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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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 I guess I should be given the fastest man alive award for the way I had dashed out of the lab. Finally, my brothers were coming up to speed with what I was planning to do and it was really nice that I was not alone in this. Seeing those vampires out there looking really helpless was not something that I had been looking for. So, I went over the rock and made the fastest jump down ever as I rushed to the car. Very quickly, I pulled away the bushes used to cover it and I got inside and started driving away. The sun was already coming down at this point a little and I knew we were somewhere around the afternoon. I drove all the way straight out of the outskirts in a frenzy I had not been expecting and soon, to the city. I had no idea at the slightest where exactly I wanted to go but I pulled one on my contacts. The moment I dialled him, he became really scared from how he sounded on the phone. He probably was wondering why I was calling him two times a week. That was bothersome,
Garrett You ever have a sibling you wish it would not really matter if you kill them because right now, Damon was filling that position for me. His rash reactions and lack of foresight against risk was alarming so much that I began to wonder how he had managed to survive all these years.How on earth do you go around pulling levers and when the ground beneath you starts to give way, you remain put? How do you hear sounds that are scary and then risk your life to go investigate. He was beginning to make it look like our purpose here was to try and keep him from doing something stupid other than save our pack.Now, he had returned with the not so good news on how there were vampires in here. And he was looking excited much like he wanted to release them. I was counting on the fact that he might have already done that. I looked helplessly at Jacob and the disappointment on his own face told me everything that I needed to know about his emotions at the moment. He did not actually find it
Jacob A mission with my brothers was definitely not something I thought would have happened if asked about it two years ago or even six months ago. Who would have thought that so much would change in just a short time that was beginning to make me realise something more. It was not so bad working with my brothers. In fact, it made me feel a special closeness to them and I started to wonder as I was driving why we never bonded this way. Perhaps, I should say thanks to the bounty hunters for this avenue and Jace for being the common thing that we all were mutually connected to.I drove through the outskirts and peeped at the rearview mirror to find Damon sleeping. He looked so peaceful and not so mischievous. I admire him now. A version of me who had gone out of his way to take risks for us. I mean, who would have thought that such a heart lies beneath that playboy glee that we were all used to. It made sense now, those times that I would find him snooping around. And now I could tell
Damon Everyone was finally on the same page. At least everyone here that had to be as Peter was still upstairs sleeping. I enjoyed the fact that we all understood this whole situation wholeheartedly and I was finally able to open up to my brothers on what I had found out. By the looks of things, we most definitely would be getting back at Luke together.I had to explain the whole findings to them but I had already seen the design of that machine and I believed that was something Garrett the genius would be able to understand. I was right. The moment he took a look at it, his eyes widened with so much shock. He recognised it or at the very least, what it was supposed to do and I knew we were not safe before he told us that it was all about destruction."Wait, what do you mean by that?" Harold demanded. This was the first time I have seen him panic this way."From what I can tell about this, it is supposed to create something that would fish us all out and make us go rabid and even kil
Garrett Finally, we would not be needing to keep our identity hidden from Jace any longer. It was high time actually because I was already wondering if I was going to have to keep lying to him. Harold seemed to be finally getting into understanding us and I was really happy. That was when Jace asked the funny question and we started laughing.I felt bad for him when I looked up at him and noticed how he looked. He had been genuinely shaken up by Peter's stuff that he might have seen his life flash before his own eyes. I knew for one thing though that even though Peter was not going to eat him, he was definitely going to kill him. But it was not intentional and that was something I believed Jace should understand. Yes, I have always wanted his attention to myself and I really wished for that even now but we all had fought together to keep him safe and so, everyone deserves a second chance to make him trust us.So, I spoke up."Actually, he was not going to eat you. He was in pain and
Jace I was freaking out, my insides felt like they had been tied into a knot of sorts and right now, all I wanted was to leave here alive. I had been shocked when I had suddenly been approached by a wolf so much that I feared that I was going to lose my life. The creature was definitely really big and the eyes screamed of the many horrors it was promising me.That was when I saw Damon approach and my eyes lit up. Perhaps, he would defend me but the distance from where it was to where I stood was actually really close. One wrong move and it might actually attack me and cause me a lot of pain. Fear coursed through my insides as I was already trembling.Harold, Jacob and Garrett had come from behind me as well. But they asked me to calm down.This was clearly my fault, I had thought. If I had not been busy feeding the foxes then maybe this wolf would not be here. It probably had seen me and had come for its own meal. Those were my thoughts until I saw the unexpected. The wolf had launch
Damon I could see now that we all were in league and for the first time since I was burdened with my sexuality, I finally felt relaxed. It was great to feel that I and my brothers were in this together and right now, I did not want to deny Jace anymore. If anything, I wanted to be with him, learn to love him and see where all this ends. One confusing aspect was my brothers though, they all seemed like they were prepared to go all the way with him as well and this could easily ruin all my plans. I have no idea what exactly I had been expecting but it most certainly was not that they would latch on.Well, it would be great to see where it all leads. And right now, Harold was looking really troubled. There was definitely more to the reason why he was so certain that we would not be accepted and I knew he was hiding some juicy story. One question I had right now was if Harold had attached to him a dark side. That would actually be great to talk about. That our all uptight butler has his
Jacob Alright, this was way more than I had ever thought or bargained for. The fact that everyone suddenly had fessed up made me feel like it was all over and done with. All the hiding and deceit but what I believed was the fact that everyone of us had a problem. Bad enough that Jace was a guy, how could we all belong to him? It was horrible to even begin to think with and the fact remained that I did not want to share with anyone.I had to carry, Peter insisted. The asshole that has ruined everything because of his impulsive decisions. While hearing Harold speaking to Damon. I heard when he told him that we all were going to have to reject Jace. That sounded awful but I shall have words to say later.The door to Jace's room was open slightly as I emerged from his floor and Garrett was in there. I walked over and then slightly opened the door to find Jace laying down, his head on Garrett's lap as the latter rocked him from side to side."Everything okay?" I asked him."Yes. I guess h
Damon I already had enough of the pretext as I walked away. At some point on my way downstairs, I decided that it was all good and I returned."Ah, Damon, I'm glad you returned. You know we can talk about this." Harold said to me."Come on, bro. We cannot keep hiding secrets and I know that you're not a traitor, so you shouldn't take what Garrett says to heart." Jacob said to me.They were definitely considering gigs in the comedy terrain because right now, I was pissed beyond measure."Secrets? You think my secret is anything like the ones I notice in the house? Yet, I trust you all so much that I am in denial." I stated."What are you talking about, son?" Harold demanded."Yeah, what are the secrets around the house?" Garrett demanded."How about this for a secret, bro. How about you explain to us what is good between you and Jace!" I demanded angrily."What is that supposed to imply?" Garrett demanded."I probably was not going to suspect anything but I have been watching. Pretend
