Offered to the Triplet Alphas

Chapter 112

Chapter-112. Changing winds

[Asher]

The winds were changing, and the timelines had shifted.

Xanthea's face rested against my chest. I gently tucked the free strands behind her ear and she snuggled against my touch.

This was probably the first time in her life she was at peace, not at war with herself. Just a glance at her was enough to see how exhausting her life had been so far.

I carefully inhaled slowly just in case my breaths might disturb her rest as I looked up at the stars, which glowed brighter, aligning into a swan constellation.

They were coming..

I held her tighter, burying my face in her neck.

They were coming for her.

At that moment, all I wanted was to take Xanthea back to the Infernal realm - to our penthouse, to our bedroom - where I could live a little longer in her warmth. Share moments of love where I could lose my heart in her heartbeats. Steal kisses that made my heart beat a little faster. Drown myself in her scent that helped me breathe a little better.

I wanted to talk to her for hours, ask her about all her favorites, and try to manipulate my way into becoming one of them.

Her favorite husband, perhaps.

I wanted to cook her favorite meals, take a relaxing bath with her, rest my head on her lap and fall asleep.

I just wanted to live a little life with her before my duties called for me.

As I held her tighter, my thoughts drifted, imagining a future where it was just us and no one else. But then, the voices beyond the graveyard stirred.

For once, I wished I could silence the Alpha in me and simply be hers, but maybe the gods had some other plans.

"The black mist is densely charged with demonic energy. It's too dangerous for mortals to get close to it. Even as celestial guards, it's nearly impossible for us to endure its pull. Our wings would be crushed if we tried to fly over it. That can only mean one thing-"
