MERRICK
Asher was an asshole and that was a fact. I loved him to death, but he could be aggravating most of the time. He had one job, or maybe two, and that was to keep Avalon safe, but he just had to be an asshole about the whole situation. His second job was to take it easy on her.
She may have been mated before, and I believed that she was an exceptionally smart woman, but she lacked experience in a lot of things, life included. And maybe it was my fault for pairing them together, but it had to be done. It was the only way that I could ensure her safety while I handled matters regarding her ex-mate, Sebastian.
On the day that my men informed me about her heading over to the boutique and that she was being harassed, Sebastian was there. I was so relieved when I dragged Asher with me
