“Or like when she grabbed your face and kissed you in front of you mate,” I hear Aries pipes up in my mind, he continues, “or maybe when she approached you and Jade and tried to break you up by lying about being pregnant with your baby maybe those times too Asher”.
Shit, I forgot about that, I am not thinking clearly at all. I guess I am so focused on not allowing those idiots to kidnap jade, that I am forgetting all that Ashley has done to break us up. Now I am slowly figuring out, why I am so late to the game. They all remembered both of those incidents because they were there each time. I am done. Why did these two examples not pop right up in my head before? I am not stupid, why am I continuing to allow Ashley leeway on my account. She truly doesn’t deserve it. She deserves no grace or kindness from me.
I will go to Jade and explain to her that I messed up, I made a mistake, and beg her forgiveness tonight. I love her and I don’t want to lose her.
“You better not lose her Asher, I saw how hurt she looked, it was just like when Ashley pulled your face down for a kiss. You didn’t even try to stop her you have allowed Ashley to hurt my mate, Ivory. She is angry and blocking me now, I swear if you have messed this up for us by being stupid, I won’t forgive you. I am serious, just try phasing without me, you need me to graduate from your Alpha Training, you want to repeat your year? The game you are playing I will not play. I will not lose my mate Asher, get your head straight. You told Jade that she was number 1 in your life, and then the next day, showed her that she wasn’t. She tried to get you to see, everyone else at the table did, except you. You didn’t Asher.” Aries said in the mind link.
“I will fix this Aries, I love her, I know she knows that I love her. I will show her what I meant to say. I just said it wrong. You know that she is the most important thing in my life”, I tell Aries. I cut our mind link short as I get one from Dixon.
“We are going to go back to the house now it had been about 14 minutes since they left, and we will make sure that they see Jade when we get home. She will be safe with us. We have it tonight, we are going to shower and take turns keeping watch over Jade, to make sure that she is safe. When they leave, we will mind link you, so you won’t worry so much. But it may make Ashley and Eric madder to see you come to visit. Bree is taking the first watch, and each of us guys will take over the watch for an hour each throughout the night. You can talk to her tomorrow, Asher”. Dixon mind links me. I guess I will go home then, I see that they don’t want me there and Dixon may have a point Eric and Ashley might get madder if I come by. I will just talk to Jade in the morning and fix this. I said it wrong, but I always believe Jade, I just needed the proof to be able to pass it on to the Council, and I verified it for myself. I just wish Jade had come with me, holding her hand, or smelling her scent would have kept me calm. Right now, I am very anxious as I can feel how sad and upset Jade is right now and I know that it is all my fault.
We pull up to the house in Mason’s truck and park in the driveway. I had asked him to park behind my Jeep and keep the drive clear for Calvin to pull in and be able to park and no one know that his vehicle was in the garage. We all saw Eric’s SUV on a side street near our rental house, parked facing the direction of our house, where they had an unobstructed view of the whole front yard, front door, and driveway, but unless you were looking in his direction, and none of us did when we got out of the truck, you wouldn’t notice anyone in the SUV watching, it was pretty smart on whoever came up with parking it that way. We entered the house and noticed that Bree had the blinds turned facing up so she could keep a watch on them. I had told her when they passed us and what the SUV looked like, so she kept an eye out for them.
“How long have they been here Bree?” I asked her.
“Almost 20 minutes,” Bree tells me.
“Can you see anyone inside the car, we didn’t want to look when we passed or when we got out of the truck. We didn’t want them to know that we were here” I told her.
“That was a good idea, Jade, we don’t want to spook them, or tip our hand that we know what he is planning to do,” Bree tells me.
“Hey Nicole, did you get in touch with Calvin? Is he ok, is he going to be coming tomorrow or tonight?” I ask her.
“Calvin said that he was going to start occasionally coughing now, and whenever Eric and Kyle come back, he will give it about 20 minutes and then tell them that he is going to go get a drink from the drink machine and then just leave. I told him to make sure he doesn’t get followed, and to call when he is a few minutes out so we can let him into the garage” Nicole tells me.
“I am worried about him as he went out of his way to make sure that nothing happened to me, I just want him to be safe and away from them. They are terrible and I don’t know how I survived living there. I will feel better when he is here safe. Wait, make that I will feel better when I am back at Dark Moon” I tell them.
