YM778.TV Chapter 63
He looked around the house for a bit before he ordered his friends to go and search for them. He went outside of the house to check if anyone was there only to find Ashton blocking some punches. He had no idea of the situation but somehow he had a tiny smile on his lips seeing as to how Ashton was present here.
After a moment when he noticed Ashton struggling to get out of the chokehold, he decided to step up. Linking his friends he asked them to come down there immediately as he took down one of the three guys. When everyone was there Ashton tried to leave but Caleb needed a better idea of the situation so he followed him. A few blocks ahead when he managed to catch him, he and, “Can you tell me what happened”?
Ashton explained whatever he saw, but there was no way he could tell which girl it was. Ashton tried to describe her as, “Short, brown haired girl” but that wasn’t really much helpful.
“Go back for now. If I call you, respond”. Caleb gave him a slight nod before he left.
Coming back to the scene Caleb along with his friends took the drunk wolves to the pack house. They were from one of the neighboring packs thus their local leader was informed of their behavior. Upon asked, Caleb told his brother that the Alpha assaulted an omega, but since he didn’t see it with his own eyes, along with the denial from the accused alphas, it was harder to prove they were guilty.
If Ashton could justify, then the situation could have been resolved, however doing that would mean revealing his identity first. Thinking hard, he realized that if somehow he managed to get hold of that omega girl, maybe then they could deliver the appropriate punishment.
.....
Caleb went to the office and sent Ashton all the photographs of the registered omegas from their system. Hoping it would be one of them he asked Ashton to identify the omega whom he saved. The lack of immediate reply from Ashton made him further anxious, but he was glad when Ashton replied him after an hour later with one of the pics tagged with the message, {This one}
Her name was Annalise Rowley and she was a junior at their high school. Checking her address he went straight to their house and waited at the door. An old woman, probably her grandmother opened the door for him.
“Can I speak to Annalise Rowley”? He asked her politely, but due to her impaired hearing she failed to understand anything he said. By her lack of smell he could tell she was a human, but how is that possible? He wondered.
Lucky for him, Annalise walked down the stairs right at that moment but froze the moment she saw Caleb. For Caleb she was a stranger, but for her Caleb was the son of the Alpha, and that scared him. Perceived as an Alpha it was evident why she would be scared of Caleb, especially when she was not yet over her heat.
“Can I speak with you”? Caleb asked, but Annalise took a few steps back clearly demonstrating her fear with respect to him. Sensing her reluctance he tried to shout from the stairs, “I just want to know if a few wolves attacked you last night or not”! “Someone attacked you”? Her grandmother (?) who heard Caleb thanks to his shouting asked Annalise.
Her eyes widened before she glared at Caleb for a split second before telling her grandmother, “No no, I am sure he has mistaken me for someone else. I was home all day remember “? She tried to lie to her grandmother. Caleb bit his lip as he realized how he ruined the situation.
Gathering all her courage she came forward and helped her grandmother to step aside from the door. “Please don’t create problems for us. Nothing happened to me, so just leave” she said and slammed the door on his face. Taken aback by her hostility he huffed in frustration knowing well enough how they would get by so easily.
He met his brother at the gate, who was waiting for him to bring ‘evidence’. “So? Anything helpful”? Caleb looked down before he shook his head. “I’m sorry ” he mumbled. He explained to his brother how things went down.
“Well, at least you tried”. His brother patted his head, which Caleb removed immediately. “What’s the point of all these rules, all these punishments when we can’t even apply them”. He mumbled.
“If life were that easy, we won’t need these rules in the first place,” Christian shrugged. “Come, their pack leader is here. Let’s see what we can do”.
Their local leader defended them, as expected, on the basis that they ‘lacked evidence’. When Caleb showed his brother the interaction between him and Ashton, he asked him why didn’t he mention him before. Caleb informed him that it was a human so they can’t actually bring him here. Christian, believing his brother presented the same exchange to the leader, who had the audacity to call it fake on the basis of the human must be ‘confused’.
Caleb was this close to punch that useless leader directly on the face when his brother grabbed his fist and held him back. “Even if the boy was confused, it doesn’t change the fact that they picked a fight with him” Christian retorted. “The pack laws clearly states that a wolf will not indulge in any violence against a human”.
The pack leader was taken aback for a moment before retaliating it with, “They were drunk, they weren’t in their best shape. On the basis of that shouldn’t they get less punishment”?
“They should, but then again, they are guilty for underaged drinking” Christian smirked. “Coupled that with assault on a human, that is a much bigger punishment”.
The leader opened his mouth to defend him, but unfortunately he found himself out of words. Christian ordered them to take those three into the cells, where they were to stay till the punishment was over.
