Ash POV

“Want to join us for the evening patrol?” Caspian asks.

I jerk my head upwards, “What does that mean?”

“You know, we will run around. It is just an excuse to go wild in wolf form. It isn’t compulsory unless it is a full moon but it is a good opportunity to meet everyone.” He explains.

I try to not let the horror show on my face as I realize that during the course of the days we spent together, not once did I mention that I lost my wolf. This isn’t good. I definitely can’t bring it up now and definitely not at the dinner table in front of everyone.

I smile stiffly, “Not tonight, I just want to get some rest.” I stuff some food in my mouth, if I am chewing my expression should not betray me.

“That is too bad,” Damien says. “It would have been nice to run with you.”

I squint my eyes and nod my head but since my mouth is full, I do not attempt to talk. Kay doesn’t say anything and he keeps his gaze on his food while Damon glares at me and Claire looks indifferent.

    Caspian's POVI am sitting across from Ashton with my hands folded and it is all can do to not grab her and hold her close to me.She is leaning against the chairs, her shoulders are relaxed and so is her face as she stares at the night sky. I do wish she could go running with us tonight, I am curious about her wolf."What do you think about my Pack?" I ask.I am curious about this and a part of me still can't believe she agreed to follow me here considering how adamant she had been about it.The questions about how we located her in the car threw me off guard a little and I thought she might catch up on me and decide not to go with us but she did and it is relieving.I see her twist her hand at my question, she looks genuinely uncomfortable and I can tell I won't like what she is about to say. I brace myself for her answer. Ashton's words always seem to catch me off guard."I am not going to lie, it is much better than I thought." She says and throws her face away."Did you actually

    Ash POVI watch Caspian leave the balcony with Kay walking behind and I turn my attention to the night sky. The air is cool, the kind that isn't uncomfortable enough for one to need a jacket.I close my eyes and lean against the headboard. I should probably go to my room but I will be stuck doing nothing so it is best if I just sit here enjoying the night breeze as long as I can before I retire to bed.I don't know how long the patrol will take but I assume it will take a while. Wolves do love to run around. I wouldn't know. It does suck to not have a wolf anymore. I do remember the feeling of having one. My first turn had been excruciatingly painful and I remember crying all through the process.My mother had held me during the entirety of the process and it was comforting to have her there as I truly thought I was going to die.Nathan didn't let me forget as he constantly mocked my cries. Apparently, I did think I was going to die and kept crying that I didn't want to.It is a litt

    Ash POV"You are the reason Caspian was away for that amount of time, right?" He asks suddenly.My hands on the pad freeze and I slowly turn around to see him looking at me closely. I quickly turn away and swallow."Yes," I mumble with my eyes glued to the screen."I thought so," he says and plays the game. "Let's play."I blink, I am a little taken aback that's the only thing he says about my response but I am glad I don't have to say more.I focus all my attention on the game, shutting out any unnecessary thoughts. I haven't played any video games in a while and I find that I am excited."You won!" He says in horror at the end of the game.I smirk, "So it would seem.""How?""Lucky, I guess.""That was luck.""I am pretty good with fighting games, as long as the moves are simple and I am familiar with them. You just underestimated me." I scoff."What do you expect? You didn't know how to select a character." He says, his look of bewilderment hasn't changed."In my defense, I have ne

    Caspian POVI left the patrol a little early, well it was basically the end of it so I know, Vi wouldn't have a problem handling the rest. I do feel good to be back but I know I would have preferred to be stuck indoors with her.I growl as I make my way back to the house. There must be something wrong with me. I am probably just worried and I want to see if she is faring well. I think to myself as I run in the moonlight in my wolf form.I make my way into the house and hurriedly make my way upstairs, still in my wolf form. I stop in front of Ashton's room and she isn't there. I then make my way to the balcony but by the scent, I can tell she left here a while ago.I rush to my room and change back to human form, grab on a pair of pants and make my way downstairs again. She isn't in the kitchen and I can't sense her anywhere.She wouldn't have left right? I panic. Why would she, after following us all the way here? It didn't make any sense but at this point, I can't put anything past A

    Ash POV"Ashton, do you need something? Is the air conditioner not working again?" He asks. His voice is just as concerned as his face.I shake my head as I snap out of it. "No, no. It is fine. I was just wondering if I can get a hairdryer." I said as I wonder where I can rest my eyes, definitely not on his chest."Oh, it explains why your hair is wrapped." He says.I nod looking up at his face, he is really taller than I am. I know this but for some weird reason, I am very aware of this now."Come in, I will get you mine.""You have a hairdryer?" I ask in horror as I walk into his room."Don't sound so surprised and yes, I do. I was growing my hair out at some point and it is easier than having to deal with wet hair so even though I have short hair now, I still use it."I nod my hair as he speaks but I am not really listening. Caspian's room is bigger than mine, his bed is also very huge. It could be a King's sized bed easily.His room is quite clean, everything's in its proper place

    Ash POVI wake up suddenly, I immediately notice I am wrapped in warmth and my face is against something solid. This most definitely does not feel like a pillow. I recognize the smell as soon as my nose wakes up with the rest of my body.Caspian.How in heaven’s name did I wind up like this? I remember myself coming up to his room and asking for a hairdryer. I most likely fell asleep while he was helping me dry and brush my hair.I growl internally, however, I cannot make any sudden movement as I am wrapped like a burrito. I am pressed against his chest with his arms around me even the slightest movement can wake the sleeping wolf up.I know he is fast asleep as I can hear the steady beat of his heart and his soft breathing. I am too close to see his face and it doesn't help that he has his arms right around me."Too tight?" He suddenly asks.I feel my blood run cold and my heart immediately stops. "You are awake?" I yell and pull backward."Now, I am." He mumbles and rubs his eyes wi

    Ash POV"Stop staring at him like that," Kay says to me. "He will scold you."I immediately throw my gaze away. I did not realize I am gawking until Kay spoke to me. "Sorry," I apologize. "I have just never seen him look like that before.""I know right, Damon is meanie but when he is with Claire he acts completely different," Kay whispers."Are they mates?" I ask.Kay's expression falls and before he can open his mouth to speak a loud voice ring out."What are you whispering about?" I hear Damon's usual grouchy ring out. I immediately roll my eyes, I can only do this because I have my back to him."Stop it, Damon, it is too early for this." Claire scolds and doesn't say anything more.He sits beside her just as Damien laid out the plates filled with food. Bacon and eggs with a little bit of toast on the side. It smells absolutely delicious.I feel my mouth water and I pick up my cutlery but then I realize Caspian isn't here yet but everyone is eating."Where is Caspian?" I ask."Alph

    Ash POV"Kay!" I tell loudly but he makes no indication that he hears me and rushes at him touching him."Kay!" I say.He immediately takes his headset off and turns in my direction. He looks puzzled. "What do you think you are doing?" I yell. "I was waiting for you."His confusion clears. "Oh, I'm sorry. Take a seat and give me a minute. I'll explain when I am done.""What do you mean when you are done?" I am getting angry."Please Ashton, I am right in the middle of something important.""Important! You're playing a game.""Yes and I am going to lose, if I don't return, please. You can sit, let me be done with this." He is already wearing back his headset and his eyes return to the screen.I blink rapidly, I don't know what to do in this situation. I can exactly drag him off and it will be rude to interrupt him again after he just asked for a few minutes."I am sorry about that," he says into his headset.I glare at the back of his head and sit at the edge of the bed as I wait.

    Ash POVIt has been more than three days since the birthday party. It went off without a hitch. I had so much fun I can barely remember the incidents except that Caspian refused to let me out of his sight. He said I was too beautiful to be left on my own, according to him someone might kidnap me. Even though there was no chance of that happening, I did like the fact that he was all over me. It did get annoying at some point but he didn't stop me from having a good time.However, even though I had a swell time a couple of days ago, I am in bed with the sheets to my neck and a fever band on my head. I fell sick. It's a full moon today and the patrol is compulsory but Caspian is missing out on it to stay with me. I feel awful, he is the alpha of the pack but I am keeping him away like this."You know you don't have to stay with me. It's just a little fever, I will be fine on my own." I say as he changes the fever band on my forehead.He glares at me, "The fact that you think I would le

It is your birthday, there is no way I am gonna let you dress up by yourself.""But…""No buts," Bennie says and holds up two different earrings. "Which do you think will match perfectly, Claire?""Huh? Aren't you supposed to ask me?" I yell out."Nah, I am pretty sure the designer is the one who decides.""It's my day, don't I get to decide anything?""Of course not. Leave everything else to us. It's your day," Bennie says, wiggling her brows. "You're not required to do anything. Let the adults handle this.""Wait, what do you mean adults? You're just a couple of months older than me." I glare at her."Still older," she smirks.I glare harde

    Ash POVI move my head even faster and he grabs my hair to pull me off him. I don’t understand what this means and I hold, not letting him pull me off.“I am gonna…” he blurts out and I feel him spurt against the back of my throat. I swallow before I realize what is happening.“Did you just swallow?” Caspian asks as he pulls back my head with horror in his eyes.I smile up at him, nodding. “Why? Spit it out.”“I can’t,” I reply. It wasn’t exactly my intention to swallow. I can taste it at the back of my throat and it tastes gnarly.“Why did you swallow it?”I stick out my tongue, “It tastes weird.”“Don’t say that,” Caspian says with an embarssed expression and I burst out laughing.He grabs my cheeks and pinches them a little too hard, stopping my laughter immediately. “Ow,” cry, “That hurts.”“Serves you right.”I try to kiss him and he shrinks back in fear. “Nooo, I don’t want to taste it.”“I swallowed it,” I glare at him.“You didn’t have to,” he says and looks away.I raise a

    Ash POVI am kneeling on the bed with my legs across Caspian. He is sitting on the bed with his back against the bed’s headboard. He is hard as a rock underneath me and I feel him press against my sensitive parts. I can swear I feel him grow some more and it takes me everything not to squirm against him. His hands slowly make their way up the back of my shirt, I try to keep still as his warm hands caress me. They slowly move from the back to the front until cups my breast with his hands. I break the kiss and lean on his shoulder as I try to catch my breath. His hands on my chest don't slow down and all I can do is hold on to him as the waves of pleasure carry me away. I am supposed to be in charge, why am I the one panting against him while he is in perfect state? Without thinking I softly bite the side of his neck and Caspian groans against me. I bite harder and he curses. I suck on his neck and he squeezes tighter on my breasts.His fingers pinches the tip and I gasp, I throw my

    Ash POV"Wait for me," he whispers directly into my right ear. I feel his breath on my ear and the side of my neck, it sends shivers down my spine.I nod obediently and he pulls away from me. I watch him while rooted beside the door. He doesn't turn around and I keep watching him until the bathroom door closes.I put my hand to my chest, it is beating so hard I am sure he heard it before he left me. I groan and climb to the side of the bed.I slip between the sheets and pull the cover sheets all the way to my face. My face reddens as I think of what will happen when he comes out. I cover my face with my palm and close my eyes."Oh no," I mumble. I can't quell my excitement.I sleep on my side with the sheets pulled all the way to my head. It's a little hard to breathe underneath it but it hides my face.After what feels like forever, I hear the bathroom door open and fight the urge to peek out of the sheet. I hear Caspian bustling around in the room and then I hear his footsteps appro

    Ash POVI don’t know who is more surprised by the kiss but Caspian recovers quickly as he presses me against him and kisses me hard.I pull away from him gasping for air. "We should go inside," I say with my head down."Indeed," he says with amusement and kisses the top of my head.He removes his hand from my waist and grabs my hand. He pulls to the door and holds it open until we both go through the door.I immediately smell cooking but Caspian doesn't let me go and just pulls me through the living room and to the stairs. We stop in front of his room and he still holds me tightly."Caspian," I say gently as he opens his door."Yes," he responds but doesn't make any attempt to look at me."Let me go to my room and clean up. I will join you in a moment." I say as gently as I can even though I am fighting the urge to smack the back of his head."No," he says without any explanation.I open my mouth to protest and he pulls me into the room and shuts the door. He closes the gap between us

I glare at her."Oh really, I can tell you're the one with the issues in the relationship because Alpha sounds like he wants to keep you all to himself. I mean anyone with an eye can see that.""He just has a protective streak," I say with a pout."Protective my ass. Do you see him lifting me in my arms? Why do you think I thought something was going on between you two?" She smirks knowingly.I sigh, I want to tell her my fears but I will have to tell her more than I want to and I don't think I am ready for that."I do think it's a good thing," she says when I don't say anything. She looks to the corner of the room and screams out. "Holy smokes! Look at the time. Vi is gonna have our heads.""Oh my goodness," I say, following her gaze. "It's past five. What's Kay doing?"I rush out of bed and yo the war

I take a deep breath and lean back on the couch."It is fine," I smile faintly at her.She still looks worried and she leans on to check my face. "Are you okay?" She asks.I nod, "Yes, I am.""Sorry about that," she chuckled awkwardly. "I just wanted you to know how sorry I am.""I get it and thank you for apologizing.""It's no problem." She said and gave me a hug before standing to her feet. "Let me know if you need anything."I nod and she waves and skips away. I sit on the couch for a couple minutes and I remember that I did not reply to Bennie.I quickly shoot her a reply apologizing without giving out any details. I don't want to explain on the phone if I am going to explain in person.As soon as I am done replying, I head upstairs. As much as I want to check on Kay I know it is better to give

    Ash POVI hear the sound of the microwave go off as I start to send out a reply. As I stand on my feet I hear the sound of someone coming into the kitchen. I turn around to see Claire and I instinctively freeze as the memory of the conversation I had with Caspian pops in my head. For a millisecond, I am stunned and at a loss for words. "Ashton," Claire says and walks into the kitchen.The sound of her voice snaps me out of the trance and I manage to smile as I say her name. "Claire, good morning.""Rough night, huh?" She says with a soft smile."Not really," I say and turn away from her. "I was just lazy." I stop in front of the microwave and pull out my meal. Boy, does it smell heavenly.I blow a mind kiss to Damien and make my way back to the table. I see Claire is also seated and my stomach knots up but I immediately ignore it and go to sit opposite from her.I dig into my meal but she doesn't say anything, just sits watching me eat.
