Ashlynn POV.
“If you don’t sit down and be a good girl, I’m calling Jordan, I don’t care that you are mated and old now, I’ll call him and he’ll come to get your ass little sis,” Keiran threatens me, it’s rare for him to threaten me, he hasn’t done so in so long, but right now he’s doing so, threatening me with Jodan, Jordan wasn’t here, he’s in his pack with his mate, but if we call him, maybe he’d come.
“He can’t have my bum anymore, it belongs to Aspen,” I sass back to my brother, he’s also the alpha and I’m on his land, I should be more respectful, but I’m not and I won’t I still get the chance to annoy him.
“Then should I call him? Tell him that you’re being a naughty little thing?” he says, that got me to pout, I don’t like this plan, I prefer him calling Jordan, Jordan isn’t as scary and I’m used to him, I can talk him out of spanking me, but Aspen, he told Eli to give my bum three smacks and then send me to bed early.
All I did was drive Eli crazy, bullying Kiara into getting me ice cream, I asked Jacob for some a couple of times and he said no, but he doesn’t say no to his little girl, but then he did say no, and we had to steal it ourself, we can’t be denied our ice cream, not ever!
Today, I did something a little worse than being on a sugar high and driving people crazy, today I shifted to my wolf form, and attacked most of the pack, I was in my little space, and all I wanted to do was play but mom wouldn’t play with me, neither would Liam and the rest in the patrol guy, but then I was kicked back in, I was forced back in by Keiran.
“I just wanted to play, nothing wrong with playing,” I say with a big pout, I was just having fun, nothing wrong with fun, Eli didn’t yell at me why should Keiran?
“Nothing wrong with playing Ashlynn, but not when you are playing with the guys who are on patrol,” Keiran says making my pout bigger.
“Fine, I’ll sit and be a good girl,” I lie to him, I plan on annoying someone else.
“I don’t believe you, go sit with Jacob,” he says, that’s the worse punishment ever, to sit with my brother while he works, even Kiki doesn’t do that!
“Can’t I sit with Kiara?” I ask with puppy eyes instead.
“No, Kiara is napping, I don’t want you to disturb her, go sit with Jacob, if you’re nice for a full hour, then you can go out and play,” Keiran says, that’s not the worse deal ever.
“Okay, fine,” I agree with him, moving my bum to the office where I know my brother is, followed by Keiran, he doesn’t really trust me, not when it comes to sitting and being quiet.
“Hey, Jacob! I missed you!” I lie getting inside the office and going for a hug, I do love my brother don’t get me wrong.
“Hey, little sis, what are you up to?” Jacob answers me, it’s been so long since I had the chance to annoy him.
“Keep her in with you, for an hour, if she’s good then she’s allowed out,” Keiran adds making me pout, not fair.
“Where’s Eliot?” Jacob asks, yeah where is my other mate, he should come here and be locked in with me.
“Liam is giving him a crash course about wolves, they’re busy,” he says, wow! he’d sit down with Liam and not me! That’s not fair or nice!
“What are you doing?” I ask Jacob instead, everyone is a big meanie to me.
“I’m reading some emails,” he answered me, what emails? why emails?
“What kind of emails?” I ask him.
“Ones we share between packs, it’s a beta job, maybe you can learn this and give me a break to go on a holiday with Kiara,” he says, I don’t mind helping them, especially when I’m in my big space, I sat closer to him, pushing myself up to my big headspace and gave him my full attention.
Most of the emails were boring, just ones about how the pack is doing, some were asking for help about an attack, and others about food shortages. I helped him reply to most emails, we’d help where we can but others have to find their own solutions, this job isn’t the worse, I could be a beta easily.
“I’ll do the next email!” I say excited wanting to do it alone, and he can check the mail before I send it, I started to read the email, it was sent to everyone.
Dear packs members,
Greeting,
We’d like to warn all packs, especially the ones near the city, that there’s a big danger nearing them.
Be careful of the rogues attacking the city, they are hired by some mafia man and roaming the city free. Rumours about a mafia war going on in the streets of the city, make sure to avoid these two clubs. *Insert the club’s Logo*
Stay safe.
Regards,
The wolf association team.
I knew one of these club logos, I was in one of them, I knew about the war going, and it’s the city I knew about, and I knew the mafia man! This isn’t good, this is bad, really, really bad, I think I’m going to have a panic attack, I talked to him this morning, and he was all good, and he told me not to worry.
“Are you okay Ashlynn? What happened?” my brother asks me.
“I… I…” I say not knowing how to go on with this.
“Should I call Eli?” he asks me, I try to nod yes, I need him, I really need him.
“Okay, stay here, I will,” he says giving me a slight hug before taking off to go and get Eli, I tried to read the email again, but it says wolves are going crazy, what if they got to Aspen, he needs us! We need to go and save him!
“Ashlynn! Princess! Are you okay?” Eli asks getting inside the office, to check on me.
“Yes, but I’m not the one you should be worried about,” I say my whole face going pale, I felt like the world is closing on my chest, all I could think about was Aspen being hurt, being away from us when he needed us the most.
“Who then?” Eli asks just as worried as I.
“Aspen,” I whisper the name.
