Only New Life, Can Defeat Death

Another update, another wonderful time of reading, isn't it? Well, I would like to say that chapter 14 is the most detailed lemon I have ever written, and might be my last. You decide on whether I should do another, or not, but I have a plan on having another, so keep that in mind. Updates will take long due to homework, so don't hate me, hate society for making economy tough on those who want a good education. Also, if you haven't notice, but if Humphrey choses to hug Eve, her and Winston just mated and it takes a while to undo the tie between them, so you think on what would happen…?


Humphrey sat with his head low, thinking furiously on what to choose. He looked up and saw the three girls starring back at him, waiting for an answer by him.

"I'll… I'll…" Humphrey looked at Kate specifically, see her give him that heartwarming smile that made his insides melt. He got lost into her amber eyes, seeing the moon light laminate her body form, making his blood begin to heat up.

"Who do I have to do the 7 minutes in heaven with?" Humphrey asked, knowing they would say Kate, but asking to make sure.

"Wiiiiiith…" Reba started as he placed her paw under her chin, making a mischievous smile.

"With a rock." Reba giggled. Janice giggled too, along with Kate, making Humphrey shift around nervously on his paws.

"I chose to hug Eve instead." Humphrey finally chose, making Reba and Janice giggled behind their paws that they lifted to cover their face. Kate starred at Humphrey with a shocked expression, her ears drooping slightly, mouth slightly hanging open, and her eyes wide with worry. Humphrey couldn't see this due to that Reba and Janice were by his side and moving him up the slope to Eve's den. As they were walking, they stealth fully walked past Janice's parents den where they were sleeping.

Kate wasn't worried about it earlier because she thought he wouldn't do anything that had to deal with her mom. Kate followed then to the entrance of the den and saw Reba and Janice sitting outside, covering their giggling with their paws. Kate reached the den and saw Humphrey take a deep breath before he went in, but stopped him by tugging on his tail.

"Ow." Humphrey whispered as he stopped moving and walked back, seeing Kate with a worried look on her face.

"Ow, Kate that hurt. What's wrong?" Humphrey whispered as he looked at her with concern. The den was pitch-black and the pups couldn't see anything inside, but could hear the soft sound of Kate's parents breathing.

"Humphrey, you don't have to do it, I can talk with Reba and Janice to let us do the 7 minutes in heaven." Kate offered, worried for his safety.

"Forget it, he chose this and he's going to do this." Reba added, keeping quiet to make sure that Kate's parents didn't wake up.

"Kate, thank you for caring, but I need to face my fear. I'm scared of your mom, but if I can just hug her, then I won't be scared of her… I think." Humphrey reassured as he smiled warmly at her and turned to walk in the den. Kate watched as she saw Humphrey's tail disappear into the black void.


(Inside the Den)


Humphrey walked as quietly and smoothly as he can. His eyes hadn't adjusted to the complete darkness, but he could make out an odd blob of a dark figure moving about. He figured it was Kate's parents, seeing and hearing Eve yawn made Humphrey freeze and he dropped to the floor. When he heard the movement stop coming from Eve, he decided to crawl towards her. When he felt the soft patted breaths on his neck, he stopped, figuring he wasn't too far, making sure he wasn't hugging Eve with his lower region in her face.


(Outside the Den)


Kate, Reba, and Janice discuss that they should be in there, watching to make sure Humphrey gave Eve a hug.

"We should be in there, I'm going." Janice said as she got up and slowly walked inside with Kate following but she stopped before she entered.

"Hey, Reba, aren't you coming?" Kate asked.

"No, I'll stay outside and let you know if anyone tries to sneak up on you guys." Reba answered with a smile. Kate nodded and walked in, seeing Janice motion for her with her paw in the back of the den. When Kate was walking, she picked up an odd smell.

"Janice, you smell that?" Kate whispered as quietly as she can. Janice nodded and pointed at Humphrey. Kate looked where she was pointing and saw Humphrey slowly sidled to Eve's side. When Humphrey was close enough to Eve, he felt light headed from the scent that masked the den. Humphrey smelled it mainly from Eve, but figured it was just her fragrance. As Humphrey was as close as he can to Eve, he nervously lifted his arm and raised it over Eve's body. He could feel the heat illuminating from her body. When he reached out as far as he can, he gently lowered his arm, letting it rest gently on Eve's back. Eve's head was facing him while she laid on her stomach.

"Mmm…" Eve moaned as Humphrey let his arm rest completely on Eve. He couldn't hold his arm up anymore and with the weight of his arm on Eve, she shifted around and she placed a paw over Humphrey, drawing him closer to her. Humphrey slid across the ground, scared stiff on what was happening. Janice and Kate watched in horror, seeing their friend so close to being torn to shreds from a mother everyone is afraid of.

Kate was tempted to pull Humphrey out from her mom's grasp, but knew for a fact it would wake her mother, and would probably cost the life of the wolf she loved so much she would give herself up for him. Kate looked at Janice and saw she was holding her paws over her mouth to conceal her intense laughter. Kate starred angrily at her, but asked in a calm and quiet tone.

"What are we going to do?" Janice couldn't take it anymore and ran out the den, almost making Kate's parents wake up from her paws making so much noise when running out the den. Reba saw Janice run out of the den and down the slope, making think the obvious.

"Let's act like hockey sticks and get the 'puck' out of here!" Reba yelled as she ran down the slope and towards their temporally den for the night. The sudden outburst from Reba was loud enough to cause an avalanche, but in this case, Kate's parents to wake up, making them shoot from the ground. Eve and Winston shot up and Humphrey darted out the den, with his tail between his legs and Kate beside him.

"Eve, you see what happened?" Winston asked, nervous that they were caught by someone.

"No, but I thought you were sleeping next to me?" Eve asked. They were still in the 'tied' position and were facing opposite side of the den.

"Eve, were still stuck together, it wasn't me who you slept next to." Winston informed.

"Then who was it?" Eve asked, scared that they were being spied on.

"I don't know, but I don't feel safe with this going on. I'll make a speech about it in the morning and ask who did so. Okay?" Winston asked, trying to calm down his mate.

"Okay Winston, I trust you, and whoever it was ill beat the living crap out of them." Eve threatened. Winston chuckled and shook his head side to side.

"Yes dear. Come on, let's go to bed." Winston suggested as he slowly laid down, making sure not to tug. They both fell asleep, but still had one question about what recently happened right now.

"Who was it?"


(Sleepover)


The four pups ran to the den non-stop. When Janice was inside she couldn't help but laugh hysterically. Reba, Kate, and a scared Humphrey, were looking at her as if she was crazy. Reba starred and couldn't help but chuckle. As she chuckled, she began to laugh, and then laugh like Janice, having tears from the intense laughter stream down her eyes.

"Can you two stop already? Humphrey could have been killed." Kate asked, making the two Omegas calm down slightly.

"H-hey, it wa-wasn't my f-fault someone scr-screamed." Janice said in protest, laughing slightly. Everyone turned and looked at Reba, who instantly stopped laughing.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, don't go and start blaming me, you're the one who ran out of the den, so I thought we were caught." Reba said in her defense.

"That doesn't mean to start yelling!" Kate said, her tone rising with anger. Soon, the pups all began to look at one another, Kate looking at Reba only with anger in her eyes. Humphrey wasn't looking at no one but Kate slightly, seeing her fur somewhat calm down.

"I'm… I'm going to bed." Humphrey whispered just enough to let the girls know what he was doing. He stood up and walked out the den with his tail drooping so low it was dragging across the ground. Kate instantly shot her attention to him, seeing the last of his tail escape the den. She walked out the den just to see Humphrey walking towards the forest. Reba and Janice just watched as they saw their friends leave, not know what to do.

"Come on, we need to apologize." Janice said as she stood up and walked out the den, but couldn't see Kate or Humphrey anywhere.

"Where did they go?" Janice asked herself out loud.

"I don't know, I thought you knew?" Reba asked.

"Really?" Janice asked with her voice heavy with sarcasm. Janice shook her head slightly left and right, making Reba do the same and they walked back in the den.


(Somewhere In Forest)


Kate was following Humphrey into the forest, wondering why he was doing so when they were invited to a sleep over. When she saw him walk towards the creek they played at earlier, she saw him pay no attention to where he was walking and was now a few feet from falling in the creek.

"Humphrey?" Kate called out from behind a bush, making Humphrey freeze in his tracks and turn around.

"Oh, hey Kate." Humphrey responded from the edge of the creek. His vice was different, it had sadness in it.

"Is everything okay Humphrey?" Kate asked as she walked towards him. Humphrey sighed and turned around to lie on his stomach.

"Humphrey can you tell me what's wrong?" Kate asked as she walked beside him and lied down, bringing her body closer to his. His body tensed when he felt her soft golden fur, bringing him at ease.

"Well, a few things. But, I don't want to bore you with them." Humphrey answered as he rubbed his nose on his arm, getting some dirt build up, off. Kate leaned her head against his, making him blush madly. Kate rubbed her head against his, slowly going under his chin so she laid her head on his paws. Humphrey looked down and saw the moon in the background of Kate's heavenly golden eyes. Kate starred back at him, seeing his icy blue eyes and the reflection of her eyes in his. Humphrey smiled warmly and rubbed his cheek on hers, causing small purrs in Kate's throat to escape.

"Please?" Kate asked in a sweet tone, causing Humphrey to cease his nuzzling.

"Well, I don't have a place to stay. I don't want to be rude on Janice's parents and ask if I could stay for the night.' Humphrey explained. Kate giggled, getting Humphrey's attention and she licked his cheek.

"It's called a 'sleepover' for a reason, you sleep over." Kate giggled at Humphrey's mis-understanding of the word.

"Oh, well, don't I feel stupid." Humphrey said as he watched Kate get her head off his paws so they could return to the sleepover.

"Come on, we need to get back." Kate said as she brushed her tail under his chin and up to his nose. Kate walked slowly so he could catch up, but when Humphrey stood up and turned to follow Kate, he noticed that she was walking in a very slow, hip swaying way that caught his eye. He was caught in her trance and caused him to trip over his own paws, landing with a soft thump.

"Ow." Kate turned around and saw Humphrey's face directly in the ground and his front paws under his body, leaving his rear in the air.

"Wh-what happened?" Kate giggled as she walked up to him. Humphrey lifted his face from the ground and wiped the dirt off his face.

"I tripped." Humphrey said flatly and continued walking, hiding the real reason why. Kate nodded slowly and walked next to him.


(10 Minutes Later)


Kate and Humphrey were at Janice's temporally den for the night and walked in with smiles on their faces.

"Tell me you didn't." Reba said with a sour face.

"Did what?" Kate giggled as she lied down towards the entrance of the den, followed by Humphrey next to her.

"You did, didn't you?" Reba persisted, waking Janice from her nap.

"What's with the commotion?" Janice asked with a small groggy voice. Everyone turned to see her with a face full of grass and sap from a tree.

"What?" Janice asked as she stretched and sat down, looking at all her friends. Within seconds, the den was in a fit of laughter.

"Your face!" Kate laughed as she leaned against Humphrey for support from her sides hurting. Humphrey tried to hold him and Kate up, but his sides were hurting from the laughter and fell with Kate on top of him, their muzzles connecting in the progress. The den was silent in an instant, with Reba and Janice looking at Humphrey and Kate kiss before their eyes. Yes they seen this before, but what they didn't see before was a visitor that tagged along with Humphrey.

Kate lied on his stomach and felt a small poke on her stomach as well, but that small poke was growing. Kate then took note of Humphrey turning red as caribou blood and he pushed her off, running out the den and his tail between his legs in the process. The den of girls was silent, and Kate sat up from the recent incident. She didn't know what it was all about and was about to run after him, but that was when Reba pulled her aside and told her it was a 'guy' thing he had to take care of.

Kate waited patiently for Humphrey to return, but he never came, but she was determined to look after him, but she couldn't find enough strength to do so. He ended up finding herself counting the stars, and dozed off, finally falling asleep, with Humphrey on her mind.


(Morning)


The sun was rising ever so slowly, and the wolves of Jasper Park were still asleep. When the sun reached the top of the mountain, the warm rays of the sun hit the park with little force, but not enough to make the day hot. The temperature was slightly cool, but only in the shade, and when you were in the sun, it was relaxing to stay in. The light of the sun first reached Winston's den, warming it up and waking Winston from his slumber. He opened his eyes and blinked away the blurriness. He stood up and accidentally woke his wife, due to that the night was cool and after they were untied, he cuddled as close as he can next to Eve with her arms around him.

"Sorry honey didn't mean to wake you." Winston apologized as he kissed Eve on the cheek. She yawned and stretched her joints, getting rid of the stiffness.

"No need Winston, after what we did last night, I prefer it…" Eve said with a smile, but it quickly vanished.

"Address the pack; find out who was here last night she said with determination. Winston's smile went away quickly too but he was calmer that her and he kissed her.

"Don't worry I'll get… I mean we'll get to the bottom of this." Winston quickly changed as he saw Eve do a death glare at him. He walked out the den and sat perched up at the slope, viewing the pack. Right when he was about to howl, he saw a grey wolf pup walk from the tree line.

"Why's Humphrey out there instead of the sleepover?" Winston thought to himself. He shrugged the thought out of his head and howled, waking the pack from their slumber and walk lazily to his for a pack meeting. He waited for about 10 minutes before addressing, making sure that everyone attended.


(5 Minutes Earlier)


Kate heard a howl from her dad not too long ago, but didn't want to wake up, she was having a dream about Humphrey, but it was ruined when she heard the thunder of other wolves paws running past the entrance of the den. Kate woke up and stretched, getting rid of the stiffness and watched everyone quickly make way to the meeting. She turned around and saw Reba and Janice gone, so she figured they left earlier. She decided to go, but what was mainly on her mind was finding Humphrey.

When she walked up to the crowed of wolves, she saw her mom and dad at the top, waiting. Everyone waited for another 5 minutes before Kate's dad started to talk.

"Last night, everyone was tired from the hunt and from the day off I presumed?" Winston asked the crowed, receiving shouts and happy whistling going around. Some asking for more days like the recent one, some asking if the meeting now was about having another. Winston chuckled to himself and shook his head.

"This meeting does not consist of having another day off." Winston immediately received groans from some, but instantly stopped when they heard Eve growl.

"Thank you Eve; as I was saying, when we all went in for the night, my wife and I, uh… were sleeping." Winston lied, not wanting to tell the pack they mated.

"And when we were asleep, someone shouted and woke us. We couldn't find out who it was, but we know for a fact someone was in our den last night. All I ask of that person, or group that was there last night, is to come by my den and we will negotiate. Without further notice, that is all." Winston finished as Eve and him walked in the den and waited for the culprit, or culprits to come and confess.

The pack all was wondering who would do that, but if it wasn't them, they didn't really care so they left, wanting to get back to their lives. Reba and Janice left, scared on what might happen when they confess, but Kate stayed. She had to confess, but she was too busy thinking on finding Humphrey. As she turned to face the forest, she saw a glimpse of a grey wolf walk up the slope to her parents, instantly realizing it was Humphrey.

"Humphrey!" Kate called out, but not loud enough to get his attention. He continued up the slope, ready to confess of his wrong doing.


(Winston's den)


"Eve, calmed down, I bet that the first wolf to come in is the one who did it." Winston tried to calm down Eve, but was trying to make a starving wolf wait to eat when the food is right in front of them. She couldn't wait.

"Winston, we can't just wait, why would a wolf come in here?" Eve asked. She stood up and headed towards the entrance of the den, wanting to find the wolf. As Eve walked towards the entrance, she heard the sound of paws hitting the ground, coming closer. She froze and waited, her ears pointed forward. Winston saw this and turned to look beside Eve, seeing a shadow grow in from of the entrance before a paw came from the side.

Eve waited before both paws were in her sight and she lunged forward, tackling the wolf, but with too much force, causing both to slide and fall off the cliff. Winston watched as he saw Eve's body disappear from the ledge, making him shoot up and run out side. When he ran, all he heard was whimpering and wheezy breaths. He looked over the edge and saw Eve on her side and a grey wolf beside her, blood slowly pouring out from his/hers body.


Ohh, cliffhanger! Okay, some announcement's first. I'm coming back to the suspense and stuff like that, not much of the comedy anymore. I am also sorry for late update. I blame school, so much homework and stuff going on. Okay, no more announcements. Well, how'd you like? Who could the mysterious wolf be? Is Eve okay… wrong question, who really cares about Eve? Well, beside Winston, Kate, Lilly… that's it right? Well, just remember to Review and let me know what you think and stuff. Thanks and see ya next time I post.
