My Atypical Wolf (BL)

320 Unaware

“Ashton?” Caleb mumbled before he blinked as realization hit him. “No, Alvaro.” he sighed. “Who is coming?”

“The Valestines, they are coming for us… all of us.” Ashton breathed. “They are mad, because I have killed one of them.”

“Wait… how do they know this? Can they have this telepathic connection even from this far?” Caleb wondered. “Are Valestines immune to the charm put over St Demoir’s Cellar by our ancestors”? He asked. The Charm that Caleb spoke of was something he found out only recently when that muddy wolf was imprisoned there. Turns out, if any wolf was trapped there, he or she won’t be able to link or communicate with anyone, even if you were trying to link with your mate, making it even harder to escape. It really was the hell of Crescent point.

“He escaped.” Alvaro/Ashton mumbled and with that Ashton’s eyes went back to normal and he started to hyperventilate.

Figuring out that Ashton was back to his older self, Caleb tried to inform Ashton about what Alvaro said, “Ashton, we need to-”

“I know.” Ashton interjected. “I heard him too.” Ashton mumbled, a little surprised. “Let’s go.” he added and jumped out of the pool and without even properly drying himself he started to get ready. As much Caleb hated to ruin their moment, to cut their trip short, he got up as well and followed the same suit. Taking a car meant they would have to wait for the car to come, so instead they decided the fastest way to go back would be if they shifted. Of course, they needed a different way back since two giant wolves couldn’t just roam about freely in the middle of the street like that, at least not here.

Finding a cab to the jungle that was nearby, they shifted and ran back. Of course most of their stuff was back in the hotel, but with the safety of their pack and the family, nothing compared. Once they were close enough, Caleb linked Christian and warned him of what’s coming.

By the time they had reached, they directly headed for the pack office to discuss the situation in depth. They weren’t so surprised to find multiple pack members there that were in the council waiting for them. While it was a bit awkward for Ashton, they tried their level best not to lose their calm.

They found Christian in his office going over some files, “Hey,” Caleb began as he started entering the room, with Ashton tailing him.

.....

“Oh, you’re back.” Christian sighed. “Good, I wanted to ask, do we have any ETA on these wolves that are coming for us.” Both the Wrisberg brothers looked at Ashton hopefully, who in turn shook his head in dismay. “That’s too bad. Well, I am afraid I have some more bad news.” he sighed.

Caleb and Ashton both stared Christian, who spoke avoiding their gazes. “I am afraid we are on our own.” he sighed. “Our allies that aided us in the last battle have declined their help. They said two wars within one year are hits they cannot risk to take. They are still recovering from the last one.”

“Risk?” Caleb scoffed in anger. “They barely managed to do any damage before we overpowered them.”

“We got lucky.” Christian snapped. “Yes, we lost a few people of our own, but we were lucky we didn’t lose any of our loved ones. But try to see the bigger picture here. Even if we train everyone here with a group mindset, to protect everyone around you… we train them to fight, does not mean we can ensure they will make it out alive.” he added. “We can ask people, but we are not entitled to their help, anyones for that matter,” he added.

“So we are on our own now”? Caleb mumbled with panic.

“I am afraid so.”

“I need to see my children…” After a minute Caleb mumbled and was about to leave when Christian stopped him.

“They are not here.” Christian declared.

“What”? This time it was Ashton who spoke. “You didn’t arrange another safe house for them like that did you?” he added, recalling how things went last time. Despite their best efforts they were found, when Ashton (being the strongest of all) barely managed to keep them alive.

“They are at the airport. With your mom and Ariel. I booked them the earliest flight I could.”

“To where”? Ashton snapped.

Christian looked at Ashton skeptically, “How did you know that the Valestines are coming for us”?

“Don’t change the subj-”

“I am not.” Christian interjected. “Answer me.”

“My wolf sensed it.” Ashton declared, trying his best not to lose his temper.

“I don’t know how that works, but if there is a chance they can get any information out of you using that same weird connection, I’d rather not risk it.” Christian shrugged.

“There is no way telling Ashton would risk things, I mean he deserves to know. They are our children”! Caleb snapped.

“I am not telling you either, Caleb.” Christian snorted. “You have a deep rooted link with Ashton as well, which means no matter how much you try to hide it he will find out.”

“That’s absolutely insane”! Caleb barked. He felt a tight grab on his hand, which upon turning his head he realized that it belonged to Ashton.

“Christian’s right.” Ashton mumbled. “If there are even remote chances, however infinitesimally small, it might be that they can discover the location from my head, I’d rather not know it.” Ashton sighed. “I am half Valstine, but I am not even half aware of the capabilities of a Valestine wolf. Why risk it?” He sighed.

Caleb opened his mouth, tried to defend himself, but deep down even he knew that Ashton was right. While it killed him not to know about his kids, he had to be kept in the dark in order to keep them safe. “Fine, but promise me that they’ll be okay. That you know they have… resources to keep them safe.”

“Sue and Ariel are with them. Ariel is a responsible girl, and Sue… that woman raised Ashton all by herself, so I know she got what it takes to keep them safe. Do you really need to be worried?” Christian asked. As Christian’s logic hit him, along with an affirming nod from Ashton Caleb let out a sigh of relief as he shook his head no, indicating that he had no doubt.

“Good, we need to discuss strategy and everything else. Everyone else is waiting. To the ceremony hall, now” Declared, Christian, took the couple with him as he linked other members to go there as well.
