Chapter 35
Asher’s POV
do you mean Gemini is missing? 1 lashed out in fury.
“she was in her room just some minutes a
ago, the guards confirmed that, but no one knows how she got away”
“Fuck!” I yelled, slamming my phone against the wall
Without thinking twice, I picked up my robe and stormed towards the door, my head still throbbing. At that point, I couldn’t care less about the fact that I was still on down there. All I wanted to do was to get to Gemini.
Becca sped to the door with her Lycan speed, stopping me before I step out. “Where do you think you are going. Asher? You can’t just leave me Tanging like that, it’s not fair” She whined.
Enough of bring the lenient ex, my wolf snapped to the front of my mind, taking total control. I wrapped my hands around her neck, a death- threatening growl escaping my lips. “If anything happens to Gemini, consider yourself dead,”
The terror in her eyes was enough to make me know that she understood my threat. I set her down carelessly and stormed out of my room, almost walking into Alan in the hallways.
“Your majesty He called, taking in my dishevelled look.
“Send our the troupes now! She wouldn’t have gone too far.”
The hallways were a lilur as I stormeil through them. My head pounded with every step, and my body was still betraying me, but I couldn’t stop. Not now Gemini was out there, and I had no idea where. The thought alone was enough to drown out the burning sensation coursing through me.
Alin kept up with my pace, his expression a mix of concern and urgency. “Your Majesty, you’re not well. You need to-
I said to send out the troops, Alan,” I snapped, my voice harsher this time. “Every inch of this territory needs to be searched. Now,”
Alan hesitated for a second before nodding, “Yes, Your Majesty,” he replied, pulling out his communicator to relay the orders.
As he spoke to the guards, I gripped the nearest pillar, steadying myself as the room spun around me. My body was on fire, the effects of the drug and the Viagra mixing into something that made my pulse race and my vision blur.
Alan finished his commands and turned back to me, his sharp eyes scanning my face. “Your Majesty, you’re not in any condition to lead this search. Please, take a moment to

Alan browned but didn’t argue further. Instead, he gestured to a maid standing nearby. “You, ferch a glass of chilled water. Quickly.”

He hesitated, his brow furrowing
“But what?” i demanded, my patience fraying.
“Thiere was a faint scent of wollshane near her dour,” he admitted reluctantly –
A cold fury settled over me. Wolfbane. Someone had orchestrated this. Someone had taken her from under my nose. I slammed my hands against the pillar, my knuckles suffering from the unwise act.
The maid returned with the glass of water, her hands trembling as she held it out to me. I took it without a word, downing at in one go h did little to ease the suffocating Tension, but I shoved the discomfort aside.
“10 kill whoever did thas,” I muturred, more in myself than anyone else. My wolf growded in agreement, the raw instinct to protect our muste surging
Alan stepped closer, his expression serious. “Your Majesty, we’ll had her. You take care of yourself and i will make sure things are sorted out there.

thing never happens
I wanted to insist, I wanted to be out there to see everything through, cause I wasn’t sure I would be able to handle the tension of sitting back and waiting for their feedback. But the pounding in my head and the fire in my veins reminded me that I wasn’t at my best.
“Fine,” I bit out reluctantly. “But keep me updated every step of the way. If there’s even a whisper of her location. I want to know immediately”
Alan nodded. “Understood, Your Majesty.”

He turned to leave, but I stopped him with a hand on his shoulder. “Alan,” I said, my voice lower now. “Don’t come back until
Alan nodded and stepped out.

I let out a heavy sigh as I watched his retreating figure. This can’t be happening to me now, I’ve sacrificed a whole lot for this, I can’t let all my hard work just go to a waste.
My mind drifted to what Alari had said earlier, Wolfsbane. Who could have tried to. My question got answered even before I could even finish thinking of it in my head.
I hurried back to my room immediately, in search of Becca who happened to have been gone at the time I returned there
“Where did she go?” I barked at the guards who stood by my room.
“Looking for me, your majesty?” Becca said softly from within the room, clad in a towel, her body dripping
I sped towards her, smashing her into the wall. “Where is Geminit” I snarled,
