Aislyn turned quickly back to Zane, “It was me, wasn’t it?” she whispered. “I hurt him?”Zane gave her a hardened look.“That’s why you called me a bitch in the club, isn’t it?” she questioned, sure that he wouldn’t reply. “You were just trying to protect your brother, right?” she swallowed. Zane nodded once, careful to see where this would go. “Well you should know, I loved him. The wolf. My… wolf,” Aislyn assured Zane for good measure. “Did he tell you why he bothered being with me at all… when he returned to you?” Aislyn cleared her throat, trying to keep her emotions at bay. Zane shook his head, fully expecting Aislyn to keep going she figured. “Great.” Aislyn shook her head. “So he was just done then? He didn’t lo… care for me?”“I wouldn’t know,” Zane assured her. “But you are a human and he had no business being out with you.”“Why do you then?” Aislyn spat. “Why do any of you mingle with us?”Aislyn could almost feel the lie ready to escape him and so she waved him off.

Making it to the door proved to be harder than she thought it would be. What if no one was there? What if it was her mind playing tricks on her like it had in the past?Despite how tense these feelings made her feel, Aislyn still reached her door, awkwardly promising she was there and coming. Somehow, while unlocking each of her deadbolts, the metal clack and heaviness receding into the door felt like strikes against their relationship. Was she really keeping him out with these? Was he always trying to get in and back to her?“Just one more,” she promised and swung open the door to find her wolf sitting in the hallway holding an animal in his mouth. It was like old times, him giving her food, or something that would matter to her because it came from him.

Aislyn watches carefully as Earl waves Zane off, already sensing tension in the Zane’s proximity.“I thought you said you were brothers; always looking out for his best intentions,” she pushed out the moment she locked up behind the werewolf in question.“Pack life isn’t the easiest,” he assured her. “There’s always some that slip through the cracks… or run off into a human’s arms.”“I’m glad he did,” Aislyn murmured her reply.The Alpha beside her grunted, then corrected his posture. He slicked back his hair, then itched at his stubble. She could feel his eyes everywhere but on his brother and that was concerning

===== Derek ===== He wants to pull her in and tell her everything but even his ability to stave off the pain in his leg is waning. A soft pat from lifting and dropping his tail tells her to stop but it doesn’t feel like enough. Derek’s body, his wolf, they’re absolutely drained. Not even his Beta wants to get up now and that’s saying a lot. “Keep him steady,” Earl managed to get out as he inserted the tip of his blade to wedge the offending metal against the soft tissue there. “Careful Ais,” Earl hushed Derek’s love, making him wonder just what was going on back there. “G-goddess-ss help m-my love…” she whispered, trembling. “What’s wrong with her?” I whine to my brother. “I think she’s having a panic attack,” Zane answered. “Earl is almost done.” He can’t help the way his stomach turns in knots due to her response to him. ‘Is she okay?” he questions, avoiding his own issue. “I need her to be okay,” Derek continued to cry out. “Do you still have that bowl handy?” Earl

“Don’t make this about you,” Aislyn spat which brought unease back into the apartment, tenfold. “The Alpha of your pack. The one that has to look over everyone? Does that ring a bell?” Zane tossed the nozzle out the window, letting the water pour down it as it went out with a clank. “Don’t attempt to know what you don’t, little girl.” “Or what? You’ll what? I’d love to hear it!” Aislyn challenged and Zane snarled. “I’ll bet that you’re used to getting your way; that everyone listened to you, gave you their full attention until this wolf came into your life.” Zane’s shoulders tensed and he rolled his neck along them. “You…” “I’ll bet,” she interrupted Zane once more, “that you helped him become who he is. He’s the wolf that snuck out for a chance at something better.” Derek’s heart felt like it was only beating faster at the mention of what she thought his life truly was. “He’s the one you couldn’t control, and that’s why you hate me!” Aislyn growled. “It’s not because I’m

Ailsyn’s admission brought on waves of bullshit from his brother who knowingly pressed Derek through his comments to her. “Hey, Aislyn?” Zane would start nearly every conversation with. “Not right now, Zane,” Aislyn would respond, regardless of his status over them. “You know I out rank that response,” Zane chuckled, expecting better. “To your pack,” she answered, making Derek shake his collar out. It was a warning that went silenced. Zane wasn’t having it and Derek, well, his status meant that he had to hold tight and listen anyway. Aislyn glanced at her wolf and sighed, “I’m not part of your pack, Zane. If anything, you’re intruding on ours.” It was as if she knew. Maybe she did. Maybe she knew his real identity, but how? “You’re hilarious,” Zane replied, with not even a bit of mirth left in his being. “Glad you’re enjoying yourself,” Aislyn nipped. “How do you even know if that’s what you two are?” Zane pushed and Aislyn dropped her head back to rest on her shoulde

“Relax, won’t you baby?” The tall Alpha replied, rolling his sleeves as he stepped into the light. “I understand you’re here to see me.” “Who the f…” Aislyn began questioning Zane only to be cut off. “This is Guy, the Alpha of the Silverback pack here in the city,” Zane introduced him. Derek growls at the thought of that bastard touching his mate. “Can you tell your dog to behave?” Guy chuckled at the attempt to warn her. “Don’t be rude to my mate,” Aislyn replied evenly. Derek wanted to turn around and hold her against him for that. “Real cute, sweetheart,” Guy countered, “but you still wear my mark baby.” Aislyn’s anger cycled through her once more, deeper this time, but before she could speak up, Guy thanked Zane for her return. “Your pack won’t be subject to our wrath,” he said, “So long as you stay off of my land.” What? Derek growled. Angerier still with Zane. “You,” he spoke to Aislyn directly, “didn’t think I wouldn’t raise hell for my little mate’s return,

The forest is unusually still, even while it’s so full of life, of threats… of her. It’s oddly terrifying to be back and unsettled in this unnatural way. The forest was a place of peace, even before he met Aislyn, but now it was nearing its end; ready to die, to erase them all. Energy whispered from all around him, calling him forward and pushing him backward as if they were there, in the bay itself makes Derek nervous. The thought that another cataclysmic event could bestow itself upon the land such as calling out the rings of limbo once more was horrifying. He wondered, idly, if anyone thought along the same lines; if anyone knew exactly who they were messing with by keeping him from her. As he neared their clearing he found Aislyn in the middle of it, sitting right in the dirt with her knees bent up to her chest, just like she always used to. ‘Sweetheart,” he murmured to himself. She wrapped her arms around them tightly and rested her head down on them. Derek knew that look
