"i don't know dude...what if i mess up?" alpha sighed as he flopped himself on his bed.
"calm down, its just elas's family, they cant be much different from him" akkar tried comforting as he sat on alpha's bed too. alpha shot upwards and looked akkar in the face unimpressed.
"his older siblings can always be much different! im not good with people akkar." alpha sighed as he hid himself in his knees.
"now now, im sure they will love you. and imagine how happy elas will be." akkar said as he patted on alpha's shoulder. alpha looked up and got off the bed to adjust his leather jacket.
"you're right...i have to go if i don't wanna be late" alpha said walking to the door of his bedroom and waving akkar goodbye. akkar sighed to himself as he heard the front door close a little bit later.
"his fault for falling for the social butterfly" he chuckled.

one motorcycle ride later alpha arrived at elas's house (mansion-) and took a deep breath.
"the things i do for him" he whispered under his breath before he rang the doorbell.
a little moment later elas opened the door to meet eyes with the person he loved most. a big smile grew on his face as he opened his arms for a hug. alpha couldn't help but smile back at his boyfriend and walked inside to hug elas, picking him up in the meantime. elas wrapped his legs around his waist while giggling. he put elas down and gave him a quick kiss.
"welcome back my love" elas smiled up at him before grabbing onto his hand and walking to the stairs.
"GUYS, COME DOWN. THERES SOMEONE I WANT YOU TO MEET!" elas yelled as he heard rambling upstairs. very soon, alena appeared from her room and ran to the stairs with an excited face, making elas and alpha smile at her. dior walked behind her as alena hurried down the stairs. alena stood infront of alpha and gave him a bow. alpha smiling and bowing to her too. dior joined the three and stook out his hand to alpha, alpha shaking it.
"my name is dior, and this is alena." dior said neatly until alena jumped in the conversation.
"you must be alphie right?!" she asked excited. elas's face slowly grew red.
"we've heard....so,,so much about you" dior sighed as alpha realized what was going on. elas hid his face in his hands.
"dior, alena, this is alpha...my boyfriend" elas said as he grabbed alpha's hand embarrassed.
"oh thank god at least he's your boyfriend, i thought you kept bringing a friend to your bed" dior rolled his eyes as he walked away to the couch. alpha's eyes widened as he followed dior with his eyes. elas's face dropped too as he looked at alpha.
"don't mind him...he's always so professional" alena pouts. "so what're we doing today?"
"well i thought we should all just sit and hangout first, we could do anything after that." elas smiled as he guided alpha to the couch and alena walked after them. they all sat down, alpha and elas together on one couch and dior and alena in the other.
"so, alpha, tell us more about yourself" alena smiled as alpha smiled back.
"alright well, im 20 years old and i live with my best friend akkar" he said.
"now i couldn't help but notice the motorcycle outside..." dior started.
"oh, yeah ive been driving since i turned 18" he said as he felt elas snuggle closer.
"then you must have money" dior said cold. elas's gaze jumping on dior.
"uh...no, heh, im not rich..." alpha smiled awkwardly. alena pushed dior's shoulder.
dior leaned forward and rested his arms on his knees.
"may i ask for your last name?" dior said raising his eyebrow. alpha glanced at elas.
"um, kelhana...alpha kelhana" he answered uncertain. dior scoffed and sat back.
"that explains alot...a kelhana you say huh? i've heard alot about your father, quite a dangerous man. heard he got cursed with a wolf curse...now, how unfortunate would it be if the curse was genetic..." dior smiled. alpha just blinked as anger slowly rose in his chest, but as soon as he made eye contact with elas it seemed to dissolve. elas sat up.
"dior! dont say that! be nice to him please..." elas scolded. dior stood up as he made his way towards elas and pulled him up to stand infront of him. he quickly sat down on elas his spot as he pointed at his own.
"you sit over there, you can sit with the wolf some other time" dior said as alena's eyes widened.
"wait! you mean to tell me you can ACTUALLY turn into a wolf?" she asked excited as alpha shook his head.
"n-no! the curse is not genetic, thank you for your worries?" alpha said as he looked at the both of them. elas cursing out his siblings in his mind.
"then what about your mother? is she ok? id love to meet her" dior fake smiled.
"oh uh, i haven't seen my mother since i was 11 years old. i don't know if she's ok" alpha said with a little bit of a heavy heart, the guilt of walking away stook with him ever since he left. elas noticed as he nervously bounced his leg up and down.
"i know, ive done some research on the kelhana's eversince i heard about the curse. a little thing that caught my eye was their son disappearing without a trace at 11 years old...i guess i just wanted to see if you would lie to me" dior said. elas stood up and walked to alpha's side of the couch before grabbing his hand and pulling him towards himself, making alpha stand up. he held onto alpha's neck and held him close.
"dior, thats enough. alpha didn't do anything to hurt you. leave him alone" elas defended.
"its fine pup, he's not the first one with opinions ive had to deal with." alpha said walking towards dior who stood up.
"my family might be a mess, i might not have alot of money, i might not be the neatest and you might have had a bad first impression of me before you even met me but i promise you i can make elas happy. let's not make enemies of eachother, i have too many of those already and i don't want my brother in law to be one of them." alpha said, alena looking up at him in admiration. nobody ever talked back to dior like that.
"many enemies huh? yeah...you seem like just the person to make elas happy" dior rolled his eyes. alena then stood up aswell, standing behind alpha.
"he can make elas the happiest dior, you worry about your own lovelife before elas's" alena said, holding onto alpha's arm.
elas stepped infront of alpha as alena and alpha walked backwards.
"and ill have you know, he knows what he's doing. if you piss him off it won't be pretty, so do yourself a favor and back off" elas smiled as he walked back to alpha and kissed his lips, alena squeeling softly as she jumped around.
"lets go to your place" elas said walking to the door and taking alena with him. alpha smirked as he made his way towards the door before stopping. he quickly turned back around and looked dior in the eyes before flashing his wolf eyes for a split second. diors eyes widened as he saw alpha smile and leave through the door.

"so...wanna tell me why you brought 2/3 of the alfreda manor here?" akkar said as he took a sip of his tea.
"alpha stood up for himself because dior was being mean! asking him personal questions and stuff..." alena said as she sat next to akkar. alpha chuckled.
"yeah, turns out you were wrong once again akkar, elas is very different from his brother" he smiled down at the boy in his arms before connecting their lips. alena smiling and nudging akkar on the arm to make him look at the boyfriends. akkar almost spilled his tea everywhere though.
"wait but alpha..." alena started as alpha nodded up at her.
"are you...really...a wolfshifter?" she gently asked. akkar looking at her in shock.
"OH THOSE KIND OF PERSONAL QUESTIONS-" akkar said shocked. alpha just laughed softly as he made his way to alena and sat infront of her on the floor.
"watch this" alpha said as he shook his head quickly and two wolf ears appeared. alena's face dropping in excitement and reaching out to touch them uncertainly.
"go ahead, touch them, you really think elas didnt want to touch them either?" alpha laughed as he reached his hand out to elas, making him come over and sit next to him.

the two were now in alpha's room, alena went home already because it was really late. they were snuggling on his bed while alpha played with his hair.
"hey alphie?" elas started as he sat up, alpha humming in response.
"thank you for holding back today, you did amazing. and im sorry for dior, he's usually not that emotional about anything..." elas sighed.
"its alright, like i said ive dealt with this before. all i wanted was to see you happy so i just went with the questions." alpha smiled as he caresses his face. elas gave a deep sigh.
"what's bothering you?" alpha asked as he looked at him.
"akkar....akkar asked me if i wanted to move in." elas noticed how alpha's eyes widened. "listen, he says you're way happier when im with you. though i can decline if you don't want me here! i know how much of a private person you a-" elas said before he got interrupted by alpha's lips on his own. the two sharing a few romantic kisses as elas sat on top of his boyfriend.
"so....is that a yes or?" elas smiled as alpha's smile appeared too.
"there are no secrets with us two, its true im happiest with you. please tell me you're saying yes" alpha smiled with excitement in his eyes. elas laughed.
"duh" he whispered before connecting their lips again.
