Novel & Cerita Throttled Lauren Asher Series

Anna smiled flirtatiously as she tried making a conversation with Asher. Asher just ignored her and was disgusted by her act, she still kept twisting her body moving towards him Ivana looked at how the mother and daughter pair behaved shamelessly. “Ivana darling, are you not going to introduce your sister to him?”. Cassie cooed as she eyed Ivana to make them have a conversation. Asher was not even interested. He kept looking at his rolex wrist watch as if he had to be somewhere. Asher was aware of how they treated Ivana through the spies the Jackson's family sent out.

Catching Liora's gaze, one of them suddenly said, "Miss, we haven't seen you before. Who is your husband or father?" Lauren's father had passed away, and she was unmarried. There was no way for her to answer. Liora asked Rhea, "Rhea, do you know her?" Rhea's cold gaze cut across Lauren. "I do. She's Lauren Thayer, the eldest daughter of the Thayer family in Colburn." "The bankrupt Thayer family?" The woman who spoke earlier was surprised. "A distant relative of mine in Colburn mentioned it. After the Thayers went bankrupt, the husband and wife passed away, and the only daughter supposedly had kids out of wedlock and then disappeared. Could that… be you?"

"That's why his ritual started working the moment he got her blood. He's not just opening a gateway. He's using her bloodline to unlock the original seal. To undo the binding that's kept the demon realm contained for centuries." "The warehouse attack," Marcus said slowly. "That wasn't random." "Nothing was random." July pulled up more sketches. "Mom showed me flashes of other things. Asher's been planning this for years. He knew Thessara would eventually awaken as a Moon Child. He's been waiting, watching, setting pieces in place. And—" She hesitated, looked at me with something like guilt. "Mom's accident wasn't an accident. Asher caused it." My blood turned to ice. "What?"

Finally, Ashley, all dressed up and looking amazing, was ready for the night that would always be special because of her engagement to Thorian. In the quiet confines of her room, Thalia paced anxiously, the air thick with her restless energy. Biting her fingers, she couldn’t shake the unsettling feeling that something significant was slipping away. Suddenly, she stopped in her tracks, shaking her head as if trying to dispel unwelcome thoughts. In a moment of frustration, she blurted out, “I can never let Ashley become the next Luna, not as long as I’m still alive.”

It was superb. "Why are you guys in the same shirts? Did you fight or wet your clothes on the plane?” Mrs. Thorne asked. The boys fell quiet and ignored her. I didn't know what to say or do till she looked back and hit me with a fierce glare. "It…we…” I stuttered nervously. "Gifted. We were gifted.” Asher spoke up. I was angry he didn't speak up earlier. "Are you resuming at Blue Lake?” Mrs. Thorne asked me.

"Guards!" Lauren cried out. She was soaked in cold sweat as a wave of hopelessness washed over her. She had just felt the unmistakable sensation of a divine realm expert pinning her down. "Get out of here and save Queen Eden, Ashton! I'll stay behind to cover you!" Lauren's eyes flashed with resolve. She had already prepared herself for a fight to the death. A series of deafening explosions rang out, and Lauren's guards were thrown through the air by a succession of heavy blows, leaving arcs of blood in their wake. It wasn't long before a squad of formidable assassins descended upon them, effectively surrounding both Lauren and Ashton.

I had promised myself I’d go through those files as soon as we made it back to the house, but the moment I curled up into the warmth of Asher’s teenage bed, my looming exhaustion swallowed me whole. “What happened to those important files?” He asked, his voice gravely. “This is the seventh three a.m. call in a month.” I grumbled when Asher began to move me, his muscular arms forming a cage around my torso. His eyes dripped honey and were hooded as he watched me, “As Luna and Vampire Queen, I declare that just this once, we’re going back to sleep.”

I prodded the leaves with my fork, managing a minuscule bite. The silence in the vast hall was a heavy cloak, punctuated only by the faint clinking of silverware. I could feel Blair's stare, a physical weight on my skin. Slowly, deliberately, I raised my eyes to meet hers. The impact was like a shard of ice down my spine. My hands, hidden beneath the table, twisted the fabric of my dress tighter. "So, Thalia," Blair began, her voice a silken purr laced with venom, "to what do we owe this… sudden enthusiasm for family?"

“Jilin's request surprised me a little. It is not exactly common to get reinforcements from other guilds for a comparably simple mission. " "We just want to make sure that the Iubas get to their destination without incident," I remarked a little pointedly. Now he couldn't ignore me anymore. "Hi, it seems you haven't noticed me yet, there is no other way I can explain your rude behavior. I am Grace Shanks, Venator Grace Shanks. "

He had to take a few deep breaths for him to calm down. "Have fun." Eliphas blinked at him and left the room. Ashton looked at him and chided him for being so shameless and went over to the table to carry the sleeping Maya. She had just made her first shift and it was an exhausting process. Although she was now a complete werewolf and could recover her strength in a snap, it was still her first and it was perfectly normal for her to be exhausted. Standing up, Ashton realized that he was not drunk at all. Even his mind seemed more clear than before.
