Chapter 46
Waking up to hands shaking me I squinted up at Ace. “Morning” He says as he smiles down at me.
My lips tug up slightly and I feel for Tyson behind me but he isn’t in bed his side cold like he hadn't
been in bed for a while.
“He is at work, but you have your end of suspension meeting this morning unless you want me to
pull you out?” Ace says sounding hopeful and I groan stuffing the pillow back over my face hating the
idea of going back to school, but at least I could see Mitchell and soon I would graduate so I figured I
will just suffer through it.
“ No, I should go. What time is it?” I ask him.
“In that case then, it is time to get up” He says gripping my hips making me squeal before I am
flung over his shoulder as he marches into Tyson’s ensuite.
“Shower, I will make you some breakfast,” Ace says, placing me on my feet and I instantly shiver
from the cold tiles.
“We leave in 30 minutes so shower quickly” Ace says before walking out. I quickly showered
before digging through my clothes and finding some jeans and a blue tank top and hoodie.
“Lucy?” Ace calls from the kitchen.
“I am coming” I scream back to him while stuffing my shoes on my feet before grabbing my school NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
bag. Walking down the hallway, I toss my bag near the front door before turning into the kitchen and
tying my hair in a messy bun on my head because I couldn’t be bothered brushing the knots out.
Ace places a coffee on the bench in front of me before sliding a plate of peanut butter toast over to
me. I sip my coffee before picking up a piece of toast and biting into it. My tongue is sticking to the roof
of my mouth from the peanut butter.
“Well that defeats the purpose of brushing my teeth” I tell him seeing as he smothered the poor
toast in so much peanut butter that I might as well have been eating it straight from the jar.
“Too much peanut butter?” Ace chuckles as I try to swallow it down with the dry ass toast, having
to wash it down with my coffee.
“Just a little, what’s going on with Tyson, he always seems to be working these days?” I ask him.
“Nothing, just Alpha Jamie’s pack causing problems. We have had a few issues within the pack
because of him”
“What sort of problems in the pack?”
“Mate problems mostly, three pack members from our pack found there mates”
“Why is that a problem though?”
“Because they are from Alpha Jamie’s pack”
“You don’t want them to leave the pack?” I ask him and he shakes his head while sipping his
coffee.
“No, we said they could go. It's not us it is Jamie, using his own pack members as hostages,
refusing to let them leave and also refusing our pack members being with their mates” He says.
“Well that sucks, all for a piece of land? Why not just hand it over to him?”
“Well for starters we had plans for it, but that isn’t the only reason. Alpha Jamie wants the river to
send his shit across pack borders, he knows if he steps over our borders with his drugs or Rykers and
the other packs he will be strung up. The other packs bowed and gave in so the river running along the
back here belongs to him, except the piece that backs onto our land unless we give this side he can’t
run his drugs up and down it to get it out of the city without crossing into someones pack”
“Why doesn’t Ryker do something about it?”
“Because for him to intervene he needs proof and reason to step on his land, sure he can walk in
there and search his pack but it would cause an uproar with him just walking in and that may cause
problems with the other packs”
“How was he getting it out before this then?”
“Planes from what we gathered, Ryker shut the airport down which was on Alpha Jamie's pack,
and had a new one built on the other side of the city. Then all this shit started” he says looking at his
watch.
“Come on time to go” He says, sculling the rest of his coffee. I quickly do the same, dropping my
plate and cup in the sink before following after him. I grab my bag and rush out to his car that was
parked out the front of the packhouse. Only it wasn’t his car but a new silver one.
“Where is your car?” I ask him and he scratches the back of his neck.
“Motor blew up and Aamon has a friend who owns a dealership, he had this sent here this morning
for me” he says with a shrug. Hitting the button to unlock the doors. He smirks as I huff walking over to
the passenger side.
“You don’t like it?” He asks,
“No, I preferred your old muscle car this one is too..
too”
“Pretty and girly looking” He chuckles and I nod looking at the sleek Audi that Aamon had sent
him.
“Well lucky for you I am not keeping this, only borrowing it until I find another car” He says before
climbing in the drivers side. I climb in before putting my seatbelt on.
“You don’t have to go to the meeting thing you know?”
“Well Jacob is busy, and I am down as your guardian on the paperwork so I kind of do have to go”
“Because that doesn't sound creepy at all, mate and guardian” I tell him. He shrugs, pulling out of
the driveway and onto the highway.
“I don’t mind, I like it, they will ring me if you need anything or if something happens” He says. We
drove listening to the morning radio show for about twenty minute before crossing the border into my
mothers territory.
“You sure you want to come, I know you hate my principal” I tell him as we get nearer.
“Lucy I am going to the meeting, now stop asking I am not dropping you off and leaving, besides I
already told them I would be going”
“But technically I don’t need a guardian, I am 18 now” I tell him.
“Yes but for school you do, also Tyson was pissed off you wouldn’t let us come see you on your
birthday” Ace says and he didn’t sound too happy about it either.
“I hate birthdays, besides I was busy helping mum with Ryden” I tell him. He growls clearly not
happy.
“Well doesn’t matter, Tyson still has something planned anyway” Ace says and I roll my eyes at
him.
“My birthday was a week ago” I tell him.
“I know when your birthday is Lucy, I use it as my password for everything” He chuckles.
“Really?” I ask a little shocked.
“Grab my phone out of my pocket” He says and I lean over and dig through his pants pocket, he
lifts his hips letting me get my hand into his pocket and I pull his phone out. Clicking on the screen I see
a picture of me with Tyson from a few years ago at Christmas as his screensaver.
