Boss lady

I watch my- ma- Aviana's hands flung into the hair.
" But.. but why?" She questions almost in frustration. I shake my head, my lips pressed together like they have been glued, what am I to say, how do I answer all these questions she's asking?
" I just don't get it, why would you lie," my wolf and stupid beta made me, I almost scream but don't. She looks at the child drawing in her play section. Aviana is pacing the bright-colored room, luckily I managed to make Amber stop saying fucking fault, am not proud of the methods I used but I knew it will be the only effective one in the short period.
" Well, well, " my words get caught in my tongue as I try to explain while facing a fuming mother, darn it, she looks so hot when she's mad and bossy.
" Well, well," she imitates my voice, making faces at me and I almost chuckle, since when did she become so bold?
" Mama, dada! Look I painted a ladybug!" Little Amber runs toward us, showing us the ladybug she drew on her sketch pad.
I love it even though it isn't neatly colored.
" That's nice baby, you are so good," I compliment her before she takes it from my hands to show her mother, Ava's face softens as she crouches.
" Wow, my little artist, this is so good na, we'll hang it on the fridge tomorrow," my daughter frowns inspecting the drawing once more with an unsure expression on her face.
" No, I'll draw another one! The one we'll hang, this time, I will sing as I paint, so I only color inside," she claps excited, Ava places a kiss on her forehead.
" Yes, you still remember the song right?"
" Color, color, color, inside only, outside never!" They both clap at the end of the song, all anger from her face earlier gone.
" Julian doesn't know how to draw," giggles my little angel. I shake my head thinking about my nephew, how can a child be so energetic, and live, I frown at the thought of someone harming him for power.
' Any report on the border?' I ask one of the warriors through the link.
'No, alpha, we are good, no intruders, and the witch doesn't even come anymore,'
Sarafina has been wanting to see me for a while but I refuse to see her after she tried to burn Daniella's hand for the witch's bracelet. I understand how ambitious she always was and for a while, it was good because it aided me on several occasions as well, and I fueled it, telling her that she deserved to be the most powerful witch
" He growled-" a small voice brings me back to reality, not wanting to see that woman. I widen my eyes, is she telling her what happened earlier? I smile sheepishly to both.
" Come on baby, am sure mama needs to rest, her date didn't go quite as planned," I rejoice but a glare from Ava makes me lose my grin.
" What happened, my love?" She prob,
" He said a bad word, fucking fault," She says quietly. Ava suddenly gets up, looking at me with her angry jade eyes, if looks could kill I would be dead.
I pretend not to hear what baby Amber said. Suddenly the ceiling is looking nice, has it always been this interesting? It shimmers a bit too.
I dare to look at Ava, she is slowly coming towards me like a predator would her prey, I am the prey, a fucking prey. I'm one of the most feared alphas in Crescent stone but I'm scared of what this woman will do if she reaches here. I get up stealthily, my legs dragging me towards the door, Ava's lips are pressed together and her jaw is clenched, her chest heaving. Why is she breathing like that? Why?!
'Alec... Alec!' the fucking bastard ignores me, watching the show like a movie.
" Love.. are you... okay?" I smile as my hand goes to the door knob.
" Should I get you some wat..waters?" I stutter again, waters, seriously? I look at my daughter who is watching us with interest all of a sudden, Aviana's hands are clutched in a fist like she's about to hit someone, me.
" Amber," I call, I want her close to me or just hear her angelic voice before this crazy woman castrates me.
" I'll get you some water," I announce, opening the door.
" Stay," she orders, and am glued. Ok, boss lady.
" I. Was. Gone. Two. Hours. only Two! And my child learns how to curse," she says in a deadly low voice. I use that voice when I want to kill rogues or a traitor.
" Not to point fingers or accuse anyone but I ... saw Jeremy watching an 18-rated movie when she was coloring in the screening room," I try to save myself, it's low I know.
" Honey pie, who did you hear those words from when I was gone?" She asks our daughter in a sweet tone.
" Daddy," Amber says like she just hasn't signed my death sentence, traitor! I gave her candy to not utter those words again! " You said them, daddy," she adds
" Now..." Ava crosses her arms, furrowing her eyebrow. " I wonder what new words daddy said,"
" No more, he said they are bad words and gave me candy to not repeat them!"
She goes to her small purple octopus doll where she hides her candy and shows her happily,
" Look!" She smiles, reaching her tiny hands to get one but her mother grabs it from her, my daughter scowls as she longingly looks at the glass doll now in her mother's possession.
" Wow, he even gave you candy, this time, interesting, just perfect,"

' Justin, you're fucking dead if I survive tonight,' I link my beta, I hear him chuckle.
' No am not, you're not surviving,'
Ava looks at our daughter for a brief second before I make a run for it.
I hear steps follow behind me but I keep taking long strides to my room.
As soon as I get there, I collapse on my bed, we survived but I didn't lock so Ava slams the door,
" Why would you cuss," she asks in a soft voice.
I shrug, opening my eyes and sitting straight.
" I was frustrated ok, it will never happen again," I promise, we don't allow any cussing in front of Amber as she picks up words easily.
Ava sighs and sits next to me, her arm around my shoulder.
" It better not," I nod with a smile. She looks satisfied, and slowly she places her head on my shoulder.
" Why were you frustrated?" She asks but I keep silent and she nudges me for an answer,
" You went on a date with that doctor, it didn't sit well with me," I confess.
" But why Nik? Am I not allowed to see other people? you and I are not together, remember?" I know but I just don't like that she might start a relationship with Amos.
" We're you, maybe, just a tiny possibly jealous?" She questions
" No,"
" Good, because you said it yourself, you don't want to be with me in that way," she sighs once more, and I entwine our fingers. I hear her heart beat louder for a second. Oh my, Ava.
" I wanted to be the one to ask you out but Mr I can help with this beat me to it," she gets her head off my shoulder but doesn't look at me.
" Oh Alec, my Alec, you know it's impossible,"
" No, look at me," her brows furrow in surprise when she realize it was me that spoke not my wolf.
