It's been two days since the incident of Gwen's mother, Emily couldn't stop crying after she found out what happened, she thought Gwen had gone missing, or kidnapped or probably killed. 

She sat in her room sobbing really hard while her mother had tried everything possible to console her. 

“Emmy, please, get yourself together, you've been like this for two days, my child”. Her mother said, patting her back in a comforting manner.

Seeing her only child like this breaks her heart, she feels helpless and weak.

She knows how Gwen has been very close to Emily, they literally behave like sisters, always doing everything together and now, this tragedy has befallen that innocent girl.

Now, even the whole town was scared, her mother's body had been taken to the morgue and the security had been tightened. No one knows the mystery around her death and Gwen's Disappearance, everyone now lives in fear.

“No mother, I can't stop crying, where's Gwen?What happened to her?I was the one to find her mother's corpse and I…”. She couldn't go on as she was choked by her tears. 

“My dear child”. Her mother said as she pulled her into a hug, she couldn't help it as she joined her daughter in crying, and then she remembered what had happened two days ago.

#flashback 

It was a bright sunny morning, Emily had woken up with a bad feeling and when she had done everything at home, she told her mother she wanted to visit Gwen as she didn't seem ok to her the last time she saw her.

“I'll be back soon, mother”. She said, closing the door behind her. 

The journey to Gwen's home had taken shorter than usual as she half walked, half jogged down there. 

Seeing she was getting close, her heart beat increased, and she had to walk faster, she couldn't even understand the feeling she was having. 

Finally, at Gwen's doorstep, the house appears to be quieter than usual and there was this irritating smell. With one trembling hand, she knocked on the door. 

“Hello?”. She said, knocking the door twice.

Still, there was no response, and then she knew that something was wrong, her first thought was that Gwen's mother had done something terrible to her. 

“Oh no, God please”. She panicked as she tried the door knob and to her greatest surprise, the door was unlocked.

Slowly, she opened the door and her eyes widened with shock at the first thing she saw. 

She dropped to her knees as her body shook with fear, there on the floor laid the decapitated body of Gwen's mother, she was surrounded in a pool of her blood and now, she knows the reason for the awful smell. 

“Gwen? Where is Gwen?”. She thought in her mind as a greater fear consumed her.

She forced herself to get up, she used her right palm to cover her nose as she ran upstairs. 

“Gwen, Gwen”. She yelled as she frantically searched each room.

“Gwen, please, answer me, Gwen”. She screamed as tears began dropping from her eyes. 

Not being able to bear the thought that something terrible must have happened to her best friend, she once again dropped to her knees as each memory she has with Gwen flashed through her mind. 

“Gwen…”. She screamed In tears, clutching her chest tightly.

Lance laid on the couch, sleeping peacefully, when the sound of someone banging the door woke him up. 

“Who the hell is this fool?”. He growled, feeling angry that his sleep was disturbed. 

Sincerely he was truly happy, and the one reason was that his mate was here with him, it would have been better if he was lying upstairs with her on their bed *their bed*, and he smiled at this thought. 

But he wanted to take things slow, even if he badly wanted to go in there and mark her, but no, he needs to control himself as well as his wolf. 

*Knock*, the person banged again, harder than before, jolting him out of his thoughts, he sniffed the air and got the scent of the person. 

Getting up in anger to open the door, he brought out his claws as well as his fangs, he forcefully opened the door, almost pulling it down, he grabbed the person by the neck, growling loudly.

“Lance”. Asher groaned as he tapped Lance's hand.

“Let me go, please”.

“Why should I?You disturbed my sleep”. He replied, giving an evil smirk. 

“Your mate, behind you”. He struggled to say, as lance grip was too strong. 

“What?”. Lance muttered, releasing Asher, who dropped to the floor with a loud thud. 

Lance turned back, but frowned immediately, seeing he had been tricked. 

“You sneaky little wolf”. He said and made to grab Asher again.

Seeing this, Asher got off the floor quickly, he ran to the living room, giggling like a high school girl who just met her crush. 

“Come back here, Asher, I swear I'll kill you”. Lance said, going after him. 

“No, never, you're going to kill me for real, and I know it”.

“But think about it Lance, what about Gwen, she'll miss her favorite person”. He said, winking at Lance. 

“Ha, in your dreams”. He scoffed. 

“She wouldn't miss you a single bit, and leave her out of this”. He growled. 

“What?, she really wouldn't miss me?”. Asher said, as his eyes began to water, he felt hurt hearing this from Lance. 

“Yes you Idiot, now get out because she doesn't like you”. Lance said, just to spite him on purpose. 

“What?”. Asher yelled, all traces of tears gone. 

“That's not true Lance, I'm sure she likes me very much, I probably made a good impression the last time”. He said, puffing out his chest.

If it had been someone else, Lance would waste no time in snapping their necks, but this was Asher, he has a mate, and Lance knows he's also an idiot. 

“Asher!”.

“Get lost now, you fool”. He said, feeling frustrated. 

“No Lance, I'm not getting lost until I prove to you that Luna likes me, I'm literally her favorite person”. He replied, giving Lance a smirk which annoyed him.

“What is this demented wolf planning to do”. Connor growled in his head. 

“I don't know Connor, but I'm sure we might actually not like this, Asher is always up to no good”. He replied, glaring at Asher, who still had on his annoying smirk. 

“Oh, how I wish I could punch that smirk off his face”. Connor growled, feeling irritated. 

“Let me out, Lance, I need to kick some butt”.

Lance chuckled at his wolf over Possessiveness, clearly Connor didn't like Asher's confidence about being Gwen's favorite, he is getting jealous. 

“Calm down, Connor, he is only joking”.

“Whatever”.

“Helloooo… “. Asher yelled, seeing Lance was lost in a conversation with his wolf. 

“What?”.

“I'm sure you and your wolf are actually planning my funeral, but you can save it for later because I'm still going to prove to you that I'm Luna's favorite person”. He replied, sticking his tongue out at Lance. 

“Ok, what is the idiot planning to do?”. Connor said. 

“Bye”. Asher said.

 He ran with inhumane speed, heading straight to Lance's room, where he knew Gwen was. 

“Lance, I swear I'll kill that fool for this”. Connor growled as he tried forcing his way out. 

Lance, knowing fully well that Connor might actually do what he says, did his possible best to control his wolf. 

And so, the two went into a battle for dominance, Connor wanting to be let out, Lance trying to hold him back. 

They battled for a while as Lance's eyes kept on switching from red to a brighter red, finally, Lance had the upper hand as he managed to restrain Connor. 

“This isn't right, Lance, let me out”. Connor growled In anger.

“I know Connor, just calm down, it's Asher remember, you know he is an idiot. He's always fooling around, I don't want you killing our beta”.

“Whatever Lance, just go and check what's happening, I'm certain that idiot already disturbed mate sleep, I want to murder him”.

“Calm down, ok, I'm going already”. Lance said, breathing heavily, clearly, it hadn't been easy restraining Connor.

*Never mess with a possessive wolf*

“I also would like to kill that fool”. He whispered. 

“I heard that”.

“Just kidding”. Lance chuckled.
