Vika's POV
"Hmm? What do you mean?" Asher scratched his head.
It looked like he didn’t know what I was talking about. Devi had lied. What a surprise… Not.
Ugh, I should have known Devi was telling lies. How could I have let myself fall for that? How stupid was I? I let Devi get in my head.
"I'm sorry for asking that," I said. I rushed to Asher and looped my arms around his neck.
"What's up? Why did you say that?" Asher asked, hugging me back, looking confused still.
"Princess Devi… I heard her bragging to Shian that you caressed her neck and kissed her. I know. I shouldn't have believed her. I shouldn't have listened," I said in a rush.
"What?" Asher asked, pulling back slightly.
"She said all this stuff about true love overcoming the mate bond," I babbled. "I mean… I didn't know what to think because it was not like she was saying it to me to be mean. She was telling Shian."
"Vika, Vika," Asher purred, smoothing my hair with his hands.
