Read Alpha Asher [by Jane Doe] Chapter 71 – Lola’s P.o.v
The power of our deal rippled through the air, sending a chilling wave over my body. The wave rippled and cracked, as though it were made of ice. Instead of passing over me, it delved into my skin and sunk deep into my bones.
A heavy shiver wracked my body, my teeth clattering roughly as the cold settled into my bones. Goosebumps erupted across my flesh as the shadows grew still.
The power that rippled over my skin dimmed as the shadows returned to their normal place in the room. Their whip-like voices faded from mind as the shadows lingering around the room stilled.
The cold had not faded from my bones, and I wasn’t sure it would. I felt as though I were in a walk-in freezer, and was surprised when I couldn’t see the puff of hot breath leave my mouth.
“What did you do?” Alpha Asher roared, his voice taking on that of an animal.
I had been frozen in place, rooted to the spot where I had made that cursed deal. I had given into the shadows without trying to find an alternative.
‘He would have died, Lola…’ Maya’s voice was soft, but held the weight of the decision I had made.
“What did you do, Lola?” Alpha Asher snarled, his large hands grasping my arms. “What did you give them?”
Alpha Asher was all that kept me on my feet. His grip was rough, but I was too numb to tell if it was painful.
My eyes dragged over the room slowly, looking at the dozens of Vampires that fell to the floor. None were stirring and yet I could hear each and every breath they took. My eyes locked on Sean, looking much more ragged than what I remembered. His hair had grown and was now sticking up in unruly tufts, dirt and deep bruises stained his face. His shoulders hunched with exhaustion, but his face remained determined.
“We don’t have time for this.” I shook my head, my voice cracking as the weight of my emotions threatened to crush me. “We need to get Sean out; more could come at any minute.”
Carter and Wade leapt into action, thankfully not asking questions as they eyed the twenty-five unconscious Vampire’s that littered the floor. Smoke was still trickling into the back room, thick and suffocating as it sealed us in.
The sprinklers continued spewing water, and I wondered when they would finally run out. Pools of water mixed with the blood on the floor, turning the deep cherry wood an unsettling shade of pink. Water streamed down my face, mixing with the tears that fell from my eyes.
M******r, k****r, monster.
The words flashed through my head; my own inner voice filled with hatred. This was different than self-defense, different than anything I had planned for.
I assumed it would be my life I was giving up, my d***h in exchange for Alpha Asher’s life. I hadn’t asked, hadn’t thought that they could be talking about someone else. Someone innocent was going to d*e, and it was my fault.
Carter and Wade helped Sean stand, using their body weight to hold him upright. Alpha Asher’s eyes were wild as they scanned my face, and I wondered if he could tell I was crying.
“The back door, go out the back door.” Alpha Asher snarled, tearing his eyes away from my own.
