Chapter99
I turned, suddenly aware of the dread that twisted in my gut.
“And Asher?” My voice was barely a whisper, even as I felt hope
flicker within me.
Brian’s face fell, his tone heavy.
“They didn’t find him,” he said, his words like a dagger to my
heart. “They only found Kylie.”
Kylie.
I didn’t need to hear another word. My blood boiled. I stormed
out of the dungeon before Brian could stop me.
As soon as I saw Kylie, the woman who had betrayed us, I
couldn’t hold back. I jumped at her and slapped her hard across
the face!
Once, twice–each strike a release for the frustration and anger
that had been building inside me since the moment I’d learned
Asher was missing.
These people.They took everything that mattered to me!

Where were they still alive and breathing?
They should burn in hell!
Kylie gasped, her eyes wide with shock and horror. Many
others rushed over to stop me. But I didn’t give a damn.
“What did you do to him?” I spat, my voice trembling with fury.
“Where is Asher? Where is my husband?!!!”
Kylie crumpled, hands pressed to her cheek, tears gathering in
her eyes. She looked so pathetic, so helpless in that moment, but
I didn’t trust her. This was such an old trick. She could dry her
eyes out and I still wouldn’t believe she was innocent.
“I didn’t do anything!” she cried, her voice breaking. “Isaac–Isaac
was the one who planned it all. He didn’t tell me anything,
Violet, I swear. I had no idea what he was going to do!”
I didn’t believe her. This lying bitch.
“You expect me to believe you? After how you played all of us
like fucking fools?” I hissed. “Do you really think I’m that naive?
You would never let Isaac manipulate you! You know things
and you are going to tell me right now before I kill you!”
“I didn’t know. I swear! Isaac doesn’t trust anyone else, not even

I wanted to slap her again. But Jayden stepped forward and
seized my wrist.
“Violet, please… calm down. We don’t need to resort to violence
right now!‘
I shook him off roughly, my chest heaving with the weight of
my frustration.
“Calm down?” I snapped, my eyes wild with grief. “How can I
calm down when I don’t know where my mate is? She’s lying
and you know it. Are you taking her side right now?!”
“I’m not taking side. Just telling you the truth. I know it’s hard,
but we’ve searched. We’ve done everything we can. There’s
nothing left to find. Asher’s.not to be found.”
The truth.
They all claimed to have the truth.
But they knew nothing!
I couldn’t breathe. The walls were closing in. They wanted me
to accept Asher’s death, to accept defeat. But I couldn’t.
Chapter99
“How can I calm down when everyone keeps telling me to let
go? Let go of Asher? My mate? My husband? No, Jayden. I won’t
stop until I have answers!”
“Violet”
“He’s still out there. He has to be.”
I didn’t know where the strength came from, but suddenly, I
was running. I had to get the hell out of here. Away from those
traitors. Those shameless cowards.
I ended up in the garden, feeling the weight of the world
pressing down on me.
The stars above, the gentle breeze–it all felt so distant, so
meaningless right now.
Where was Asher?
Why couldn’t anyone help me?
Why was I being left alone with nothing but my pain?
Tears sprang to my eyes, but I didn’t let them fall. I stood there,
silent and broken, my heart aching with the loss of the man I
