Captive Of The Alpha
Chapter 94

The day had dawned sunny, ideal weather for enjoying a dip. Leoxi was leading the group, wagging his tail from side to side in his majestic black wolf form, just like his brother. Only the latter was trailing behind with Noa and Alan biting his ears trying to catch up.

-Children,” said Leoxi with a sigh, looking over his furry shoulder.

Seconds later he felt someone lightly biting his tail, not in a way to hurt him but like when a wolf wants attention. What he saw pleased him. Behind him was Rodrigo with the black speck in his mouth and he was walking with his head down.

Leoxi might smile if it wasn’t for the fact that he was in his wolf form which was quite a bit bigger than Rodrigo. The younger wolf had lately joined him on the various inspections through the pack and his company was pleasant. They even seemed to have more chemistry than their brothers. Perhaps because they both had a cool way of thinking.

And in between the two groups was Nicolas who was ultimately the one who supervised that his younger siblings were not so rough biting Hades. Noa had lost a molar tooth in her molt not long ago so she could bite without mediating her strength.

An hour’s walk later the six wolves arrived at what would be a small island paradise. A few trees and in the middle a small pond with a spring fountain.

-Wow, this is the life I deserve,” exclaimed Alan, transforming himself and running to jump into the lake.

-Alan,” shouted Nicolas at his action, “Don’t run…”.

-Hades transformed next to him and stroked the younger boy’s wolfish head, “Let them do what they want today. It’s a day to have fun. Tomorrow you can babysit them again.

-I’m not their babysitter,” Nicolas protested, his lips tightening as he transformed.

-Yeah, whatever you say,” Hade scoffed.

-Noa peeked out from behind Hades with a mischievous grin, revealing the gap in her tooth that had fallen out.

-I’ll show you who’s boss, puppy,” Nicolas grabbed his arm and put him over his shoulder only to walk over to the edge of the pond and…throw him in.

Hades laughed at the scene and even more when Nicolas was surprised from behind by Alan who had come out of the water and pushed him. Those three really were quite a case. But he was glad to have them in what had once been a very long monotonous life. Now he could say he was happy, completely happy.

And with a smile on his face he walked over to the pond and joined his children in having fun like he hadn’t had in years.

-Aren’t you going to join them,” Leoxi pulled his hair back once he was transformed. Behind him Rodrigo looked shy even in his wolf form.

The wolf knelt down in front of him and stroked his head affectionately.

-You shouldn’t force yourself but I think it’s a good time for you to share with your brothers and your new father, don’t you?

Rodrigo lowered his head further, not very convinced.

-Transform,” he asked. “Do it for me.

Rodrigo raised his head and nodded slowly. It wasn’t often that Loexi was so soft on him. They usually shared while they were running around in the packs and he had to admit that he had very well earned the title of Commander of this one. No wonder Hades trusted him so much.

Leoxi ruled with an iron fist. And whenever he was by his side, he always wondered if the wolf had a sensitive, even affectionate side. And that day was the first day he saw it.

Slowly he transformed, becoming just as naked as everyone else present, but for some reason he felt a little self-conscious and he didn’t know why. Yes, he was a young wolf who had come of age just like Nicolas, the difference being that with the training he had endured in his pack from which he could not escape, his musculature could be taken into account.

Of course, against the sinewy bodies of both Hades and Leoxi it was hardly significant, but for a young man it wasn’t bad at all. And apparently the wolf in front of him liked what was there because his eyes roamed over him and Rodrigo shivered.

Until they heard a voice call out to him.

-Hades pulled half of his torso from the surface of the pool and slicked back his freshly cut hair.

Leoxi looked over his shoulder at his brother and nodded with a faint smile.

-Let’s go,” she indicated to Rodrigo, offering her a hand and he hesitantly took it.

Leoxi closed her hand tightly against the puppy’s as if she didn’t want him to escape. If he knew that that was the only thing Rodrigo would do at that moment.

…

-I’m dead,” Alan said, sitting with his legs spread and leaning back on Nicolas, “This needs to be repeated more times. It was super-

-And we’ll bring Ma and Pris so they can have a good time too,” Noa followed his conversation.

Hades’ chest puffed out at his children’s opinions, glad that he had agreed to go with them. Next to him sat Leoxi. The head of a sleeping Rodrigo rested on his thigh, and he stroked his hair between his fingers.

-You’ve grown quite fond of him,” Hades said softly.

-I think he’s lacking,” his brother replied with a look in his eyes that Hades couldn’t decipher, “Even though he has his siblings and his mother and a new father, I think he needs extra support. I feel he is very emotionally affected. More than he wants to show us.

Hades looked at his eldest son and agreed with what his brother was saying. And it was true. Leoxi had suffered a lot and even though family relations had improved a lot he still seemed to suffer inside because of guilt. Even when he didn’t show it.

On that point his brother had always been the more perceptive of the two.

-Then I entrust him to you, Leoxi. I know I’ll leave him in good hands,” only Hades didn’t imagine that his words would be taken literally much later.
