Jacob Having Jace around the house was really suffocating. He should be in my arms where he did in fact belong and not far from me. I felt this urge and desire each time he was near.This morning, it had been Garrett's clamouring around him that I could not understand. My wolf was rattled by this stunt and I wanted to go pull him away. I came into the kitchen with the intent of observing him under the guise of checking up on Harold when I saw Garrett beside him.I know he is my brother and would probably have nothing in mind towards the boy but I suddenly felt the urge to want to yank him away from him. He should not be so close up to Jace.I was fuming and then, he just had to make it worse by leaning over to grab a carrot. That should be me, there beside him even if I would not touch him but just within earshot of his close scent. I actually could perceive him from where I stood. It was so strong but I wanted more from him.The entire house was filled with his scent. It was around
Garrett Everyone had gone right back to their activities and I, to my room after breakfast. I was thinking of going to see Jace and ask him to accompany me to go shopping for some necessities with me including clothes when I was halted in my tracks.My hand was already on the door knob as I was about to open the door when I heard him. Jacob had gone to his bedroom.My wolf rattled within me as I wondered just what he was doing there and clamoured for him to leave when I heard him ask Jace to follow him. I was totally at loss as to what he wanted with him and listened as Jace followed.Perhaps, I should have gone out then to ask where they were headed but that would seem too awkward. Jace was here to work, I reminded myself. It would do no harm at all if he decides to assign some duties to him.I promised that if he goes back up and I find that Jace is being over laboured, I would go assist him.However, one could only imagine my horror when I heard Jacob's car start and he drove away
Jace I was short of words right now. He wanted to be chatty with me?Dare I say that the fact he had come into my room shirtless and bearing that package made me wonder what exactly the present was. I could not understand how this guy would always walk around shirtless and in complete oblivion as to what was happening around him.He went to lay on my bed facing the ceiling with his hands folded under his head as I stood there for sometime wondering what was happening today. Almost all brothers except one had given me something today making it seem like there was some sort of competition I was not aware of going on for my attention."Sir, I don't really understand." I said, simply.Of course, this was his house and not like I could ask him to get out of my bedroom. Even if I could, I did not feel like I wanted to.In fact, his presence in my bedroom was even more entertaining than I could ever imagine. He propped his head up as he looked at me."Well, don't just stand there. I don't b
Garrett It is only a tree that would stand in one position and wait for things to be brought to him. But not me.Garrett Sanderson was no tree.I desired him even though I did not really approve of what I wanted but it was all Jace for me. I had intentionally come to his room and engaged him in a conversation with hopes that I would spend ample enough time with him. Jace seemed more or less wary of my presence around him and I could totally understand his dilemma.I mean, I was in a dilemma myself and could not even help the fact that my wolf was craving the boy. There was only one way to figure out what it was that I really wanted. Perhaps, this might even be a curiosity which I wanted to accomplish for myself. Hence, I decided to pretend to sleep.I was really skeptical that he would let me stay but a great part of me believed that he was too good-hearted a person to send me out of his room. I knew when he had gone to take his bath and of course when he had come out of the bathroom
Jacob I was pissed this morning. It was all channeled toward Garrett as it seemed to me that he was doing his very best to get on my nerves.I had been on my way to go get something which I could not quite recall at the moment when I noticed he was headed for Jace's bedroom.It was totally unacceptable. I mean, he probably had been hoping that I would be passing and decided to go in there.Since Jace's room was close to the staircase, I decided to sit there a little and eavesdrop on their conversation. There was something really strange about Garrett and it was the fact he seemed less distracted by anything and was interested in Jace's life.Usually, his ADHD would never let him focus. I waited with hopes he would leave the room but then, it was getting late and I was getting really tired of waiting.I decided to take a run into the night and started out quickly.The night was quite chilly but I was a werewolf and would get warm sooner than expected. I took it off my shirt and starte
JaceIt was really weird for me and I could not understand what was actually going on. It would seem that Garrett had been close to me and then he fled.Everything here was happening so fast and I was beginning to fear for my sanity. My heart was beating so fast these days as I did not know what was going wrong. I eventually managed to go to bed and when I woke in the morning, I had a feeling that I most likely would not last long here with them. I had to start making alternative arrangements for my safety should there be a possibility that I lose this job.I went over to where I had kept my phone the day I had come here so I could call my former employer. At least, to talk to him civilly which would earn me a little bit of compassion from him if things go south here.But alas, it was not there. That seemed really confusing as I was certain that indeed I had left it there."Where is it?" I muttered as I looked everywhere. Yet, my phone was not there which is when I panicked.Here I wa
JaceI had been biding my time as everything seemed strange. I kept aiming to go outside and had even left everything in my bedroom so as not to seem suspicious. I had come here after all with nothing and would gradually figure my way out and maybe save for another phone. They could keep the other one for all I care.I left the house through the back at this time. Harold was not back yet too, so this gave me the edge. It was really hard maneuvering my way around as even the guy that usually stayed outside barely was out chatting with the gardener. I had no idea that he had come too and was about to go off when they turned to my side."Who's there?" The other guy demanded.I know if I ran, I would be out on a full sprint. Besides, there was a good possibility they were here for the same reason. I decided to act cool and step forward."I'm the one." I responded."Well, what are you doing around here snooping around?" The gardener asked me."I'm trying to find something for Master Damon.
Peter Everyone seemed to have been moving past the whole shenanigans surrounding the new boy although I simply could not evolve. I did not like what I was feeling at this point and had to try everything in the book to get him out of my head. I had no one to speak to or at the very least lay out my complaints because it would only make me weird.This night of Damon's party, I had actually seen Jace sneak away from the apartment. I had a feeling that he was probably trying to get away. Perhaps, he had noticed how I stared a lot at him and how I kept on trying to act like I was displeased with his presence. But then, I kept it all inside of my heart, trying my very best not to show.I had been hopeful he would make it out of this place. Away from me against the entire protesting from my wolf. I just wanted him to be safe from a sicko like me.But Harold the shrimp had to go on out of his way to bring him back home. And in that moment, it dawned on me that I would never be comfortable in
Garrett It was the first time that I have seen Harold this way. His eyes flashed with so much anger and I could tell that he was pissed. The way he balled his fist made me really worried and I was beginning to hope that Damon would help out with calming down. Come on, I was also not expecting anything because I mean, it was Damon that we were all talking about here. He would much rather fight everyone than use his head to think properly. Looking at him right now, I knew he was pissed. Seriously, where was Jacob when one needs him the most. Harold's eyes were beginning to blaze bright yellow and I knew it would be hard to get him to calm down if he unravels his claws and Jace might walk in anytime.Besides, I too was beginning to get angry. Jace had left with Jacob which made me really concerned that he would be in the same space as another male even though it was my brother. Anger was actually dealing with me that all this while, I had not been able to focus on my work. I had managed
Damon Garrett had eventually left the room after our argument. It was clear that he was not really onboard with the fact that I had brought that fox back home, much less let it come as a pet. I really felt bad because all I wanted was to make him happy. And also, I knew what emotions were emitting from me and was hoping that being a little nice to him would bring it all to check. But it was going to strike a rift between my brothers and I. Thinking now, we already had the bounty hunters to worry about, adding this to the equation when it was not necessary would not really help.So, I heard Garrett out until he was done and he left. Jace was downstairs at this time and I decided that I would go there and see him. I had to make him understand that he had to let Charlie go. Charlie, another question that even Garrett was seeking answers to. Of all names out there which he could have given them fox, it had to just be Charlie. How convenient. I mean, I was beginning to see reasons as to
Harold I had to keep it cool but then it was hard. Martins was just too hard to ignore that I totally lost my cool which I had promised myself that I would be keeping intact. Eventually, I had to focus on what was necessary and we had him do his checks. I was still angry but alas I realised that I did not hate him. I missed him so much that I decided to go back inside. I asked Peter to wait in the car with hopes to spend some time with Martins. It might not be much but it was enough for us to hug and eventually kiss. We had missed each other. I had to break away from him and warned him sternly not to run away or do anything stupid because I would come back to find him.He agreed and then, I heard Peter rushing away. Seriously, I had not expected that he would eavesdrop but I was hoping that I would much later clear the air. Martins still wondered who the lad was to me but I told him on a good day, I would bring Peter and tell him exactly who he was. From his eyes, I noticed he suspec
Peter Harold and I eventually went on to visit more places but for the first time, I really felt for him. He had actually noticed that I had been eavesdropping on their conversation earlier and I did apologize as I told him I would not say a word when he came into the car. He watched me for sometime and then he broke down crying. Seeing Harold like this really hurt me to the marrows that I could feel the lump and pressure in my chest while I comforted him. It was never going to be easy, dealing with certain lifestyles especially in our pack. Those things were forbidden."Can you drive?" He had finally asked me and I agreed. We both got out of our respective sides of the car and then I asked him to punch in the details of where we were headed next. He fiddled for something, clearly worn out from his mood and I asked him to call it out while I did the punching in. The moment he did so, I started driving without questions although I wished I could ask him a thing or two. In my head, I
JaceNo. Today was really beginning to morph into something I had not expected. Everything was just happening too fast and I started wondering what it would feel like when it got out of hand. Here I was getting bedazzled at first by the thought of having a new pet. But then there had to be a controversy around whether or not he would be staying and of course, his name. It kept on hitting me that I was going to get hurt when the rest of the party showed up and they decided that Charlie should leave. Nevertheless, I remained firm in my thoughts.Now, presently I was fleeing from Garrett when I saw that logo. I always wondered what it meant at the time especially when he had tried to brand me which was the last day of his life but it sure as hell scared me greatly. It was almost as if he had been the one behind everything here as there was no absurd theory that did not cross my mind. I mean, Harold had suddenly appeared from nowhere and found me interesting. He even seemed to know things
Garrett Charlie...was this some sort of joke or something? I could not believe that it was just a coincidence. I mean, there were other ways it could have happened but hearing this one was totally out of it. I noticed that Jace was worried about my reaction and I did my best to comfort him. I could not be mad at him. At least, he had not brought back a pet to the house knowing well enough that it was something we all still had trauma towards. Also, he most certainly did not come up with that name. This had to be one of my dumb brother's games to get on my nerves.I knew Damon. He has always been up to no good and would work at creating mischief at every chance he gets. It had always been my call to fix his mess all along. Even when he went extreme and hurt people. But then, Peter was his close ally. They were practically an inseparable duo compared to everyone else. When I look at one person, I always see the other following closely. Why on earth would he choose to bring up something
Harold Peter seemed to be in a lighter mood at this point but if only he knew how heavy mine was. The first stop we would be making was the most crucial of all to me and that particularly was because of the person in charge of the place. All across the state were our districts and their heads. It was more or less a certain kind of place that stood as the overseer of the werewolves leaving around the area. These districts were responsible for collecting information on our kind and ensuring there was peace. They also made certain that werewolves especially the young ones did not break the laws as it was no exception to them.This particular one was a church cathedral. Very large and was being manned by our kind. It was not really easy or fun to know that one of us was having too many interactions with humans, much less the fact that he was in charge of records keeping. But the Alpha had found him worthy of the position and eventually had to make it easier by establishing him above the
Peter Three werewolves from this district already? Hell, the moon goddess alone knows how many more are missing in the others and how many more we would have to deal with their loss.I was beginning to feel really angry at this point and faced both men. Harold too was startled as clearly, he had not expected that there would be up to three missing. For a moment, he was really quiet. I mean, the news had a way of hitting us sharply. I was also beginning to fear for our pack and what things could happen if this is not curbed as soon as possible.Another question was popping up in my mind. If they were back here, does that mean they had conquered other packs? Due to this rule of law, there were different Alphas in other states actually. It was a way of having everyone minding their business. Although ours was the strongest of all and our territory spread throughout five states. Others had two at the most and some states belonged only to the humans. Others, I heard, were overrun by bount
Jacob I placed my order and I thought for the first time in a while, I might actually sit down and eat outside. I found myself the most discreet spot that was at the back and I sat down there. My burger and fries were brought and I started eating. I was really confused right now as to what had been happening. I really wanted to get back inside and at the very least watch the actual footage that had been missing. The thoughts in my head were so much that I decided to finish it up quickly. I stood up suddenly and bumped into a girl. She grunted as she fell down. I noticed her meal had fallen to the ground and quickly wanted to help her. She looked really scared, lean and there was something about how she was dressed. She was putting on a beanie and her scarf nearly concealed her face. I went down to assist her."I got it." She said to me as she tried picking it up.Wait, was she actually going to eat this after it had touched the ground? Certainly, I could not allow that. It was my fa
