My Atypical Wolf (BL)-Chapter 6

Caleb went to the match, but he was still not in his best form yet. When he heard the person who replaced him for the ongoing practice sessions was Ashton, he couldn’t help but feel a little bad for him.?It was his duty to begin with.

He was quite surprised when Ashton approached him the other day. With the unbothered attitude he keeps for most of the day here he never would have predicted that he would come to his rescue twice like this. It was lucky that he did the other day, but too bad he was a human, he did not realize how much his help meant to Caleb. This last week he barely slept at all. His dark circles were clearly visible. However that did not make him any less efficient. With him back on the team, they practiced the game even more seriously today. The team was glad to have him back. Ashton was an awesome player, but Caleb was their ace for a reason (which might be a bonus for his enhanced speed as an omega werewolf).

After the long match they finally decided to go and freshen up a bit before they went home. Caleb decided to treat the whole team as a way of apologizing for being absent for a long time. He was rich after all, coming from an Alpha family, which is why it was not a big deal for him.?All of them went to the nearby cafe to get some drinks and snacks.

“Guys order whatever you like, do not hesitate “. Caleb told and everyone cheered. Anyone who was present in the café but was not a member of the team gave them all kinds of looks. Everyone ordered one by one. Caleb decided to go last as he could pay for the coffee and for everyone else as well at the same time.

“Give me your strongest coffee”. He ordered to the person at the counter without even looking at him.

“You already look sleep deprived; you want to stay more awake”? Ashton asked him. Caleb looked up surprised at the voice of the other person. He nodded at him regardless and gave him a very tired smile. He had a lot to catch up on so he did not want to take rest just yet.

.....

On his way back to the seat he received a video call on his phone. He smiled when he read the name of the person who called him. “Hey, what’s up”? A girl on the other end asked him.

“You know the same old. I’m busy with my everyday schedule and all.” Caleb replied enthusiastically. He missed the person on the other end.

“You and your never ending responsibilities. I have good news by the way.” She smirks with enthusiasm.

“What?” Caleb eyes her suspiciously through the phone.

“I might be coming soon to see you. It’s not confirmed yet, but let’s see…” She trailed off.

“Wow, what’s the occasion?” Caleb asked her while he took his seat and adjusted himself carefully. Matt looked at him suspiciously, but remained quiet nonetheless.

“Well, I have a project for which I have to present at Brigemont University. If it goes successful, I might end up getting a scholarship there” She shared with great enthusiasm.

“That’s awesome K. Well, let’s meet up soon again, when you come to visit here”. After he was done talking to her Matt held his neck tightly and asked him suggestively. “Who was she? Never seen you talk to someone this sweetly before”.

“She is an old friend of mine, why do you ask?” Caleb after a bit of effort took his hand off him.

“No reason, how come you have never mentioned this friend of yours?” Matt kept giving him a suggestive look.

Caleb rolled his eyes at him before saying. “Fine, we dated once. Her name is Karolyn.” He ended up admitting the truth knowing that his friend will not give up otherwise.

“Whoo, tell us more” Matt continued to tease.

“There is nothing to tell, we dated for a summer when I went to live with my grandmother. We were really young back then. It was just a picnic at an amusement park”. Caleb shrugged. 𝘧𝒓e𝑒𝑤e𝙗𝚗o𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝐜𝐨ｍ

“Why did you guys break up? She seemed nice. Was she a…”? Matt lowered his voice. “...a human?”

Caleb shook his head before he said, “Alpha. We had our reason, nothing that concerns you”. Caleb gave him a stern look?before he finally shut up.

When they met for the first time Caleb was still pretty young. He did make a girlfriend, but did not realize what having a girlfriend meant. Like a child’s attention span, their relationship was not very long lasting.

He was glad that they broke up though. He never wants to be in a relationship where he cannot be honest with the other person. To this day Karolyn still thinks he is an Alpha as well. He feels bad about deceiving her. Even after they broke up they were pretty close. After his grandmother passed away he never saw her again until recently when she found him on social media. They parted on good terms so they rekindled their friendship from there.

When he returned home he tried to do his unfinished project. It didn’t matter though. He was quite adamant about not going to the college. Hiding who you are will be much tougher when you are away from home.

His parents even if not pleased with his decision, accepted it knowing it was the best thing to do. They were not very affectionate with him, but they still worried about their younger son’s safety.

After a few pages he started feeling drowsy. Did the coffee he drank wasn’t strong enough or did his wolf system already flush it out of his body? If only the person knew he was a wolf, maybe he would have. He wondered for a while, but before he could keep his eyes open for any further thoughts, he felt his lids heavy beyond his limits and fell asleep on his table itself.
