Lvan entered the room and watched as Tristan stroke the hair of a sleeping Alan. He felt helpless and sorry for not being there for his son at the time he needed him the most. He thought hard about what he should do to make Alan feel better. Of course, the next day.
He took a seat on the edge of the bed, looking at his family.
"I'll tell you everything" Tristan said, not looking at Lvan but at his son who needed him and his touch.
"The.........one of the betas of my former alpha, the witch and the traitor in the pack...."
"Baby,...." Lvan said in a concern tone, taking Tristan's free hand, caressing and squeezing now and then. "I told you, you can take all the time you need"
"I'm okay lvan. I'm really okay. I just......, I can't stand seeing my son get hurt. I wasn't brave enough then, I was scared. But, seeing my son get hurt....." Tristan finally looked up at Lvan, tears welling in his eyes, "I can't stand it"
"Baby....." Sniffing and wiping his eyes, Tristan said, "It was Mr Secks. He was the one who helped Fret"
Lvan angrily clenched a fist, "I'm not surprised"
"And the witch was four, one of Mr Secks backers" Four,..... the five companions who followed Mr Secks around and always side with him were given nicknames. Mr Secks was the boss, there was one, a beta man in his 70s, two who was also a beta.
In fact, they were all betas except Mr Secks who was an alpha, their leader, their alpha.
'Two' was a man in his 60s, three was in his 80s, four in his 50s, five in his 90s and lastly, the boss, Mr Secks was 100years.
The oldest of them all. The one, they believed was the wisest and more matured than anyone.
Pureblood Werewolves didn't age but for some reason, Mr Secks and his concubines has aged. The reason was unknown but I'm pretty sure sooner or later, it will come out. If it doesn't, then......it doesn't.
The names of the five companions or concubines (As the town people call them) of Mr Secks were gotten.
No one remembered their real names. If you ask anyone the name of one or two, they would answer as "One Or Two". Hell! Even I have forgotten their names!
Their nicknames had replaced their real names yet, they had no idea. Though they were nobles, their birth names were still forgotten and forsaken.
"Yes, Four is one of the few witches in this pack....." Lvan said, letting go of Tristan's hand. "He's the only witch Mr Secks acknowledges in this pack. I should have known he worked for that snaken old man. Damnnit!!" Lvan slapped his hand on the bed
Four was a pureblood werewolf but then, after his journey from the outside world, he suddenly returned, knowing how to use magic, spells and magic portions.
No one knew how he came about that and he wouldn't tell either.
"You need to do something Lvan, I don't want him hurting my son" lvan scooted forward and cupped Tristan's cheeks, slowly and gently stroking.
"Shhh, is okay, baby, I'll protect you. I'll do everything to lock him up so he won't hurt you or Alan again" Lvan pulled Tristan into his arms who hugged him tight, sobbing as he forced out the words, "I believe you"
***********πΊ********
Another beautiful and wonderful day blessed to them by the deities. Lvan gathered his family and friends into the study room as he shared what Tristan told him last night.
Everyone was present except Tristan, Alan, Sebastian, James, Debby, Sandy and Minna.
Everyone had these expressions playing on the faces, disappointment, disgust, betrayed and anger. Hearing what Lvan just said, it couldn't be helped.
"What?!" Marie exclaimed in disgust and her husband caressed her hand in comfort.
"That old man! I knew he couldn't be trusted!" Rex exclaimed angrily.
"And he still had the nerve to hurt Alan? He deserve what's coming at him" Colten said, earning nodes from Corey, Zane and Even. "So, what are we going to do next?" Chris asked.
"Where's Sebastian and Roy?" Lvan asked instead, looking around. He had noticed their absences since they started this meeting but didn't get the chance to ask about them.
"They went to get information out of the guard who was on duty before Tristan went missing" Jack answered.
"True enough, last night the poor guard was attacked, we were lucky that we reached there on time, or....." Corey said.
"We wouldn't have gotten anything out of him" Zane continued. "Where's Secks and Fourth?" Rex asked. Well, I don't have to explain that. By Fourth, Rex meant Four, Secks concubine or companion, whatever you want to call him. But I prefer concubine. Is entertaining and amusing, this is a BL novel after all.
"Mr Secks claim he had to leave town this morning. Said one of his relative was sick or something but I still refused to let him leave"
"That's good"
"Dude, I wouldn't have let him leave even if he said one of his concubines or mistresses was sick. The man have his damn family, friends, relatives, mistresses, concubines in this town for deities sake. He has no one out there" Even said, earning a laugh out of the people in the room.
"True!" Chris and Colten said together smiling as they looked at each other. Meeting eyes, the smile on Colten's face immediately disappeared with him also looking away. Chris once again felt distressed, devastated. He just wanted to clear all this mess up and have a man to man talk with Colten. They needed it, he needed it.
"Okay, that's good. Now, we just need to wait for Roy and Sebastian" Lvan stated. Right then, a knock sounded out. "Right about time" he said, looking at the door.
"Come in" Even said. The door opened with Sebastian leading and Roy following. Roy shut the door close after he entered as he was the last person.
They both slightly bowed before the alpha of the pack. "What did you find?" Lvan questioned. Roy and Sebastian shared a look before Roy answered, "It was Mr Secks" The anger, disappointment, betrayed and disgusted expressions played again. "I'm not surprised" Rex voiced out.
"It seemed on that day before Tristan was kidnapped, while he was on guard duty, Mr Secks, excused him, saying he would keep watch. It wasn't his duty and so he was distressed about it but then, Secks made it an order from an elder of the pack. He had no choice but to leave. Though he was suspicious of old man Secks, he left anyways because he had no power" Sebastian explained.
Lvan nodded, understanding. Now, they had all the proof they needed. Tristan's testimony, the guard's testimony, the attack on the guard last night. Old man Secks was dead and he had nowhere to escape.
"Why don't you guys go get our dear elder Secks? His honorable prison cell is ready right?" Lvan asked.
"Everything is ready, including the honorable toilet" Even said with a smirk. They all burst out laughing. "WTF! Did you have to add that?!!" Rex exclaimed, laughing.
*********πΊ*********
Alan was playing with his new dog in his room as they were seated on the bed with Tristan looking at him with so much concern. He has been trying to convince Alan into going outside to play but the kid wouldn't listen.
He had been trying all morning but the kid wouldn't even look at him, just playing with his new puppy. Tristan didn't know what to do anymore.
"What's going on?" Lvan said as he entered and found his wife looking so devastated. Wife? Did he just say wife? Well, Tristan would beat the hell out of him if he finds out but, we all know he wouldn't because he wasn't going to call him that out loud. No damn way.
He never really thought about it but he actually liked sleeping on the comfortable bed.
Lvan sat on the bed facing Tristan before taking his wife's hand. Wife, he said it again. But true. Tristan was now his everything. His wife, husband, lover, boyfriend, mate. Uh, okay, he could only be his lover and boyfriend if they hadn't mated yet. But now that they were mated, Tristan was his wife, husband and mate, okay he could also be his lover. That was okay right?
"He won't look at me lvan. He won't listen to me either. He's been playing with that stupid dog since he woke up and cleaned up" like the puppy understood human language. It barked at Tristan when he called it stupid.
Tristan glared at the dog, shutting the dog up intently. Lvan who witnessed this show couldn't help but smile.
Getting Tristan's attention, he cleared his throat and put on a concern look before turning his attention to Alan. "What's wrong son?"
It took a few seconds, Alan stopped playing with the dog and looked at them. Tristan gave him a smile. "Alan"
"I don't want to go out" Alan stated. "Why not?" Lvan asked. "I don't feel like it" Tristan smiled and took the puppy from Alan's arms by the tail. He handed it to Lvan before pulling Alan's into his arms.
Lvan was startled when a dog was suddenly threw into arms, he almost dropped it. Almost.
"Then you don't have to go. You can stay indoors all you want"
"Thank you Tris" Lvan smiled, happy to see that his mate and son made up.
Were they even fighting in the first place?
Sebastian, Even, Corey and Zane went to pick up old man Secks. Sebastian knocked on the door while Even stood behind him with Corey and Zane at the back, making sure the cunning old man doesn't escape. After three knocks, the door clicked opened with Secks holding the doorhandle. Like he knew something wasn't right, he didn't exactly open the door wide but wide enough to fit his thick useless head. "What.....what is it?" He asked. "Why don't you step out Mr Secks?" Sebastian asked. "You're under arrest" Even added. *************πΊ************ "Ah,........Alan?" Tristan nervously rubbed his hands together. He just came in to tell Alan that Andrews was here. How was he supposed to tell him that? Tell him Andrews wanted to see him? The kid was just so pissed off at him. Maybe he should explain it to him. Alan who was playing with that puppy that was gifted to him by Sebastian and the others noticed something was wrong with his Tris. "What's wrong Tris?" He as
Tristan opened the door, beaming. He was so happy. Why wouldn't he? His son just called him dad. Dad! That has never happen before. Okay, it might be because he had no child. Whatever! He was just happy. He couldn't wait to share this with Lvan. He looked beside the door where he was sure Andrews was. He was taken back when he found the kid asleep with tears streaming down his eyes. He probably cried himself to sleep. Poor kid, he didn't deserve this. Tristan thought and picked up Andrews. He was just about to take him back into the room so he could have a good rest. The child has been through so much. But then, Sandy appeared. "Oh, M-I mean, Tristan" Though Tristan permitted them to call him by his real name, they still had problems saying his real name sometimes. This was the alpha's mate for deities sake. They actually had problems saying it but I assure you Minna didn't. The girl calls everyone by their first names like they're bestfriends even sometimes, the alpha of the pa
Invited inside, Chris dropped Colten's cloths on the bed and begun folding them while Colten took a bath. A few minutes later, Colten came out, all cleaned. Chris had just finished folding his friend's cloths and decided to take a look at his friend. Wearing just a pair of shorts while drying his hair with a towel, played a slow motion in Chris's eyes as he was captured into a world of lust at that moment. But, what captured him even more was the dripping water from Colten's hair and on his smooth, sparkling fair looking chest. Fucking!! Colten wasn't big or large, he was tall, slim, slender, and he had no six packs. He didn't have muscles. Okay, you guys know these types of men. Those who can wear women's cloths and look exactly like a woman, face, body, he was that kind of a man. Colten can wear women's cloths and won't get caught because he had a soft, fair body, and no muscles. Okay he did have muscles but not that much to damage our eyes when he wears women's cloths. Anyways,
"No. I took them!, but when everything quieted down, I stopped taking them" poor Even explained. Jones sighed and shook his head. "I told you to keep taking them until I said you didn't need them. What's wrong now" "Jake" Even said in a low voice, "And who's Jake?" Dr Jones asked in a curious tone. "Jake is Tristan's friend. He's in a bad shit and needs help" "And?" "And every time I hear about him, my body reacts, my mind, my wolf, he wants me to find him. To claim him. He says Jake is my mate" Even said the last part in a low voice. "Do you think he's your mate?" Dr Jones asked, studying Even like a professional phycologists. Though he wasn't. "I....I don't know. We will only know if we find Jake" "You're right, we will only know if we find Jake, until then, please start taking the medicines again" Jones said, earning a slow nod from Even. So, this is what Even's illness is about. You know some werewolves don't always find their mates right? Some also get rejected while othe
Lvan sat leaning on the bedframe with Tristan in his arms still crying. He didn't know what to do or say to comfort his mate. But one thing was right, he was going to kill that fucker who called himself an alpha. How dare him sell his brother in-laws and lock up his other brother in law?! From what Tristan told him, Jake was like his brother. Brother from different mothers and fathers but born on the same day. And that made Jake his brother-in-law. "Is okay, baby, we'll find them. We will find Jake and get information about your brothers from them, so please don't cry" "I lost them Lvan. I lost them" "You didn't lose them, look at me" Lvan raised up Tristan's head to force him to look at him, "We will find them. Don't worry". With that said, Lvan wiped the tears with his hand. Tristan stared at Lvan as he cleaned his face. " Have I told you how much I love you?" Lvan's hand froze on Tristan's cheeks, for a second, before he slowly looked up at his mate with a shock look. "I kn
"Help!!" Chris yelled when they reached the mansion. Scenting the scent of blood and the yell, everyone awake came out except Tristan who left to take care of the kids in the house. Everyone was surprised when they came out and saw a bloody Chris with an unconscious and bloody Colten in his arms. "What happened?" Lvan asked? "We were attacked by Four, he tried to protect me and this happened. Please, someone call Jones" How Chris came to know it was Four even though he didn't see him, it was because he smelled his scent while he was running. The guy was so shocked, afraid and regretful that he forgot to force his attention on the magic he was using. He didn't smell his presence before, it might be because he used magic. He was a wizard after all. But now that he knew it was him, he will hunt that old man down if is the last thing he does. "James! Please call Jones! Tell him is an emergency" lvan shouted, "Yes alpha!!" "Take him to his room" Chris nodded and immediately took Colte
Tristan watched the two kids who has fallen asleep during their chat. What could two children and an adult possibly talk about? They were talking about milk. Can you believe it? Alan said he hated milk, didn't like the taste and Tristan and Andrews were busy doing a presentation about how good milk was, both for the body and mind. Even with it being two against one, Alan still didn't give up. They didn't win against him and that lead to more pursuing until the two kids fell asleep. The score was 10-10, that means, no one won. But Tristan wasn't giving up, they were going to continue this tomorrow morning and he wasn't going to lose. He clenched his fist with a 'I got this' look. One can say, Tristan was very passionate when it came to milk. He unclenched his fist and sighed, he wondered what was going on and why Lvan wasn't back yet. He missed him so much and wanted to see him. Wow! How crazy, he just saw him an hour ago. Okay, so an hour was far too long. When was he coming back
"What do you mean? Aren't you a doctor?! Do something!!" Chris furiously said. "I'm a human doctor, not a werewolf doctor and definitely not a dragon doctor. I know nothing about dragons!" Dr Jones said with a frown. He understood what Chris was going through but that didn't give him the right to talk that way with him. "What should we do then? do we have to go get a dragon doctor?" Jack asked. "I don't know exactly when he will wake up. The wound was deep and it seems the healing process is working slowly. He will only wake up when he is fully healed" Jones explained before looking Chris' way, "Was he sick or something? Because I don't understand why his healing process would suddenly work slowly. And I don't think is because he has live for a long time" They all looked at Chris, waiting for an answer to Jones question. "I....I don't know. We.....we haven't been like we used to be for sometime now" "I see. Then I'll leave you. I have to prepare some healing medicines for him so it
