Alpha Asher by Jane

Chapter 62

Read Alpha Asher [by Jane Doe] Chapter 62 – While I wanted to visit my Grandma and Dad, I had spent the rest of the afternoon with Breyona and Mason. I returned to the packhouse around seven, immediately heading to the kitchen for something to eat. Werewolf appetites were troublesome at times, requiring a large amount of food to keep us sustained.

Alpha Zeke stood in the kitchen, a bowl of chicken and rice in his hands. His black hair was a tousled mess on his head, his large body leaning against the countertop. His eyes twinkled in amusement as I walked into the kitchen.

“Here, I made dinner.” Alpha Zeke grinned, looking much too young for his age. He shoved a bowl of steaming food towards me, his eyes expectant. With little more than a grin, I grabbed the bowl and dug in. Alpha Zeke had something about him that invited you in. While he still had that powerful aura of an Alpha, he was care-free and had a great sense of humor.

“Where’s Alpha Asher?” I kept my voice even with just a hint of curiosity. I forced the longing from my voice. As strange as it felt, I missed him. I hadn’t seen him since training, and had noticed the absence of his presence.

“You call your mate by his title?” Alpha Zeke snorted; his mouth full of food. “I’m not sure what he’s doing. Said he’ll be back shortly though.”

“Did he tell you we were mates?” I pursed my lips, trying to hide the hopeful tone in my voice. Alpha Asher was well over eighteen. He would know if the two of us were mates.

“He hasn’t said anything to me, but it’s pretty obvious.” Alpha Zeke shrugged, his lips pulling up in a smirk, “The way you look at him says it all.”

I wanted to roll my eyes and let a frustrated huff leave my lips. Alpha Asher hadn’t said anything about being my mate. Alpha Zeke had gotten his information from the way I looked at Alpha Asher. The information provided little help, and only frustrated me more.

“I have no idea who my mate is.”I pointed out.

“I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s Alpha Asher.” Alpha Zeke shrugged unbothered but let a smirk form on his face, “He rarely shows interest in women, but I can see what intrigued him about you.”

“He rarely shows interest?” I couldn’t hide the smug satisfaction that lingered in my words. The thought of Alpha Asher ignoring other females was oddly satisfying. If Alpha Asher expected me to belong to only him, I wanted the same in return. Other men hadn’t piqued my interest as well.

‘Other than that Vampire.’ Maya murmured grumpily.

She was right after all. Tristan had grabbed my interest. His ethereal beauty nearly matched Alpha Asher’s. With his hair light as the sun, he had my attention the moment we met. The mark on my shoulder tingled at the thought, a feeling I shoved deep down within me.

Alpha Zeke nearly grimaced, making me wonder if he experienced the same. “They’d obey our every command without argument. It’s not very appealing if you ask me, although Alpha Bran would disagree.
