Chapter 12 Family Bond
Previously on Forever With An Human…
"WE HAVE SOME SURVIVORS!" He called to the others not taking his eyes off me for a second. The others joined him inching to us barking vigorously.
"Chris I'm scared" Lilly replied nervously looking up at me.
"I'm going to get us out of this…" I said slowly backing up.
Chris and Lilly we're trapped, with nowhere to go circled by vigorous wolves inching closer to shred them apart. Blood was soaked upon the wolves coated fur, as it seemed rough and prickled. One of the wolves left fang was missing due to likely a strike to the muzzle. Death was calling Chris and Lilly's name as the clouds smothered the sun surrounding them all in darkness. Speckles of water drops fell from the sky softly pecking the ground with small thuds.
A jet black wolf with yellow cold eyes was inching towards them snickering his teeth. This wolf is completely built as if he wasn't even a wolf. His image was much acquire to an jet black alpha lion. The paws on this wolf was massive, his fangs were longer than usual, and claws can chump down a full grown tree. Clearly he's the dominant leader of this pack and serves a purpose. The closest wolf crouched into launching position and leaped at them claws first. Chris turned his back to protect an already physically and mentally hurt Lilly. Causing himself an devastating pain as the wolf clawed into his back several times. Leaving a deep gash while thick blood soaked his shirt briskly. Chris almost lost his balance to the hard blow on his back but stayed strong to his life promises. Lilly whimpered in fear and seen another wolf running towards them to kill.
"Lookout!" Lilly screamed catching his attention. Chris whipped his head around and simply moved out the way making the attacking wolf clash with his own pack members.
Chris seen the opening that was available and took it, hauling ass northern where Lilly's pack supposedly should be. The wolves recovered from their fall and all as a unit chased after them.
"YOU FOOLS DON'T LET THEM GET AWAY!" The alpha leader yelled while chasing them.
The wolves were catching up faster than they should because Chris was severely hurt. Lilly noticed this first and dugg her head into his chest expecting the worse to happen. One of the wolves was an decent amount of feet away from them and launched at Chris's leg. Biting down as hard as she could causing Chris to scream in agony while a few tears escaped his eyes. Chris effortlessly did a 360 spin flinging her into a old fallen tree knocking her unconscious. But that still helped the wolves in their favor because it wasted time for them to catch up. The alpha wolf jumped in front of Chris before he could start running again and backed them into the other pack members behind.
"Looks like you have nowhere else to run...I've always wondered how it felt to kill a human...I guess I'm about to find out" The alpha wolf said in a deep crackled voice, smirking evilly moving closer.
"Why are you doing this?" Chris asked trying not to put so much pressure on his hurt leg.
"Are you seriously asking that right now?" He asked chuckling, stopping in his steps. Chris and Lilly looked at the wolf puzzled with no clue what he's talking about. The wolf cleared his throat and held up his paw for his pack to hold back.
"Sorry for the rude approach but let me formally introduce myself..the name is Cain..the most feared wolf in all the land...I've lied stole and even killed my own family to earn my way to the top...it took me five years of recruiting the coldest-heart blooded killers to fulfil one dream we all want to accomplish" Cain said calmly with a smirk sitting down.
"And what is that?...to be the devil's little sluts?" Chris insulted showing no fear within him.
"No I'm much more formidable than Satan himself...I want to be the most powerful pack of all time...we've wiped out every pack so far and I'm that much closer" Cain said with a wider smirk.
"So you're going to wipe out every pack in Canada and cause an extinction?...that's such a dumbass plot" Chris said and the wolves growled behind him, startling Lilly into a ball in Chris's arms. But Chris the wise man he is, showed no fear to these wolves.
"Well not an extinction for us but for whoever that isn't with us...years of preparation has finally paid off and I'm going down in my packs history as the worthiest wolf to ever accomplish such an achievement...wolves from next generations will praise me as the wolf who did it all...we are to be the last pack left to populate Canada and let it be well-known...but first..these Western and Eastern mutts are the ones to be terminated...until then...I'll be damned if a human intercept our plans" Cain said pulling out his claws growling viciously.
"It's seems like you're more worried about me there for a second why's that?" Chris asked backing up a little bit.
"I know what you humans are cable of...you can wipe out the face of the Earth's crust in a heartbeat...I've seen a sample of it yesterday with the gas..you've put fear in my packs heart and owe them your death" Cain said with a low loud growl.
"I am the one you're terrified of...because I have things like this?" Chris said pulling out his gun pointing it to Cain's pack members. They all coward down in fear backing away from him.
"Seems like extinction wouldn't make you or you're future pack the most powerful after all...humans are at the top of the food chain and is always gonna have you running...that's how it is and how it always will be" Chris said firmly and Cain growled loudly launching at him only to get pistol whipped to the ground.
Chris took off running on a limp ignoring the intense pain echoing throughout his body. Without hesitation or orders the wolves took off after him ready to quench their thirst with his blood. Adrenaline flowed through Chris body managing him to outdo the impossible hopping fallen logs and gaping rocks. The wolves caught up fairly quickly, running next to them trying to snap at Chris's forearm. Lilly let out a small scream when Chris shot his gun killing the wolf instantly. Cain had enough of this child's play and ran up a tree using it's hardness to fling himself forward at Chris full force. Cain tackled Chris knocking the wind out of his chest and Lilly flew out his arms trampling down a small hill. Chris tried to reach for his knife but Cain bit his already damaged forearm from yesterday's attack. He cried out in pain as blood leaked out his arm and Cain licked his bloody muzzle clean. Cain walked over to Chris's neck in a dominant position over him and said.
"Now who is at the top of the chain?...humans are a disgrace to this planet and is just as worthless as dirt...you in other words aren't even worth being called a human...even worse...a piece shit it what you are" Cain said eviling moving down to his neck but Chris held him up with all his strength while he snapped at his throat. He managed to bold his fist and punch Cain with a few hard punches pissing him off even more. The other wolves were coming to hold Chris down to be executed.
"Chris take this!" Lilly said sliding his slightly bloody knife to him. Chris picked up hastily swing it as Cain but his reaction time was on point dodging the knife.
Chris rose himself up on two feet holding his knife in front of him ready to stab anyone who fucks with him.
"Come on fight like the man you claim you are" Cain said as they circled each other.
"You think I'm stupid you have a advantage" Chris said refusing to fight him without the knife.
"Either fight me without the knife or the pup dies" Cain said motioning his pack to Lilly.
"Lilly run!" Chris yelled but it was too late. One of his members grabbed her by the neck and bit down slightly causing her to yelp.
"Chris help me please!" Lilly begged with tears streaming down her cheeks.
"Don't worry Lilly I'll get us out of this" Chris said looking back at her, then Cain growled jointing his attention back to him.
"You should never take your eyes off the enemy" Cain said with a smooth low voice. Chris threw his knife aside and said.
"Even with my eyes closed I can still kick your furry ass" Chris said standing in a defensive boxing position. Cain had enough of the small talk and tried to pounce him, but Chris was quick off his feet rolling out the way.
Cain came in for a second attack and was punched causing him to whimper slightly. His pack all gasped at once as if it was something that doesn't happen often.
"Ehh that was cute…" Cain said licking away his own blood before striking Chris across his chest with his razor sharp claws.
Chris screamed in pain falling to his knees holding his now bloody chest. Cain slowly walked over to him and clawed his back making Chris fall completely on the ground.
"Chris no!...let me go you fuckheads" Lilly said trying to break free from the wolves grasp to no prevail. Cain was circling the downed Chris who is still recovering from his blows.
"Humans...they're defensiveness without their gadgets just as I thought...you mean to tell me we have creatures like you on top of the whole world?" Cain asked firmly, Chris tried to hit him with a slow weak punch just to miss horribly.
"Pathetic...you will never defeat me or any predator in this forest..you're nothing but an fraud of a human destroying the world...killing you is doing a favor to all kinds of species" Cain said placing his muzzle around his neck.
"NO!" Lilly yelled sneezing her way out of the wolf grasp running to Chris full speed.
"Hey get back here" The wolf said chasing after her.
Lilly was a few feet away from saving Chris's life but was slapped by Cain knocking her unconscious. Her body flew into a nearby rock with a small thud. Lilly's looked as if she was lifeless on the ground. Chris took this chance and kneed Cain in the ribcage causing him to groan. Chris moved up to his feet and punched Cain as hard as he could in the face. Punching him repeatedly leading him to a nearby steep cliff. He tried to strike back a few times but Chris doged them as they came effortlessly. Cain wasn't falling in defeat he stayed on his paws relentless to go down. Chris ran towards him full speed tackling Cain to the ground giving him hard blows to the face.
"Go to sleep go to sleep go to sleep go to sleep" Chris said repeatedly as he punched him but Cain refused. Cain rolled over on top and was snapping at him while Chris used all his might to keep him off.
Before Cain's sharp teeth had a meeting with Chris's face; Cain was tackled by a unknown wolf. Chris rose up to his feet and seen that it was Eve who tackled him. Winston and his alphas all ran in for back up ready to fight if they have to. Cain was oddly quick to escape Eve grasp and paced back and forward a good distance away from them. With his small pack members behind him growling. The small droplets of rain then began to form bigger. Falling harder creating a loud commotion of cries at the rain slapped the ground.
"Cain" Winston said in a hatred voice.
"Winston" Cain said with a evil smirk.
"Why are you doing this?" Winston asked.
"Isn't it obvious..pack dominance...soon I'll wipe out you and everyone in your pack until we're the last standing in Canada...but the first thing on my list is killing that fucking human" Cain said barking and growling loudly at Chris only to be growled back at by the alphas.
"Cain we can talk this out" Winston said camly.
"There's no time for talking I'm running out of patience...I'll be back in a year deep as ever with an army of wolves...no one's has ever defeated me or gave my pack a run for our tails...thanks to this human I'm sparing your packs lives...leave Canada or be killed the choice is yours" Cain said still pacing side to side breathing heavily.
"We're not going anywhere..if a fight is what you want that's what you'll get" Winston said firmly with no regret.
"Fine!...just know I'm coming for the human first so don't standing in my way" Cain said smiling at Chris's evilly running away with his pack following him. After he was out of sight all the attention turned to Chris who just stood there with a innocent face.
"What?" Chris said moving his now soaked hair away from his face.
"What did you do to him?" Winston said walking up to Chris.
"I almost beat him in a fight" Chris said and everyone gasped.
"What's the big commotion about it was just a fight?" Chris continued on confused.
"Just a fight?...you just fought a wolf who has been undefeated all his life..if you beat him that means you are now his packs leader" Winston said seeming to be thinking about something.
"Wait really?" Chris asked in clearity of shock, holding his fist feeling like he's the shit now.
"Yes really...we have no choice but to train you...Cain's going to be back in a year" Winston said sitting down.
"Honey this is dangerous he hasn't even been accepted in our pack yet" Eve said.
"What other choice do we have?...you heard Cain and you know how relentless he is...I am not giving in to him...not again" Winston said with emotion in his voice. From behind them, there was a young moan catching everyone's attention to the sound. Lilly was recovering from her blow from Cain and was weak to stand up.
"Lilly…are you okay?" Eve asked running to her aid checking all over her body.
"Mom I'm okay..just d-dizzy" Lilly said trying to stand and walk only to fall down again whimpering.
"Come on dear on my back you go" Eve said placing Lilly on her back.
"M-Mom I said..I'm f-fine" Lilly said sounding as if she was half conscious.
"Try to stay with me Lilly don't sleep on me' Eve said as she walked to where they were stationed.
Chris felt a sharp pain in his stomach and covered it hastily with his hand to ease the pain. When he withdrew his hand, it was soaked in dark warm blood. Before he managed to say anything, his eyes rolled to the back of his head, then he fell on the cool bloody dirt with a loud thud. This snapped Lilly into reality and she rushed to Chris side escaping her moms lecture. Lilly ripped off his shirt with her teeth and admired all his bruises and deep claw gashes. Coming to an explanation that he's dead if she doesn't help him. A pool of blood was slowly evolving around his body and this started to freak Lilly out. Chris body was brutally beaten and marked up with cuts that are going to have a story behind them.
"We have to help him or he's going to die" Lilly said looking back at her parents trying to hold in the tears running away from her lavender eyes.
"Alex...take him to the pack healer...alphas go with her and make sure he makes it there safe" Winston ordered and they all nodded doing as he commanded. Carefully dragging him on Alex back taking off to the healers new den. Lilly was setting off to follow them but Winston stopped her.
"Not you, you're coming with us" Winston said picking her up by the scruff of her neck carrying her a different direction.
"But-But..I want to be with him..leave me alone" Lilly said trying to wiggle her way out watching the alphas carry Chris away.
Time Skip…
Chris P.O.V.
Drops of liquid was tapping my aching forehead as my eyes flickered open. There was a wolf hovering over me dripping for what it seems like water onto my shirtless body. The wolf touched my gashing cuts and I groaned in pain causing me to sit up. She backed away in fright frozen on the spot. Probably surprised I woke up so soon or afraid I'm going to hurt her. My ears was ringing loudly and there was crawling sounds near my ear. The first reaction was to flick my ears from the potential bug crawling on me. But when I did it, I noticed the spider was on the ground some feet away from me crawling. This through me off that my hearing just suddenly increased by a lot, that I was hearing a spider crawl that's nowhere near me. I had then evaluated where I am and what is happening to me all at once; it was a slightly dark humid den, surrounded by injured wolves of all varieties. The gashes on my chest was actually feeling better other than what happened a few seconds ago. I felt my chest with my hands and noticed they were covered with leaves and some sort of minty herb to keep it in place. When my eyes perked up at the stranger wolf, she cowered in fear whining for her life.
"Please don't h-hurt me..I am just doing my job" She said with an frightened heart.
"Hey hey relax..I'm not going to hurt you calm down" I said in a calm friendly tone.
"How do I know you're not just saying that?..I've heard tons of stories about humans and what they do to us" She said not believing me.
"There's always two sides of a story you can't just live off one side without knowing the other" I said groaning a bit as I adjusted the leaves on my chest.
She didn't have the chance to finish bandaging me completely because I woke up; but I started to investigate the meds wolves use. I remember Alex telling me she uses bugs and poison in her herbs for wolves to drink. Not sure how she mixed it in a way to make it helpful than dangerous but I'll find out. Everything from then on I've been curious about when it comes to meds wolves use. It's also quite fascinating how wolves don't do much different than humans when it comes to meds. All this time I thought wolves left the weak to die alone. Unfortunately that doesn't happen, wolves are dependent on each other and actually have a heart. Well, this pack has a heart for pack members at least, it's unknown for other packs after today.
There was this yellow looking liquid that was inside half a coconut shell and my curious mind lusted me to touch it. The smell of the substance gave me an urge to sneeze but my mind of focused enough to ignore it. My middle finger was almost inside the coconut to feel the weird looking substance until.
"I wouldn't touch that if I was you" She said sounding less frightened and more strict.
"Why not what is it?" I asked holding the shell watching the liquid move inside, smelling for what seems toxic.
"Its stomach acid" She replied.
"Yep, that explains a lot" I said sitting it back down in its prime.
"So..what happened to you?...looks like you've been through hell you were sweating in your sleep " She said placing some herbs on a injured wolf keeping herself busy.
"It feels like I am in hell right now" I said referring to my health of torture. There were forming bruises all over my chest and arms; every little move I made I felt damn near every muscle tense up.
"You took on a good beating..lucky enough I was here to help in time" She said placing leaves on the wolf she's aiding as he shivered in slight pain.
"And what your name may be?" I asked politely, watching her work on the wolf.
"I don't know if I should tell you that" She said timidly.
"Well then I'll go first..my name is Chris I live on the outskirts of Jasper to help and study many species of animals in this area" I said as truthfully as I could.
"Wait were you the one I heard hunted caribou for the whole pack?" She asked raising her full attention to me.
"Yep that's me" I said with a small smile.
"Oh.." She said somewhat surprised.
"Let me guess...you thought I was a wolf?" I asked and she only nodded before working back on the wolf. It was a small quiet silence before she decided to speak up after finishing with the wolf. My nose had a mind of its own, sniffing harshly in the direction of a delicious smell.
"What is that delicious smell?...I can really fed on something right now I'm craving" I said with my mind floating out my head into heaven. Licking my dry crusty lips in desire for food.
"It's probably the caribou not too far from here" She said putting one last bandage on the wolf. I snapped out of my daze when she had said that. "Did I really just call dead raw caribou delicious?.. something isn't right" I thought.
"How far exactly?" I asked curious.
"Almost a mile...half the pack is in the feeding grounds right now" She said cleaning herself from the blood on her paws.
"Woah" I said to the weird fact I smelled some rotten caribou from almost a mile away. Then have the sudden appetite to eat some caribou. I thought about it for a few seconds and just shoved it off. Maybe I hit my head hard enough again to have me acting this way.
"My name is Louise but most wolves calls me Lou" She said moving the coconut shell replacing it with another one that's filled with another substance.
"Nice to me you Louise...thank you for fixing me up I owe you one" I said with a smile.
"It's nothing just doing my job and it's nice to meet you too..you're nothing like what I heard from rumors" Louise replied with a small smirk.
"What are the rumors?" I asked curious.
"Oh um, I think it's best if I don't tell you" Louise said sounding like she's hiding something.
"Okay I guess" I said searching for my shirt to see it's bloody and ripped up in the corner of the den.
"You never told me what happened to you" Louise said starting another subject to kill the silence.
"Some wolf by the name of Cain put up a fight with me" I said and she gasped inflicting pain on the injured wolf; enforcing too much pressure on his wound.
"You fought Cain and lived?...no one has ever done that" She said somewhat amazed.
"Yeah supposedly he's coming back for another war in a year and if I don't leave he's going to wipe out you guys pack" I explained in disbelief, not having a clue what to do next but leave forever.
"Wait what do you mean wipe out the pack?-"
"Ahh you're awake..I was beginning to be worried about you...as for you Louise you can have a break Alex will handle it from here when she gets back thank you" Winston said walking in with a crooked smile. Louise nodded and went about her business looking back at me for a second before she was out of sight.
"Hey about the war thing..I can just leave and never return I don't want any trouble" I quickly said before Winston could say anything.
"Oh I understand...you can do as you please but let me ask you something if you're not in such a hurry" Winston said sitting down in front of me gleaming in my eyes.
"Um ok" I said a little shook.
"How would you feel if someone intrude your home... destroyed all your belongings...killed your family but left you alive so you can witness it helplessly?" Winston said firmly.
"I understand what you're trying to get at but this a bit of a personal issue" I said.
"So you lied to us and our packs?" Winston questioned.
"What are you talking about?" I asked confused.
"Well you said it yourself that you were here to help when we are in danger...now I know who you really are" Winston said with a stern glare, before turning away to walk out the den until I stopped him.
"You really think I can defeat a skillful wolf two times my size?" I asked staring at the ground then looking up at him.
"You almost did today..why do you say such a thing?" Winston asked turning his head back.
"It's only because you guys helped me I would've died today..he has advantages and well...just look at me" I said referring to my gashes, claw marks, cuts, and bruises.
"Why does it matter what I say or think?" Winston asked.
"Why does it matter what you say or think?...you're the one who approved the war in the first place" I said not understanding his point. Winston walked over to me face to face almost and said.
"My father once told me..when someone judges you it's only an opinion until you make it a fact" Winston said proudly sitting next to me gazing out the den.
"What does that mean?" I asked.
"If you believe what me or even the pack says about you not defeating Cain instead of yourself...you might as well make it a fact" Winston said and I was lost for words. It was a little bit of a silence until I spoke up clearing my throat.
"When do I start training" I said and he looked over at me with a small smirk.
"You will be in basic training of alpha school first in the fall and will be moved into combat training afterwards" Winston explained.
"Okay sounds fine to me" I said yawning regretting it instantly when my head began to hurt.
"Before we get too far ahead of ourselves...I don't know much about the human body but do whatever you can to heal and avoid unhealthy sequences as possible" Winston said standing up walking towards the exit.
"Winston" I called to him catching his attention.
"How's Lilly?" I asked him and he smiled.
"She's fine she's uh...been worried about you lately" Winston said with a odd chuckle.
"When can I see her?" I asked and Winston thought for a second then smiled slightly.
"Chris do you have feelings for my daughter?" Winston asked.
"Uh umm no..I mean she is a very sweet nice wolf of course but..I just wanted to make sure she was okay" I said hesitantly blushing.
"Hmm..sure you can see her later tonight for dinner" Winston said with a small chuckle before leaving the den.
"Make sure you get a little rest" I heard Winston say outside the den.
When he said that weirdly enough I began to feel sleepy. But there was no way I can fall asleep with half dead wolves around me and a uncomfortable hard floor. I figured maybe I'll just relax for a bit at least until Alex comes to replace Louise's job as healer. The bloody ripped up shirt in the corner was the only comfortable option to lay my head on. When I grabbed the shirt, the blood was leaking off the shirt on to me. I squeeze all the blood out my shirt into this empty coconut shell beside me until the was no more leaking. I then placed the shirt beneath my head and stared at the ceiling of the den in deep thought.
"Why are they coconut shells in the middle of the timberlands?" I asked myself out loud.
Few Hours Later
Lilly's P.O.V.
It has been a few hours since I last seen Chris and I have been aching to know if he's okay. My dad left some time ago to check up on him and never returned. Throughout most of the day I have been lying down at the entrance of our new den watching the day go by. Watching the storm brighten the sky with lighting as the rain turned into mist after some time. When the rain stopped completely, it gave off a new freshly smell of humid air as a rainbow was beautifully visible over the horizon. There was a small puddle in front of me showing off my reflection. As drops of water leaked from the ceiling of the den into the puddle. I couldn't help but to think back when Chris cut my hair after he bathe me. He did a good job grooming me he's really good at that. From now on I'll start to pay more attention to myself than usual. A long sigh escaped my mouth while my tail slowly swayed side to side on the cool dirt. In the background I could hear Kate quiet sobbs over Humphrey after his incident. When Humphrey blacked out, she had stayed by his side since then. Soon the drops of the water made a pattern that was starting to put me to sleep. Then I felt something warm lean against me and I opened my eyes to see it was mom.
"Hey dear how are you feeling?" Mom asked in a mother like tone. I sighed and put my head back on my paws looking out the dens entrance with no response.
"I think there's something we need to discuss" Mom said with sorrow in her voice.
"What is it mom?...go chat with your other favorite daughter " I said curling myself up in a ball closing my eyelids.
"Lilly, I love you both equally" Mom said with emotion in her voice.
"You do?...sure doesn't seems like it she gets all the attention and whatever she wants" I said softly.
"You have to understand sh-"
"She's the oldest and future of the pack blah blah blah nothing's changed..sometimes I feel like you forget you have a second daughter" I said with small tears forming in my eyes.
"I'm sorry I haven't been a good mother lately this is all my fault" Mom said starting to tear up herself. Kate then stood up from Humphrey and walked over to mom with droopy ears.
"N-No mom this is my fault..I made things worse by being so selfish for the attention..I was so caught up in myself that I always ignored you" Kate said feeling guilty.
"It doesn't matter now...you've guys already done too much damage" I said utterly firmly.
"I just wanted to say it wasn't right to leave you out of everything and put Kate before you..my responsibilities as a mother is to aid and show affection to to both my babies but I was so blind to know how you were truly feeling" Mom said with tears streaming down her cheek.
"Lilly I'm so sorry for being so bossy and selfish I didn't ever meant to hurt you please don't hate me forever" Kate said clinging on to her and I half smiled rolling my eyes.
"Look I don't hate you guys I just feel so left out..like I am not apart of anything in our pack" I said as my smile disappeared.
"You're a huge part of our pack because you are family...you might not be as valuable as Kate going to be some day but that doesn't mean you don't have value" Mom said and I bowed my head in disappointment.
"I know and I am sorry for being so harsh on you guys" I said apologetically.
"I think we needed to hard truth..and I promise to never hit you again" Mom said with a smile giving me a big warm hugs. I looked over at Kate and she was smiling widely at us.
"Oh get in here bossy tail" I said pulling her in our group hug. She didn't pull away and happily accepted our hug.
"Well a group hug with me are you kidding me?" Dad said walking up to us with a chuckle.
"Dad!..where's Chris is he okay?!" I asked in worried excitement running up to him demanding a answer.
"Why don't you ask him yourself?" Dad asked sitting next to mom.
"Um hey guys" Chris said slowly walking in waving.
"Chris!" I yelled running to him jumping in his arms.
"Haha nice to know you're okay too" Chris said hugging me tightly.
"Are you staying?" I said pulling away panting with my tail going a mile a minute.
"Yeah for dinner and I have to get home soon to feed Rosie" Chris said putting me down on the ground.
"Ooo ooo can I go with you?" I asked excitedly.
"I need a little time for myself" Chris said and a frown was quickly formed on my face.
"Oh..I understand" I said putting my head down as my tail was flat on the ground.
"Hey brighten up we have all our lives to hang out" Chris said kneeling to me lifting up my head staring in my eyes. I couldn't find any words to say so I just smiled widely. Then suddenly Chris jolted surprised of something at the entrance of the den. I was going to ask him what's wrong but Hutch came in dragging a large caribou.
"Let me help you with that" Chris said walking over to Hutch and grabbed the caribou by the horns.
Effortlessly it slipped out of Hutch's grasp as Chris dragged it to us with no problems. Leaving us all quietly impressed of how he slid it to us without breaking a sweat.
"Woah you're strong for a human it took me 30 minutes dragging that here" Hutch said shocked but impressed.
"Of course he is...he nearly defeated Cain he has to have some kind of strength" Winston said smirking while Chris looked shocked himself he did that.
"I-I...lift at times..but not that much holy shit" Chris said mumbling out the last part admiring his muscles.
"We all have had a long day on empty stomachs and we'll discuss some more things after dinner...Hutch feel free to join us" Mom said sitting in front of the caribou.
"No we can't eat yet Humphrey hasn't woken up yet" Kate said sounding like she's having an emotional breakdown.
"Kate you know the rules...omegas eat last" Dad said stern.
"Lilly's an omega but she doesn't eat last" Kate whined.
"She's in our family" Dad explained.
"Humphrey is family too..if I remembered correctly you were the one who took him in after you found him" Kate said.
"She's right dear you did find him" Mom said smiling in his defeated. What's more expected than the pup that gets everything she wants.
"Alright fine..you can save Humphrey a good half" Dad said sighing and Kate nodded with a smile lying next to him.
"Everyone else dig in" Dad said and went head first into it's stomach. I ran to my favorite part of the caribou and motioned Chris to sit next me.
He smiled and walked over sitting down next to me. Watching be bite into the caribous neck eating the tender parts. This time I'm making sure Chris eats a good bit of caribou meat just to be a asshole to him. My parents is around so there's no way he's telling me no. This is the best prank that I ever thought of, the look on his face is going to be so priceless. Before I could advance with my prank, Chris started digging in like he was a rapid wild wolf, bringing all the attention to him. Blood was all over his face and hands while he slurped up meat from the caribou. He was creating a big mess around himself as he devoured getting a little on me. Chris moaned from apparently how good it tasted causing a few giggles and chuckles. I was surprised how fast he was eating and the fact he loves it now.
"For someone who didn't like it at first sure loves it now" Mom said getting a few laughs from us. Chris then realized what he was doing and wiped away all the blood, but in some places he didn't get them all.
"S-Sorry I haven't eaten anything all day" Chris said seeming to be thinking about something. I was going to question him about it but decided not to.
40 Minutes Later
There was nothing left of the caribou but straps and bones. And of course the big hunky leg that Kate was saving for a possibly dead Humphrey. Kate was cuddled up next to him after only eating a small amount of caribou herself. I still don't know what she sees in him, he's so not her type, but she apparently loves him. Hm, maybe I should tease Kate about her love for Humphrey later. I can get her to admit she does without her knowing. Meanwhile mom and dad was finishing up their side of the caribou while Hutch collected the bones for later. Chris was finished eating before me and was on his I think it's called phone. My stuffed belly dragged across the den floor as I scouted over to him to see what he's doing. Then laid my muzzle on his unhurt forearm gazing at the screen. From the looks of it he was playing some type of awesome looking game.
"What game is that it looks fun" I said with a curious tail wagging behind me.
"Fortnite..it's pretty addicting" Chris said not taking his eyes off his phone.
"How do you play?" I asked watching him play.
"You get dropped down from a flying bus on this island and you have to survive and stay inside the circle from the expanding storm..other players in the game are also doing the same and is trying to kill you..the last ones standing out of 100 players wins the game" Chris explained.
"What happens if the storm gets you?" I asked.
"You die" Chris said as he built something around him then drinking a blue substance afterwards. Then making a door after he finished drinking running out of the thing he built.
"Oh yeah it's literally impossible to survive if you can't build forts... I'll teach you more later if you want to pla-"
Before Chris can finish his sentence, his player died from a explosion. Chris let out a long frustrated sigh making me giggle.
"Damn these rocket launchers" Chris said sounding a bit upset.
"What's it called again?...rage quit?" I asked giggling.
"You shut up" Chris chuckled playfully tickling me.
"Hahaha okay I'm sorry" I said laughing giving into his punishment.
"You better be" Chris said rubbing my back receiving soft moans from me.
"Mmm that feels amazing" I said starting to relax myself in his comfort.
Mom and dad then walked over us making Chris stop messaging me. I was kinda upset when he stopped but he did it for the best of his life. They were both smiling as us so it couldn't be something bad.
"Chris I just wanted to thank you for all you have done for our pack and taking care of our daughter" Mom said with a small smirk.
"No problem all I ever want to do is help" Chris said smiling at them while rubbing my back again.
"You are truly special to our pack and we have been discussing a while about you being apart of the pack" Dad said smirking and I squealed in excitement.
"Say yes" I said excitedly tugging him slightly and he chuckled looking at me before back at my parents.
"Do I have a choice?" Chris asked and mom growled at him.
"What do you think?" Mom asked ready to attack him.
"Well yes it is happy to be apart of the pack" Chris said shaking my dad's paw relatively fast making him chuckle.
"Nice to have you" Dad said smiling.
"Yes you know what this means?" I asked smiling widely at Chris.
"What?" Chris asked.
"I get to hang out with my best friend everyday" I said happily nuzzling his arm and he seems surprised I called him that.
"Humphrey you're awake" Kate said happily in the back smothering him in a hug.
"K-Kate you're hurting me" Humphrey said managing to say it before she killed him for real this time.
"Oh sorry" Kate said losing her grip but still hugging him. When she pulled away he looked around for a second and seen me.
"Ahh a human" Humphrey said whimpered hiding behind Kate.
"Humphrey it's okay we won't hurt you besides he'll have to get through me first" Kate said proudly like she can beat Chris.
"She gets that from me" Mom whispered to Chris with a smile walking over to Kate and Humphrey.
"I think I'll just go it's getting late anyway" Chris said putting his phone in his pocket.
"Nooo don't go..you can't stay a little longer?" I plead sadly he's leaving me.
"No I can't I'm sorry but I'll be back first thing tomorrow" Chris said smiling at me and I couldn't help but smile back. Chris then looked and dad who nodded at him for approval to leave.
"You're dismissed we'll discuss more tomorrow" Dad said firmly.
"Dad can I walk him down the slope please?" I asked begging.
"Yes but that's it don't go any further" Dad said with a soft smile.
"Come on Chris" I said pulling on his sleeves.
"Okay I'm coming I'm coming" Chris chuckled as I literally dragged him out the den. When we walked far enough down the slope I sat on the edge with my head down.
"Hey Lilly what's wrong?" Chris said kneeling down to me bringing himself pain.
"It's just that..I wasn't ready to come back to my family yet I was having so much fun with you...please take me with you" I said looking up at him in his eyes.
"I'm sorry Lilly but I can't...I have to listen to your dad's orders...besides I have to bandage myself up and hop in a ice cold bathe and I don't want you to hear me scream like a bitch" Chris joked making me laugh.
"I would actually love to hear you scream haha" I said laughing along with him. It was a small silence and the moon was lighting up the starless sky.
"I'll tell you what if we have free time tomorrow maybe I'll ask if you can come spend a day with me how does that sound?" Chris asked and a my face lit up.
"I would absolutely love that" I said hugging him alluringly pulling away with our noses inches apart. I quickly broke our trance blushing heavily not realizing how close we were.
"Lilly" Dad called from the den catching our attention.
"...*sigh*...I have to go" I said honestly not wanting to leave him. Chris stopped kneeling and looked at the time on his phone.
"Yeah it's best that I go too...see ya later Lilly" Chris said smiling turning around walking away.
"Bye Chris" I said smiling to myself watching him leave until he was out of sight. Dad then walked out the den sitting next to me while I was in a daydream.
"Do you have feelings for him?" Dad said getting straight to the chase, and I thought about it for a second.
"What?..pssh no...umm...actually I-I don't know" I said having second thoughts of him now.
"When you find out you do...ask him to the moonlight howl...that's how I knew your mother was perfect for me" Dad said smiling widely.
"Really?" I asked looking up at my dad.
"Mhmm" Dad said nodding at me.
"But dad loving him is wrong...he's a human" I said in denial I have feelings for a human.
"If loving him is wrong you shouldn't want to be right" Dad said puzzling me.
"What?" I asked confused.
"I know you Lilly...you loved to explore and do different things...back when your eyes wasn't even open yet you ran away from your mother's feeding to explore the den" Dad said chuckling to himself.
"Sounds like I always had a nose for trouble" I said giggling a bit.
"I knew from that moment you were going to be much different from Kate...that you was the one to teach me a lot about parenthood..I heard what you said to your mother and sister and I've been waiting for you to say it" Dad said looking at me.
"What do you mean?...you purposely ignored me for Kate?" I asked.
"On a scale of good reasons...there's wolves who lack around and put up with their miserable lives and ones who actually wants to be someone...you think the alphas love their job?...the truth is they hate it but they don't have the guts to challenge it...you on the other paw is much wiser than they'll ever be" Dad said proudly.
"So what are you saying?" I asked not fully understanding his point.
"My point is go after what you love to do...you and Chris are both troublemakers strangely enough and he can achieve your dream of exploring the world...in all my existence I finally found someone who stood up for her rights as a omega..and that someone happens to be my daughter" Dad said smirking.
"So you giving me permission to stay with him?" I asked excitedly.
"Don't get too excited but your mother and Chris would have to agree too" Dad said and my excitement calmed down.
"Oh yeah that's right…" I said with my ears flat on my head.
"Tell your mother after you take him to the moonlight howl if your happy there's no way she would crush it" Dad said smiling at me.
"Thanks dad you're the best" I said placing him in a hug and he didn't hug back at first but soon accepted me. Maybe because this was my first time ever hugging him. When we broke our bond he gazed at me in my eyes and said.
"Okay let's get inside now the mosquitos sucking me dry" Dad said smacking his hind leg.
"Yeah me too" I said giggling leading the way back inside.
Chris P.O.V.
After a terrifying dark long walk I was now home twisting my door knob. Mosquitoes was on my ass the whole walk making the fact I'm already hurt worse. Google home turned on the lights automatically and I grabbed the remote turning on ESPN. Rosie was sleep on the couch whimpering in her sleep shaking slightly. Her favorite purple blanket was on the floor in front of her and gently I placed it back over her. Rosie stopped shivering and curled up in a small adorable ball. I'm guessing she isn't that hungry because she would be up barking on her hind legs begging. The television was loud and was stirring Rosie in her sleep so I politely turned the volume down. I smiled to myself then going into my room picking out my night clothes for a shower. But first I got my portable tub, dumping bucket loads of ice and water in it. This is the quickest way to heal my muscles and bruises after the impact I took today. I stripped to my boxers with a long sigh going feet first in the ice bath. Unlike most people I didn't cry like a bitch when I got in. Well, when my balls started to freeze up my eyes got watery but that's it. To pass away time I read from a hunting magazine with my iPhones earbuds in viding to J Cole KOD. Almost a hour went by and my balls were tensing up with ice. No hesitation I rose up out the tub putting my phone and magazine aside.
After I stretched a bit I was feeling amazing but my cuts where hurting like crazy. To avoid more work in the morning I disposed the ice water in the tub putting it away for another day. Honestly I should start working out again; somewhat I miss being a athlete or being in shape. I took my dressing clothes and took a quick stinging shower, afterwards putting neilsporn and appreciate bandages on my cuts. The worst part was saved for last which was stitching myself. Softly I paced over to my couch sitting next to Rosie with my first aid kit not to wake her up. Otherwise I'm all types and kinds of fucked if she does. Calmly I stitched the claw marks on my chest and bites on my forearm not feeling much anything. My body was still numb from that ice bath even though I took a hot shower. The part that was hurting on my body the most was my back but I couldn't reach to stitch that. Looks like that's a future infection calling my name. I wasn't quite sleepy yet and ESPN started to get boring. So I turned on my PS4 and played Fortnite for awhile up until I died several too many times.
"Oh my God Epic Games take this double pumping bullshit out the game...and how come when I shoot them in the head with a pump I do 9 damage" I said in pure frustration turning off my game tossing the controller aside.
The night was still young at 9:10 and I wasn't sleepy at all. I grabbed my sketchbook under the coffee table and started drawing randomly. Usually when I am drawing I don't draw anything in particular, it just comes to however I'm feeling at the moment. A hour and some change had past, and my eyes started to drop slowly announcing my slumber at last. All I could dream of is being with my parents again, the same dream hunts me since I was a kid. Them dying right in front of me and there was nothing I could do about it. It has always been hard growing up without my parents. Sure my adoptive parents weren't bad but knowing they're aren't my real family gives me distrust. Lilly flowed through my mind too at times. I've been wanting a pet wolf half my life and to be best friends with one right now is a dream come true. Not only I am a best friend of a wolf, I am apart of a whole pack. Now I am in the best position to study their instincts and way of survival. Which has so far been one hell of a adventure. But as for Lilly, the feelings I have when I am with her is unreal. Despite the fact I've never felt this way before about anyone in my life. Sometimes I wonder if she feels the same about me or just see me as a friend. Having feelings for a wolf can't be right, some law here has to be broken. There's no way she can be feeling how I feel about her...right?
