1066 Alpha Violet and Alpha Ashton (7)

"Did something happen?" Alpha Cristian asked. He didn't miss the awkward atmosphere.

"Nothing, really," Ashton responded. "Mother is scolding us for missing a function and asking for an apology." He turned to his mother. "Who is more important? Me as the future Alpha or a bunch of pencil-pushers?"

"Now, now…" Alpha Cristian said while gesturing to Ashton to calm down. From those few questions, he understood what was happening because Luna Michelle was crying last night and that morning about Ashton not coming with Violet and making them look like fools. They called people saying that Ashton was back with his mate, Alpha Violet Blake, yet the main couple didn't appear.

Some Elders questioned if Ashton was around, and some wondered if he was mated to Violet.
