The New Pup

Have another update because I really wanna write this chapter.

A point of view in which the narrator knows all the thoughts, actions, and feelings of all characters. The author may move from character to character to show how each one contributes to the plot.

Aaron had fallen asleep in the chair he was sitting in when James woke up, feeling worse than the night before. He quietly got out of bed and made his way to the bathroom. He sighed and washed his face before taking a look in the mirror.

"What the..." He leaned closer to the mirror and looked at the two canines that were now longer and slightly sharper.

"How in the hell did that happen?" James muttered then leaned back, a wave of dizziness hitting him. He stumbled a bit and used the wall for balance.

He took a deep breath then looked back to see Aaron standing there. "Aaron I think something happened, can you come here please?" Aaron raised an eyebrow but complied regardless.

James opened his mouth then pointed to the longer teeth. Aaron blinked, confused. "That's weird, I'm sure they weren't like that before...they kinda look like Thomas'. When did you notice?" Aaron muttered.

"Just now," James responded simply. His stomach rumbled a bit and Aaron chuckled a bit. "Let's get you something to eat and then we'll figure this out, okay?" James smiled and nodded, heading down the stairs to the kitchen.

Aaron sat James down, claiming he "needed to conserve his energy" and made some breakfast for the both of them.

It was about halfway into eating when Aaron noticed James wasn't eating his food, just messing with it. "James, aren't you going to eat?"

"Hm? I don't know, I wanna eat but I wanna eat something else.."

"Like what?"

"...I'm not sure?" Aaron was more confused now, but was getting concerned now.

"What's the first thing that comes to mind?" Aaron asked.

James eyes flickered to a deep red then back to dark brown. "Blood..." He winced in pain and held his head.

Aaron was instantly at James' side.
"James?"

"I'm fine Aaron.." James mumbled.

"No you aren't, we need to talk to someone about this."

"I said I'm fine'" James repeated with a harsher tone.

"James pleas-"

"Goddamit Aaron I already told you I'm fine!" James glared up at Aaron, his eyes holding the deep red color. Aaron frowned and took a step back as James' expression softened a bit, his eyes fading to a mix of red and brown.

"Sorry Aaron, I'm having an awful headache and I feel like today is an off day..." James rested his head on the table.

He was surprised when Aaron nudged him up and pulled him over to the couch. Aaron crawled in James' lap and moved his head to the side.

"Aaron what are you doing?"

"Do what Thomas did with you yesterday, I wanna test something."

"Are you sure?" James asked, confusion laced in his voice.

Aaron nodded and James hesitantly bit down on his neck. Aaron flinched but wasn't all that surprised when James didn't pull away.

James felt the metallic taste in his mouth but instead of being disgusted and pulling away, he continued on much to his surprise.

After about 20 seconds James pulled away and licked the remaining blood away from his lip. Aaron looked back to him with a weak smile.

"I think I know what's happening to you," Aaron muttered, reaching up and flicking James' now slightly pointed ear.

"We should go talk to Thomas about this after you rest a bit," James mumbled.

Aaron nodded and nearly fell forward before James caught him.

"I feel dizzy..." Aaron mumbled and James laughed quietly.

"You'll get used to it." Aaron nodded and fell back on James, dozing off almost immediately.

~•~

Alex wiped any blood he had off his lip and entered the house, only to be smacked with a million questions.

"Where were you?!" Was the question that stood out the most.

"Guys, guys calm down. I was with Thomas but I need to tell you something," Alex said.

George, Martha, and Laf all nodded and sat down. Alex sat down across from them and explained his situation.

"Well, you're working on it now, right petit lion?" Laf asked. It still confused Alex that Lafayette called him petit lion when in reality he's more of a wolf than a lion.

Alex nodded and George and Martha sighed in relief.

"So you're finally gonna have to get a boyfriend or girlfriend. You won't be forced to stay lonely all your life afterall!" Martha cheered.

Alex huffed in response and George laughed.

"Praise the lords my son won't be a lonely piece of shit afterall!" Martha spoke and clasped her hands towards the sky, earning a laugh from everyone but Alex.

"Haha very funny," Alex said but couldn't hold back a grin.

It wasn't until everyone left that Laf pulled Alex aside.

"Petit lion you do realize that I know who your 'mate' is, right?" Laf grinned and wiggled his eyebrows.

"Laf, no, not this again," Alex groaned, which only caused Lafayette to grin wider.

"Come ooooon, I've seen how you two act. Besides you said it's the most efficient when your mate is also a hybrid. You two were practically made for each other!" the Frenchman squealed.

"Don't get your hopes up Laf, he probably doesn't even like me back," Alex said with a sad whine.

"Crazy! Watch, it's all gonna work out in the end," Laf said with a small smile.

"You think so?" Alex asked quietly, his ears perking up slightly.

Laf nodded and rubbed behind Alex's ear. Alex instantly started purring until he head a distant yet prominent hiss.

It was Thomas, he knew that. After that night, the two found out they could communicate that way. They didn't know how it worked, it must've been that bond Theo was talking about.

Alex sent a small howl back to let
Thomas know he was on his way.

Laf grinned more. "Is your mate calling?" Alex blushed and shoved Laf out of the way. "Yeah, but he's not my mate."

"Keep telling yourself that petit lion!" Laf called out as Alex left the house.

~•~

Alex knocked on the window and James franctially opened it.

"Thank god you're here, Thomas is having a breakdown and resorted to violence to try and calm down," James spoke fast as he yanked Alex in.

"Why is having a breakdow- what the fuCK?" Alex stared at James in both confusion and concern.

"I'll explain later, just go calm your damn mate down," James said as he shoved Alex out of the room and towards the stairs.

"Why does everyone keep thinking that?" Alex muttered and ducked when a glass nearly hit him in the head.

Thomas glared at Alex with a frown and it immediately brought back memories of middle/elementary school.

It made Alex frown but he shook it off and walked towards Thomas, who stumbled back and let out a hiss.

"Stop...I don't want to hurt you too..." Thomas mumbled as he felt tears prick his eyes.

"Hurt me? You could never hurt me," Alex said with a reassuring smile.

"B-but, I hurt James...and probably Aaron too..." Thomas found himself backed into a wall as Alex carefully hugged him.

"Thomas, I can assure you that you won't hurt anyone," Alex spoke softly and noticed Aaron sitting on the ground, holding his head and could hear faint heavy breathing coming from him. (Hehehe)

Thomas tried to shove Alex away but was very unsuccessful. He eventually gave up and slid to the ground, pulling Alex down with him.

Alex sat in his lap and sighed.

"What's got you all worked up?"

"I...I think I made James a hybrid..."

That for sure caught Alex off guard, based on his expression.

"Is that why I saw hi-"

"Yes...I don't know how but I did and it's my fault..." Thomas let out a quiet sob and Alex wiped away his tears.

"Hey, just think of it like...a new member to the team," Alex suggested with a playful grin.

Thomas let out a quiet laugh. "I have a hunch someone else is gonna join us very soon," Thomas looked over at Aaron. Alex followed his eyes and nodded.

"Probably. At least they'll be together," Alex sighed, wanting to add onto the sentence but held his tongue for once.

Thomas frowned and pulled Alex's head up with his hand. He then placed it on Alex's cheek and Alex leaned into it.

"This reminds me of that time in the forest..." Alex mumbled and Thomas nodded.

"Except, I can do this without getting interrupted," Thomas pulled Alex into for a kiss and Alex melted into it, his tail swaying happily from inside his sweater.

-----------------------------------
Aaron isn't the only one, we can't have 3 bats and only 1 wolf/1 cat. That would be outrageous!
