My Atypical Wolf (BL)

Chapter 33: New Wolf

“Wait, what do you mean”? Christian asked.

“These marks are gone now, so it’s hard to tell who made them, but I am certain it’s a part of black magic”.? Both the brother’s eyes widened at that.

“Wait, are you telling me that the witches are back in the town”? Christian questioned. “I thought they were banned after the Massacre of 1995”.

“They are, which means whoever is doing this, solo or group, is here illegally”. He sighed. “It also makes it harder for us to spot them given how they smell exactly like humans, which is basically nothing”. Mr. Wrisberg fumed with anger.

“We have no clue on whom it could be”? Caleb sighed.

“We might…” Christian whispered in a deep thought, “We went back to the scene, I smelt the same scent we smelled when James died”. He nudged his head towards Caleb. Caleb’s eyes widened as he realized how Ashton was in trouble once more.

“That pureblooded Alpha”? Mr. Wrisberg asked, to which Christian nodded. “Don’t you think so, you were there. Matt told me that’s what attracted you guys in the first place” his brother bombarded him.

Caleb looked at his brother then shifted his gaze to father before nodding slightly. If he denied after all the evidence Christian just pointed out, even he would be deemed as suspicious. He couldn’t believe that Ashton, who was off their suspect list for a while now was back on it.

“I knew it! A pureblooded alpha attacking the other wolves makes so much sense” Mr. Wrisberg scoffed.

.....

“Why though”? Caleb asked as he failed to see any motive from Ashton for doing this. As far as he could tell he was least interested in doing anything that was related to being a wolf. He knew that the purebloods were dangerous for their immense powers and the difficulty it takes to defeat them. But why a hidden attack like this would be beneficial to them.

“Are you kidding? They have the power so they want to rule everyone. Everyone knows that”. His father reprimanded him.

“Just to show off their power? Not every pureblooded Alpha is power thirsty, Dad. There are exceptions. Not everyone has to follow the personality defined by their roles in our hierarchy”. He defended Ashton. For some reason it made him even more furious. Of course he hated that Ashton was being judged too quickly, but on the subtext he hated how prejudiced they all were.

“Caleb, don’t take it so personally! I know you hate prejudices, but not everyone is an exception like you”! He spat at his son before he looked around to check if anyone heard what he said.

Caleb tightened his fists as he fought the urge to say something back. He knew arguing with his Dad was pointless. He had been arguing with his Dad for years and never once did he manage to convince him otherwise. His father was the most stubborn person he ever met.

Luckily before Caleb burst any vein from all the anger piling up, the doctor called them catching their attention, “The wolf is awake. He is still weak, so it’s hard for him to transform back to his human form” the doctor informed him.

“Any idea how long will it take him”? Mr. Wrisberg asked him.

“Unfortunately no, our recovery rate varies from wolf to wolf. We just have to wait and watch to see how long he takes to recover”. Doctor explained with an apologetic expression.

“Isn’t there any ways to speed up the process”? It was Caleb who asked the doctor.

“Unfortunately no.” The doctor maintained his previous expression, “I mean…” he paused for a moment, “... evidence does suggest that having a mate nearby, a fated one to be precise, does speed up the process. But we know how rare those are. Even if this man has a mate, the chances of it being a fated match is almost negligible”.

“I see”. Caleb whispered.

“We will wait it out” Mr. Wrisberg announced to the doctor before the doctor left.

They had to stay for almost five hours there. It was already late in the noon so few of the maids brought lunches for them. Meanwhile Mr. David Holman was adamant on getting a discharge, but due to high level of suspicion he was held back under the pretense of being medically unfit.

The wolf who finally transformed into a blonde man who appeared to be around his mid twenties sat in his bed patiently while he recovered. Even in hospital gown with such a tired face, he looked very attractive. Before entering, Mr Wrisberg decided that it would be polite to knock.

“I hope you are doing okay… I am the Alpha here”. He introduced himself.

That man bowed lightly before he went ahead with his own introduction, “I am Sebastian Kyles”. He said in a deep voice.

“That seems familiar” Christian murmured. Even though his father and brother heard him they didn’t pay any heed to him.

“What were you doing here? Are you aware you are not allowed to visit here unless you take permission”? Mr. Wrisberg asked him sternly.

“I am aware, but I thought family was an exception”. He shrugged.

“Family”? Mr Wrisberg asked.

“Remember Cory Stetson, who died a while ago”? He raised his eyebrows, “I am his nephew. He doesn’t have any other family.. so his lawyer tracked me down and wanted to meet with me...here”. He explained himself.

“I see”. Mr. Wrisberg. “Can you elaborate what happened to you? My son found you unconscious in the woods, but I want to know the specifics”. He gestured towards Caleb suggesting his involvement.

“Well” he began to think harder. “I was staying at the Hotel Javan that is right outside the town. My lawyer asked me he would like to meet me in the cafe that was nearby. I was headed there when I saw someone trying attack me”. He explained himself.

“Saw”? Christian scrunched his eyebrows.

“Yes, as in that attacker was attacking me from behind while I was tying my shoelace. Due to rain, I guess, there was a puddle, so I saw his reflection and avoided getting the fatal hit on the right time”. He explained further.

“Was there any wolf nearby”? He asked him skeptically.

“Wolf”? He scrunched his eyebrows before he thought hard, “I do remember that there was a howling that distracted that man”. He whispered.

“Wait, so he helped you”? Caleb spoke up hoping that the answer would clear the false suspicion.

“I guess so”. He shrugged.

“Well, you were injured” Mr. Wrisberg commented. “By the way, who is this lawyer you went to meet”? He asked skeptically.

“Someone named Kevin Marlow”. He informed while the others nodded. “Anyways, we must leave now. Few of my wolves will be guarding you. The situation have been a bit tough around here, so don’t go anywhere without protection” Mr. Wrisberg asked him.

“But, I have to return”. Sebastian insisted.

“Then my wolves will escort you. You should get some rest”. He nodded and left while his son’s followed the same suit.

The moment they were out Caleb announced, “I have to go back”. Christian looked at him as he understood what he meant, “I’ll come with you” he offered.
