Brave But Cheated

Changed

Ash

I am currently at the airport with waiting for the plane with discharged soldiers to land. So far, I don't see anyone else here that I recognize. I got a phone call from Dax telling me she was coming home today. She is finally coming home after two years. I landed in America yesterday and their plane is landing soon.

The plane lands and they get set up for the soldiers to come out. Myself along with a bunch of other people head out to the platform. The soldiers are already standing in a grid formation by the time we go out and I can smell the ocean and coconut. I walk fast towards the scent to already see four people standing around her. Who are these guys? She looks up and her eyes meet with mine, I smile at her, but she just looks back down. What happened to her over these last two years?

"Braelynn? Are you okay?" An older man asks. Who the hell is Braelynn? I still can't see any of the faces of the people surrounding her.

"I'm okay Dad. Can we just go home?" She replies, looking at her feet. Her dad is here? I wonder what Alpha he is. Maybe Clark?

"Of course," her father responds.

"Can we come with you Noctis?" Another man around our age wonders.

Noctis nods and they start walking away. What about me?

"Noctis," I call out. She stops walking and slowly turns around to face me, not meeting my eyes.

"Not now Ash," she whispers and turns back to walk away with the group of four.

I can't even begin to describe how hurt I feel right now. Why isn't she talking with me? Who are these other people with her. I walk out, following them to get to my car. I try to get a look at her dad so I know what pack they are at. Noctis hops in the front seat of a nice car and her dad walks around the hood. He looks up at me and to say I am shocked would be an understatement. Her dad is the Alpha King?

Riggs (Alpha King)

I was so devastated when I heard that Braelynn was taken by those rogues and there was nothing I could do. For two years, I was losing hope of ever seeing her again. I got the phone call yesterday that they have found her and are bringing her home. I was over the moon; however, nothing could have prepared me for what she is like now. Myself, Grey, Tobias and Xander came. Cali had to stay home since she is giving birth soon to her first child. We walked up to Braelynn and she just kept her head down and wouldn't let any of us touch her. She had scars on her face now and I don't even want to know how many other scars she has.

She looks up once to something behind us before looking back down. I ask if she is okay and she tells me she is fine, but I know she isn't okay. She just wants to go home and we start walking in the direction of the parking lot. A man calls her name and she turns around without lifting her head.

"Not now Ash," she whispers before walking with us once again.

Who is Ash? Why is he here? Once we get to the car, I open the door for Braelynn and she sits. I close the door and look at the man named Ash who looks at me surprised. I take one last good look at him before getting into the car and driving home.

Tobias

What happened to my strong, confident Noctis? What happened over there? And who the hell is this Ash dude. I am following behind the King in my car with Xander in the passenger seat.

"What do you think happened to her?" Xander wonders.

"Those rogues. They must have done something. What I want to know is how she got away after two years. No one heard about where the rogues were and there was no more attacks once she was caught. These rogue attacks will probably start again."
