Alpha Asher
His eyes met hers, filled with a silent promise that she couldn’t quite decipher.
She took a breath, finally breaking the silence. "Asher, why didn’t you ever tell me about your uncle?"
"We’re not close."
Olivia tilted her head, studying him. His voice was calm, but there was an edge to it, as if he was choosing his words carefully. She wasn’t satisfied with such a simple explanation.
"But... he’s your uncle. It seems strange that he’s never come up, especially considering the power dynamics in your family."
Asher’s lips pressed into a thin line, a slight tension building in his posture. He was in the race to become Alpha King as well, back when my grandfather was deciding on his successor."
