“Our enemy did this to us. And we’re staying back to end this
shit,” I cupped her face, saying firmly. “We’ll find Michael. And
we will put an end to Isaac’s plans. This stops now!”
Violet’s POV
I trusted Asher. I always did. But trust didn’t mean I agreed
with his decisions.
Sending Mia away, even if it was to save her, felt like another
punch to the gut. My heart was already torn apart, and now it
felt like it had been shredded completely.
Still, I knew he was right. This was the only way. It didn’t make
it hurt any less.
Asher picked Mia up from the bed and sent her to Simon. I
couldn’t even bring myself to follow them. Goodbye was too
hard for me. I knew I’d drown myself in tears before I could say
that word out to my girl.
I was so fucking tired. Tired of people using us, hurting us,
testing us. It felt like we were constantly fighting to survive the
Chapter87
schemes and tricks. Asher must feel it too–I could see it in the
way his shoulders stayed tense, the crease in his brow that
never seemed to fade. When was the last time he laughed from
his heart? I couldn’t even remember.
When Asher came back into the room, I was sitting on the edge
of the bed, staring blankly at the wall. He didn’t say anything at
first. He just walked over and wrapped his arms around me
from behind, his warmth instantly soothing me.
I leaned back into him, letting out a long, shaky sigh.
“Asher,” I murmured, my voice heavy with exhaustion. “I don’t
know how much more of this I can take“”
His lips brushed against my neck, soft and gentle, and I felt my
eyes sting with unshed tears. “We’ll get through this,” he said
quietly. “Just a bit longer, Violet. Stay with me.”
I turned to face him, my hands gripping his shirt tightly as
though he were the only thing keeping me grounded.
“I’m always here for you!” I smiled through my tears. Although
there’s turmoil, he was my anchor. “Remember? I took a vow
for that. To cherish and to behold.”
“I know. And me too!” he murmured, “I wish we can stay in this
Chapter87
moment forever. No council, no Isaac, no chaos. Just us.””
Something in his tone, in the way his eyes softened as he looked
at me, broke down the walls I’d been holding up. Without
another word, he kissed me, his lips capturing mine in a way
that made me forget everything else. It wasn’t just a kiss–it was
so much more, a need to find solace in each other amid the
storm.
Before I knew it, we were tangled together, our breaths mixing.
We striped each other naked as fast as we could. He picked up
my legs and slammed himself right into me.
I screamed. His huge cock was stretching me. It filled me
completely, all the way into my core. I couldn’t think straight.
I’d forgotten everything. And this was exactly what I needed
now. Crazy sex to shut my mind.
“Oh god Asher.yes. Oh please.” I panted and begged in tears,
clinging to his shoulders. “Fuck me.Ahh I want you.”
It was so satisfying, so fulfilling, him inside of me might just be
the best thing in the world. I started rocking my butt
underneath him, riding him. He cursed and picked up the pace.
“Fuck, fuck.oh yeah babe. Oh Evelyn! This is.you are so
Chapter87
beautiful.”
He fucked so hard that even the bed was squeaking. The
intensity of his gaze, his rock hard muscle, his scent, his
throbbing dick.Everything about him made me crazy.
Every touch, every kiss, every whispered word was a reminder
that no matter how much the world tried to break us, we still
had this–each other.
When it was over, I lay against his chest, completely wore out
but finally at ease. His fingers traced lazy circles on my back,
and for the first time in what felt like forever, I felt safe.
“We need a vacation,” I said suddenly. “When this is all over,
we’re going somewhere far away. Just us. No council, no packs,
no responsibilities. A real break.”
Asher chuckled softly, the sound rumbling through his chest.
“A vacation, huh? Where do you want to go?”
“I don’t even care,” I admitted. “Somewhere quiet perhaps?
Somewhere no one can find us.”
“I like the sound of that,” he said, his tone thoughtful. “Just you
and me, no one else. I’ll hold you to that, you know.”
Chapter87
I smiled against his chest, letting out a soft sigh. “I know these
last few days haven’t been easy for you either. I was so caught
up in the whole Mia thing that I didn’t even get a chance to
ask.how are you feeling now? About Isaac?”
