Alpha Asher by Jane
Chapter 168
Read Alpha Asher by Jane Doe Chapter 168 – By the time backup arrived, and Rowena stabilized the Vampire whose heart were still beating after having her throat slit, I was utterly exhausted.
The trick I did, somehow managing to control the otherworldly power that was known for being uncontrollable, left me with little to no energy and a raging case of cotton mouth.
Even worrying about Asher, which I’d been doing since the blood witch said he had problems of his own to deal with, sapped what little strength I had left.
As I swayed where I stood, staring down at the five lifeless bodies, the shadows watched from their hidden alcoves within the forest. Tristan stood nearby, his eyes flitting to my face every few seconds as though he were worried I’d topple over at any moment.
I sure felt like I was, but I’d never admit that.
Instead I frowned at the blood that watered the earth and thought about the words that the blood witch uttered.
“Make use of their blood…” I said quietly, lifting my gaze to peer at the darkness that surrounded us.
Cassidy continued to gnaw on her lower lip, which she’d been doing for the last half hour. “What do you mean by that?”
Tristan grunted, which was indication enough that he knew exactly what I meant.
“As reward for your service, you may feed on the blood that was spilled, only that of the five Vampire’s who needlessly lost their lives this night.” I said to the shadows, my voice strong despite the lead that weighed down my bones and claimed my energy. At the last moment, staring down at the men who had harbored such hatred for someone they knew very little about, I added: “…all I ask is that you return their bodies to the earth.
I wasn’t sure if the tendrils of darkness could feel my lack of strength, or if they were simply that hungry, but they swarmed the ground like the fog that often cloaked the entire town in the early morning hours, when the air was thick with humidity.
Cassidy let out a sound that was halfway between a croak and a wail, taking several steps back though the shadows still slithered around her feet.
“What in the h**l…” She muttered.
Within seconds the ground was clean, free from the blood and the bodies of the d**d Vampire’s.
“Lola, are you alright?” Tristan said quietly, his voice so low that I had to strain to hear him. “You look like you need some sleep…”
