only for his Queen

Chapter 23

Ashtrids pov
      Today is Friday. Uncle j fly's in this morning. Tomorrow is mine and axels date. And I do not want to get outta bed. Axel is already up and ready. But I want to stay in bed. Uncle j gets here at 10 so we will probably go to school for lunch with the guys. But snobby bitch ain't coming. "Are you going to get ready or stay in bed?" axels voice floats through the air. "Stay in bed. Want to be here when uncle j gets here." I say into the pillow. "Alright well we are gonna get going. I love you." he says kissing my forehead. I freeze and so does he. "I.." I start but axel cuts me off. "Dont... Not till your ready and sure." then he walks out before I can say anything. Grumbling into the pillow I go back to bed.
       
       The ring of my phone wakes me up. "Hey sweetpea. Just wanted to let you know we are landing in 5 minutes." uncle j says. "Wait we are going to her house?" I hear his wife ask. "Yes we are Cheryl.... I told you we were going to my nieces.... She's the only one I have." he says irritated. "I Dont even know how you deal with her." I tell him. "Ill tell the guards to let you in. Ill be in my office. Jared can show her to your room." I say hanging up. I take a shower and get dressed in blue ripped jeans, a camo top with laces over the chest and black laced up heels. Leaving my hair down, to flow down my back.

Then I walk to my office and get everything needed for our meeting on August chick. I have the right mind to say stalker chick.
    I decide to go and get something to drink. And immediately regret it as I hear her voice. "Jon! Why does she have to have so many weapons around!" she yells. "Probably because she runs every mafia know to man." he says bored. "Or because she likes to shot people who get on her nerves." a guard remarks. "Enough." Jared scolds. "Yea enough I have the guns to keep people out so they Dont come in and kill you." I tell her walking around the corner. "Sweetpea!" uncle j exclaims. I run into his arms and he spins me around. Finally he puts me down. "How about I go take a nap, when I get up we go give the boys lunch, and we go to the mall to buy you some things." uncle j says. But when he says mall he really means to his warehouse so I can get more gadgets for my collection. "Anything new?" I ask almost excited. "Oh yeah sweet pea." he says smirking. "Hell yeah!" I fist pump the air and skip off. "Jared will show you to your rooms." I say in a sing song voice. "Where is it at this time?" I hear him ask. "In the guest house." Jared answers. The guest house is about a football field plus some away from the main house. I hear uncle j laugh and I just know he is shaking his head. Grabbing a water bottle I go back upstairs but instead of to my desk. I go to read a book. Picking a random book off a random shelf. I sit down on the window seat and start reading.

       "Ash you ready to go?" uncle j asks from the door. Looking up, I put down the book i was reading and walk to him. "Yup. What are we taking?" I ask. "Gonna stop and get burgers." he says. "Alright."
     We walk outside to the car and leave. Grab burgers, fries, and drinks for everyone. Then we drive to the school. The sight I saw in front of me turned my blood into fucking lava. Slowly I stalk toward the table and drop the bag. Not taking my eyes off them. Not a yard away axel and August are talking. But she's a bit to close for my liking. And by that I mean she damn near has him against the tree they are standing next to. "Look i love ashtrid. She's my world. My queen. So I'm sorry but we can't be friends." axel says. Why can't they be friends? "Oh so just because she doesn't like me your not going to be friends with me?" she asks. "August im not going to be friends with you because if she doesn't like you then theres a good reason. I trust her with my life." axel responds before walking over to the table. My back is to him and im closest to him. I feel his arms wrap around my waist and I lean into him. We all sit down and begin eating. And just barely I hear August say "With your life huh? Then lets test it." I whorl around but she's already stepping into the school. "You ok baby? You look like you just saw a ghost." axel asks. "Yeah im fine. Just thought I heard something." I tell them shaking my head. Blake and uncle j look at me as if they know its a lie. But say nothing. Instead we eat and talk about their day.
      Afterwards uncle j an i leave, the drive home silent. I step through the doors of the mansion and I hear his voice. "You heard something. What was it?" he asks. "My worst fear." I say over my shoulder before running up the stairs and into my room.
      I turn into my closet and move aside a picture of myself and grandfather in the very back. Revealing a keypad, punching in the code. The wall slides out of the way and opens up to a room completely stocked with weapons and ammo. I start to pull out guns, knives, crossbow, arrows, extra bullets, bulletproof vest, grenades, bombs, detonators, missile launcher, drone loaded with missiles, drone loaded with a machine gun, drone connected to a camera, and Nightvision goggles. "Hey ash I ne.." uncle j's voice stops mid sentence and I tense. I hear his footsteps slowly walk closer to me. "And what is this for?" he asks, his tone clipped and strained. Nothing. "Your worst fear... She's taking him... And you think its tonight." he puts it together. "I don't think... I know." I grit. Pulling out my phone I call Blake. No answer. I call axel. No answer. I call hank. It rings till it goes to voicemail. I call Jake. He answers on the third ring. "Jake! Where is everyone?" I ask. "Well me and hank are trying to get out of the trunk we are tied up in. Some guys took Blake and axel." I tense. "Where are you?" I ask as I throw everything into duffle bags. "The trunk of our car." he says in a huff. "Hanks still knocked out." he says. I throw the last thing in the bed into a duffle bag before I freeze. Walking into the hidden room I grab 2 more bulletproof vests. "Are you coming Jared or are you going to keep standing in the hall?" I ask out loud as uncle j loads himself up. "I should have known you knew I was there." he says before loading up. "We will be there shortly." I tell Jake before hanging up and leave my phone on my bed. Uncle j and Jared leave theres also but in different locations of the house.
     Once we reach the school I go straight to their car and pop the trunk. I hear the guys gasp for air while Jared and j pull them out and to their feet. "You can get you breath back in the car. Lets go." my tone deadly. "Where to? We don't have a plan."
     "We will figure it out." I hiss. Jumping back into the SUV. We ride back to the house to form the plan since the boys wouldn't shut up.
      A week. A fucking week! Before they agree on a plan that I had the entire fucking time!  I dress in ripped jeans, black tank top, my leather jacket and combat boots. I slide a dagger on both inner thighs, small pistols in my bra, and grandfather pistol in my hand.
        Grabbing the duffle bag that contains two bulletproof vests, daggers, 2 guns, 4 clips, 2 shirts, 2 joggers, and 2 sets of tennis shoes... Male tennis shoes. The guys including Jared slide into the SUV uncle j is staying at the house to watch from afar incase we need back up. We all left out phones at the house in our rooms. I slide into my white custom made 67' mustang coupe.
     And we drive off. We have seen the bitch coming in and out of the warehouse she went out of her way to pass by. And that's our target. The guys an I stop just before the clearing of the trees and pull onto the side of the road. "You think their ok?" Jake asks. "Well its been a week so I don't think their in the best condition." Jared says fixing the last gun in his waist band. None of them notice I am the only one with no vest. Which is good for me.
     "Lets go." I say walking towards the warehouse. Taking out guards as we pass.
