Music Recommendation : Always Remember Us This Way - Lady Gaga
------------------------
Violet knew the exact moment Baron's influence left Asher's body. His eyes went unfocused for the briefest second and then snapped back to her, cold and resolved.
He was going to kill her.
"A-Asher—" Violet tried to speak, but his grip tightened around her neck.
Her breath hitched. He was crushing her throat so hard hot tears sprang into her eyes.
"D-don't…" she gasped, clawing at his arm, hitting him in desperation but it did nothing.
He was Asher fucking Nightshade, for goddess' sake. If there was anyone strong enough to fight this, it was him. Yet, there was not a single flicker of recognition in his gaze.
It was as if he didn't see her at all. She wasn't his Violet anymore, just a problem he had to eliminate. At this rate, Asher was actually going to kill her.
No, not happening!
