Not Quite A Faerie Princess: ch.1

"You had no right." Spencer yelled
"No right. How can you say I had no right?"
"I am here alone and Ashley's not here."
"She had a choice."
"Ya, ya, you keep saying that but what choice did she have? She thought I was dying, and the only way to save me was an option that you gave to her."
"In that realm you did."
Spencer came to an abrupt halt. "I did what?"
"Died"
"No I didn't."
"Yes you did."
"I thought you couldn't interfere with our lives." Spencer said as she ignored what the glowing ball told her.
"I'm not suppose to but it was a favor for your mother."
"My mother?"
"Yes your mother." And she added to herself 'Besides the Ashe commanded it.'
"Aren't you supposed to be ever knowing?" Spencer waited a moment "Well?"
"We tend not to admit our weaknesses."
"So your not ever knowing?" Spencer asked
"I didn't say that."
The sphere of light was bouncing up and down in an agitated state.
"Would you stop doing that? It's hard enough talking to you when you look like a floating ball thingy glowing and all that." she finished waving her hands up and down in an agitated way at the ball of light.
"I forgot." Said the sphere as it turned into an older version of one Queen Paula.
Spencer came forward and embraced the individual in a hug. "Grandma," she began
"I never get tired of hearing that child." Said Spencer's grandmother as she stroked her cheek.
"Grandma," Spencer began once again. "I know you meant well…..but can't you see thatI love Ashley." She said as she pulled back and looked in her grandmother's face.
"I believe you do child, but that still doesn't make a difference, you were conceived to rule the Fae Realm, not just the Seelie court but the Unseelie court as well. You are the perfect whole, equal amounts of both races of fae, light and dark, both in one body. You were meant to bring both together as a united front. To make Fae a strong nation for our allies, and an even stronger nation against our enemies." Her grandmother said. "Besides it's so unnatural."
Spencer chose to ignore that last part knowing that it was a jibe against Ashley being a Were and would cause more trouble at the moment. "But…..I didn't agree to that." Spencer said in a dejected tone.
"I know child but the responsibility of leadership has never the less fallen to your shoulders."
"Why….." whined Spencer as she stomped her foot.
"Enough of that child, chin up." Said her grandmother as she stepped forward and hugged Spencer once again.

Meanwhile back in the Mortal Realm….
Ashley was being a bear and Aiden was about to explode all over her after all it wasn't his fault that he forgot to bring a change of clothes. He didn't plan on transforming in the middle of the beach with people wandering around, to attack a demon that was sneaking up on a bonfire surrounded by humans, and he certainly didn't plan on Ashley showing up to stop said demon from drowning him in the ocean. Not that he wasn't glad, because let me tell you he was very glad for he wouldn't be here right know if she hadn't, and he did appreciate it, but that didn't give her the right to treat him like a child, that was what he had Madison for.
"You should always be prepared." Ashley was saying as he tuned her out once again. They were at her beach house, it was nice. Ashley was transferred out here to Sunny California after that incident in Manhattan. They stopped Arthur's take over, but they were now waiting to see what the Fae Queen would do. After all she was Arthur's wife, estranged wife anyways, and Christine decided Ashley needed a different scenery for awhile at least until everything settled down there. So he decided to come out here with her along with Madison and Kyla showed up a couple of weeks ago, not only that but Chelsea and her broad were getting ready to move here as well. He was still thinking when he was smacked in the back of the head.
"OW…what did you do that for?" he demanded.
"That's for not listening." Ashley said as she hit him in the back of the head again.
"Ow…"
"And that's for sitting on my couch in no clothes, now I'll have to have it burned."
"Don't be like that, I'll take it off your hands, Madison would love it." He said as he ran his hands over the leather couch.
"I thought I told you to sit on a towel?" she asked
"You did but you never gave me one to dry off with." He said as he shrugged his shoulders.
"How do you survive without Madison?" she asked as she went in the bathroom and came out with another towel.
"He couldn't chica." Madison said as she came through the front door. She went to the couch and leaned over and kissed him on the cheek, when she stood back up she hit him in the back of the head.
"Ow….what is this beat up on Aiden day?" he asked as he rubbed the back of his head.
"That's for not coming home last night." She said.
"I was on patrol." He whined
"I know, that's why I called Ashley to find you."
He looked to Ashley. "Why didn't you tell me?" he asked.
"Haven't you been listening to anything I've said?"
"Yes…" he said as he thought about it
"Well?" Ashley asked.
"No not really." He said as his shoulders slumped forward.
"Got lost in your own secret world again did you?" Madison asked with a smirk on her face.
He blushed as he looked down at the floor.
"So you didn't hear me tell you that your….." Madison stopped her with a hand to her shoulder.
"Can you give us a moment?" she asked Ashley.
"Sure…." She said as she turned around and started walking to her room. "It's not like this is my house or anything." She threw over her shoulder as she closed her room door only to stick her head back out and throw Aiden a pair of her cut off jogging pants. "Put those on before you get anything else on my couch." She said as she shut her door once again.
Aiden removed the pillow from his lap and stood up then he put the shorts on mumbling the whole time, so much so that he didn't hear Madison when she spoke up.
"Aiden"
"Aiden" She called once again
He looked at her sheepishly. "Sorry about that, but all she does since we've been here is chew me out. If it's not one thing it's another. I can't ever do anything right when it comes to her. I thought if we came out here she would find someone if not to mate with then at least to let off some sexual frustration."
"She only rides you so hard because she loves you."
"But I'm a big boy now and I don't need a baby sitter when I go out on patrol…..I can take care of my self just fine." He said as he crossed his arms.
"Don't forget to stomp your foot." Was shouted from Ashley's room
Aiden's eyebrows went up and he shook his head and gestured to the door wildly. "See….see what did I tell you?"
"Calm down sweetie….." Madison said as she moved up behind him and wrapped him in her arms as she rested her cheek against his back. "You were being kind of babyish."
"And loud." Ashley shouted.
He chose to ignore her as he turned in Madison's arms and leaned down and kissed her on the head. "I know, and it's not like I don't appreciate it, but it would be nice to not be yelled at every time I turn around." He said.
He glanced out the patio and saw a blond headed woman on the beach in a two piece bikini; he let out a low whistle.
Madison growled and punched him in the stomach lightly. "What are you looking at."
"Some one I think will make a lovely little diversion for our Ashley." He said as he turned Madison around as he continued. "To get her freak on with." He said as he wiggled both eyebrows at her.
"She looks kind of familiar." She said as she started out onto the patio.
About that time the blond turned towards them and waved. Madison's mouth hit the floor as well as Aiden's.
Then Madison started giggling until it became an all out guffaw.
Ashley came out of her room to find out what was so funny when she looked out on the patio and saw that Madison was barely standing up laughing and Aiden was catching flies with his mouth.
She started to ask what was going on when she was interrupted by the gate opening on the side of her patio and in walks the blond headed woman from the beach.
"Hey sis what's up with them?" Kyla asked as she walked over to Ashley and gave her a hug.
"I don't know I came out here and she was having a conniption fit and he was in shock.
"He" Madison took a deep breath before giggling and trying again. "He…" deep breath.
"He said that you needed….." giggling again. "that you needed to get your freak on…" here she looked at Kyla and fell down on the lounge chair and laughed and laughed while she just pointed between the two sisters.
Ashley put her hand on her hips and looked at Aiden who had the good grace to put his head down and close his mouth as his entire face turned bright red. "I got to go." He said as he raced out of the beach house which only caused Madison to laugh that much more loudly.
Kyla started giggling as well as she pranced in front of Madison. "Was it my new hair?" She said as she waved her head around and fluffed her hair with her hands.
Madison just shook her head yes still trying to catch her breath. That just caused her to snort and that was all it took for Ashley to join in as well.
#############################################
It had been a good six months since Spencer had any contact with the mortal realm her grandmother wouldn't let her leave the Fae realm no matter what she promised to do.
"Princess… you have to know what there is to know. You can not sit here day dreaming about what ever it is you dream about. What would Mother Nature say if she saw you now?" asked Truman in a haughty voice.
"She would say give my grand daughter a break Truman she needs a rest." She said as she breezed into the library with Paula right behind her.
"I second that Truman your working her too hard." She said as she stepped forward and wrapped Spencer in a hug.
"Thanks Pau…um…mom." Spencer corrected.
"I think you need a vacation. What do you say to California?" Paula asked as Spencer smiled and squealed as she jumped up and down.
"Paula do you think that's a good thing?" asked her mother.
"We all need a break. I think we all will go and that's the end of that." She said as she rubbed both her hands together.
"What are you planning daughter?" her mother asked as Spencer rushed from the library to gather her things.
"I'm thinking my daughter needs a rest." Replied Paula
"In the mortal realm…..the mortal realm where one Ashley Davies resides?" asked her mother in a raised voice.
"Mother….she's my daughter, and I know what realm you speak of, besides Ashley is in Manhattan not California." She stated as she turned her head to hide a smile behind her hand.
"Really what were you thinking letting her date a flea ridden dog?" asked her mother.
"Mother really, what's gotten into you?" Paula asked before continuing, "I had no say in the matter and once I got to know Ashley I didn't have a problem with it at all." She said as she glared at her mother. "If you would have given them a chance…hell her a chance and gotten to know her you would have found out that she would do anything for Spencer and she damn near did."
"Language my daughter and I did get to talk to her and I like her despite her being a dog…..She might even had made a good ruler beside Spencer but that was taken out of my hands the moment she died. There had to be a sacrifice and suffice it to say their relationship was that sacrifice whether you like it or not." She said. "Now about this forced vacation is it required of me to go? I don't like the mortal realm, there is nothing there of interest to me." Asked Mary aka Paula's mother, aka Mother Nature.
##################################################
ch.2
"Yes mother you have to go." Paula replied to Mary. "You haven't spent any family time with Spencer since you've been back."
"Well…I suppose it won't be that bad. There won't be any furry individuals around that will take her mind off her job and we can always recite the Fae laws and discuss them individually. As well as discuss what is expected of her." Mary said.
"Mother you have to give her time to unwind, she is young after all and you have to stop talking like that, especially in the mortal realm." Paula said.
"Like what dear?" Mary asked.
"Like yous still floating around in the clouds and speakings in our heads at the same times like yous do when yous looking down on us lower beings and we can't hear you with just your voices. You have to speaks in a normal voices so we can thinks abouts what yous says. It hurts whens yous dos that." Rushed out Glen as he came rushing in the room. Then he turned to Queen Paula and bowed low.
"Why you little…."
"Mother…." Paula stepped forward and blocked Glen from an unnoticed kick and raised her eyebrow at her mother. "You may rise my little imp." Paula smiled as she looked upon Glen and continued, "Did you find us some accommodations Glen?"
"Yes yous glorious highnesses." He said as he replied still bowed. "Rights on the beaches only one other house on theres." He looked up and rubbed his hands together. "Missy Spencer will loves it." He said as he ran out of the room looking for said Princess.
"Why did you make me bring him back?" Mary asked as she glared after Glen.
"Voice mother voice…..my daughter has a soft spot for him as do I, and it wasn't his place to die." She replied as she turned to look at her mother.
"Why couldn't I bring….."
"Voice…"
"Clay back instead." Mary continued. "Such a nice young man…always so eager to please." She finished with a smile.
"Mother we've been thru this several times it was Clay's time…he died here in his reality of existence." She turned and looked towards the other Fae in the room. "Besides you found Truman here to help Spencer with her studies isn't that enough." She said as she watched Truman practically trip over his own feet trying to please her mother.
"Yes I suppose so." Mary said as she looked down her nose at said individual.
################################################
Spencer was in her room throwing everything around looking for clothes to take to the mortal realm. She was so excited maybe she could sneak away and get a glance of Ashley. So what if it's California, she'll just hop a portal to Manhattan and be back before her grandmother even realizes she's gone. How hard can it be to escape an all knowing being…..she's old after all?
"I'll just keep telling myself that." She mumbled as she finally found the dress she was looking for.
"Missy Princess…." Glen said thru the door. "Yous dressed?" he asked
"Enter." She called out over her shoulder.
Before her door even finished opening Glen was on her shoulder vibrating. "Missy Princess I saws puppy." He said.
"Ashley…you saw Ashley?" she asked as she sat down on the side of her bed and then got up again and started pacing.
He shook his head up and down.
"What does she look like?"
"…"
Spencer spoke again before he could get a word out.
"Is she all right?"
"…"
"Is she eating enough?"
"…"
"Has she found someone?" here she stops and turns to Glen waiting for him to reply. He's looking down at the ground.
"Well?" she practically yelled in his ear.
"I's sorries I not know yous done talking." He replied as he looked up at her.
She just gave him a pointed look waiting for him to answer her question.
"She looks fines." He replied back.
"That's it she looks fine, nothing else?" she asked
He shrugged his shoulders and looked at her and then replied. "Shes living in Kaliforinas." He said.
"California?" she made it sound like a question.
"That's what I says Kalifornias." He said again as he got off her bed and left out the door in a huff.
"California…." Spencer said again then she fell over backwards on her bed with her hands over her head and laughed. She was going to see Ashley. She just knew it, and her mother was helping her out. She couldn't wait to get there and to see her. She thought she might just go blind. It would be like seeing the sun for the first time or being able to see again for the first time, and all she wanted to see was Ashley's face, Ashley's smile, Ashley's breast, Ashley's plump round apple bottom pressed up against her, Ashley writhing beneath her….. humph humph Spencer cleared her throat and sat up on the bed. She had allowed her mind to wonder and her hand had decided to wonder at the same time. She had goose bumps along her stomach to the hem of her robe and under where her hand had wondered just thinking of Ashley.
She jumped up and started throwing things in her bag not caring that it would wrinkle. She was so excited she would see her mate, her love, her everything.
She drew the strings together and picked up her bag and rushed out of the room not looking where she was going.
"Umph…" she ran right into her grandmother. "Why are you in such a hurry?" she asked.
"I'm not." She said.
"It looked like you were."
"Well I'm not."
"Mother….leave her be. She's just excited to be able to relax." Paula said as she came up to the two.
"That's right. I'm just ready to relax, no studies no Truman, just sun and relaxation." She said as she smiled at her mother.
"Well I guess that's all true, but Truman will be coming with us to keep an eye on you." Mary said.
"Wha what, why?" Spencer stuttered out.
"We still need to prepare you to rule, Spencer dear and Truman is our best academic." Mary said. "He knows all the laws, by laws, and even the unwritten laws." She continued. "You need to know all of this to be a formidable leader."
"Mother, this is a vacation." Paula said. "I and Spencer need to spend time together, in order to get to know each other as mother and daughter." She replied. "Not as Aunt and niece."
"You told her you were her mother what more is there to know?" Mary asked. "Other then she is next in line to the throne."
"I will not have you force upon my daughter, what you did to me. She knows her duties. She knows what is expected of her and I have enough faith in her to perform them as should you." She said as she took Spencer by the arm and led her away from Mary. "This is a vacation, you can come and be a part of 'our' family or you can go and look down upon us from your perch in the clouds, but there will be no discussion of rules and thrones."
"It is her birthright." Mary yelled out after them.
Paula turned around to face her mother and raised her hand to get her to stop talking. "Mother you are trying my patients; you do not rule Fae anymore. I am Queen, what I say goes, and I say this is a vacation." She said.
Her mother opened her mouth to speak yet again and Paula shook her head, "End of discussion, come Spencer let our vacation begin."
######################################################
Ashley was spending her night alone. Alone wouldn't be so bad if she had someone to share it with. As it was no self-respecting Were should ever have to endure being alone and celibate. She couldn't blame the fear of commitment, after all she wasn't human it wasn't in her genes to be afraid of a commitment as a matter of fact the mate-bond ran in her blood it gave her a strong pull to find someone to create a family with and to have fun trying to create a whole new generation of baby Were's.
Only problem is she hasn't found anyone she has that pull with. You know the one, the one where all you think about is that person. You would do anything to protect said person. You would die for said person. You can't bear to spend any time away from said person. Well you know what I mean.
The closest she came to that feeling was in her dreams at night. All she could really get a handle on was that said person had baby blue eyes, eyes that glowed with love just for her. Sometimes she could almost make out what the person looked like only for her to turn and walk away. On those mornings she'd wake up with tears running down her face as if she lost her whole meaning for living. On other mornings she'd wake up and feel like a piece of her was missing. Then she would take it out on whoever was around her.
That's what happened the other day, she had woken up from one of her dreams and decided to go for a run along the beach, before long she had run five miles, when she got a phone call from Madison asking her to see if she could find Aiden for her that he was on patrol and he was suppose to be home by now. She agreed and asked where he was suppose to be patrolling and it turned out that she was just a few miles down the beach from the beginning of his area so she decided to keep on running. She passed a bon fire party along the beach, and one of the men had hit on her and tried to get her to stay and have a drink, she turned him down politely at first but he and his friends had insisted. She finally told him that he didn't have what she needed between his legs and that if he didn't step back she would deform what little he had. She emphasized this by grabbing him and twisting just a little. He was all to happy to let her be on her way as he stumbled back to his friends and boasted that he was a little too much for her.
She didn't care what he told them as long as they just left her alone. She was just about ready to turn around when she noticed some dark shadows up ahead splashing in the water and they looked like they were fighting and not only were they fighting but the big red demon was winning and he had somebody under the water. She transformed half way in mid air and landed on the Demon's back as her claws dug into its skin. She twisted his head and ripped into it with her powerful claws and ripped threw muscle, tendon and bone to remove its head from its shoulders in one fell swoop.
When she was back up on the beach she could see something, not something someone dragging themselves out of the water and that someone turned out to be Aiden, and he had no clothes on. Thank god she had on spandex it gave when she transformed and went back to shape when she switched to human form, of course it helped that she only partially transformed as well.
"Are you all right?" she asked as she coughed to get some of the salt water out of her lungs.
"Ya," cough cough "Yes I'm fine." He replied as he came over and sat beside her.
"We need to have a talk about you patrolling alone." She said. "And possibly about you bringing extra clothes." She said as she stood back up and helped him up.
"I can take care of myself." He replied a little hurt that she didn't think he could take care of himself.
"I didn't say you couldn't I just said that we needed to have a little talk." A little rougher then she meant to say it.
Aiden crossed his arms after he stood up and looked around the beach. "Well I hope we're not going to talk here." He said as he looked up the beach and saw a couple of people walking their way and he ducked behind her.
Ashley looked to where he was looking then back to the spot where they had left the body of the Demon to see that it was already washed out to sea.
"Well look what we have here." Said the same guy that Ashley had seen at the bon fire. "If you had mentioned you were meeting someone we could have avoided our little discussion of earlier." He said to some of the guys snickering around behind them.
"I wasn't meeting anyone." She said as she walked up to him and reached out to touch him. He hurried back away from her and tripped on the ground. She kneeled beside him and leaned over him as she did this she brought her hand up in front of his face and transformed one of her fingers into a claw and ran it up his chest. "I thought we had this talk already but if you want me to repeat myself I will." She said as her finger trailed down his stomach towards his manhood, before she could reach all the way there Aiden pulled her up.
"Ya, so we got to go." He said as he pushed her in the direction of her house.
"But Aiden we could have so much fun with him." She said as she winked at the muscled bound boy on the ground and then glanced to his crotch and noticed a dark spot blooming out around that area. She smirked and blew him a kiss as she turned back the way to her house and took off running with Aiden right behind her.
"What was that for…you know we can't show ourselves to the humans yet, the treaty still hasn't gone through with all that went down with the Fae." He said as he caught up to her.
"That was me letting off a little steam, besides he deserved it." She said as she put on a little more speed on, and took off ahead of Aiden once more. He struggled to keep up with her but she just laughed and took off once again this time he didn't try to keep up. Besides he knew where he could find her as well as her giving him a talking to.
She smiled as she thought about what their talk was going to consist of maybe she could call Madison and let her know that he would be getting home a little later and that she was going to recommend a little more physical training.
After all she needed to work out her frustrations on some one.
#############################################
Aiden wasn't looking forward to the talk with Ashley, after all he was a man now and he didn't need a babysitter. He could take care of himself just fine. That's what he decided he would tell Ashley at her house when he got there. She should understand that seeing as she was young once herself.
Yes young and looking to prove her self to her Alpha, that's all he was trying to do and maybe to show off for Madison as well. He had found his someone and he felt it was time for her to find her someone as well. He decided right there and then that they would find someone for her to have a little fun with and let off a little steam, so that she wouldn't always look for him to take it out on. She whooped his ass more then once in their training sessions, now it was his turn to whoop her ass in love, which by the way he did. He had Madison after all, the love of his life the apple of his eye, his everything.
He decided right there that he would enlist Madison and Kyla to help him with the deed. He smiled as he kicked it in a gear and took off running towards Ashley's house.
###############################################
Spencer and her Mother and Grandmother were settling into the beach house when Spencer decided she would walk out to the beach and have a look around.
"Missy Princess can I comes with yous?" Glen asked as he shimmied from one foot to another in his inpatients.
"Not in the broad daylight Glen." Queen Paula said as she lifted him up and smiled at him.
"Buts nobodies out theres." He pouted.
Just then a blond headed woman was spotted on the beach walking towards the only other house on the beach which was about a quarter of a mile down from them.
Glen just harrumphed and crossed his arms like a petulant child.
"I's hide, nobodies see mes. Please?" he turned and looked at Spencer with pleading eyes.
"Okay, come here." Spencer said as she grabbed her shoulder bag that Glen could ride in and not be seen. Paula helped him into the bag and she turned and kissed Spencer on the cheek.
"Have a good time my darlings and we will have something rather nice for dinner waiting for you when you get back." Paula said as she walked them to the door.
"Why do you coddle that imp?" Mary asked as she came out of her bedroom. "He's here to serve us not the other way around." She said.
"I told you Spencer has a soft spot for him." Paula replied as she went into the kitchen.
"She's not the only one I see." Mary replied while watching Paula dig through the fridge. "What are you doing dear?" she asked.
"I'm trying to find something for dinner." Paula replied.
"Why bother, why don't we just use some magic and produce a dinner fit for royalty such as our selves."
"Mother we are trying to blend in with the humans and that means no magic." Paula said as she brought her head out of the fridge and looked at her mother.
"If you say so." Mary said as she turned away from the kitchen and walked towards the patio door. "Why would you consider this a vacation?" she asked no one in particular.
"Mother I know I said this was for us to get to know each other and that it was probably a good idea if you came, but if you really don't want to be here then why don't you just go home. I'm sure Spencer wouldn't mind. After all it's not like you guys really know each other any ways so I don't see why you should make the effort now." Paula said as she looked out towards the beach besides her mother.
"Are you trying to be sarcastic dear, if you are it doesn't suite you." Mary said as she made her way to her bedroom just before she shut the door she turned back to Paula and said. "You didn't ask dear you practically ordered me to come." Then she shut the door.
Paula wiped her brow with her hand and shook her head. "What was I thinking?" she said to her self as she headed back into the kitchen and looked around for something edible. When she couldn't figure out how to boil water she looked around to see if anyone was watching then she mumbled a spell and a platter of small sandwiches appeared before her. "Who will know?" she said under her breath to her self as she picked up the platter and put it into the fridge.

Ch.3
Several Days Later:
Ashley was being bombarded by Madison and Kyla to go out to a club run by Jesse the Alpha of the Sun Clan Were's. It seems one Kyla Davies has a crush on him and that they have been IMing each other for the last couple of months and Kyla was kind of nervous about seeing him in person for the first time.
She didn't see anything wrong with going out after all what was she going to do sit home feeling sorry for herself. What happened to her, the player the Casanova, the lover of women?
Hell these days she acted more like a nun then a virile Were.
So it was probably a good thing that she said yes with going out with the girls. Aiden wasn't too happy with them as they were making it a girl's night out and he couldn't go with them. She would see how long he could hold out until he was at the club dry humping with Madison. She bet it would be less then an hour, Kyla said it would be two hours, and Madison said her baby knew better then to mess with her good time and he wouldn't show up at all. Of course that just caused Kyla and me to laugh, and all she could do was glare at us.
So here we were out side the club, I had talked to Christine before I came down and she wanted me to sniff around and see if Jesse and his clan could still be counted on. In other words she had heard some grumbling about being replaced as leader of all the Were's and she wanted to know if Jesse and his clan were in on it or if they were still loyal to the Silver Back Clan.
She figured she could check him out see if he was still loyal then see what kind of guy he was for Kyla. She didn't think she would have any problems seeing as Kyla knew every little thing there was about the poor guy. She ran every possible search bar about the guy she even knew what kind of underwear he wore. (Joe Boxers) She knew when his birthday was and what his favorite food was to eat. (Back strap of a deer) She even knew his favorite color. (Green) But she couldn't get a handle on his personality, she may have been extremely smart, but she spent most of her time either at the morgue or in her lab so she wasn't really a good judge of character so that was why she wanted Madison and Ashley to meet him and see if he was hiding anything from her. She highly doubted it but one never knew some one until you walked in there shoes for awhile but she figured she would give it a try seeing as Kyla was tired of dating tech geeks and morgue attendants…
'One could only take so much of ones job before they wanted to kill someone for just mentioning what the latest scrapings from under a victims nails were, and why it was so fascinating. What's so fascinating about that when you're suppose to be out on a date with someone you're supposedly interested in….' she had said before she let it drop and asked if we would come and meet him with her or not.
###############################################
So here she was walking with her head down when she had the feeling someone was staring at her. She glanced up and everything else around her dropped away as she only had eyes for a blond blue eyed beauty just standing on the sidewalk staring back at her. It had to be the girl from her dreams she just knew it. She was so transfixed on her that she paid no mind when she stumbled over thin air and Kyla and Madison grabbed her by the arms and drug her towards the entrance. She yanked her arm away from them as they went into the club and looked back over her shoulder before she could get through the door she bounced off the frame and boy did she become embarrassed so embarrassed that she could feel her cheeks burning as she rushed into the club and got lost in the throng of people.

Spencer was outside a club on a busy sidewalk waiting. She was waiting for the love of her life, one Ashley Marie Davies. It had been so long since she had seen her that it hurt her heart to even think of it.
Then she saw her, and everything else around her dropped away.
I was standing outside the club on the sidewalk when I noticed Ashley coming this way with Kyla and Madison trailing behind her. She didn't look like her usual exuberant self. She looked run down and weary to the bone. She was smiling and talking but she was putting up a front for those around her. I could tell all this in those few short seconds that I had looked upon her. I looked around to see if anyone else noticed that I was staring when Ashley looked up and our eyes met and an electrical charge went through my entire being then I only had eyes for her as I devoured her. She felt it to, for in that exact instance she stumbled but was caught by Madison and Kyla and drug towards the club entrance, but before she could get all the way through the door she looked back at me and bounced off the door frame. She looked up and blushed then she rushed into the club.
I looked over my shoulder to see if anyone was following me then I mumbled "The Powers That Be may have made Ashley agree to an ending, but they never said that I couldn't create a new one." I smiled then followed Ashley into the club.
The doorman followed her with his eyes as she made her way into the club.
###############################################
So now here I was sitting at the bar trying to get Ashley to notice me. At first I didn't think that it would be so hard seeing as she nearly gave her self a concussion at the entrance but low and behold Ashley was holed up in a dark corner of the bar not making eye contact with anyone. Every now and then one of the tramps would make there way over to her and then they would walk away with a dejected look on their faces. That would bring a smile to my face, knowing that Ashley had turned them down. Now if only I could get Ashley to come over here, because I knew that if I went over there I would be turned away with the rest of them, for Ashley never once looked up into any of their faces.
###############################################
Ashley was sitting in the corner of the bar trying to figure out what was wrong with her after all she was a good looking Were that had a lot of offers for several dates and few just wanted a quick romp in the sack but she had no such desire to do so. Of course she blamed it all on the women.
What other reason could there be, I mean it was what six or so months ago that she went cold turkey, no loving, no sex, and why, all because she couldn't get her dream lover out of her head. Dream Lover really?
Dream Lover. That fit her dream person to a tee. She had even felt like she was seeing her dream lover in person outside the club but how could that be if she was a figment of her imagination…not a real person.
"I vote for the red headed one." Said Kyla, as she scooted into the booth alongside Ashley.
"What?" Ashley said as she was startled out of her musings.
"The red headed girl over by the bar…." Kyla said as she turned and looked at Ashley. "…you know…" she said as she waved her hand towards said woman. "…the one that Aiden would say looked ready for anything." She finished.
"Ya, chica I bet she isn't even wearing any panties." Madison said as she came up to the table and over heard what Kyla had said.
Kyla shook herself and said. "That's just…"
"Hot.." Madison said
"…"
"Sexy…" purred Madison
"…"
"Ready for action…" Madison said again as she waved her hand in front of her face trying to cool off.
"If I didn't know better I would say you were the one interested in the ladies." Ashley said as she smirked at Madison.
Madison just smirked back and flipped Ashley off.
"Not on your best day." Ashley said
"You wish." Replied Madison.
"Only in your dreams." Said Ashley.
".." Kyla put her hand over Madison's mouth.
"If I could get a word in…." Kyla said as she looked around at Ashley and then Madison. "That's convenient." She said as she smirked at her sister. About that time Madison licked her palm. "Gross." Kyla said as she wiped her palm on Ashley's sleeve.
Ashley punched her in her arm.
"Sibling abuse…" said Kyla as she looked around the bar.
"Sibling abuse…why I out to…" Ashley trailed off as she caught a glimpse of blond hair over at the bar. Could it be her dream lover once again? She shook her head and looked again. She was still there; maybe it wasn't a dream after all she thought to her self as she continued staring at the vision of beauty sitting at the bar.
"Ashley?" Madison said. When she didn't get a response she snapped her fingers in front of Ashley's face.
"W what?" Ashley replied as she snapped back into reality and looked up kind of angrily at her.
"I said dance with me." Madison said again as she looked Ashley in the eyes.
"You should have let Aiden come it you wanted to dance." Ashley said as she looked back up to the bar to see if her dream lover was still there and as her luck would have it she wasn't.
"It's girls night and you know how he'd get if I danced with anther guy…" she said as she grabbed Ashley's hand and hauled her out of the booth. "…so dance with me." she finished as Ashley yanked her hand away from her.
"You so want me." She said as she strutted to the dance floor and started dancing, Madison just looked at her then she shook her head and started dancing as well in few minutes Kyla joined in and they just started letting loose. There were more then a few appreciative glances their way but they ignored them as they continued to dance to the beat.
###############################################
They were so primitive out on the dance floor and more then once I found my self drawn to them. They looked like goddesses dancing in the middle of the club. Everyone else seemed to stop dancing and just gave them space as they stared at the girls in the middle of the dance floor. More then one male showed a little too much interest and their dates rushed off the floor. Some just stood around drooling and making rude comments like the one standing behind me.
"I would so love to be the cream that held all that together." He said to his friend as I elbowed him in the stomach and feigned innocence.
"I'm so sorry." I said as I turned towards him. "I didn't see you there."
"No problem sweetie, how about a drink and you can make it up to me?" he said with what he thought was a roguish smile.
I couldn't help the shiver of revulsion that went through me at the thought of what I could do to make it up to him, but to him he must have seen something else as he grabbed my elbow and tried to lead me to the bar.
'Why that no good son of a bitch.' I thought to myself, just before he was made to let go of me.
"I don't think the lady wants to go with you." Was said by my savior, "and that's my girl and her friends your talking about on that there dance floor."
"So what, I wasn't interested in them anyways, I got me a looker right here." He said as he leered at me and took a step towards me as I took a step back as my rescuer stepped between us, and it turned out to be Aiden.
"Well it looks like you've got no one now, so I suggest you call a cab and go home." Aiden said as he turned towards me. "Are you all right?" he asked with a little sympathy as he noticed I was rubbing my elbow.
"Yes, thank you for your help. I'm Spencer." I said as I put my hand out.
He took it and shook it. "Aiden." He said as he continued. "I saw what you did to that guy and I got to tell you that was awesome." He said with a twinkle in his eyes.
"What in the world do you mean?" I said with all the innocence she could muster as she looked at him.
"Well only a chick…." He started to say and stopped when he saw the look in her eyes.
"girl?" he asked as I continued to glare at him.
He cleared his throat and tried again. "I mean a woman…" I smiled and nodded at him as he continued, "…ya that's what I meant only a woman could get away with elbowing some guy and then batting their eye lashes with a sexy smile….."
"What do you mean sexy?" Madison said as she had noticed Aiden over here talking to a blond chick, so she made her way over to them and pushed her way in between us.
"I..I didn't mean sexy as in sexy." He said as he looked towards me for some help.
"Well, what did you mean?" Madison said as she put her hands on her hips and stomped her foot and glared at him.
"Well…" he started to say as he started sweating.
I took pity on him as I stepped forward and introduced my self to Madison. "Hi, I'm Spencer." I said. "And Aiden just helped me out of a bind with a not so sober male."
Madison looked between us then she shook my hand and introduced her self. "Well that's my man always to the rescue." She said as she wrapped her arms around his waste as if to say hands off.
"Yes yes all yours and no one else's." he said as he embraced her and kissed her head.
"Well thanks for the assist; I guess I'll be seeing you around." I said as I waved and made my way back to the bar.
###############################################
"That wasn't nice." Aiden said as he looked at Madison.
"Well she was poaching my man." She said.
"She wasn't I swear we were just talking and she was thanking me…." He looked back the way Spencer had went and then continued. "Besides I think she plays for the same team that Ashley plays for."
"How so?" asked Madison.
"When I came over she was staring at you guys as if you were lunch, when that scumbag made a comment about him wanting to be the cream that held you all together she elbowed him right in the rib cage." He shook his head. "It was a little funny until he grabbed her arm and told her that she could make it up to him."
"Well we'll see, now come dance with me my romeo." She said as she drug him to the dance floor. "And don't think that I forgot that you weren't suppose to be here," She said as she started grinding up against him. "Or that sexy comment." She said with a smile when she felt him move up right against her and move with her.
"Never." He said as he placed his hands on her hips and started grinding into her.
###############################################
Ashley and Kyla made their way back to the booth and sat down. Ashley waved over a waitress and placed her order and the waitress turned and looked at Kyla.
"Nothing for now." She said as the waitress turned back to Ashley and winked then made her way over to the bar.
"Well, who's going to be the lucky girl to go home with you and break your dry spell?" Kyla asked as she looked back to Ashley with a smirk on her face.
"No one." Ashley replied.
"What?" Kyla asked.
"I don't feel like it." Ashley said as she glanced around the bar again in a bored fashion.
About that time Aiden and Madison plopped down across from them at the booth.
"What are we talking about?" Madison asked as she placed her hand on Aiden's knee.
"We were just talking about who Ashley was going to take home." Kyla said.
"Really?" asked Aiden with a gleam in his eyes, he rubbed his hands together in a gleeful manner. "Who's it going to be?" he asked as he started looking around for potential candidates.
"No one." Ashley said with a glare at Kyla, a little more then agitated that her sex life was being talked about like it was an open book.
"No one." Repeated Aiden with a fallen expression.
"Chica," Madison said as she scooted over to Ashley. "If this keeps up I think you should see a doctor about your libido or lack there of." She said as she glanced towards Ashley's lap with a pointed stare.
Ashley glared at Madison. "There's nothing wrong with my libido, thank you very much." She said as she took a napkin and covered her lap. "And stop staring." She said.
"If that's not the problem then what is?" asked Aiden.
"I…I don't really know. The closest I've come with an answer is it's all the women." She looked around at the confused faces of her friends and sister.
"What do you mean it's the women's fault?" Asked Kyla as she was listening to her sister to see if there was anything she could gleam about what was wrong with her, because it wasn't like Ashley to go for to long with out sex.
"I guess I mean their just boring, they all look alike and they all want the same thing." She said as she continued. "Namely a piece of me." She said as she looked down at the table.
"What's wrong with that?" asked Aiden as Madison glared at him. "Your in your prime you should take the time and enjoy the attention." He said "Take a look around you, let your eyes feast on all the women here." He said as he stared at one particular girl to long and Madison hit him in the stomach.
"What?" he asked.
"Keep your eyes feasted on me." She said as she looked back towards Ashley.
"Always." He replied which brought a smile to her face.
"Well back to topic." She said as she cleared her throat. "Don't you see anyone here that might help to lift your spirits so to speak?" she asked.
"No they all look alike to me." She stated. "Not a fresh face in sight." She said as she looked around.
"I always thought you were an ass girl." Aiden said with a snicker as Madison smacked the back of his head.
Ashley chose to ignore the comment considering Aiden was right she could appreciate a nice ass just like the rest of them, but something had been missing for awhile now and she just couldn't really put her finger on it.
"Take a look around, surly there is someone here that can tickle your fancy." Kyla interrupted once again.
Draining her drink in one gulp she placed her glass down before she looked around the club again. She dismissed each woman as she came to them, not seeing anything to her liking. None of them even got the slightest rise out of her until her eyes landed on a curvaceous blond bomb shell in a tight little number standing at the bar, she let her eyes wonder over her body and when they reached her bottom she came to a complete stop and just stared. The fabric of said dress draped over the bottom showing each delectable curve in heart stopping detail. She was all hot and bothered just thinking about what was under that dress that she all but phased out the bar around her.
"Her" she growled out, which caused everyone to turn and look where she was looking. "I want her." Ashley said as she stood up and started over towards the bar before anyone could stop her.

ch.4
"Her" she growled out, which caused everyone to turn and look where she was looking. "I want her." Ashley said as she stood up and started over towards the bar before anyone could stop her.
###############################################
Spencer grabbed the hem of her dress and tried to make it go down farther then four inches from her crotch, which was why she was sitting at the bar, when she stood up the dress tried to come up and you could see everything. 'Why did I let Glen of all people help pick out my outfit?' She shook her head, because she wanted to look good for Ashley that was why. What good did that do? Here she was and Ashley was over on the other side of the bar ignoring every one that even came her way.
Two separate men and one brutish looking woman had tried to proposition her and if one more tried she would punch him or her right in the kisser. She looked down at her breast and canceled that idea seeing as she would probably come out of her top if she did that. Maybe she could kick them but the thought of what would happen to her dress if she tried that made her shudder. It wasn't so bad at first she didn't expect so many people to hit on her and then when she got to looking around she noticed some of the more pointed stares that she was getting from some of the patrons in the bar.
She was just about ready to go home. She was tired and she didn't think Ashley would take the time to notice her seeing as she was now talking to her friends and sister. She just wished that she could hear what was being said over there but seeing as she was in the mortal realm and she had relinquished all her magical abilities at the portal and she didn't have any faerie dust with her at the moment that idea was impossible. Needless to say she was impotent. Yep, that's what she was impotent. No magical abilities what so ever. She probably couldn't even stop a fly from biting her if she tried.
Just then a scholarly figure walked up to her and asked how much for half an hour in the rest room. She squeezed her fist closed at her sides, if one more person tried to proposition her before she had the chance to leave she just might consider it an emergency and use what little energy she could absorb around her….she couldn't think like that, she had to get out of here. She gave up tugging on the dress and made her way over towards the back wall. She turned to face the room as she serendipitously began pulling her dress down in the back over her ass which caused her breast to dangerously peak out in the front. She figured that she could slide along the wall and get to the exit and catch a cab back to the beach house, then she would burn said dress, and possibly kill Glen in the process.
She was almost at the exit when a gravely voice next to her ear said. "Well well, what do we have here?" That voice she had missed that voice, it was a mixture of gravel and honey and it sent tingles all across her body which made her breast stand at attention and peak out of her dress.
###############################################
Ashley looked down at said breast and took a long slow whiff. She smelled musky and sweet yet rich and creamy an earthy at the same time. 'Hell' she thought she just smelled edible. She felt a rumble in her chest as she said "I thought you could stay awhile and talk with me." as she pressed herself into Spencer's personal space again and took another whiff. Her scent was so over powering to her senses that she thought she might just pass out from it. She watched as the nipples beaded under the fabric of the dress and peeked out as if to say hello. She took another small step closer and brought both of their chests together so that she could feel those pebbled jewels against her own chest. She growled low in her chest once again when she came in contact with them.
She looked into those pools of blue, and couldn't help the feeling of recognition that she got as she looked on this glorious creature that she was almost certain that they had met before. 'But where?' That was the million dollar question, as everything around her became black and white but the beauty before her that she just knew that she must have known in another life because surly if she had met her in this one then they wouldn't be standing in the middle of this club. They'd be in her bed, and they wouldn't be sleeping.
"I thought we could spend a little time together, maybe have a nice breakfast." Ashley said as she leaned back a little and gave a seductive smile that would make most women putty in her hands.
###############################################
I couldn't believe what I was hearing, Ashley being all…..cocky, and I couldn't help my body's reaction to her. It was as plain as the nose on my face and to any one that was watching I was completely attracted to her and it was all I could do not to become a puddle right here on the floor for all to see, but I didn't want to rush our reunion so that will have to wait for another time.
I looked around, I needed to slow this down because if I didn't I couldn't be held responsible for what would happen. I looked towards the exit but Ashley seemed to sense what I was thinking as she wrapped her arms around my waist.
"Wait, I just want to talk." she said sheepishly.
I looked in her eyes and I could see that was a lie she wanted so much more and I didn't really want to say no. I know that we needed to talk but I also know that I had to get out of there or something more then talking would happen, but damn it, it felt like I was about to cut off a limb.
"I really need to go." I said as she looked at me with those soulful brown eyes of hers as they hardened with something I couldn't place.
"Why? It wouldn't happen to be a man…" she let it trail off before continuing, "…or possibly a woman?" she asked with a scowl.
I couldn't help my response. "Why what's it to you?" I asked.
Ashley responded by pulling me closer as she planted one of her hands on my hip and the other on my behind pressing me into her as she gyrated her hips a little at the same time.
This time I moaned low in my throat. I was just about a goner.
"I would really like to make you my business." She growled. "That means I would like to know if I need to get rid of someone so that I can convince you to spend time with me." She ended her little rant with a swirl of her hips and a hand on my bottom squeezing me into her a little tighter.
I couldn't stop myself as I stepped back and pushed Ashley back and then I couldn't stop said hand as it slid down her well formed abs and down over the band of her pants then I just stopped as Ashley went completely still and looked at me with hunger in her eyes. Before I knew what was happening Ashley had me over her shoulder and out the exit and we were at least three blocks away from the club before I even realized where I was.
She put me down and then she started stalking me like I was her prey.
I tripped over my own feet as we were now along the beach. "Oomf?" came out as I landed on the sand, before I knew what was happening she was upon me. She straddled me and leaned down and started nibbling my neck. I yelped in surprise as her hot breath scalded me, but when her mouth closed over where my mark was suppose to be and she scraped her teeth over it, it sent shivers down my entire body, which caused a whimper to escape from my lips as I stretched my neck to give her easier access.
A growl escaped from Ashley as she wedged her knee between my legs and forced them apart and then raised her knee up to force the hem of my dress up, the dress abandoned all pretense as a cover and rolled up with out much fuss as her knee came in contact with my center and I let out a gasp of surprise.
Ashley growled in satisfaction as her hand went around my thighs and cupped them and forced my legs around her waist as she applied intimate pressure with her hips.
'Moving to fast.' I tried to kick start my brain. 'Need to stop' I thought as her hips continued to grind into me.
I didn't think I could become this aroused in so short a time. 'But again this is Ashley.' Was one of my last thoughts when I felt one of her hands glide along the inside of my thigh until she cupped my center with her hand and applied pressure. She then claimed my mouth and forced her tongue in and dueled with my tongue for dominance. I became light headed from all the stimuli my body was receiving from such a long absence.
I couldn't stop my body when it pressed down upon her fingers, 'Traitor.' I thought as I tried to reign it in.
"Ashley, please." I said but I don't know if it was me begging for more or if I wanted her to stop. "Please." I said once again as she continued to explore with her hand as her mouth moved to my neck and she began nibbling it.
Ashley growled once again even more animalistic then before and instead of being afraid what anyone in my position should me I gloried in it, knowing that I was the reason for it.
I buried my fingers in her hair and pressed her head closer to my neck, but that wasn't her destination as she lowered her head to my dresses neck line and grabbed it between her teeth and yanked until in was ripped off of me leaving my breast bare for her to feast upon.
She raised her head and her eyes were a golden color as she lowered her head and began teasing my breast with her tongue and teeth.
'I need this to stop. I can't let her think this is just any other fuck. She needs to know that this is for life. That we belong together. That she belongs to me as I belong to her.' I tried once again to clear my head. "Ashley, we need to talk….."
"No talk, mate." She growled as she lowered her head once again and claimed my mouth in another onslaught of who can gain control, I could feel her and oh so how I wanted to relent, but I know I couldn't as I arched into her as her mouth moved down and sucked on my nipple as if her life depended on it. I moaned as my soul ached to be claimed once again.
All I wanted was to pull her into to me and to never let go. She continued to suck with a blinding fury as if she would stop her onslaught she might lose me. Her elongated teeth nipped and teased my nipples into hard peak, her other hand abandoned me down below as it reached up and played with my other breast. It was tugging and teasing and it was making me crazy. I arched into her once again wanting it all.
Her free hand began a lazy journey back down to my center she stopped and then dipped her finger in slightly then came back out and continued to fondle me.
That jerked me back to the present. I leaned up on my elbows as I looked down and watched her head work its way down my body. I shook my head and then dug my heels in as I tried scooting out from under her. "Ashley we have to stop…." I tried, "…we have to talk." I said as I scooted from off under her, she grabbed my hips and roughly shoved me back under her.
"No talk." She said and she almost couldn't form the words. "Mine."
I wanted to say yours, but if I said that it would all be for nothing. She needed to understand, 'Hell I wished I understood.' I thought. "Stop" I said a little roughly. "Please."
Ashley shook her head as if coming out of a stupor and she looked around herself as if just noticing where we were at. She jumped off of me as if she was scalded and fell on her butt as if in shock.
"Ashley?" I said as I looked at her. She wouldn't look me in the eyes.
Her head was down as she replied. "I'm so sorry." She said as she took her vest off and handed it to me ashamed of what she had done.
"Ashley, look at me." I demanded.
I could tell that she felt guilty, but I had to let her know that I wanted this as much as she did. "Ashley?" I said once again as I scooted towards her and I tried to cup her cheek as she flinched away then she let me stroke her cheek. She leaned into my touch then ripped her head away as she jumped up and shook her head as she released a low grumble.
"I need to get away…." She said, "….if I don't I won't be responsible for my actions she said as she started to turn I reached out and grabbed her hand and pulled her into me. As our bodies became flushed against each other I could feel her respond as she molded herself to me.
Her head once again found its place at my throat as she inhaled deeply than I felt her tongue as it snaked out and licked me.
"Taste so good." She moaned as my body tried to respond once again. 'Think of Kelly and what she did to that poor girl.' That worked better then ice cold water.
"A..Ashley?" I mumbled. "Please….." I let it trail off as she kissed over where our mark was supposed to be again then she grazed it with her teeth.
"You taste so good…" she purred. "I can't help myself, I'm addicted to you." She started to tug me down again.
"…."
I heard something but I didn't know what it was it was so far away.
"…"
There it was again. Only this time I could make it out.
"Ashley."
Someone was coming up to us. I didn't want to open my eyes but I had to as they got closer.
"Ashley?" It was Kyla.
I ripped my mouth away from Ashley's as I looked over her shoulder and I let a moan out again as Ashley's mouth closed over my nipple once again.
"Ashley, we..we..O God…have to stop." I said as I grabbed her hair and tried pulling her off me. "Cc..c…company, we have company."
She ripped her mouth from me and lifted her head as she looked around.
The next thing I knew was a cold absence as she jumped to her feet and stood protectively in front of me growling low in her chest as she partially transformed and dared any one to come close.
Kyla, Aiden, and Madison all stopped in their tracks and raised their hands in surrender.
"Ashley?" Kyla tried to get through to her.
Ashley took a threatening step forward. "Mine…" she rumbled out as she bared her teeth.
I stood up and pulled what was left of my dress down and buttoned up the vest. I reached forward and placed a hand on Ashley's forearm. She looked down at me with her golden eyes that were full of…do I dare to hope recognition and love. We stared into each others eyes for what felt like a life time.
Then of course Aiden took a step forward and partially transformed, that just made Ashley whip her head forward and then she decided that he was to close and she jumped towards him with her claws fully extended and teeth bared as saliva drained from her pointed teeth.
###############################################
Chapter 5
Madison stopped Aiden in his tracks. "What do you think you are doing?" she asked as she yanked him by his ear.
He whimpered and changed back to the man that he was, but seeing as Madison still had a hold of his ear he was right up in her face when he replied. "Nothing, dear."
That didn't stop Ashley as she came towards him with her claws extended. "Where do you think your going?" Spencer asked as she grabbed her tail and yanked backwards which caused Ashley to land on her butt in the sand and then she turned her head around and started to snap at the hand that had a hold on her when she looked up and noticed that it was her blue eyed angel. She whimpered and gave her best pout which really came out looking like a scowl. So she stopped and sulked in place when it didn't work.
"Buaw ahahahahah" Aiden laughed as he pointed at her. "OW!" he exclaimed as he rubbed the back of his head. "What was that for?"
Madison had already released his ear when he started laughing at Ashley, but that didn't stop her from hitting him in the back of the head when he started laughing at her. "Don't you know better than to laugh at a Were defending its property? She will be come quite aggressive if provoked."
"Property?" I asked as I looked around at everyone here.
Madison just looked at me and Kyla glared, but Aiden he had a sparkle in his eye
"Not to mean your property, as more then your body, guarding I mean, making sure that no one comes near you" Madison quickly added in explanation mode as she looked at Kyla for help.
"Ya, she's so whipped already and she doesn't even know it." Aiden said before he was hit in the gut by the love of his life. "Umph." He looked back up at Madison and he had to force a smile as he looked at her.
All of the sudden Kyla turned and looked at her with a tilt of her head. "Why aren't you afraid?" she asked with a crinkle between her eyes in thought, almost as if she didn't expect and answer.
"Afraid?" what is this with replying in one word lines.
Kyla tilted her chin towards Ashley who was now more calm and looking at Spencer for an answer to the question but she was still looking at the others making sure they didn't get to close.
Spencer cleared her throat in an exaggerated manner, before petting Ashley's arm, "Ah, nice doggy."
Ashley just looked at Spencer and glared.
I couldn't believe I had forgotten that most humans didn't know about Were's and shape shifters and were always afraid of the unknown. I wasn't sure how I was going to get my self out of this when Aiden broke the stand off. I could kiss him, but seeing that Madison is in protect mode at the moment I'll just let it pass.
Aiden snickered and ducked his head as Madison tried once again to hit his head. He looked up at her in victory then hollered out "Ow!" He turned and glared at Kyla who had just hit him in the head and was smirking at him.
I just started giggling and I was nudged by Ashley who had transformed back into a human and then she pushed me over in the sand and then she decided to climb into my lap. Then she snuggled into my neck where she started licking and nibbling my neck. I was lost to anyone else as I stretched my neck to give her access when someone cleared their throat yet again. Really you'd think they'd get the hint. 'Leave already' I thought as Ashley cracked an eye and looked towards the unwelcome visitors.
"Why are you still here?" she asked as she licked my neck once more.
"Jesse showed up and was wondering if you had a moment." Kyla said as she stepped forward and took the brunt of her sister's glare off the other two.
Ashley shook her head as she stood back up and then she looked down at her self and spread her arms wide while shaking her head as she turned towards me and offered me her hand.
I grasped it as she hauled me up and we came chest to chest once again. I could feel a rumble come off her as she leaned backwards and eyed me up and down languidly with her dark brown eyes, and then she leaned forward and placed a chaste kiss to my lips before saying, "This isn't over."
When I opened my eyes they were gone. I could have followed them if I wanted but I decided we needed a little break, or better yet I needed a little break. Between Ashley and her wolfie side I didn't know which way was up, and I doubted she did, seeing the way she was acting. It was hard for her the first time trying to fight off our attraction. I can't imagine how it must be this time. It seems like her animalistic side wants me no question barred, but it's a little confusing to her human side.
I looked around and decided to walk the rest of the way to the beach house.

Meanwhile back at the club, fifteen minutes later, Ashley and her cohorts were talking to Jesse in his office.
"He said he was a distant relative of yours, and he wanted to invoke his right to be Beta of the whole clan." Jesse finished
Ashley's response was pithy but accurate. "Shit!"
"What did he say his name was?" Kyla asked as she looked towards Ashley.
"Jacob." Jesse replied.
"Jacob. Why that snot nosed little shit." Aiden snapped out.
"So you know him?" Jesse asked
"Yes….he's a…distant…relative." Kyla replied
"Very distant…" Ashley snarled out. "….and if I have anything to say about it he won't be distant long…he'll be extinct."
"Wait, you don't know what he has planned." Kyla said as she placed her arm on Ashley to stop her from leaving the office in search of Jacob.
"I can imagine." Ashley said as she waved her hand in a dismissive manner. "He wants a fight to the death, not like I didn't whoop his ass every time he tried to get fresh with me when I was younger, but that is the only way he can become Beta is if we fight to the death and he wins." Ashley rubbed her hands together, "You know what let him bring it on I'll whoop him in five minutes flat and then we can forget this whole deal."
"Not so….." Jesse says.
"Wait…..what?" Ashley asked as she turned around to face him. "What do you mean….not so?"
"He called for a Howl at the next full moon." Jesse said.
"Who does he think he is? He can't call for a Howl, I can't even call for a Howl, only the Alpha can call a Howl." Ashley said.
"I don't think he's going to challenge you." Jesse said.
"Well, what do you think he means to do?" she asked.
"He mentioned something about Breeder Rights." Jesse replied.
"You mean that old stodgy Lupine Common Law?" Kyla asked.
"Breeder Law?" Madison and Aiden asked at the same time.
"It's an old law that has stuck around since the Dark Ages when the humans hunted us down a little too successfully." She looked around to make sure she had everyone's attention. "It was put in place to ensure our survival as a species, the elders of the pack decided that the Alpha and the Beta had to prove themselves and produce the next generation so that our species would survive with strong leaders." She finished.
"So what does that have to do with me?" Ashley asked as she really didn't have time to learn all the old laws as she spent most of her time with more important things to do.
"Well I think he said that you weren't ever going to breed seeing as you were only interested in women and he said that you wouldn't ever breed with another woman seeing as you don't have anything between your legs to impregnate another woman." Jacob said as he practically jumped back as Ashley lunged towards him.
"So he thinks because he impregnated a 2nd rate Omega that he's suddenly the big wolf on the block, I'll show him big bad wolf. I'll rip out his balls and shove them down his throat." Ashley said as she spat out. "And I think I'll start with you."
She started to transform but Kyla squeezed her way in between the two and pushed Ashley back. "He's only the middle man Ashley, you can't hurt him." She said.
"Why not? It'll make me feel better." She snarled as she tried to push Kyla out of the way.
"Well it won't make me feel better." Kyla said
Jesse raised his hand a little sheepishly, "It wouldn't make me feel good either." He said as he looked pleadingly towards Ashley.
Ashley looked between the two. "Alright, I won't do anything at this time, but really I just got to ask." She looked Kyla in the eyes as she arched an eyebrow. "How serious is this?" she said as she gestured between the two.
"It has the potential to become very serious." Kyla replied as she took a step back and grasped Jesse's hand in between hers and stood up a little straighter.
Ashley smiled as she took a small step forward and wrapped her sister in a tight hug.
"Like, hasn't he ever heard of artificial insemination?" Madison asked as the two sister's separated.
"Yea, or how about a donor?" Kyla added
"Or what about adoption?" Aiden asked.
"You know what? Fuck Breeder Rights. If the asshole can't challenge me like the Were that he is then he sure as hell can't be Beta to one of the most powerful Alpha's in our time. Besides, Christine wouldn't have him." Ashley said as she looked at everyone.
"Hey we're on your side." Kyla said as she looked at her sister. "But Breeder Rights hold a lot of sway with the pack especially the elders seeing as traditions die hard for Were's if you hadn't noticed by know." She finished with her arms wide.
"What should I do then?" Ashley asked "Bend over for the next available Were and let him impregnate me?" she said as she crossed her arms.
"You know what you can do with your sarcasm don't you?" Kyla asked. "And for your information all I can tell you to do is tread carefully, because this has the potential to blow up in your face, and when it does you will more then likely take the rest of us down with you."
"It sounds like it would be easier if you were already mated, whether or not you had a cub." Madison added.
"It would make it a lot easier." Kyla said as she crossed her arms over her chest.
Ashley stopped in her tracks not ready to let the others know that she was mated to her dream lover, 'Fuck, I didn't get her name.' she thought to herself. She wasn't ready to share her just yet. 'Hell I need to get my possessiveness under control.' Ashley smirked as she tried to force her mind away from the sexy blond she left on the beach as she gritted her teeth to get control.
"If you were mated, they would have to give you at least a year to prove yourself a virile Were….in other words if you were a male you could get her pregnant or vice versa, but seeing that's not possible maybe you could consider a donor and impregnate yourself, that way everything can go back to normal." Kyla finished.
Ashley didn't know what to do seeing as she had to find her mate and try to explain everything to her and see if she was ready for a family, hell she wasn't ready for a family, or to find a total stranger to impregnate her and try to raise a family for the good of the pack. If she had a choice she would chose neither, well that wasn't true, she would chose her dream lover over all this, but what would her dream lover say.
"What are you thinking?" Kyla asked "You have a weird look on your face."
"Ya, it looks like your constipated." Aiden said. "Ow….what I do know?" He asked as he rubbed the back of his head.
"Nothing, but being your self dear." Madison said with a smirk.
"You're thinking about that human. Aren't you?" Jesse asked. "Not that I blame you, she was hot and she smelled o so divine." He said as he looked at her.
Ashley growled "What the hell were you doing smelling her?"
Kyla glared at him and then said, "I didn't see you out there? I didn't realize you took an interest in the human clientele in your club?" she said as took a step away from him and turned and looked at Ashley. "And you tell me you're not thinking what you're thinking?"
"It's no concern of yours what I'm thinking." Ashley said as she turned away from Kyla, she was ready to leave and besides she needed to find her dream lover and get her name as well as a little loving.
"It is my business if you plan on taking a human as a mate and that makes it pack business as well." She replied as she grabbed Ashley by the arm and turned her back around to face her. "Besides you just met this woman, and the rest of the pack won't like having a human as the next in line to be the, what should we call her because if something happens to Christine you become Alpha so I guess we can call her Alpha number two. You know as well as I do that they won't stand for that."
Ashley ripped her arm away from Kyla and let out a warning growl. "You know better then I she will be called Omega and I don't care what the pack thinks never the less the elders, Christine will tell them what to think and that will be the end of that." Her growl held a world of tension in it.
"Sorry." Kyla said with a head bow "But you know that power corrupts humans and they begin to think that they can control what they don't understand, at least that is what the elders believe, and beside the pack would be able to live with it if she was a Were, but she's not. Silverback's have been bred in our family line for more then ten generations, but if you decide to mate with a human there goes the line and the elders support."
"What the hell do I care for the elders support?"
"You might not care, but Christine is trying to bring all the clans together under one rule.
What do you think she would think of you taking a human as a mate in this difficult time when every Tom Dick and Harry is trying to under mind her? Don't you think she has it hard enough right know being pregnant and all?" Kyla asked.
"Others have taken humans as mates." Ashley tried to defend her self.
"Yes, but those are mongrels, half breeds, and none of the others will follow a mongrel." Kyla said.
"They'll submit if the child is strong and makes them." Ashley said a little arrogantly and unyielding. Especially since fate had already decided who her mate was going to be.
Ashley thought a little bit then shook her head. "If a pup of mine isn't strong enough to lead then he or she shouldn't lead, and really with my blood and my mates good looks do you really think that he or she won't be strong enough to take what is his or hers by right?"
"You're willing to give up tradition for this human?" Kyla asked again.
"Traditions can be changed and made new again over and over, but a mate is permanent." Ashley said.
"Yes, Lupines mate for life, but humans don't. What happens if she decides she doesn't want to be your mate?" Kyla asked.
Everyone in the room was listening closely to the conversation so closely that you could hear a pin drop waiting for Ashley's response.
Ashley's eyes glared dangerously around the room. "She won't."
"It's happened before." Kyla stated.
"Well this won't be like before." Ashley said
"It really doesn't matter to you what I or others think, does it?" asked Kyla
"No."
Ashley knew that her dream lover was her mate and this talk only convinced her of that so much more, if it wasn't for Jacob maybe she would have fought it a little bit more but as it stands her instincts wouldn't let her have another mate so she met her sisters stare with a steady one of her own.
"Does it matter what she says?" Kyla asked.
Ashley thought about if for a minute and her lips curved up into a smile and her nipples hardened under her shirt.
"No" She said as she headed for the door not even thinking that she might be taking things for granted. "It doesn't matter at all." She needed to get out of there and finish what was interrupted on that beach. She needed to mate and she felt sorry for anyone who decided to interrupt her again. Before she left she turned and looked at her sister. "You tell me who called you a mongrel and I will have them skinned." Then she turned and left.
