A new start

Humphreys POV:

It was late in the morning and I was out playing in the field when I heard a gunshot coming from my den so I ran as fast as I could. When I got there I found my mother lying dead on the ground with a bullet hole through her heart. I didn't know what to do after all my mother was the only family I had so I just snuggled up to her body and cried into her fur. I did this until I cried myself to sleep. I stayed in my den next to my mother's corpse for a week not once leaving her side no matter how hungry or thirsty I became. I knew nobody would be worried about me because me and my mother were lone wolves so I knew I wouldn't be disturbed. It was early in the afternoon when I heard footsteps coming towards my den so I quickly ran to the back of the den.

Soon I saw a grey male wolf and a tan female wolf enter the den. They began to examine my mother's body. They studied the body up until my stomach growled no surprise considering that I haven't eaten since my mother died. The grey wolf then perked his head and asked the tan wolf. "Did you just here that Eve?" The tan wolf responded. "Yes I did. It sounded like it came from the back of the den." They began to approach me and I did the first thing I could think of which was play dead with one of my eyes slightly open so I could see them. Once they got close enough to me I heard the tan wolf say. "Oh the poor thing." The grey wolf said. "Yes it's so very sad that he thinks we would fall for this old trick." As soon as he said that I got up as fast as I could then made a brake for the exit as I heard the female yell. "Wait where not going to hurt you." I didn't stop until I was at a nearby lake and was able to hide in the hole under a tree near it. I was able to see them and could just make out their conversation. The male said. "That pup was good." Then the female said. "Yes he was. I would say the poor dear was scared of us." Then the male said. "The women in the den must have been his mother so he must be an orphan." After he said that I began to pass out from exhaustion and hunger. Just before blacked out I heard the male say. "We should bring him back to our pack."Then everything went black.

Winston's POV:

As we looked for the young pup I heard a thump coming from a tree nearby and went to investigate. On closer inspection I noticed a small hole in it and in that hole was the little pup passed out. I then yelled. "Eve I've found him." She quickly ran to me and examined the pup. She then said. "the poor thing hasn't eaten for a while now we should take him back to the pack." I nodded at this then picked him up and began to carry him back to the territory.

Once we got back to the territory we received curious looks from everyone we passed. Once we made it back to the den I put him on the floor and let Eve checked him out. Once she was done she looked up at me then said. "The poor pup hasn't eaten in a week. He must have stayed by his mother all that time." As she said that I couldn't help but feel sorry for the pup so I said. "When he wakes up we should give him something to eat." Eve smiled at this then said. "Maybe you should go tell the pack about him in the mean time you should probably explain to the pack about him." I nodded then went to gather the pack. Once the pack was gathered I yelled. "The reason I've gathered you all here today is because of that young pup me and eve were seen walking with. That pup was found in a den next to what most likely was his dead mother. He hasn't eaten in a while so he will need some food. Also he is an orphan now and so anyone who wants to adopt him please come and speak with me tonight." After I informed the pack I turned around to find my two daughters Kate and Lilly staring up at me. Then Kate asked. "Dad why don't we take him in?" I looked down at them and answered. "Because this could be another couples chance to raise a pup. That and me and your mother have our hands full with you two." They both giggled then went to play.

Once that was all over I quickly went and got a big hunk of meat then went back to the den. After I returned to the den I found Eve in near the small hole in the back of the den whispering words I couldn't quite make out. Once I walked up to her I asked. "Eve what's going on?" She looked at me then replied. "the little pup woke up, took one look at me then ran into the hole." I chuckled at this then took the meat and slowly began to push it towards him. I then said. "You haven't eaten in a while so please have some meat young one." I heard him mumble something but I couldn't understand it so I asked. "What was that?" I then moved the meat a bit closer. He mumbled a bit louder but I still couldn't understand it so I asked again. "What was that I still can't here you." Then he quickly pulled the meat into the hole then said. "Thank you and my name is Humphrey." He then began to eat the food. I then walked back to Eve and told her that I informed the pack about him and that anyone who wants to adopt him must come and speak with me tonight." She smiled at this then said. "At this rate whoever wants to adopt him is going to have a hard time getting him out of that hole." I chuckled at this then said. "I better tell him that he's been put up for adoption." I then walked up to the hole and said. "Now Humphrey I don't want you to be angry but I put you up for adoption and any couple who comes tonight to take you will be your new parents." He just glared at me then moved deeper into the hole so I just sighed and left to finish what work I had left.

Once night fall came Humphrey had fallen fast asleep and once he was a young couple I knew came. The male was a brown alpha named Felix and the female was a gray omega named Sara. (Alpha and Omegas are allowed to be mates in this story) They walked up to me and Felix said. "Hello Winston we're here to speak to you about adopting the pup." I nodded my head and said. "You're going to have to carry him home he fell asleep in the hole at the back." I then lead them to the hole where Humphrey was sleeping. They both looked down at him and smiled before Sara said. "Aw he's just too cute." Then Felix said. "We would be happy to take him home and be his parents." I smiled then said. "His name is Humphrey by the way his name is Humphrey." They both nodded then Sara picked him up then carried him off to his new home. I smiled as I watched them carry their new pup home. I decided to keep an eye on them just in case Humphrey woke up. Once they arrived at their den Sara gently placed Humphrey on the and they both snuggled around him and went to sleep. I couldn't help but smile at the little family moment. After I was done I went home to get some sleep.
