My Atypical Wolf (BL)-Chapter 46

Ashton spent his weekend doing nothing way too important. He had finished his homework a long ago so he had nothing else to distract him from the constant irritating question that kept popping up in his mind, ‘Who was she’?

When the school finally reopened he was glad but also a bit anxious. The thing is the wolves knew about Sara, so they didn’t question much. But the humans however didn’t and it only just got harder to tell the truth. f𝙧𝒆𝚎𝑤e𝚋𝓷o𝘷𝗲l.c𝐨m

All they knew that Sara disappeared. Why? No human knows. They speculated many things. Either she left the school, she eloped or something or she was a victim of those animal attacks. Even her close friend Carlie asked the teacher, who being a wolf dismissed it right away.

She even bothered Ashton about her to which he simply responded with his usual cold demeanor and complete silence. That being his usual behavior was not suspicious at all.

He knew that Caleb ate lunch at the cafeteria. While he was not fond of that crowded space he contemplated whether or not to approach him. Even if he did it would be useless as he won’t be able to have an honest conversation without giving away his identity.

Nevertheless he went there to observe him in case he could deduce what was going on. Maybe he will share stuff with his friends and he could just eavesdrop. His plan backfired when he saw Caleb eating all by himself. Even his best friend was sitting somewhere else. ‘Did they fight’? He wondered.

Despite that whenever he saw Caleb or noticed him nearby he tried to eavesdrop or deduce what was going on with him. After the whole day of absolutely nothing he was frustrated and finally decided to take a major step and confront him in front of his car. Most of the teammates were gone by now so it was not that risky anymore.

He waited for almost fifteen minutes for Caleb in front of his car when he finally showed up. He could see the hesitation in Caleb’s composure for a matter of a few seconds before he changed it to a stoic one.

Without waiting for anything or bothering Ashton, Caleb straight away went to open the door to the driver’s seat. Ashton was a bit astonished to see this kind of behavior, which was actually?usual for him not Caleb. Regardless, he gained his composure back and the moment Caleb was about to get inside Ashton shut the door open with all his force.

.....

He even made a tiny dent which was bound to drive Caleb crazy. Caleb gritted his teeth as he fought his urge to burst out on the other. “What is going on with you”! Ashton exclaimed at him.

“That is none of your concern. Move”. Caleb ordered him and tried to open the door again. Ashton kept his force on the door intact that prohibited him from opening the door. “Let it go”! He snarled at Ashton, finally looking into his eyes.

Ashton noticed a hint of desperation for a flickering moment before it was replaced with anger, “You are always asking me to mind my own business, then why are you bothering me now”? f𝔯ee𝘸𝘦𝚋𝒏oѵ𝐞l.c𝒐𝓂

“Well, you never listened to me. I won’t listen to you either”. Ashton shrugged.

“So what? Getting your revenge”? Caleb scoffed.

“Whatever” Ashton shrugged before giving him a serious expression. “I was there that day, I witnessed almost everything that happened, How can you shut me out like that”!? Ashton asked Caleb a little too loudly.

“I am not. I know you want to keep your secret, so I am asking you not to get involved” Caleb made it clear. “Now, if you will excuse me, I have a date”! Caleb grabbed Ashton’s hand and removed it forcefully from the door and drove away.

Ashton, who stood there all by himself, scoffed before he looked around for something to punch. Of course he didn’t find anything which only increased his frustration.

He went to the Cafeteria for his part time job, and focused all his attention there. While it might not be completely effective it worked to a certain extent. He was however less cheerful than usual for which he got scolded as it did not attract much customers.

Around 7 o clock when he was almost done by his shift and was going to get his bag before he changed he saw two familiar faces come in. “This is where we hang out from time to time after our match”. Caleb explained to the beautiful woman next to him whose name was Karolyn.

“This looks familiar. Did you ever call me from here”? Karolyn asked him.

“You did. The last time you called me” He told his friend.

Ashton, who was fuming with anger once more stopped Beth from going to them. “Do you mind if I take them”? He requested her.

“Really”? Beth was taken aback by the request since Ashton would never take a customer by choice. In fact he would happily give away his own and spend his time behind the counter.

Ashton nodded at her so Beth shrugged and let him do it. Ashton smirked before he went to them. “Welcome to Daily Delights”. Ashton spoke to them. While Karolyn looked at him with a bit shocked expression Caleb avoided his gaze as he gulped.

“You… I ran into you the other day” Karolyn pointed out before she smiled a little bit.

“Yes. I hope you are doing well”. Ashton replied to her with a forced polite manner. For some reason Ashton found it harder to like her more than when they first met. He just couldn’t stand her. Meanwhile Caleb kept avoiding his gaze and thus the tension between them became apparent. “Can you show us our seats”? Karolyn prompted in an attempt to dissolve the situation.

“Yes, will you like something private or casual”? Ashton asked.

“A little private, please” Karolyn answered. If the tray in Ashton’s hand could feel pain and talk, it would be crying right due to the strength Ashton was putting in to hold it.

After an awkward pause Ashton spoke, “Please, follow me”.
