Eli POV. I knew exactly how Ashlynn felt, I was lied to also, and it's not a nice feeling, to have your own mate hiding things from you, and for what? I'm not going to say I'm ashamed of my work, I love my work, I did it, I knew what I was doing the whole time, but now that she's here with us, I want to come clean to her, to confess my job and make sure she's okay with that. "She's really mad at you," I tell Aspen, who just nods his head, I love him, I really do, and have been in love with him for years now. But Ashlynn is what completes us, she's our missing link and without her, we don't feel complete. "Do you think if I told her right away she wouldn't be mad? She would've just joined us here?" He asks me, although he made a point, I wasn't sure. "For wolves, it's different when I saw Ashlynn, I knew right away she's mine," I say but that kind of got him sad, he looked at me with sad eyes now. "So you forgot about me? If it's Ashlynn what you need Eli, I won't stand in the w

Eli POV. "And why are you here?" the first guy asks me, I looked at him, trying my best not to growl, or glare at him, I need them and not the other way around. "I'm here to see her," I say yet again, we've been going over this for over an hour now, I've made it to her pack, but I didn't have any access to get in yet. After I ended the call with daddy Aspen, I got on the plane as fast as possible, if he got here before he was going to tan my bum, and knowing that if I wait for him, he'd find out that Ashlynn isn't here with me, and if he finds that out, he was going to beat my bum a second time for that, I should have stayed with her or maybe just call him right away, now that I'm here not daring to use his name to gain any privilege to get in the pack, I thought using my mate's name would be enough but it clearly wasn't. "I'm here to see her," I repeat to the guy, who I still don't know his name, why did he do this, why can't they just call her siblings they know who I'm, they kn

Aspen POV. "Baby, are you there? Are you safe need me to go and get you?" I answer Eli worried about him, is he still in the airport, is he back at home? What's going on with him? "I made it to Ashy's place, but please don't be mad," he says right away, I growled, I was angry at him, but not so angry, he's safe back at Ashlynn's place, away from here. "Didn't I say to wait for me?" I say, happy that he disobeyed me for once, but also trying to say it's not okay to disobey me. "Sorry daddy, Ash is sorry too aren't you?" he says, I could hear a small hit sound and then a grunt before finally, Ash's voice came on the line. "Sorry for leaving without telling you so daddy, I was really mad at you, still am," Ashlynn says, I'm okay with her being mad at me, as long as she's talking to me and staying safe, there. "Guys," I say to them both, it's better to keep them safe, but secrets are clearly not the way to go, if we keep on hiding things from each other, we're gonna keep on fighting

Ashlynn POV. "We need to save him now!" I say worriedly, he's in danger! If rogues are taking over the city, he could end up dead any day now, I know he said not to come, but I'm not going to sit back and let my mate get hurt. "What happened!" Eli asks worried too, he didn't read the email, only I did so and I know what's waiting there. "Rogues all over the city, a war between two mafia bosses have them working for them," I say showing him the screen and the two clubs' logos, daddy's club logo! "He sent us away..." Eli says, he sent us away to keep us safe, but he's the human one between us three, he's the one who might get in trouble, who could get hurt and might die, not us! We're too far away from mortality. "We can't stay away anymore," I finish the sentence for him, we can't stay away anymore, he needs us. "We need to get going," Eli says offering me a hand, ready to leave this place and go save our mate, he needs u and we're going to go and get him."Go where, you two free

Aspen POV. "I'm gonna bite you then you'll be mine, okay?" Ashlynn asks me, we're finally in our new place, the one we just wanted to get to turn out, you can't leave the city but you can take over it. "Fine baby, I know how this goes," I assure her, she's worried about doing this, she's been worried about biting me for a month now. She does want me, but she's worried since I'm not a wolf, and I almost died from a wolf bite, her bite might kill me, but it's what kept me alive, thinking about them, my connection to them both, I don't want to die, I'll never die and leave them behind, without anyone to take care of them, they could only take care of each other for so long, they need me and I need them too, I might need them more then they need me. "Okay, but tell me if it hurt," she says getting close to my neck kissing it, licking it, marking her territory before she finally biting me, connecting our souls to each other. I could feel her inside me along with Eliot, I could feel them
