;Abandoned territory;

Pov: Aylean

A week had passed since I escaped, and my leg finally healed. Perks of being a werewolf. Asher and Davion have been visiting me throughout the week.

I stood up and walked up to the scattered clothes on the floor, I quickly changed into a black crossed bathing suit. I glanced at where I slept and pulled back my brown hair into a ponytail.

Because of my injured leg I couldn't have a normal bath or shower for a week. I pulled on a plain olive coloured t-shirt and some dark grey sweatpants, then walked over to the cave entrance.

Seriously Again?

Yeah, yeah I know. Even then we still can't do anything about it. You know he technically has another mate.

Satin whimpered in my head and growled, she and I were still angry about the entire encounter with Aztec, and it was going to take awhile for us to get over it.

Anyways I'm just going to take a shower, what do you think of the idea?

Yeah.

Satin wagged her tail in my head happily and I smiled at the joyful she-wolf in my head.

I sighed and grabbed my backpack then walked out of the cave entrance. I smiled at the fresh breeze blowing gently at my face.

"So what is the plan?" A voice echoed through the forest.

My eyes widened and I quickly hid in the nearby bushes, I crouched down as I listened quietly.

Who the heck is here?

"I don't know we promised Aly that we won't do anything" Another voice said, I furrowed my brows together. A voice that I recognised as my brothers

Davion and Asher, what the heck are they talking about?

Just as I thought, the two men emerged from the thicket of the woods, both looked deep in thought. I masked my pheromones and continued to listen to their conversation.

"Well we can't just let that Alpha to continue to hunt her down" Asher said. They both winced, most likely from the pheromones in this territory.

"Can we hurry up and get into the cave?" Davison basically begged.

I mean it's good that they're getting along, but what plan are they talking about?

Satin suggested.

Maybe.

"I would love to, but Luna is there and she would question us" Asher sighed.

Well it's a little too late for that.

Satin grumbled.

Shh Satin I'm trying to listen.

"That's true. Okay, but thank about it Asher. What the heck can we do? His pack is literally the first in the ranks it's a miracle that she's even alive right now." Davison whispered.

I chewed the inside of my lip.

So it is Aztec. Why are they talking behind my back?

"I don't know, but it's not okay that he kidnapped Luna, even if they are mates. We have to do something about it." Asher explained, they both scanned the area uncomfortably. Then they both made eye contact.

"We will talk more about this when Luna is asleep, I have to get back to my mates. My mate might deliver any day now." Asher said as he gulped "And plus this place is hurting a lot, I don't want to be here any longer because of the strong pheromones" he added.

Davison nodded in agreement and they both separated ways.

The two didn't know my leg finally healed, so when Davion called Asher inside the cave it wasn't a surprise.

What are the planning?

I bit my lip and stood up.

I'll figure it out later. I need to shower anyway.

Oh shush. No it's not I will not be swimming in the waterfall.

I rolled my eyes, and chose to ignore my wolf as I carefully walked out of my hiding spot and began walking to the waterfall.

On my way to the waterfall I racked my braid of when the two men were talking about, and when the heck they were trying to scheme behind my back.

Satin whimpered, and I raised a brow.

No.

Satin growled. I chuckled lightly, sometimes the wolf in my head scared me.

Jeez calm down. Seriously.

Mhm. I bet you when you see our mate again you will surely begin drooling all over him.

Satin scoffed and I smirked.

Mhm. Sure you won't.

Whatever you say Satin. I'm still not going to submit to him.

Yeah I definitely agree with that, let's see how tough the first Alpha in the rankings really is.

I smirked and Satin wagged her tail in my head. At least we agreed on one thing with Aztec.

Satin and I will not be submitting without a fight.

I don't think they will. They both know how we get when we're angry.

Wrong. Davison knows we're an Alpha.

'Luna where are you?' Asher's mind-link echoed my thoughts and I slowed my pace for a moment. The man sounded worried and I smiled.

'Stop worrying so much Asher.' I replied simply.

'But your leg is injured Luna, how am I not supposed to be worried!?' Asher panicked and I sighed.

'My leg healed. Calm down Asher, I will be back soon.' I rolled my eyes.

'But what if-' Asher began but I cut him off.

'No. I will be fine, you worry about your pregnant mate Emilia, and not your Luna right now. I am fully healed. You don't have to worry.' I scolded him.

'Alright. As you wish Luna' Asher said and I cut off the mind-link from there.

Jeez. I know I may seem like an Omega, but I'm not helpless.

I rolled my eyes and continued on my journey.

When I finally got the waterfall, I set my backpack on the sandy edge and pulled off my shirt and sweatpants, leaving my in my black crossed bikini.

I neatly folded my clothes and set it on my backpack, I then crouched down and grabbed shampoo & conditioner along with a towel from my backpack.

That I may or not have stolen from Ivory pack when I was leaving.

"Yes I can finally take a shower" I mumbled to myself, as I set the towel on top of my backpack.

I waded into the pool of water underneath the waterfall, and as I got closer the waterfall.

The echoes and the raging water rumbled the perfectly still woods as I got closer, the rocks beneath my feet complete still.

I carefully stepped up the waterfall and let out a deep breath.

Yes?

I rolled my eyes and shut Satin out as she complained in my head.

I stepped underneath the waterfall, I hissed at the ice cold water hitting my skin and head.

After adjusting a little to the icy waters I closed my eyes as the water lightly patted my head.

•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~••~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•

I finally finished my shower and dried myself off. I pulled on my shirt and sweatpants and wrapped my towel around my wet swimsuit.

I took in a deep breath and pulled my backpack over my shoulder then headed back to the cave.

I don't know. Let's hope they don't go against orders and get themselves killed.

True, but do you really think he respects Alistair?

Exactly.

I walked up to the cave and just as I was about to walk in I heard shuffling feet walking out, I quickly hid as Asher & Davion walked out.

"Okay. I wolf tell Luna" Asher said as he walked out.

Won't tell me what?

I masked my scent.

"I still can't get used to you calling Aly it's weird" David chuckled "Also. That is a very bad idea, Aylean will find out, she's not blind. When she Olaf is in motion we will tell her."

"We'll I'm going to go. Tell Luna I visited too. I don't want her to get upset that I didn't come visit her, but I miss my mates" Asher said then he walked away.

Davion nodded and walked into the cave.

What are you two boys Scheming?
