Chapter 32 A Plan For All Things

• Asher's POV
• I leaned against the cold stone railing of my balcony, staring out into the night, and trying to silence the thoughts that plagued me. I had tried to sleep, but every time I closed my eyes, all I could see was Willow, her smile, her laughter, and the way she looked at me as if I was the only person in the room. But now, the fear that she was moving on without me gnawed at my insides like a relentless beast.
• I ran a hand through my hair, feeling the weight of my worries. I needed to know what was happening with her, but the last thing I wanted was to disrupt the fragile peace we had managed to carve out in our lives. As I was lost in thought, I caught sight of a familiar figure stepping onto the balcony beside me.
