Ch 15 Lyra's POV There was a vivid feeling in my limbs that I couldn't fathom. My eyes were heavy and my head was out of place. I could hear the conversation of people around me and I knew that I wasn't alone and from the pain in my joints, I could guess that I wasn't safe either. I opened my eyes and the first thing I saw was a group of people and from.my peripheral vision, it seemed that somehow I had become bigger than them. However, the truth was that I was tied to a tree. It was there that the weird feeling originated from. My hands were tied apart from each other around the trew and so were my legs. The group of men looked hostile and they stared at me with great killing intent. I was petrified, my heart was beating violently against my chest and I was in pain. The weird feeling was pain. I recognized them as rogues and I knew that they had an enmity towards me because that could explain the reason why I was tied up. "Please, let me go!" I cried. I didn't even realize t
Lyra's POV The smell of the person that walked in was the same one that was on the air of the room. Alpha Asher. He had come for some reason which could probably be to go to bed as it was his room and where he usually slept. However, he was quiet and made little to no movements like he was standing on a particular spot contemplating what to do next. Meanwhile I was wondering what he could probably be thinking about as he stood at a particular spot. My back was to him so I couldn't see his face but I could only hear and I heard nothing. Well, until he moved his feet and approached the bed where I was lying on under the sheets. I felt the bed sink beside me and I knew he just sat down. The mask was still on my face and I was pretty sure he had no clue that it wasn't Devlin the woman he loved but it was someone else. "Are you asleep, Devlin ?" He asked. His voice was soft like the fur on an animal, his voice sounded rich and melodious to my ears like he was singing a tone. I ha
Lyra's POV Macy's gaze softened visibly after my outburst. I honestly hadn't wanted to make her see from my point of view in that manner. I was frustrated and hated what had happened. I already hated myself for allowing my desires to take control of me but then Macy came and didn't even try to make me feel better. It could be that from what I told her she thought I had done it on purpose, that I actually loved doing such a thing with a man that was with another woman. I felt a humid feeling on my face, I never thought that I was going to cry and hate myself after losing my virginity but I was doing just that. I hated the situation in which I had to lose it and to a man that didn't love me. Macy moved closer to me, she had a pitiful look in her eyes as she sized me up. Maybe her judgemental part had taken a dive and swam away and only now did she realize that she was a friend above all else. She engulfed me in a comfortable hug. "I'm sorry, I was quick to speak". I cried into h
Lyra's POV My breathing hitched up. I couldn't really understand the things that Macy had said before but when I heard the words about being pregnant for Asher, I couldn't sit still. I suddenly lost my appetite and my whole body was spasming in fear that maybe he had ejaculated inside of me and now I was with his child. I feared for the worst, I feared how people would treat me, the names they would call me and how badly I would be alienated. My mother would kill me too, the only thing she was searching for was an excuse to finally end my existence and if she found out that I was pregnant, it was all she needed to do. My heart was beating fast and Macy noticed this. She immediately dropped her spoon and made her way over to me. "I know that you're scared about what is going on now, but I assure you, you have nothing to fear. If it really does happen that you get pregnant, we'll be quick to get rid of it". Macy suggested. I didn't really care about abortions, what I cared most ab
CH 19 Lyra's POV The rest of the day has gone in a blur. I had some time to myself to rest after being kidnapped and mistaken for Devlin so I took a day away from the usual hustle and bustle and stayed in my room. It really wasn't a break when one would wake up with a heavy heart and sleep with tears in my eyes. I was regretting everything from the moment I was born to the minute I laid in my room trying to understand how my life had become like this; mated to someone who already had a mate and was set for marriage. I couldn't allow myself to stop thinking of Asher, j had tried. I had done a lot of things, buried my focus somewhere else but it wouldn't work. Everytime, I see something that reminds me of him and I'm suddenly sent back remembering and thinking of the night we spent together, the night only I remember. I start to think.of the other days that his eyes would passively glance towards me and give me a moment to believe that I was actually alive and well because he brou
Lyra's POV The second I heard Devlin's voice, I knew that this was going to be a very unpleasant meet. Devlin had no reason to like me and moreso she had caught me staring at Asher the other day which provoked her insecurity and hate towards me. Devlin didn't like me and she was sure as hell not to even hide her hatred for me. When she stopped in front of us, she looked at me and her Nana, frowning as if her food had been poisoned, but I knew her ill feeings were only directed at me ans it was because of her hatred for me that made her have that look in her eyes. "What's going on, Nana?" She asked again. The elder smiled lovingly, "I met this girl and she seems quite lovely, dont you think so?" Devlin frowned, "Nana, whats so lovely about this eyesore? You shouldn't be wasting your time staring at her, nobody will judge you for not liking her appearance". The elder frowned, "Devlin, you shouldn't be talking that way. She's quite lovely" she smiled at me. Devlin shook her head l
Asher's POV I have never thought that our first time together would be so amazing. Though Devlin didn't move around so much, I appreciated that she let me take control and the fact that I couldn't see her expression was a downer but at the same time it made me wonder how she looked like when she moaned out my name. I couldn't get the sound of her screaming my name out of my head, I had found myself in a sort of trance, unable to ven think of other things. The only thing I could see was how her lips quivered, how she held the sheets of the bed and how her eyes looked like when they rolled over to the back of her head. I liked how I could see the pleasure she was feeling through her eyes and her lips, I could feel the intensity in her fingers as she ran them through my back scratching me as I moved in and out of her. It was mesmerizing and I enjoyed it a lot and I knew she loved it too. After all was done, she had slept off probably tired, it was her first time and I saw it in the
Lyra's POV. The look on Asher's face was horrifying, he was looking at me so strangely, and I was terrified. I felt tears falling down my eyes as I stared at him. I was extremely worried about what he was going to do. I couldn't even guess what he meant by those words that he would never let me go, and I knew that it wasn't a good thing and I shouldn't feel excited about it. But somehow, I did; somehow, my heart melted at his words even though they were obviously a threat. "Please let me go, I beg of you." Asher shook his head, "No. You made me commit such a heinous crime, and you made me cheat on Devlin. You deceived me, and you're a fucking slut. You should be ashamed of yourself!" "Tell me, how many mean have you played such tricks on? How many people have you seduced? How many have you deceived?" I frowned, yes, it happened, but he was there, and he saw it himself that he was my first. I didn't bring myself to his room, I didn't choose to wake up at that time, nor did I unde
