My Alpha Mate's Christmas Gift novel Chapter 56

　　“Maybe they are…” Roxanne imagined her mother and her grandmother, smiling at the thought.

　　Suddenly, she remembered the weather and the harsh conditions surrounding their location, she began to doubt the intruders were her relatives. Other than the bitter cold nature of the place, they were also in the middle of nowhere, and it wasn’t like she was with a tracking chip they had installed prior to her abduction.

　　Before the thought of hope bore enough fruit, she killed the idea. However, for someone to ask specifically about her, she wondered who it could be.

　　“It seems luck is on your side…” Asher answered, turning to Roxanne.

　　“W-What should we do, my Lord” Larry ventured further, bowing his head.

　　“Should we lock them up or do away with them?” He asked hesitantly.

　　“There's no need for any of that” Asher quickly said, turning back to face Roxanne and then brushing past her in a swift manner. He walked over to Larry and nodded slowly.

　　“I’ll take care of this,” He said with a confident look.

　　“S-Sir?” Larry appeared shocked by Asher's disposition.

　　“If anyone attempts to take what is mine, then they deserve my full attention. I don’t like to share!” He whispered to himself.

　　“I’ll have no choice but to teach them the consequences of their actions. After all, you don’t expect to take from the king's treasure without any form of recompense.” Asher said, turning Dax and noted.

　　“I’ll be going on ahead, you lot will only slow me down anyway.” He said do Dax and Rita.

　　Telling Larry to lead the way, he followed from behind and walked down the mountain. However, he gave Roxanne one final look and smiled at her.

　　“You have it all wrong, you know? The reason I’m still not married is because, before I met you, I couldn't find a single girl suitable for me… In essence, no one has been chosen of all the countless women who craved my attention. “ He added.

　　“That is why, after finding you… I’ll never let you go!” He said with a determined look.

　　“We'll talk later, Roxanne” He added, before finally disappearing from her sight.

　　“This guy…” Roxanne gritted her teeth.

　　While she was still clearly upset with Asher, she had other things to preoccupy the mind at the moment. Asher wanted to face off against the intruders, but what if they were people she knew? People precious to her? She needed to know who, and that meant she had to go to see them for herself.

　　“You're staying here Roxanne!” Rita said firmly.

　　“No! This concerns me the most. I won’t allow myself to be sidelined like this. What if they’re people I know, or people that know me? If that’s the case, and Asher misunderstands, he might do something to them!” Roxanne cried.
