Twenty Nine – Peacekeeper
AshEmber had slept for a few hours on his lap and then woke up looking much better, aside from her embarrassment about sleeping on his lap.  After they all had lunch Leo suggested they go to the now empty training field and see what she could do now that she was a wolf as well.“I don’t think that’s a good idea…”  Ash tried to slow things down.  She just got out of hospital that morning after having her world thrown into turmoil by suddenly becoming a wolf when she had thought herself a human all these years.Ember rolled her eyes.  “I feel like I’m going to climb the walls if I don’t move or do something.”  She objected.“Great!  Let’s go!”  Leo grinned and reached for her hand, but stopped when he gave a low possessive growl.  “Come on, man!”  Leo protested indignantly and Ash glared at him.  He had a f

Thirty – Science Experiment
EmberShe was hanging like a disobedient toddler in Ash’s arms while they waited for Dr. Victor to show up.  They were talking casually as if she was not being held by Ash like she was in time out.  Only Leo would give her the occasional grin and wink.At first she had been hanging stiffly, but now she just allowed herself to relax back against Ash’s chest, resting the back of her head against his shoulder while she stared at the clouds floating by calmly.  That paired with the constant tingles dancing everywhere their bodies touched was so soothing she could almost close her eyes and sleep.She had relaxed so much that she startled and squeaked when Dr. Victor suddenly spoke beside her.  “Alright, I’ve made arrangements at the hospital so I can be there throughout her tests.  I also brought a few things in case we need it.”  He smiled at her with amusement at being startled.  Clearly these wolves

Thirty One – Worrying News 1
Alpha AnsonHe was waiting for Tom to show up at his hotel room when he got the unexpected call from the school.  He’d saved their number when he had finally found her.  He answered the phone in his usual manner, despite being confused.  Why would they phone him when she wasn’t at school?  They knew he knew it since they had also phoned him to inform him that she had been taken to the Bane pack hospital a few days ago.“Alpha Boyer, good morning.”  A very nervous voice of the headmaster came over the phone.“Good Morning.”  He answered reservedly.“I’m afraid I am the bearer of bad news once again, Alpha.  It seems that someone has broken into your child’s dorm during the night.”“Excuse me?”  He asked with a raised voice.  This academy prided themselves on the safety of their students as much as they prided themselves on their advan

Thirty One – Worrying News 2
Alpha Anson“She was also bullied in our pack.”  Anson pointed out drily.  “But it still has merit that the interest has to be more than mere teenagers dating if they called a meeting regarding her, which we can’t confirm or deny.  We can strike out the consideration that she is deathly ill as a reason, since she seemed fine in the photos I received.”“M-may I see the photos, Alpha?”  Ilene asked timidly.He watched her for a moment, considering, before he opened the message from Leo and handed his phone over to her.  She eagerly took the phone and looked intently at the pictures.“Is the future Gamma the one sitting next to her?”  She asked with interest.“That is the future alpha.”“A-are you sure, Alpha?”  She asked with a frown, while she stared at the photo.“Why?”  He asked while he watched her enlarg

Thirty Two – Annoying Brother
EmberShe was woken before dawn by Leo, but she wasn’t ready to wake up, she was still exhausted.  She groaned in protest when he started poking her cheek and swatted his hand away.“Pssst!!  Wake up, Cookie; we’re going to training.”“Go away; Alpha said my training starts tomorrow.”“Come on, Cookie; this will wake you up so well for our brunch.”“Too early for brunch.”  She groaned.Suddenly the duvet was snatched from her and she growled in annoyance.  “Up, up, Cookie.  I want my little sis to train with me.”  Leo chirped in a cheery voice.“Most annoying big brother, ever!”  She muttered and sat up groggily.  “Alright, I’m up.”“Awww!  You accepted my adoption!”  He all but squealed his excitement while he threw workout clothes on her bed next to her.  &ldq

Thirty Three – Care of a Human
AshHe was keenly aware of Ember’s every action, even when he was busy with his own training.  He was aware the moment she nodded off, cuddling her pillow like he wished she would do with him soon.  But he was not about to push her into thing she was not comfortable with.When they were done with their training it took him giving a warning glare and a low growl at Leo who had been intent on picking her up.  Leo pouted while he picked up his sweet mate who had overworked herself once again.  It was clear that he would be more than just the peacekeeper with her; she didn’t know when to stop and rest.He gently picked her up and she unconsciously cuddled closer into him.  He all but melted at how cute she was when she was unguarded.  He was worried about what to expect when the king found out about her; he hoped he would not try to take her away from him.  If he did he might actually go against the king; she was his ma

Thirty Four – Minor Setback
UnknownIt had been two days since he had ended Bernadette’s miserable existence and there had been no peep about her death.  Of course, it could be that they wanted to keep it quiet, but he had a feeling that she was not a very popular person.After he had finished his planned meetings, he had settled into his hotel room and set to researching and planning.  He took the time to research the Wood Creek Academy in detail.  His position gave him many privileges and it came in handy.He had had his personal hacker working on getting information on everything he wanted, so he was busy reviewing it on his personal laptop.  In his line of business, it was always good to have your own technology to keep business and pleasure separate.After he had done his research, he had changed into cheap jeans and hoody and left all his technology that could track him and rented a car under a fake name.  He drove two towns away from the academy

Thirty Five – Revenge
EmberShe was still unable to decide how she felt about the fact that they had been doing their research on a baby and toddler website.  It was funny and annoying realizing that they thought she had to be cared for like a toddler.  But they were high school boys and she couldn’t really fault them for caring, even if it was a completely dumb way to do it.  Their complete ignorance about humans was a little endearing; she had to admit that.She undid the crown braid when she stepped into the bathroom; she would have to wash her hair after that morning’s training.  She had a feeling that today’s training was a taste of what was to come.  She was nervous about that, since she had never been a particularly athletic person.“We’ll figure things out, don’t worry.”  Lume offered with a smile.“It’s really strange having someone else in my head.”  She a

Thirty Six – Surprise Attack
AshLeo joined them with a satisfied smirk on his face while they waited in front of the pack house to meet their guests.  The king’s car had already passed through the border and would be the first of their guests to arrive.  Ember’s guardian was now at the border being admitted.“Where’s Ember?”  He asked in a low voice.“She should be here any moment.  I heard her come out of the bathroom just before I came down.”  Leo grinned at him.“I just know you did something to annoy her again.”  He answered, while staring at Leo with narrowed eyes.Oliver chuckled. “That’s nothing new; I’ve forgotten how many times you’ve all gotten into trouble because of him.”  His father muttered with a hint of amusement in his tone.“I am the picture of innocence, Alpha.”  Leo answered with a tone of dignity.

Thirty Seven - Brunch
EmberShe felt overwhelmed with everyone looking at her the way they were.  Beta Tom grinned and winked at her like he always did when they met, but she still clung to Ash’s hand like it was her lifeline.His touch soothed her and her wolf and she desperately needed some calm or she would be running and hiding in her temporary room where she could feel alone and safe.  She was not in control of the situation and everyone’s attention on her was so uncomfortable it felt like her skin was prickling.Before Calum and Ilene could approach her, Luna Cindy suggested they head to the dining room where everyone could be comfortable; obviously she had sensed the tension in the air.  It was perfect timing since Ember was about to run away with the king, the queen, Alpha Anson and Beta Tom staring at her like she was some kind of math problem to solve.Ember was grateful when the three guys stayed at her side and Ash didn’t seem to mi
