Defy The Alpha(s) novel Chapter 688

Chapter 688: Who Likes Watching?

Violet Purple and her men returned to their quarters, and no sooner had the door closed behind them than Asher said, "Can we talk? All of us?"

At once an awkward tension settled. Whatever joke Roman had been telling Alaric died off immediately. They shared a look, sensing that whenever Asher used that business tone of his, something was up—and deep down, they already knew what it was.

Violet straightened. "Sure, go on."

Asher looked at his brothers one after the other, then said, "I appreciate you guys being considerate of me, but I didn’t ask for that."

"Oh boy," Roman mouthed. Just what they thought.

"Just because my bond with Violet hasn’t formed yet doesn’t mean you have to pity me. I’m uncomfortable with it. Moreover, it’s totally unfair of me to ask the three of you to go celibate when the bond pushes you to do otherwise. I wouldn’t keep my hands off my purple queen if I had the chance." Asher finished with a smoldering gaze aimed Violet’s way.

She blushed instantly.

Griffin said, "I apologize. It wasn’t our call to make without consulting you, but you wouldn’t have agreed."

"Exactly," Asher said pointedly.

"Don’t blame them, Asher," Violet told him gently. "We only wanted to be considerate."

"And how’s that turning out? Great, right?" he said sarcastically, hinting at Roman losing control earlier.

Violet couldn’t form a word because he was right. Being in the same room and unable to touch any of them had been painful torture. For all of them.

"Moreover..." Asher’s eyes darkened, letting his wolf peek through as he began to walk toward her with a predator’s grace.

Violet’s heart picked up speed. She stepped back slowly, as though moving any faster would set him off. Yet with every inch she tried to reclaim, Asher took two, closing the distance effortlessly.

Then her back hit the wall, and before she could breathe, he closed the remaining space. His body pressed flush against hers, caging her in completely.

Asher lifted a lock of her hair and let it slide slowly through his fingers. Leaning in, he breathed in her scent. The low, guttural groan that escaped him was pure man and pure animal.

"...who said I don’t like watching?" he finished, the smile that curved his lips equal parts thrilling and menacing.

Violet’s breath hitched when she felt his hand slip beneath her gown, his fingers slowly caressing the inside of her thigh.

"You don’t know how damn attractive you look when you’re pinned beneath them," he murmured, "or the way your sun-kissed eyes glow when they hit the right spot... the way your lips part just perfectly."

Violet didn’t know which was worse—the vivid images he painted in her mind, or the way he kept her suspended on the edge, deliberately avoiding the place she knew those fingers were headed.

"Or..." he whispered, "the way you gasp when I do just this..."

He tugged her panties aside and slipped a finger into her.

And she did gasp.
