We meet again.

Asher.

My legs changed positions at the command tone of my mate, although l will never dare say that out loud, l bet he doesn't feel the same, it will be unrealistic to think that a mere mate bond as eerie and slurred like an Omega like me will enkindle and spark off a love simulation between us, l can only wish, at least he is nice enough to save my life although his tone and wordplay are rather offensive.

It doesn't hurt deeply like Father's words and violent satisfaction, now I wonder if he came to see me to say all these, what am l saying he is the Head of the Pack, he can say anything he wants and of course, this is his house, he can go anywhere.

I lunge carefully out of his presence, it feels like a vault in my leg, even though my clothes have been thrown away l still need to find them, l will be a dead mouse if I don't get my hands on those pills, Alpha Alexander precious gift, who knows what that pass can get me, it might help me at my lowest, it might save my life in urgent cases, l might run there if there is no hope for me, especially if one day Alpha Theodore doesn't want to see me anymore or doesn't want me to work for him either.

Especially if words get out from my father that I'm an Omega, or he knows that I'm his fated mate, he will definitely kill me and hang my head at the entrance of the Pack as an example to all liars.

My eyes raised in the direction of the incoming footsteps as l took another step, and my heart oscillated to the built physique that walked toward glaring at me heavenly, l couldn't help the smile that appeared on my lips, l was just thinking about him, wait! What is he doing here? Was he on his way to the Pack when l met him earlier? What relationship does he have with the Alpha?

Does this mean he is going to tell Alpha Theodore about my family situation? What is he doing here? He tried saving my already dead mother and l didn't get to pay him yet he gave me a tangible thing that l have lost.

He didn't see much but I'm sure he gasped at everything my Father did, he told me to find him anytime l needed help here he is, appearing again in front of me, l couldn't take my eyes off him, they seem close that they are not sparing any glance at each other and he didn't bow like any regular wolf to greet the Governor in full glory.

"I heard there was someone sick here so l came to see for myself, " His caterwauling voice grumbled which had me gazing at the ground shyly.

Unlike Alpha Theodore his sleet chocolate brown hair with his emerald green eyes just like earlier that l failed to notice, his shoulders were less border than Alpha Theodore's own, he dresses more officially than Alpha Theodore, maybe because I met them on different occasions and locations.

My eyes couldn't help but find their way back to Alpha Theodore's direction as the one that warned me about being a snake earlier reminded him of his schedule but he didn't bother about it. Did he come here even though someone was waiting for him? Or am l getting too imaginative?

"Are you alright? I didn't expect to see you so soon again, " Alpha Alexander's wauling voice came directly into my heart and I nodded in agreement, l tried hard not to show the excitement that flushed my both ears, l could feel them turning red, apart from mother no one has asked me if I'm alright or not.

I took a step backwards respectfully as Alpha Theodore made his way out of the scene without sparing a glance back at us, l gripped my hands nervously and swallowed my dry throat, having my tongue remind me of how bitter my mouth tasted.

"Are you alright? " Alpha Alexander asked again, placing his palm on my forehead, which had me fidgeting from his touch.

"Did you run away from home? What are you doing here? Did you do your mother's ritual rites? " He inquired with a familiar tone which had me locking my eyes with his.

"Did you forget how to talk?"

"I'm fine, Alpha."

"You were screaming my name as 'Doctor, why are you suddenly so polite? Did Theodore say something to you? And how did you get here? The last l saw you had an injury in your head. Now you can barely stand on both feet, do you have something against your body?"

"Alpha?"

"Come… Come take a seat and answer my question accordingly, "He mumbled and dragged me away holding my wrist which had my eyes socket widened, bewildered and speechless, l went ahead with him as he got me back to the room that I thought it was a hospital when l first open my eyes.

"I'm listening to you, you can start by telling me your name since we met again."

"Asher is my name Alpha."

"Drop the politeness and talk to me, what did Theodore offer you?"

"He didn't, l made him an offer like you guessed l ran away from home, l don't have a reason to stay there anymore, my Father will kill me like he killed my mother."

"So you ran away here? To the Night Walker Packhouse?"

"I met Alpha Theodore in the East side of the region woods when l was trying to run away, l don't know how but l happened to get shot by his arrow, l didn't know he was the Governor until the man beside him addressed him as the Governor."

"So you asked him to save you?"

"I can work for him in return, I'm homeless after all, l rather work here than live with my father."

"You don't know what you have gotten yourself into, do you? Asking someone like Theodore to save you are you by any chance tired of your freedom or the gift l gave you was meaningless that you didn't consider asking for my help? You already owe me one beautiful Asher and l know l won't mind doing more for you."

"I'm sorry, Alpha, l didn't think much."

"You are very much afraid of your Father don't you think if he finds out you work in the Pack your life will definitely be in danger? You Know your Kind is interdicted and barred? I'm sure you didn't tell Theodore the truth, that is why you are still standing here alive and free."

"Alpha? What do you mean?"
