Chapter 1064 Alpha Violet and Alpha Ashton (5)

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

Violet looked at Ashton as irritation swelled within her. She didn't want to break the lovey-dovey mood, but his mother had broken it already.

There was a danger of Violet coming out as overbearing and controlling, but leaving this for later was not a good idea because Ashton would think it was fine when it was NOT fine, and he will continue allowing this to happen. This behavior needed to be nipped in the bud, and Violet was ready for nipping.

"I don't want to be a pain in the ass, but this is unacceptable." Violet grabbed his shirt. "You are Alpha Ashton Pascal, my mate, and I have no intention of sharing you, even if the other woman is your mother. Is that clear?"

Her possessiveness turned him on. "Crystal clear."

He went for a kiss, but Violet dodged him.

"Vi?" He called, and her eyes fell on the fruits Luna Michelle brought.

There were grapes, oranges, apples, and strawberries. Everything was washed and cleaned, oranges were peeled, and apples were cut into geometric shapes.

"Be honest with me, Ash. If I'm not here, your mom would feed you."

Ashton didn't respond. 𝙛𝙧𝙚𝙚𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝙢

"Ash?"

"Only if my hands were busy with something else."

Violet couldn't believe this. He was a grown-ass man! "What else does your mother do for you? Prepare you a bath? Wash your back? Irons your underwear?"

Ashton puffed his cheeks as he realized where this was going. "I was not raised by Omegas. Mom was doing all that when I was a kid. I was gone for five years, and other than adjusting to the fact that I have a mate, she needs to adjust to the fact that I grew up. Give her time."

Violet's eyes flashed in anger. "I am Alpha Violet Blake. I don't give anything to people. I take what I want, and I want you to tell me if we have a problem."

Ashton was taken aback. Why was she so angry? "A problem?"

"Don't play stupid, Ash—your mother. I am not used to sharing, and I have no intention of sharing you. Your mother needs to step back, or I will."

Ashton's stomach dropped. Why did that sound like an almost rejection? "What are you saying?"

"If it's any other woman, I would fight her, make her submit. However, this is your mother and your problem. You need to show me you will stand up for me, for us. If you don't, I'm gone. Make your choice. Now." She squeezed that last word through her teeth irritably.

Ashton was quick to wrap his arms around Violet. "Vi, I need you to calm down." Her eyes were flashing in silvery light, and the wind in the room was picking up. "What sharing? There is no such thing. I was only trying to explain my mother's - "

Violet pushed him away angrily. He didn't expect it and ended up stepping backward.

Ashton was about to go back to hugging her, but Violet extended her arms to prevent him from getting closer.

"This is a problem, Ash. Instead of explaining TO ME that I need to be tolerant, you should be talking with your mother."

Violet didn't want to corner him and make him choose; she really didn't. But her wolf was hurting at the thought of their mate codling feelings of another person, and neither Violet nor her wolf cared who the other person was. He didn't put her first. That was enough to hurt.

Violet was never so furious or disappointed.

She imagined her mate would crush everything and everyone that stood between them, and he would do anything to make her happy, and he had done that so far with everyone except with his mother. And not only that, but he was expecting Violet to be understanding and patient while his mother adjusted to this situation. What a joke!

Her eyes filled with angry tears, and she didn't want him to see her like that.

Violet turned on her heel and dashed toward the open window, not caring that they were on the third floor.

"VI!" Ashton shouted and ran after her. By the time he was there, he saw a golden wolf running toward the forest. "Fuck!" He cursed loudly. Now what? Should he talk to his mother or go after Violet?

After a moment of hesitation, Ashton leaped through the window and exploded into his massive gray wolf.

'Vi! VI! Wait!' Ashton shouted through their mind link while struggling to catch up with her.

'I know you can hear me. Please. Wait. WAIT!'

He was running as fast as he could. More than once, he lost sight of her, but he used her scent and the pull of the mate bond to guide him.

'Love, let's talk about this.'

'There is nothing for us to talk about,' she hissed back.

'Yes, there is. I don't want us to fight whenever we disagree.'

'This is a disagreement only if you think it's fine for your mother to disrespect me. Is that what you are saying?'

'Of course not! Can you stop looking for a fight when there is none?'

'We are not fighting! I am angry, and I need to vent. Give me space, or I will release my anger on you, and I don't want that.'

'I'm fine with it, Vi. Use me as your punching bag. It will hurt less than you running away from me.'

This made her slow down. She didn't want to run away, but she didn't want to fight him either.

'I know I'm wrong, Ash. I know I'm unreasonable, but...' She slowed down more, and Ashton caught up to her.

He jumped in front of Violet and blocked her path. 'But?'

Violet shook her furry head.

'Talk to me, Vi,' Ashton pleaded.

She raised her head slowly to meet his gaze. Even as a wolf, he was handsome.

'I don't know how to deal with this, Ash. I can't stand anyone else touching you. I can't stand when you look at another, even if that other is your mom. I need you to be with me. I need you to look at me, only me, and tell everyone else to scram.'

He snorted. 'I feel the same about you, Vi. There will be no touching and no looking other than you. How about that?'

'You can't exclude others from your life.'

'Why not? I have done that for the last five years. The difference is that now I have you.' He approached her slowly and rubbed his head on her neck. 'I waited six years to claim you, Vi. That's six eternities on my calendar. I have no intention of waiting for another minute. I want us to be together all the time. Every second counts. Don't run away from me. If you don't want my mother nearby, I will cut her off.'

'That's not fair.'

'I don't care. The only thing I care about is that you are happy, and I know you are happy when it's just the two of us.'

Violet's eyes widened as the big gray wolf shifted into a shape of a handsome man. She saw Ashton naked many times, but the sight of his muscles and tattoo-covered flesh made her heart speed up.

Now that she was in her wolf form, his scent of carnations was so much stronger than usually; it made her dizzy. It called her to get closer. He was irresistible.
