A Princess Lost

Chapter Five

'No! No! No! absolutely not!' roared Aaron as Charity perched on his desk trying to calm the furious Alpha down.

'Baby she's eighteen! When I was eighteen I was marrying you! One night out with the girls is not a huge issue' She placated,  grabbing his hand as he stormed past her again, pacing the floor angrily.

'She's only a child! She needs protection, I need to protect her' Aaron argued,

'She's a grown ass woman and she needs a life before she has this place on her shoulders' replied Charity her own anger rising, 'She is not a doll Aaron, She won't break because she is out of your sight.  It's one night out with her girlfriends not sending her off to fight in a Rogue war!'

'I don't like it' growled Aaron protectively, 'she should be here where we can look after her'

Shaking her head Charity sighed, 'Merrick can drive them too the club, wait outside while they have a dance and then drive them home when it shuts' she replied soothingly.

Grumbling to himself, the angry Alpha was slightly mollified that his Beta would be with them. 'Fine, but Merrick doesn't leave the club parking lot from the moment they enter till the moment they leave' he growled.

Laughing, Charity pulled him into her arms, pressing her lips to his as he growled lustfully, 'I don't think you have to worry about that Mr Cross, Merrick is even more protective of our princess than you are' she teased.

'As he should be, that's his future Alpha' Aaron mumbled.

'pfft, it has nothing to do with being the Future Alpha and all to do with how many over protective uncles she has in this and our sister packs, the poor girl can't even move without one of you men checking up on her' Charity scolded.

Smiling sheepishly Aaron kissed his wife back, 'Well she is our princess, we can't help wanting to look after her'

Laughing, Charity slipped her arms around his neck, 'She knows her training, let her live a little, she needs time in the real world to prepare her for the day she'll take over, how can you be an Alpha if you've never set foot outside the gates alone?' she whispered.

'Ok Ok, I get it, she's not a baby and daddy needs to stop treating her like one' Aaron conceded, pulling his wife's legs around his waist as he reached hungrily for her lips.

The door burst open suddenly, two whirlwinds entering the room that came to an abrupt halt, staring at their parents.

'Ugh! so gross!' Marcus said making retching sounds.

'Really parents? don't you have a room or something?' Isabella asked horrified as she tried to cover her brothers eyes with her hands.

'Yes, it's this room right here that you both burst into without knocking' growled Aaron, 'last time I looked this was the Alpha's office and currently that is still me so if I want to feel up my wife in here I will'. 

'Eww! That's our mom you are talking about!' Isabella yelled as Charity giggled and pulled away from her husband, hopping off the desk to go over and hug her children.

'To what do we owe this unexpected interruption?' she asked looking into each child's face.

'Oh we were just passing the door . . ' started Isabella suddenly placing her eyes anywhere than on her parents.

'Bella wants to know if she can go to that club!' burst out Marcus excitedly as Isabella's stared at him mortified.

'Not I was not coming for that!' she squealed back, pushing him.

'Were too! you were stood outside the door trying to listen in, but dad has the room sound proofed so you couldn't hear anything' Marcus retorted.

Her cheeks colouring, Isabella looked at her parents, her gaze a mixture of hope and resignation.  'Well as we are in here, have you made a decision?' she asked hesitantly.

Charity smiled, 'Dad has said yes you can go . . ' she started, only to be interrupted by Isabella's delighted scream as she launched herself at her father, throwing her arms around him.

'Thank you daddy!' she shrieked as Aaron tried to cover his ears.

'There are conditions' Aaron growled sternly, 'Merrick takes you, he will stay in the parking lot by the car while you are in the club, he will then drive you home!  Everyone enters the club and leaves the club together, you DO NOT leave each other alone whilst in the club, not even to go to the bathroom'.

Hugging her father tightly, Isabella grinned broadly, 'Absolutely daddy! we will all stay together, I promise! I need to go ring the girls' she squealed before running out of the room again, only stopping momentarily to hug her mother before she was gone.

'Girls are so weird' Marcus muttered, shaking his head before giving his parents a wave and leaving the office, pulling the door too behind him.

Circling the desk, Aaron prowled toward his wife, 'now where were we?' he asked as he grabbed for her, Charity letting out a gasp before starting to giggle, placing her arms back round her husband as he pressed his lips to hers, growling possessively into her mouth.

Back in her room, Isabella mind linked, Courtney and Darcy, filling them in on her parents decision as they all three screamed excitedly.  'We need to pick out what we are going to wear' Darcy declared, 'we need to be the most gorgeous girls in the place'

'You always are Darce' Courtney said, a slight tinge of jealousy in her voice, 'every male head always turns as soon as your raven black hair enters the room.'

'Ahh shut up hoe' Darcy chided, laughing, 'everyone knows you get more than enough attention with that red head of yours'

'You are both gorgeous' Isabella interjected smiling to herself, 'I'm sure there will be enough men at this club for you both to have your pick'.

'Us? we need to find someone for you Bella!' Darcy exclaimed, 'Your mate is out there, and we girls are going to find him' she promised.

'Seriously girls, i'm not bothered about finding my mate yet, I'm just happy to go and let my hair down with my favourite she wolves' Isabella replied.

'Well yes, we are unbelievably cool, who wouldn't want to hang out with us' conceded Courtney, 'but a bit of male attention is never a bad thing' she added, her smirk clear through the link.

Arranging to meet up later to pick out their clothes for the next night, Isabella cut the link and lay back on her bed, sending a quick text to Riley.

'Hey! guess what! Mum and Dad are letting me go to the new night club tomorrow with some girlfriends' she sent.

The three dots appeared instantly underneath her message, showing Riley was online, 'Wow, how did you manage that? I thought Uncle Aaron was going to make you and your future mate live in the next room to him for the rest of your life' he sent back.

'I know! Mum talked him into it, from how they were positioned when we went into the office, I think she used her womanly wiles' Isabella shot back with a laughing emoji.

'Ugh, too much information babe, I don't want to know about Aunt Charity and Uncle Aaron any more than I want to know about my mum and dad' Riley complained.

'Sorry! but still, I am soooo bursting with excitement Riles! I get to go out! without my bodyguards, well ok, I've got Merrick driving us, hanging round the car park and driving us home, but still! he won't be in the club growling at any male that looks my way' Isabella texted quickly.

'Well i'm well stoked for you babe, you have a good time but stay safe ok?' Riley replied with a smiley face.

Rolling er eyes, Isabella's fingers flew over her phones keypad as she replied, 'Ugh, worse than my father and all my uncles! that is what you are! shut it Mr worry wart, I will be fine'

'Ok Ok, I know, you are a big bad future Alpha who doesn't need anyone protecting you' Riley sent back, 'Just watch your back, and don't go falling for any dancing pec's' he added along with a GIF of a man flexing.

'Eww gross Riles! That is soooooo not a turn on' Isabella answered, giggling to herself before shutting her phone and throwing it on the bedside table as she grabbed the remote and flicked on her tv, finding a tv show to entertain her until Darcy and Courtney came up to sort out her outfit for the next night.

Hours later saw the three friends sat on the bed, surrounded by Isabella's entire wardrobe that had been pulled out and discarded as they tried to find her the best outfit to wear.

'I think this is the one girls' Darcy said, holding up the sleek black off the shoulder dress with a slit up the side to expose the wearers thigh but still covering enough to keep the mystery.

'O.M.G you are going to look amazing!' Courtney squealed as Isabella grinned at them, grabbing the dress and standing to hold it up in front of her.

'I think you are right' she agreed excitedly, 'I can dance in it, but still kick ass if I need too' she joked.

'Chance would be a fine thing' Grumped Darcy, 'what with the big strong Beta babysitting us, I doubt anyone will come within ten feet of us'

'Hey, it was agree to that or not go' protested Isabella, 'What would you prefer me do? plus Merrick is cool for an old bloke' she added grinning.

'He is certainly muscular' breathed Courtney dreamily.

'Pack it in, he's happily mated with like two hundred kids' Isabella cut in sternly, 'no-one could drag him from Avery anyway' she smirked.

'Hey just because a wolf is mated does not mean a she wolf cannot show appreciation for his structure' Courtney argued, 'I'm still on the hunt for my mate, but until then I can enjoy the views around the pack house' she said tossing her hair as the other two girls giggled at her.
