Chapter 227: The Aftermath

It was really late by the time Christian reached the safe house. He had no idea how things were and he kept trying to link Ashton as much as he could so that whenever he would be in the range, he could check what was the situation. 

[Christian?] When Ashton finally linked him, he sighed in relief. 

[Caleb told me you were discovered. What's the status?] Christian asked.

[Everyone is frightened, but they are safe.] Ashton replied. 

Christian paused for a moment before ordering, [Take care of them, and keep me updated!]

[Understood.] Ashton went quiet which made Christian almost disconnect the link. [How is Caleb?]

[You know?] Christian was surprised  but then mumbled. [Of course you do, you're his mate. He is still recovering.] Christian could tell by the silence from the other end how devastated Ashton was. And how hard he was trying not to lose it. [Once I am there you can come back.] Christian offered.
