My Love, My Alpha (On Hiatus)

Chapter 5 - Problem to Problem

Callum's POV

2 Weeks Later

My heat ended, but it felt like it lasted forever rather than a week. There were more problems between Nikolai and I. I'm surprised by his dedication, and that of my owner to stop him. Christian had cemented the bottom of the fencing, to hinder any of Nikolai's attempts to dig under the fence.

I layed in the kitchen while Melissa began making some lunch for herself, while the rest of the family was at work, or school. She handed Ray and I some pieces of chicken while cooking. I think she is making a chicken wrap, but I've been too occupied with the delicious smells.

Ray is laying down next to me, and nuzzles my head with his once in a while. I whimper slightly at the thought of him being in a rut. I get up to head to the living room, but Ray tugs on my ear hard; stopping me in my tracks.

Melissa looks towards us, "Ray! Let go of him. Now!" He stands up quickly to growl at her. I yelp slightly, since he still has a hold of my ear. Melisss stops cooking, and begins to reach out to us. Ray all the while begins to slowly, and painfully, drag me somewhere else.

Melissa squats down, and Ray gets in between her and I. He growls protectively at her. He has to be in a rut, so I need to get somewhere else before he starts up my heat again. I quickly run out of the room, and try to find a place to hide.

I head upstairs to find a door open slightly, and bolt inside. The door closes on me, and I notice that I'm in the hallway's closet. I hear growling and scratching on the door. I whimper slightly as I feel my heat beginning to start up again.

I jump on some boxes to knock down a few towels and blankets. I hide myself under the comfort of blankets, as I doubt Melissa is going to let me out with Ray in a rut; as well as my heat starting because of it.

A couple hours later

The door is abruptly opened, and someone picks me up with my blankets. I whimper from the fright, and feel someone pet my head trying to calm me. "Don't cry Callum. I've got you, and you're perfectly fine." I calm my whimpering at Olivia's voice.

She sets me down inside of something, and I hear a metal click. I realize I'm in a kennel, and begin whimpering again. I'm set down, and hear a car door close. I look out from under the fabric to see everyone in the car, and we're driving somewhere. I look over at Melissa, in the passenger seat, and whine.

A hand unlocks the kennel, and opens the metal door. I slowly crawl out of the kennel. Then, I feel a hand petting my fur gently, so I lean into the touch more. I look to see who us petting me and find Bonnie. I crawl towards Bonnie, and curl up next to her for comfort. "Callum, what's going on?" I look towards Melissa, and then around at everyone else.

I notice Olivia with her earbuds in, Melissa with a neck pillow, and Bonnie with a book at her side. I lean forward to sniff at the neck pillow, confused as to what's going on. I thought they were taking me back to the shelter, or worse to my original owners. I lick Melissa's cheek, and head back under my blankets in the kennel to sleep.

An hour later

We arrived at an airport about 30 minutes ago, and they had sent with some workers. Why can't I just stay with Olivia? Christian had said that they couldn't leave me at home, or with neighbors, or family relatives because Ray had started up my heat. Then, why do I have to be where the other dogs are with my heat still active? It doesn't make much sense to me.

After the plane ride

The plane ride wasn't as bad as I was thinking. They ended up seperating the omegas, and female pets, from the alphas, and male pets. We landed in Oregon, and are on our way to visit Melissa's brother and his boyfriend.

We get to their house, and it looks enormous. We head inside, and I instantly smell an omega and an alpha. I whimper slightly at the thought of another alpha being near me. Christian knocks on the door, and a dirty-blonde haired man opens it. "Hey sis! I didn't know you were coming."

He gives Melissa a look as if she wants something from him. "Don't give me that look Alex. We came to visit you and Levi. Speaking of which, where is he?" Alex looks at her with a bored look, "He's working right now, and I'm spending my day off at home. Wish he was here with me though."

His attention drifts towards me, "Who's this fella right here?" He squats down to reach his hand towards the gate, and I whimper before he touches it. My kennel is lifted slightly, "This is Callum, and we got him from a shelter." Alex smiles towards Christian, "I think he'll get along with Luna and Jordan very well then."

"Let's head inside, so they can meet." We walk inside to find a living room with leather couches, a flat screen tv, and a fireplace and mantle. Alex whistles, a grey-furred husky and a copper-furred husky come out of a side room. They see me in the kennel, and quickly run over to greet me.

The husky with grey fur jumps up first, 'The name's Luna, and I'm an omega. Pleased to meet an omega from out of state.' She sniffs into the kennel some more, and her ears perk up. She goes to the alpha husky, and begins to tug them into them into the room by their ear.

They leave the room, "The girls have never done that before. What's up with Callum that caused that?" I hear Alex step closer to the kennel. "Callum may...or may not...be in heat," Melissa slowly responds.
