"West! West- what do people eat?" Gilbert panted, and the two men stared at the Albino. Clenching his teeth, Ludwig seethed out.
"What do you mean what do people eat?" 'Gilbert, this is NOT acting normal! As for the food thing, you lived as a human for a while- you should know!' the blonde gave the other a look, and Gilbert held his hands up in defeat. Feliciano didn't notice as he walked around the room, with everything being dark in color, it was still homey. Books litter bookshelves, and he read the titles with interest. Gilbert left the room as the Alpha growled a warning, then closed the door swiftly.
"Ve~ You have quite a book collection." The blonde smiled and nodded before, before looking over to the other.
"I'll be right back, I have to see that something gets done." Feliciano nodded, and the blonde rushed to the kitchen where everyone was.
"Alfred, what do suggest we make?" the Boisterous werewolf yelled on the top of his lungs.
"Cheese Burgers BRO!" the Alpha groaned.
"Please don't yell in the house, You're giving me a migraine." Massaging his temples before looking at Arthur.
"You told me my food sucks, why the bloody hell are you trying to ask me?" with a sigh, Ludwig looked at them.
"I think I remember him saying he liked pasta this morning. Grind up some deer meat, and cook it. Get sauce and pasta, and mix it all together. It's easy, and hopefully he likes it." The blonde left the room, then ran back down.
"Make sure Vash and Lilly do NOT bring their hunt in through the dinning room like they usually do." Then went back up to the Italian who was reading the book he was read for their date. The blonde blushed, and Feliciano smiled.
"Ve~ you read this for today didn't you?" Ludwig nodded, and glance away.
"Ja, I was nervous." They sat in comfortable silence before the Italian reached over and held the others hand.
"Ve~ I was too, but after talking to you this morning- I felt like we were connected… if that makes sense." The blonde nodded. 'You would know all about that, huh Lud.' Snickered the colorless werewolf, causing the blonde to mentally groan.
'Gilbert get the hell out of my head!' snarled the blonde into his thoughts.
'You're the one letting your thoughts be open broadcasting little brother.' Snickered the other mentally before letting the thoughts be private again.
"Are you okay? Ve~ you've been staring into space looking angry." The blonde quickly composed himself again, and pulled the other close.
"Nein, No, I'm fine. Are you ready for dinner?" Feliciano smiled and nodded, and followed the blonde down stairs. Soon they were in the dinning hall, everyone sitting at a grand table. Several other people sitting at the table than that he met in the foyer earlier. Two blondes that looked like they were siblings, and a huge burley platinum blonde and a Asian by his side.
"Hello… Stranger. I am Vash, and this is my sister Lilly. Nice to meet you." With that the two walked away, as soon as they un-expectantly popped up. the other two stepped forward and bowed their heads in respect.
"I am Ivan, and this-" he motions to the Chinese man next to him. "-My life partner. Yao. I hope your visiting us was good, da?" Feliciano held his hand out and shook hands with the two while nodding.
"Nice to meet you!" they smiled at each other, and walked away soon they were seated at the table. Ludwig was seated at the head. Feliciano was on the left of him and Gilbert to his right, everyone looking the Alpha. He looked out to them and gave mental orders. 'Not tonight.' All the wolves stayed silent, not bothering to attempt to howl.
"Ve~ you live with so many people Luddy." Gilbert smirked.
"We have a lot of family." Feliciano blushed and looked at everyone in the room. Soon everyone was eating, and Feliciano smiled as he took a bite. It was good, different but good. Soon the meal was done and everyone was bidding a good bye to the Italian. Ludwig lead the man out to his motorcycle, and they drove back to where they met up that morning.
"Ve~ I had a great time with you today." The other nodding, smiling as he looked into the others eyes.
"Ja, me too. I hope you weren't put off by my family." The Italian giggled, and they parted ways. Feliciano walked away, and Ludwig hide behind a building, then transformed into a wolf. As Feliciano stalked down the street, going quite a ways to his apartment, the Alpha followed. Feliciano skipped down the street, singing to himself in till he was safely inside his apartment. The wolf looking into the window, his job now done leaving to go retrieve his clothes. Running back to the building and transforming back, quickly got dressed. Hopping onto his motor cycle and riding back to the mansion.
*o*o*o*
Feliciano woke up to his alarm with a smile. It had been three months, and his relationship with his boyfriend had become stronger with each passing day. He had to work today in till his co-worker decided to show up, but with that being said the blonde always dropped in to say hello while he worked. Sure he wasn't sure what the blond did, but it involved a lot of driving from what he got from Ludwig. He stood up, edging the bathroom and taking a shower and getting ready. He slept naked most of the time, because why not while you live alone? He stepped in, and turned the hot spray on, letting it roll over his head and shoulders. After a minute of just water rolling over his body, he squirted a good amount of shampoo into his hand. Smelling of rosemary and mint, which Ludwig expressed a liking to. Scrubbing his hair and body, he quickly rinsed, and got dressed.
He was soon leaving the apartment, locking it when he felt a familiar nudge on his leg. He turned to see the big white dog, with blue eye that matched his boyfriends. He was strange that this dog followed him to and from work, but he liked it. It was like his pet, while not really. He fed it scraps after work, and of course he walked it to and from work, after that he had no clue what the dog did. As he walked down the street, he looked at the dog and smiled.
"Ve~ it's strange, you remind me of my boyfriend Ludwig." The dog stared at him, and snored. The Italian giggled, and soon after a long walk to work left the dog outside. Once Feliciano was out of sight, the dog walked behind the building where no one could see, Ludwig going from wolf to human form. Sure the blonde knew it could be considered creepy, but he was over protective. This was his future mate, he could feel it. With that being said, he wasn't just going to wait around to wait for anything to happen to his Italian. After getting dressed and waiting about thirty minutes, he walked into the café where Feliciano was waiting tables.
"Ve~ why hello Ludwig, what can I get you?" the blonde smiled.
"You." Feliciano laughed and wrote down beer, rare steak, three sunny side up eggs, and hash browns. Ludwig came often enough, always asking for the same thing.
"All right, it'll be out in a few my love." And with pecking the blondes cheek walked off to continue working. He filled orders, and soon was bring out the food to every ones table, once getting back to the blondes table he noticed Gilbert. They were talking in hushed tones, almost sounding like snarls.
"Ve~ here you go Luddy, breakfast!" they quickly silenced themselves, and turned their attention to the other.
"Hey Feli! How's life been without the Awesome Gilbert to keep everything Awesome!?" the Italian laughed, and patted Gilbert on the shoulder.
"I've been fine, hope your morning is good! Ve~ I'll be back over I still have orders to bring out!" the two German men nodded, and the Italian scurried away. Once the other was out of ear shot they went back to the grim conversation.
"The problem being he's not safe anymore." Gilbert nodded.
"Yeah ever the Awesome me knows that the rouge wolf could smell us on him, hell he's around us so much he'd get mistaken for a werewolf. What are we going to do? It's been three days and we can't find where the bastard is." The blonde snarled, looking over to his beautiful boyfriend working.
"I'm going to be following him as the 'Puppy' he sees all the time. If the crazed S.O.B. even tries to get what's mine I'll tear him to pieces." Gilbert nodded again.
"I'll tell the pack that you're going to be on business." They nodded and separated, as Gilbert was walking out the door, Feliciano was walking back to the table.
"Later Feli! The Awesome me and you can catch up later!" waving a hand.
"Bye-bye Gil, see you later!" then the albino left. Feliciano sat down with the blonde, and smiled at him.
"Are you okay Feli?" the Italian nodded and kissed the blonde on the cheek.
"Boss said that I was off the rest of today that the person I was covering for showed up." the blonde looked up, low and behold there was another worker taking orders.
"Well I'm done for today, you want to go back to the house? Everyone in my family has been asking about you." He knew there would come a time Feliciano would find out who they were, but it wasn't to far from the truth. Your pack is your family, no matter what.
"Ve~ I'd love that!" they left together, walking down the street to the others motorcycle. Soon embarking on the ride out to the mansion in the middle of the woods. Feliciano clinging to the blonde, Ludwig smiling as he felt the other hug close. Once the mansion came into view, so did Gilbert in wolf form running right up next to them. Feliciano squeaked, and Ludwig raised a brow.
'Lud, some thing has happened. Alfred said he smelt other wolves in the area.' After that being said, Gilbert peeled off in the opposite direction.
"Luddy, that doggy was sooo pretty!" the blonde laughed.
"That was a wolf Feliciano." The other gasped, and hugged the blonde close.
"There's a wolf bigger than that in town, he follows me to and from work!" Ludwig smiled, and replied.
"The wolf must like you- they don't go out of their way to be close to you in less they see you as part of their pack." The Italian giggled, and they soon stopped in front of the house. Entering quickly, and Alfred already at the Alphas side.
"I smell a wolf, and he has the smell of crazy on him!" the blonde stared at the American. This was Alfred's way of saying he could smell a rouge. Which means this was bad, very bad. That means the rouge found it's way to their den, which meant that some one might get hurt.
"Feliciano can you wait up stairs for me in my room?" the other nodded, and ran up the stairs happily, blissfully unaware of the situation.
"Gather every one out side, we are going to need to kill him off." Alfred nodded, and everyone turned into wolves, already gathering outside. As they all waited for their Alpha, who with a gust of icy wind ran into the forest. Alfred leading the way to the crazed monster.
*o*o*o*
Feliciano sat in one of the chair Ludwig had in his room when he heard a cry. A loud scream of pain from out side, crying for someone to help. The mistake he made was leaping up to go to the aid of the cry. Once he was out side he saw a man he'd never seen before bleeding and crying.
"Sir are you alright?" asked the Italian.
"Oh, I am now." The man smiled, and Feliciano became confused, in till the man turned into a wolf. Biting into the small mans shoulder, causing Feliciano to scream. It echoing through the forest, and the pack stops running. Ludwig frozen in place, standing in horror. That was his mate, the man he wanted to protect. He began running fasted than he's ever ran, ice pricking the ground where his paws hit, winter wind starting a form. Snow beginning to fall as the blonde wolf lost control of his emotions. The crazed wolf was laughing when Ludwig bound in, seeing Feliciano panting and holding his shoulder.
'Ah, you must be Ludwig- Alpha of the Ice wolf pack.' The wolves circled, and before the other wolf could attack a ice pillar shot up through the ground and speared him through. Ludwig snarling and panting a response to the dead skewered body.
'Never mess with a Ice wolf.' Feliciano held a hand out to Ludwig, somehow after being attacked he knew Ludwig was this dog standing before him.
"Ludwig… I'm sorry, I should've stayed inside- I heard a yell for help and I just. I'm so sorry." He began to sob uncontrollably in till he heard the growling voice of the alpha through thought.
'If you were given the option to live life as a immortal beast or die at this moment, what would you chose?' the voice sounded desperate but strong, Feliciano responded.
"I want to be with Luddy forever- I love him so much I don't want to leave him!" the wolf walked forward, and bite the man. Feliciano hissed at the burning sensation that began to course through his veins, and blacked out. Feliciano only saw black everything, then a glowing white wolf stood before him. The icy blue eyes beckoning him to follow, he followed in till he realized his went from running on his human legs; to four wolf paws. Looking down into a watery like reflection from his surroundings he saw himself as a wolf. A white wolf standing before him engulfed in ice, winds whipping it's fur around as he stared at the other. Feliciano looked back, feeling a fiery heat.
'I am the wolf.' Was all Feliciano said, the other howling- Feliciano jolted up panting. He was in Ludwig's bed, and he looked to the foot of the bed. A huge white wolf, the same one that he'd walk with to and from work, the same one that bite him. The one he knew to be Ludwig. The wolf looked to be asleep, in till he cracked a eye to look at the Italian. Feliciano suddenly felt a urge to submit to the other, never had he felt that way before. But then his thoughts stopped. He was a wolf, of course he'd want to please and submit to him alpha and mate. Mate. He belonged to this wolf, and he felt like that's how it should be.
"I'm sorry I got hurt." as he said it, the wolfs head popped up and whined.
'I'm sorry I had to turn you… Feliciano I wanted so badly to keep you safe but instead I got you hurt, and then had to turn you into a monster like me.' Feliciano gasped, and held the other's head.
"N-no Luddy, I chose to become this- you asked me what I wanted." They stared into each other's eyes, then Feliciano felt himself change. He barely noticed it happen, but soon he matched the other. Where as Ludwig was white, you could see the golden platinum of his hair showing through as his under coat. Feliciano looked to himself, and saw he had dark almost black fur, but his auburn showed in his under coat. His eyes were a more vibrant golden amber, and he was quite small in comparison to Ludwig. He nuzzled Ludwig's mane, and the white wolf grow a low pleased growl.
'Ludwig, what am I to you now?' the white wolf tilted his head.
'Whatever do you mean?' Ludwig cocking his head to the side.
'We were dating before, but now that I'm the same as you it feels different. Strong, like we're more than just dating. Something inside of me keeps saying mate, am I your mate my alpha?' the smaller wolf waited for a answer, the other giving a nod.
'Do you want to be my mate?' he knew the other didn't have a option. They were already mates, it was set in stone the moment the other agreed to date him.
'Something tells me I had already agreed to that when I said yes to dating you. Besides I wanted to be this way so I could always be with you- I love you.' They sat in silence for a moment, and soon both of them were both back in man form.
"Get dressed, Arthur will want to give you a check up in a minute." Feliciano nodded, and watched as the other walked away. Staring at his pale naked body, disappearing into the bathroom attached to the bedroom there were in. Ludwig was fully clothed, walking the share clothes to the other. As Feliciano got dressed he was reflecting on his emotions. Right as he realized he said he loved the blonde, Arthur walked in.
"Alright chap, let me see your bite." Feliciano bared his bite for the Brit, who looked surprised once he glanced at the wound. More like, what was a wound.
"Ah- Feliciano, are you aware you are completely healed?" the Italian looked at his shoulder, and gasped.
"It is? Oh thank goodness- so I don't have to wear this gauze anymore?" Arthur just stared at Feliciano as Alfred walked in.
"Hey bro did you have a rough night? You know fighting your Inner-wolf can be tiring!" Feliciano looked at the other confused.
"Inner-wolf? I didn't fight anything." Both men stared at him, before leaving the room swiftly. Arthur ran down the room where Elizaveta, Roderich, Gilbert, and Ludwig were.
"Gilbert- you're the oldest pure born wolf here, I need to ask you something!" everyone looked at the Brit, as the American seemed shocked. Which was not normal, Alfred was usually unimpressed by everything, but was enthusiastic.
"Feliciano was turned, but he just told us he never had a Inner-wolf battling for control." Gilbert was now stunned. Yeah he was old. But this wasn't something he knew- it was unheard of. Before to long he was pulling out his phone, and dialing a number. Once the person on the other end picked up, Gilbert spoke.
"Toni, how long will it take for you to get to America?"
