The Alpha Who Saved Me

Chapter 36

Asher

Lying here and listening to everything going on around me gives me hope. I have to say, though, I thought that us be- ing able to break this spell might have been the case after they healed me of the carvings. Let me tell you, that was a huge relief, once the pain from those cuts were gone. I was able to get a good night's sleep and didn't wake up until mom and dad showed up. Then came the Beta trio and there was no going back to sleep with Aunt Cici in the room, but then I heard her voice, and sleep was far from my mind at that point.

Emery has always had my heart, even as little kids, I al- ways looked out for her. I knew her and Decker were close be- cause of them being so close in age but she always made sure to include me and Holden in things as well. Her smile always lit up the room whenever she saw any of us walk in. I knew one day I would make her mine, and I was ready to forgo my mate, if need be, if only she was willing to give me a chance. I never thought that I would be sharing her with both my brothers, but hey, as long as I get to have her, I'm fine with it. I've shared with my brothers my whole life, why not share a

mate.

Yesterday, when her and the witch were inside and Emery was talking with me, I found it so cute how she kept concen- trating so she could push her thoughts to me. I didn't have it in me to tell her that I could hear her when she speaks. I guess the witch hadn't realized it either. The only reason that the witch had to bring her in was so she could hear me.

Emery comes straight over to me and kisses me on the mouth and all I want to do is reach out and grab her and pull her to me, never to let go. I can scent Holden on her, so I know they were intimate this morning and now I'm jealous. Hopeful- ly, I can lock her away with me for a whole day once I get out of here, and love on her the whole time.

I'm so lost in my thoughts that I hadn't realized that the witch has shown up and they are now discussing setting me free. I hear the witch say something about remarking me and making me bleed, but then Emery is all upset about having to be intimate with me. I concentrate on what's being said be- cause I have to be misunderstanding it. There is no reason for my mate to not want to be intimate with me.

"You're telling me that I have to have sex with my mate while we mark him, and while he's still in this comatose state?" Her voice is loud and clear but it's as I thought, she's not up- set about being intimate with me, but with having sex with me while I'm not awake and alert.

"Baby, I'm here, and it's okay...fuck me all you want!" I yell inside my head a few times, trying so hard to make her hear. She doesn't, but I do draw the attention of my big brother.

I can feel Holden's stare on me. Don't ask how I know this but it's just an overwhelming feeling that I have. I then feel his hand slowly come to rest on my arm. Did he hear me, or did the Seer in him hear me? I go and repeat what I was saying only this time, I direct it at him, and tell him to tell our mate that she has my consent.

After a few times of repeating myself, I hear the smile in his voice when he addresses our mate, "Hey, Em," he calls out without taking his hand off me, "I'm pretty sure that you have
