Fated to My Twin Sister's Alpha (Violet and Asher) novel Chapter 123

Chapter123

Any strong warrior would flinch under that gaze, but not my

mother. She met his gaze without hesitation. I had to give her

the credit.

“I am not manipulating you, King Asher. I am a mother. And if

anyone understands the weight of losing a child, it should be

you because you have a family and a child too. Put yourself in

my place and you’ll understand my choice. Am I really

challenging your authority?” Her voice softened, but her

resolve remained firm. “I won’t apologize for fighting for my

son.”‘

A sharp pain twisted inside me. If she had fought this hard for

us back then–if she had stood between us and the world when

we were children–would we still be standing here now,

drowning in the aftermath of blood and vengeance? I don’t

think so.

I wished she had shown even a fraction of this devotion and

love for us when we were younger. Maybe then none of this

would happen.

Asher let out a quiet, humorless chuckle, shaking his head. “He

tried to kill me. More than once. There is no world where I can

forgive that!”

It made me hurt to hear how much he hated my brother. But I

couldn’t blame him. He had his reasons.

“I understand your concern. But here’s the deal,” my mother

said. “I promise you that as long as you spare his life, he will

never ever come close to you and your family again. It’ll be like

he never existed. I will make sure he never leaves Nightshade

Pack. He’ll take my place and become the Alpha of my

members.”

A murmur swept through the gathered Alphas. I rounded my

eyes as well. It was a bold proposal. But if it could actually

work.We could punish Michael and keep him alive. This was a

win–win.

“Can you destroy the follower? Does it do any damage to your

pack?” I asked.

I seriously wanted to know the answer, but maybe my tone

was too skeptical that it sounded like I was questioning her

intention. She turned to me, her face all serious.

“I know you don’t trust me Violet. And you probably think I’m

evil and stupid to go against your husband’s order. But I am

willing to sacrifice anything for family, and I’d do the same for

you.” she said matter–of–factly.

I swallowed. At this moment, I actually bought her words.

“You can destroy the flower and you definitely should. But I

won’t strike a deal with you. Michael must be punished for

what he had done. The jury had spoken. I had spoken.” Asher

said icily. My heart sank.

“If Michael can’t live, then no destruction of the flower.” my

mother looked stubbornly back at Asher, “And you know very

well that not a single flower will be destroyed without my help.

If you want to eliminate that threat, let my son live.”

There’s a short silence after that. They glared at each other,

both unwilling to back down, the air thick with tension.

Everyone was holding their breaths.

“We’ll do it.” The words left my mouth before I realized. My

heart was pounding like crazy.

The moment I spoke, Asher’s entire body tensed. His head

snapped toward me, eyes widening in shock. For a split second,

he looked at me as if I had just betrayed him.

“You. agreed to this?” His voice was low, but I could hear the
