Alpha Ace and his Undercover Mate

I threw my last bag in the trunk of the very expensive car that was sent to pick us up.

The two men that came to collect us were much nicer than I expected them to be. They only became professional when we were talking business, but then they were back to being cool and collected.

This made me more suspicious about them. Why were they so nice?

"All set?" The one whose name I learnt was Ryan asked with a smile on his face. I gave him a short nod as I went to say my goodbyes.

I made my way to Jace and Jane first, giving each of them a bone crushing hug.

Jace was the eldest of us all, and I had the weirdest crush on him when I was younger, so I was always awkward around him. However, I don't think he ever noticed, so the awkwardness was always one-sided. Nonetheless, we all grew up together as a family, and so he was very much dear to me.

Jane, on the other hand, was more than family. That made it much harder to say good-bye to her than anyone else--even my dad.

"You make sure you come back to me in one piece" Jane mumbled in my neck as she squeezed the breath from my lungs.

"I'll be back, don't worry. The four months will pass in no time, you'll see." I mumbled in a small voice. I release her shortly after, shooting her a quick reassuring smile before escaping swiftly. I loved her, but I'd be in a Jane-hug for days if I didn't get out of there.

I went to Beta Phillip next, and he openly welcomed me in a warm hug. It was quite unusual, given that we never show affection in this family. You just know the love is there.

"Make me proud" Was all he said as he gently kissed my hair.

I most definitely will.

He passed me to Rose, Jane's mom, and we said our awkward goodbyes next. It only felt weird because neither of us were good at goodbyes. But in the end, she uttered a few encouraging words before bidding me farewell. I appreciated each word she said, reminding me the great responsibility I had to this pack.

Finally, I went face to face with my dad, and I oddly felt like crying. I knew it won't be easy for Aiden and I to live in a foreign place where there was no one to look out for us like my dad did. Just being there on the edge of good-bye reminded me how hard this mission could be.

"Be brave, strong and bold" He whispered in my hair as I hugged him. "Make us proud, even though I'm already proud of you guys. Look out for your brother, don't let him get too caught up okay?" I nodded, knowing just what he meant.

Aiden had a tendency of going a little overboard, especially when things weren't going his way. But despite that fact, if anyone could complete this mission, it's him. All he will need is a little self control.

He kissed my hair as I whispered my goodbye, quickly wiping my tears before heading to the car.

Aiden and the two friendly strangers were patiently waiting, conversing about something I couldn't hear.

My brother was never the type to give hugs and kisses unless it was with me, so he just oddly waved at everyone as we loaded the car.
