Liam nodded slowly. āYeahā¦Iām..Iām in more control now. I can focus on myself, I can focus on Colinā¦ā he said, smiling a little. When Peter touched him he felt a wave of relief; the Alpha comforting him helped. He felt a little more relaxed by Peterās touch; he believed it to be because he was an Omega and Peter was an Alpha. It was a calming factor and despite the fact that Liam wasnāt Peterās beta, or in his pack. It helped him a bit. He took a deep breath and nodded.
No more chains sounded good, he hated being locked up on the full moon. Full control over his own body and his powers sounded even better. He could fight but being able to control himself, to not be afraid of himself any more. He needed to be trained. He needed this control. Even more so he didnāt want Colin to see this side of him. He didnāt want to hurt the druid. He wouldnāt let himself. āGoodā¦I want to be trainedā¦I want controlā¦I want not to hurt people I donāt mean tooā¦ā he said. āI donāt want to hurt Colin, and I donāt want him to see this part of me.ā
Liam sighed and nodded slowly. Peter was right and Liam knew it. After everything that Theo had done. That monster was his brother. āHow could he do that to me?ā he asked shaking his head. āHe could have told meā¦he ruined everything for me in Beaconā¦ā he said, his voice cracking slightly; a tear running down his cheek. āAm I really safe hereā¦?ā he asked, more so to himself but he wouldnāt turn down an answer.
The alpha could sense the relief in the omega, giving a soft smile.Ā āItās easier to focus the more you think, isnāt it?ā he asked, tilting his head knowingly.Ā āI know thereās not much I can do, since youāre an omega, but youāre still Colinās boyfriend, so Iām obliged to at least try to help you; i helps a little that Iām an alpha. An alphaās presence naturally soothes an omegaās.ā That, and of course there was the fact that he intended on waiting and hoping Liam picked him as an alpha in due time. He wasnāt going to force or rush anyone, or even bring up the topic. For now, he was fine just keeping an eye on him when Colin couldnāt.Ā
āTraining isnāt going to be an easy task, pup.ā he said.Ā āBut I can tell your serious. So weāll start this weekend. Iāll let Colin know youāre up for learning how to control it. Although I doubt heād be scared to see you wolfed out. Heās resilient and damn accepting of our world. Namely because heās a part of it.ā He smiled reassuringly.Ā āColin wonāt get hurt, I doubt you could do that even if youād lost all sense of your human side. Our anchors are strong like that, we canāt hurt what is most precious to us. I speak from experience, so trust me on that.ā Heād been entirely insane, out for blood and death and vengeance, and yet he couldnāt focus any anger or rage on Chris; and in turn, Allison. Partly because they werenāt involved, of that he knew. Then there was a point in that the girl smelled similar enough to Chris that Peterās focus was short-circuited because at the time, he couldnāt understand the full power of his love for the other, slightly younger adult. He had cried when Allison died, not because she was close to him, but because he could almost sense how hurt Chris was at the loss of his daughter. And your mate being in pain was worse than losing a pack member by far; especially once you admitted they were your mate.
Peter gave a light frown.Ā āPerhaps, in his own way, your brother wanted to have power to protect you. I was clouded by that once.ā Of course, he had the power heād always known he should have had, not to mention his mate and at least some of his remaining family, so his more homicidal tendencies werenāt as strong these days. Peter credited Chris with much of that good factor.Ā āHe doesnāt know how to show affection like others; we donāt know what the Dread Doctors did to him while they had him.ā He explained.Ā āI do know he shows serious regret. Heās not here to hurt anyone, or kill. He just wants to be in your life; but I told him that would take time. Iāve been where he is; trying to be close to family that hates me for my past. He can just...be very stubborn, which I feel is a trait your bloodline shares greatly. But he seems to understand that between what he did in Beacon, as well as Colin and I, he needs to stand down until youāre willing to let him start making amends.ā He watched the young wolf calmly.Ā āEverything about what happens around you is your choice now, Liam. Lover, family, everything. Colin and I will keep you safe no matter what.ā
