Chapter 5

It has been a week since Akino talked to Winston, and Eve was still making her advances, and Akino being the good wolf he was, just went with whatever she said without question, and out of fear of what she would do if he was to defy her. Mating season is in a few days, and Winston and Akino were trying to do everything in their power to stop Eve from doing anything... intimate with Akino.

Right now, Akino and Winstotn were in Akino's den, thinking hard on what they were going to do. Akino was pacing back and forth, worried.

"Gah, this is insane! What are we supposed to do?" Akino panicked as he paced frantically back and forth.

"Akino, calm down, this could get wo-" Winston said, but was cut off by Akino. "Wait! Don't finish that sentence, I've been in more than one situation where someone says that and it actually does, haven't you?" Akino asked, Winston nodding as he remembered his vast expirence with the phrase. "Good point."

"So what now? Mating season is in 2 days, and when that time arrives, we'll be in for one hell of a time." Akino said, stopping his pacing. "I don't know, everything we thought of has a loophole that Eve could exploit." Winston replied, thinking back to every plan they thought of so far. Each and every one of them has something in it that is unavoidable.

"How about you take me, Bardock and Tarble off for some alpha training? We've gained our skills from survival, but not from real classes." Akino said, holding his breath for a response. "Wait, that might just work, but we'll need more than just you three." Winston said, making Akino think of someone else that could join them.

"What about Humphrey? Kate has been training the guy in alpha stuff, and he could be a good guy to have around." Akino said, but Winston's face dropped. "I don't Humphrey would miss mating season for the world."

"Oh, yeah. I wouldn't either, but there's 2 reasons. First is I'm not looking fo r anyone, and second is that Eve scares the hee-haw cowboy crap out of me." Akino said, making Winston chuckle.

"*sigh* I'm royally screwed." Akino said, walking out of his den. Winston just got up and headed to his own den. He really wanted to help the alpha, not only because his wife is coming onto him, but also because Akino's almost like a son to him. Akino would help out anyone anyway he can, followed him, Kate's and apparently Eve's orders, requests, and suggestions all without question. Overall, he was a really good wolf.

"There's a good boy." Winston said to himself as he entered his and Eve's den. He saw Eve, Kate, and Lily lying in the den, talking. Winston cleared his throat, making the other heads turn towards him.

"Hi did."

"Hey dad."

"Hello, honey."

"Hello Lily, Kate, Eve. Can we talk alone, Eve?" Winston asked, seriously. "Sure, honey." Eve said as Lily and Kate walked out of the den.

"What do you need to talk about, Winston honey?" Eve asked, looking at her husband, giving an innocent look. "Akino." Winston said, making her ears drop. "What about him?" Eve asked, feeling uneasy.

"I understand that you've been getting a little close to him lately, a little too close." Winston said, making Eve sweat in nervousness. After a moment, she sighed. "I'm sorry Winston, it's just that, everytime I'm around him, everytime I see him, my heart starts racing and I just can't take my eyes off of him. He's just so... so..." Eve began to trail off, but was bought back to reality by Winston.

"Eve, he's not even half your age, and you want to mate with him!" Winston yelled, making Eve feel even more ashamed. "I know, I'm so sorry Winston, I just can't help myself." Eve said, her voice cracking and tears forming in her eyes. Winston sighed and walked over to his mate. "Look, I'm sorry Eve, I didn't mean to raise my voice. If you want Akino so much... *quiet sigh* ... I'll talk him into letting you 'have' him." Winston said, making Eve grin ear to ear and her tail wag wildly. She then pounged onto the elderly alpha, embracing him tightly.

"Oh thank you Winston, thank you!" Eve cheered, getting off of him, allowing him to get back up. "Hold on Eve, now before you can have him, you need his permission first." Winston warned, making Eve's happy expression drop. "I'll go ask him, wait here." Winston said as he walked out of the den, looking for Akino.

He was walking around when he found Akino walking with Humphrey. The two turned their attention and saw Winston walking up to them. "Hey Winston, what's up?" Humphrey greeted.

"Nothing much, Humphrey. Akino, I gotta speak to you." Winston said as the 2 walked out of earshot. Once they were sure that they were out of earshot, Winston spoke. "Alright, I've spoken to Eve, and now, it's all up to you." Winston explained. Akino looked at him like he sprouted a second head. "WWWhat?" Akino asked, not believing what the older alpha said.

"I talked to Eve about her... attraction towards you, and she's waiting for your decision." Winston repeated. Akino groaned, letting it all sink in. After a moment, Akino spoke up.

"Alright, if it'll make her happy, I'll do it." Akino said, making Winston look at him like he was crazy.
