Chapter 11 - Becoming a wolf
Episode 3.
*The following day, Adrian spent avoiding not only Andy, but also Sam.
It wasn't that things had turned awkward at all.
But Adrian himself had turned.... more awkward than usual.
There were so many unanswered questions circling his head.
So he tried his best to bury himself in dirty car engines, pretending the world around him didn't exist for a moment.
It was late evening as a car drove up to his lot, and someone got out, leaving the engine on.*
Adrian: *He sighed deep and dried his hands in an old cloth, expecting Andy to come through the gate any moment* Not fucking now *he mumbled to himself and sipped a good amount of his glass of Whiskey, hoping it would somehow keep his hormones down, but coughed surprised when he realized the person stepping out of the shadows and into his garden, wasn't Andy at all*
Evan: *He smiled friendly* I'm sorry to drop by unannounced...
Adrian: *He sighed irritated and drank the rest of his Whiskey* What do you want? If it's about Felix-
Evan: No, it's my car... the engine is making a somewhat whistling sound... it's not constant, but I can't seem to figure what it is.
I mean I know my way around an engine, but I'm not a professional..
Adrian: *he sighed soft, pouring himself another glass* Neither am I...... I'm self taught....
Evan: *He sighed soft, in a way like just before someone gives up* Alright, I can take a hint, I'm sorry I bothered you *he smiled apologizing and was just about to turn around and disappear out the gate*
Adrian: Fine... bring her in! I'll take a look *he sighed soft and forced a smile*
Evan: *He nodded confirming* Thank you.
Adrian: *About 20 minutes later, he had located the problem and fixed it, closing the hood of Evan's car* Alright, that should be it.
Evan: *He nodded soft* Thank you.... I better get out of your way then
Adrian: *He sighed deep* How is he?
Evan: He's at the clinic... you know, where the clan lives.
Adrian: *He nodded soft*
Evan: You know, he's being Felix, solving his heart ache the Felix way *he sighed soft* I'm sorry, I know that's not very helpful, and I wish I had a less egoistic son for you.
Adrian: *He frowned deep as Sam instantly popped to his mind, quickly grabbing his Whiskey bottle, and mumbled something that was barely
words, before he quickly marched off in the direction of a table and chairs few meters from the car, sitting down on one, sipping the Whiskey*
Evan: Alright? *He stuck his hands in his pockets, contemplating if he should follow or not, then took a deep breath and slowly walked in the direction of Adrian* You know, I'm not exactly the biggest talker either, I'm a lot like Sam, I talk when I find it important, otherwise I am pretty quiet. A man of few words, such as yourself.
But.... you kinda look like someone that has a lot on your mind... so if you wanna talk, I'm a quite good listener.
*He smiled in an encouraging way* Or you tell me to beat it, and I will...
Adrian: *He sighed deep and nodded at the opposite chair* Be my guest...
Evan: *He nodded soft and sat down on the other chair, lighting a cig, not saying anything, to leave room for Adrian to speak, ifhe wished*
Adrian: *He sat quiet for a few minutes, just starring at the garden, before he lit a cig and stood up* Do you want anything to drink?
I think most of all I just need..... *he frowned deep* ..... a drinking buddy
Evan: *He chuckled soft and shrugged lightly* Well I guess I could drink a couple and still be able to drive safely...
Adrian: *He nodded confirming* I'll be right back!
Evan: *He chuckled amused as he observed the awkward grump head towards his kitchen to pick up alcohol*
*2 hours and way too many fast emptied drinks later, Adrian was full on ranting about Felix*
Adrian: I mean he KNOWS how I feel, yet he can't even tone it down!!!
Before him I was straight! Yet I fucking went that far with him!
Having sex with a ma- *he frowned deep as he realized he had been ranting non stop for as long as they had been sitting there* I'm sorry *he frowned even deeper and sipped a beer bottle, a deep sigh escaping him*
Evan: May I say something?
Adrian: *He waved the bottle in a 'go on' way and lit a cig, taking a big drag*
Evan: Look, I completely understand you, and absolutely agree.
If it was me, if I was in the same position as you, I wold have broken it off too.
It took me years to make peace with Andy's activities... and they do sometimes still.... well... they do still get to me, not sometimes...
all the time... but I do also know that for Andy it's a matter of his health.
So I can choose to "look away" for the sake of his health.
However, since you and him... he seems to go out less... well it's usually like that when he finds someone new... so it's just a matter of time, before he falls back into the hole.
Anyway, sometimes you have to deal with less romantic sides of your partner, because they might have special needs.
It isn't like that in Felix's case however, and I feel as if we had already had this conversation before, or you have definitely heard it from other lips as well, so I am sure you by now know, you didn't make a cruel choice.
Felix needs some time to grow up, and become the man he's supposed to be.
Sam and the others grew up a lot faster.
Well, everyone except Oscar, naturally.
So, my advice is, give him time, and if you still wanna be with him after he has grown, you two will still have your mate bond, and may be able to work something out.
But for now, a lot of other very important and heavy things are going on in your life, and that's where you need to put your focus.
Being a wolf now, and on top of that a Sigma, comes with big responsibilities, Adrian.
You should be focusing on that, not my son.... if not for anything else, then at least for the fact that it might cost someone their life, if you don't learn to control your wolf.
But you already know that.
*He sighed soft*
Adrian: *He sighed as well, and sipped his beer, taking a big drag of the cig*
I know you are right, I just can't help but feel as if I always have 500 unanswered questions in my head, and no one is willing to fully answer them....
I feel as if most of the time, I get half answers.... so how am I supposed to learn, if I always feel like important info is being left out?
Evan: Alright...shoot! I'll see if I can answer any of it...
Adrian: *He glared drunkenly at Evan, tying to decide if this was a good idea or not... but then again, most ideas seem like good ideas once you have had enough alcohol* How long did it take before you had your wolf under control?
Evan: About 6 months.... but I also trained very hard with Akin almost every day.
In his opinion, I was exceptionally fast.
Adrian: *He grunted soft* So I have to expect 6 moons like this!? *he pointed at the almost full moon hanging above them*
Evan: *His eyes got wider as he realized what Adrian's question was actually about* ohh.... *he chuckled a bit awkwardly* no...
I mean... it took me nearly a year to control THOSE urges....
Adrian: *His frown reached new levels of grump*
Evan: But it doesn't have to mean you would take that long... it's different for each individual....
Adrian: *he forced a smile and took another drag of his cig* Well for now.... I'm a level of horny I have never ever even dreamed of!
Evan: *He nodded soft* I remember.
Adrian: So you don't feel it at all now?
Evan: *He sighed soft and looked at the moon* Oh, I feel it... I just... control it so I feel it way less... but that doesn't meanI don't feel it at all. I certainly do!
*He sighed soft and sipped his glass of Vodka*
Adrian: *He sighed deep and staid quiet a while, clearly having a lot of other questions circling in his head*
Evan: ....... you can ask *his voice was warm and inviting, as he spoke*
Adrian: *He sighed deep, once again letting the alcohol do the talking*
Andy mentioned that wolves can grow... in their human form?
Evan: ........... yes... that's true... we can also partially shift... let's say... to have claws in human form, or fangs... or...
*he took a deep slow breath* wolf.... pri.... vates *mumbling into his Vodka before he emptied the glass*
Adrian: *He looked curiously at Evan* And how long did that take you to learn?
Evan: *He cleared his throat* about 6-7 months.. it came shortly after I learned how to control my wolf.... but I have only done it few times... I prefer to be human, when I am human... and wolf when I am wolf...
Adrian: But you do grow in human form?
Evan: Sometimes.... if the mood is for it... it's usually when things gets extra hot.... and you just wanna *he felt a heat rise to his head, his cheeks blushing as he felt the alcohol warm his whole body, making him slightly aroused by the conversation*
Adrian: *He nodded slow... he definitely wanted to......*
Evan: *He cleared his throat again* But... as mentioned before, it's up to each individual how fast they learn... it also depends a lot on what is important to you... if stuff like that is important to you, chance are you will learn faster, simply because it's of your interest.
Adrian: *He nodded slow* Makes sense! *a sudden burp sounded from him, and he frowned questioning as he looked at Evan* Are you hungry?
I feel like I could eat a cow! Mind if I go check if there's something in the freezer I can throw on the grill?
Evan: Uh... no... I don't have anything else to do tonight, I guess I could stay a bit longer, if you want?
Adrian: *He looked at Evan with slightly squinted eyes, and felt his dick twitch as he noticed just how much Evan reminded him of Sam*
Yeah uh *he cleared his throat and quickly got up* Be right back!
*He quickly hurried to the kitchen and opened the freezer, sticking his head inside, moaning soft as the cool air brushed against his face* Fuck *he whispered soft, taking a couple deep, slow breaths to calm down*
do all dreams not have internal organs or is that just Matthew? Like how much did Niall know about anatomy of humans? did Aurora have them? if not then how did she give birth? if you're a child of a dream and a dreamer what sort of genes do you have? like aren't you half dream half dreamer
I went to the wedding of an old childhood friend yesterday and I’m on my way back now. This trip is never ending...I’ve been on this train for almost six hours now and I’ve finished my book (Children of Blood and Bone was really good), done some work (finished my Star Wars arrangement for my brass band) and watched to episodes of „The Get Down“ (Also recommended) and now I’m bored. And I really don’t feel like sitting any longer but this train is quite full and I can’t just go for a walk 😬
Also, I already miss my little munchkin like crazy but I won’t see him for another couple of days since I’ll be on a trip to Denmark with my choir starting tomorrow. I really don’t know how I’ll cope. 🤐 I mean, I know that I chose to do this and that it is a great opportunity to take a break from mum life (especially since there are no breaks in the foreseeable future) but I just don’t want to go right now...😪
