Asher walked inside his room with a calm countenance. His mother was long gone and leaving in her wake was a huge responsibility left on his shoulders. Not only was he supposed to get married to her but to also have a child? Remembering the words of his mother, he couldn't help but wonder what was so special about the damned Steele's. Why was he so clearly mandated to be family with the Steeles? Knowing his father, there had to have been something he was after. He didn't quite buy the idea of debt. He'd have to be a fool to believe that the sole reason for this clown show was to pay a debt. Asher was suddenly very curious about the lady sprawled on his bed. As he drew nearer to her sleeping form, he caught a closer look at her face. She was bare faced and that came as a huge surprise.
