Topher stood in front of the mirror, dabbing the cut on his lip with a paper towel as it became stained with his blood. The brown eyes looking back at him seemed hollow, showing no sign of pain from the inflicted wound he received from his drunk father.
The sound of screaming could be heard in the other room, arguing over the stupidest things that Topher didn’t even understand. Just as the young man managed to get his lip to stop bleeding, he heard the bathroom door slam open, his brown eyes widening as he backed up against the wall.


“Mom…mom you have to stop hi-”

“How can I do that? He’s a impulsive liar and a drunk. Maybe if you just stopped trying so hard to be the hero you’d be able to accept that.”
Lighting a cigarette, Topher watched as his mom patched up the bruise on her arm with make-up while smoking, her clothes looking rather clean and fresh compared to the ones she had on earlier.

“Are you going somewhere?” Topher asked as he slowly stepped away from the wall.

Glancing at her son, the woman let out a scoff of disapproval before grabbing her purse at the side of the sink. “None of your damn business.”

Just as she left, Topher sighed and peeked out of the bathroom. He had to get out….leave the house while his dad was drunk and his mom was gone. It was too dangerous to stay at home alone with him, he had already broken his arm being pushed down the stairs, and he wasn’t planning on getting himself into anymore problems.
Once he thought it was safe, Topher slowly stepped out of the bathroom, his heart beating out of his chest as he made his way downstairs, getting his shoes on as quickly as he could and opening the front door. Just as he heard steps following behind him, Topher stumbled outside, his eyes wide with fear. Looking in every direction, the young man looked at the bushes and trees, heading straight in the direction of the forest before his father could try and follow.

Zeke looked at the moon, his nose sniffing slowly as it took long drags of scent from the air. It was close to the full moon, and his sences were heightened to the degree of wolf already. It was cloudy today and it made Zeke sigh.

Mike who was leaning on a tree nearby watched his Alpha closely. As the older male sniffed one last time he saw him freeze. Blinking Mike walked to his Alpha's side "Zeke?"

Zeke didnt respond right away he just made hurried sniffs as if trying to pin point something, soon he did and fallowed it, leaving a worried Beta to fallow after his Leader to make sure it wasn't an attack.

Zeke soon stoped, hiding well he pulled Mike behind a few trees and watched a Lith boy run into the woods. His eyes shown fear and that made his stomach turn. He fallowed the boy as Mike stayed behind, now knowing what was wrong. He smiled at his Alphas disappearing back as he fallowed the boy.

It felt like hours before Topher started to slow down. He was panting, his breathing coming out so quick he could barely catch his breath. Looking back, he slowed down, pressing himself against a tree and breathing harshly against it while he peeked around it, seeing if his dad followed.
After a few minutes of silence, Topher collapsed down against the tree, sitting down and putting his hands up to his mouth, trying to muffle his quick breaths. He didn’t think of what would happen after he ran into the forest. Where was he anyways? He didn’t even keep track of the turns he took or where he was headed.

“Shit…” Topher looked around, slowly standing back up and looking at the sky. It was almost completely dark outside, the light subsiding to the point where Topher would be completely blind to see anything in the matter of several minutes.
Now he was scared of being alone, lost in the wooded area without any light or water, without an ounce of direction. Instantly Topher froze, his paranoia peeking as he thought the worst. He might just die out here…but would it be better than dying by the hands of his own father? Topher contemplated it and decided he had a better chance to survive out here then to try to go back home. His odds of survival were sadly even greater in the wilderness.

Zeke watched the boy infront of him, his instincts telling him this way the one. Moving silently in the bush as this was his habbitat. His eyes locked onto his target he waited till he knew the boy couldn't see and mde his move. His speed that of his wolfblood causins had as he grabbed the boy. He held the smaller boy tight "I won't hurt you, but you need to be quiet!" Zeke said as he covered the boys mouth so that he couldn't scream.

Leaning against a tree and looking around for a place he could go to for temporary shelter, Topher was completely shocked when he felt the sudden grasp of someone. Releasing a surprised gasp, he was about to make a sound but felt the persons hand cover his mouth.
A human? Topher’s wide fearful eyes looked up, hearing the mans voice and seeing him standing there. It wasn’t his father, right away he felt relief wash over him. But why was he grabbing him? Who was he anyways? Without much of a struggle, Topher felt his stress rising, unsure what was going on and what to do. Should he escape? Or…try to? He doubted it, mostly because the man grabbing onto him had a very strong grip on him.

After a few seconds, Topher nodded in acknowledgment over not screaming. He couldn’t risk it anyways, especially if his father was still looking out for him.

Zeke smiled and picked the boy up bridal style. His smile was that of a victory. His feet moving fast as he carried the boy to his house. He moved fast, running with unhuman speed as he dodged trees and bushes. once home he brought the lith boy to his room, his posture was abit stiff as he hadnt claimed his mate yet. "This is your new home." He stated as he offered a grin to the boy. As he somewhat relaxed he finally noticed his Mate's lip. "Who hurt you?!" He growled as he gripped Tophers chin as he examined his lip with anger and care in his eyes.

[RedRose4]

Topher could barely register what was happening until it was already occurring. The man was holding him, so easily that he was slightly shocked, even more so when he began to easily run through the forest without even hitting a single branch or tripping over a rock. He seemed so….agile, so inhuman.
The house that he was brought into was large, easily able to hold a large number of people. Although Topher was brought into a particular room, still slightly anxious and unsure as to what was going on. He was nearly in dazed from it all.
New home? Topher looked at the person in front of him with furrowed eyebrows. “My home?” he whispered in disbelief before then feeling of his warm fingers lifting his chin up to look at his lip. He closed his eyes, ashamed of any injuries he received from his own flesh and blood. “My…my father.” Topher answered.

[AzumeK]

Zekes inner wolf was in a rage at the fact its mate was hurt. "Your father? You will never be near him again, if he touches you I'll kill him!" he growled and pulled the boy close "No one will hurt my Mate, never again!" he added as hisnwolf came out some as he held the boy close. His eyes were going abit gold, showing how close his wolf was to the surface. His arms strong yet tender as they held his mate, his chest somewhat going fast as he panted trying to calm his wolf.

[RedRose4]

Looking up in shock at the male, Topher frowned and seemed incredibly worried and perplexed. Why did he care so much about him? But as the word ‘mate’ came up, he looked even more surprised. “Your m-mate?” he said out loud, as if the words were so foreign he had to test them out with his own tongue.
But then Topher noticed something was wrong…the other handsome male holding him seemed to be angry, very angry. His eyes changed and something seemed to shift.
Topher felt his anxiety rise as he put his hand up, gently touching the mans cheek in a curious manner before whispering. “I‘m.…my name is Topher. Thank you, for saving me.” He stated softly, as though he wasn’t sure what to say. He was in the arms of a stranger, the best he could do is introduce himself.

[AzumeK]

The touch seemed to act like a switch and the wolf in Zeke calmed "Topher? I like it. I am Zeke." He said softly with a smile, nuzzling into the touch. "And you dont have to thank me, its my duty as your mate." He explained softly. His eyes still golden blue but they were soft and full of care.
