Alpha Ace and his Undercover Mate
Chapter 11
The week has been better.
My heart hasn't been bleeding and my wolf hasn't been whining, which meant I hadn't been having headaches.
Things with Ace have been good so far. He hasn't been pushy and I liked that. Maybe he thought that my earlier statement about not wanting a mate was true, and so he doesn't want to throw it all on me at once.
And I was grateful.
It's not that I don't want him, but merely because I still didn't know how to balance my two lives, and taking it too far with Ace too quick will only make me more distracted.
Aiden was still weary of it all, but he seemed to be happy that I was kinda happy. It warmed my heart that he was somehow supporting me despite the fact that I hadn't been honest all along. But nonetheless, he was still 100% mission.
Yesterday he informed me that we would have to start digging around soon, and knowing Aiden, his soon was less than two days. I still hadn't made any progress with my plan, but I made a promise to Aiden that we would execute mission as originally planned.
So as much it hurt me to be going behind Ace's back, I had to until I figured out a way to save my people and my relationship.
I threw open the door to my balcony that I've come to love, while the cool Saturday breeze whipped my hair all about. I pulled it into a high bun and watched as the birds sped by in their swirls of freedom. I smiled at the thought. Their life seemed so open and adventurous, free to roam without a care in the world. Just being happy with the ones they love, or even alone.
I aspire to be like a bird one day.
Someday.
It was sometime around ten in the morning, given that I got to sleep in today. Zack informed us yesterday that we would be getting weekends off, courtesy of my mate.
Aiden and I didn't protest. To Aiden, weekends off meant that we had more time to snoop around and study the people here. To me, it meant more time with Ace, whom I've come to love being around every time when we weren't occupied. I suspected that it was the same reason why he had us take the weekends off.
But here I was once again, stuck between using the new free time to be with Ace or Aiden. This double life was really getting tiring.
My stomach growled, letting me know it needed to be filled, so I ventured off to the kitchen to get food. I made myself a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, with some black coffee. I wasn't tired, but I felt in need of an energy booster.
Slowly and quietly I ate, while I scrolled through some random posts on pinterest, laughing ever so often at something I found funny.
"Good morning" I looked up from my phone and beamed at Ace, as he gently kissed my temple. I blushed slightly at the gesture, loving the way it made my body feel.
Throughout the week he'd give me small kisses on my forehead, cheeks or temple, and hug me once in a while. I loved how the skin to skin contact with him made me feel, but I never initiated anything.
It wasn't that I didn't want to, I was just a shy person.
"Want one? " I asked, gesturing towards the sandwich that he was eying.
"No thanks, I already ate" I gave him a weird and confused look, since I didn't know why he was looking at it. He chuckled softly.
"I want to take you somewhere, but I can wait until you're done"
I suddenly got excited at the thought of going somewhere other than the training grounds, so I quickly gulped down the rest of my breakfast, which didn't go unnoticed by Ace, making him laugh a little.
"Ready? " I asked and jumped from my seat.
"As long as you are"
We walked at a steady pace through the forest, laughing now and then at something funny that Ace would say. Around everyone else he was kinda stern, but with me he was always chill and vibrant.
Out of nowhere, he scooped my up, throwing my legs around his waist and holding my back. A yelp of surprise escaped my lips, which was followed by a bellowing laugh.
This was why I enjoyed being around him. He always made me somehow forget my messed up life.
