Asherah hides behind the wall, turning back to her human form before climbing the wall and jumping into her room.
"whew" she sighs, removing an imaginary sweat from her forehead. "That was easy, " she says, grabbing her towel from its stand before wrapping it around her body.
"And where have you been, young lady?" A voice says, making her stay still in her spot.
Turning her around her eyes widens upon seeing Sarai sitting at the front of her dressing mirror.
"Nanny Sarai" she exclaims running to hug Sarai. Sarai smiles while receiving a warm hug from Asherah. She clears her throat. "You still didn't tell me where you went, young lady?" Sarai says.
Asherah releases Sarai from her hug "Well" she says scratching the back of her neck sheepishly "I went strolling around the pack in my wolf form and then bumped into Aiden". She tells Sarai all Aiden told her.
"To be sincere I feel bad Sarai, I'm not actually shocked Ophelia was the one who suggested this but nevertheless, I'm happy" she says with a shrug of shoulder. Sarai raises a brow at Asherah words.
"ash are you happy getting married to the vampire King "
"I'm not happy I'm getting married against my will but of course I'm happy knowing I'm going to leave this room and this pack in my human form. It's been my dream ever since you all left me. I don't even care about whomever I'm going to get married to but all I know is for once in my life I'm not going to be subjected to the scorn and hatred of people from this pack. Even if the people from whatever kingdom my husband is coming from don't love me I know that for the sake of the truce they are going to treat me with respect".
Asherah says with a dreamy look in her eyes.
Sarah chuckles "ok let me ask you this, what about if you find your mate what would you do" Sarai asks.
Asherah frowns "how does that even work. Lilly never told me anything regarding the mate pull or whatsoever".
"if you ever feel the mate pull your wolf would know. The scent, the sparks when you both touch each other and your wolf's reaction". Sarai says.
"What if you feel a shift in your heart?. I don't know" Asherah says not knowing how to explain what she felt earlier staring at those grey orbs.
Sarai hums and asks "When did you feel it?"
Asherah fidgets "Um.. Today while I was roaming around in my wolf form a carriage passed by. The only thing k saw was the eyes. The person had grey orbs. So I'm guessing it's a man right?" She asks.
Sarai nods her head in thought . Werewolves don't use carriages because they can travel in their wolf form. The only person who would use a carriage is... is this fate or is Ash mistaken.
"Come have a seat" Sarai says, patting the space beside her as she sits on the bed.
"No matter what happens Ash I want you to know that your father is doing this to favour you. It's a beautiful thing to get married only if the person you're getting married to is the person you love. If you ever need to run away I'll always help you do so without a trace"
Sarai says.
Asherah chuckles "Thank you Sarai but u think I'll go on with this marriage. I also have my personal reasons. I think my husband's influence can help with it. I know they won't marry me off to someone not influential for the peace truce" Asherah shrugs.
"Ok Ash. Whatever you say. I'd like you to know that your husband to be is not just influential but fearful. He is the King of Dothan king Lucien Vlad". Sarai says.
Asherah eyes widen with sparkles in it as she smiles broadly.
"The Vampire King? It's going to be fun" she says with a mischievous glint in her eyes.
Sarai chuckles "Are you ever thinking of anything rather than causing mischief?" Sarai asks, shaking her head.
"Don't blame me, blame Ophelia for that" Ash says with a shrug of her shoulders smiling.
A knock resounds on the door making the ladies look at each other. Ash grumbles walking close to the door bending down to pick up the paper.
