Alpha Asher by Jane

Chapter 145

Read Alpha Asher by Jane Doe Chapter 145 – It wasn’t the sunlight streaming through open c******s that woke me, but Beta Drake’s gruff baritone. His voice d*****d out the steady thud of Asher’s heart which was right below where my head was resting.

‘Lola, are you with Asher right now?’

My spine protested angrily as I rolled off Asher’s chest, which I had been sprawled across seconds ago, and plopped down on the floor. The last thing I remembered was being wrapped in his arms, letting his warmth and strength flow into me as I told him how Breyona almost died.

I didn’t want to tell him what I’d done. There wasn’t a single part of me that regretted it, not once I saw the look of pure relief in Giovanni’s eyes and knew how close he had been to snapping, but I was still ashamed and horrified. There was no telling what or who they would take.

Instead of saying the words out loud, I let Asher relive every agonizing second through our bond. Every emotion I felt and word I had screamed echoed in our heads, ending seconds after Breyona’s last gurgled breath when the shadows swarmed us.

Asher’s arms tightened around me, and his stubble coated cheek grazed my face, but he said nothing. I preferred it this way, listening to the sound of him breathing instead of false reassurances. There was a price to be paid, and when the time came, I’d have no choice but to accept it.

I was halfway asleep when Asher said, “Breyona wasn’t wounded when I ran past her. If she was, I wouldn’t have left her there.”

“You said you chased the witch past the pack boundaries?”‘ I frowned, cracking an eye open to stare up at him. “I felt the witch last night, hiding in the forest. She was watching Breyona and I, but she left before the shadows…y’know.”

There two witches messing with us last night, I was sure of it.

Surprisingly, I slept like a rock after that. I could’ve taken it as a good sign, but instead I saw it as an omen. My mind couldn’t conjure up a nightmare that was more frightening than reality.

‘She is.’ Asher replied to Drake, smirking when I turned and caught him watching me. ‘Why, what’s up?’
