Ashlyn went inside the house and immediately grab something from the kitchen Vladimir wasn’t sure what to do since she moved fast. As Ashlyn managed to get her ice cream, she immediately headed upstairs which he was not sure if he should follow.
“Go ahead, Jace told me what happened.” Luna Serenity pushed him a little which made him sigh in worry.
“Are you sure?” Vladimir wondered.
“Aren’t you mates?” she asked while her smile never flattered. It was like she knew something.
“But I’m a vampire and she’s a wolf…” he pointed out but she just shook her head.
“We’re not living in the past, are we? Just go be with her and how can I not trust you…” she said and ever pulled Vladimir into her arms before whi
Ashlyn was watching over the bed of what her surveillance captured around the area where Tosh was being captured lurking around their pack recently. She was noting down mentally what she was seeing surprisingly while just watching the footage. “You’re using it.” Vladimir commented as soon as he entered Ashlyn’s bedroom after a knock. “Using what?” Ashlyn wondered what he was talking about. “Your ability.” He just simply answered as he put down the tray of food that Ashlyn would like to eat for her midnight snack. “Ability?” she wondered. “Hm, seems like you subconsciously use it without having a hard time dealing with some headaches.” He briefly answered which made Ashlyn glare curiously at him.
Ashlyn’s heart began to flutter when she heard that from her mate but when she heard Vladimir’s giggles, she have to punch his shoulder a little bit hard but not the usual strength when she punches his face. “You are indeed a violent woman.” Vladimir teased while he was rubbing his arm that had been punched. “Shut up and let’s head out.” Ashlyn rolled her eyes as she get up from the bed and looked one more time at the monitor of her computer. Before shutting it down completely. “Go ahead. I’ll just meet you there since I have to put this on the sink.” Vladimir said while he put back on the tray his beloved’s dirty dishes. “Fine and I need my Mom while discussing that. So, hurry up.” Ashlyn firmly said to him.
“Vlad?” Ashlyn called the attention of her mate when she noticed the silence radiating around Vladimir upon what he just heard. “Sorry, I’m just thinking and connecting the dots.” Vladimir snapped from his deep thought and smiled at them. “Can we hear them? We might be able to help you with them.” Luna Serenity kindly asked Vladimir to share it since they might be able to help him connect it easily. “Alright, we understood his sorrowful and tragic past with his mates. We already knew that it triggered his addiction to sex ever since he lost his first mate due to his father belittling what love can do. We already could understand that part.” Vladimir nodded and started sharing what he had already in mind. “It connects what he’s been doing with the omegas lately. I mea
“Okay, if you say so…” Vladimir glanced over his side to check on Ashlyn who was staring silently over the window causing the silence in their drive. “But what do you want to ask while we’re on the road?” he decided to cut the silence and let the serious conversation started. At first, Ashlyn didn’t speak as if she was lost in her own thoughts but when she sigh, she started talking. “I’m thinking about Tosh…I suddenly got curious about what you said earlier…why did he fall drastically just now? What made him fall deeply just now and why not before when he lost his first mate?” Ashlyn answered by telling Vladimir what was bothering her mind ever since they went on discovering a little about Tosh's past that her father knew about. “You?” A
As they went off the ice cream parlor, Ashlyn was totally steaming in anger and jealousy - she was just pissed off in general once again. Her emotions were haywire whenever it comes to Vladimir who was watching and sensing her in silence while finishing his ice cream. “So, where’s your company?” Vladimir decided to cut the silence between them while they were walking down the city street. “Oh, just across the street corner in front of the cafe.” Ashlyn just answered without emotion in her tone. “There?” Vladimir sighed and looked for what Ashlyn said before he pointed out the exact location of her company. “Yeah, let’s go.” Ashlyn nodded when she looked over what Vladimir was pointing at. “Lead the way.” V
Ashlyn noticed that there was something that Nisha wanted to say but seems like she could not utter those words just yet. She looked over at Vladimir and he knew that Ashlyn wanted to know what was running inside Nisha’s mind. He nodded and tried to read Nisha like an open book. ‘What is this strange pull with them? I know boss Ashlyn. I always looked at and admire her as my boss but whenever she kept an eye on me. I feel something strange…she was like a mother to me…ideal maybe? But I know it was more than just ideal…now that she holds me earlier…why do I feel safe?’ “Kim, she’s feeling something strange between you two…” Vladimir mind-linked to Ashlyn who smiled before she let go of the hand of Nisha and went back to finishing her meal. ‘I just meet Vladimir but when he stood up to p
Taking some ice cream with a newfound friend or maybe something more, Ashlyn can’t help herself but to watched Nisha carefully. She even wiped the remaining ice cream over the corner of Nisha’s lips before she giggles like an innocent child of Ashlyn. “What?” Ashlyn asked when she heard the innocent giggle Nisha that she kinda like hearing and made her smile. “Nothing, I just never thought our lady boss has her warmness that she’s hiding.” Nisha was smiling when she answered while she was eating her choco-mint ice cream with mixed nuts. “What do you mean about that, Nisha?” Vladimir wondered as he came back with two bottled water with him. “Well, Mom is a bit cold and firm whenever she’s working with us and nobody could say no to her. Whatever she said
Another day to start but between Ashlyn and Vladimir their days start off in a very strong way. Vladimir was being thrown upside down to the backyard garden within the pack house. Ashlyn was totally pissed yet the smirk on Vladimir’s face was not fading. She groaned irritatedly and went on attacking Vladimir with her strong fists and kicks. Yet, none of them were reaching his face. “C’MON, LET ME HIT JUST ONE TIME.” Ashlyn shouted as she kept trying on giving every combo that she could muster while attacking Vladimir but nothing was happening. “Nope. You already did once so, yeah, not gonna happen. You already hit my face so, no.” Vladimir smirked as he block or dodged whatever kind of attack Ashlyn was giving him. “ARGH!!!” Ashlyn was frustrated and made Vladimir
