Within the Forest (Werewolf Solangelo AU)

Chapter Fifty-Four: Please

Will's POV

I don't know what just happened. All I know if I'm not outside, behind the house, and Sol is freaking out. My first thought was "where's Nico". With him just coming back, that's going to be my first thought for awhile. Then I turned my attention to the extreme stress that hung inside me. What just happened? Oh right. Nico started screaming and crying, like he was hurt, and Sol freaked out and told me to leave. When I refused...

Sol! Why'd we just leave?!

We.. We couldn't stay in there.

Why?!

Nico's in heat, you idiot?! Did you.. Smell it?

So that's what that smell was..

YES!

Well it wasn't unpleasant..

Ugh. It's not SUPPOSED to be unpleasant! That's the point!

But he's human.. How..?

We don't know! We just know he is!

Did you just leave?! Why didn't you try to say something to him?!

We panicked...

Because he's in heat?

Because we have no self control. We've discussed this.. Remember?

Yeah, I could have used better wording.. But it's true.

How do you like a wolf with "no self control" would react to their mate in heat?

They'd probably, i dunno, force mate- oh.

Yeah.

That's not good.

Ya think?! You already yelled at us about having no self control once and we didn't even hurt Nico that time!

You bit him.

He liked it.

Ugh, whatever. What do we do?

Just don't go in there... Send a heating female in there or something.

Why only female? Males heat too.. Obviously.

You think we're gonna want any males in the room with him, period?

Yeah okay. Lou Ellen it is.

I hope her and Cecil aren't.. Yeah again. It's been, what, three days? Maybe four? Should be another three or two days left until the heat ends. I sincerely hope that rule goes for Nico too.

Thankfully when I got there, they weren't even in the process of mating. Just bickering as usual. Good. I did not want to walk in on something like that ever again.

"Hey Lou? Can I.. Talk to you for a sec? Alone?" This was awkward. Lou and Cecil exchanged looks before Cecil shrugged, got up and went outside. I swear if he eavesdrops....

"What's up Alpha? I didn't think I'd ever see you out of the house after Nico came back," Lou teased, making me roll my eyes.

"Well, it's about Nico..." I started, earning a small laugh.

"So you didn't come to say 'Hi' after everything that happened without Nico here?"

I crossed my arms, smirking. "Listen this is serious. And if you want Sol to tell you instead-"

"No Alpha, my apologies on my tone. Please. What do you need?" That changed her tone. It's obvious she isn't scared. She just really doesn't want to deal with Sol. Honestly, me neither at times.

I quickly explain what had happened with Sol, Nico and I. She was confused, I still was, but agreed to make sure Nico was alright. I felt a huge weight being lifted off my chest once she said yes.

Nico.. Please be okay......
