If Ashlyn had any doubts previously, today clearly proved to her how her trying to cook was merely a recipe for disaster.

Not only did she char the beef and burn the butter, but the meat was stuck to the bottom of the pan. And when she tried to get it to set loose, it seemed that she used too much strength, and it flew off, landing on the floor of the living room.

Ashlyn's eyes widened at that, and she rushed towards the beef. She picked it up with bare hands and almost threw it off again due to how hot it was. She slapped the beef on the kitchen counter.

She wondered whether it would be fine to consume after she washed it. However, thinking that would be too much, she tossed it off to the trash can.

With barely any time on her hand, she started to cook another piece of beef. She turned on the fire high, so that it will be done fast. So that it didn't get stuck to the pan again, she added extra vegetable oil and butter.

Leaving that aside, Ashlyn stared at her mashed potato. Although

  • Being Beta Elijah's Mate   Troublesome As Him

    "What do you reckon we should do next?" The room was thick with tension that emanated from the high-ranking adult male werewolves in the room. Two of them were the Alphas of their respective packs— Azure Lake and Crystal. The rest of them present held a lot of prominence as well.There was fierce expression visible on the face of the Alpha of Azure Lake's face. A scar ran down his face, and it was a sign of shame for him since usually werewolves in high ranking position didn't have wound marks on their body due to their fast healing abilities. Along with these marks were old stories and deep grudges.Crystal Pack's Alpha appeared to be at more at ease compared to him. There was a bracelet in his hand, and he played with the beads. There was relaxation written in his eyes, and his mood seemed to be out of place compared to the rest.The other werewolves weren't able to hide their palpable fear. They knew how coldhearted and monstrous these two Alphas can be, and on a whim, they could

  • Being Beta Elijah's Mate   Find Him

    It didn't take much for Ashlyn to find Elijah.The man was leaning against the giant tree with his head lowered, and his feet kicked the pebble in front of his leg, playing with it. It almost felt as though the man was sulking.Ashlyn silently stared at him for a second, enough for him to notice her presence. Seeing how he didn't acknowledge her made her feel even more angry, and she stomped forward, about to burst in rage."What's up with you all of a sudden, Elijah? Wasn't everything just fine? Why are you throwing a tantrum again? That too in front of the Alpha. Do you know how embarrassing it is?!" Ashlyn's voice rose high.Even then Elijah didn't bother looking at her and treated her as though she was invisible.Noticing how the pebble had her full attention and he was still playing with it made her further irritated. She kicked the pebble with all her might, releasing her anger, and had it fly high to a large distance.Elijah remained unbothered at that.He slid down the tree tr

  • Being Beta Elijah's Mate   Spotted Them

    Ashlyn drowsily moved her hand around on the bed, trying to feel for a figure. Creases formed between both of her brows when she noticed that Elijah wasn't there on the bed beside her, and the bed turned cold, indicating how the man had gotten up much earlier. The scent of his pheromones was really weak as well.Noticing how the sun didn't even rise yet, Ashlyn wondered where he could have gone. Elijah preferred to lay on the bed much later than her, and usually it was her waking the man up.Getting up from the bed, she rubbed her eyes and pulled the curtains. Just as she was about to walk away, she spotted something. This made her halt her steps.There were two figures standing close, talking with each other seemingly. Ashlyn narrowed her eyes when she recognized them as Elijah and Elaine.This immediately got her eyes to darken, wondering what both of them are up to sneakily.This had her mind-link Elijah."Where are you?"It's not that she didn't trust Elijah. Elijah wasn't the typ

  • Being Beta Elijah's Mate   Loving Her

    Ashlyn didn't think twice before slamming open the door to the laboratory and entering. Her foot stomped the ground, and her glaring eyes filled with dissatisfaction fell on the smiling man.Elijah wore a lab coat while holding on to a test tube. The sleeves were pulled up, revealing his veiny and muscular arm, and his hair was messily brushed back. Ashlyn took a second to admire this attractive sight before her anger came back again."You are here. You took a while. I was getting a little bored waiting for you," the man expressed.The audacity of him to speak like that!She folded her hands over her chest and asked, "Is it fun to mess with me?""You are cute," Elijah expressed.Ashlyn glowered at him harder at that and questioned, "You knew I would be here?""Well, I had a guess that you will be too mad to sleep tonight. You at least have to punch me a couple times before you can peacefully close your eyes."Ashlyn bit the insides of her mouth."You are damn right about that!"No one

    His heart beat rapidly in his chest as Samuel stood in the line, blending in with the rest of the recruits. His face and clothing was covered in dirt, and his shabby appearance matched with the others present.The ones responsible for inspecting them were walking up to each of the werewolves and questioning them. It was his turn next, and that's what made him nervous.He tried to keep his emotions at bay, fearing that the men would smell it and find him suspicious. Although he was fully determined to place his life at stake for this, this didn't erase the apprehension at the thought of being caught.He was pretty inexperienced in putting his life in line for something like this.Samuel kept his face straight, and his eyes burned with determination and obedience, very much resembling the other loyal werewolves as the pair of scrutinizing eyes fixated on him next."I have never seen you around before. Where are you from?" A gruff voice questioned."From Blue Waters. It is a small nearby

    The next day, emails were sent to the couple of the pack alphas. At first, they were all skeptical of the sudden message sent, and knowing how their email was only shared within a certain circle, they thought that the email should be of great importance and opened it.The title of the email attracted them as well.'If you want to save your pack.'Currently, all of their packs have been going through great turmoil, and they were desperate to keep both the pack and the pack members safe. Even if this could potentially turn out to be a prank, they didn't hesitate before clicking the email.What's the worst that can happen?The content of the email was well written.It started with how this was written on the behalf of the northern packs and stated how they were apologetic for the recent massacre that happened. Apparently, it wasn't in their intentions to bring them such troubles, and this was the result of their failure and helplessness.Although the mail was trying to express humbleness

    Although the Alpha of the White Flame pack was frightened at Elijah's threat and could see that he very much meant to do it, he knew that he had to maintain his momentum. Knowing that almost everyone in this room was on his side gave him a boost of courage.No matter how powerful Elijah was, it's not like he could actually go against him here in front of everyone.He had to give him some face.Slapping his hand off the table, the Alpha tried to maintain his bearing and stood up straight, shouting, "How audacious! You are just a Beta! How dare you try to disrespect an Alpha? You should be punished for your actions."Elijah gave him a mocking chuckle."What a joke. Do you think there is any meaning to leading such a weak pack?" This caused the Alpha to be at a loss of words.Sebastian stepped in to rectify the situation and vocalized, "Elijah, that's it. Don't go too far."The other Alphas were about to gloat how even Sebastian had to put them into consideration when he added, "Ashlyn

He will be able to ease the situation well without being taken advantage of.Elijah bought two ice creams and handed over the chocolate flavored one to Ashlyn. Ripping open the cover of the ice-cream, she took a bite out of the cream, making Elijah almost cringe at the scene."How are you feeling? Have you calmed down?" Elijah asked."I don't know. I should have felt better if I managed to get a few lives on my hand. It's a pity," she commented.Elijah nodded, agreeing along with her statement."It's not too late to go back and end their lives if you feel like it. I can help you," Elijah offered.A slight smile appeared on Ashlyn's face."It's weird to have you on my side. It's the first time you didn't get mad at me for acting violently. Usually, wouldn't you call me short-tempered and rash?" Ashlyn said."Wasn't that because I was

    Although the state of the pack was devastating, they were holding off better than what they had originally anticipated. The casualties suffered on their side were much less.After Ashlyn killed another one of the pack's leader, she tried to mind-link Samuel, deeply hoping that nothing had happened to him. However, she wasn't able to get connected to him.There were no signs of him around here according to the pack warriors.Also she hadn't heard anything from her brother as well.Elijah had dealt with a fair share of werewolves as well. He looked exhausted as he took the moment to catch his breath."Matthew should be where the Alpha went," Elijah expressed.Ashlyn nodded."There isn't nothing much to do here other than the cleaning up. That's why, I will go and look for the Alpha," Elijah expressed."Do that then."Elijah patted on her head before disappearing.°°°Sebastian held his mate in his hand protectively.

    When Samuel learned that they were going to attack the pack tomorrow, he was beyond shocked and sent into panic. He thought that at least they would take a week or so more.They explained the plan to them, and all the pack members were under their mind control. All of them were stimulated enough with drugs to stay awake for at least a week straight, and the dosage will be increased during the fight in order to unlock their full potential.In order to not seem entirely suspicious, Samuel took the drug a couple of times, and he could feel how powerful it was. It took all of his will to not let himself be controlled by the drug. There were times he felt he was out of his senses, but his willpower was strong enough to allow him to maintain his consciousness. The way it provided him energy, he could understand how draining the drug will be on his body, and once he is totally hollowed out, there is nothing else other than death for him.Everyone was administered the drug for today, and Sam

  • Being Beta Elijah's Mate   Cry

    Ashlyn and Elijah imprisoned Daniel and the other important members of the pack and questioned them about the information. At first, they had tight lips, but the threats from both Ashlyn and Elijah got them to open their mouths.Although their words were filled with lies, it was easy for Ashlyn and Elijah to recognize them. That infuriated Ashlyn further, and she took out her anger at them in the most brutal ways.Most of them were half dead and senseless by the time they extracted the information, and it could be seen that Matthew was conservative on how much information he shared with them.According to what Daniel knew, Matthew approached them and offered this cooperation. They had no choice but to agree because not only did Matthew threaten them, but also promised them glory and protection. They were helpless and had to agree.Half the time, Daniel called them tyrants for acting in this manner while on the other hand, he begged for forgiveness and wanted to be spared. Ashlyn had

    When Daniel offered them to stay the night in the pack, Elijah and Ashlyn didn't refuse, believing that would allow them to inspect the pack more.Once the dinner was done, they were led to their rooms. Ashlyn and Elijah shared a room whereas Rose had hers. Both of them didn't care much about Rose being alone although the Alpha ordered them specifically to make sure that their Luna is fine.Ashlyn was too disgusted to face her and wasn't sure if she would be able to control her emotions. And it's not like anything would happen to her in this pack.In the dead of the night, Elijah and Ashlyn sneaked out and searched around the pack's vicinity, trying to find anything important. There was nothing much found.But they noticed the strict security system, which was odd given how the members in the pack lacked training and resources. And most of the pack members remained in their houses. There was a sort of gloominess present.Other than that, there wasn't much important clues, and they did

    Three of them set off for the Dream Pack with Daniel the next day. The Dream Pack was situated pretty far from their pack, so it took them quite a while to reach.Once they reached the pack, they could see how the pack was noticeably smaller than other packs, and there wasn't much population as well. It seemed like a pretty inconspicuous pack, and it made sense why Matthew would choose this pack to hide at.They were warmly greeted inside. And as they were being led towards the pack house, Ashlyn looked around, trying to find any suspicious signs. However, everything appeared pretty normal.Most of the children showed fear towards Ashlyn, and they stayed away from her presence. It can be seen that her reputation had spread here.Once they were in the pack house, they were given meals, and after they rested for about half an hour, Elijah and Ashlyn asked the Alpha for a tour of the pack. They wanted to discuss some matters as well.At the same time, Elijah warned Rose: "Be here. Don't

    "No matter how much I think about it, it doesn't make sense for the Alpha and you to agree along with cooperating with Dream Pack. There has to definitely be a reason behind it," Ashlyn commented, waiting outside of the Alpha's office with Elijah.Her brother, Sebastian, was having a talk inside with Daniel Waters. Seeing how long the conversation between them was going on, it genuinely made her wonder whether there was anything this worthy to chat about. Of course, Elijah was instructed to keep an eye on Ashlyn and keep her out in case she ran her mouth randomly and acted a little too disrespectfully. And no matter how curious Ashlyn was, she wasn't able to able to have a peek into their conversation.Elijah stared at her with amusement in his eyes."What makes you think that?" he questioned.She slapped on his arm and ordered, "Be honest or else I am going to be really upset.""When was I not being honest? You can't keep on falsely blaming me and ruining my reputation. I need a com
