Alpha Asher Novel [by Jane Doe] Chapter 182

“Oh, Lola.” Ember sang, “Why don’t you come out before I start losing my patience? Wouldn’t you rather walk out with dignity than have Tessa here use her vines to drag you out by your ankles? We’ll even let your little friends go…so long as you don’t put up a fight.”

Deacon then barked. “Now get the fuck out of here! ”
