Part 3
"GREEKS!?!" At Shadows exclamation one of the wolves from the main room pokes her head in the kitchen "Everything ok Alpha?" I smile at her concern "Yes Eve, I'm just telling Shadow here about my home" She smiles at Shadow, "you should feel honored, most people have to be here for a few years before Seeker tells them that story." She nods in my direction and ducks back out.
Calming himself Shadow starts again "Greeks? But that was over 2000 years ago wasn't it?" I shrug "say what you will about them, but they sure knew how to party. But I'm not Greek."
He takes a bite of his food, his hunger finally taking hold of him, in between bites he keeps his questions coming "Ok, so you have been around a long time, just how long? And where are you from?"
As I watch him eat a smile tugs at my lips, he even looks good when he eats.... Damn. "well as for how old I really am, I don't know for sure, just that it is over 3000 years, and I am from Atlantis."
Shadow just stares at me, his mouth hanging open a piece of sandwich stuck on one of his teeth. I just smile at him till he can get control again. Eventually he starts trying to talk again "At.... Atlantis?! As in the island, Atlantis? The city that sank in the ocean, Atlantis? That Atlantis?" "Yes that Atlantis" "wow....."
"Yeah it was something else." The timer on the oven goes off, and yips and howls can be heard coming from around the house in response, followed by a stampede of wolves filing up the dining room. Smiling I turn to Shadow "but that is a story for another time, and it is dinner time. Why don't you go and grab a seat at the table, food will be out shortly" I watch him as he heads for the table..... God he has a nice ass.
The rest of him is not bad either.
..........................................
Ever seen a pack of wolves at dinner time? Well you probably don't want to, it is not for the faint of heart, and they way my pack was acting you would think they haven't eaten in a week, let alone that morning at breakfast. Only good thing about it is there is never any left-over's in this house, but then our food bill is a bit on the high side, fortunately most of our meat is caught by us from the forest, nothing is better on a spring night than a nice piece of venison........
Through most of dinner I found myself watching Shadow more than my plate, and I am convinced more than a few pieces of my meal disappeared down mouths other than mine, their lucky I was preoccupied. After dinner I left the table to be cleaned by the omegas while I took Shadow on a tour of the rest of the house.
"Well Shadow I have told you a bit about myself, I think its only fair I found out something about you, so where are you from?" When I start asking him about himself I notice Shadow stiffen just a bit for a second. "Well, I come from the north." "Really? I didn't realize there were still any packs that way, I thought most had moved or died off." He looks around a little nervous "well most have, all but one anyway." "So yours is the last pack then?" He rubs his left arm a little as he stops to look at a painting we were walking buy. "uh, their the last, but they're not mine..... not anymore."
Hoping he is willing to talk about it some more I step up beside him and look at the painting with him "You do something they didn't like?"
"You could say that......"
"Mind if I ask what it was?"
He just stands there for a few moments silently staring at the painting but no longer really seeing it. After a bit he lets out a sigh and looks down. "They drove me out because...... I like guys......"
Hearing him say those words made my heart jump for joy and it was all I could do not to jump as well, I manage to keep my cool though and just respond quietly. "oh, I see."
After a few more seconds of silence he turns and heads back towards the main floor to leave speaking softly. "Well I guess now that you know, you don't want me around. I'll just grab my things and leave you alone...."
Before he can get a more than a couple steps away I reach out and gently grab his arm "And who said we didn't want you around?"
"I just told you I like guys, my home pack nearly killed me for it, and every pack I have met since has driven me away, why would you be any different?"
"Well for one we don't care about things like that here, after all there are several wolves here who like people of the same gender" Hearing this his ears perk up and he turns to look at me with a bit of wonder in his eyes.
"Really who?"
"Well there is Eve and her mate Tabatha; they came together when they were driven from their home pack."
"Really? I wouldn't have thought she was." He looks me in the eyes and a small smile is showing on his muzzle, from the looks of it, the first real one he has had in a long time. "Are they the only ones?"
"No, there is one other here....."
His smile spreads a little more as he realizes that he won't be forced to leave just because he likes guys and will be accepted for who he is here. And I have to admit, it looks really good on him. "Who is it?"
Smiling myself I lean forward and lick the tip of his nose showing him my attraction to him "Me"
..........................................
I just stand there smiling at him as his jaw hangs open in shock over finding out that not only am I gay, but at what I just did. With a small chuckle I use a finger to gently close his mouth. "I wouldn't leave your mouth hanging open like that, it will gather dust." He manages to hold his mouth shut for a moment before his brain starts working again and questions begin to form, only now he cant get them out right.
"You?.... But... your?.... I thought?..... but you're the alpha?.... who?.... I mean.....uh....."
I put a finger on his lips while letting out a small chuckle of my own. "Why don't you focus on one question and go from there ok?"
He nods and I remove my finger to let him speak. "Your Gay?
I nod, "Yes I am."
"But you're the Alpha?"
"Again, Yes"
"But I thought Alphas had to be straight, that an Alpha could never be gay?!?"
"Well in most packs that may be true. But remember, I created this pack myself, so what does it matter what other packs think."
He stands there for a second thinking. "So the rest of your pack knows? And they don't care?"
I grin "Of course they know, and no they don't care. Any wolves that come here who have a problem with it don't usually stay long. We don't force them to leave unless they cause trouble, but if they don't get over it, they usually find another place to live."
"Wow, that's so cool. It's great you created a place where wolves like us can be accepted and......." His face goes slack again as a thought crosses his mind. "You licked me?!?!"
This time I can't help but laugh at his expression. "Yes Shadow, I did." I quickly stop and look him in the eyes. "You're ok with it right?"
"Uh, well... yeah I guess... but don't you have.... I mean, isn't there some one that you like?"
"Yes there is someone that I like, I actually met him recently in fact."
"Well, don't you think he would have a problem with you showing me affection like that?" He starts rubbing his arm again and looks down.
"Well I don't know if he will or not."
"Are you going to tell him?" He starts to shake just a little as his tail wraps around his leg showing concern and fear.
I smile softly at him and lift his chin so he is looking at me again. "He already knows, why should I tell him again?"
"HE KNOWS?!?!?! Where is he?" He starts looking around in near panic till I grab both sides of his face with my hands and hold him still.
"He's right in front of me" I lean in and kiss him on the lips silencing his questions again. A moment later I break the kiss and smile at him. "It's you Shadow. I like you."
