[AZTEC]"We need to talk, Aztec,” Beatrice suddenly said to Aztec who just let out a long frustrated sigh. From his experience with the woman, nothing good ever came out of these talks and frankly, he was too sick and tired of them already."I don't have the time and energy to deal with your theatrics tonight. You can skip the formalities, and wait for the food. It shouldn't be long now,” Aztec said and Beatrice just nodded in understanding. She wasn't trying to get the alpha to fight with her anyway."I’m sorry, Aztec,” Beatrice began, making Aztec whip his head fast to look at her, maybe she had misspelled it right? Maybe she wanted to say something else and had stumbled upon an apology, no? Oh, but she really did catch him off guard."What?”"I’m sorry about everything. I get it now, and I understand where I stand with you. I will respect your space and Luna as demanded of me. "I’m sorry I was too much trouble to Luna too," Beatrice said and for a moment Aztec was confused he was
[AZTEC]"I’ll find you,” Aztec said to himself convincingly. "Rodrigo, get everything ready. I’m making a small detour at Marina and I’ll be there with you guys in twenty minutes,” Aztec said to his beta, who wasn't even surprised that the alpha was going to the company.Seeing as his Luna had gotten off work in the worst of ways the previous day, Aztec figured he would go on to the company she worked, Marina designs, and get her belongings. Maybe then she woud be able to look at him from a different light. Aztec wasn't sure what he wanted her to look at him like, but one thing was certain. He was more than willing to atone for all the things he had done and not done to and for her.Maybe this time, they would really try and talk their way through their issues, after all, they were married and she was mated already. So technically there was not going to be a divorce at least for a year, if they wanted to. And only then would a rejection suffice, but until then they would have found
[AZTEC]"Well, I’m on leave and I have all the time in the world, if you want to play this game,” Gemma said as she stared at Aztec, not even faltering at the glare he was giving her. It was possible to say that Gemma Stevens was the female version of Aztec Marshall, or was that Sandra’s position? It was difficult to tell at the moment."Okay fine, I’m here for my wife’s belongings,” Aztec said to Gemma, knowing so well that the woman was not going to give in. it was easier for him to relent anyway."Don't stress about it. And it won't be necessary, because I already cleared her desk as you can see,” Gemma said and that caught the alpha’s attention. She definitely knew that Aztec would make a detour here, and even if she didn't, the probabilities of a Marshall wolf coming for Sandra’s belongings was high. Aztec stared at Gemma, curious to know why she would show up early and clear his Luna's desk. Now that Aztec thought about it, the stench of janitorial tools wasn't that. It was t
[AZTEC]Without putting up a fight, Gemma got into the alpha’s waiting car, and went with him to the pack. It was a nice G-wagon with amazing specs, and Gemma being a lover of vehicles obviously gushed over it, but in silence. The alpha wasn't the person she needed to tell that, because she knew that after the Sandra operation, the two of them were probably never going to see each other again. Gemma had noticed earlier that he had questions, especially about the silent exchange she just had with the rider, and she was frankly waiting for him to say something, but he didn’t say anything. Instead, he put on some slow music and they all minded their business. The first stop wasn't at the Marshall mansion, instead, it was at the Marshall pack; and the moment they drove in, everyone knew they had a human among them. And all attention turned to Gemma Stevens."Great, I’m a celebrity here. What should I do now? Wear a crown on my head for them to see me well?” Gemma sarcastically said, c
[AZTEC]"Alright, let’s get rolling,” Aztec said to his wolves an hour later, when he and his team had gone over the plans more than once. He didn't want any of them screwing up the rescue mission, because then there would be more than one life at stake, and that would be too expensive, even for him. It was imperative that they all knew what they were getting into and the security system that was waiting for them. Of course, Gemma thought that they would be using most of the weaponry, but when they settled for shotguns she was a little disappointed, though she didn't notice that out loud. She didn't want to be the mood dampener here, especially seeing how they were ready to go all in for the luna. Quietly, Gemma watched as the marshall wolves split up and went out for their luna. They looked so determined it was almost impossible to tell that these very wolves despised the luna they were going after. But that didn't matter to Gemma because her best friend would be coming back."Al
[AZTEC]"I already have what I want, Aztec. The question you should be asking, is 'what do you have to offer, in exchange for your luna?’ Now we both know we could go to war about this, but you made a promise, and all I did was collect on it."If I’m to let her go, I need something to work with,” Denver said so nonchalantly as he stared at Sandra's pissed face.'Great, a bunch of alpha males who think I’m the prize,’ Sandra thought to herself angrily as she started between Aztec and Denver. She was absolutely disinterested in whatever the boys were doing, but there was something going on, and she was going to pay attention. Sandra looked at Aztec, the ever-calm man who was never scared of anything, and yet for some reason, being here with Denver made him look like he was fighting for his sanity. She was curious to know what promise Aztec had made, even though she knew that it would probably end up with her pissed off again. Oh, how she despised power games."I can't give you my Luna
[AZTEC]"Yeah, we are,” Sandra responded, her angry tone disappearing as she looked at the alpha that had claimed her. "Let’s get on with it then, shall we?” Alpha Aztec said to Alpha Denver who was already waiting for him in the fight ring. Aztec was quick to put on his equipment, before he joined his friend in the ring. It was quite sad how they had gotten to this point, but then it wasn't like they could go back in time, now, would they?"Alright, I guess your beta is the referee, no?” Denver said to Aztec like he already knew the answer. Rodrigo looked at the two alphas with a frown on his face reminding them that this wasn't what he had signed up for when he had come on this mission Of course there were uncertainties in every mission and this right here just happened to be one of them, right?"On three! One. Two. Start!” Rodrigo said not in the mood to deal with Aztec and Denver’s childish act. It was something that he was never going to understand, especially now that the mars
[AZTEC]What had been supposed to be a rescue mission, had turned out to be a goodbye session for Aztec and his friend and frankly, the Marshall alpha wasn't doing so well. He didn't like the news he had gotten despite going in to save his Luna from Denver. He felt tricked and he hated that feeling so much. Aztec had been too cooped up in his denial that he didn't even realize when the medics arrived, and took Denver to the Adamera hospital. The Marshall alpha was still out of it, and his best friend had to drag him out of the fight ring in the Miraculo compound. Beta Rodrigo Lacosta knew that Aztec would want to know how Denver was fairing on, but the first priority was to snap the big bad alpha out of the shock of the possibility that he was going to lose another person he cared about. He would deny it when asked in public, but Aztec was always going to care about Denver Miraculo. Their packs may have been rivals, but that wasn't their individual case. They grew up together and
