“Eric?” I asked him, confused.
“Hey Buttercup. Or should I say Queen Buttercup?” He greeted me. I would have given him a hug, but he was naked and had a deep scratch on his chest.
“How the hell are you here?” I asked him, stunned that he smelt like a rogue. He was a warrior for Blue Moon.
“I fucked up.” He told me.
“We have some time, and you need to explain. And I’ll help heal that scratch on your chest.” I told him. I pooled some saliva in my palm and pressed it into his chest, making him groan.
“Couldn’t make that hurt any less, huh?” He winced.
“Yeah, I don’t think I can. But now you need to explain.” I told him. I removed my hand, and I noticed that the skin was closing up.
I noticed Sage had all our wolves heading south. So I turned my attention to Emmett.
“Can you make sure that everyone follows us?” I told him. He looked between Eric and I.
“It’s okay. I trust this one with my life.” I patted Emmett on the chest. He nodded and walked to the back of the group.
I was leading the group over to where Sage and her group were walking. Eric was beside me and I still couldn’t believe that he was now a rogue.
“So start explaining, Mister.” I told him and he sighed.
“I found my mate.” He started.
“That’s great.” I exclaimed, looking over at him. I found him frowning.
“Not good?” I asked him and he shook his head.
“I felt her cheating on me, and I walked in on her sleeping with her ex.” He told me.
“Eric, I’m so sorry to hear that.” I said, wrapping an arm around his waist in a side hug.
“I killed him and they then forced me out of the pack.” He finished.
“What happened to her?” I asked him, curious.
“Nothing. Last I heard, she was still there.” He answered, and I was shocked.
“How the hell can that even happen?” I asked him and he shrugged.
“It helps when your parents are on good terms with the alpha.” He said, and I stopped in my tracks.
“Alpha Ian?” I asked him. He turned around to look at me.
“No, his father. My mate was his Gamma’s daughter.” He said. We started walking again, but I was furious.
“That’s fucken bullshit!” I growled out.
“I agree, but there’s nothing I can do about it,” Eric said, sounding defeated.
“After this is done, you are coming back to Silver Moon with me. You are an amazing warrior and you didn’t deserve to be thrown out of your pack for something that anyone would have done.” I told him.
“Thank you, Buttercup.” He said, giving me a side hug as we walked. Lead Warrior Emmett jogged up to us and I wish all the wolves weren’t fucken naked. I’ve seen enough dicks to last me a lifetime.
“Did you say Alpha Ian?” He asked me, falling into step with Eric and I.
“Yes, why?” I asked him.
“He’s working with your mates.” And as soon as those words left his lips, I was ready to explode.
“What?” I growled out.
“Yeah, he was running one squad.” He continued.
“Buttercup, what’s wrong?” Eric asked me. The fury I was feeling inside made me want to make everything explode. I had to take some deep breaths.
How could they trust Ian more than they trust me? I’m their mate, the one carrying their goddamn child. Not that they knew that, but still.
“Nothing.” I shook my head and continued to walk out of the clearing. We got everyone rounded up and under the cover of the trees. The sun was setting, and I knew we had to figure something out.
“Sage, can we portal if they can remember where the camp is?” I asked her.
“Ashlyn, there are too many of them for just me,” She answered.
“Then, I’ll help. We need to get back before the sun set.” I told her.
“I don’t want you getting hurt.”
“I’m fine, Sage. We have bigger problems to worry about right now. But I wish I could change back to my normal clothes and where the hell did my backpack go?” I asked her and she shrugged.
“Just will it.” Tundra said beside me. And I could hear people in the group gasping at my talking wolf.
“She talks?” Eric stuttered out.
“This is Tundra. She is my wolf. I can just will her outside of my body.” I told him.
“But how?” Emmett and Dylan asked, stunned. I noticed Dylan was all healed up.
“One peck of being a hybrid.” I said.
“She’s gold.” Eric said, staring at Tundra.
“She used to be white.” I said before I closed my eyes and focused on the clothes I was wearing before and my backpack. When I opened them again, I was now in my original clothes and I was wearing my backpack.
“Oh, thank the goddess.” I breathed out. Slipping off my backpack, I kneeled down to unzip it. I pulled out my anti-nausea meds and Sage handed me a bottle of water.
“How are you feeling?” She knelt down beside me. I was just drinking the pill down with some water.
“I’m okay.” I told her and she nodded.
“Dylan, are you able to picture the camp so Sage and I can open a portal?” I asked him, standing back up.
“I can do that, my Queen,” he answered.
“I need all of our warriors to protect the others until we can explain what is going on. I don’t want anyone getting hurt,” I commanded.
“The Queen and I will be the last to walk through the portal,” Sage spoke.
“Ashlyn, I’m going to take Dylan’s hand. I will open the portal. I will only use your magic when it becomes too much for me.” She told me. I pushed my lips in a line. I knew why she was doing it that way, but I still wasn’t happy about it.
Sage took Dylan’s hand, and she opened a portal into the middle of the camp. I instructed some of our warriors to go first and then some others to go after. Eric and Emmett stood beside me.
We were about halfway done with the people we had collected, and I noticed Sage was struggling. She was a powerful witch, but even she had her limits. Grabbing her hand, I willed my power into her. My body glowed white as my magic transferred into her.
Eric and Emmett urge the others to walk through faster. And soon, all fifty of them were through the portal. Now it was Sage and my turn to step through. We were both exhausted. We both stepped through hand in hand, and the portal immediately closed behind us.
I turned away from Sage and threw up the water and the pill that was supposed to help me not throw up. Sage rubbed my back. She leaned down to whisper to me.
“You used too much.”
“I used what we needed.” I grumbled out. Just then, a woman and a few men approached us. I could smell Derek on her, and Tundra let out a growl that shook the earth. She was growling and baring her teeth at the woman that smelled like her mate.
“Call off your wolf.” She called out, crossing her arms over her chest. I stood back up, glaring at her.
“That’s not how you speak to your Queen.” I spoke and her face immediately fell.
“Now, if you don’t want her to rip you apart, I suggest you wash her mate’s scent off of your fucken body.” I growled out. Sage grabbed my arm and Emmett, Dylan, and Eric were standing behind me.
“You brought the enemy into our camp.” She growled. And I was about to lose my shit. My body glowed white, and I was now standing in my dress, wearing my crown. The men standing around her all bowed, but she just stared me down.
Tundra was pacing in front of me, pissed about the blatant disrespect this dragon bitch was showing us.
“Do you honestly think you could win against a dragon, little wolf?” She smirked. And Sage stepped in front of me.
“Where are Derek and Mason?” She called out.
“They went searching for their bitch of a mate,” she called back. I moved out from behind Sage.
“Too bad you fucken found her.” I growled out.
“Chantel, stand the fuck down.” Dylan growled out. So this fucken bitch is Chantel.
It took everything in me to control the pressure that was building in my chest. The wind picked up, and the ground shook.
“Ashlyn, I need you to calm down!” I heard Sage yelling at me, but all I saw was red. Fire engulfed my body as I walked away from my group towards Chantel. The warriors that were beside her were now falling back. Chantel looked at me in horror as I approached her.
“Who the fuck am I?” I growled out. Tundra was now beside me, baring her teeth. The air was moving around us so fast that it was like we were standing in a tornado.
“Queen.” She eventually breathed out and bowed her head. The air stopped moving around us and the surrounding flames slowly died down. There was a small creek flowing a few yards away from us. I forced the water over to me and dropped it over Chantel.
“If you ever smell like Derek again, I won’t hesitate to let Tundra rip you apart.”
Ashlyn
Nathan came running over to me while I stared down at this bitch of a dragon. I was furious with my mates. They seem to trust everyone but me. This was my destiny. This is what my gifts were for, and they just hid me away.
I looked behind me and noticed that the group Sage and I arrived with were all kneeling. Even the warriors that Chantel came over with were kneeling.
“Ashlyn, are you okay? We have been so worried about you?” Nathan breathed out.
“I’m fine, Nathan. Where are my fucken mates?” I growled out and even Tundra let out a growl.
“They are out looking for you. Liam called and told us you and Sage weren’t at home when he arrived back.” He explained, while I walked back to my group.
I willed my clothes back, and I changed back into my regular clothes with my backpack on. I slid my backpack off and dug through it until I found my phone. I knew they had cellular reception. I pulled it out to notice that I had about 100 missed calls and texts. When I unlocked my phone, I called Mason. He picked it up after the first ring.
“Ashlyn, where the hell are you?” He yelled into the phone.
“I’m at the camp outside of Emerald Lake. Where the hell are you?” I asked him calmly. He didn’t answer, and I knew he was probably thinking about what he should say that wouldn’t immediately piss me off.
