“Ashlyn?” He called from the kitchen.
“I just need to get some clothes from my room.” Before entering my old room, I called to him. I closed the door behind me and walked over to the closet to get dressed.
I found some dark skinny jeans, and I paired them with a dark purple cami and a black 3/4 sleeve cardigan. I grabbed some socks and my white sneakers. After getting dressed, I walked into the bathroom to do my hair. I did more of a side part, wrapping it up into a hair clip.
I noticed that Derek’s mark had already healed. It was a tiara, overlapping a crown with flames coming out of the middle of it. Tundra’s name and the name Magnus circled the bottom. I’m assuming Magnus is Derek’s dragon.
“Tundra, are you happy?”
“I am, Ashlyn. I know this is all strange, a wolf claiming a dragon, but I love them both.”
“Why has his mark healed already?”
“Now that we have released our powers, you will heal much faster. You can also heal with your saliva.”
Weird, I thought.
When I finished getting ready, I walked out into the living room and entered the kitchen. Mason, Derek, and Matt were all sitting around the table. Matt got up while I sat down between Mason and Derek. He returned to the table with a mug of coffee and a plate of muffins.
I took a sip of coffee and a bite of the muffin and moaned. The boys started laughing.
“How?” I asked Matt, with a mouthful of chocolate chip oatmeal muffin.
“How what?” He asked me.
“How the hell do you make them taste so good?” I asked him before sipping my coffee.
“It’s a secret.” He winked. And I pushed my lips into a line.
“Of course it is.” I groaned, making him laugh.
“How much is Derek paying you?” I asked him.
“What?” Derek asked.
“Not enough. Why?” Matt laughed.
“I have a proposal for you,” I told him.
“A proposal?” He raised an eyebrow.
“Baby, what are you doing?” Mason asked. But I ignored his question.
“It will triple your current salary.” I told him, pecking at his interest. He shifted in his chair, looking at Derek, and then back at me.
“And what do I have to do?” He questioned.
“All you’ll need to do is make me coffee and muffins.” I told him matter-of-factly.
“Baby girl, you don’t even know how much he makes and you’re willing to pay him more to make coffee and muffins for you?” Derek asked me, and I nodded.
“Oh, you would also be one of my personal bodyguards. So I’ll pay you triple your current salary to make me coffee and muffins. And to keep me alive.” I explained.
“Actually, that sounds like a great idea,” Mason commented. And Derek sighed.
“It does.” Derek agreed.
“Great, so what do you say Matt, do we have a deal?” I asked him.
“Yes, my Queen.” He answered, and I groaned.
“Every time you call me Queen, I get to keep 20 bucks.” I told him and he laughed.
“Yes, ma’am.” He winked, and I rolled my eyes.
“That’s worse!” I exclaimed, and they all laughed.
I was three muffins in and on my second mug of coffee when Liam walked out of his room. He greeted us, but walked over to the elevator.
“Where are you off to?” I asked him.
“Out.” He answered.
“Well, I’ll go with you,” I offered.
“Why?” He asked.
“Why not? And besides, we need to stick together and I wanted to speak to you.” I told him, and Mason squeezed my thigh.
“Fine.” Liam grumbled.
“Yay!” I jumped from my seat. I kissed both Mason and Derek. Matt also stood up with me.
“Matt, it’s your day off.” I told him before I ran to my room to get my purse. I walked back out into the living room to meet Liam. The elevator was waiting.
“We’ll be back. If you need me, mindlink or call Liam. I don’t know what I did with my phone.” I said to them before the doors closed.
“Why are you here, Ashlyn?” Liam asked, annoyed.
“I wanted to hang out with you.” I told him, a little hurt by his tone.
“Why?” He asked, confused.
“Why not? Are we not friends?” I asked him.
“Yeah.” He sighed.
“You want to tell me what’s bothering you?” I asked him, giving him a side hug. The elevator dinged, and the doors opened up to the main floor. Liam led me over to the dining room.
Liam
Ashlyn
We found a seat in the dining room, and Liam went to order some food for himself. I was full of muffins and coffee, so I just took a seat. I waited until he came back with a tray of food and was already eating before I spoke.
“Can we swing by the doctors before we head off to wherever you are going?” I asked him nervously. He stopped eating and looked at me.
