    Chapter 42 Asher


    embarrassing me. I definitely did not say that, I am sure of it…


    “As close as He winked at his daughter, evidently teasing, making me want to punch the old man


    right on his b**dy nose. Trying to stir s**t. I simply said she looked tired and should try getting some


    sleep. Was that me being insulting? I thought it was me being considerate. Evidently, I misread that.


    Ah well. what is done, is done,


    “Right, Beta Donovan, follow me, I will sort you a room. I assume it is just for the night?” I said,


    deciding to change the topic of conversation, and escape the pair of them as quickly as I could.


    “Considering the service here. I would think so.” He says with a wry chuckle. “Definitely not five


    stars, is it?” Clearly, this guy thought himself quite the joker. Unlucky for him. I didn’t have much of a


    sense of humor left anymore, so I wasn’t going to find him funny, no matter how many jokes he may


    try and c**k.


    “Fine.” I said, moving along the corridor, grabbing some bedding from theundry cupboard as I


    went. The sooner I got him settled in his room, I could get myself to bed too. Then, tomorrow, Eden


    could deal with her new guests. I would have little to do with them, the way I preferred. I do not like


    new people. Well… in truth, I did not like people in general anymore…


    “literally came to make sure she got here safely. I have let her downtely in that regard. Don’t


    judge her for that.” he says quietly as he walks behind me, as if he suddenly decided he needed to


    exin his presence. Making me wonder exactly what had been going on in their pack… This


    sudden need to take the position ande here… Arriving in the middle of the night… and now the


    words of her father… all made me question if there was more to this young she-wolf than we


    realized.


    I had asked Caleb and Eden to be careful when they had interviewed her, so we knew who exactly


    we were allowing into our pack, but this girl seemed to be holding secrets, and I did not like that.


    Not one little bit.


    “Should I be concerned?” I asked him, without even turning back to look at him. C0pyright ? 2024 N?v)(elDrama.Org.


    “Of my daughter?” he questioned. “No. She is no risk to you, nor your pack. It is me that needs to


    be concerned. I think.” He said as I turned to unlock the door of the room I was giving him for the


    might and his words only confused me further. Why would he be concerned?


    Was his daughter in some sort of trouble? Because as much as he may say we are not at risk from


    her. surely if she was in some sort of trouble, or if she was on the run, then could that not potentially


    bring trouble to our door? Because that was a risk we did not want to be taking…
