Fated to My Twin Sister's Alpha (Violet and Asher) novel Chapter 143

Chapter143

Lucas gave a respectful nod. “My King, if there is anything you

need, I will stand behind you.”

I shook my head. “No. You stand WITH me.” I stepped forward,

making sure my words were clear. “Every battle we fight, we

do it side by side. We protect our pack, our families, together.

Not as leader and soldier, but as brothers.”

The warriors nodded, and I could feel the shift in their energy.

They weren’t just acknowledging my words–they were

believing them.

“Don’t bow to me,” I continued. “You are the ones keeping this

pack safe. You are the reason others fear attacking us. The

reason our families sleep soundly at night. You are not beneath

1. me. You are warriors, and you deserve to be honored as such.”

Lucas met my gaze, something like pride flickering in his eyes. “I

think I speak for everyone when I say we appreciate that, my

King”

For the first time in a long while, I felt something settle within

1. me. Connection. Understanding. I wasn’t just their leader–I was

becoming part of them.

And despite everything, I couldn’t walk away from that.

Not now. Not ever.

Asher’s POV

I had just left the Seer’s chamber and ran into Matthew in the hallway. I thought he was just passing by. But then he blocked

my path.

“We need to talk.”

I turned to face him, already dreading this conversation. I hadn’t spoken to him since I got back, and honestly, I wasn’t sure how to. He had been through hell, especially after learning that Kylie was supposed to be his mate. I could see the weight of that revelation in the dark circles under his eyes, the stiffness in

his shoulders.

“Yeah. I guess we do.” I exhaled. “Should have done it sooner.”

I was lying. I had put this off on purpose. It wasn’t that I held

anything against him. I just couldn’t look at him without

remembering everything that had happened.

Chapter143

I killed his parent. He had every right to hate me, or even plot a revenge. If I were in his place, I would definitely do something. But he hadn’t. I didn’t understand why though. The weight of everything in the past sat heavy between us.

“I get it. You’ve had a lot going.on,” Matthew said, voice calm. “But we don’t have time to dance around this anymore.”

That sent a prickle of unease down my spine. “Alright. My office.”

As we walked, I stole glances at him. He wasn’t the same person I’d left behind. The Matthew I grew up with had been carefree, always chasing the next thrill. The guy walking beside me now moved with purpose, his posture rigid, his wolf’s presence

darker, more controlled.

He had changed–physically, mentally, in ways I wasn’t sure I fully understood yet.

We stepped inside my office, and I leaned against my desk. “This isn’t more bad news, is it?”

He didn’t smile. “Depends on how you look at it. But I can tell

you right now, you’re not going to like it.”

My hands clenched. “Just spit it out.”

Chapter143

“The council and Alpha Xavier have been rallying the other

alphas against you,” he said, watching my reaction. “They have enough backing to launch a coup.”

A muscle in my jaw twitched. I knew the council was up to something. I just didn’t expect them to have the audacity to go

against me. Those old bastards had a death with.

“How long has this been happening?” my voice cold.

“Long enough. They want me to take your place.”
