Chapter 618: Union With A Fae

"I’m sorry," Asher said bluntly, "but I’m not a fan of anyone getting into my head without my permission, especially with magic I don’t understand."

"You’re right to be wary," Queen Seraphira nodded her head. "Caution has kept many alive. However, I am a healer, and I don’t just see wounds of the body, I sense the ones buried deeper too. And I worry that the darkness you carry might one day harm my daughter."

She admitted, "I once believed I could mend broken men, and it cost me dearly. I won’t let my daughter make the same mistake."

Asher’s jaw clenched, and Violet’s heart skipped a beat. She knew that look in his eyes — the one that said no one, not even the gods, would stop him from getting what he wanted.

Violet expected Asher to start raining threats, but to everyone’s surprise, he bowed his head, not out of submission, but sincerity.

"I love your daughter with everything I am," Asher said, his voice raw. "I would never hurt her. If anything, I’d lay my life down for her. And if you want me to prove it, I’ll do it without hesitation."

There was no mistaking the conviction in his tone. It rippled through the throne room, and everyone present felt the truth of his words deep in their bones.

For a heartbeat, no one moved. All eyes were on Queen Seraphira, every breath held in anticipation. The final decision rested with her.

Then the queen lifted her head proudly. "Then that makes you my son. May the Goddess favor your bond as well, if she wills it."

Violet exhaled a breath she hadn’t realized she was holding. Thank the heavens. It would have been a nightmare having to reject her mother just because she couldn’t accept Asher.
