One last look : : : SOLO

Ben had never thought this day would ever come, not of his own free will, but he needed this more than ever and Attila understood... his Alpha always did. He'd given the ancient wolf a number to call wherever and whenever he needed support. He'd given a lot of money to the city, and it was because of his loyalty and dedication to the pack and his Alpha that the ancient wolf had granted him his wishes to leave with Kadyn who'd keep his memories. He could've asked Galadrielle for her private jet, but he wanted to leave with a minimum of people knowing where he was going.

The seed had been planted a few years ago by the first love of his life in a letter. It had been there since then, not really doing anything until recently when he had gone on a trip to South America with Kadyn. The trip had been longer in the end, and Ben had realized how much he'd really missed being nomadic. And as much as his boy played it cool, he knew Kadyn was struggling in Covaire. His mishap during the full moon was a reminder of that. And he was happy with Ben no matter what, but how much happier would he really be outside? Probably a lot more than he had wanted to admit until he had taken his decision and made the preparation for his next move.

Leaving Covaire... he could say it now.

But couldn't do the whole last call tour, too many emotions to deal with when he already had his own to deal with. No point of last kisses and last fuck, it would just hurt everyone more. Of course Leopold would get a goodbye... more like a see you on the road. The boy would know how to reach out for him through Attila. He couldn't leave without giving Galadrielle a phone number to leave a message at in case of trouble. She was after all his only way to communicate with Bryce.

His bank account would stay in Covaire, it would be safe there. He'd keep the last house he had remodoled, paying someone to take care of it, and also Rhett's house. He'd always wanted the Healer to be able to return to his house if he ever came back to the city... and he wanted to keep a place to go back, like he had in Greece. Those two places had meant the most to him and knowing he could always return felt good.

He didn't know what he would do yet... travel for sure, but would he try to find Rhett? He would reach out for him, that was sure, but the Healer needed time with his son and that was something Ben would never jeopardize. As for Bryce, the boy needed to be trained, maybe once that was done, they could meet again. He would visit Killian more often, that was a given. Maybe they would meet Aristaios by chance... but for now, it would only be Kadyn and him. For once in his life, he wasn't running away from something or someone, and he wasn't leaving someone for their own good... no, this time around, Ben was doing this for himself first, to be happy, to finally learn that it was alright to feel that way, and that maybe, it was time for him to finally breathe after holding his breath for so long. He could finally learn to live.

He looked back on the city smiling and feeling that heavy weight chip away from his shoulders slowly but surely. One more shaky breath and he was ready.

"So long Covaire City and thank you... you haven't seen the last of me."

: : : OOC : : :

And with these two solos (lol), I'm wrapping up a 5 years and +20k posts adventure with this boy. I still love him so damn much, but I've never been the type of person to force a muse in one direction when it feels so natural to go the other way. (I'm not crying!) It's the same reason why Ben didn't make any real goodbyes. And let's be real, I wouldn't have had the heart to go through that either. As you can see, everything was put back to have Dan Feuerriegel as his fc again, cause I started with him and I'll finish with him (and yes, that gif is the one I used for his first starter ever, talk about going full circle...). Thank you so much everyone for all the threads and the admins for being amazing!

Love you guys!

One last goodbye : : : SOLO

Ben had asked the vampire to meet, but had made the specification of the boy picking where they would meet and to pick a place where he felt the safest... or most comfortable. He'd chosen the Chateau, so that was where they were meeting. Ben was dressed casually, nothing different from when he wasn't working, but when they locked the office's door, he took his Chateau's key set and slid them toward the boy. He knew he wouldn't have to tell Leopold what this meant... work was his life in Covaire and if he was giving back his keys, it could only mean one thing, his life was no longer in Covaire.

Leo looked at him. “You left once before. I’ll see you when you come back. And I’ll either be King or I’ll be dead and it won’t matter where you are.” Then he stayed be silent for a long time and told Ben, “I didn’t say this the first time you left because I wasn’t capable of it. So I will say it now...” he paused again, longer this time, much longer, “You are the father figure I didn’t deserve but got anyway. For most of my existence I hated you for it. You are one of the two people to ever live that believes in me. And I will never be capable of showing you my appreciation for it. Go live your life. I despise your need to leave and I don’t understand it. But I accept it.”

Ben came around the desk kissed the boy then hugged him, trying not to be too emotional, but Leopold had made so much progress over the years and to hear him say something that he'd known had been there was the best gift he could've asked for.

He turned his head to murmur directly in his ear. "Take care of that boy of yours, and keep letting him take care of you. I know I'll get to see you wearing the crown one day." The Aussie took a paper out of his back pocket and put it on the desk (his new satellite phone number).

"I know that I am not capable of love. But whatever the next closest thing is. You and he have.” Leo added, “But he will never be family.”

Ben chuckled, he wasn't trying to make this a competition with the Shutcall. Doyle had done what no one else had... And he would forever be thankful to him for it.

“I remember the first time Alastor killed one of the pets he gifted me with. You carried me, sobbing and screaming, out of his presence. I remember falling asleep in your arms. Utterly exhausted. I grew to hate the way you held me because I needed it.” Leo shook his head, “Your soft spot for children might get you killed one day. But thank you.”

The now ex-guard barked a laugh. Children were his kryptonite, but Leo's was his hunger for power. But the Doyle boy would still be there to help him while he was away. But now, he needed to go, or this would last for years. It was better to leave some things unsaid. He gave the vampire a kiss on the forehead, turning to leave and opening the door, giving the other one last look.

Leo smirked at Ben, “I would have made a terrible wolf.”

Ben smiled sadly, but with hope in his gaze. "I love you little brother. You'll make a great king." And with that, he left, already missing the vampire, but knowing things would be alright.

brokenxwolf‌:

Kadyn was ready for a broken neck and shouting, he wasn’t quite ready for the punch and it knocked him off his feet. He looked up to Ben with a split lip, licking along it with a frown when the other wolf said it felt good. He didn’t feel good, he hadn’t when he’d spoken about it, and he could have just kept quiet and hoped none of the news got back to Ben, but he wasn’t that wolf. he’d feel bad, feel guilty, for not telling him when he knew the wolf would be disappointed in him.

“Whats… never mind..” he didn’t know what compensating many but he didn’t want to risk angering the wolf anymore. He just stayed down and listened, looking up at ben when he said the human should of known better than being out on the full moon. He was glad when Ben wasn’t even angry about the client, because just like Kadyn thought, they all knew his loyalties without words and  Kadyn did try to appease the client before leaving, but he knew the real wrath was due to Quint, and it made him feel a little sad. He knew most of it was because Ben had already told him to stay away but [art of him couldn’t help but think Ben cared about the stupid pup to react like this.

He wanted to talk back, to ask if Quint had been given that memo, because if he could smell and hear Quint, then it went both ways, but he didn’t say a word, just nodded before Ben asked if he’d made himself clear and he agreed “Yes sir.” The words slipped out like he was talking to someone like Leo, he couldn’t remember the last time he called Ben sir, and it felt strange, but right now it was probably the best way to react to try and keep the room as calm as he could.

Kadyn felt ashamed when Ben spoke about him calling him his Alpha in public, he knew the rules, and he knew Ben was right about what would happen if he apologised to Quint or the Alpha, but he didn’t think he was right when he said to sleep on the couch. He had to think about it as the wolf spoke and his eyes narrowed, his frown turning to more frustration than ashamed or upset. “That’s not…” Fair? He hadn’t really thought of it as risking Ben’s life at the time, and he still didn’t think Quint would tell anyone, but he supposed Ben was right and he’d been reckless.

Things were clear, and he felt like a teenager being grounded when he slowly stood back up and wiped the blood from his lip now it was healing. “What’s two weeks?” he asked and glanced down “Is it long?” he asked and tried his best to keep from talking back but he couldn’t quite help it, he looked back to Ben and sighed “So you’re just going to come home and ignore me after work? Or are  you not coming home at all? Because that’s not fair.” he felt his stomach turn a little and wanted to scream at Ben that they’d already lost one pack member and this was horrible timing, but he just curled his fists at his sides and tried to swallow the anger and hurt at the thought of no contact with anyone. Because to Kadyn, Ben was pretty much it, he didn’t have friends, he didn’t go around hugging people, the only other person he’d ever think about hugging was gone.

: : : dropped : : :

[evcnrcsicr]

He nuzzled into Ben as he let the other take care of him. If only him. Grinning against his skin, he laughed before he leaned back and stole a small kiss before he shrugged his shoulders. “I don’t know Uber. I think lazing about in your loft, naked, sounds like a good idea. Naked.” He iterated the word again. “Besides, it’s never a strain with you. It’s a pain killer.” He reminded him as he tapped the older wolf on the nose. “But I will demand food from the festival. It’s all smelling like heaven, and I can’t ignore it all night.”

[blessed-freeman]

Ben hummed, enjoying the nuzzling and chest almost vibrating from it. He chuckled at the stolen kiss and even more at the not so subtle message. "So first food to go, then back to my loft... shower or food then... and of course naked in bed... oh and Nolan..." he said getting the boy's attention before kissing him deeply and for more than a minute (at least). He pulled back slowly after a while, just enough to break the kiss, smiling at the boy. "Now THAT is a kiss." he winked.

“Boring, around me?! Never! But it would’ve been a lot more painful…” he chuckled back. The number of people who couldn’t stand him was higher than she thought. It wasn’t necessarily who he was that caused problem, but his allergy to bullshit that made it impossible for him not to call out people on it… and most people didn’t like being called out on their bullshit.

Martie shrugged her shoulders, a playful smile on her lips. “Maybe for others, but I like to think I’m well behaved enough that I would have never got into any serious trouble with or without you. Not to say that I don’t appreciate your presence when the cells got boring.” She explained with a laugh. 

[blessed-freeman]

"Darling, I wouldn't like you as much as I do if you had gotten into so much trouble all the time in the first place." he replied, barking a laugh. The guard also hated boys and girls trying to get out of troubles by using his name, but Martine wasn't like that at all and it was why he liked her so much. She was a better version of The program without being part of it. "Should I get you a friend for mister koala at Easter?"

israelskelton‌:

Despite his knowledge, there was so much he had yet to learn. He was still a mere pup compared to the other wolves in Covaire. And when it came to the concept of love he couldn’t wrap his head around it. The closest thing he had felt to love blossomed in the fleeting relations he had formed with the experiments in the Factory. However, that had been ripped away from him and now he wasn’t sure if he could even classify that as love. Infatuation maybe. But not love. He was almost tempted to ask the older wolf about his own experiences but withheld. At the hand on his cheek, he froze, hazel eyes staring intently at Ben as he playfully pulled his bottom lip. Fuck. A silent whine of want welled up in his throat. Oh, the sounds he would make if he could. However, the look in his eyes was all Ben needed. Not even Israel could mask the primal urge he felt. Feeling his skin burn he pulled from the guard’s grasp gently, eyes casting downwards.

It’s a precaution can’t be too careful. You’d be surprised. The smaller wolf shrugged, hazel eyes looking to Ben again. I found bits of glass in homemade brownies once. That was a coworker’s doing after I stole his promotion. He smiled before taking another bite. At Ben’s words, he paused, a range of emotions flitting across his face. Well, this was a first. He shrugged, setting the burger down. I’m observant, not psychic. So I don’t know what you think. I just know what I observe. He bit his lip, taking in a silent breath. I’d do it again if I could - you don’t know what it’s like in there. That’s all he could say - the details would go unheard. Ben, psychopaths can be very charming. Look at Hannibal.

Love stories had never ended well for the Aussie. The last one had been bittersweet because the Healer and him hadn’t parted on bad terms, but because the younger wolf needed to be the father he could never be before, and that was something Ben would never stand between. So he had to let go of the man that had managed to crawl up the crack of the armor around his heart. He knew that one day, they’d meet again, but right now wasn’t their time. It was painful, but he had accepted it. The guard slept around, but his heart was monogamous. Ben chuckled, realizing he had silenced the boy with his promise. The boy pulled away from his touch, but he just stepped closer, leaning down to suck on the pulse in Israel’s neck. “Going shy on me now?” he husked, still nuzzling his neck and ear. “I’m going to stretch that tight hole around my cock... breed you until you cry and come undone... I can see it in your eyes how much you want me...”

“I rarely eat food made by others... trust issues, but I still wouldn’t spoil my own food.” The guard replied. Then he saw the boy going through a lot of emotions he was himself familiar with. Ben smirked knowingly, like he knew something the boy didn’t. Of course he didn’t know that was happening at The Factory, but he wasn’t born yesterday either. He was in town when there had been an explosion and it had messed up with everyone. He seen the slaves from The Program up closed. Israel wasn’t born when Lazarus put that into place, but he was and had been a guard at that breeding place. As someone who’d been a father before, that had been the most disgusting thing he’d seen in his life. So yes, he could imagine what was happening at The Factory, because he’d seen some of the projects it had been part of. “I don’t find Hannibal charming. He’s creepy.”

Mak scowled at the boy who grudgingly cooperated with the rules, making sure to give him a bit extra in the hopes it’d keep him away for a bit. Once she turned her attention to the next guest, she smiled at Ben, simply shrugging. “No satisfying anyone, is there?” She quirked a brow. “Didn’t expect to see your face around this bonfire, or my booth.”

Ben barked a laugh. “Darling, you’re probably one of the few I trust around my food. Unless you’ve forgotten that I’ve eaten your velvet cake more than once. And I’m not the sugary type... So what are you serving?”

“Now Guard Freeman, you don’t go raising my hopes like that,” She did fluster a little but tease him back with a bright smile. Its been a while since she has seen him, as she rarely goes to Le Bordel outside business and even rarer is going to Le Chateau. “Anything catching your eyes besides my unearthly beauty?”

“Raising hope isn’t the problem darling... it’s fighting with the other women in line that gets complicated... Effy isn’t giving up on that first position.” he teased again.

“I’m not much for jewellery, but if you have some watches in there somewhere, you might tempt me into buying something... and take my eyes away from you.”

[evcnrcsicr]

Of all the things that gave him faith in this city, Ben always managed somehow. He saw the look in his eyes and immediately regretted bringing up the healer, missing him in his own way before he leaned in and pressed his forehead to Ben’s shoulder affectionately. He couldn’t stave off the ache he knew the other felt but, he would do what he could as Ben had done for him. “I believe you.”

He laughed before he finally felt like the pain was ebbing a little and looked up at the older wolf. “Don’t look a day over twenty eight. It’s a crime, I tell you.” Tilting his head, he sighed. “Are you gonna make me sit all night? Or are you gonna get food with me.”

[blessed-freeman]

When Nolan leaned into him, Ben held the boy just a little bit tighter, hands running through the brunette’s hair and caressing the small of his back. It could’ve been Nolan he’d fallen for, the medic and the Healer shared similar personality traits that attracted him, but it had ended up to be Rhett in the end. Ben rubbed his thumb along the pup’s jawline, humming. “Good because I believe in you too...”

“Why thank you, thank you! Well personally, I’d breed you in the middle of the East side for everyone to see, but let’s not strain that gorgeous body of yours. We can get something in the West side and if you want to take it easy, we can go relax at my loft.”

[evcnrcsicr]

As he was made to sit back down, he grinned up at Ben. “I don’t know what I need yet and it’s been a while since there was a doctor around I could trust like I trust you. If we’re being perfectly plain, there’s not a whole lot I can do totally awake and on my own.”

At the joke, though, Nolan smirked. “And here I thought you were just a regular old 500. Silly me, forgetting you’ve been around about as long as the idea of father time. What was King Arthur like? Were the Boelyn girls really all that much trouble? How far back are we talking here?” The jest was made all in good fun, though.

[blessed-freeman]

Ben tried his best, but some of the pain he felt couldn't be hidden from his eyes. It didn't last long, but if Nolan was looking, he'd see it pass. He tried not to think about Rhett too often, but it was hard not to around the boy they'd helped together. "I know one or two that owe me a few favors. I'll find you a strong wolf and change everything."

"That's 600 for you. And I was too busy fucking Merlin to care. I might have told Henry to get rid of the bitch." He was just messing around to keep distracting Nolan.

[evcnrcsicr]

blessed-freeman‌:

Ben could’ve been fooled just like the other boys and girls, but he knew the difference between a fake smile and the kind Nolan would give him. He waved a guard closer as he looked at the boy. “You and me, we’re taking a break. The guy there will replace you to keep everyone tamed and polite. Come on little darling.” Better to make it look like he was being a brat, than worry the medics under Nolan’s charge in case something was really going on with him.

If it had been anyone else, Nolan would’ve stayed his place but Ben had a way of swaying just about everything into his favor. Age, wisdom, luck, whatever it was he had a way of commanding the room that made Nolan move. Once out of the line of sight, Nolan let loose a long breath and put his hands on his knees. The pain sat on his chest like a brick. Time for a new pancreas? A new liver? But still, he persisted. Standing back up straight, he looked at Ben and hummed. “Shouldn’t you be off taking an entire pig roast down?” He teased as he leaned against a pole. “Or are you as disdained with the way the beasts are ravaging the tables as I am?”

[blessed-freeman]

Ben sat the boy back down. "None of this with me Nolan. If we need to find you something tell me and I'll go find it for you." 

The guard didn't want to change the subject when Nolan wasn't feeling well, but still, he could make a joke to lighten up the mood. "Side note... I'm over 600, this kind of festivities is how we used to party each springs." he winked at the boy.

[blessed-freeman]

: : : Ben’s look for the festival : : :

An actual little girl gave him the flower crown. He’ll bite anyone trying to steal it.

[evcnrcsicr]

Nolan had to keep a watchful eye out on new medics. They were always so nervous to offer up caring for an escort, or even a master or mistress that got a little too out of hand, but Nolan was so used to these faces that he asked anyone and everyone if they needed water or a hand. Everyone was stuffing themselves full to the brim, and though Nolan was actually allowed to take part, he preferred keeping an eye out just in case. Things could go south so quickly in situations like this, a fight could break out, a human escort could throw up on a master or mistress, it could be chaos before you know it.

It was unfortunate, though, that in this instance Nolan was having a flare-up. Albeit it not noticeable, but to him the pain was almost as agonizing as being a steak roasted over the fire. Someone approached though, and he put on a good smile. “Enjoying yourself I hope?”

[blessed-freeman]

Ben could've been fooled just like the other boys and girls, but he knew the difference between a fake smile and the kind Nolan would give him. He waved a guard closer as he looked at the boy. "You and me, we're taking a break. The guy there will replace you to keep everyone tamed and polite. Come on little darling." Better to make it look like he was being a brat, than worry the medics under Nolan's charge in case something was really going on with him.

Mak moved around the long tables, placing an abundance on food on the plates before her. Some more citizens had begun to line-up, eyeing over the abundance of food laid before them. Loading up a pile of veggies beside a hunk of steak, Mak looked over just as someone went to reach in with their bare hands. “Hey, don’t worry, there’s plenty. Let me put it on your plate, yeah?”

[blessed-freeman]

With his boy unwilling to spend to much time outside because of the loud noises, Ben told himself that he'd bring home food for Kadyn after having his fun. Obviously, as someone who didn't trust others to cook for him, he was looking around for people he could trust with food. And he found even better, someone he'd tasted food from before. He barked a laugh at the person in front of him, trying to get greens with his hand. Once he was gone, Ben came closer, shaking his head. "Acting like animals, then complains they're told they act like one."

it was strangely pleasant if Melanie was honest with herself. The beat of the music reaching her ears as people came in. Old and new customers walked around the kiosk, as its structure was easily the largest around the vendor’s tents. When the Alpha send word of this event, she was both elated and glad to be considered for this event

Humming with the music, she pulled out another rack of rings and bracelets, easily arrange them around for people to see. Her eyes twinkle underneath her sunglasses as she greeted customers. “ Welcome! Feel free to look around and ask for whatever piques your interest.” 

[blessed-freeman]

Ben got curious after seeing the civilian... it'd been a while since he'd talked to her, and really that was the only reaso  for going to her spot. The guard wasn't the type to wear jewelry, and the only thing he wore from time to time, was a turquoise bracelet the Healer had given him on their second meeting. He got closer, winking at Melanie. "Hello darling! I can look around, but the prettiest little thing here is you..." he teased her.

Kadyn kissed back, he wasn’t intending to make anything out of this, but when his Alpha kissed him back, he couldn’t help but feel his cock twitch and before he knew it Ben was lifting him, ramming his cock through those tight muscles and he whined “Fuck! So good!” And this was so much better than the last 14 days.

“That’s it open up... I’m going to breed you good. I know how much that ass of yours has missed my cock.” He growled, smashing his boy against the wall as he continued to ram into him furiously.

Seth shuddered and squirmed against the wall. He was coming undone and it was impossible for him to keep up with a wolf like Ben. He tried reaching his hand back to the client, “Please, Ben…I-It’s starting to hurt”. He could feel his climax coming, but he also felt the pain from how rough the other man was being. 

“I see...” Ben switched tactic... the boy should’ve have complained... his thrusts became normal strength wise, but he started to piston the boy’s prostate fast. “Like that slut?!” he growled, so ready to fill him with hot cum.
