“Isn’t it enough that he took my life away from me, now I can’t even be free around here,” I said, angrily making my way back into my room.
A crazy message popped into my mind, and I turned back to them with a sly grin. “Maybe you could help me pass a message back to him, tell him I said, “FUCK YOU” I said, showcasing my middle fingers.
The crack in their demeanor didn’t go unnoticed even though they immediately transitioned back to their serious nature. They sure didn’t think they would ever find someone who could say such words to their ‘Almighty King‘

“I’m glad you have finally decided to be truthful to yourself” His gaze remained heavy on me like he was picturing me in the bikini all over.
I shook my head at his cluelessness. And deep down, I knew that I was done trying to prove my innocence to him.
His phone buzzed, diverting his attention from me. I had no idea what he was up to and I didn’t care to ask, all that bothered me was the reason he was staring down at me so intensely.

Asher’s expression remained serious, his eyes boring into mine. “We’re mates, a couple, it’s expected that we attend such meetings as one.
