2437 Words
*NOTE* There will be surprises, along with truth in this chapter. Also you will meet a VERY important person in this chapter that goes deep into detail about how our lovely Asher came to be. Lately, you might fell uncomfortable towards the end and I'm very sorry. somewhat okay to the point y'all wouldn't hate the book, but there's a reason for everything remember that.
Now onto the story~
~Mr. Roman's POV~
Getting, Asher out the mall bathroom wasn't a big probable for me actually. We simply went through the front double doors, and if someone looked at us weirdly Trevor just tapped their foreheads and they go back to what they were doing. It's a werewolf trick which comes in handy like situations like this.
Throughout the whole time, I was carrying Asher, I had to keep my wolf down since he really wanted to come out and well~ go after the vampire and basically tare his head off his body.
As much I want to, my priorities right now are my mate and getting his medical attention. You're probably wondering why I just take him to a regular hospital right? Well one; I really don't want them to question why he has bite marks on his neck... well what's left of it. And two; it's time that he finally meets the pack and tells him our secret. Hopefully afterwards, Asher will understand and won't basically blow up in my face on why we lied to him since he was born.
"Let's just pray that it all goes well."
~At Pack House~
"How bad is he doc?" I asked the pack doctor, Ryan. He's been in the family since his parents passed away so many years ago, but that's another story to tell.
"Well he has lost a lot of blood for starters. His head is bruised, but that'll heal quickly in no time which is good. And he does have some broken ribs. Other than that, Asher we'll be fine~ I'm just glad that you came in time before he lost more blood Alpha." He told me.
Just hearing that my mate was going to be okay was enough for me to finally take a breather. I looked at his Uncles, and they too had satisfied facial expressions. Honestly, I couldn't even imagine how this made them feel, since Asher is basically their baby boy who they raised since childhood.
"Alright Ryan, how long do you think its going to take for him to completely be healed?"
"Hmmm~ from all his wounds and bruising I'd say about two weeks since he is human it will take him some time." He told us.
I nodded my head understanding what he's told us. My wolf was still hurting from seeing our mate in this state. Asher was all covered in bandages from head to toe, and it only pained me to death.
"We should leave and let him rest. As much as we really want to stay and wait until he wakes up, it would be best if we patiently waited." I said to Trevor and Quinn.
"Y-you're right. C'mon sweetie, let us go and get some rest until the morning." Trevor says, to his husband who didn't want to leave, but he knew he had to.
"C-can't I just sit next to him please? I can't l-leave our precious baby." Quinn begged.
Trevor couldn't handle his husband being like this, it really pained him to say no to him because he hated the idea of making Quinn more upset. Times likes this, Trevor has to make a difficult decision- which he did.
While Quinn, was distracted by holding Asher's hand, he didn't notice until it was too late that he was being lifted up and put on Trevor's shoulder.
"HEY! PUT ME DOWN!"
"Honey, I'm doing this for your own good- trust me."
"NOOOO!!! I CAN'T LEAVE HIM!"
"Alpha, I will talk to you later, right now I have to calm Quinn down as you can see."
Roman nodded his head understanding his second in command personal priorities. As Trevor, left the room you could still hear Quinn screaming all the way down the hall.
"Sighs- what am I gonna do with them, Asher? I hope you wake up soon~"
~Asher's POV~
It's dark.
My body hurts.
Where am I?
...am I dying?
After waiting and waiting for something to happen, I decided to walk forward. Don't know where, but just kept walking into darkness. Suddenly I heard a voice. The voice was calm and quite you could barely hear it.
"Asher."
There it was again.
"Who's there?"
"Why don't you turn around and see."
I did what the voice said. I turned my body around and to my surprised~ it was ME.
"H-how is this possible?! Who are you?"
"I'm you. Haha~ I'm your wolf, nice to meet you!"
Right then and there I freaked out. My eyes turned huge and my mouth was wide open. I couldn't believe this! How do I have a wolf? I'm only human- well that's what I thought until now.
"Th-this is not true! What do you mean you're my wolf? I'm human aren't we?"
"Believe me, this will all be explained soon. But you need to wake up! Everyone is worried about you and the more you sit and wait they'll just get more worried. So please Asher~ WAKE UP!"
It's like my body automatically woke up itself as I sprung up on my hospital bed.
"Ahhhhhh." I woke up screaming my lungs out, with beads of sweat coming down my face.
"ASHER! OMG YOU'RE OKAY!"
I was tackled back down on the bed by Mr. Roman. He gave me a tightening hug, but it felt really nice so I didn't complain. He was really warm, which I didn't mind much. I put my head between his neck and shoulder and just stayed there for a few minutes until we eventually broke apart.
"Asher, how are you awake? I mean I'm ecstatic, but like the doctor said that you would be in bed for about two weeks?"
I only looked at him confused, because I didn't know what was happening since I just woke up.
"Right okay, you're probably confused aren't you?" He asked me.
I nodded my head yes.
"Well alright. First let's get you out of this room and get you something to eat. I know you're really confused, but don't worry things will he explained" Mr. Roman told me as he helped me out of the bed.
~Livingroom~
After I got all situated with the doctor, he let me go with Mr. Roman into another room that I soon discovered was the Livingroom.
Once we got there, Uncle Trevor and Quinn was sitting on the opposite couch from me.
"Ashy! I'm so glad you're okay!" Quinn says, as he came and gave a motherly hug, which I gladly fell into.
"I'm okay... really I am." I patted his back.
"We're just glad that you're okay. But... can I ask a question son?" Uncle Trevor asked.
I gave him a nod.
"Okay well... how did you're injures heal so quickly?"
"I would like to find out myself really because the last thing I remember was being lifted by that guy in the bathroom..."
"WAIT!" I suddenly shouted making everyone go wide eyed.
"W-where did that guy go?! Please tell me you caught him, or at least saw his face?"
Once I asked that question, Uncle Trevor and Quinn looked at each other, but what got me was the look Mr. Roman was giving me. His look as if he heard some really bad news and that he was gonna get back at them, or something.
"We didn't catch the person, but we do know who attacked you in the bathroom." Uncle Trevor said.
"Well that's better than anything right? But, now I have a question for you guys."
Everyone got stiffed in their seats.
"Sighs... it's time we finally tell you."
~Mr. Roman's POV~
It was time we finally told, Asher that there is much more out there than meets the eye. Trevor and Quinn, got more comfortable in there seats since they know this will be a LONG talk.
"Asher it's finally time that we told you the truth." I told him.
"The t-truth?"
"Yes the truth. Now I suggest you get comfy because we're gonna be here for awhile."
"O-okay."
~~~~~~
"Now let's start off easy. Asher you live a world full of supernatural all around you. There is werewolves, vampires, fairies, witches, demons~ ha you name it. But yeah, you are in a pack territory of werewolf's which me, and your two uncles are also as well. I am the Alpha of this pack, and Trevor is my Third in Command where as Quinn is my Selsa. I'm sorry that we kept this secret from you, but your uncles wanted you to have a normal teenage life... well as much normal they could make it." I was done talking; now it was the time and see what Asher was gonna do with all of this information.
The whole time he paid attention. Sometimes, he would go wide eyed, or just simply have a blank face for it. Looking at Trevor and Quinn, they both had each others hands intertwined holding each very tightly. You can tell that they wanted to see what their little Nephew, or son, was gonna say.
"I - I- I..." He begin to say. "I can't believe all of this is true, but I'm not mad at you guys not at all... you we're just protecting me from all this and for that I love you guys." Asher says, with a smile. But then he slowly looked down making my eyes to frown.
"What is it, Asher? I asked him.
"Ummm- when I was unconscious before I went into this mind thing where I literally talked to myself- which was weird, but the one thing he- I said was he's my wolf."
Hearing that, I suddenly jumped for joy knowing that my mate has a wolf. His uncles no doubt, was the more shocked/happy I was.
"What!? But you're mother wasn't a wolf?" Trevor suddenly said.
"T-then it must have been her mate, or someone she feel in love with?" Quinn said.
They were both right. Asher's mom and Trevor's sister wasn't a wolf at all. She was born without one, which shocked her family because both of their parents were werewolves. I guess you could say, her wolf never "developed" inside her mothers womb. To this day, it's still a mystery, but we don't really bring it up for reasons.
"W-where is my mother?" Asher suddenly asked.
F*ck!
"D-didn't she love m-me?"
Why do I have a feeling he's about to go all cry mood.
Quickly Quinn, came up and held Asher close to his chest. He knew this day would come, but didn't think so soon. I could have a part in this seeing as though I was the one who started talking about the truth. Hey- could you blame me? Asher needed to know, and after getting attacked again by that vampire I was wasn't having it.
"Asher sweetie, you know she loved you- she was in a really bad place and couldn't keep a baby around. Remember this- no matter what happens you're always gonna be our little baby boy, okay?"
I looked at Asher, he understood the situations, but I could still see on his face that he was pained about it- even if he tried to not show it.
"Asher you're uncles are right. Your mother did love you, and she was in a bad situation- basically what I'm trying to say is that she wanted what was best for you. And that was giving you away to you're uncles."
*Sighs* "I understand don't get me wrong- but someday I would like to meet her... at least one time."
~Unknowns POV~
It's been years. Years that I've lost because of my doing in my past. The day that ~ was born was the happiest day of my life. He looked just like me, which I was really grateful for. I didn't want ~ to look like his father and then someday find out what he does.
I wanted my baby to grow up and become a successful young man one day, and maybe in the future have babies I could call my grandchildren... but no- that was taken away from me because of HIM.
My life was ruined the day I met him. And what's even worse is that he's not even my mate actually.
Me being young, I didn't know anything better, but when I eventually found out it was already too late.
He already had enough dirt on me that I couldn't just get up and leave. And when I wanted to, he would just beat me, over and over again. It got to the point that he got sick of it and finally did it. The first person I ever fell in love with turned out to be the bad guy in the end.
Remember when I told you, ~ was the happiest day for me? Well he was. But the reason for that is because he was the result of a r**e pregnancy.
*Sighs* Yep- there you have it folks... that's the big secret I've been hiding ever since. I mean... you might look on the bad side, no- to me... that incident was the result of a beautiful bundled of joy and I couldn't ask for anything more than seeing, ~ for the first time.
Although, our time was short, I treasured the moments we had together. When I did give birth to, ~ his father wasn't there to see it, because he was on a mission since I was only two weeks of knowing, which I'm truly grateful because he would have trained our son to be just like him and I wasn't having that.
That night, I brought all the little things I got for him and stuffed it into a bag with, ~ name on it. Even though, I knew I was never gonna see my baby for a very long time... I'm just glad he could have a better life- and that's all a mother could ask for.
"Hey! What are you looking at?" Suddenly, he comes behind me scaring me a bit.
"What? Oh, nothing. Are you ready?" I asked him.
He gave me a look for a minute, before eventually giving me a little smile.
"Yeah alright."
He turned around and headed the other direction. I do a sigh before heading his way, but I couldn't help but do quick look towards my family I once dreamed about meeting again.
"I'll see you soon~"
~A/N~
