Her Freezing Heart novel Chapter 19

Before we could go any further, Asher came out of his house fuming with his parents’ right behind him. Caleb and Carter pushed me behind them and growled at him in warning. I quickly wiped my face of the wetness with the back of my hand. Asher didn’t like that at all. He growled back more viciously. I can see Caleb and Carter struggling to not bow their head to him. He is third in command after all.

“GET OUT OF MY WAY.” Asher shouted.

He seemed to be on the verge of shifting.

“HAVE YOU NOT DONE ENOUGH DAMAGE THAT YOU WANT TO HURT HER MORE?” Caleb retorted back blocking me out of Asher’s view.

I don’t know what happened next but within a second I heard the noise of clothes tearing and then Caleb and Carter were on the ground with claw marks on their chest. They curled on the ground, groaning from the pain with blood oozing out of their wounds on their chest. I looked up to find a very angry and snarling Asher in his wolf form. What the hell is he thinking hurting his own pack members? I ignored him and sat on my haunches to check the twins. Asher growled at… I don’t know who but I didn’t pay any attention to him. The gashes were too deep. The twins were losing too much blood. Why hasn’t their healing process kicked in? I heard another vicious growl from Asher and looked up at him in disgust and anger. Ryder was right. He is a good for nothing piece of shit. How could he do this to them?

“How dare you?” I asked Asher standing up and moving in front of the twins in case he decides to attack again. “HOW COULD YOU DO THIS TO YOUR OWN PACK MEMBERS?”

His reply… well he just snarled and lunged at me but before he could reach me a golden brown wolf tackled him to the ground and dug his teeth in his throat a little in warning. Asher still tried to buck Leo off of him but whimpered and showed his neck in submission when Leo dug his claw in his stomach a little. My heart was beating so fast that it felt like it will explode in my chest.

‘Shift’ I heard Leo’s voice in the mind link.

Asher shifted under him and laid there still with Leo’s wolf on top of him. He had blood on his neck and stomach. Stanley threw Asher and Leo a pair of shorts each, all the while glaring at Asher after Leo moved away a little from Asher a little and shifted. I didn’t want this to happen. Shit! I looked around to find Mathew and Ryan looking at the scene in horror. When did they come out? Asher silently wore his shorts and sat down on the ground in a kneeling position with his head down.

“What’s going on over here?” Leo asked.

The twins whimpered from behind me. I turned around to check them. They weren’t healing fast enough.

“Leo they are hurt.” I said turning my head towards him. “They aren’t healing fast.”

Leo came beside me and checked the twins. He grimaced. Is it that serious?
