Violet’s POV
I went looking for Asher. I wanted to know what he was
planning–what he was handling on his own, away from me.
But just as I reached the corridor near Jason’s quarters, he
stepped out, blocking my way. He looked almost amused.
“You might want to give them some time,” Jason said, arms
crossed. “Asher and Ava. They’re getting along quite well these
days.”
“Stop bluffing, Jason.” I narrowed my eyes. “This won’t work on
me.”
“Bluffing?” He chuckled. “I’m just saying what I saw. Asher and
Ava, embracing each other. Alone. Why do you think I’m
standing outside?”
I didn’t respond.
“Don’t believe me, right?” Jason tilted his head. “Come, see for
yourself.”
Chapter 202
Philip had already told me that Asher went to meet Ava. I didn’t
believe anything Jason said–I just followed him because he
knew where Asher was.
Jason led me past the side hall toward one of the private
courtyards.
And then I saw them.
Ava was standing close to Asher, her hand resting on his arm.
She leaned in and kissed him on the cheek.
Asher let her kiss him? Had he already decided to marry Ava?
I didn’t mind if that was the only way to save the child, but why
didn’t he tell me?
Jason’s voice came again. “I think you’re seeing exactly what I’m
seeing. Ava kissing Asher.”
I couldn’t bother to hear any more of Jason’s teasing. But he
wasn’t wrong. I did see what was happening.
Actually, it wasn’t just what I saw–it was everything that had been happening. Since the curse, nothing felt the same. I felt like I was losing everything, piece by piece.
Chapter 202
Then, Asher saw me watching them. I couldn’t make eye
contact with him anymore. So, I turned and walked away–and I
didn’t stop until I reached our private chambers.
Asher followed me.
“Violet–wait.”
I didn’t.
“Please. Just stop.”
I didn’t stop in the hallway because I didn’t want to break down
there.
After we reached our chamber, Asher stood in front of me. “It
wasn’t what it looked like.”
“Then what was it?”
“A setup. I was trying to negotiate with her. I lost my guard. She
kissed my cheek in that moment. That’s all.”
I didn’t respond.
He stepped closer. “You think I’d choose her over you?”
I kept quiet for a second, unsure how to even say what I was
Chapter 207
thinking
“I don’t know what to think anymore. Maybe marrying her is
the only way to end all of this
“No,” he said firmly. “Don’t say that
“It could save us.”
“And it would destroy us in the process,” he said. “You and the
baby are my life. I’m not giving that up”
His voice cracked at the end. He looked away for a second, then
back at me.
“I’ve begged. I’ve negotiated with people I can’t stand. Offered territory, made deals with enemies, tried everything I could
think of. And none of it worked.”
His tone was raw now. “I’m supposed to be the Alpha King. I’m supposed to have the strength and the answers. But right now, I
have nothing”
His jaw tensed. “Every night, I stay up thinking what else I can do. And every morning, I watch you fight to stay alive, and it kills me. I can’t save you. I can’t save our child. What kind of
mate does that make me?”
Chapter 202
It had been a long time since Asher expressed his feelings this
raw. Did I just forget Asher had been suffering more than me?
People saw me as the one in pain–but they didn’t see what it
was doing to him. While I was fighting the curse inside me, he
was carrying all the weight around it. He’d been holding
everything together–alliances, plans, this kingdom–and now he
was falling apart quietly; right in front of me.
And still, he hadn’t stopped.
This man, who had gone to everyone–friend or enemy–just to
save our child, and our clan.
I couldn’t watch him tear himself down like that. I loved him
too much to let him keep blaming himself. Because even if I was breaking apart, he was hurting just as deeply.
Because he needed to know–I still believed in him. To me, he
was the best wolf king and mate.
So, I stepped forward and kissed him.
It took Asher by surprise, so much so that he kept looking at me
for a while.
“You don’t have to blame yourself. Remember, I told you we
Chapter 202
will face everything together?” Finally, I broke the silence. Then
I put my hand on his hand, brushing against it.
Asher pulled me into his arms and embraced me. We started
embracing each other after so long, and soon it turned into a
passionate moment.
When we pulled apart, Asher grabbed my waist with his right
hand while caressing my cheek with his left hand.
“Oh, Asher! I missed this so much,” I said, curling my face
against his hand.
“Me too,” Asher said, looking into my eyes.
Then he pulled me closer and started kissing me passionately.
We both were starting to feel the heat now. I was feeling it
more than him due to the pregnancy. So, I tucked my hands
inside his shirt, feeling his thick back muscles while kissing him
more strongly.
Soon, I took the shirt off him, while Asher couldn’t stop his
hands either. He removed my gown, gazing at my curves,
which had become more defined due to the slight weight I had
put on.
“Violet, your curves are just driving me crazy. I want to cherish
Chapter 202
every part of you,” Asher said, contouring his hands over my
body.
“Ahh! Asher, it has been so long. I am wet already, I moaned,
aligning my bare body against his. The warmth of our bodies
just made me wetter.
“And you make me hard, baby.” Asher picked me up in his arms
and put me on the bed. It felt so amazing to be picked up like
this.
He teased me with a finger caressing my lips, then he inserted it
in my mouth as I began to suck it. His tease persisted, so I gave
his finger a bite.
“Ow!” Asher groaned, then chuckled.
His lips took place instead of his finger, and we kissed deeply.
But Asher then pulled apart, it seemed he had different plans.
He started kissing my neck, licking the skin, slowly lowering as
he tasted me and drove me mad. As he reached my breasts, he
cupped one of my breasts and took my nipple with two fingers,
twisting it and making me moan.
“Ah! Asher… Yes. Don’t stop.”
Chapter 202
Then he brought his tongue near my nipples, teasing me. I just
couldn’t bear it and grabbed his head, pushing him closer to my
nipples.
His tongue was now gently pushing my nipple back and forth,
driving me crazy.
“Ummm! Fuck! So good, I moaned, now completely losing
myself.
While he played with my nipples, first one then the other, his
hands reached down to my panties and pushed them down,
leaving me completely exposed. He then touched me and felt
my wetness, which made him groan and push himself down
between my legs.
He spread my legs, and my skin filled with goosebumps, and his
eyes locked with mine as he started to lick me slowly. I was
gasping, shaking, completely aroused and abandoned in the
pleasure he was bringing me.
I was close to reaching climax, but I didn’t want this amazing
feeling to end yet, not after all this time we hadn’t been
intimate, so I closed my legs, gently pulling his face up, and met
his confused eyes.
Chapter 202
“I want to please you too,” I whispered, and his smile made
know it was the right thing.
He laid down, and I turned to dedicate my attentions to him.
Kissing his lips briefly, to then repeat the same path he took on
- me. I closed my eyes, licking his nipple, feeling his breathing
become ragged, his fingers entangling on my hair, massaging it
as I kissed every part of him that I could.
When I reached to his pelvis, he held his breath, and I took his
cock in my hands, caressing it slowly, stroking him as I gave its
head a kiss.
“Fuck,” he groaned, and I smiled, knowing our lick was making
this even more intense.
I started to lick him, and without wasting time, I started to suck
his cock, slowly letting it in my mouth. My tongue rubbed
against his shaft as it went in and out of my mouth, and he
grunted, closing his eyes, twitching in my mouth.
“Baby,” he gasped, probably so close to climax, and he then
pushed me away, just like I did before, and picked me up,
getting me on hips lap, lowering me gently, making me straddle
him.
Chapter 202
My body arched, my nipples were hard, a hand holding me to
him as I sat and felt him dig deep inside of me. His other hand caressed my nipples again, and I moaned in a wild way, feeling
electricity all over me.
He was so loving and caring, moving slowly at first, allowing me to adjust to him once more after so long, and build up the climax we both desperately wanted.
But then he started to move faster, my nails digging his skin as I moaned louder. “I love hearing you moan, cum with me baby,” he whispered heatedly in my ear as he started to fuck me faster.
I cried, exploding into a million pieces, shaking and tasting our ecstasy. He didn’t hold either, and he moaned as he started cumming and filling me with his seed, making me shake and
tremble in pleasure.
Shaking, I laid down in bed, catching my breath just like me, and both of us holding each other. He smiled as he opened to
find my eyes.
“It has been a very long time since I came this hard,” he said as
he kissed me.
“Yes, it has been so long, but I think we need to remind
Chapter 202
ourselves that. we have each other, right here, right now,” I
pressed my forehead against his, feeling his heat.
“We will always be together, no matter what happens, I am the
Wolf King, and you are my mate,” he affirmed, locking his eyes
with mine.
I smiled, nodding, I didn’t need anyone more than him, and I
knew he was right. I finally closed my eyes, resting my head
comfortably in his chest, falling asleep feeling safe and loved.
