Chapter 4
As Akino and Eve were walking through the territory, some of the wolves cast glances at him.
He picked up things like 'Is he suicidal?', 'What did he do?', 'I wish him the best of luck.', 'He's a dead man.'. Akino just tried to ignore them and stayed alongside Eve.
Once they were out of earshot of the pack, Eve spoke up.
"So Akino, how do you like Jasper so far?" Eve asked, looking to him. Akino was fearful of why he was here, so he had to make hid best impression, that he knows.
"I like a lot around here, I haven't felt this much at home since I was just a pup." Akino said as Eve smiled. Eve gave another smile that was warm and inviting. One would usually imagine a demonic or wicked smile once they knew about Eve, but it was a real, genuine smile.
That made Akino visibly loosen up. This might not be as hopeless as I thought, but I gotta stay on alert, and hightail it if need be.' Akino thought as he put on a smile half real, and half out of fear. He was snapped out of his thoughts when Eve spoke up again.
"So Akino, what do you normally do around Jasper?" Eve asked, giving him her full attention. "If I'm not on alpha duties, I'd usually walk around the pack, exercise, or hang out with the others." Akino explained. Eve nodded in acknowledgement and they kept walking.
Throughout their walk, Eve would ask a question, and Akino would answer it, but whenever Akino asked a question, Eve would just change the subject and ask another question. This put Akino on higher alert. 'What is she doing? Could she be trying to get info on me? I really gotta talk to Winston after this.' Akino pondered at the thought, but put it to the back of his head for now.
They had made it back to the territory as Eve turned to face Akino. "I've had a nice time, I hope to spend some more 'quality' time with you." Eve said, putting emphasis on that word, but Akino didn't realize. "Alright, I look forward to it, see you later, Eve." Akino said as they went their seperate directions. 'Alright, now to look for Winston, maybe he can make sense of this situation.' Akino thought as Tarble walked up to him.
"Hey Akino, what did Eve want?" the small wolf asked as they walked around the territory. "She just wanted to walk with me, nothing big, like taking me somewhere far off so nobody will hear me scream or anything. Anyway, I'm of to go look for Winston, I gotta talk to him, I'll see you later." Akino said as he walked off, leaving Tarble to walk around himself.
Akino was walking around when he found Bardock moving around a log with Winston. "Hey, Winston, sir." Akino called out as he ran up to him.
"Akino, what's the matter?" Winston asked. "I gotta talk to you, alone." Akino said as Winston nodded and waved Bardock off, signalling him that his work here was done. Bardock nodded and walked off, leaving the 2 alone. "What is it you need to talk about?" Winston asked, knowing that it's something serious.
"It's Eve." Akino said, making Winston's ears droop. "What about Eve?" the older alpha asked, narrowing his eyes. "I... think she's coming on to me." Akino explained, feeling extremely nervous. He expected some kind of harsh and unusual punishment, but all he got was, "How do you know?"
"Well, after lunch today, Eve grabbed my tail. I turned around to ask what did she need, and she just wanted to go for a walk, so I just thought 'Alright'. Throughout the walk, the conversation was pretty much Q&A. She would ask the questions, and I'd answer, but whenever I'd ask a question, she'd change the subject and ask another question. So me, being the person I am, came to you as soon as the walk was over, being that this is your mate we're talking about." Akino explained, Winston nodding in acknowledgement.
"Well I don't know what to say. If what you're saying is true, Eve might be coming onto you. My advice is to lay low." Winston replied. "But what if she calls for me? She's still the head alpha female, and orders are orders." Akino asked, trying to get everything layed out. "If she does, just go with it, I'll deal with her, and with mating season around the corner, this'll be tricky." Winston said, both of them pondering on what to do. "How about you just say I have alpha business somewhere far off during mating season?" Akino suggested as Winston shook hie head no. "Knowing Eve, she'll get suspicious and ask around. If she finds out that it's to get away from her, she'll be out looking for you, and trust me, neither of us wants that." Winston replied, making Akino regret even suggesting that.
"Let's talk later, talk to me if something goes down." Winston said as Akino nodded and they headed back to the territory.
Akino headed to his den to think of how he was going to deal with the upcoming events while Winston works on his own problems. 'This is insane! Eve is coming onto me and to top it off, mating season is just around the corner! I can't just leave, or Eve'll...' Akino couldn't even finish that thought. 'C'mon Akino, you're a strategist supreme and a master tactician, you can get past this... after your virginity is lost.' Akino just sighed and continued thinking.
