"Then, the meeting is adjourned. More details will be sent via fax and email so please be updated." The Wolf got dismissed and Ally hurriedly went to the side of her mother. Ash bet she was going to ask about the Borson condition. Ash then walked towards the hallway when he heard someone.
"I just hope I won't be in the same group as this faggy Wolf!" Braze Bamree spat at him as he punched him hard in his shoulders. Ash flinched at the horrible pain from the punch but didn't let it show to him. He just decided to step back and gave a way even though all he ever wanted was to punch the guy back. He just couldn't as he remembered his father's words the last time they talked, the day he was being disowned with his father, the day he came out to the world.
"You know I cannot accept your lifestyle son. You disgusted me, there is no Brandon in the history who has that kind of sickness. Plus you're my only son, you should continue our bloodline, not become a gay. But I wouldn't take back the Brandon name and you being as a White Wolf to you as it is your identity. However, I cannot see you as my son anymore, nor I am associated with your solider activities, not if you will be healed. Until then, you are a lone Brandon from now. And you will take your step out of this house and never come back once again. And please, don't make any move that could disgrace the Brandon's name once again."
Those words coming from his father had shattered him. Even though the Brandon's were incredibly rich and influential, but everyone knew what his father did to him. Most of them thought he deserved it, but the people closest to him especially his family was angry to their father. But as of the moment they couldn't do anything because they weren't still an adult. But then Simon and Rose had become rebellious against their father and with him being an second head, he rarely went home. And that meant that Rose and Simon were still closed and connected to him despite what happened.
Ash didn't inherit anything from the Brandon's. In such a young age he started to live and make a living on his own. Thankfully, because of his natural talents he was able to earn substantial amount of money that would make him fall into a standard life. But despite of what happened he still did his best to be the best in all aspects. Even if he felt trapped and as if, it was not him anymore. He did everything in any way for his father to recognize him but to no avail. Unless, he would marry a girl, then maybe his father could accept him once again.
But the thought was sickening.
"Don't be so cocky you faggy wolf just because your parents have the highest position in the Clan you could flaunt your dick and assess here! Oh wait, I remember your father disowned you! Well, who would want a son who's a cocksucker?" Braze smirked as his pals continued on laughing to him. Ash rage rose as he fisted his palms and resisted the urge to just slammed him into the wall and break his face. But he knew he must not do that. If he ever involved in another shameful incident, his father would be disgusted to him more.
"Watch your mouth Braze, if you don't want to get killed." A voice said behind them and they turned around to find Ally staring dangerously to them.
"Huh, right another fag. Suit yourselves." As he said and his group exited the room. Ally looked at him with concern and he only smiled and shrugged as if nothing affected him. Sometimes he was extremely jealous of Ally. If it's the wolf society, he could deal with it, but sometimes he wished he had Clare as his mother where he would accept him wholeheartedly despite his own sexuality. He suddenly felt that horrible hole in his heart. His mother and supposed to be youngest brother died when his mom tried to give birth on their brother.
After the whole ruckus in the base he went back to the apartment only to be greeted by roseo suddenly grabbing his arm and taken him to the bedroom.
"Rose what the hell?"
"Oh hush brother! You were late! It's nearly 9pm! We were bored and were just waiting for you!" At his Ash raised his eyebrow and stared at her questionably.
"Didn't you say you were supposed to plan on the raid operation we will be doing tonight?" Rose just grinned at him as reply.
"Yes and this is part of the plan. You should wear these clothes!" Ash stared horribly at the clothes Rose prepared to him.
"The hell I am going to wear any of that! I won't! This has nothing to do with the raid operation!"
"Actually, you are the sole key of the success of this operation brother! So quit whining and get your ass off! We're going clubbing and well, yeah, commence our operation." Simon suddenly came and said those words to him. He tilted his head and saw Team was wearing a white shirt that hugged his muscles in an endearing way and his black skinny jeans emphasized his long legs. Ash couldn't help but blush and before his best friend would notice it he quickly turned his head away and grabbed the clothes and went into the bathroom.
"Nicely done big brother! Don't worry, we will explain to you how this operation will work and why you should make a sacrifice right now. We promise it will be worthwhile!" Rose said with a knowing smirk that made Ash groaned.
"Great. They just made me as a pawn in this operation."
The four of them stood frozen as their eyes shifted back and forth between Ash and Seth. The room was filled with silence as they digested the information about what was going on."The Queen of the Shadow Clan? What the hell is going on, Ash?" Ash released a heavy sigh as he shared a knowing look with Seth. Seth nodded as he went into his room and grabbed his laptop."Okay, before we begin this, shall we all take a seat while Seth is gathering up his things?"The four of them stared at Ash in confusion before they nodded reluctantly and went to find an available seat. After a few minutes a pair of small, quick steps rushed downstairs. Seth came in as he sat on the chair near the table and set up his laptop. After sorting out the information he gathered he turned his laptop to the audience. Four sets of eyes stared at his laptop and widened their eyes as they recognized the symbol.The f
Five hours have passed since Ash let Rose and the group roam around the city. He walked to the kitchen room of the apartment they rented and poured himself a cup of black coffee to make his system more alert. He just woke up from his sleep. The moment Alexander left, he immediately went to the nearest bedroom. The breeze of hot, humid air was making him weak. At first he thought he would enjoy the cold air around Wausau, since the city is covered with hemi boreal forests, not to mention their location is near the great Wausau River. But then he was wrong, he forgot to check that the temperature around the city during May is rising fast to higher temperatures. And because the heat was weakening his body, combined with the exhaustion he feels on his mental and emotional state, he allowed himself to finally have some sleep.But he didn't regret it at all. It was the best five hour sleep he had in his life, considering the tough situation they're in. And now
"Afraid I might change my mind?" Ash said before he heard the door slam shut. Ash was about to stand and turn around to head for the bed when the door slightly opened once again and there revealed the figure of Alexander."Are you sure you aren't coming, darling? It's boring to be here all alone, you know. I assure you, you will enjoy touring around Wausau.""Thank you for being thoughtful, Alexander. But really, I am fine. I seriously just want to sleep today. I am tired and exhausted. Maybe some other time, if we will have one. I promise then I won't be a killjoy anymore and join the fun. It's just that right now—"Ash statement was interrupted when he suddenly felt a pair of warm arms wrap around him."I know. I know you're too stressed today, Ash. But please don't push yourself. You can share this burden with us, you know. We're all in this together. And your sister is right, you need to loosen up. This case takes a to
The next morning, everyone was busy as bees as they unpacked their things, setting up the tools and the information they gathered for their investigation."Ah! God I am dead tired! You know, we all deserve to have some break. We will not start commencing an operation until tonight. Why don't we gift ourselves with roaming around the place and enjoy it during the mean time? It would be a waste if we don't get to enjoy the beauty of Wausau." Rose whined as she sat on the sofa and let out a heavy sigh."No can do, Rose. I am sorry that your first case is nothing but a shitty one like this. But as soon as possible we need to stop the Balck Clan. By tonight, I want us to be fully prepared in case something will happen.""Ash I know how serious and critical our mission is. But can't we have some breath of fresh air? I think anytime soon I'll combust from suffocating on everything that's hanging around my head right now." Rose h
Thankfully, their seats were not too far from each other, they only need to turn around or tap on their colleague in the front row. The seating arrangement inside the train is composed of two columns, with an aisle of the center. 3 people can occupy per row on the right column while two people can occupy per row on the left. Since majority of them are already in a relationship, they chose the 2 person per row."Well, I doubt you both are still single. But for technicality purposes, let's say we get a 3 seat row because obviously, we already have couples in the group. Either of you wouldn't want to become a third wheel for the lovebirds, right?" Rose teased as she threw them a wicked smile when they were reserving their seats on the internet.Ash couldn't help but groan when of course, he is paired with Alexander in the seating arrangement, seeing as they're the only ones who are still "single"."Hey, how lo
Ash couldn't help but groan at the thought. He dropped his head in defeat when he suddenly felt a sharp pain on his forehead."Ouch!" Ash yelped as he massaged his forehead as it bumped into the front seat."Why so glum, plum?" Ash eyes widened as he heard the beautiful melody of Alexander silky voice. He lifted his head again and took in the exotic beauty of Alexander. He was wearing a white thin shirt with its three first buttons hanging open. It was so thin that Ash swore he could make out his lean torso. He wore black spiky pants that matched his spiky hair that was covered in silver glitter. All in all, Alexander was just as breathtaking as ever."Nothing. I guess I am just too stressed up nowadays." He said flustered as he could hear Alexander footsteps coming towards him. Not a minute later he was embraced with a warm pair of arms and a blush stained his cheeks when he felt a light damp around his forehead, signali
