Forests And Wolves

Alicia

I wake up, hearing laughter, I look around and find myself in a huge bed in a huge room, I see my luggage in a corner, of the room, on the side table, I see a glass of water, I get up and drink it, I remember the last thing, I remember Vulk Wolfshire. Now I want to vomit the water out. I look outside the balcony to see it's night, since when have I been here? Was I drugged? Where is Felix? I open the door, to hear my son's laughter, I walk towards it, and I realize this is a big house, filled with books, couches, a pool, and a gym. I saw an elder woman maybe in her 50s or 60s tickling my son in what I think may be the living room. I walk towards them, a little relieved looking at their genuine laughter. Felix immediately looks at me and beams, I walk quickly towards the couch," Ma" he jumps on me, and I hold him but tremble myself. I am stabled by a hand on my waist. And Felix immediately says " Dad! look mom is awake" Dad? his 'dad' is Vulk Wolfshire, I meet his eyes and he leans to kiss my son's forehead. He smiles looking at the man then looks at me and kisses my cheek, I return a smile to my precious son. "Mom look, I have another grandma."  I smiled at him, and the women lightly, just as I was going to say something. Vulk Wolfshire said,

"What did I tell you, Felix? your mom needs to rest right? Come on go play with your grandma, go" I looked at him, as we both knew what he was trying to do, my innocent little son went on playing the woman. "Can we talk Miss Petroma?" he whispered. 

"Why would I want to talk to a jerk like you, Mr Wolfshire." I hissed. He held my hand and dragged me to a big room. "Look, please I  don't want any trouble just let me and my son go." I stared at him now.

"You are not kidnapped, Miss Petroma, you can leave, any moment you'd like" That was all I needed to turn and walk out of the door. "But don't you want to know, the truth about your son? What he is? And why he is? When I said I understood you, I meant it. I know why you are here."

"What do you know?"

"More than you for sure." I moved closer to him and looked him in the eye.

"Tell me."

"Only if it were that easy. You see, I need to trust you to tell you anything and you will need to trust me for the time being." He smirked.

"ha, I remember what happened the last time I trusted you." I touched my neck as I said that. "But, really, what do you think I can do? I am just a mother who is worried for her child. If I tell the world that werewolves are real then I don't think anyone would believe me."

"I see you're not completely clueless, are you? Well, then you may know it's not just my trust you need to earn, but my whole pack's. And then again I trust you."

I frowned at his statement but said "Your pack?"

"I am the Alpha of this pack."

"Alpha, like as in the leader?"

"Yeah"

"I really doubt your pack's ability to choose a sane leader" He raised an eyebrow. 

"Ouch."  He said. 

"How do I know you're not fooling me?"

"why would I want to unnecessary trouble in my life? I would have long gotten rid of you if it weren't for your deep bond with our pup."  

"Wait a minute, our pup?"

"I am sorry if you haven't noticed, Felix calls me Dad, FELIX?"  he shouts Felix's name, and immediately my  son replies"Yes Dad?"  He smirks. "now please excuse me I want to spend some quality time with my son. In the meantime, you can look around, since I don't think you are planning to  leave anytime soon." I stood there speechless. Jerk I said in my mind.
