Bethany: His Little Wolf Chapter 159

Gamma Ashley

I listen to Joey's words and I'm instantly left feeling lost, the thought of Kelly leaving here and living 18 hours away is devastating and not happening!

"No!" I shout out the word louder than needed but I can't help myself. "She's not going anywhere!"

"Ashley I understand this is a shock for you but we need to talk about this." Joey is calm and collected as he speaks to me while I just feel so fucking angry at the idea of them wanting to take my sister away from me.

"You're not taking her away from me!" I jump up kicking my chair back with so much force it bounces off the wall behind me while I storm out of the office before I do or say something I regret.

The office door slams closed behind me but I dont even look back instead I head straight for the packhouse doors. I'm so angry I know there's a chance that I could shift at any moment and I dont want to do that inside the packhouse, that will just cause unnecessary damage to the packhouse and I dont want to do that to Cal.

The moment I'm outside the packhouse I start running for the forest. I get to the treeline and immediately shift without even stripping first which means I'll have to walk back to the packhouse butt-ass naked later but fuck it right now I couldn't care less.

I'm so fucking angry right now that if I dont run this off right now I'm going to start doing and saying stuff that I know I'll regret later on. As soon as I shift I retreat to the back of my mind and let Alfie take over control.

He runs with all he has the crunch of the twigs and forest ground underneath our paws combined with the wind blowing past us with force feels freeing and exactly what I need. While I'm running Jack, Cal, and Liam have all linked me but I've ignored them, I feel bad for doing it but I'm not ready to talk to anyone.

It's the first time I've ignored my mate but I feel so lost right now that I'm doing it without even thinking about it but I'll make it up to him I know that much. We run for around 30 minutes before Alfie leads us to one of the smaller lakes that we have on the packlands and takes a long drink from it before laying down on the soft grass and resting.

I've not been here long before I hear the sound of rustling not far away, usually, I would already be on my feet and on guard but right now I just dont care enough, I feel like everything is a fight right now and I just need out. There's a massive chance that it's my mom coming for me but still, I dont move.

The sound of rustling leaves soon dies down and the noise of feet moving across the ground as the twigs and stones crunch under someone's weight is next to reach my ears but still, I can't seem to find the strength to do anything about it.

"Ash." My mate's mouthwatering scent hits my nose just seconds before his soft loving voice comes through and just hearing his voice call my name has me close to breaking down. Fuck my emotions are all over the place today. I feel his heat as he closes in on me and just moments later he's right by my side where he always is when I need him.

He gets down on his hunches and slowly strokes the fur on my face. He's as naked as the day he was born and that alone gets my insides stirring. Fuck he's beautiful. I try to link him to speak to him but I can't as Alfie still has control and won't hand it back yet.

"Will you shift back please darling?"

I shake my head and whine trying to tell him that I can't and thankfully he seems to understand what I'm trying to say. "Has Alfie got control?" I nod answering yes while he continues to gently rub my fur. "Alfie, can I speak to Ashley, please? Taz also wants to speak to you." Jack looks directly into my eyes as he talks to Alfie and I feel relieved when it works.

Alfie gives me back control as he concentrates on talking to Taz while I continue to feel lost. "Ash, will you shift please beautiful?"

I give him a small nod before he steps back and I shift back into my human form now just as ass naked as he is. He takes my hand and sits down on the grass pulling me down so I'm sitting next to him.

He's looking at me with such love and tenderness and it's taking everything I have to hold back the tears that are stinging my eyes right now. He gives me a beautiful smile and without even thinking about what I'm doing I lunge at him and kiss him with everything I have.

It takes him a second to respond, properly shocked at my sudden movement but once he joins in the kiss quickly gets hot and steamy.

"I need you, Jack." He pulls back a little to look at me while he caresses my cheek with one of his hands.

"Baby you have a lot going through your head right no-" Before he can keep rambling on I stop him with another kiss. "I need you, Jack, please!" I know I sound desperate but I don't care, I need to forget even if it's just for a little while.

"I'm here darling."

"Make me forget." He doesn't say anymore instead he does what I ask and blows my mind with the most amazing sex of my life and just as I wanted it helps me forget for a while.

"Let's get in the lake and clean up babe." He reaches out his hand and pulls me up from the ground where I'm a sweating panting mess, my mate knows exactly what he's doing when it comes to pleasing me and as always I'm left weak at the knees.

He laughs as I groan when I'm finally standing up and he pulls me into the lake so we can clean up a little. "Talk to me, darling." I look at him to see his loving eyes looking back at me, there's no judgment in them just worry and I dont want him to worry over me.

"I'm sorry."

"Why are you sorry darling?"

"I'm sorry I lost it back there like I did and I'm sorry I run." I look down at my hands while twiddling my fingers together as I speak.

"You dont need to be sorry darling, no one thinks bad of you, they get it."

"I can't lose her Jack."

"You won't!" The tone of his voice has changed to determined and has me looking up at him. he takes my hands in his and places a gentle swift kiss on my lips.

"I will. If she moves 18 hours away I'll lose her."

"After you left I had a quick chat with Joey and Jackie before I came to find you, I wanted to give you a few minutes alone and I wanted more answers from them. Ash, they have thought this through, and if you just give them a chance to explain I think you will come to understand the idea more than you think."

"You do?" I'm not so convinced but I trust in Jack.

"Yep." A laugh suddenly slips past my mouth as I think about the huge tantrum I've pulled in front of everyone and I'm suddenly a little embarrassed. Why do I have to be such a drama queen at times?

"What's so funny Mr?" His sexy smirk has me wanting him again but I reign myself in knowing we haven't really got time for that right now but there's always later.

"I was just thinking about the massive drama queen I was back there!" He lets out a loud laugh before pulling me into him and holding me tightly to him.

"Well, I still love you regardless."

"And so you should!" He laughs again as he takes my hand and pulls me out of the lake and back onto the grass.

"So will you come back and let them explain darling? I'll be right by your side and I'll support whatever decision you make."

"Ok." I nod his way making him smile and in turn, I smile too. We shift back into our wolves and head for the packhouse. Once we come to the tree line of the forest we stop and shift back into our human form. "Shit," I whisper.

"What's wrong darling."
