Alpha Asher by Jane
Chapter 209
Chapter 209
I didn’t have to be linked to Zeke to feel his hurt. Even if he did hide it perfectly, it was there just beneath the surface, bubbling and festering away like an open wound. Things between Asher and I weren’t always perfect, and I knew from experience how badly it could hurt to be cast aside by your mate.
Zeke didn’t dignify her with a response. He shook his head ruefully and left the room. When he emerged into the observation room, he made a beeline for the door and left without a word. The urge to storm in there and smack the hell out of her was strong, so strong that I had to take a few deep breaths to keep calm.
‘Zeke interviewed Tessa. He just left, so you might run into him.‘ I mind–linked Asher, giving him a heads up before he found out some other way.
Asher’s disappointment trickled down the bond, mixed with his concern for Zeke.
‘She didn’t tell him anything, did she?‘
‘No, she didn’t. She actually said that she’d prefer torture over having to talk to him.‘ I scoffed, glaring at the witch through the double–paned glass.
“If you’re going to stand there and glare at me, you might as well come inside and do it to my face.” Tessa called out, her voice crackling through the speakers mounted in the corners of the room. Who knows, maybe I’ll tell you a secret or two. You wouldn’t imagine the information I’ve got locked in my head.”

I had almost given into her obvious goading, seconds away from storming in there to defend Zeke. Even with her egging me on by holding what she knew
over my head, the way she phrased it made me pause. It was the inspiration for a plan, one that required someone specific for it to work.
‘Hey, Asher. You‘re on your way here, right?‘ I called out, tapping my foot impatiently.
Tessa continued to talk, but I easily tuned her out. She wasn‘t as vicious and condescending as her twin. Her attempts to piss me off were mediocre and half hearted at best.
‘Yeah, I‘m a couple minutes out. Did you need me to bring anything?‘ He replied.
‘Actually, I do. Pick up Zeke and Rowena and bring them here. I‘ve got a plan.‘
“I‘m sorry, you want me to what?” Rowena questioned, her eyebrows lifting.
She smoothed out the flowy dress she wore and lowered herself into one of the metal chairs in the observation room. Zeke sat to her left; his face carved into a permanent scowl.
“I want to know if it’s possible for you to use your magic to get into Tessa’s head.”
