Bite down 2

13

This wasn't happening. Prince and I are kneeling in front of the Alpha looking like idiots. We looked like wet rags ready to be thrown away. Right now neither Prince or I mattered. Right now the only thing that mattered was this little fragile looking boy laying on the bare floor.

Nasir doesn't seem like much. I don't think he's so attractive. He seems confident in a way though. He doesn't hide his naked body from the people who are looking on at him. He seems completely aware that he is the center of attention.

His voice is a little bit more than a whisper, "Walid."

You can still hear him even though he speaks so low. That's how quiet the room is right now. You could hear a rat run across the floor. It's so haunting.

"Is it really him?" Fang asks.

Walid's brother never really talked much. The fact that he is walking forward at this moment seems a little odd to say the least. His eyes light up and he seems a little more alive than I've seen him since I came to Vanderbilt castle. He takes a few odd steps towards Nasir but he's stopped by his bigger, more powerful brother. Walid blocks Fang off and takes his place.

Walid's steps aren't awkward. They are powerful. He is moving towards Nasir with this recognition and this meaning that makes me sick to my stomach. The way he is looking at Nasir is making me sick to my stomach.

"Nasir?"

Walid's eyes squint at Nasir. He walks over to him. They are face to face. The boy is so short. He's even shorter than Yuma. He is such a joke of a werewolf but for some reason Walid seems hypnotized by this little figure. Nasir's hair is the most attractive thing about him. It cascades down his back like beads of rain after a storm. It's the silkiest hair I've ever seen before. Walid touches his hair. Walid takes strands of his hair and smells it.

When he inhales his hair, he takes a deep breath.

"What's going on here?" Prince asks.

Prince is annoyed but my reaction is worse than Prince. Annoyance is petty. Annoyance is small. Right now seeing how Walid looked at this little lame piece of shit I was sick to my stomach. I was literally sick.

"How is this possible?" Walid asks.

Qadir is the one who responds, "The witchdoctor brought my brother back to life. He's returned to us."

The eyes that are looking at Nasir are eyes of wonder. I'm bothered. I'm jealous. Walid's reaction is everything right now and I'm studying his face the entire time. Does he remember Yaser? Does he remember the guy he was about to declare his Beta wolf?

"You stole him?" Naomi of the Vanderbilt Pack asks Qadir.

Qadir nods, "The witchdoctor wasn't expecting it. I snuck in. I stole Nasir right from under him."

Qadir says it in a proud way. I understand that Nasir is his brother but this is ridiculous. I'm speechless. The entire time.

Walid looks at Nasir. That's when he scoops him up into his arms like the boy child he is. He looks down at him in this protective way. Walid---MY WALID--- was claiming this fucking stranger? I didn't know their history but right now at this moment I'm beyond shocked. I'm beyond confused at what exactly is going on.

"Send the visitors home," Walid says, "The witchdoctor will want Nasir back. This place isn't safe. I have to protect Nasir."

Right now Walid's only concern is Nasir. He barely even recognizes me. He barely even sees me. The room starts to clear and Walid is carrying his past lover away. He starts walking right past me but I'm not going to make it that easy for him.
