Alpha Asher by Jane
Chapter 211
Chapter 211
I was so unfathomably tired of death.
The pale rider and I knew each other intimately. We were partners in a dance I no longer remembered the movements for, one I wished would end already but knew never would.
There were so many fallen wolves. So many families to contact, so many devastating blows to land.
Just as many, if not more, witches littered the ground.
They had friends, I‘m sure. Families that would wonder where they were or if they were ever coming back. They would be mourned by someone, somewhere.
It had taken me months to no longer have nightmares of my father‘s severed head tumbling from his shoulders, rolling across the ground in a sea of blood. Every
time I escaped the pull of a nightmare, a new one sprouted in its place, brought on by all of the death and carnage.
Even now, after all these months, I couldn‘t even look at grass without seeing flashes of it covered in blood.
I kept to Asher‘s side, shifting between human and wolf as I killed in both forms. Each life I took broke something inside of me that could never be fixed.
Asher was horrifically elegant in his wolf form, slashing throats and sinking his teeth into anything that wielded magic. He knew the dance moves, knew death much longer than I had. There were rare beings in this world born and bred to send people to the other side.
Asher was one of these beings. The more ! killed and slaughtered, the faster I realized that I was not.
So, I piggybacked off his strength and ferocity, letting his one–track mind
smother my feelings of regret and doubt.
We searched through the sea of crimson high and low looking for Ember, but she wasn‘t here.
I used my magic sparingly, diffusing some of the more powerful witches before they had a chance to kill any more of our warriors. I‘d just slashed through a miniature fucking tornado when I hesitated.
The witch that had conjured it was a child, barely a pre–teen.
Her face was round, her cheeks plump and flushed with blood. The rise and fall of her chest were heavy, spattered with blood that could‘ve easily been hers or someone else‘s. Seeing my hesitation, she blinked in surprise. Her lips opened to form a small‘o,‘ and her fingers twitched like she wasn‘t sure what to do next.
