Hey guys! Cole again, obviously, and I'm bringing you another chapter for the story you guys love so much. I don't know why you love it, but you do I guess... I was going to wait for two more users to review, because I know they were going to, or at least I think they were going too... But, instead I'm updating now. It's not fair to you guys who do review my story to wait for them. I got up in the middle of the night for you guys, just to update the story. I couldn't sleep knowing I didn't update. That's how much I love my readers. :) This is the longest chapter yet, so I hope your happy... READ ON!
Chapter: 13
Tori's P.O.V.
I lead the way to Winston and Eve's den while Cole followed. I felt really... nervous when I was around Cole. Not just because he reminded me of the old Cole, but... He was just soooooo attractive. Everything about him was attractive. His fur, his scars, his voice, his smell, his everything! What made him go from cute to hot was his muscles. I never really looked at them before and now that I did... Wow... I was wondering about a few other things to, but I decided to forget about them. Sure he was nice and all, but... I wasn't ready for love again... At least, I didn't think I was... I took a quick glance back at him and he looked at me, so I quickly looked forward again hoping he didn't see me look at him.
"I saw that..." He said chuckling
I didn't say anything, but I felt really embarrassed. He walked up beside me and pushed me a little with his elbow.
"Hey, how come your acting so nervous around me? I won't bite... Unless you attack me." He said chuckling again.
I didn't know what to say.
"Well uh... I... It's just..." I kept stuttering like a complete fool until I finally quit on myself and blushed up a storm.
He chuckled, but it sounded more like a giggle, which made me smile a bit. Him giggling sounded funny...
"Relax Tori, if my appearance is giving you a hard time, just ignore it. Think of me as a normal wolf friend. That way, you won't feel so nervous around me."
I nodded, and I looked back at him, but turned back around again.
"That's impossible. Your way to big and muscular to just look at like a normal wolf..."
He chuckled again.
"Then just stare at me until you feel comfortable."
"Huh? That sounds weird though..." I said.
"But it works. Just stare at me for a minute straight and see if you feel any different." He said walking closer without me knowing.
I sighed, but decided to give it a try. I turned to look at him but ended up touching noses with him, AGAIN. We both gasped, but for some reason... We didn't move... Until about a minute later that is...
"Oh, I-I'm sorry... I didn't think I was that c-close to you..." I said covering my face.
"No, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have been so close... It was my fault..." He said trying to make me feel better.
I stared at him, and he stared back.
I decided to just go with what he said to do and stare at him for a minute until the nervous feeling disappeared. He was right, after the minute was up, I didn't feel as nervous anymore.
"Any better?" He asked me.
"Yes, actually... Who taught you that?"
"I figured it out myself actually. I used it on someone a long time ago... Every time I would see her, I would get butterflies in my stomach... I one day, I just stared at her, and I didn't feel nervous anymore."
I gave him a suspicious look.
"Her huh? So you were in love?" I said to him smiling.
"Well, yeah... I mean, she was the most beautiful wolf I had ever seen. Her voice, her fur, her eyes, everything. Then... One day, it was all gone..."
"What do you mean it was all gone? What happened?"
He looked away from me.
"N-Nothing... I'll tell you later. Right now, lets get me into the pack, ok?"
I nodded.
"Ok... Still, that nose thing wasn't your fault, I was to close." I said to him, trying to take the blame.
He smiled and fought back with me over who's fault it was until we got to Winston and Eve's den.
I peaked inside to see if anyone way there, and found both Winston and Eve laying down resting in the back of their den.
"Hello Tori." I heard Winston say to me.
"Hello Sir, Ma'am. May I have a word with you two?"
"Certainly, about what?" Winston asked.
I walked into their den and told Cole to stay outside.
"Well, you know how I told you about that wolf that saved me a few days ago?" I asked.
"Yes, we remember him. How is he?" He asked.
"He's doing fine, he's actually up and walking. He's with me now."
I gestured for him to come inside and he obeyed.
"Wow, your quite the wolf aren't you? Tall, muscular. It's like having another Garth around. You must be an Alpha." Winston said.
Cole sighed and smiled a little. "Actually, I'm an Omega. Surprising I know... I get that a lot."
The look on Winston and Eve's faces was almost priceless as I held back a laugh.
"An Omega? You must be lying. There's no way an Omega could be that big unless they trained like an Alpha."
"Or just really like having fun." I heard Cole add.
I giggled a little. I hated my giggle...
"Well, ok. We'll trust you. We would like to thank you for saving Tori here. She tells us if it wasn't for you, she might have died out there. My name's Winston by the way, and this is my mate Eve." Winston said getting a nod from Eve as a greeting.
"Cole, it's a pleasure to meet you. It was nothing. I was just doing what felt right."
They nodded.
"Well Cole, if you need anything, just ask us, and we'll see what we can do to help." Eve added.
Cole looked at me, then looked back at them. "Actually Sir, Ma'am. There is something you could do for me." He said.
They both looked at him.
"Well what is it?" Eve asked.
"Well, you see, I'm a lone wolf, and I don't have a place to stay, let alone a pack to stay with. So I was think that... maybe I could..."
They both smiled.
"If you asking if you can join our pack, then yes. We would be delighted to have you be part of our pack."
Cole's tail started wagging, and I giggled again. I needed to stop that...
"Really? I can stay?"
They chuckled a little.
"Yeah, he's an Omega alright... Of course you can stay. You did save Tori's life after all."
"Thank you Sir, Ma'am." Cole replied smiling wide.
"Don't mention it. Just find yourself a den, keep the peace in the pack, and have a little fun." Winston said.
"Yes Sir. Thank you both."
We left their den and once we got far enough away from them, Cole started to jump with joy.
"I'm finally home! I'm home! I'm home!"
I started laughing.
"Yeah, your home! Hahahahaha!"
He looked over at me and tackled me.
"Thank you, thank you, thank you! How could I ever repay you?!"
"Repay me? For what? I didn't do anything. I'm the one who should be thanking you. Your the one who saved me."
He hugged me tight.
"You saved me too. If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't be here right now. That river would have swept me away, and I would have died... Thank you..."
I was blushing hard. A wolf, a hot wolf at that, who was almost twice as big as I was, was on top of me, hugging me. I couldn't help myself, and had to hug back.
Eventually, he realized how big he was compared to me and got off of me rather quickly and helped me up.
"I-I'm sorry... I don't know what came over me... That's never happened before... Sorry..."
"It ok, your just happy that you have a home now. I don't blame you, it was kind of c-..." I stopped myself.
"What were you just about to say? Were you just about to say he was acting cute? You must be going insane. He's going to think your a complete weirdo if you say that." I thought to myself.
"It was kind of what?" He asked me.
"Oh uh... It was kind of... cool. I haven't seen a wolf your size be this excited in a long time." I said putting on a fake smile.
"Oh, ok." Cole said believing me.
I sighed in relief.
"Hey, want to help me look for a den?" He asked me.
"Oh, sure. I don't think there are many left though, and if there is, they're kind of small."
He nodded.
"Ok, well what am I going to do for a den then?" He asked.
I thought about it for a little while, and came up with a solution to his little problem.
"Well, there is this one den... Other wolves do live in it, but I don't think they'll mind if you stay with them. It was basically given to them."
"Ok, sure. I wouldn't want to live alone anyway. Lets go. If there isn't room, I'll just make one." He said.
"There should be room, don't worry." I said.
He followed me up to what used to be Cole's den. I don't think the old Cole would mind if someone else was living in his den. He would want them to be happy...
So, good, bad, wolfe? You tell me, I don't even know anymore... I'm guessing good, or decent. Review please? Please? Until next time my friends...
