MERRICK
Stunningly beautiful she was. Each day was getting harder to keep away from her. I reminded Asher of my promise last night. This bit was through the mind link that he and I shared and I was sure that Zaya hadn’t heard.
“I’m staying away as much as I can to give you time to deal with this s**t, Asher. You’re going to have to let it go.” He knew that I wasn’t going to wait for him to calm down or even heal, which might take forever.
Avalon was my mate as much as she was his. It was my natural instinct to want to be with her in every way possible, but this bit was hard, seeing as he was still hurting from what she did to him in our past life.
And as the good brother that I was, I didn’t want him to feel like I didn’t care about him or that I was rubbing my relationship with her
