My Atypical Wolf (BL)

Chapter 291

Chapter 291: A Tracker

“Caleb”! Sue chirped with joy. “Well, good to see you back.” She smiled and welcomed Caleb. “Anyways, I was about to go out, I have some stuff to pick up, but Ashy will keep you company.” Sue smirked and left.

After that, Caleb headed inside and noticed Ashton munching on some food, so without much ado, Caleb joined. “God, I am so hungry.” Caleb groaned. Thanks to the limited food, and Caleb’s hunger, Ashton barely got anything on the plate. But Ashton wasn’t complaining. While Ashton had the whole day to rest, Caleb didn’t even have that. Caleb simply had to deal with everyone and was most definitely exhausted.

“Did you figure out who the victim is?” Ashton asked.

“Nuh-uh” Caleb shook his head. “We will get the DNA results tomorrow, which I plan on running through our pack database as well, in case we have a match.”

“Your pack keeps a record of DNA?” Ashton was surprised to hear that.

“Of course.” Caleb shrugged.

“I never got any DNA taken off of me.” hearing that from Ashton’s mouth, Caleb let out a classic snort. “What?” Of course Ashton grew suspicious.

.....

“Bold of you to assume they didn’t. In fact, after you returned I had samples taken from you... during your sleep so in case you ever disappear again, I have some means of tracing you.”

“Wow, so much for Privacy” Ashton scoffed. “I am surprised you didn’t put a tracker on me already”. He shook his head, causing Caleb to pause and simply stare at him. “Don’t tell me you put a tracker on me?” Ashton asked with dread.

“Not yet.” Caleb affirmed.

“Not yet”? Ashton was baffled.

“I mean, after you disappeared last night, I think a tracker would be best,” Caleb snickered.

“Dude, no. Come on. Please, no”! Ashton resisted.

“Now... where should I put it?” Caleb wondered out loud, half teasing his mate and half being serious.

“Oh, come on”! Ashton groaned.

“Got it.” and with that Caleb approached Ashton. Not sure of whether Caleb had a tracker on him at that moment or not Ashton made a run for it. He went straight into his room, but before he could lock the door and lock himself inside, Caleb slipped in.

Ashton pulled up a pillow in his hands and tried to prevent Caleb from getting to him. Meanwhile, like the classic chase of Tom and Jerry, Caleb tried his level best to sneak on Ashton. Somehow this entire situation was too humorous to not take full advantage of it. Or at least that’s what Caleb thought.

“Caleb stop it”! Ashton warned.

“Or what”? Caleb teased. “You are gonna attack me”? He challenged. “Please do so, then I can install the tracker right now.”

“Why do you have a tracker on you”? Ashton was baffled.

“After the turn of recent events, I decided to get them. In case I need them. I brought some extra and I plan on using them on Connor and the girls as well.” Caleb shrugged. He had no such plans, not until now. But somehow it seemed like a logical excuse to have a tracker on him, so that he could convince Ashton that he was indeed carrying a tracker. He wasn’t.

Ashton on the other hand tried his level best to swat away Caleb in a manner that won’t allow Caleb to get enough access to put that tracker on him. Finally, when nothing else worked, Ashton decided to do the reverse of his original plan, escape the room and lock Caleb in here, until Ashton was sure Caleb wouldn’t put a tracker on him.

Unfortunately for him, before he could run out a giant white wolf landed up on top of him, while the upper half of Ashton’s body hit the bed. Caleb had shifted mid-jump and now he was laughing in his wolf form having gotten a jump on him. He was mated to the fastest wolf indeed. Ashton sighed and laughed as well.

[Gotya] in the link, Caleb declared. Ashton smirked and pulled himself up in the bed, but he still didn’t manage to get out of Caleb’s grip at all.

Ashton chuckled and replied in the link itself, [Did you really think I believed you have a tracker with you?] Ashton asked with a smirk.

[Wait, you saw in the link?] Caleb was the one who was taken aback in the moment.

“You wanted to play, so I let ya.” Ashton winked and raised his hand to caress the white fur encircling his mate’s neck and head. It felt so good, especially after the day he had that Caleb didn’t bother to shift back into his human form and let Ashton do his thing, further leaning onto the touch himself.

Before Caleb realized, he got comfortable, laying on top of Ashton and drifted off to sleep. Given how tired Caleb must have been, it was no miracle that he drifted off so easily. Ashton on the other hand didn’t stop with his hand’s movements and instead he kept brushing the fur with his hand in a soothing manner.

As he stared at his mate, sleeping peacefully in his wolf form he realized how much he must have scared Caleb last night, enough to lose his sleep. Ashton only wished to figure out why it happened? Why did he suddenly feel all of that? “Alvaro” he mumbled softly, “Did you find something from our time in the north”? He sighed.

He didn’t really expect an answer, at least not immediately, but following a sharp pain in his head he heard a deeper version of his own voice say, “yes”

Ashton blinked a few times as he was certain he saw red. It wasn’t completely red as usual (he sees red, how people see everything ‘black’) he noticed everything else had a reddish hue to it. How was he so sure in this darkness? Because no matter how dark, his mate’s fur was always white as snow, except this time it had a pinkish hue.

“Yes, it’s me. Alvaro.” the voice confirmed. “They are here Ashton. They are here for us... and for our family.” he mumbled.
