THE RETURN OF ALPHA MYLES

New human family

Chapter 5

MYLES

Madam Susan's home is located at the outskirts of the town in a village like setting. I'm glad it's far away from our pack and I assure myself that no one will be able to recognise me here at all.

Her husband Zachary welcomes me warmly since his wife had already told him about me.

They have two daughters, one who's barely six and the last born is only a year old.

“Welcome to our home my son.” the middle aged guy welcomes me as he ushers me to a couch. We're in their living room which serves as a dining room, visitors room, TV room and a sitting room.

Their house is a two bedroomed house with a kitchen and that big multi-purpose living room.
Crystal their first born girl walks to me and offers me a glass of water while Laura the one year old clings onto her mother's dress in fear. She's probably wondering who I am.

The husband who is on leave from work has already prepared a hot meal for us and after eating, madam Susan leads me to the bathroom and tells me to take a bath.

After taking a bath, she leads me to the second room where her daughter sleeps and she offers me a t-shirt and a short which I put on without hesitation.

She advises me to take a rest and we shall have a chat the following day, something I do without hesitation since I'm tired to the core.

She wishes me goodnight and she informs me that they'll share their bedroom with their two daughters so I don't have to worry about anything.

I climb on the bed and pull the duvet over. I'm already yawning and after thanking her for being kind to me, I close my eyes and snore all the way to slumber land.

***
It's early in the morning and sleep has left my eyes. I just can't get any more sleep therefore I sit up on bed, trying to figure out my life from here. So far, I have no idea what awaits me, I don't know if this family will accept me or not but I'm just crossing my fingers.

If all avenues fail, I'll just look for a children home and get myself a home awaiting adulthood.

“Myles,” Crystal calls from the other side of the door. “Breakfast is ready.” she announces.

“I'm coming.” I say as I climb out of bed. I'm not even hungry but I have to join the rest for breakfast.

Everyone is gathered at the living room and a table where breakfast is served is in front of them.

After greeting everyone, I join them and we take our breakfast which consists of toasted bread and coffee.
I eat to my fill and once I'm done, I thank madam Susan and Mr Zachary for the breakfast.

I stand up to help madam Susan to clear the table but she stops me, telling me that she'll do everything. Not that I have any idea how to handle the dishes but I just want to show them my gratitude.

How life changes so fast! Just a day a go, I was a prince who had several servants at his disposal. I didn't clear the dishes after eating, sometimes I took my breakfast on bed, I would give instructions here and there...

“So Myles, where did you say you're from?” Mr Zachary asks, snapping me from my reverie.

“I-I-I don't know the name of our village!” I lie smoothly. “I've been in the river for long after being swept off by the overflowing river. I can't remember anything!” I say as tears well up my eyes. I have to pull an act so as to sound real.

“Oh my son, I'm so sorry!” he apologises as he pulls me into a hug. I'm just praying that he doesn't smell my scent and perceive it because if he knows that I'm a werewolf, he might send me away thinking I might harm his family. “Can you describe your village? What is your father's name?”
