"Get up."
Abel looked up, covering his eyes. "Who are you?"
Cain leaned down, "my order should not be returned with a question." He grabbed Abel by the arm, picking him up. "Get up."
Abel snatched himself away, "excuse you, watch who you are touching." He shoved the alpha away, "touch me again and I will kill you."
Cain stared at him, "I will ask for a new partner."
"Oh Lord," Abel rolled his eyes, "please do -because if that is the way you respond to a partner, this will never work." Cain walked away from him, leaving Abel standing alone. "Who the fuck are you?"
-
"What!"
Zayn flinched, looking Abel up and down before he sat, "must you scream?"
"Cain is Adam's son? -what!"
"Yes," Harry chewed his food. "That is what I just said."
"Wha -that alpha?" His voice lowered, pointing at Cain who sat alone. "That is his son? Adam's son? You are talking of the Council Adam, correct?"
Harry blinked at him, "are you deaf?"
Abel dropped his head on the table, "I cannot believe this -he was originally my partner -he is awful."
Zayn stirred his food around, "you would think they would give us better food than this, right?"
"Hello!" Abel raised his arms, "I could have been a part of council!"
"If you were trying to be in council, you should have gone a different route." Harry looked at Zayn, "and yes, I agree."
"I would have -but my father did not agree."
Zayn lifted his fork, "well, if you do well enough then you can ask for a transfer."
"I just wish to be a paper runner -a secretary, anything." Abel sighed, poking at his bread, "I like the thought of order."
"Who is your new partner?"
"No one yet, I am waiting to be called in front of the sergeant." He sighed, "He told me to get up." Zayn and Harry raised a brow at the same time. "I was just sitting, and he told me to get up. It was very rude." He shrugged, "he grabbed me, and I shoved him off -do you think that will be enough to switch partners?"
"Maybe." "No."
Abel sighed, "no?"
"I said maybe," Zayn pointed at Harry. "He said no."
"This is boot camp, they do not care for those sort of complaints -they will most likely punish you both for even requesting a switch."
Abel frowned, "do you think?"
Harry stood up, "yes."
Abel watched him walk away. Once out of ear shot, he spoke, "how can you deal with him?"
"Harry?" Zayn shrugged, "he does not talk much, unlike you."
