The blue moon Luna

The treehouse

I continued to follow Xavier through the forest, we didn’t say much after the incident at the lake. I felt bad for not listening but I was lost in my our thoughts and betrayal from my father. We had been walking in silence for a little while when Xavier suddenly stopped and said we here. I looked around and all I could see was trees and overgrown weeds on the forest floor, I looked at him with a suspicious look, my wolf was on alert, something felt odd, standing her in the middle of the forest with some boy I met 30minutes ago. Xavier looked at me with a smile and told me not to worry there is no harm and no one is going to suddenly jump out and hurt me as no one knows about this place. I relaxed a bit but then curiosity got the best of me an I asked him how comes no one knows about this place… is it because it’s just the middle of the forest? He laughed and replied “look at them leaves there you will see the treehouse” I squinted my eyes an looked were he was pointing, it took my a good couple if minutes before I could work out where the treehouse was, he did a damn well good at hiding this place. Once I found it I looked at him and he already must of knew what I was going to ask as he replied follow me and lead me to a tree which had little holes carefully cut out to help climb up, If you was just walking in the forest you would never of noticed them.

We climbed up into the treehouse, it wasn’t small nor was it overly large it was just snug and cosy. We sat down on some giant bean bags and Xavier told me how he built this by himself and it took him 6 months to build, that is dedication. He then also mentioned how he comes here to get away from pack life and all the responsibilities that come becoming Alpha. I could see in his eye the fear, dread, guilt and upset when he mentioned about becoming Alpha. I didn’t push the subject any further. However Xavier did ask why I was so distant around the lake, why I looked so upset leaving Alpha Mitchel office. I took a deep breathe an looked him in the eyes, I could see a small glint of pity? Worry? Hurt? I couldn’t work it fully out but there was something. Xavier brought me out of my thought by saying we could be best friends. I was shocked and taken back, then it fell into place was this Alpha Mitchel and my dad plan to try and force us to be mates, was Xavier in on this, is this what his eyes when looking at me. Did he know what was going on.

I shot up from the bean bag and rage is now filling my bones, Xavier jumped up in sheer fright asking what was wrong. I calmed my breathing with a pointing finger I told Xavier I will not be his mate chosen my our fathers, for a moment it seemed like he looked shocked. I turn around before he could reply and preceded to the door to leave this place and have a strong word with my father, after all my father knew what I wanted to do this is how he now treats me. As I got to the door Xavier shouted “STOP” I froze still, I could hear Xavier inhale deeply. I turned around to see Xavier with his head down, I didn’t move or say a word… then I heard faintly Xavier say “I am gay” i gasped I was shocked with what I’m hearing. A future Alpha is gay, this is unheard of, this does not happen. I was brought out of my thought to Xavier sitting back on the beanbag.

I went to go sit with him but then my dad mind linked me to return to the mansion, I told Xavier we had to go back, he got up an we slowly walked back to the pack house not saying a word to each other.
