Chapter 58
“We haven’t come here seeking a fight. You all started this! One of you attacked him first,
trespassed into my home and took my kin! You broke the truce that existed between us, and as one of
the lineages of old, you have shamed our covenant” The older woman responded, also looking angry
as her lips quivered.
Asher moved closer to them, his presence growing more intimidating as he took each step. His
glare seemed to pierce the very minds of the women as they trembled when he stood in front of them.
“What are you trying to say… Women? That the Rockwood Pack has betrayed our code?” You
dare insult my pack, my people?” He said, starting to raise his voice.
“N-No! Not all of your people! Just one! I got one scent as I saw the wreckage of my home… Only
one wolf is guilty, and the scent led me right to this place.” The older woman spoke again while the
younger one merely affirmed.
“I see… And have you found your culprit yet?” Asher asked.
“I believe I have…” She said, narrowing her eyes at Asher himself.
“You broke into my cottage and took away someone, didn’t you… Alpha of the Rockwood Pack?” Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Asher looked a bit stunned by her remarks. He couldn’t deny her words since she spoke the truth,
however, he couldn’t also accept her tone and the glare she gave him. He was a brutal and merciless
person, after all.
“You should mind your words, old one. Who is she to you anyway?” Asher asked.
He looked at the two women, and his suspicion grew bigger. Of course, the younger one had a
resemblance to Roxanne, though she was clearly older.
“Perhaps she is her mother” He thought to himself.
The under one could also be her grandmother, and from her scent and story Asher knew she was
the owner of the cottage he broke into. He could smell traces of Roxanne's scent on them which meant
they were telling the truth. It also meant he was right after all, for them to be so conversant with wolf
customs and laws, and for them to have reached the village in such a short span of time, they had to
be werewolves as well.
“And? What if I have? You should understand that the entire region is under my supervision.
Indeed I recall making a truce with you, and I have kept that agreement ever since. However, I can not
return the girl I took” Asher said to them.
“W-What?! Why?!” The younger woman, suspected to be Roxanne's mother, spoke for the first
time since Asher approached them.
“That is because I have taken her to be my bride… She is my mate, and the future Luna of my
pack!” Asher revealed.
The eyes of both women widened when they heard this, shocked by the revelation they received
from the Alpha. The younger one looked the most devastated as she choked in a sob, covering her
mouth slightly. The older one went to comfort the younger woman who seemed to be in grief.
“So you do understand then, what it means. Since I have taken such care to explain the situation,
you should leave this place… Now!” Asher said to them harshly.
The older one looked at Asher with a fierce look and glared at him.
“No! We’re not leaving here till we see Roxanne! Whatever you say or do… We won’t be moved
until we see her ourselves!” The older one said firmly.
“Did I make it seem like you had a choice in the matter?” Asher said to her, gesturing to the
members of the pack to make them leave.
Asher took steps away from them and went further back to witness how his pack members would
drive them away.
“Roxanne is in a very unstable position right now. She is still confused about things and will need
time before she can finally realise our inescapable fate. She has no need for you two. You will only
serve as a distraction for her. Right now she doesn’t need attachments to her previous life, but an
anchor to her new one. I assure you that after Roxanne accepts me as her mate, I will ensure you are
able to safely visit your daughter and even spend time with her” Asher said to them as his people
closed in on them.
“Bullshit! What the hell are you saying? Roxanne can make her own decisions, and the girl I know
would never accept an asshole like you as a mate, you sick man!” The younger woman said with rage.
Upon hearing this, Asher dashed to her immediately, reaching her within a second as he grabbed
her neck.
“Guargghhh” She gagged as she held Asher's hands and tried to move it to no avail.
“I have been extremely patient with you a lot, and have even taken my time to explain the reasons
behind my action. However it seems you are clearly intent on making me upset.” Asher hissed as he
glared at her.
The older woman tried to stop him, however she was prevented from even reaching Asher by half
a dozen men and women. They subdued her as she watched him dominate the younger one.
“You will leave this place and never come back until I send for you. If you even think of trying
anything funny, just remember that your girl is under my protection, and I plan on taking very good care
of her.” He smiled wickedly.
“This is your last warning!” He said, intensifying his gaze as the woman desperately tapped his
hands to let her go, gagging even further!
“LET MY MOTHER GO, YOU BASTARD!!!” Roxanne’s voice echoed loudly as everyone present
appeared shocked by her sudden presence.
Asher hurriedly turned back to see her, but as he turned his face, a heavy slap hit his cheeks. The
slap came from none other than Roxanne, having a very angry face, ready to fight Asher if that was
what it took.
Asher rubbed his cheek with his unoccupied hand and started at Roxanne with a daze. He looked
behind her where Dax and Rita stood and gave them an unbelieving look, demanding their explanation.
But, before they could respond, Roxanne moved closer to him, grabbing him by his collar and moved
her face closer to his with an intense glare written all over it.
“I SAID… LET. HER. GO!” She repeated.
