The Heartless Alpha's Beloved Luna Novel

Chapter 292 Avery's POV The chaos eventually drew to a close. But with the way my heart was pounding, blood rushing in my ears, I hardly noticed at all. I paced my tent, wringing my hands as the camp went quiet. My mind raced. - Had Gideon come for me after all? That letter he sent was it a decoy? A distraction to keep Asher from acting before I was rescued? Or was it something else? I hardly dared to hope that help had come, but my heart wandered anyway. I kept looking at the door, imagining that Gideon or someone, anyone-might come walking through that tent flap.

That the wolf shadow standing sentry would eventually be met with a violent and brutal end and that my rescuer would come for But that never happened. Eventually, as the camp stopped echoing with the sounds of battle and the alarm stopped blaring, I began to lose hope. Nothing happened for a long time. Eventually, I saw a figure approaching through the canvas. I shot to my feet, but when the flap opened, it was Asher who stepped in. His face was pale and grim. "Come with me," he said coldly. I twisted the ring on my finger. "Why?".

"Just come." I knew I had no choice but to obey, so I followed him out of the tent. The camp was the same as before, although it was quieter now. Heads turned as I passed. I smelled blood in the air, and the lingering scent of someone familiar, My heart stopped in my chest. Gideon? I surreptitiously slipped my ring off and tried to reach out for the mindink we shared, but I sensed nothing. Strange. If his scent was here, then I should have been able to communicate with him. This was bad. 1/3 IT WIL Chapter 202 +25 Bonus The moment Asher opened his tent flap, I rushed inside.

I felt my knees nearly buckle beneath me, but somehow, I managed to stay upright. It was Gideon. Asher had him tied to a chair in the center of his tent, bound by chains made of silver. The same ones that kept the slaves from shifting. His head was lolling forward onto his chest, and he didn't stir as approached. He came for me. And now he was Asher's latest prisoner. "Recognize him?" Asher asked. He walked over and grabbed Gideon's hair, lifting his head. Gideon groaned, and a large, angry purple bruise on his temple shone in the dim light. I didn't respond. I couldn't.

I could hardly even breathe. Asher released Gideon, letting his head fall back down toward his chest. "Look," he said, walking over to a nearby table where various tools were laid out, "I don't know what you two have been up to, whether you've been colluding or not, but it all stops now." He picked up a pair of pliers and held them up, inspecting them in the light. When he looked at me, his eye was blazing with fury, just like the last time I'd angered him.

But his voice was low and controlled as he said, "I don't take kindly to traitors in my midst." Strangely, the way those words came out as a whisper was even more terrifying than if he had been yelling. My throat bobbed as I watched Asher slowly walk over to Gideon. He lifted the pliers and reached for Gideon's hand, No, no, no, "Here's how it's going to be," Asher snarled "You abort the baby right now and declare your love to me. Or your boyfriend will suffer. And I will ensure he continues to suffer, day in and day out, until nothing is left but a sack of quivering flesh.

Then, you will have no choice but to submit yourself to me anyway. So make your decision, Avery. Will you condemn your lover to die, or will you selflessly spare him?" 2/3 Editorial Board Editorial Board Our editorial team works behind the scenes to refine each chapter, maintain consistency, and deliver the best reading experience.
