Ok, this is Chapter two of the Wolf Watching story. I wasn't going to write more, but I decided to make this a Multi chapter. I thank my critic and good friend Avery. If it weren't for her, I wouldn't have written this. Please read and review. Thank you.

Wolf Watching

Chapter Two

Conrart laid in bed that night, thinking about the day's occurrences. He didn't act upset when he saw the king kissing his Wolf cub. He wanted to so badly pull Wolfram away from Yuuri and into his arms. He wanted to keep his baby brother safe from all of the world. His little cub was his, and his alone, as far as he was concerned. He listened as Wolfram and Yuuri gave the big news of their third child. Conrart was happy for them, he really was. He put on his usual insincere smile, the one he saved just for Yuuri and his hijinks. The smile that says, "I only put up with it because I have to."

Conrart wasn't stupid. He knew the power of the maou. He also knew the penalty for going against the his wishes. For now, he would watch from afar.

The next morning, Conrart awoke at the usual early hour and prepared to go to the maou's bedchamber. When he reached the door, he heard the unmistakable sound of retching from within. He knocked on the door and entered before the king answered. He went to the bathroom and saw his sweet little brother kneeling in front of the toilet with Yuuri holding his hair out of his face while he emptied his stomach.

"Your majesty, is his highness alright?" Conrart knew the answer to his question, but he felt it was for Wolf and Yuuri to tell. Yuuri put a dampened cloth on the back of his prince consort's neck before he answered his brother-in-law.

"He's just having morning sickness this morning, that's all." he said as he rubbed soothing circles on Wolf's back. The action was watched by Conrart and he felt a sudden jealous urge to push the black haired man out of the way and comfort his cub. He knew his feelings were unjustified, and it bothered him even more. Wolf was married and the Prince Consort to the Maou of Shin Makoku, and it was no longer his place to try to pacify a married man.

After a few more bouts of nausea, Wolfram was settled into the large bed with assurances of his sons' welfare. The nanny would look after them while Wolf rested under the hawk-like eyes of Gisela. The king and Conrart went outside for their customary morning run. He couldn't help but remember the unsteady relationship of his baby brother and Yuuri. He chuckled at the memory of their confessions to each other…..

"Wolf," Yuuri started, obviously quite nervous, "I have something to tell you, but I'm afraid to." He bit his lip from the nerves. Wolf just "Hmmphed" and crossed his arms over his chest before tearing into his fiance.

" You know, Yuuri, you are such a wimp, so why not just come out and say it? You don't like me, because I'm a male, and you would rather marry some dubious hussy, and and…." Wolf broke down sobbing and tried to run from Yuuri, but was stopped by his arms going around him. He struggled briefly before resigning to being held by Yuuri. "I was trying to say that I love you. I want to be the one you choose, so," at this, Yuuri pushes him at arms length and delivers a healthy SMACK! to his right cheek.

Wolf's head snapped back at the force of the blow, and when he straightened his head, he slapped Yuuri right back. Yuuri rubbed his stinging cheek and said, "Geez, if you didn't want to, just say so." Wolf looked at him like he was the dumbest thing under the sky. "You wimp. I just accepted your proposal. By slapping you back, I said yes. It's how the Mazoku answer an engagement renewal." Yuuri somehow didn't quite believe that, but he was so happy, he could care less. He felt Wolf snuggle closer to him as they walked back inside to the common room.

Wolf sneaked a shy look up at him before asking "Why now? What made you change your mind?" Yuuri pulled him closer and replied, "I saw you with that young guy. What's his name, Gorganzola?"

"You mean Rochefort." Wolf supplied, helpfully.

"Whatever. All I know is that it's a smelly cheese sounding name. The point is that you are all mine, and I don't want you near Lord Smelly Cheese ever again, ok?"

Wolf thought that it was cute how jealous his maou was. He didn't even bother telling Yuuri that Lord Rochefort von Grantz was his first cousin. "Yes, Yuuri. I only have eyes for you."

Present day

Yuuri looked over at Conrart, wondering what was so funny. The only answer he got was another secretive smile. He knew, but he would never tell.
