Alpha Ace and his Undercover Mate

Chapter 18

 

"What do you mean we have to go home?"

 

I stared at my brother expectantly after he just dropped a bomb on me. It was the end of the second month and I knew he was just supposed to submit a report. But go home?

 

There was nothing in our agreement that said we had to go home.

 

Going home would actually be great if I wasn't marked and smelled like the Alpha of the enemy pack. There's no way dad wouldn't notice.

 

And then what? He certainly won't scrap the plan for me, he would just lock me up at home and tell me that I will find a new mate.

 

But is the mission that important to him, even for me? I really didn't want to test the theory.

 

"Woah why are you so surprised? I thought lover boy would've told you by now"

 

"Wait Ace knows? " I asked flabbergasted.

 

"Yea he's the one who told me. Dad called him and asked him to excuse us for two days. "

 

"Two days?! Aiden I wouldn't survive two minutes" He rolled his eyes at how extra I was being, but it wasn't a lie.

 

"We'll figure something out. We can try and mask your scent as much as possible, and once you greet dad you can give an excuse to leave. You know he wont keep you around for the boring conversations"

 

"He's an Alpha Aiden. He'll wonder why I don't smell like him anymore. And if you mask my scent, he'll wonder why"

 

He sighed before answering. "Look Rox, it's our best shot. You don't want him to know about Ace, and that's the only way it will work. We can say you were going somewhere and you didn't want to be noticed, so you masked your scent. Strong masks normally last for like three days so you wouldn't draw suspicion"

 

I pondered on his words for a while. That would work, and I could always hide my mark. It can't be too bad. After all,  I really missed home. 

 

"Okay, we'll do that. When are we leaving? "

 

"Tomorrow"

 

"Tomorrow!? " I repeated.

 

"He wanted to see us ASAP, and Ace didn't have a problem with us leaving"

 

Something struck my attention, and it had me panicking all over again. "Wait so if dad talked to Ace, and Ace doesn't know that dad doesn't know about us being mates, do you think he said something? "

 

Aiden's expression matched mine as he thought of the possibility.

 

"One way to find out" I nodded in agreement and left him in my room to go find Ace. He was in his office looking over some papers. I didn't want to bother him, but if we were leaving tomorrow I had to know.

 

"Um Ace? Got a minute? " He looked up from the papers and smiled when he saw me.

 

"Of course. You don't have to ask"

 

I returned his smile and walked closer to him, fiddling with my hands. "I heard you talk to my dad"
