Alpha and Omega: After Realization
Chapter 1: Where's the Fun?
Jasper National Park was in complete view as the sun hovered over the snowless mountains, but the mountains would soon have snow because Spring was already coming to an end in almost two weeks before the Winter was supposed to start. Down in the valley it was all quiet except that there were two lone Caribou that were eating grass. As the two Caribou continued to eat away at the grass, they weren't aware that they were being watched from the grass close by behind them. There were about six pairs of eyes focusing on them and as it turned out, there were six wolves lying in wait for the perfect moment to strike at their prey.
The wolves slowly made their way towards the two Caribou as they continued to eat the grass. In an instant, a wolf leaped out from its hiding spot and pounced on one of the Caribou. As the wolf landed on the back of the large animal, the Caribou screeched out in pain as the wolf's claws penetrated the skin on its back. The wolf did not hesitate or wait as it went for the neck of the animal with its sharp teeth, tearing the flesh away with ease. Two other wolves joined in as they jumped from out of the grass and also leaped onto the back of the Caribou that the other wolf was already on. While they tore away at the flesh of their prey, the other Caribou that had also been eating had already taken off running from the scene, but not before the other remaining wolves noticed it retreating.
"Go after it!"
From the grass, the other three wolves ran after the escaping Caribou. Leading at the front as they chased was Kate and running beside her was Garth. Kate was advancing more and more as she increased her running speed and once she saw that she was close enough to her prey from behind, she pushed herself into the air with her hind legs. She extended her front arms out and revealed her claws as she was able to grab on to the animals backside.
"That's the way to go Kate" exclaimed Garth.
Kate fought to hang onto the Caribou as it continued to run even after she had stuck her claws into its flesh. Garth and the other wolf continued in their chase after their prey. Garth looked around as he sprinted and saw a large tree branch sticking out from the valleys rock wall. He changed his direction and ran as fast as possible towards the branch, after which he pushed himself forward with his legs and grabbed onto the branch with his teeth. He then moved his body upward and was successfully able to execute the same spinning technique that Kate used in all of her hunts. He spun around in the air and hurled forward to find himself directly over Kate and the Caribou.
His spin was strong enough that he was able to land just a few feet ahead of them and as he made his landing, he immediately turned around and pounced towards the large animal. Garth bit into the Caribous' neck and the pain from the bite caused the animal to stop in its tracks as it struggled to get the two wolves off. The other wolf finally caught up and helped out by aiming for the animals' legs as he proceeded to claw away at the hooves. Kate was stilling holding on to the animals' backside, but since it stopped running thanks to Garth, she removed her claws from its' flesh and jumped forwards towards the head. She saw that Garth was locked into his bite as the Caribou continued to shake and buck, but she took the moment to bite the back of the neck and while doing so she also clawed at it.
She must get that from her mom's side of the family thought Garth as Kate violently tore away at their prey's neck.
The fighting and struggling lasted for what seemed like forever, but it didn't take long for the Caribou to finally fall to the ground all lifeless, due to all the blood it had lost from the bites and claw cuts. Garth and Kate let go of their hold on the Caribou and were satisfied that it was finally killed. Following behind them were the other three wolves that had stayed behind killing the other Caribou, which they were now hauling together.
"Okay let's get these two back to the feeding grounds" ordered Garth as the four wolves he and Kate had lead dragged the dead Caribou back towards the feeding grounds of the Western pack.
"What about your pack Garth?" asked Kate.
"Don't worry; we caught our share of Caribou a few days ago, so it's fine"
As the four other wolves continued on with dragging their catch of the day, Kate and Garth walked behind them engaged in a conversation.
"So, how's everything going with Lilly?" asked Kate.
"Oh it's going great, she always has a way of keeping me active, just having normal fun" said Garth in a cheerful mood.
"That's my sister for you; she almost has more energy than I do"
"I just wish I had more time out from doing all our alpha duties so that I could spend at least a few days with her"
Garth's voice changed from joyful to depress and Kate knew what he meant. It was hard for an alpha to have a day or days off from their tasks since there was so much to get done.
"I feel you, I can't even be alone with Humphrey for even a minute without being called away to do something" replied Kate.
Kate was in the same position as Garth, her new alpha duties have prevented her from spending some alone time with Humphrey. They were finally married and yet they haven't had the time to be with each other. In light of the conversation, Garth started to form a grin across his face and decided to take the moment, so he nudged Kate on the shoulder as they kept walking.
"Soooo, have you and Humphrey…you know?"
"GARTH?"
Kate's face turned a bright red, she couldn't believe that Garth would ask something like that, but she decided to repay him. Garth just gave a small chuckled when Kate spoke back to him.
"Well, have you and Lilly gotten to that level yet?"
Kate's question also surprised Garth, who tried to find the right words to say in response. Kate was waiting for his response as he gave a small cough before speaking.
"I'm not going to say that we haven't gotten "to that level" yet, I just don't want her to think that I'm pushing or forcing her towards it, I want her to have some space" replied Garth.
Kate felt glad about what Garth had said. At least Lilly had someone who would give her all the time she wants to think about taking their relationship to the next level thought Kate.
"By the way, what does Humphrey do while you're out on duty?" asked Garth, out of curiosity.
"Well you do know he's still an omega, so what do you think he does all day?"
It was meanwhile, in the forest up on the mountain side, an amazing event was taking place that was well known for almost every omega wolf in the pack. Though the forest remained silent with no movement or sound at all, it didn't take long for a loud boom to be heard coming down the slope of the forest. A large tree log that was cut in half was sliding down the slope and sitting on the inside of the log was none other than the fun loving omega, Humphrey.
"WhooooHooooooo!"
Humphrey was maneuvering his log sled through the crowded and hazardous forest. He was enjoying himself as he kept riding down the forest, when he came upon another set of boulders. He remembered how difficult it was to get by these rocks, but he didn't show fear in seeing them this time.
"Not this time" exclaimed Humphrey.
He gripped on tight to the sled with his paws and crouched forward to increase his speed. He veered to the left as he came upon the first boulder, but the second he did he made a quick right turn and was able to avoid the other boulder that was waiting for him. He kept repeating this same pattern as he dodged boulder after boulder going down the slope.
He soon came upon a boulder with a flat surface extending outwards and he saw his opportunity to shoot himself into the air. He again crouched forward in his log sled and went full speed at the boulder, finally sliding on top of it and he was blasted right into the air. He got up on all fours and balanced himself as he swooped through the air in excitement.
"Alright!"
Humphrey felt like a champion and he just enjoying himself as he finally felt the log going back down towards the ground. He leaned on his stomach and his body jumped a little from the impact once the sled touched ground.
"Man I'm good" said Humphrey smiling and laughing.
"Oh is that so?" said a voice.
Humphrey turned to look to his left and saw another log sled sliding right beside his. He saw that there was no one in it to be controlling it, but he tried to lean his head closer just to make sure. He suddenly fell back towards his own sled when a wolf popped up from the log and surprised him.
"Gotcha"
Humphrey lifted himself up and saw who scared him and he was not as surprised to find that it just happened to be Lilly.
"That was very funny" said Humphrey sarcastically.
"It's not my fault I'm awesome at this game" exclaimed Lilly.
"Oh is that so?"
"Yeah, just try to keep up"
Lilly sped ahead of Humphrey as he got reorganized and increased his speed again to try to catch up with Lilly as she began to almost disappear from his view. He was getting nervous that he wouldn't be able to reach her, but he would not give up on himself. He laid down on the log with all of his front body and his speed started to pick up more and more with each passing second, hoping it would be enough to reach Lilly.
Lilly was well ahead in the race, but she turned around to see what had happened to Humphrey and received a real shock when she saw that Humphrey was only a few feet behind her now.
"How'd he catch up so fast?"
Humphrey was now racing alongside Lilly from the right and he had a grin on his face.
"Who's awesome at this again?" asked Humphrey.
Lilly only giggled at what she was told and then as Humphrey was enjoying his moment of victory, he looked forward and his eyes told Lilly that he was now worried.
"What's wrong?" asked Lilly.
"I forgot, that none of us ever figured out how to do the-"
He got cut off and pointed out to Lilly what was ahead of them. Lilly's eyes widen when she noticed a very large boulder coming up.
"BRAKES!" both exclaimed.
Both of their sleds impacted the log and broke apart, while Lilly and Humphrey were sent flying into the air from the hit. Humphrey went crashing to the ground and gave several whimpers from the pain.
"Awww"
Humphrey was not in any serious pain and slowly lifted himself up, but then he heard a distant voice. He looked up and was unable to react to the second impact that he received as Lilly came in flying and fell on top of him. Humphrey was now in more pain that he couldn't say a word to express it. He gave a heavy whimper but did not scream out loud.
"Owww… sorry about that Humphrey" apologized Lilly for falling on him.
"That's okay Lilly" managed Humphrey from the crushing pain from being under Lilly.
Lilly slowly got up and off of Humphrey to let him feel relief from the pain. Humphrey stretched out his legs to get rid of the pain from his limbs and muscles, grunting as he did so.
"You okay?"
"Don't worry Lilly; I've been through much worse to say that this hurts"
When Humphrey was finally finished stretching out his pain, he and Lilly started to walk through the forest making their way back to the feeding grounds.
"So, how are things with you and Garth?" asked Humphrey.
"I guess everything is going okay" replied Lilly.
"Just okay?"
Lilly looked a bit gloomy, she wasn't her usual energetic mood when she thought about her relationship status.
"It's just that...Garth and I don't have time to be together anymore. We used to just be with each other every day for a short time and then, we just couldn't find the time afterwards"
Humphrey could tell by Lilly's tone that she wasn't happy about being separated from Garth, he could even tell from her one eye that was visible because her fur was covering the other. He felt the same way as her; he was also upset over the fact that he and Kate couldn't have a day off to themselves since there was so much work and responsibilities that had to be done by the alphas.
"I guess it's not easy being together when you're an omega and the other is an alpha" said Humphrey.
Humphrey looked back at Lilly and was taken back when he noticed tears coming down her eyes as she had her head facing down as they continued to walk. Humphrey walked closer to Lilly and lifted her head up with his muzzle.
"Hey don't cry, it's not your fault, there's just a difference in how things work when someone is an omega. I bet Garth is thinking the same thing right now and misses being with you too" said Humphrey comforting Lilly.
Lilly looked at Humphrey and gave a weak but happy smile, telling Humphrey that she was no longer sad or lonely. Lilly then noticed an expression of confusion on Humphrey's face.
"What's wrong Humphrey?" asked Lilly.
"Something's…not right with you" Humphrey told Lilly.
Lilly was now confused herself and didn't understand what Humphrey meant when he said something was not right with her.
"What do you mean by that?" Lilly asked.
They both stopped walking and Humphrey put his paw to his muzzle as he pondered for a moment. Lilly still couldn't understand what he meant and only stood staring at him as he continued to think.
"Oh wait, now I know what it is" finally said Humphrey.
Lilly was still in a state of confusion as Humphrey finally said something. Humphrey took his muzzle and inched closer to Lilly's face, which put her all panicked and nervous. She stood still with eyes going wide from the moment and before she knew it, Humphrey's muzzle touched the lower part of her right eye gently and lifted her fur away, revealing her other lavender eye.
"There we go"
Lilly calmed down from her nervous state and just stared at Humphrey, only now she could see him with both of her eyes. Humphrey gave a smile and stared at her for a moment.
"So it is true"
"What's true?" asked Lilly nervously, wondering what Humphrey was trying to say.
"That you have very beautiful eyes" replied Humphrey as he gave her a warm smile and continued to walk forward.
Lilly stood where she was for a minute as Humphrey went on walking and her face turned a slight shade of red upon hearing what she was told. Did Kate tell him about that? thought Lilly trying to figure out how he found out. She put the thought out her mind and only focused on Humphrey, thinking of a way to thank him for the compliment, but she could find a way to express her thanks to him. She just shook her head and her blush disappeared as she went on walking to catch up with Humphrey until she was walking closely beside him, which he didn't seem to mind.
Humphrey turned his head to look at Lilly as they made their way back to the feed grounds, but he noticed that her shoulder was slightly leaning on his shoulder and her eyes were closed, and he also saw her smiling. He couldn't help but smile as well, but then he felt a weird feeling that he felt coming from behind him. He thought that it was probably a flea or something biting him, but began to feel a more brushing kind of feeling coming from his tail. He slowly turned his head to look behind him to see what was bothering his tail, but he didn't expect what he saw. Lilly's tail was actually swaying over and under Humphrey's tail very slowly.
Humphrey couldn't find a way to respond to what Lilly was doing as her tail continued to brush his tail, but he turned his attention back to getting to the feeding grounds. Although he didn't say anything for a few minutes as they walked along, he gave a small cough.
"Lilly" said Humphrey in his cough.
Lilly heard Humphrey say her name and she knew that he must have realized her tail brushing his. She looked at Humphrey but his gaze was now concentrated on the path they were walking and she decided to lower her tail to stop her little tail action. Lilly was embarrassed and felt regretful of what she was doing and dropped her head down as they went on walking, but that didn't last long when she felt Humphrey's muzzle under hers and lifted her head back up.
"We don't want to hide those beautiful eyes again do we?"
That's all Humphrey said with a smile as Lilly smiled and they continued on when they finally were in sight of the feeding grounds. There was already a crowd of wolves gathering as they all noticed that Kate, Garth, and the other four hunting wolves were returning to the territory with the two large Caribou carcasses. Winston and Eve came walking out of their den and came down the slope to welcome their daughter and son-in-law.
"Welcome back you two" said Winston as he walked over to Kate and gave her hug.
"It's nice to see you again Garth" said Eve as she advanced towards him and surprisingly, also gave him a warm hug.
"Nice to see you again ma'am"
Although Garth accepted the hug from the alpha pack leader's wife, he made sure to not over do anything since he still remembered how violent Eve could get. Garth slowly responded to the hug and hugged her back, but then Eve raised her head to his head and whispered in his ear.
"Just watch yourself Garth" whispered Eve.
Garth stayed frozen for a moment while he was being hugged by Eve. Even after she had let go from the hug, he only smiled weakly at her, knowing that she was still watching him. Winston then walked over to Garth and gave him a hug as well, and Garth's worries over Eve disappeared with the presence of the pack leader.
"So, how did it all go?" asked Winston.
"Everything went smoothly Winston sir, but just to be honest, the hunt wouldn't have ended well if it wasn't for Kate's hunting skills"
"Oh stop it, I'm not taking all the credit for the hunt" replied Kate overhearing Garth's statement.
Garth only chuckled as Kate walked over and softly punched him on the shoulder, making Winston give a little laugh as well.
"Well, I think you both did your part in the hunt since you were able to bring back two again" said Winston.
"I'm also giving the credit to our team of four for doing a great job, they're the ones who helped bring down on of them in no time flat" stated Garth as he called over the four wolves with his paw gesture.
The four wolves came up to Winston and sat in a line in front of their pack leader.
"Well then, you four and our two alpha leaders will be the first ones to eat their fill"
"Thank you sir" responded the four wolves as they thanked Winston for the reward being given.
All the wolves in the crowd howled and cheered in joy as they congratulated the hunting team on another successful hunt and keeping the whole pack nourished. As the cheering went on a few minutes, Lilly and Humphrey were entering the feeding grounds and saw that everyone was cheering.
"Guess Kate and Garth are back from the hunt" said Humphrey.
They were both excited by the thought and started to sprint into the territory. Lilly made her way through the crowd of wolves and rushed to the front to reach Garth, while Humphrey did the same and made his way forward to find Kate. Lilly didn't stop running when she finally made it through the crowd and as soon as she caught Garth in her sight, she put all her energy into her running and leaped onto Garth, knocking back and onto the ground. This didn't apply to Humphrey now that he had also made it to the front, but he stopped to look at Kate and Kate immediately noticed him. Without uttering a word, Kate got overexcited and now it was her running towards Humphrey. Humphrey didn't know how to respond to her running to him, but he decided to just let have her way as she jumped and landed on top of him, dropping him to the ground.
"I take it I was missed?" said Humphrey.
"You have no idea" replied Kate who proceeded to rub her nose to Humphrey's.
Lilly and Garth were now also engaged in their own nose rubbing, but while Garth had his eyes closed to enjoy the moment, Lilly's eyes were somewhere else. She couldn't keep her eyes off the sight of Kate and Humphrey together close by. As for Eve she was beginning to become impatient, but she simply smiled and contained her anger.
"Well…if you two are done rubbing noses with my daughters, maybe we can get on with our food" said Eve softly.
Although her tone sounded soft, both Humphrey and Garth knew that Eve must be upset and angry over watching them being all affectionate with her daughters. Lilly and Kate also knew that their mother must be angered, so they ended their loving moment and got off their mates.
"Okay then, all alphas will take their piece first and then the omegas" spoke Winston as all the alphas from the pack stepped forward to begin their feeding first, leaving the omegas to wait for a while.
After a while once the alphas had taken their share of Caribou, the omegas were allowed to step in to grab their bite to eat. Kate hadn't eaten as much since she was trying to leave some meat for Humphrey when the omegas were up to eat. She was licking away at the dry blood on her paws and savoring the flavor of the delicious meat as she walked away. She walked by Humphrey as he headed over to start eating when she stopped him by placing her paw on his chest.
"I'll be waiting back at the den" Kate told Humphrey as she licked his muzzle and walked away.
Humphrey couldn't respond to Kate as his gaze followed her as she walked away and kept watching her body as her hips moved from side to side. Humphrey stayed hypnotized as he stared at his mate, but was snapped out of it by Lilly as she came up to eat too.
"Are you going to stand there or what?" asked Lilly who stared at him as he stayed in his love trance.
Humphrey remained frozen in his spot for a few more seconds before he finally turned around and followed Lilly to begin their eating session. Before Lilly started eating, Garth walked up to her and gave her a tight hug, and then he released his embrace.
"Take care Lilly and I'll see what I can do tomorrow" said Garth as he smiled at Lilly and her at him as he walked away.
Humphrey had noticed that though Garth was a strong alpha, his posture as he walked away didn't quite fit him very well. Humphrey reached the Caribou and as he was about to take a bite, he kept his eyes on Lilly would only stood up watching Garth as he walked out of view and back to the Eastern territory. Humphrey already knew why Garth was in such a bad state and even understood why Lilly would be affected by it. Before he ate he decided to walk over back to Lilly and tried to comfort her by gently placing his paw on her shoulder.
"It must be hard for him, but it's the only way things can stay together for all of us" said Humphrey.
"I know…ever since Tony passed away he's just hasn't been the same" replied Lilly.
Both of them knew the pain Garth was going through on the inside, he was still depressed over his father's death after he suffered through a lot of pain from the disk in his back. Tony always endured the cracking of the disk in his back and always managed to snap it back into place, but his old age had taken a toll on him and it only increased the pain. As for Humphrey he didn't want to bring up the past again for Lilly and changed the subject back to eating the Caribou before it was all gone due to the other omegas now taking their share of it.
"Come on, let's go get some Caribou. I'll share my piece with you if there isn't enough to go around"
Lilly put all her thoughts behind her and joined Humphrey as they hurried to get their meal as the rest of the pack tore away at the flesh of the dead mammal. Sure enough, Humphrey managed to get at least a fair piece of Caribou meat from the hungry crowd and walked away with it while Lilly had attempted to get her own food, but the crowd was now becoming difficult of maneuver through.
"Hey! Come over here Lilly" called Humphrey from a distance.
Lilly now took notice of Humphrey and saw the chunk of meat he had taken away from the ever bustling crowd as they squirmed to get their meal. Lilly walked over to Humphrey as he sat in front of the pile of delicious meat and Lilly was starting to slowly drool at the sight of it.
"Go ahead, lady's first"
"Are you sure?" asked a shy Lilly.
"I told you if there wasn't enough to get our own piece I would share mine with you" responded Humphrey.
He only extended his arm and gestured to the meat in front of him and waiting for Lilly to comply. Lilly only nodded her head in response and tore off a piece of meat with her fangs. As she chewed away at the juicy meat in her mouth, she noticed that Humphrey lay down and rested his head while she ate away.
He's so patient and…kind thought Lilly.
Sometime passed as Lilly enjoyed her meal and finished off a piece of meat as she then went on to lick away at her blood stained paws and savoring the flavor. She had forgotten that Humphrey had let her take her fill and quickly focused on Humphrey, who she now saw was actually snoring very quietly. She felt guilty that she had taken her time to finish eating, but she got lost in the taste of the scrumptious Caribou. She walked over to Humphrey and tapped him on his shoulder in order to wake him up.
"Humphrey…Humphrey, wake up" whispered Lilly.
Humphrey opened his slowly and yawned as he then stretched out from his sleep.
"Did you finish?" asked Humphrey.
"I'm so sorry Humphrey…I didn't mean to…I'm just very sorry"
Lilly couldn't find a way to apologize to Humphrey for making him fall asleep while she was eating, but Humphrey got up and began to eat the remaining piece of meat that was left over. He licked his muzzle as blood stained his whole mouth and fur, then he stood up and smiled at Lilly.
"As long as you got to eat, that's all that really matters" said Humphrey.
Lilly was suddenly stunned by Humphrey's response; she just couldn't believe that he wasn't upset or even the slightest bit angry towards her for eating almost all of the meat that he had taken his time to get for them. Even after Humphrey's kind response, Lilly still couldn't help feeling sorry and her face blushed from the situation, and Humphrey was able to notice that she was blushing.
"Hey, hey don't feel bad, I know it's been long times since any of us have eaten so don't feel bad about it. If you were that hungry, then it was fair of me to let you eat until you were satisfied" told Humphrey as he stepped closer to Lilly.
"Besides, you would have probably torn me to pieces if I had tried to get close afterwards" humored Humphrey.
"What's that supposed to mean" asked Lilly, her eyebrow now showing curiosity and now some suspicion as to what he meant.
"Well you know…females do tend to get…violent when it comes to their food"
"Is that so? Would you like to find out?" said Lilly, her eyes focusing on Humphrey, who started to back away slowly.
Humphrey backed away very slowly and continued to have a small chuckle as he did so. Before he could anything, Lilly leaped forward and landed on top of him in a pounce. Humphrey laughed and then tried to escape from Lilly's hold, but he noticed how she was able to keep him down despite his strongest effort to get free. She lower her head to his and out of the impending fear of what could happen, Humphrey only shut his eyes. He kept his eyes closed and waited for any hurt that was about to inflict on him and in that same train of thought, he felt her teeth gripping at one of his ears and his eyes tightened even more to prepare for the pain.
He waited for a moment as he kept his eyes closed and thought of what was about to happen, but he didn't feel any pain at all. A bite would have sent him into a series of either small or loud yelps, but he didn't even utter a sound. Not knowing what was going on or what happened, he slightly opened his eyes to see what occurred, but his only response was his eyes going wide. Lilly was still on top of him and was now nibbling on his ear very gently. Humphrey remained silent as he continued to watch Lilly nibble at his ear and her eyes unaware of his staring at her, which kept her from stopping. Humphrey slowly began to feel relaxed and his right leg was now thumbing in enjoyment as his eyes started to get drowsy, so he closed them again and enjoyed the feeling. Lilly went on nibbling on his ear and although she was only nibbling, she let her tongue lick Humphrey's ear both on the inside and outside. Humphrey only enjoyed it even more as she switched between nibbling and licking.
"Oh…ohhh…ohhhh" whispered Humphrey very quietly so as to not alert Lilly.
All of this went on for about two to three minutes as Lilly stayed standing on top of Humphrey as she nibbled and licked away at his ear and Humphrey, caught in the enjoying moment, did not even attempt to tell her to stop. Lilly finally came out of her little trance like state and stopped nibbling Humphrey's ear, but as she did so her eyes immediately went wide and she was now in shock. She jumped off of Humphrey just as fast as she had jumped on him and turned around only to start walking away embarrassed. Humphrey also snapped back into focus and got up off the ground and hurried to catch up to Lilly when he noticed her walking away.
"Hey Lilly, wait" said Humphrey.
He finally caught up to Lilly but she kept her head down and didn't look at him when he was standing next to her. Humphrey looked worried and lowered his head to try to see Lilly's face, which to him was now in a full flush of red and her eyes in tears.
"I'm…I'm…I'm so sorry for that Humphrey" responded Lilly.
Humphrey didn't know how to respond to both Lilly and what had already happened in their situation a moment ago. Humphrey didn't want to be rude towards her in saying anything that would make her feel worse, so he simply put his arm around her shoulders for comfort. Lilly felt his arm around her and lifted her head up, but still didn't look at him.
"I don't know…what came over…me; I just felt a…sudden urge"
"Well…let's just forget about it, let's just…pretend that it never happened" said Humphrey.
Lilly kept her gaze away from Humphrey and even though he tried to comfort her, she slowly stepped away from his soft hold and walked away. Humphrey was now the one looking down at the ground and felt bad both for himself and Lilly, not forgetting that he could have also have prevented the whole thing. As Lilly walked off to her parent's den, she stopped and turned around to face Humphrey while keeping her head down, trying to keep her face from making contact with his.
"It's not like we can work out what happened that one time anyway" said Lilly as she continued to walk away.
There was a moment of silence before Lilly stopped and talked back to Humphrey.
"I better go and wash off all of this blood"
Lilly headed down to the lake nearby to wash up before going back to the den. Humphrey heard what she had said, but her words didn't have an effect on him as his head remained facing down and in despair. He kept his head down a moment longer before he decided to get over what had happened and because he had noticed that everything had gone dead silent. He slowly turned to walk back to his and Kate's den when he was stopped by a voice.
"And what was that all about huh?"
Humphrey didn't jump at hearing the voice; he already knew what was going on, at least in his own way. He didn't respond and just stayed silent.
"Do you regret in having to be part of all that…or did you enjoy it" spoke the voice, which was female.
Humphrey heard what he was asked. The voice sounded respectful, non-threatening, kind, and to him, it sounded pure.
"Do we always have to go through these questions?" replied Humphrey.
"If these kinds of incidents keep happening, then yes we do" said the female voice.
"I just need time alone"
"Just like all those other times" responded the female voice.
Humphrey kept silent when the female voice told him that. He continued to walk away and tried to ignore what was happening to him, he felt like every step he took did not get him anywhere and he stayed in a continuous loop.
"It must have been nice wasn't it…having someone…just seeing it made me smile. Don't tell me you didn't honestly enjoy that day when…"
Humphrey cut off the female voice's speech and responded harshly.
"That had nothing to do with anything; it was just a moment of weakness for both of us!"
"We both know that it wasn't about weakness, it was more like a showing of strength. Passion is a strength that is so strong that nothing else can win against it".
Humphrey was becoming irritated but he couldn't do anything about it and he now felt the space and air around him feel heavy on him, forcing him to lie down. He felt a force weighing down on his whole body but it didn't cause him any pain, instead it slowly relaxed him. His eyes carried only hurt and sadness as he lay down on the ground. He felt a touch on his back and then noticed how it felt as it traveled down his back and ended at his tail.
"How about a little therapy before you go huh?" asked the female voice.
Humphrey turned his head and looked upward to his left side. He didn't speak a word as he felt a smooth sensation as his back received another patting, then the patting went on to travel lower down his body to his tail and then it stopped there. The patting then moved downward from his tail and he felt the sensation under his body. The feeling was expanding to his whole body and he even began to twitch from it, until his movement was joined by the thumbing of his left foot. His eyes remained closed as this sensation made him give in and moan out in pleasure. His head collapsed on the ground, but hadn't passed out as he gave out heavy breaths.
"I think that's all I'll be able to do for you Humphrey, just don't hold back what you feel is the most important thing in your heart"
Those were the last words as the female voice disappeared and the silence that had been present vanished. Humphrey regained himself and stood up without even uttering a word about what had just happened, but he felt a bit healed. He only looked around for a moment and just went on his way back to the den, his mind cleared and his negative emotions completely erased.
The sun was now preparing to set over the mountains of Jasper Park and the sky turned a pink and orange shade as it descended. The blue sky was soon consumed with the dark of night as the moon, in its crescent stage, lit up the night sky over the valley. At the edge of the mountain top, breathing heavily and panting from exhaustion, a black and grey wolf was gazing over the whole valley of Jasper with much relief.
