Chapter 103



Christian was confused when Caleb suddenly linked him out of the blue and asked him to save him from an unbearable situation. He imagined somebody was trying to harass him or something, although thinking about it now he realises how unlikely that is. On getting his scent, he thought maybe Caleb couldn’t tolerate him because he is a pureblooded Alpha, but having spent a bit time with him he could tell why Caleb was so eager to get rid of him. He gave off really creepy vibes.

“That is about it, rest are from our pack” Christian declared after introducing him to the local Alphas. “Help yourself to anything you want” Christian pointed at the buffet, “and if you need me, I will be up there”. he showed him stage, mainly indicating the backstage.

“Wait a minute” Cyrus mumbled a moment before Christian was about to leave. “Who is that guy? He seems a bit familiar”. Cyrus asked pointed towards a brown haired man.

“Oh, I think he is an actor or something, Sebastian Kyles” Christian shrugged, surprised by Cyrus’ sudden curiosity. Sebastian was standing right next to the buffet having an oyster while he laughed around with few of the women from Cresentile Pack. They were mostly omegas and a few betas, and all of them seemed very interested in him. It was as if a small fan-meeting was going on.

“Oh, I remember him. Wasn’t he blonde”? Cyrus scoffed. Christian frowned, intrigued by his familiarity with Sebastian.

“How do you know him”? Christian couldn’t help but ask.

.....

“Once he was in England for a photoshoot or something. I met him there, being the Alpha and all” Cyrus smirked. “I think I am gonna go and greet him. Thanks for showing me around”. He said and left. His gratitude felt early forced to Christian as he noticed him approaching Sebastian. For some reason he assumed Sebastian would respond to Cyrus with the same arrogance he showed him, but somehow he was surprised when they hugged. It was even odd given how a powerful Alpha like Cyrus barely ever hugged anyone.

[Get along with the announcements. I think it’s time] his father who suddenly linked him, ordered. Shaking his head, he went on the stage and began to give his speech.

He gave them various updates of the pack, including the recent changes in the training programmes. It wasn’t hard to decipher that most of the foreign audience was not pleased with the fact that they were training the omegas as well. While most of them belonged to elite packs, their mindsets were still quite traditional when it came to believing that omegas were too weak to learn fighting. In fact, the only reason the audience wasn’t outraged must be because of the explanation of recent omega abduction scenario.

“I also have one personal thing to share.” He announced after he was done briefing about the new pack modifications. “As you know, I have a younger brother, Caleb. Recently he has found his mate, and we are happy to welcome him into our family. His name is Ashton Parker, and I would like for him to come to the stage”.

Ashton did not feel like going to the stage, but since it was important for Caleb he fought his instinct to run away and with a blank face walked off to the stage. All the gawking eyes were starting to make him uncomfortable. He didn’t mind the attention as much as he minded the fact that these were all foreign wolves. He was a bit relieved when Caleb joined him a little later on the stage.

“As you can see, they are still quite young, so the union ceremony won’t be taking place anytime soon. However, I hope you get along with him” Christian finished and looked at the duo, offering them a chance to speak anything if they want to. Both of them shook their heads so they concluded, “That will be all for the announcements. Now we have prepared some special performances, and they will be showcased one by one”.

All of them emptied the stage and soon a music started to play. It revealed George, playing a song, along with a few of his clubmates who happened to be wolves. It made Ashton wonder why he wasn’t asked to be a part of this given his excellent performance at the prom, but then realised that it was for the best that he wasn’t. Few of the foreign wolves were already starting to question him about this and that and it was starting to annoy him.

They asked him all these questions about where he was from, which pack did he belong to. They were even skeptical of his blood status until he released his scent irritating the hell out of the guests. Caleb, who noticed how uncomfortable Ashton was, came to his rescue and took him away from the crowd. “I am so sorry, I didn’t realize how annoying they would get,” He whispered softly.

“Meh, I have dealt with such shit before” Ashton shrugged. “I don’t think I want to stay here anymore”. Ashton mumbled after a minute.

“You know what? Get going then”. Caleb suggested. “I doubt this will be fun for you anyways”. Caleb patted his back before disappearing into the crowd.

Ashton left the building and went back to his room and focused on distracting himself. Now that he was at the pack house, he had less stuff to do. The maids mostly took care of the cleaning and laundry, while the house had enough servants for them to come to his aid that he was hardly left with anything to do on his own.

All he could do was homework, thanks to helping Caleb he didn’t get to it yet. Finishing it within an hour he found himself getting distracted by the thoughts about banquet. Not only did he worry what was happening, he was also worried about Cyrus approaching his mate which enraged him to his core. Was he affected by him so much because they shared the same blood rank? He wondered.

Not able to take it anymore, he decided to run back to the Banquet. The moment he was about to step out of the room he noticed Caleb standing there, with one hand up as if he was about to knock. “Why are you here”? Ashton asked him skeptically.

“Well, I was trying to arrange a fun weekend for everyone the whole time. It’s not fair you don’t get to enjoy it, especially after all your work, so I decided to come spend some time with you”. Caleb shrugged.

“Because that’s fun”? Ashton raised his eyebrows suspiciously.

“Well, that’s all I got. Besides I am missing the banquet I worked so hard to put together, at least you can pretend to be grateful” Caleb pouted.

“You can go back,” Ashton coughed, pretending as if he wasn’t delighted to have Caleb here with him.

“Nah, I am good” Caleb shrugged unbothered. “I noticed how you left without eating anything, so I brought these for you” he held out a bag for him on his left hand. Entering into the room, while pushing Ashton away from his way, he set up the food he brought for him. Ashton simply admired his mate worrying for him despite the huge responsibility he was bestowed upon with. An involuntary smile crept up his face, something he didn’t even realize until Caleb asked, “Why are you smiling like that”?

Since there was no one around Ashton went ahead and hugged him from the back and put his chin on Caleb’s shoulder. Caleb froze, wide eyed with the sudden wave of affection Ashton was displaying him and tried very hard not to blush at all. “What are you doing”? He mumbled. At this moment his racing heart was louder than his voice.

“Hugging my mate” Ashton mumbled, closing his eyes as he hugged Caleb tighter. Caleb gulped not sure how to respond to Ashton, and a bit flattered by Ashton “You got a problem? Deal with it”. Ashton huffed before he nestled his face in his neck.

“Let go of me, the food will go bad. Hurry up and eat it.” Caleb struggled a lot before finally managing to release himself from Ashton’s hold. Caleb turned around and glared at Ashton.

“Which one, the one on the table, or the one in front of me”? Ashton smirked.

“What”? Caleb gulped. His heart was definitely not ready for such jokes, especially after being disappointed so many times “Hey, this is not funny! You said you will come tonight, save all of this for then”. He pushed away Ashton who kept coming close to him.

“Well, I only said that because I thought you won’t be available before that. But now that you’re here...” Ashton approached him with a smirk developing on his face, dangerously slow while his voice lowered to a much deeper tone, “... And standing in front of me, why wait”?
