My Atypical Wolf (BL) Chapter 218

Chapter 218: Not Move on

Christian walked back to his office to get an idea of his pending work. Just because there is a chance of attack doesn’t an he will get to bail on his responsibilities. Ever since his Dad stepped down from the duty, it’s all up to him. He was starting to see why his Dad was cranky. The amount of work required was insane.

He was an hour into the system when he heard a few knocks on the door. He raised his head to spot a familiar figure looking at him, “Hi, I see you are not avoiding anymore” Christian snickered.

“I wasn’t avoiding you” Sebastian cleared his throat.

Christian tilted his head in a ‘Co on’ way. “Yeah, okay, I was a little. But that was after you forgot that you drank and...” Sebastian hesitated.

“Confessed to you?” Christian helped him out.

“Yeah,” Sebastian nodded.

CHristian nodded along with him before folding his hands and asking, “Does it really bother you that much? That I had feelings for you”?

.....

“You don’t anymore?” Sebastian asked him instead.

“Not as strongly, no. But I am trying my best to get over it” Christian mumbled. “But let’s not change the subject” He sighed. “Does it bother you”?

“It bothers that I don’t return them,” Sebastian admitted honestly. “One-sided crushes are tough... and I hate that you-re... stuck with ”

“I don’t,” Christian snorted. “I an you can be a d**k once in a while but other than that you are a great guy”.

“Thanks for the complint” Sebastian offered him a sarcastic smile.

“You’re welco” Christian played along and gave him a devious smirk in return.

Sebastian shook his head before saying, “I thought you ran away from . That was until I saw Ashton.”

“Okay, I might be a little wary and careful at tis, but I am not a coward. Why would I run away from my own pack”? Christian scowled.

“I dunno...” Sebastian trailed off. “You have ways of being unexpected. You confessed to out of the blue.” he shrugged and raised his hand. “Rember this scar? You gave it to ... when I was just trying to help you”.

“Okay, first of all, that scar was not entirely my fault. My rutty wolf was the one who went berserk. And secondly, I thought I made it up to you by licking your face.” Christian looked back at him from his computer with a classic smirk to witness the wide eyes of Sebastian.

“You really say anything don’t you. What happened to the ‘plan your every move’ kind of guy”? Sebastian asked.

“Well, I have recently learned that being yourself has its own advantages. So I am not gonna suppress everything” Christian admitted.

“Good” Sebastian smiled. “You shouldn’t’

Before their conversation could proceed further there was another knock at the door, which turned out to be none other than Mr. Wrisberg. “I heard you are back son” He mumbled. “I called your mother as well, she will be here soon” he inford his son.

“I should probably leave,” Sebastian prompted but Mr. Wrisberg raised his hand to stop him.

“You can stay, this won’t take long”. Mr. Wrisberg cleared his throat before asking, “I heard there was a potential attack?” He sighed. “What was that about? What went down at the Ice Fountain pack?”

Christian hesitated for a mont before telling him everything. He didn’t forget to ntion the mory lapse of Ashton, especially when he knew how disappointed Mr. Wrisberg was of Ashton. By the ti he was done both Mr. Wrisberg and Sebastian were conflicted.

“So this Riley, he is related to the Cornwells. Are you sure he didn’t have ulterior motives?” Mr. Wrisberg asked.

“Not that I could find. He was actually helpful”. Christian smiled.

“Good. Why don’t you contact him and get the status update?” Mr. Wrisberg.

“He didn’t want his pack leader to find out that I left, which is why we didn’t exchange contact” Christian mumbled, he pursed his lips before saying, “But, l might be able to help with that”.

“She has a friend there,” Mr Wrisberg murmured.

“I’ll tell her to check the available intels” Murmured Christian and linked her.

[Did you hear back from your friend at the Ice Fountain at all] he asked.

[As a matter of fact I did. She was really upset that I showed you the picture. She is apparently under trouble now.] lanie took a pause before she mumbled, [I think she might be facing so significant consequences]

[Then I suppose there is no way she would tell you what the Alpha Plans are?] Christian asked the question he very well knew the answer to.

[I don’t think she can. She doesn’t even know what is going on. I checked with her the first thing after you arrived.] lanie inford him. [Although I doubt she would let us know even if she had any idea.] lanie sighed. Letting go of the link, Christian inford his father of the sa.

“I see” Mr. Wrisberg sighed. “I guess we have no choice but to wait it out then.” Christian nodded at his father as well. “Oh another thing, I was hoping to hold the official ceremony for handing over the pack to you. It’s high ti I stepped down”.

“But... I don’t have a mate yet” Christian mumbled. “Is it even possible to be the pack Alpha without a Luna”?

“There are a lot of things that make you stronger, not just having a mate. You risked your life for your little brother, and I know you will do your best for this pack. You don’t need a mate to make you care. You are well versed with taking care of others.” Mr. Wrisberg announced. “Once this conundrum is over, let’s make it official.”

“You really believe I am ready?” Christian asked. He would be lying if he said hearing those words didn’t make him feel elated at all. In fact the nod given by Mr. Wrisberg made him smile as well.

“You have been ready a long ti ago” Mr. Wrisberg affird. “I’ll see you later then. Your mum is here” Mr. Wrisberg smiled before he disappeared.

“I know I have been in this pack for like a decade, but I swear I have never seen him smile” Sebastian mumbled, with a hint of surprise in his voice. After a mont he finaly felt relieved that Mr. Wrisberg was gone.

“I have... when I was young” He mumbled. “Having these responsibilities made him like that”. Christian sighed. “And I can imagine why, the responsibility is insane. I literally have to look over everything.” Christian sighed. “I think I need to go now, I need these signatures”.

“Yeah, you do that. Just don’t beco grumpy like your Dad”. Sebastian teased.

“I am not promising anything,” Christian shrugged and vanished leaving Sebastian alone in the office.

“And, can you not move on yet”? He mumbled while looking out at the empty hallway. He knew it was hopeless wishing it, if anything he needed to do sothing about it. What he didn’t know was that Christian forgot sothing and was on his way back when he heard Sebastian say those words.
