Alethea (Zoe)

Life has a cruel sense of humor sometimes. I feel trapped, unable to get through each day without Alpha Asher's emotions invading my mind.

It’s infuriating, more so because he’s an Alpha. His presence looms over me like a shadow I can’t escape, no matter how hard I try.

What was I thinking, rushing to warn Asher during battle? The thought alone is enough to make me cringe.

Yet, I know I need to warn him about Xavier’s plans. Still, the last thing I want is to be near him, to feel the pull of the mate bond tugging at me.

Asher’s misunderstanding about Declan is almost laughable....
