The She-Devil And Her Alphas

Chapter 75 - Seventy - Five : He Had To Protect His Mate

" Seriously dude, cut it out! Your thought is all over the place and it's driving me crazy " Dan complained irritated and raking his hand through his hair .

For the first time in history, he was able to read Asher's mind cause he let his guard down, and yes at first he was happy, but now it was becoming a nuisance.

"I think I figured out everything " Asher said with an excited glint in his eyes.

Dan sighed " Yes, I heard it in my head "

"The witch was right! The girl is my mate. Though originally mated to Daniel but the incident which is as a result of the dark witches conspiracy, made her gain a vampiric and a were side. Personally, I think her vampiric side is stronger which in turn made her imprint on me and I also -"

"Yeah, yeah, she's your mate. I get that already" Dan interrupted him, rolling his eyes from boredom. This was the nth time he heard his theory tonight .

Asher rubbed his chin thoughtfully " What do you think Daniel would do if he finds out everything? "

"What do you think he would do? Everyone knows the were-creatures value their mates above everything else , especially Alphas " answered Dan truthfully .

Asher licked his lips, pondering on his words. His gaze flickered up to Dan again and he said " At first I was happy when I discovered the truth but the thought of sharing her with Daniel unsettles me a lot. I mean how are we even going to make this work? "

At first Dan was confused, but the moment he understood where Asher was coming from, he laughed his head off.

Though as funny as it sounds, it was quite a pressing issue. Like seriously, how in the world were they going to have *snusnu? By chance, they wouldn't think of doing it in turns, would they? or a threesome?

Dan shook his head and shuddered, he wouldn't even dare think about that.

" What about Caroline ? " Dan asked, finally discovering a topic that would take his mind off his lewd thoughts.

Asher frowned " Caroline? " He clarified " She became a thing of the past the moment I found out about Lia "

"And she's cool with that? "

"Why shouldn't she be? She knew from the start our relationship was just for pleasure and a temporary arrangement " he conceded as Dan made a 'mmmm' sound.

" Fine " Dan shrugged but suddenly noticed a change in Asher's demeanor.

"Why? What's wrong? "

Asher grimaced " I feel strange "

"Strange as in? " He prodded when Asher didn't give him a solid explanation.

Asher explained with uncertainty "I feel distressed and uncomfortable as if..... " His voice trailed off

Suddenly, his eyes narrowed suspiciously

" Lia? "

Dan asked confused " Lia ? What's wrong with Lia? "

Unfortunately, Asher didn't answer him instead prompted him immediately " Quick ! take me to her place, I think she's in danger "

He hurriedly placed a hand on Dan's shoulder and he teleported the both of them to her place at once.

They found themselves in front of her house but Asher was quick to say

"She's not home "

Dan turned to stare at him surprised " How did you know? " He asked.

"I just felt it "

Which Dan proved true when he couldn't pick up the girl's scent.

"You're right " Dan agreed and had already planned leaving when they picked up discussions coming from the living room.

Asher clearly heard a voice which he guessed belongs to Jenny , asking

"So tell me Trevor, how do you feel about this Caroline girl that invited Lia to her house party? "

Asher froze, he didn't need to hear further cause he had put two and two together quickly .

His expression darkened and his gaze turned bloody, Caroline would be damned if she lays a finger on her.

Dan shivered when he saw the rage in Asher's eyes. He heard the conversation and though he wasn't as smart as Asher, but he knew it was by no means a coincidence that Lia gets to be in danger in a party Caroline invited her to.

Caroline knows everything about the supernaturals cause the Garcia's are one of the founding families of little Town and it wasn't a secret that Asher has been favouring Lia lately.

Never underestimate the power of a jealous woman.

Dan didn't wait for Asher to order him this time, he silently teleported the both of them to Caroline's place but something happened.

As soon as they appeared, their knees buckled and they slumped to the ground, wracked by a haunting scream.

Thankfully the ordeal didn't last long cause soon the scream ended and they were eased from the paralyzing effect.

But the scene that confronted them left them stunned.

Young people were running helter-skelter trying to get away from the mansion, all characterized by bleeding ears .

The once regal mansion that could turn heads was half ruined. The east wing of the house had collapsed completely while some walls buckled and were bent.

Most bulbs were destroyed and the once still giving light were flickering on and off, giving the place an eerie feeling .

Infact, everything was a mess.

As he walked into the mansion, Asher was troubled. Though he was confused at what was going on but he had a bad premonition in his heart.

He had a gut feeling that his mate was responsible for this magnitude of destruction.The girl's existence so far has shocked him a lot, so he wouldn't be surprised if this was her doing too.

He traced her scent to the basement where he found Caroline on all fours, clutching her stomach and moaning in pain - still yet no sign of his mate.

But that was until he caught a rancid yet familar scent in the air and sighed deeply.

He was late, Daniel was here before him.

Frustrated and angry, he grabbed Caroline by the collar and drew her up to her feet.

"What did you do?! " he roared at her and though she stared at him wide-eye frightened yet her gaze was groggy.

Peeved , Asher tried to scare her further but all he got in return was her pained grunts and incoherent mumbling.

Exasperated, he pushed her away and she dropped to the ground with a loud thud.

Asher has never being frustrated in his entire life until now and he knew his time was limited.

There was was no way the council would leave such a huge scale disaster like this unattended to, so they must have sent out their agents to come and investigate what was going on.

That is if they were not here already.

Immediately, Asher squat down and grabbed Caroline's chin, lifting her face to his gaze and began his compulsion.

"You are not to remember Lia and any previous encounters you've ever had with her, understood?"

Under his control, Caroline couldn't resist but nod her head obediently and he let go of her satisfied.

He could have erased all her memories but he know it would seem suspicious and completely risky if the council happens to interrogate her, since he knows the founding families have a tight relationship with the council.

But he had to protect Lia, especially now he has confirmed she was his other half.

So he looked around carefully, searching for any evidence that could implicate his mate and when he found nothing, he left.

Asher still had one more thing to do and that was finding his favourite human, Ben. He knew wherever Lia was, he would surely be there and he alone could tell him what went down here.

Unfortunately Asher made a mistake - He forget that just as Ben would always be around Lia, Alexa and Linda would always be around Caroline too.
