“Mason, what the hell is wrong with you?” I yelled, noticing he was crying.
“Ashlyn. Where’s Ashlyn?” He finally gasped out.
“Ashlyn left, Mason. You rejected her.” I told him and he broke down. I wish Brandon were here to help me with this mess.
“Brandon, I need you back here.” I yelled into my phone.
“I’ll be there soon.” He said before hanging up. I turned my attention back to a broken Mason.
“What the hell did I do?” He asked, but I think he was asking himself more than me.
“Brandon should be here soon and then we can talk about everything that happened?” I told him. And just then a portal opened in our living room, making me jump out of my fucken skin. Brandon and a blonde girl stepped into the living room and the portal closed.
“The dark magic is fading.” She said.
Beta Brandon
Liam called me while we were waiting for Ashlyn in the hospital. The doctor informed us she had indeed suffered a miscarriage and that she would heal after some rest.
I was anxious about Ashlyn’s mental state. She suffered rejection and the loss of her child all in one day. And her powers ran on her emotions. This situation just went from bad to worse, but hopefully she can keep it together.
On the call with Liam, I could hear Mason screaming and crying in pain. He even asked for Ashlyn, what the hell was going on there? I hung up the phone and turned to speak with Sage.
“Can you open up a portal back to Silver Moon?” I asked her.
“Yes, but why?” She asked, furrowing her eyebrows.
“Mason is in pain somehow, and I’m not sure why. Liam is with him now, but I think I should be there.” I explained. And she agreed. She wanted to test the dark magic that was surrounding him.
I asked Dragon Prince Derek to keep Ashlyn safe while we were gone. I wasn’t sure what was going on, but we needed to fix this. We thought the war hadn’t started yet, but I think it’s already upon us.
I thought of our apartment and Sage opened a portal into the living room where Mason and Liam were sitting. The portal closed behind us and Liam was staring at us in shock. Mason looked like a complete mess.
“The dark magic is leaving him,” Sage stated.
“But how?” I asked her.
“I’m not sure. Were they both marked?” She asked.
“Yes.” I told her and she was clearly thinking about what was going on.
“Brandon, where did you go? Who is this?” Liam exclaimed.
“I went to make sure Ashlyn was safe. Dragon Prince Derek is with her. And this is Sage, Ashlyn’s friend.” I told him.
“But she’s a witch,” he commented, and Sage rolled her eyes at him.
Sage sat down beside Mason. He was resting his head in his hands, sobbing. I’ve never seen my friend so broken. When Sage touched Mason’s arm, her eyes turned white, and it was like she was in a trance.
“What the hell is happening?” Liam exclaimed, looking at me, panicked. And I shrugged. This was all new to me, too.
Sage came out of her trance within a minute and was panting.
“Sage, what happened?” I asked, while sitting on the coffee table in front of her.
“Her pain broke the magic. I can’t explain it. I’ve never seen this before. The spell that was cast over Mason and the other girl was strong. It was strong enough to make him forget about the bond he shared with Ashlyn. But the pain of his rejection and her miscarriage broke it.” She explained. And Mason’s head shot up.
“Miscarriage?” He screamed. And I had to look at the pain in my friend’s eyes.
“Your rejection was so painful that her wolf had to decide about who she could heal. She chose Ashlyn and her body rejected the pregnancy.” Sage explained, and it devastated Mason.
“I killed our baby.” He whispered.
“It’s not your fault, Mason.” I told him, but he just kept shaking his head.
“Brandon is right, Mason. The magic that was surrounding you was strong. I can’t believe that Ashlyn could break it. But it wasn’t your fault. Someone powerful didn’t want the two of you to be together.” Sage explained.
“Where is Ashlyn?” Mason cried. And I couldn’t blame him. The look on Ashlyn’s face when she knew what was happening was devastating.
“She’s safe, but I think it’s best that, as of right now, you don’t see her. She is heartbroken right now,” Sage told Mason.
“But I need her and she needs me.” He tried to say, but Sage just shook her head.
“She needs time right now. It may have been the magic that was controlling your actions, but those actions still broke her. Seeing you may break her entirely, and then we would all be screwed.” Sage explained, but I could see that it was hard for Mason to comprehend.
“Can I at least talk to her?” He begged. It was hard for me to see such a powerful man beg for anything.
“How about we focus on getting the people responsible for this? You need to rest and so does she.” Sage told him.
“How am I ever going to sleep knowing that I killed my unborn pup?” He stuttered with tears in his eyes. “That I broke my mate.” He cried.
“I can help you with the sleeping part, and when Ashlyn is ready, I’ll explain the spell that was placed on you. But right now, she needs to mourn.” Sage said, patting Mason on the back and he nodded.
Mason led Sage into his room and not long after, she was back out in the living room with us. She informed us he was fast asleep and should be out all night.
“What do we do now?” Liam asked, and it was Sage that answered with her plan.
“Do any of you know this woman?” She asked. And we both nodded.
“Then get her here. I don’t care how. I will cast a spell around this room to entrap her and we will get the answers that we need. She killed the future heir of the throne and she almost killed the Luna Queen. However, she was involved. She still conspired to kill the Luna Queen and she would not get away with almost killing my friend.” She told us and we both nodded.
The phone was on the floor under the coffee table. I unlocked it to find texts from Amber. She wouldn’t be suspicious if I texted her on his phone. I told her I (Mason) needed to see her and that I’d (Mason) would have Brandon meet her in the building foyer.
She texted back right away saying she’d be here in 10 minutes and that she loved him. I’ve never hit a woman, but I wanted to kill Amber in the worst possible way because of the way she hurt my friends, our Queen and King.
I handed the phone to Sage so she could read the texts and headed over to the elevator.
“I’ll be right back with Amber. You two get ready. And Liam, make sure that there are some warriors standing by. Regardless of what she tells us, she will still be taken into custody.” I told them, hopping into the elevator, they both nodded and the doors closed.
I was feeling anxious when the elevator doors opened on the main floor. I couldn’t wrap my head around the fact that Amber would be involved in something like this. She was so sweet in high school; she showed no interest in Mason romantically. It just made little sense.
Amber strolled into the pack house about 10 minutes later, dressed to perfection as always.
“Brandon!” she exclaimed, giving me a hug. And it was hard to fake it. We walked over to the elevator and it was already waiting for us to head up to our floor.
“Thank you for meeting me, Brandon. I was so worried that Mason would not want to see me. I was so relieved that he texted me.” She babbled. And it took a lot for me not to roll my eyes.
