Alpha Ace and his Undercover Mate

My legs ached with each contact it had with the ground, and my chest constricted more by the minute. One, because I was running at full speed, and two, because my heart felt like it had been struck with a silver dagger laced with wolfsbane.

I was getting closer to the large training ground where I sensed them to be gathered, and I silently prayed that nothing had started yet. Ryan was still behind me, but by a few meters. It was obvious that he was struggling to keep up, but no way was I going to let him catch me and just end up slowing me down.

Relief bathed my tingling skin when I saw that there were no bodies, fighting or blood. Ace seemed to have gathered a lot of his people in the short time, and they were already in defensive and attack mode. More men emerged from the trees in wolf form, making Ace's army bigger.

Dad's army was just as big, and I could recognize a few of my trainers and warriors. I also saw Phillip and Aiden, and Aiden was the first out of the two groups to see me coming.

~"Are you trying to get yourself killed?!"~ He bellowed through our link, watching me with wide and disapproving eyes.

~"Stay the hell out of my head"~ I snapped back then completely blocked him from my mind.

Ace and dad were glaring at each other and baring teeth. Every wolf on each side, both shifted and in human form did the same with each other, so no one even noticed when Aiden left the group and was running towards me.

I ran straight for him, but quickly wooshed around him once he was close enough to grab me. I knew he was taken off guard, so I had a little advantage of getting away from him before he recovered. Unlike Ryan, Aiden could catch me in a few seconds.

"Roxy! Roxy, stop now!" He shouted at the top of his voice, and if I wasn't annoyed with him then, I was sure as hell annoyed with him now since his voice made every single head snap towards me, including Ace and dad.

Ace's eyes darkened when he saw me running towards them, but I tried to ignore his burning gaze by facing dad. But that too was a mistake, since he had the very same expression as Ace. For different reasons of course.

Ace told me to stay away, and here I was defying him. And dad? Well I wasn't sure about how much he knew, but I surely knew that he was pissed.

"I told you to go to the safe house with Ryan" Ace gritted out as soon as I was in hearing range. I opened my mouth to reply as I slowed down, but I was grabbed by the shoulders and spun around harshly.

"What the hell were you thinking? Do you want to get hurt?"

I yanked my hand from Aiden's grasp and gave him my best glare. "Like you care"

His face flashed with something that looked like hurt, and I took the opportunity to go closer to the confused looking wolves on both sides. Four hundred eyes watching as you walk into a war zone wasn't exactly a walk in the park.

Wolves from my pack watched me as if waiting for me to make a move, while wolves from Ace's pack watched me in irritation, wondering how and why one she-wolf could disrupt a pack-to-pack stare off. They didn't know who I was after all.
