A/N: Rawr! Royal Dragon here! I'm so sorry I've been MIA for so long. A lot has been going on in my life right now I just can't even explain. But I'm back after some massive writer's block and a lot of shit I had to go through. I'm very sorry I didn't update Rockstars first but I'm getting to that one next I promise. For some reason this was the one that came to me first. Anyway enjoy.

I woke up bright and early the next morning to a cold bed. Sniffing the air I knew Roxas hadn't been gone long, probably about an hour at the most.

Jumping up I rushed out of the bedroom and around the house until I finally found Roxas in the kitchen.

"I made breakfast. I'm sorry about yesterday." He whispered ears flattening against his head and tail puffing out.

With a sigh I strolled over and reached out to rub the base of Roxas ears. Eyes closing the fur on his tail began to settle down and his tail started to wag.

"Thanks for making breakfast Roxy." I whispered trying not to break the spell that he was currently under.

"Mmm welcome." He hummed nuzzling my hand and pressing closer.

We stayed like that for a while until breakfast began to get cold. With a red face Roxas sat down and began to dig in. After breakfast Roxas excused himself so he could go out and do a little hunting with his friends Hayner, Pence and Olette. While he was off I went to go and visit Sora and Riku two wolves who had recently joined our Pack.

As the Alpha I had to know who was joining, and who left. Along with who was having pups, who died and not to mention when the few Challenges arrived. Riku and Sora had come from a very strict Pack and had barely escaped with their lives.

When they had figured out our Pack was accepting of everyone they quickly fled to us for shelter and protection which I graciously offered.

They hadn't been here long a few days but I wanted to make sure they were settling in ok. Since we had more than enough houses I put them in the one closest to mine in case they had any questions and needed me immediately. Knocking on the door Riku was the one to answer.

"Axel." He said startled as I offered a small smile. "W-W-What brings you here?"

"Just wanted to check on you two, make sure you guys were settling in ok." I answered.

"Oh thank you. Come in please. Sorry about Sora he hasn't changed back yet. It's really hard for him to shift back when he's scared or upset." Riku responded crossing over and leading me into the living room where Sora was lying.

His tail thumped weakly on the floor when we entered. After seeing me his tail stopped and he whined until Riku crouched down beside him.

"I mean no harm." I said holding my hands up.

Sora let out another whimper as Riku kneeled down beside him.

I didn't get any closer than Riku allowed me to. Once he had calmed his Mate down I kneeled down beside him and held my hand out for him to sniff.

As he did I kept my other hand in view so that I didn't frighten him.

"It must have been pretty bad if your Mate can't even shift back." I said when Sora had sniffed my hand and laid his head back down with a whimper.

"Yeah it was. He's been like this for about two weeks now. He's extremely sensitive to emotions so it's hard for him to shift from human to wolf." Riku responded running a hand through his Mate's fur.

"I've been taking care of a stray wolf for fifteen years now. His name is Roxas. He's the same way as Sora, I usually rub the base of his ears and it calms him enough to shift back. Have you tried that?" I asked.

With a shake of his head Riku reached over and began massaging the base of his Mate's ears.

Nuzzling Riku's hand it wasn't long before Sora had calmed down and changed back. Turning around I waited until Sora was decent before turning back around.

"Thank you so much." Sora cried. "I've been trying so hard to change back but I've been so scared. Riku and I have been in love since we were children and once we Mated we thought that our Pack would accept us. But they didn't and we had to run leaving everything behind. We knew if they found us they would kill us so we barely slept and ate for fear they would find us. You saved us. We heard that our Pack arrived shortly after demanding for you to turn us in but you didn't and we are so thankful!"

"You're very welcome. Our Pack is very accepting here so if you ever have any questions you can come to me at any time. Our healer Aerith is also a very kind wolf and she'll help you out if I can't." I said with a small smile.

Giving me grateful smiles I answered more of their questions before taking my leave. I knew they would do just fine here.

When I got home I was surprised to see Roxas there. Wasn't he supposed to be with his friends? When he saw me his ears drooped and his tail thumped limply against the ground.

"Hey why aren't you out with your friends?" I asked.

"I didn't want to." He grumbled not meeting my eyes.

"Roxas don't lie to me. Why aren't you with your friends?" I asked again.

With a shrug he held his hands out for me to help pull him up.

"Would you like to go out on a hunt? We haven't been on one in a while." I offered.

Whipping around I expected him to get mad and yell at me but his ears perked up and his tail began wagging a thousand miles an hour.

"Yes! Of course! When? Right now? Can we go right now? It's just going to be us right?" He asked.

"Woah, woah! Yeah it's just going to be us." I chuckled ruffling his blond hair.

Roxas squealed in delight and hurriedly began to undress. Throwing his clothes in a random pile Roxas quickly shifted into his wolf counterpart. With a yip his tail began to wag a million miles an hour as he jumped around excitedly waiting for me.

Opening the door up I let Roxas outside as I disrobed, threw my clothes inside and shut the door behind me. Shifting into my wolf counterpart I trotted up to Roxas and nuzzled his neck.

With another yip he leaned down his ass in the air, tail wagging. Leaning his head forward he nipped at my legs. When I growled playfully at Roxas, he dropped down and whimpered his ears pinned back against his head.

Padding over I nudged him and whined. Realizing that I had been playing he jumped up and nuzzled my neck. With a nip to my flank he was off. We played for a good while before going off to hunt. Normally when eating Roxas would wait until I began since I was the Alpha but I nudged him forward.

After staring at me for a few minutes he began to eat greedily. He didn't even lift his head to see if I had begun eating. I didn't mind though I found it entertaining.

When he did realize that I hadn't started eating he choked down his bite of food and pinned his ears against his head. I nudged him forward but when he wouldn't eat I started in on the deer.

Later that night as we were relaxing in the house I turned to Roxas to finish my questioning.

"You never told me, why you weren't with your friends." I started.

With a sigh Roxas turned away but not before I saw that pretty crimson blush spread across his cheeks.

"Yes I did." He growled.

"Roxas..." I warned. He knew what would happen if he didn't tell me the truth. I knew when someone was lying to me and when someone was telling me the truth.

"I didn't want to go!" He whimpered.

"Last chance. You're lying to me and I know it." I growled.

Hopping up from the couch Roxas scoffed and attempted to make his way to the door. I had never made Roxas submit before because I cared about him and he was so young. He always listened to me but today for some reason he wouldn't and I was tired of playing nice wolf.

"Roxas!" I roared sending out the pheromones to force him to submit to me.

He dropped like a ton of bricks gasping for air. I could hear his heart rate as it beat rapidly against his ribcage. Going to stand in front of him I saw a sheen of sweat on his forehead. His eyes were bulging out of his head and his breathing was rapid.

"P- p- please st- stop." He wheezed.

"Not until you submit to me! You will not tell me anymore lies!" I roared.

"N- n- no m- m- more lies!" He whimpered.

"You will tell me the truth." I commanded sending another harsh wave of pheromones his way.

Curling up into a small ball Roxas whimpering turned into loud sobs. I had been put under Submission before but it was ten times worse than what I was putting Roxas through. It not only hurt physically but it was mental as well.

After being put under Submission most people were exhausted and tended to rest for a few days to recuperate their lost energy. Only Alphas could put another wolf under Submission. I had been put under when I refused to relinquish Roxas to the hands of our old Alpha. I had not submitted to him, I refused to break because I knew I could never give him up to the hands of that monster!

I let up slowly and finally when it was over I saw him visibly relax. Scooping the blond wolf up in my arms I carried him to my room and laid him down.

"Roxy are you ok?" I asked smoothing back sweaty hair.

Nodding he curled into an even tighter ball as I reached out to stroke his face.

"I'm not going to hurt you. You're safe now. I went very light on you, lighter than I have with most of the Pack here. I've let you get by with this for too long. I am the Alpha and you need to understand that. I'll let you rest for a while I'll be back later on to check on you." I said with a sigh.

By the next day Roxas had barely moved a muscle. Every time he saw me he whimpered and tried to get away.

"I'm not going to hurt you." I whispered holding my hands up and slowly making my way to my bed.

Shifting further away I reached a hand out intending to brush his hair away. Sweat was dripping down his forehead as he continued to try and get away.

"Roxas? Roxas what's wrong?" I asked barely shaking him. He moaned as a way of answer. "Just hold on I'll go get Aerith!" I cried.

Aerith's house wasn't to far away and I ran as quickly as I could almost barging in her house as I got there.

"Axel?" Aerith asked throwing the door open. "Is everything alright?"

"No, it's Roxas." I panted rushing back to my house.

Aerith arrived a few minutes later and I told her how I had put Roxas under Submission. Feeling his forehead I waited as patiently as I could for Aerith to tell me what was wrong. It took all of five minutes before she started chuckling.

"Can you smell that?" She asked turning bright eyes to me.

I sniffed the air and was hit immediately with a fruity scent. It smelled like strawberries and apples. My mouth started watering as I realized the scent was coming from Roxas. Then it hit me, Roxas was in heat.

"I thought only female wolves could go into heat?" I hissed after following Aerith back into the living room.

"You do realize that he's a hybrid right? Rules like this don't exactly apply to hybrids." She whispered. "I'm not sure how long it's going to last either. For most wolves it only lasts until their either Mated or for a week at the longest. It could be longer for him. Just be there for him." She said with a wink.

Be with him? Oh god she couldn't mean... No! There was no way! A blush rose to my face making her laugh even harder. So did everyone know about my crush on Roxas now? Patting me on the back she gave me a few more instructions before taking her leave. After she had gone I went back into the bedroom to check on Roxas. He still hadn't moved and when he saw me this time he attempted to sit up.

"S- So h- hot." He whimpered burying his face under one of the pillows.

Coming over I sat down on the side of the bed and pulled the pillow away.

"Roxy how long have you been feeling like this?" I asked.

"Few days. I was able to hide it but Olette smelled me. That's why I came home. Then you put me under Submission. To weak now to block it." He whispered.

So it was my fault that he was suffering. Olette had the sharpest nose in the Pack so I wasn't surprised that she had smelled it first. But why would he lie about it? Sure no male had ever gone into heat before but what was so wrong with talking to Aerith about it?

Crawling on the bed I wrapped my arms around Roxas thin frame and pulled him close.

"I'm so sorry Roxas. I didn't realize... why didn't you say anything?" I asked.

Turning over to face me there were tears in his eyes and his cheeks were a rosy red. His once sapphire blue eyes were clouded over in lust and his breathing was heavy.

"I... didn't..." He started sniffling. Closing his eyes he seemed to be attempting to gather his thoughts but shook his head instead.

"Roxas?" I whispered.

"Please leave. I can barely hold myself back." He whimpered.

I left him there alone that night and slept in the living on the small couch that barely housed my large frame. When I dreamed it was of Nina, she had come back for Roxas. I knew it was a dream almost immediately. Nina would never come back for her son because she was dead.

Someone had killed her the same night as she dropped Roxas off I was sure of that. When she hadn't come for Roxas by the next morning I carried him in my mouth as I sniffed around looking. He refused to go with anyone and when I tried to leave he wailed until I came back.

Without trying he shifted into a baby wolf and toddled over. Falling back on his haunches he yipped at me until I picked him up. I saw the traces of blood on the grass and followed them until they suddenly disappeared. He was only days old but already he recognized the scent of his mother and attempted a howl.

The blood was gone and so was the body along with the scent. Who would have done this? Who would have had a motive to kill an innocent baby's mother and why?

Groaning I rolled over and tried to fall back asleep to no avail. The moon was shining bright tonight and I was having a hard time sleeping. Sitting up I figured I should at least go check on Roxas.

He was already sitting up in the bed holding a blanket tightly to him. His clothes had been discarded on the floor and his breathing was heavy.

"So hot. Please make it go away." He moaned reaching a hand out. The moon shone brightly in the room and my vision adjusted quickly to the night as I watched him start crawling towards me.

Tail swishing and ears flat against his head he crawled closer until he was at the edge. His eyes were bright and his erection was already standing at attention and dripping pre cum. He kept licking those pretty plump lips and his skin shone brightly under the rays of the moon. Even his nipples were standing at attention. His whole body was rigid waiting for me to make the next move. I had no choice but to meet him there and he scaled my body bringing me down with him. He pulled me into a sultry kiss already attempting to rid me of my clothes.

I could feel his erection pressing against my stomach as he managed to tug my shirt off. I had to end this. He was so young, the heat would pass but if we did this tonight it would last forever. We would be bound together for life. We would be Mates and that was a bond that was not easily broken.
