The sex isn't a major part of it, nor is it graphic. If you're looking for masturbation fodder, look elsewhere. There will be many slow times in this story, just like there are in life. Other times, things will fly at you too fast. There will be boring days, and exciting days. It's just how it's flowing.

Chapter 64

 

 

I heard Scott and Derrick coming down the hall while Dad and I were hugging. I pushed him to arm's length and winked as I said "Sure Dad, we can go fishing for a few hours. I'm free all day."

 

Scott grinned as he walked in and Derrick just stopped in his tracks. His face fell, but he forced a smile and said "It's ok Dad, I can wait. I know you miss Granddad and want some time with him."

That was not the reaction I had hoped for so I quickly stepped to him and put my arms around him "I was teasing you, Precious. Of course, we're going hunting. Yes, I miss my Dad, but Mom misses him too, so they can enjoy the morning while you and I hunt."

He smiled at that, but then whined "Are you all really going to keep calling me that? She wasn't calling me Precious, she was saying... Oh, nevermind, the more I complain, the more I'm going to hear it, am I right?"

Scott and Dad burst out laughing and Dad said "You're exactly right, Precious. Why do you think I call your Pop `Scotty' so much?"

 

Now it was my turn to laugh as Scott shouted "Hey!" Then he got quiet and his eyes filled with tears as he rushed to hug Dad "I missed you so much Daddy..."

 

I looked at Derrick and said "Maybe you and I should go hunt and let those two share some time. What do you think?"

 

Derrick nodded, and we quietly left the room. I stopped in the kitchen and asked Jamie and Stephanie to remain in the house. I explained that I didn't want him to scent them while he was learning control. They both smiled, saying they understood, and they would be helping Bea with the pups so they could be ready. I looked at the three of them for a minute, then Jamie clarified that they meant ready in the future, not ready now. We all laughed, but in the back of my mind I thought that Derrick would make a wonderful father.

 

As we walked to hunting rock, I asked Derrick what he already knew about triggering the change, and about his beast. He told me that he knew how Morgan, Brandon, and Eric had triggered theirs, and said that he was a true son of mine. I laughed and shook my head, knowing full well what he meant by that. I asked him if he had heard anything from his beast yet and he said the only time was when Jamie and Steph were around, and then it was just screaming `mate' at him. I smiled at that too and I picked him up and set him on the rock.

 

I looked into his eyes and smiled as I said "I think you're in for a surprise Precious." Then I leaned in and kissed him, holding him tight. Then my fears from last night resurfaced and I started sobbing. I held him until I got myself under control and pulled away a bit as I said "Sorry, but you really scared me last night. It's going to take a day or to before I'm over it."

He reached out and touched my face as he said "It's ok Dad, I understand. The whole time you were out there with Morgan, I felt so helpless. I thought I lost him then too. But he's alive, and I'm alive. We're all alive because we have you. You said you'd help me, that first day we came here, you wanted to help me. I'm so glad I let you. I'm so glad you're my dad now."

 

We were both in tears now so we just held each other for a while, enjoying the feelings of love. When we calmed down, I pulled back and wiped the last tear from his eye and kissed him again. This time I caressed his stomach as I kissed him, then reached lower and wrapped my hand around him, slowly stroking him as we kissed. I pulled my mouth from his and licked my way down his body until I found the leaking tip of his erection. I took him into my mouth and did my best to make it last, but his beast had other ideas. I had just tasted his first shot when I felt his body grow and I heard him growl. I looked up and he covered my chest in cum as I looked into his glowing red eyes.

 

I stepped back and smiled at him as his beast looked at me, considering me. Something clicked, because he lowered his gaze, turned his head, and offered his neck in submission. I growled my approval, then encouraged him to shift back. Instantly, my pup was back, smiling.

 

"Do you feel the surprise?"

"Am I an Alpha, Dad? No way, really?"

I nodded my head and said "Yup. I tasted it in your blood just like your brother's. Let's hunt, we'll talk about Alpha when we get home, ok Precious?"

He snarled at me and his eyes glowed red but I just laughed and took him deeper into the woods to teach him everything I could about his beast and how to use the two sides of his being, both separately and together, to serve his pack.

 

Two hours later we were walking in the front door after Derrick had silently stalked a squirrel, climbed the tree it was in, and snatched it from the branch it sat on. The first person we met was Eric. I saw his nostrils flair as he scented the Alpha in his brother and his eyes flew wide open in shock, then he carefully opened his arms to invite a hug. Derrick ran to him and they laughed like I imagine they had many years ago when life was simple.

 

Jamie and Steph came through from the kitchen and they both stopped and stared, then both lowered their gaze and stood waiting for Derrick to make the first move. He did, reaching out to take each of their chins in his hands and pulling their faces to meet his gaze. "I'm your mate first, your Alpha second. Never forget that." He said, with so much love in his voice I almost cried again. They both wrapped their arms around him and they kissed.

 

I hated to break up such a tender moment, but there was business to attend to, and I had a new Alpha standing here that needed a pack, so I said "You three, in my office, now." And I sent a message to Billy and Josh through our bonds, asking them both to join us but not explaining why.

 

I sat at my desk as Derrick stood in front of it, his future mates behind him. All three had their eyes to the floor, instinctively knowing that they were here to talk to their Alpha, or King, not their father or father-in-law. Billy walked in first, and I saw the shock as he registered the scent. Derrick glanced up and when their eyes met, Billy slightly lowered his gaze, then he smiled at his son and came to stand behind me, where he belonged. Joshua came in and had the same surprised reaction, but he never lowered his eyes as he stared into Derrick's. Like his brother, his beast struggled for a moment before realizing that this was the Crown Prince, and he lowered his gaze. Joshua smiled, put a hand on his back and leaned in, whispering something meant only for brothers, that brought a smile to Derrick's face.

 

I looked at him and said "Alpha Warnick, you and your mates please, sit."

They seemed surprised at my formal style, but they all sat and waited patiently.

 

"Derrick, you're my son, but more than that, you're now an Alpha. Your brother seemed to know instinctively what to call me at various times, and I'm hoping you can do that as well. Before your change, you seemed comfortable in different situations, so I'm sure you'll handle this just as easily."

"If you were an older man, I would be telling you where I wanted you to serve. That's my right, as Alpha, and King, but you're not an older man. You're a brand-new changeling who hasn't even had his 16th birthday as a human. I know what I'd like to see you do, but I'm not going to say until I ask you, what do you want to do? Where and how do you want to serve as an Alpha?"

Derrick raised his head and looked me square in the eye as he said "I would like to take your place, Father. You have to give up your packs to serve as King, and I would like to step in and serve the Pittsburgh pack, as well as any of your Serving Alphas that will accept me."

I nodded my head as I said "Why should I trust you with so much when you're so new?"

"Because here I'll have you, and Josh, and Papa to guide me as I learn. If you put me anywhere else, I'll be alone and more likely to make mistakes. I know I'll make mistakes either way, but here I'll have guidance in recovering from them, and avoiding some."

"Eric will be on his own in Maine, why are you different?"

"You said it yourself, Sire. I'm not 16 yet, Eric's 20 and has been out on his own for a while now. He has life experiences I don't have."

"Joshua, as Crown Prince, he'll answer to you, once we figure out the details of the Council, what do you think? Can you deal with him?" Then I turned back to Derrick "And can you serve under your brother in that way?"

 

Derrick respectfully waited for Joshua to say "I can work with him, Sire. I'd be proud to work with him."

Derrick said "I can't honestly say, but I'll promise to try, Sire. I'm sure I'll learn, with time."

"Billy, contact every Alpha that answers to me. Most might still be in town. I want a quick meeting with them all, as soon as possible. Those that can't physically attend can do so by phone. In fact, Joshua, run and find any that are here at the house please, while Billy makes his calls."

Both said "Yes Alpha." And while Joshua ran out the door, Billy started making calls.

 

I looked at Jamie and Stephanie and asked "Are you two ready to be Alpha Mates? Jamie, I know you know what it means, but do you Stephanie?"

She nodded and said "The pack comes before us. We serve the pack, just like he does."

"And you know his Beta will expect certain things?"

Jamie grinned "Maybe we'll get lucky and mate with our Beta, like you Sire."

"Unless we're in a formal setting, you both will call me Greg. I'm to be your father-in-law."

Joshua came back with Eric and Lorenz following him and said "The New York Alphas just pulled up, Dad. Marcus will be here in a minute too."

I looked at Eric and Lorenz and said "I'm considering giving Derrick my pack. If I do that, since you're both Serving Alphas of mine, technically he'd be your Alpha. I want you to think about that and give me your thoughts."

Eric smiled and said "Do I have to wait, Sire, or may I speak now?" I waved for him to continue, so he said "The fates provided him when you needed him, and you'll be here to guide him. I would be honored to serve my brother."

Then Lorenz said "He's older than I am, and I am now Alpha for a large portion of Europe. Like Eric said, he'll have you to ask for guidance, if he needs it. I too, would be honored to serve your son, Sire."

 

I was about to reply when Brandon came through the door saying "Morgan said I needed to come see you, Dad." He looked around and when he and Derrick made eye contact, Brandon lowered his gaze and walked to his brother's side.

 

I smiled and said "Brandon, show your brother your eyes, and say what your heart tells you to say."

Brandon shifted his eyes to the glowing green I knew they would be as he said "Alpha, I would be honored to serve as your Beta, if you'll have me."
