chapter 7

*The Next day*
All through the night Asher wasn't able to sleep. He was really so scared of what he had done as he felt so guilty towards his actions. He regretted his actions, and now it's really too late. Furthermore, he can't bring back Addison's dead body since he had already thrown her away in the stream.
Asher got informed that his mother was coming to visit him by Leo who just walked to his room with a worried gaze.
"You have to get up Asher, your mother is on her way to meet you". Leo had Shrugged at him as he stood up from the bed immediately and got himself dressed up. He knew that his mother would be pretty mad to see him looking like this which was the reason why he needed to dress up and not quite long after his mother was here. Currently knocking on his door right now as he went to open it.
"Have you really been sleeping?" Ellie shrugged at his son who wasn't saying any words to him. "I can see that but do you really realize that the time is going to 11am?
"Shhh shit Mother I didn't really !!
"That isn't the reason why I came to meet you here so keep your mouth shut". She bellowed at him immediately as he kept his mouth muttered just as she had said.
"Where's Addison, your mate?" I went to the prison where she was kept yesterday evening, but now she isn't there, where have you kept her?"
Asher was Silent for a while as his mother questions him about her. "I'm sorry Mother, but I don't know where she is, I thought she might be there this morning?"
Asher and his mother went there but couldn't see her. They ask other slave like her who was lock up whether they ?nd trace of her, but they all said no.
It's been long they've been looking for Addison around the pack territory, but she wasn't yet to be seen. Ellie ?nally came to conclusions that she might have run away. And of course Asher agreed with his mother also to avoid her for looking for the dead Addison.
Asher was very happy to learn that his mother wasn't talking about Addison anymore. He was really grateful for how she had forgotten all about her and didn't bring her Matter up again until he had a call from his Mother again. That was when everything shattered and his fears increased more.
"Baby, your mother requested to see you! I think Addison's body was found". Naomi, his ?anc�� rasped in at him, bringing him back to reality as he walked to his mother's house only to see Addison's body with a white clothes wrapped around her.
He gasped in shock on seeing her body. Asher's mother could be seen crying at the moment as she glared at her son. "Addison's body was found in the stream by a ?sherman who was ?shing at that particular time and had decided to take her to us ".
Ellie Uttered with a running tears as Naomi exclaimed in happiness. At least Addison has been gotten rid off and nothing is stopping their relationship. Since Addison is dead now, Asher would only have eyes for her. She was very happy to hear the unpleasant news.
"What are you going to do now son, you Knew Addison was your mate ". I don't know!! I'm sure the moon goddess will choose another mate for me. He Said hysterically since he knew that, that can't be true. Such a thing can never happen.
"What if I turned out to be your mate someday, let's keep watching Asher ". Naomi said.
"Mother please, you need to stop thinking about that dead girl, Addison was drowned in the water and that's nobody's fault." Maybe she was just trying to escape at that particular moment, please stop crying for her". Asher uttered as he doesn't want to see his mother sad anymore.
"You will take her to your room Asher, I believe that she will wake up one day! She isn't dead! She just can't be dead in Such a sudden way". Ellie Uttered and walked away.

Scott couldn't help but wonder why "Derek" , his boss, suddenly requested to know Selina True identity. Could it be that he suddenly feels attracted to her? He thought.
"What about those men I requested to kill Sterling for me, have they successfully killed him?" Derek questions Scott on their way to the company.
Scott remembers that he hadn't given Derek the answers which he wanted considering "sterling" who had taken loan from them and had refused to pay. He quickly calls those men which he had sent to kill "sterling" and hears from them.
"We've Killed him sir! We didn't leave any trace of him! We were certain that he was dead before we left him in his house, and we chased after his daughter who witnessed us killing his father "What's her
daughter named?"
Derek took the call from Scott immediately. "Selina" Selina was her name.
He ended the call immediately as a smile crept through his lips. He couldn't believe it. Likewise, he couldn't believe that sterling had a daughter all along because he could remember seeing her with him several times when he usually came to work and had thought that Selina was his sister not knowing that she was his daughter. That explains why they look alike.
"Reverse the car, Carry me back to the place where we've seen that girl "Selina"
"But boss, may I know why?" Scott asks, wanting to know the reason behind his sudden actions.
"That's because Selina was a sterling only Daughter and I need to claim her as the collateral of the loan which he took from me". He spoke with more interest as Scott obeyed him by reversing the car immediately.
