Blue has always been infatuated with Cox since they were kids, he has always tried Befriending him but Cox always tends to run away from any of his brother's friends.
Blue never knew why Cox acted that way and he became determined to find out what caused Cox to act like that with so much fear.
At first, he thought Cox was being shy so he decided to just seat by him in his special place and just talk that maybe he would open up to him. However, Cox noticing him there ran out of reach and Blue couldn’t keep up with him anymore. The fondness he had for Cox didn’t diminish but it wasn’t as present as before.
One day Blue decided to ask Ruben what was going on with Cox but Ruben didn’t know what to tell him, he didn’t know how to begin so he just said his brother was too shy and due to him being the smallest he tends to run from higher-ranking members.
Blue didn’t believe what he said and didn’t want any problems so he left it and never asked until they were Seven years of age.
This time, he went to meet Cox in his special place but he couldn’t find him, he searched everywhere for him but he couldn’t find him anywhere. That was when he made up his mind to go to the Alpha’s house.
When he got closer to the house he heard cries of pain, at first he thought someone broke in so he ran, barging in to see what he could do and help as best as a seven-year-old can but he wasn’t expecting what he saw.
Tied to the chair was Cox bleeding with cuts on him, he looked weak and pale. Ruben was squatting in front of him holding a belt in the air.
Blue couldn’t believe his eyes, his crush was being beaten to death and he never knew about it, he felt like he had failed, he was erupting in anger that the next minute he had closed in on then, hitting Ruben in the face and breaking his nose.
Ruben didn’t hit back because he knew what he was doing wasn’t what he had in mind before, so he made a promise to himself that if he raised his hand to hit his brother again, he would cut his own hands except if his wolf was in control in some instance.
°How dare you hit him to the point of death! No matter what he did to anger you, you have no right to do what you did!° Blue said in rage
°I’m sorry it wasn’t intended, I got carried away °
°Carried Away!? You’re unbelievable! Let me also hit you this bad and apologize by telling you I got carried away!. Come and help me to take care of his asshole!°
Making sure they treated his wounds and bathing for him till he was looking okay, Blue didn’t want to leave Cox alone thinking if he got hurt again. Ruben already noticing his expression told him to a sleepover and he did.
The following morning, he decided to interview Ruben. Ruben never replied to him with the answers he wanted, so he shouted and that caught the attention of the Alpha. Barging into Ruben’s room were his parents who had already heard part of their conversation.
Richard after hearing the conversation between the two boys, called them to his office. Richard knew his decision and desire to make his Omega son strong was totally out of line but he had no solution.
White Wolves had their legends. White-Wolves were said to be wolves with power, wolves meant to give rules and become council leaders themselves. His son was someone he treasured so much but he needed to treat him with harshness to make him become who he was meant to be.
White-wolves were always born in the beta, gamma, or Alpha category. But Cox was born an Omega and because of that, while Cox was growing he tends not to mix or show power instead he would cower when any higher-ups were present. So he made up his mind that he needed to make his son stronger.
The only solution he found was to treat him like a stranger. That didn’t work out because Cox went to his mother instead and his mother would never ignore her son. The other solution he found was maybe when his siblings tend to always show dominance he would get used to it, that was also a failure.
Then he remembered he was a victim of bullying and that made him stronger and he knew that if any of his sons were to be bullied and pushed to the edge and survive it would be Cox. Cox had a strong mind and he knew he would never give up. And that’s what he did he asked some park members for help but no one wanted to make him get stronger in that manner with Cox ending up hating them.
He wanted to ask his siblings but that was until he caught them bullying him, although they didn’t hurt him in any way and that day Cox spoke back out of anger and he didn’t regret it or felt like he was talking to higher-ups. His father smiled knowing he had finally found the perfect solution.
Telling his siblings not to stop and to promise him that they would never hurt him physically. But he thought about the emotional effect
When the two boys arrived, Richard narrated everything mostly to Blue, blue wanted to tell him about how Ruben beat up his brother the night before but Ruben already promised and swore to the gods that it would never happen anymore.
That day was when he made the contract that he keeps regretting every single day.
After the fight between both brothers ended he went towards Ruben to remind him about his promise.
°you promised you would never hurt him anymore, what was that all about!?°
°I promised and I’ve kept all of it but I wasn’t in control today, My wolf was pissed he wanted to tear him apart but he felt a deep force and it was not due to Cox submission, this was different although it was about Cox and it felt like a barrier was holding him down and stopped him from attacking, it also calmed him down.°
° I honestly can’t explain. I have never calmed my wolf down before but just a strong feeling was able to calm him as I’ve never done before.°
°I’m just happy you stopped before you got carried away. Do you think he’s okay? ° Blue asked worriedly.
°He would be fine I’m sure, he’s strong and has Alpha blood in him, I just wish it didn’t have to be this way °
°okay, I hope so.°
Almighty, forgive me for I have sinned, please take good care of Cox for me. I promise not to hit him anymore.
Blue was filled with guilt because he knew he hasn’t been truthful to Ruben.
