AN: So here's the next chapter. Last one I said that the wolf was white. He definitely is supposed to be grey not white. Sorry about that. I will go edit that later.
After a couple of hours I was ready to go get a job. I had driven up to Port Angeles and was cruising the streets trying to see what was around. I didn't want your typical job. I needed to stay physically fit. And this town didn't seem like the type of place that had an underground fighting ring. At least not as far as I knew.
Out of the corner of my eye I noticed a bar called the lions den had a help wanted sign. If I was lucky they needed a bouncer. Or at least a bartender. I quickly pulled my truck over and hopped out of it. Walking up to the front door I noticed that the only windows were covered. This was definitely going to be a interesting place.
I knocked on the door and waited for someone to answer. It was about five o'clock so I knew someone had to be getting the place ready for the nightlife. I just hoped it wasn't some really weird place. I could handle strip clubs but some places just went way over the top.
After a moment a guy opened the door and gave me a cocky smirk. I resisted the urge to roll my eyes as he more than obviously checked me out.
"How can I help you princess?" he smirked. It almost made me gag.
"Is the manager around?" I asked trying to ignore his wandering eyes.
"What can Brian do for you that I can't princess." He asked.
I frowned. "Is Brian the manager?" The guy nodded. "Well then he is the one I want to talk to."
"Come on princess." The man said as he moved away from the door. As he showed me to the bar I quickly took in the scene. It was pretty much your typical bar, but it seemed to have a heavy metal feel about it.
"Brian's behind the bar." He said dismissing me. I growled at him under my breath but moved to the bar without saying something back. I really needed a job and a bar or club was a good place to blend in.
"Can I help you?" a tall guy with buzzed hair said as he continued to clean some glasses.
"I saw your sign out front that you needed some help." I said.
The man glanced up to me and gave me a small smile. "Sorry sweetheart. I need a bouncer and I don't think you'll cut it."
I frowned. "Wanna bet?"
The man nodded. "Sure. Tell you what. If you can hold your own against Patrick I'll give you a shot kay?"
I nodded. "Who's Patrick?"
"I am." Said a voice behind me. I turned to see a rather good looking guy with shaggy black hair and a well built body.
I couldn't help it. I smiled at him. He was cute.
"Patrick wins and you can find some place out to work. You win, I'll give you a week to impress me." The man behind the bar said.
"So when do we spare?" I asked, slightly eager.
Patrick smiled at me. "Right now."
Two hours later I laughed as Patrick clapped me on the back while we headed to the front door. The sparing had gone well and I started work the next night.
"Really Britt it's no big deal. The guys that tend to come here sometimes try and bother the ladies but they know to look for us boys, so with you around they won't know what hit them." Patrick said as Brain gave us a quick wave bye. "Personally I think its brilliant."
I laughed and nodded. "Especially if I really do need to hit them."
Patrick nodded. "Exactly. You certainly can fight." He stopped when we reached the door. "So see you tomorrow night then."
Again I nodded. "Okay see you then." We shook hands and then I was on my way home. I was exhausted, but I really really hoped this job worked out.
Once I got home I couldn't help looking out the back door to see if the wolf from earlier was there. He wasn't. With a disappointed sigh I closed the door. Not that I had really been expecting him to be there but the wolf had calmed me down and made me feel safe. Silly, I know but when you were part of a pack for five years, I guess the idea of another wolf being around made this place feel more like home.
Slowly I made my way to bed. The strain from the past couple days was starting to get to me and I was quickly falling to sleep. I just hoped I didn't dream. I didn't want to have to face any dreams yet.
(page break)
I woke up to a whining and something nudging my arm anxiously. At first I was slightly groggy to respond, still stuck in my sleep, but after a moment I realized something was in my room with me and I quickly jumped up with a startled yelp.
My eyes adjusted quickly as I took in the wolf that whined and nervously breathed in every inch of my body. I was surprised to see the wolf in my room. Part of me was really nervous but the site of the wolf calmed me greatly.
As he checked over me I carefully reached out to stroke him before breaking down and flinging my arms around his neck, throwing all safety aside and balling my eyes out into his coat. He froze and started to whimper in a gentle almost soothing tone. I dug my face deeper into his neck and just took in a deep breath. He smelt woodsy and musky but at the same time had a clean human like scent to him. I liked it and took in another deep breath of it.
The wolf pulled gently away from me and gently woofed in my face before nudging me. I gave him a weak tear filled smile. I was starting to remember my dream. It wasn't a bad one either. It was one of our many movie nights. Luka and Christian were snuggling, with me and Wyandot on the floor beside them. We were watching a chick flick for the hundreth time and quoting it out loud in horrible accents. 'I'll never have those movie nights again.' The thought jumped into my mind before I could stop it and I started to ball my eyes out once again causing the wolf to whine anxiously and gently nudge my face again.
"I'm sorry wolf." I said as I tried to dry my tears. I felt horrible for using the wolf as a tissue, but at the same time I was really happy to see him. I frowned at him as I ran my hand through his coat. "How'd you get in?" I murmured.
The wolf gave me a sheepish look before turning towards my stairs. With a slight bark he trotted down my stairs and towards my back door. I followed confused and groaned when I saw the whole in the glass of my back door.
"Oh no. Seriously wolf!" I whined as I carefully stepped around the glass that lay scattered on the floor. I was really annoyed but at the same time it was kind of sweet that the wolf had shown up at my house in the middle of the night. That thought made me wonder how the wolf knew that I needed him.
As I finally made it to the door I carefully stepped through the huge hole and moved to sit in the grass. My brain was starting to go into hyperdrive. I could feel the wolf come and sit next to me. A cool wind caused me to shiver and the wolf quickly curled around me. Without hesitating I leaned against him and sighed.
"You have some explaining to do wolf." I said without any real emotion in my voice.
'Okay let's go over the facts. There is a pack of wolves in LaPush. They are not normal wolves, but they aren't the same as Luka and Christian. They are the size of a horse, or at least wolf is. They obviously understand human speech, but that doesn't explain how he knew I needed some comfort.'
The wolf yawned and laid his huge head onto my lap. I started to rub his ears and smiled when he started to purr in contentment. "I'm serious wolf. I want answers." The wolf twitched his ear. I wasn't sure if he was acknowledging me or ignoring me but I continued. It was surprisingly easy to talk to this wolf.
"But mostly I want my door fixed." I yawned as sleep started to overcome me again. I don't think I was making much sense. But I didn't care. My wolf's coat was warm and soft. 'Did I just call him my wolf?' I thought with a wry smile as the wolf curled tighter around me.
AN: Hello everyone. Sorry this chapter is kind of short but its better than nothing. I just had to update it. I don't know if anyone is interested but the wolf Wyandot in this story is actually named after a grey wolf that I have been lucky enough to meet and even gotten slobbered on by. He lives at Red Wolf Sanctuary in Rising Sun Indiana (USA). The sanctuary is non profit and is in desperate need of donations to help care for the wolves and other animals. If you're interested checking it out their website is . The place is amazing. Anyways hope you like the chapter!
