My Atypical Wolf (BL)

312 The Muddy Wolf

Ashton leaped on the other wolf with much vigor, creating an impact that almost shook the ground. Meanwhile, Melanie still kept arguing in the background to let George join the fight. After a while, Ashton managed to brutally wound the muddy wolf like he himself was a few moments ago.

While the muddy wolf struggled to get up, Ashton leered over the other wolf. He snarled something that Melanie and George failed to comprehend, but the muddy wolf sure got what Ashton meant to say because after the snarl there was a considerable change in the muddy wolf’s demeanor, from angry to confused.

It was at that time some other wolves from the pack arrived including Christian to scare the other wolf away. But that muddy wolf wouldn’t budge no matter what. So after another gruesome fight, with the muddy wolf being outnumbered, they managed to emerge victorious against her finally. While the wolf was still alive, it was unconscious. Therefore, they tied her and transferred her to St Demoir Cellar.

Most of them shifted back to their human forms, and with all the fur gone, the wounds on Ashton’s body became more visible. “Ashton, you’re alright?” Christian found himself asking.

“I am, thanks for coming.” Ashton nodded, brushing some blood off of him (although whose blood it was was still unclear).

“Of course.” Christian nodded. The kids along with Melanie and George came running to Ashton and jumped on him, hugging him tightly after witnessing the gruesome scene.

“Hey, I am okay…” Ashton comforted those kids. “Don’t worry, I got you. I am not letting anything harm you”.

“Ashton what was that?” George found himself asking.

“It’s a part of things you avoid.” Melanie snapped. “Currently we have been dealing with many such attacks”.

.....

“Oh…right. I saw it on the news. Was it…this wolf?” George asked.

“Not quite,” patiently, Ashton refused. “The other wolf… I killed him. And right now I am this close to being sent to jail”.

“What? That’s preposterous!” George almost shouted. “You shouldn’t be sent to jail, if anything you should be celebrated”! He huffed.

“That’s…” Ashton trailed off, feeling uncomfortable with that, “...really not necessary.”

“No, today you saved us. You jumped into action when it was necessary, you have my gratitude! If there is anything I could ever do for you, let me know.” George insisted.

Ashton blinked, and for a flip second turned his head towards Melanie who was herself busy smirking with a knowing gaze. “Actually… there might be something.” Ashton declared, following with him proceeding to ask what he was originally intending to.

Meanwhile, Christian approached Melanie. “Good call,” he began. “Now we even have proof of what kind of creatures are trying to attack us”. He sighed.

“Does Caleb know what happened here”? Melanie found himself asking.

“No,” Christian let out a frustrated sigh. “He is gonna be so pissed off when he finds out.”

“Yepp”! Melanie nodded.

“I think it’s time we have a council meeting for our packs. Invite the local Alphas from the nearing packs and have a discussion regarding this situation.” Christian mumbled.

“Do you think they will reprimand Ashton, for whatever is happening here”? Wondered Melanie.

“I’m afraid they might. He has a certain notoriety when it comes to being known. Not to mention he is misjudged most of the time.” Christian shrugged. “We will see what we can do”. He trailed off as he gazed at Ashton and George sharing a conversation.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

As soon as Ashton returned home with the kids, Mrs Parker hugged the kids tightly, following by hugging Ashton. “Oh thank God, you’re okay.” Sue let out a breath of relief.

“Mom, we’re fine.” Ashton reassured his mother despite her relieved expression. “Where’s Caleb?”

“He was napping when I received the call. I didn’t wake him up. He had been tired enough already”. Sue shook her head.

“Really?” Ashton was a bit surprised. Given their connection, Caleb usually got a hint of his things earlier than apne else. Even when Caleb was asleep. But lately, it felt like the opposite. Caleb was unaware when Ashton ended up killing that other werewolf. Even now as well.

Ashton assumed that since Alvaro was in control back there, his connection with Alvaro was severed momentarily (a power of Alvaro Ashton really dreaded). But today even though Alvaro was with him, Alvaro wasn’t in full control. So what happened?

“Ashton you’re okay?” Mrs Parker brought him back from his reverie. “You know what, I know what you need. You just had a terrible fight, you need some protein in you”. She shook her head.

“Mom, I’m fine. Most of my wounds have disappeared already”. Ashton declared, taking a quick look through his arms. See, I can barely see a scratch.” He insisted.

“Still, you look really exhausted.” Sue argued.

“Mom, I’m fine. It’s late and I’m just tired” Ashton declared firmly. He looked at his kids and added, come on, let’s get you all to bed. We have school tomorrow and it’s getting late.” Mumbled Ashton and skimmed away from his mother’s scrutinizing gaze. After Ashton managed to get the kids to fall asleep, Ashton came out to see his mother waiting for him at the dining table accompanied by a warm glass of milk. Ashton sighed and shook his head in dismay, but sat down next to his mother after one gesture from his mom.

“Mom, I told you I’m fine”. Ashton began.

“I know…and that you’re almost healed.” Mrs Parker rolled her eyes. “But I’m not worried about what happened, but I am worried about what’s gonna happen next.” She sighed. “The wolf that attacked you… was it… somehow related to you?” She asked hesitantly.

“Not that I recognized her personally, but…” Ashton hesitated as well. “Yeah, it’s a Valestine wolf.”

Mrs Parker let out an audible gasp, “Will they take you away from me again?” She wondered.

Ashton held his mom’s hand, and rubbed it in a soothing manner, “Don’t worry Mom, this time I don’t let them”.
