felt so relieved. Finally, he was awake! She was elated. The news about Gael made her very happy and she thanked the moon goddess for listening to her prayers.Hrolf opened the door and stepped into Gael's room. Closing the door after him, he flung his arms open and covered the distance between the both of them in fast strides. He was so happy. Words couldn't describe how happy he was. He pulled Gael into his arms and inhaled his scent."I missed you, Gael." He admitted.Gael's unconsciousness had made him grumpy, even his guards knew because at the slightest chance he got irritated

Hrolf walked into the cell with a smile on his face. He darted his eyes to a corner where Ashina rested her head on the wall.He studied her sleeping frame for some minutes watching how her chest heaved as she snored softly. He swallowed when he noticed her cleavage and for some reason, he felt attracted.Hrolf approached her, his eyes remaining fixed on the cleavage. However, that short moment was cut when she flipped her eyes open and sat up immediately.Ashina had felt the atmosphere change and that was why she flipped her eyes open. Seeing Hrolf stand before her, she finally understood why she had felt that way."Get up." Hrolf ordered, his face morphing back into an angry expression."." Hrolf walked towards her and she held her breath."You're going to do as I say and I will release you if you do it." Hrolf said.Ashina's brows furrowed when she heard those words from him. And although her heart fluttered, she couldn't help but feel nervous. This wasn't the first time he would t

"Beta, we have an urgent situation I would like to report to you." Erik bowed and informed Cassie whose mind was far away.Ashina followed Hrolf's huge frame down the hallway towards his study. She laced her hands together behind her, wondering why he had called her again.Was this the reason he was searching for when he called her the first time? Had he found it? She hoped that whatever it was, he released her as soon as possible so she could go back to meet Gael. She missed him a lot.She let out a soft breath as he led her into the big office. She closed the door after her and whirled around to wait for him.Hrolf circled his desk, taking in her slender figure in one gaze. He pushed the chair back and sat on it watching her rove her eyes around his study.Ashina couldn't stop herself from taking in the beautiful spacious study. His study was ornately furnished with the finest of wood, richly carved in a style.The large windows were open to let the air cool the room and the light f
