Creatures of the Night ((Closed))

[Aspy Ink]

Asher walked into the room to see Alex, her face still a little pale, and stoll asleep, not even waking when he opened the door. However that sick feeling in his stomach didn't go away. He pulled out his phone and texted Ember.


Hey, you okay?

 

[FangAndOzy]

Nicoli was busy yelling at Seth and vice versa when Asher texted Ember. Nether of them heard her phone buzz and Ember was out cold. Then Nicoli paused realizing that her phone had buzzed. He moved and looked at it. Cussing not so quietly.


"Is it Wolf boy?" Seth asks and Nicoli nods. "Tell him she's fine." He mutters. They couldn't have an angry wolf to deal with right now. Nicoli hesitated.


"I can't." He says. Seth sighed exasperatedly and then looked to Ember. He really had been trying to keep an eye on her but she had strayed too far and then she was attacked.

 

[Aspy Ink]

Asher waited for her to text him back, he hoped she was okay but the feeling in the pit of his stomach wasn't going away amd he sighed as he looked down to Alex quietly.

 

[FangAndOzy]

After a little while Seth took the phone from Nicoli. "If you won't do it, I will. This is not his business and nothing for him to worry about." He says harshly.


I'm Fine. He texts simply. Realizing that he didn't know how Ber might respond to him.


"And if he finds out?" Nicoli asks simply. Seth shrugged.


"He won't." He says. Nicoli just shook his head a little.

 

[Aspy Ink]

Asher quirked a brow as he read her text. He didn't think she would be so short. But she might be tired, or around her friends. Sighing he texted back.


Alright. I just wanted to be sure





He sighed as he set his phone on the table. He hoped she would be able to come to their meeting.

 

[FangAndOzy]

"See." Seth says, showing him Ember's phone. Nicoli sighed. He may not care for Asher but he still felt bad. He still felt he should know what was going on. He didn't think to respond back thlugh as he shut her phone off and set it down.

 

[Aspy Ink]

Asher sighed quietly. It seemed off to him with the way she replied to his tect. Shaking his head softly he left Alex's room and went to his own room to get ready for bed. He decides he would ask how it went when he saw her in class tomorrow. He still had the odd feeling though as he took of his shirt and pants, getting into hid bed and going to sleep.


((Wanna skip to tomorrow?))

 

[Aspy Ink]

((Sorry I've been taking so long. I'm playing Euchre with my family))

 

[FangAndOzy]

((No worries. I'm at work still so I'll be slow to respond too.


I'll start with the next morning.))


Nicoli had fallen asleep beside Ember's bed. Anxious and worried. At some point Seth came in and reminded him they had to go to school. Annoyed he had to leave Ember, he went with Seth to the school. Being careful to avoid Asher if he could. Especially since Ember was still unconscious.


He wondered if Alex would be there. He wanted to see her but otherwise he hoped she was resting.

 

[Aspy Ink]

Asher got a ride to school with Kyle, and Alex was with them as well. She planned to be there until lunch again, unless she couldn't handle it in which she promised Asher and Kyle she would go home. Asher walked into class, looking around and frowning when he didn't see Ember. Maybe she was gonna be late. He tapped his foot anxiously. He still had that feeling in the pit of his stomach.


Alex got out the truck, and walked into the school slowly and quietly. She wasn't as pale as she was yesterday, which was very good for her, but she was still pale.


((Okay))

 

[FangAndOzy]

Nicoli walked into the school late, trying to make sure to avoid Asher as he went to class. Smiling when he saw Alex. As he sat down the bell rang to start the classes.

 

[Aspy Ink]

Alex smiled softly as she looked up at him."Hey."She said softly before the bell rang and the teacher came in. She got her stuff out and got ready to take notes.


Asher continued to tap his foot impatiently. When he saw Seth, he looked over at him."Where's Embrrlynn?"He asked him as he looked at her.


((When do you Ge t off work?))

 

[FangAndOzy]

((11:30 my time. To help its about 10:52 my time right now))


Nicoli smiled again and kissed her cheek. "How are you feeling?" He asks her gently.


Seth looked to him and then looked forward again as the teacher began to talk. He had forgotten the wolf was in his first class.

 

[Aspy Ink]

"I'm doing better. I guess I slept all day when I got home until this morning when Asher woke me up to see if I wanted to go to school."She said softly, smiling at his kiss and returning.'Asher was extraised anxious to get to school, everything is okay with you and Ember? Right?"Sje asked, not even knowing that Asher had texted her. She yawned softly before looking back to Nicoli.


Asher growled softly and whispered."Answer me!"He whispered with a growl as he looked at him, pulling out his phone to text Ember again.


Ember.....where are you?

 

[FangAndOzy]

Nicoli hesitated. He didn't want to lie to her but he didn't want to tell her the truth either. "She's resting." He says simply.


"She's sleeping at home. She's not going to respond." Seth says. Looking over to Asher coldly.

 

[Aspy Ink]

Alex nodded softly."Long night laSt night?"She asked him softly as she looked up at him.


Asher growled quietly."Is she sick? Injured? Or is your clan actually allowing her to ditch school?"He asked as he looked at him. He wasn't going to let up until he got a satisfactory answer.

 

[FangAndOzy]

"You could say that." He says gently. He wasn't exactly tired but he hadn't slept much last night either. He was concerned for Ember though.


Seth looked over to him calmly. "She's at home resting." He says again. Trying not to show his own concern for her.

 

[Aspy Ink]

Alex sighed softly."Okay. As long as she's okay. I know you wouldn't lie to me unless it put me in danger."She said softly as she looked up at him.


Asher growled once more."I don't like tour answer."He snarled."Look, I really don't like you, but I care about Embrrlynn. Amd I know you do to a point. Why is she resting?"He asked her as he looked at him.

 

[FangAndOzy]

Nicoli sighed, feeling guilty. "She's not 100% Alwx. But she will be. She just needs a day." He says gently.


Seth sighed and looked to Asher. "She's not great. She needs rest then she'll be back in no time." He says.

 

[Aspy Ink]

"What do you mean? Did she get hurt last night?"She asked him as she looked up at him."Or is she just sock?"


Asher narrowed his eyes."Will you please tell me what is wrong!? I'm not gonna start a fight with you or anything unless you caused it."He said as he looked at him, glancing at the teacher briefly.

 

[FangAndOzy]

Nicoli bit his lip, hesitating. "She...she got hurt. But you can't tell Asher okay? She'll be fine after she had a day of rest." He says gently.


"Of course it wasn't my fault!" Seth snaps quietly and then he clamped his mouth shut. "She is going to be okay." He says a little gentler this time.

 

[Aspy Ink]

"How badly?"She asked him softly before sha king her head."Don't worry. I won't. I'm sure he'll know one way or another sometime."She said with a heavy sigh.


Asher was about to say something back when t he teacher gave hI'm a pointed look and he cursed under his breath."I'll finish with you later. I will find out why she isn't at school."He whispered before finally returning his attention back to the teacher.

 

[FangAndOzy]

Nicoli hesitated agin. "Pretty bad." He says quietly. "She got some of the elder's blood though, with that she should be okay in no time."


Seth rolled his eyes and faced forward to listen to the teacher. He wasn't going to say anything to some wolf. No matter what his plan was or what he knew about Asher.

 

[Aspy Ink]

Alex nodded softly."You know, when he finds out, he's gonna be really mad that you didn't let him know Nicoli...."She said softly as she cuddled into his side.


Asher wasn't really listening to the teacher, worrying about Embee. He now started thinking of that feeling on his stomach. That it must be somehow linked to Ember, because of their bond.

 

[FangAndOzy]

Nicoli sighed. "I know. I thought about telling him. But I can't have him acting irrationally. She has to stay on our territory until our elders say. Who's to say Asher would try to go after her in a fit of anger and worry?" He says gently.
