A Questionable Fate (boyxboy)

Chapter 19

Valentine

I sat with Breese outside the main meal hall. Something was up with our guys that have been avoiding us for the last couple of weeks. 

"Val look." Breese tugged on my hand. 

Nicolai and Quinn were walking towards us. They both stared at the ground as they got closer and I knew they weren't even going to acknowledge us. And honestly it didn't surprise me that much, I was used to be treated horribly by the higher ranked wolves. Breese, however, looked like he was going to burst into tears if Nicolai treated him like a stranger anymore. 

Breese squeezed my hand as they got closer. He still had faith in Nicolai somehow. I was already sure that I would try my hardest to beat the shit out Quinn when I got the chance. 

As they passed us I put my other hand on Breese's shoulder and glared at our mates. 

Breese turned to me, "I don't understand. I just don't know why this is happening." 

"I know, I know." I said.

Breese bowed his head and slowly started crying harder and harder. I couldn't stand seeing him so hurt and it was all because of Nicolai. 

"Stay here. I'll be right back." I said. 

He nodded and I turned to walk into the meal hall. I got a couple weird looks from the older wolves but none of them said a word to me so I kept going. I was going to find those two and figure out what the hell was going on. 

I saw the back of Quinn's head and marched my way up to him then tapped him on the shoulder. He turned and when he got a good look at who it was he froze. 

"Hi Quinn. I need to talk to you and Nicolai if you don't mind." I said. My words were harsh and I hadn't meant to have had such an attitude. 

Quinn cleared his throat and glanced around at all his higher ranking wolf buddies that were looking at him like he was crazy for letting a runt talk to him like that. I realized other wolves looking this way and knew I couldn't keep this up.

I bowed my head and apologized for the tone but I really did need to speak with him. 

The wolf that went by Juxo stepped forward, "Quinn don't worry about him, He's a runt you don't have to do what it wants." 

"Ya, and since when do you mess around with the runts?" Cloudy said.

"He's Nicolai's Bloodrem, and Nicolai's always messed around with them." said a dark wolf a didn't know.

Quinn spoke up, "It will only take a second, I'll be right back."

A couple of the boys he was standing with shook their heads and smiled at each other. "We'll be waiting Q." One of them shouted after him.

We walked out of the main hall and I took him outside to Breese. Nicolai came running out to, he'd probably seen me dragging Quinn out.

"Quinn, you cannot be taking orders from Valentine your going to get yourself in trouble." Nicolai hissed.

"Whatever, they don't deserve to be left in the dark about this. It involves them too." Quinn said.

Nicolai shook his head and clasped his forehead in his hand. "Fine."

Breese was still crying, softer now, but still crying.

"Breese..." Nicolai said as he walked over, "I'm so sorry."

Breese turned away from him, "I don't want to here it. You... you just..." He words were cut off by more tears.

Nicolai gently grabbed his hand, "Come on, we need to talk somewhere private."
