"Carlos." Camille screamed as she lunged herself at me as soon as Jett and I walked into my penthouse apartment. I quickly caught her and held her up as she wrapped her arms around me hugging me very tightly.
"Oh Camille" I whispered into her soft brown hair as she continued to squeeze me. Camille was my very best friend/sister and I could go to her for anything. She knew I was bi and loved me for it no matter what. She was two inches shorter then me and had beautiful brown eyes. Whenever Camille hugged me it felt like home.
"We were so worried about you." She said when she finally let go of me.
"I'm fine just really tired." I said to her.
"Wow man is you ok." My friend and fellow hunter Dak said as he gave me a tight hug as well. He was as tall as Jett but with brown hair and hazel eyes. He was one of the best hunters I knew and we roomed together as well as Jett at our training. We became best friends over the years.
"Yeah Dak I'm ok." I said.
"I can't believe you actually were held there with those mutts. God I'm sorry Carlos." He said
"It's ok Dak" I said.
"Oh Carlos thank god" Jo said as she too pulled me into a bear tight hug. She was one of my best friends as well but I wasn't as close with her as I was with Camille. She was about as tall as Camille with long blond hair and green eyes. She was sweet and had been one of my hunting partners back at the academy. Pulling away she looked at me and said "What happened?" How did you get caught?"
"I fought with Lucy and I did kill her but she injured me pretty bad in the process. I dropped my phone when I called you guys and passed out. Next thing I knew I woke up in a shed and the mutts had spent the whole time torturing, taunting, and beating me." I said
"Oh Carlos" Camille said hugging me once again. She was the most sympathetic out of all of us even though she was a hunter and we could not show our emotions. At least not to wolves that is.
Remembering what I wanted to tell them I said "Something good came out of it though"
"What could that possible be?" Jett said with a frown.
"I know who the alpha is." Is straight up said to them? I looked around at their surprised faces waiting for a response from them.
"You do?" Jo asked looking more surprised than any of them.
"Yes. She is a woman and I was being used as bait for my parents. She is after them now and I was the bait to lure them in because she knows that my parents would never leave me behind or even you guys for that matter. She didn't know that Jett would be coming for me though so she didn't anticipate me escaping. I know she is coming after me and she will probably have her little comrades or minions track mew down. Jett to since he rescued me. I don't completely know what she exactly wants from me one why she just doesn't go after my parents herself all's I know is that she wants my parents dead and I can't let that happen."
"Maybe she wanted to change you." Camille whispered quietly.
She would have changed me while I was still there. Maybe, maybe not but I will hopefully never figure out." I said.
"Well you know who the alpha is at least." Jett said. "But we almost lost you trying to find out. We can't sacrifice each other anymore or hunt alone not after what happened to Carlos. We are all we have got left besides our master and Carlos parents. We cannot keep doing this so we have to make a promise to stick together no matter what happens."
"Agreed." I said
"Agreed." Jo and Camille both said together.
"Absolutely." Dak said.
With that we all shared a hug and I realized that I wasn't ready for my friends to leave my side yet. "Hey would you guys like to stay tonight? I don't really feel safe and I don't want you to be wandering on your own." I hardly admit that but they are my best friends and I knew they would not judge me or make fun of me.
"Yeah I do" Camille said as she bounced into my room. "I call dibs on sharing a bed with Carlos." I smiled at Camille we were such good friends that we never minded sharing a bed together. Sometimes she would even borrow my shirts.
"Guest bedroom." Dak and Jett both said at the same time. They then glared at each other.
"Guys I have four rooms. You can all have your own unless of course one of you wants the couch." I said knowing right away that they would no longer fight about it. Sometimes I was glad for the extra space. My parents had a lot of money and helped me pay for the apartment and my friends would come to stay a lot.
"All right we each get our own room" Jo said as she made her way to one of the rooms. Jett and Dak followed suit.
"You guys are going to sleep already" I said.
"Carlos its eleven o clock at night. Like you we all need sleep." Dak said.
"It is?" I asked looking at my clock and realized that he was telling the truth. It was almost midnight and I was extremely tired. "Oh wow all right well sleep good guys see you all in the morning." I said making my way to my bedroom where Camille was already in her pajamas. Deciding to take a quick shower I stripped myself of my clothes and made my way to the bathroom.
Turning the hot water on me jumped into the shower and groaned at the feeling of the hot water. I had been locked up for a while so the water felt fantastic on my dirty and dry skin. Immediately though my mind went to James. The look in his eyes when I had escaped. It's like he was relieved but at the same time he wished that he could have stopped me from leaving. Signing I close my eyes trying to forget about James but instead I just pictured him more. His tall frame and beautiful eyes when he stared at me, most of all though his soft lips when he has kissed me. I accidentally let a moan slip out and that's when I realized what I was thinking.
"Snap out of it Carlos." I said to myself as in stepped out of the shower and wrapped myself in a towel. Quickly I drie4d myself off and got dressed and walked out to my bedroom. Camille still sat on the bed wearing my clothes reading a book.
"Maybe you should just take my clothes from now on." I chuckled walking over to the bed and climbing in under my sheets.
"They are comfy and come on Carlos you are like a brother to me. I know you never care if I wear your clothes. Plus I forgot my jammy top." She said laughing at me.
I didn't respond and instead just lay down staring at the ceiling. My mind kept wandering to what I had experienced and about the alpha who was after me, my parents and now possibly my friends. I had to protect them at all costs no matter what happened to me.
"Carlos?" Camille said softly to me. I looked at her face and saw that it was full of worry. "What's wrong?"
"Just thinking." I said not wanting to talk about James.
"About?" she asked pushing it.
"What to do about the alpha" I quickly lied. "I mean she is after my parents and I cannot let them anywhere near them. I have three wolves on my tail and I just really do not know what to do. Emotionally I'm drained." I said as I let my emotions get the best of me.
Camille listened then placed her hand on my arm and said "We are here Carlos. You know we will help you. Especially me. You have provided so much for me and I think it's about time that I return the favor, I mean come on we are hunters and we look out for and protect each other from the wolves. "She said.
I felt myself smile at that. "Thanks Camille" I whispered as I pulled her into a hug.
"I'm here." She whispered to me. I nodded before pulling away.
"Hey um I don't really want to be alone now and need a friend so would u guys just like to move in? I think we all need to stick together since this has happened and I have plenty of room." I asked her. I thought that after this we needed to stay together.
"Yes I will and I'm sure the others will because we don't want you to get caught again." She said smiling. "And if we have any jobs or hunts coming up then we go together not separated cause you got caught when we did that. No more solo hunts from now on. We can also figure out what to do about the alpha while we are staying here."
Thanks Camille and I agree with you one hundred percent. Tonight we sleep but tomorrow we work." I said laying back and she joined me.
"Try and get some sleep Carlos. I'm right here and I know it has been awhile since you slept properly and you need to be rested." She said as she rubbed my head. God I loved it when she did that. It always helped me relax and eventually sleep. Within minutes I was out.
I moaned loudly as teeth scraped against my neck biting then soothed with a gentle lick.
"You like that babe." James asked huskily in my ear.
Not being able to speak I nodded my head and moaned again in response.
Leaning down James licked my ear and kissed his way down my chest and toned torso.
"Ngh James." I moaned when I felt his mouth hovering over my cock desperate for attention. He licked through my boxers before pulling them down a little.
"Uuuuggghh." I groaned when he licked the tip of my cock.
"Baby your cock is so big." He groaned slowly he lowered his head further and began to deep throat my cock.
"Oh God." I yelled grabbing the head rest behind my head. Beginning to bob his head James sucked harder until my orgasm rippled through me.
"James" I screamed again then…
I woke with a start and jumped up. "What" I said looking around and seeing Camille fast asleep next to me. That's when I realized that I was in my room and had just had a wet dream about James. God what the hell is wrong with me? I cannot feel this way especially about James. He was a fucking wolf for crying out loud I hunted him.
Gripping my head I rubbed my eyes and tried to focus on anything but James.
"For god's sakes I hunt him why the hell am I having these feelings for him. He isn't even human" I muttered continuing to rub my eyes. Taking a deep breath I closed my eyes and laid back trying to go back to sleep. It was hard but after a while I was able to fall asleep right through the night.
I woke up the next morning to the smell of bacon and eggs. My stomach growled and tossing my blankets off of me I saw Camille was still sleeping next to me. Careful not to wake her up I went to my dresser and grabbed a pair of jeans and a black t-shirt. When I was done dressing I quietly walked into the kitchen and saw that Jett and Jo were up dressed and cooking.
"Smells good." I said sitting down at the table. Once again my stomach growled loudly so loud that Jett and Jo had heard it.
They both looked at each other and laughed. "When was the last time you ate?" he asked as he put plates on the table
"I haven't eaten since I killed Lucy. They did not feed me at all while I was there" I said realizing it really had been a few days since I have eaten.
"well breakfast is served" Jett said setting down some scrambled eggs, a plate filled with sausage and bacon as well as chocolate chip pancakes which were my favorite.
"Where's Camille?" Jo asked"
"She's still asleep. I figured I would let her rest." I said as I grabbed one of everything and filled my plate. When my plate was full I began to wolf down my food.
"Hey where's Dak." I asked noticing that Dak was nowhere in sight.
"He got called into the camp where we trained to grab some new weapons for us. He will be back tonight." Jo answered.
"Ok. Well looks like Camille is getting the better deal here." I said realizing that she could sleep like a rock half the time.
"Yeah she didn't get much sleep anyway." Jett said sitting down as he and Jo began to dish up their own food.
"Why not?" I asked looking up from my plate.
"She was very worried about you. You are like family to her and she was so scared that something had happen to you." Jo said. "Carlos we were all so scared that you had died."
"Yeah we didn't know what to think. When you dropped your phone I knew something was wrong." Jett said
"I'm glad u didn't assume I was dead. I'm very grateful you came for me." I said smiling at both of them.
"I'm very glad that I came for you." Jett said. Without another word we all went back to eating our breakfast. Camille has still not woken up.
For the rest of the time we just talked about what had happened while I was gone then for some reason about movies.
When we were finished eating I helped Jett with the dishes while Jo cleared the table. When we were done Jo had announced that she and Jett needed to go out and pick up a few things and to meet up with our group leader to discuss what I found. I decided to stay here with Camille.
"All right see you guys in a bit." I said thankful that they would tell our leader Michael what I had found and how we could stop it. He was the one who would assign out hunts and tell us what wolves were our targets.
"See you in a bit Carlos" Jett said as he and Jo walked out of the door. I closed it behind them and decided to wrap up the leftovers for Camille.
When that was done I looked around to see if there was anything else. There wasn't and I decided that I would watch TV for a bit. During a show I remembered that I would need to tell Michael about the alpha. Getting up I checked on Camille who still was sound asleep. Deciding to let her sleep more I pulled out my phone and stepped out of the apartment. I went down the steps instead of taking the elevator and as soon as I got outside I dialed Michael's number.
It rang four times before he answered. "Carlos" his voice said over the phone.
"Yes sir its me." I said.
"Oh thank God. Jett, Jo, Dak and Camille told me that you had been taken by those horrible mutts. Are you alright son?" he said and I could actually see that he was concerned.
"Yes I'm fine but Michael there is something that you need to know." I said sternly and quickly into the phone.
"What is it?" he asked.
"I have seen the alpha. I know who she is and I know who she is after and what she wants with me. I am bait for my parents."
"Wait the alpha? You have seen the alpha and she wants your parents?" he said into the phone.
"Yes I know where they are located as well. If we are going to kill her we need to strike now." I said remembering the woman's face when she had stared at me.
"I refuse to let her touch my parents." I said to Michael.
"Carlos we will need to meet and discuss this. Gather the others and meet Me." he said.
"Jett and Jo are out but will be back soon, Dak left to get more weapons, and Camille is here with me right now. Just let me wait for them and we will be on the way." I said before I shut my phone and literally ran all the way up the stairs to my apartment.
"Camille" I called hoping she was awake. I did not receive an answer.
"Camille." I called again making my way to my room where she was sleeping. I expected to find her in my bed or getting out of the bathroom. But when I walked into my room there was no sign of her.
"Camille" I said again my voice rising with worry. I ran all over my apartment and checked all of the guest bedrooms trying to find her. When I couldn't find her anywhere I ran back into my room.
"Camille" I yelled again before I saw something on my pillow that made me stop. It was long and silver. Beneath it was a piece of paper.
"What" I said in wonder as I walked toward the object. When I got closer I saw that it was my pocket knife that James had taken from me. Slowly I picked it up and put it in my pocket and picked up the piece of paper. Realizing that it must be a note I opened it and read the words that were on there.
Be at the woods where you killed Lucy
By three o clock or your friend dies come alone
And bring no weapons or I promise she is dead
-James
I gasped staring at the note for a few more minutes before I crumpled it and threw it in the trash can scream. Those mutts took Camille and I promise they were going to pay. I didn't see any choice though. I had to go or Camille would die. Looking at the clock I saw that it was two fifteen. I had to hurry or Camille would be dead. I had to hurry they knew that I would come for Camille.
"I'm coming Camille" I muttered grabbing my keys along with my leather jacket and making my way to my car. I forgot about gathering the others and meeting with our leader. My only thought was on Camille.
