The Alpha Assassin

chapter three.

She was kinda scared he might disappear again so he clung to him like he was his life line.

"I missed you so much" Clara said with tears pouring down her cheeks.

"I miss you more than you could possibly imagine" Gabe said to her.

After disengaging from the hug which lasted for 5 whole minutes she hits him hard on the chest

"Ouch, Clara what was that for?"

"Tell me, where did you go to that you couldn't bring me along? You should have brought me with you"

"Come on Clara, if I could I would have okay. It was torture where I went to. It was two years of aggressive training, I couldn't leave even if I wanted to but I had to leave against their will to come see my dearest friend" Gabe said grinning

"Hmm where is that? It must have been too hectic for you right? Cause your biceps are all strong now. They are well built look at these huge muscles." Clara said while touching all his hands.

This move made Gabe laugh out loud, cause seeing her acting like a kid was an adorable sight.

She was still admiring him when Olivia barged into her room to inform her that she was needed downstairs to wash some dishes. When she saw Gabe in her room.

"Uncle Gabe? What are you doing here so late at night and in her room?"

"Haha Olivia come in will you? Don't rat me out to aunt okay?"

"Hmm for me to shut up you know what to do" Olivia said while straightening her hands forward for some bribe or something. Luckily for Gabe and Clara

Gabe handed some dollars and a chocolate cake to her and her eyes lit up and she said.

"Nice thank you, I will stop mom from yelling at you tonight Clara and as for the dishes I will take care of them. Thank you uncle Gabe for the chocolate cake" she said happily and ran downstairs.

"Ha...ha.. ha adorable" Gabe laughed out loud to see that Olivia is all grown up now as well and like all other teenage girls her age she is quite demanding and resourceful.

" Hey you, where is my own box of cake? Don't tell me after years of not seeing each other, you appeared before me empty handed"

Clara said feeling jealous that her annoying little sister gets cake instead of her

"Okay calm down alright, I brought lots of stuff for you, here they are" it was then she noticed he was holding a huge gift bag with him. The happiness of seeing him after all these time made the gift bag unnoticeable.

"Oh better, else I would have sent you back to where you are coming from" Clara said and they both laughed.

They talked to catch up on what they've both missed in their lives late into the next day.

When they stopped talking and looked at the time it was already 3:00AM the next day, so Gabe had to excuse himself.

"Hey, I really have to go now, but I will come back this evening but this time through the doorway not through the balcony like some kid and when I do, we will both go to a party, to have fun is that okay?"

"Why wouldn't it be? I have been mostly couped in here since my best and only friend decided to leave me alone for years, so yeah am in"

"Come on are you still mad at me?"

"Of course who wouldn't be?"

"Fine then, tonight I will make it up to you okay?"

"Hmm am looking forward to it then."

"Okay I have to go now, see ya" Gabe waved her but, Clara stood up and hugged him tightly instead.

"See you soon Gabe"

I am so glad Gabe came back at least my days of despair are far gone. Can't wait to start having fun and party, like people my age.

Gabe's POV

I really missed Clara, ever since I left her to go practice in the neighboring town due to my first shift. My parents took me there because I was frantic about what was happening to me. It was a new feeling so as not to freak out, I had to leave my best friend's side. It hurts me to leave her all alone with her toxic family, it wasn't that much of a great idea for me. But in order to be able to control myself and not scare her off, I needed to accept what I am and embrace it so as not be ashamed of who I am. Who knows I may be able to show her this other side of me without having any negative reaction from her. Cause this secret I held of being a werewolf was too big for me to keep in and away from her. We've always told each other everything about ourselves no matter how big of a secret it was. We open up to each other regardless of what our reaction will be towards that, but me keeping this big secret from her is a heavy weighted one and I don't know how to tell her about it.

When I called her, hearing her voice made me realise she is the only friend I don't want to ever hurt. So I better keep it to myself then until the time is right for me to open up to her about it.

Being by her side is something I have missed so much and that alone is something I don't want to ever go through. When I was away learning how to control and shape shift without any hindrance alone with some strict Alpha.

I felt like a part of me was missing, when I came back and saw her, I felt whole once more. She is an exceptional soul, someone you can be comfortable around. She is so different from her family one would think she was adopted because everything, from her facial appearance to the way she is treated differs greatly from the rest of the Coopers.

When I gave her the chocolate cake and Teddy bear she was so happy, her eyes lit up I love the smile and happiness she exhibited last night, I can't wait to put more smiles on her pretty face.

I can't wait for tonight to take her to a neighboring town, heard they are throwing a party. Am sure it will make her happy. I missed seeing her dance like her world depended on it.
