Read Alpha Asher [by Jane Doe] Chapter 58 – While everyone seemed elated over my victory, my stomach continued twisting in knots. Clearly something had happened during the fight, something that chilled me to the bone. I hadn’t won on my own, something had helped me. If I tried to picture the source, I could see smoky tendrils of darkness pulsing at the edge of the forest. They blended in with the shadows, nearly invisible to the nak*d eye. If I focused hard enough, I swore I could see them moving.

The strange surge of strength put Maya on edge. She hated the cold and prickly feeling that caressed our skin. It felt seductive and cold, unfeeling yet addicting. While I hadn’t a clue what I did, I promised myself that would be the last of it.

Alpha Asher’s eyes lingered on the forest line, flickering back to me as he caught my gaze. Something turned in my stomach at the way Alpha Asher looked on at the shadows. My gut was telling me he could see them, slithering into the darkness until called. Even Grandma looked uneasy, her lips turned up into a forced smile. Every now and again her eyes would run over me slowly, as if she were searching for something.

Alpha Bran had been placed out of sight, still unconscious in his wolf form. A sense of smug satisfaction filled me. I had defeated an Alpha. Alpha Bran was a far cry away from Alpha Asher, but I had been successful. Alpha Asher would receive aid from Alpha Bran, and I didn’t have to spend a night with the man.

Once everyone cleared from the training grounds, Alpha Asher and I retreated inside the house. I hugged Breyona and Mason goodbye, promising to meet up with them tomorrow after training. Dad and Grandma had left, Dad’s shoulders lifting with pride as they walked back to the car.

I walked into Alpha Asher’s bedroom without being told, the action simply felt right. After spending these few days with him, I couldn’t imagine sleeping in bed alone. It was strange how attached I became to Alpha Asher, relying on his presence like a crutch. After a while, I stopped questioning the intense sxual attraction I felt towards the man. Now something new was simmering within me. Every intimate move Alpha Asher made was stored in my mind, igniting feelings I hadn’t expected. These feelings weren’t born from lut and allure, but something deeper.

Choosing to focus on anything other than those feelings, I asked Alpha Asher what happened during the fight.

“Did anything—strange happen while I was fighting Alpha Bran?” I frowned, the words tasting sour in my mouth.

Alpha Asher lifted my shirt from my head, another intimate action. I was keeping count at this point, each action making my insides flutter. Alpha Asher insisted we shower but noticed how I seemed to wobble on my own feet. He was incredibly gentle, removing each piece of my clothing with ease. I could hardly feel his fingertips graze my skin as he removed my bra.

Alpha Asher’s lips pressed together tightly, an expression I was beginning to anticipate. His dark brows pressed together, worry clouding his honey colored eyes.
