Lowbred, unwanted, and a servant of the Alpha's Mansion, Anna Kendra just wanted a quiet life with a mate who would accept her for the runt she was. But her life took a U-turn when she discovered the craziest thing. A mate bond, to the one person who wanted nothing to do with a 'prostitute' like her.
View MoreAnna’s P.O.VAsher had been gone since that morning when I told him I was in an open relationship with Tony. I was trying to persuade Evan to eat his breakfast when Sen informed me that Asher had been called away to deal with an urgent company matter. I absorbed the news silently and held myself back from pointing out that it was very strange and almost impossible that Asher would hold a business meeting on a Sunday. It really was none of my business. I spent the rest of the day in a weird numbed state and forced a smile when Ivan and Evan tried to play with me.I was just…I think I missed him and the thought that I was the one who had run him off made my throat tight.Sunday dragged off into Monday and there was still no word from him. On Tuesday, dozens of red roses were delivered to the mansion. And yeah, there was no note accompanying it, only a black card with his name scrawled across it with gold ink. Why had he sent the roses? I wondered as tears filled my eyes, burying my face
Asher’s P.O.V"I need you to book the most available premium first-class flight to Angeles-Dark Moon pack," I barked into the phone, my patience wearing thin like the threads of a frayed rope. I had to go back home for whatever reason my step-mother needed me or I might risk her discovering Anna and the kids. Whilst I didn’t have proof concerning what happened five years, I knew how intense my step-mother could be, especially with how she wanted me to marry Vira at all costs.Sen's confusion was palpable, even over the phone. "Asher, what's going on? Why are we heading back to the pack?" His voice was laced with concern, like a gentle prod to my already frazzled nerves.I snapped, my temper flaring like a wildfire. "Just do it, Sen. Don't question me." My words were sharp as a whip, lashing out at the one person who dared to challenge me.Less than ten minutes later, Sen called back, his voice hesitant, like a child tiptoeing around a sleeping bear. "Asher, there's a problem. There ar
I slumped back in my chair, my eyes fixed on Sen as he stood before my desk, his expression grim. "So, how's the investigation going?" I asked, my voice low and urgent. "Have you uncovered what happened between Anna and my stepmother five years ago?"Sen sighed, his shoulders sagging. "Asher, there's something fishy going on. I can feel it. Whatever happened five years ago, it's like someone's gone to great lengths to cover it up."My grip on my pen tightened. "What do you mean? You're telling me someone's hiding something?"Sen nodded. "I'm telling you, Asher, it's like a brick wall. I can't find any leads, any evidence. It's as if someone's erased all traces of what really happened."My mind raced as a whirlwind of thoughts ran amok in my brain. "Keep digging, Sen. Question everyone who was involved. Especially my mother's head maid. She was always tight-lipped, but I'm sure she knows more than she's letting on."Sen nodded, his eyes determined. "I'll get to the bottom of it, Asher.
Asher's p.o.v:.I suddenly snapped up, my mind foggy and my head pounding. I tried to remember the events of the previous night, but my drunken brain was a jumbled mess. One thing was certain, though - I had slept with Black Rose. Or so I thought. The memories were hazy, but I could swear I remembered her perfect curves, her sultry voice, and her intoxicating scent.But as I turned around, my hand instinctively reaching out to pat the bed beside me, my heart sank. It wasn't Black Rose lying there, naked and serene. It was Anna. My mind raced with confusion and panic. What had I done? Had I really cheated on Anna with Black Rose? The memories were too fuzzy to trust, but the guilt was already eating away at me.I rubbed my temples, trying to ease the migraine that threatened to split my skull open. Think, think, think. What had happened last night? I remembered going to the restaurant, having a more than a few drinks with Vira and then... nothing. Just fragments of images and sensation
Asher's P O.Vtwo hours later.I closed my eyes for a moment as my mind became foggy. The only thing I could think about was her arm that was still wrapped around my waist, and it burned. So, without much thought, I muttered a silent curse and slammed our lips together, my feet stumbling and her arm tightening around my shirt.“A-Asher,” she muttered between kisses, and a shiver ran down my spine.“You’re still drunk, I—“ “I want you,” I cut her off, finding her eyes in the darkness. My hand came to cup her cheeks.“I want to feel myself buried inside of you again, Anna,” I choked out, and my thumb slipped into her parted lips. I brought it out and rubbed it on her lips, coating them with her saliva.Anna wrapped her hands around my neck, her fingers fisting into my dark locks. Our lips moved in sync, and our teeth clashed against each other.With my left hand, I pushed the door wider, and we stumbled into the dark room. We found our way to the bed without our lips leaving each other
Asher’s P.O.V“You’re drunk.” Anna whispered, propping her palms on my chest. Through my blurred gaze, I could barely see her face…but one thing bit at me. Her hair. It had the blonde and red strands Black Rose’s always had, but I couldn’t be sure when I was so fucking drunk like this.Slowly, she slid away from me and I struggled to my own feet. Anna also seemed taller…what the hell was going on?A slight pounding started in my head and I reached for the lights switch to provide some light to the house when Anna’s fingers wrapped around mine. “You should go to bed…” She whispered sultrily and pressed a kiss to my lips.I felt my heart slam hard against my ribcage and my initial thoughts escaped by brain. All I could focus on was the feel of her lips moving her mine. she tasted sweet and I wanted more.When she pulled away from me, I dazedly brought my hand to my lips, my stomach fluttering like I was a teenage girl.“Come,” She whispered, her face unclear in the dark. “Let me help yo
Asher’s P.O.VI stormed out of the apartment, my rage boiling over like a pot left unattended. Reaching my car in a matter of seconds, I roughly twisted the doorknob, but the damn thing didn’t give. Frustration bubbled in my gut and I was about to kick the fender when the door gently clicked open from the inside.Surprised and pissed, I slid into the car, ready to unleash my fury on the nearest target.But my anger deflated like a punctured tire when I saw my Beta sitting in the driver’s seat. “What the hell are you doing here?” I growled, my frown deepening. Did he hide in the fucking bonnet while I started the car in the garage?Sen gave me a weird look, his eyes squinting slightly. “You don’t remember, do you, Asher?”I scowled, too pissed for whatever shit Sen was about to give me. “Remember what?”“I drove you here,” He said calmly. “You asked me to fetch the car keys and I brought you to Anna’s apartment.”Huh? That wasn’t how I fucking remembered it.At his words, a terrible po
Anna’s P.O.VI felt a nervous flutter in my chest as Asher’s eyes narrowed, his emerald depth;s piercing through me like a dagger. I knew I had to explain, to make him understand. Because honestly, I could tell how awkward this seemed and how it was easy to come to a wrong conclusion.“Asher, uhm I didn’t expect to see you here,” I started awkwardly and almost bit my tongue. Goddess, that was exactly what a guilty person said. “Tony was in an accident, and instead of going to the hospital, he came over because he was in the area. I was once a nurse…after I left your pack…”Trailing off, I twisted the hem of the huge shirt I had on, feeling oddly naked. The only parts of my body that were exposed were my legs from under the basketball shorts I had on! But from how every hair on my body stood on end, I could as well be without clothes.Tony was lounging lazily on the couch, humor alight in his eyes as he watched me falter in my unnecessary explanation to Asher. Oh goddess, this was horr
Asher’s P.O.VI woke up with a start, my heart racing, my mind foggy, but one thing was clear—the name that had escaped my lips in my first stir into consciousness—Anna.’ I rubbed my eyes, trying to shake off the haze. And the movement caused memories to flood my head. Not memories of the night I spent at Westside drinking with Black Rose, but a fucking lucid dream where Black Rose morphed into Anna right in front of me. Black Rose. The mysterious woman who had been taunting me, teasing me, driving me mad with desire. And Anna…sweet innocent Anna, the mother of my children. Could it be? No, I was crazy to even think it. The possibility of Anna and Black Rose to be the same person… just didn’t add up.But the seed of doubt had already been planted in my heart and I couldn’t shake it off.I threw off the covers and got out of my bed, heart thumping a mad staccato against my ribcage. I needed to know.‘Sen,’ I mindlinked, striding out of my room to search for him.I found him in the livi
