Part Ten

Harry couldn't stop thinking about what Sidas had told him. Fenrir had approved of the sleepover and he and Gilliam were currently in the Alpha suite at the packhouse.

It has a layout like a house. Two bedrooms, a bathroom, a kitchen, and a living room.

They were on the living room floor, Harry was showing Gilliam his Patronus when Fenrir walked in. Sitting heavily on the couch. "Time to go brush your teeth and get ready for bed," Harry said, seeing that it was 9:30 pm.

Gilliam poured but ran off to the bathroom to do as told. "Are you OK?" Harry asked, and Fenrir sighed. The raven crawled up on the couch and sat very close to the Alpha.

"I'm fine, just been checking out sightings of a wolf in our area, and we've been getting some threats too," Fenrir told him as Gilliam came rushing back into the room.

The ten-year-old climbs up on the couch and settles between them. "Can we play chest?'' he asked and Harry nodded, accioing the game they played for an hour before Gilliam fell asleep on Harry.

Harry picked him up and brought him to the guest room, he laid him on the bed and covered him under the blanket before stepping out of the room. He headed to the bathroom, took a spare toothbrush, and cleaned his teeth.

He exited the bathroom and felt a chill breeze, pausing as he looked towards the opened door to Fenrir's bedroom. He slowly entered the room and made his way to flowing light blue curtains that blew in the wind from the balcony door.

He made his way to the balcony door and stood there looking at Fenrir. The Alpha's shoulder-length hair blew in the wind. "You seem to have become close to Gilliam," Fenrir said, not looking back.

Harry jumped at the sound of his voice. "Yeah, he is a good kid," he said, walking out onto the balcony. He stood beside Fenrir and leaned on the railing. "Sidas told me their story," he said, and Fenrir sighed.

"He did, did he," He said and Harry nodded. "They've been through a lot, Sidas was a shell until he saw them again. Gilliam was afraid of everybody for a while, warmed up to them but Angela. She was a bitch, she manipulated everything she could. She was my friend. We were all friends, Sidas, me, George, Angela, Marias, and Credo. We grew up together. But as we grew people changed, George and Angel most of all," Fenrir said, before turning to look at the small wizard beside him.

"Come one, let's go inside you're shivering," Fenrir parted the curtains and allowed Harry in.

"I have heard a lot about Angela, but I hardly heard anything about George," Harry said and Fenrir growled.

"What can I say? He's a prick, a selfish, arrogant, spoiled bastard that thinks the world is his to command and ruin it," Fenrir sneered.

"Who's older?" Harry asked, curious.

"I am, unfortunately," Fenrir said, taking off his shoes and shirt before sitting on the edge of the bed with a flustered Harry looking at him.

"What's that supposed to mean?" Harry asked and the wolf looked away.

"Can we talk about this another time?" He asked and Harry got the message.

"Oh, um OK, I'm going to sleep with Gilliam," he said before leaving the room.

Fenrir watched him go feeling something weird in his chest. He raised his hand to the center of his chest, touching his wolf.

"What's going on?" He asked.
