Talking with Conner and Ashley

“It means we are not in a relationship, more like friends with benefits.”

“Ok. So what now?”

“Well, I’m hoping you will give me a chance.”

“What about Ashley?”

“I won’t see her again. Look Sasha, you are my mate, my fated mate and no one and I mean no one takes president over you. Tell me why would I need her when I have you?”

I sat there thinking, could I forgive him? I don’t know. But the main question is could I trust him? That is another answer of I don’t know. I looked at him.

“I will have to think about it Conner, it hurt me and my wolf last night walking in on you with her. You need to give me time.”

He nodded. “I understand and will give you all the time you need.”

He then stood up and kissed the back of my hand. Before he walked away closing the front door behind him. I sat there what the hell.

“I want mate.” Azelea whispered.

I could still feel her hurting, and I knew then that I wouldn’t make this easy. I got up and walked to the window and watched him walk away. I was just about to turn when I saw Ashley running up to him. She through herself in his arms. I stood there watching in anticipation on whether he would push her away or not.

My heart sank as his arms wrapped around her waist. My heart broke all over again.

“I want mate.”

“Azalea he’s not ours, look you just saw it. After everything he just told us and he welcomes her into his arms. I’m sorry Azalea but I don’t want us to hurt again. I can’t trust him.”

I slowly walked to the kitchen. I poured another coffee and sat at the breakfast bar. I wasn’t going to cry he didn’t deserve my tears. My mind wondered to Conner, goddess he was so handsome. It was as though the goddess sculpted him herself and took her time.

He was at least 6ft 5 with short shaved black hair. He had the most amazing green eyes and his arms were muscled like tree trunks. I saw him training one day and boy did his abs stick out. His 8 pack certainly had me imaging dirty things on what I would do to him.

I was brought out of my day dream by a knock on the door. It has to be Ashley. I trudged to the door not looking forward to see her. I took a few sweep breaths before I opened the door. Yep I was right there she stood looking like, hold on is that her boring face. BITCH.

“Well are you guna let me in?”

“Why should I do that?”

“Come on sash, we need to talk.”

“Hmm you best come in then.”

She strutted in and walked through to the kitchen and sat herself down at the breakfast bar. I walked in behind her and stood opposite her.

“So, talk.”

“Sash, I didn’t know, you know, that he was your mate.”

“Oh so that makes it all ok right? Do you have a habit of just sleeping with guys?”

She quickly stood up and put both hands on the. Counter.

“What the fuck do you mean by that?” She shouted.

“Exactly what I said Ashley.”

“Do you know sash for as long as I can remember you have always had everything your own fucking way. You always made a point of showing me what your parents got you. Whether it be jewellery or clothes. Always looking down on me. I’m sorry sash but this time I have got someone who wants me.”

I stood there fists clenched.

“You mean Conner?”

“Exactly right. We’ve been together for nearly a year. And guess what? He still wants me.”

She lent forward towards me, I don’t even know when I had slapped her, but I struck her right across her cheek. The palm of my hand started to sting. Fuck I slapped her hard. I watched as her cheek went instantly red and then whelp marks started to appear.

I have never struck Ashley before not ever. I even shocked myself but right now after what she just said I didn’t care. Well I did sort of but I wasn’t going to show that I did. I mean how do you just forget a lifetime best friend. Ashley quickly put her hand up to touch her face.

“You hit me.” She glared at me. “You fucking hit me.” She yelled.

I just stood there acting like I really wasn’t bothered.

“It’s best you leave right now.”

“Oh I will but just remember this Sasha while I’m around Conner will always come to me.” She turned and stormed out of the house slamming the door behind her. I breathed a sigh of relief.

“Oww, as I pouted and turned the cold tap on. I put my hand under the running water, fuck it’s stinging like shit. Oww, Oww, Oww. As I grabbed a T towel and held it on my hand.

“You slapped the bitch good.” Azalea chuckled.

“I did, didn’t I.” I smirked.

“Momma would be so proud of you.” Azalea told me.

I smiled and nodded my head.

I decided to go to the pack hall to get my clutch and my phone. I didn’t need my phone as I only had a few contacts on it. But I walked upstairs chucked my clothes on, walked back downstairs grabbing my door keys on the way out and headed to the pack house.

I walked as fast as I could not really speaking to anyone on the way there. When I arrived I saw Ashley and Conner with his beta and gamma sitting outside on the wall. My hand print was still there on her face. I snickered inside, but hearing Azalea laugh made my day. I held my head up high and walked right past them all.

They all stopped talking as I approached. Conner stared at me intently hoping I guess I would stop and talk to him. But I didn’t say nothing. I climbed the steps and went inside to retrieve my things.

Mrs walker the head housekeeper saw me and came towards me.

“Sasha dear, how are you?”

“Hi Mrs Walker, I’m good thank you, uh the thing is I left my clutch bag and phone here last night. Have you seen it?”

“I have my dear, let me get it for you.” She turned and walked to get my things. I stood there and waited for her.
