Chapter 191 I Trust You

• Edward appeared in the palace with Asher in his arms, making the women in the drawing room to scream on seeing the sight. Aliyah was on her feet immediately as she rushed her husband, “What happened to him?” she asked, her voice composed despite the fact that she was breaking down inside and she signaled for the servants to get a blanket.
• “I met him like this in the human woods, quickly, summon Hephzibah, Irene is too far to hear us,” he commanded as he quickly the nearly unconscious Asher on the chaise longue. Aliyah did as told as called for Hephzibah, using the witch council calling code. Scarlet, Monica and Vanessa, Steven’s mate, circled Asher, each wanting to know what they could do to help. Aliyah was fighting back tears as she stared at her son, just yesterday, he had told her to trust him and have fate in him and just twenty-four hours later, he had to be rescued by his father. What could possibly have happened?
• They were still waiting for Hephzibah when the warriors in the woods arrived and soon after them, Anita and the rest showed up as well. They all went into a room to get into some clothes before approaching the King, Queen and Lunas. Anita went to check on Asher, he was unconscious and the black lines on his body made it look like someone had covered him in black paint. She glanced at her mother, silently asking what happened but Monica shook her head, she also couldn’t possibly tell what could have happened.
