The Alpha

=Five Days Later=
Benjamin finally turned back into his human form making Alec and Sam more at ease. His body had healed a lot but he still had some bruises and his back was getting scars from the whipping lashes. Alec and Sam always checked on his wounds everyday so they knew that they were healing nicely.

After another day went by Benjamin woke up, looking around the room. He wasn't in that much pain as before and he sees Alec asleep next to him. Ben smiled and cuddles up to him hugging him. Alec moves slightly and wakes up looking down at Ben and smiled brightly seeing Ben's eyes opened. "You're awake" he says quietly as looks down at him. Ben nods looking up at him "I'm awake....did it work?" He asked him curiously. Alec nodded sitting up hugging Ben "it did you shifted into your wolf form. You had to rest in that form for five days. Well six days now." He says to him petting his hair as Ben laid his head on his chest. "Long time....well then, how do I change into my wolf form then?" Ben asked him curious about how it worked. "I will teach you when we get home okay, right now you should relax, eat, and shower. Okay?" He rubs his arm gently. "Okay Alec" he says to him and sits up. Alec gets out of bed and wakes up Sam before getting clothes for him and Ben. "Ben's awake Sam" he says as he turns to him as he woke up from the couch.

"Oh hey Ben glad your finally awake." Sam says rubbing his eyes and looking at Ben. "Hey Sam, when did you come?" "The day after he changed you." Benjamin nods in understanding as Alec came over with clothes for the two of him. "Sam can you go out and get some food for Ben while we shower." Alec asks him as he helps Ben out of bed. Sam nodded "yeah sure I'll be right back". He says to him as he puts on his shoes. Alec smiled and brought Ben into the bathroom. He turns on the shower and gets undressed. "I'll help you wash up, okay Luna?" Ben nods smiling, "okay Alec, thank you". Alec smirk and got in the shower with Ben. "You're welcome, let's start washing your body first". Alec says and grabs the soap and starts washing Ben's body. Ben blushes as he got shy, they rarely got naked in-front of each other. "We should be heading home soon. So that way we can have you safe and sound." Alec says as he washed Ben's body. Ben nods as he let's Alec wash his body.

After they both showered and got dressed, Sam came in with some fast food for Ben. "Here Ben I got you a chicken sandwich from McDonald's. Hope you like it, we'll make you something better when we get home." Sam says giving him the food and a bottle of water. Ben takes it and sits down on the bed, smiling softly. "Thank you Sam" he says and starts to eat the food. Alec sat down and watched his mate with a smile on his face. He was so glad that Ben finally got to eat. "Ben, you continue eating, we are going to pack everything up. We're going to go leave back to home after your done". Alec says and Ben nods in response. Sam and Alec start packing, while Ben ate his food. When everything was done the three were ready to go. Sam went down to the front counter and paid, while Alec goes with Ben to get a taxi.

Ben and Alec put the luggage in the taxi, as Sam comes out to join them. "Are you ready honey?" Alec asked wrapping his arm around him. Ben nods "yeah I'm ready" he says softly. Alec smiled and pecks the top of his head, he opens the back door for Ben to get in. Ben gets in as Alec follows and Sam got in the front with the driver. Sam tells the driver that they need to get to Legton. From there they would get another taxi to go to head to their hometown. After an hour or two they got to Legton and Alec instantly became more alert of Amos and Rebecca being around or the rest of the Windpaw pack. Sam gets out and pays the driver before getting their luggage out. Alec keeps Benjamin close and gives him a hat so it would be a little bit harder to see his face. Although he couldn't hide their scents well it would at least help with hiding his visual identification. The three quickly head to a store to hide out at as they wait for their next taxi to arrive. As Ben looked around with Alec in the store Alec put an arm around him protectively. Glancing around sometimes as he felt like there was eyes of them, but his second thoughts were that maybe he was just paranoid. Sam goes over and tells them that the taxi has arrived. The three quickly headed out and got into the taxi and traveled to their own town. What they didn't know is that Legton had a lot of places owned by the Windpaw pack, that included the store they were in. The cashier recognizing them and told Amos.
