14 plot twist!?

He stared at me with angry eyes and snickered! It was clear how hard he was trying to stop himself from shifting, and that meant we were going to have a very hard and long night, just because of our own stupidity!

"Then why? Why did you eliminate one of them in the beginning? I told you vividly that you have to keep an eye on both of them and that means I want both of them! That means I wanted you to get close to him, in a way so that you have both of them by your side! And you dared to hurt one of them on your first day? I just want to know your reasons! WHY? WHY THE FUCK DID YOU THOUGHT THAT IT WOULD BE A GOOD FUCKING MOVE, TO HURT HIM?"

He shouted his last sentences in such a way that the sound of his wolf's roar was also evident in his voice and we were trembling with fear! Damn ... I could hardly breathe but I had to explain because I knew that silence would make him more livid!

I knew we were wrong on many levels, but I felt that boss was being a little unfair... Our main goal was Zayn, not that dwarf, and we had to choose!

"Boss! I swear that wasn't all our fault! Zayn wouldn't get along with him ... he hates his guts! We couldn't let go of our main target and took the other one's side, we had to choose one of them! Besides, you told me yourself that two members of the pack also are working on him, so it wouldn't be necessary for us to focus on him too much. I'm sure we can get on good terms with Louis but we can't get too close to him. For now, I think we should focus on the stronger one, which is Zayn!"

"Oh! That's so good to know! Thank you for mentioning it!" he said with a fake smile and then glared at me! He wasn't convinced?!

"Listen carefully! We still don't know which one is the alpha that we need, so until we're sure of one of them, we can't ignore the other one, you idiots! Besides, Louis has the upper hand till now so don't even think about hurting or disrespecting him! Anyway, it's your Loss to..."

"Hey, you ... what do you think you're doing?"

His voice was familiar ...so familiar that I could clearly see his face with my eyes closed, but I couldn't lift my head because of my fear of boss and my shock at what he had said ...How could that kitten had any advantage over Zayn? The boss himself was speechless, it was clear that he was shocked to see another person at the midnight and in the middle of the jungle, and Calum was completely silent with fear and pain!

"Hey...you! I said what do you think you're doing?"

For a few seconds, no one said a word ... The jungle was as cold and dark as ever, and the only sound you could hear was the howling of the wind and the sound of the creatures of the night! We were waiting for boss to say something and somehow send Louis away, but he just took a deep breath and whispered under his breath" shit!"

He took another deep breath and that was odd...it was like he was preparing himself for something! When he saw me staring at him, he glared at me quickly and I bowed my head again and he turned to Louis.

Louis was approaching us with his usual smile when he suddenly got frozen in his track...

"Oh my god! You...what the fuck are you doing here?!"

The blood froze in my veins...of course, he would know us! Who forgets their bullies? It was impossible to get out of this one without a scratch!

"Ashton!? What the heck?"

When his sentence left his mouth, our eyes came out of our mouths too... How does he know boss?

"Hey ... Hello Louis! What ... what are you doing here?"

We couldn't be more shocked...The boss really wanted to explain himself to Louis? Why? How could Louis allow himself to talk to him like this? Why in the hell boss is treating him like this?

"What am I doing here? You are the one beating them in the middle of the jungle, naked! Why I'm the one who always has to answer? What are you doing? How do you know Luke and Calum?"

Boss's heart rate had risen ... I could feel his anxiety so I tried to fix the situation before he could say anything...

"Calm down, Louis! It's ok! Ashton is completely innocent... in fact, it's our fault! At first, it started as a prank but we have gone too far and now we're just facing the music for it! He didn't even hurt us!"

"Yeah! Exactly... it wasn't a good idea!" Calum added quickly and smiled brightly through his pain!

He stared at us with a frown for a few moments and then turned back to boss who was looking at me in surprise ...I felt like I was melting with embarrassment! I called him by his name ... for the first time!

"I ignore the fact that not a single word of what you've said doesn't seem right ... Ashton? Look at me! How do you know them? And for god's sake ... Why are you naked?"

"I...Louis...I don't really..."

When boss panicked and tried to explain the situation, Louis shook his head and rolled his eyes at boss!

"Never mind! I heard someone screaming a few minutes ago, and it seemed to be from here. Luke and Klum don't look well either ... Are you ok guys? What's going on Ashton? How do you know them and what did you do to them?"

Louis asked worriedly while looking for any visible injury on us and glared at boss again! Why ... why was he defending us?

"Calum is my stepbrother and Luke is my boyfriend! It was a really bad prank and I'm kind of naked for the same reason! Both of them are fine ... aren't you boys?"

My heart skipped a beat...what did he say? Stepbrother and...Boyfriend? We were stunned but when he gave us a swift glare, we came back to our senses and confirmed him quickly. We laughed as normally as we could and stood up from the moist ground. Poor Calum was in pain but he did it without batting an eye anyway!

"You...you dragged them to the middle of the jungle and you're punishing them, just because they pulled a prank on you? Really?"

"No! God no! These two dorks dragged me into the jungle and then pulled the prank on me!" boss justified himself quickly and we nodded with big smiles on our faces! Louis looked at us for a few moments then beamed happily! His smile was bright as always...He was kind of cute!

"Ah...I got it now! Luke did the flirting part to get you in the jungle then Calum did the main prank!"

"He he...Exactly! Um...how do you know them by the way?"

Louis smiled happily at us and grabbed the straps of his backpack with both hands...Oh, dear moon goddess! If he decides to rat us out now, we'll never see the daylight again...at least not with intact bones!

"They're my friends! We go to college together!"

When boss turned to us and looked at us seriously, we blushed with embarrassment ...He didn't have to say anything. We knew how wrong we were about Louis!

"Hey...Ashton? Don't be so hard on them buddy, they're kids! By the way, I have a question! How could you hurt your own boyfriend? He was just kidding! I mean look at him...he's so cute and innocent!"

My eyes widened and I quickly lowered my head in embarrassment as boss laughed softly and pulled me to himself by my waist, then my eyes almost bulged out of my eye socket! Alright, big guy...easy! I may have a strong body but my heart...NOT SO MUCH!

"This beautiful thing here is driving me crazy with his cuteness and flirting skills! How can I hurt him? I wasn't being too harsh, these two are spoiled by me...so I think you can blame me for that!"

When he took his hand from my shoulder with a laugh and put it on my waist, my heart went crazy! I ... I'm really starting to like Louis!

"Hey! What about me? Pay me some attention too!"

Calum nagged and Louis rolled his eyes for him playfully and boss laughed again! I couldn't understand why boss was being so soft ... It was very difficult to calm him down and Louis did that in like... ten minutes?

"You don't get to complain! You're the stepbrother AND the younger one, don't compare yourself with his boyfriend! Having a younger sibling sucks obviously because you have to share everything! So you lose the right to complain, buddy!"

"Back off or you'll regret it!" His whisper was super low, but I heard it clearly! I tried to look normal, but I couldn't help myself and I pouted a little!

Apparently, Louis was a professional observer and noticed my sulking because he reacted so fast!

"Hey, blockhead! What did you tell him that made my baby pull back with that cute pout? Grab him and kiss him to solve all the discomfort, so we can go home and hit the hey ... we have a lot to do tomorrow!"

I panicked right away! Fuck no! That's too much...boss will kill me if that happens! "No no! I'm alright...I'm ok! We can go home now, let's go!"

"Where you think you're going? I'm not going home until you two patch things up with each other! Ashton? Come on! Kiss him!"

Louis insisted excitedly and Calum nodded with a big smile... that little shit!

"In the middle of the night...in the jungle? Isn't it a little inappropriate? When we got home, I'll kiss him till morning Happy?"

He just shook his head with a huge smile. Was he enjoying this? While I was having a heart attack?

"Nope! How is this inappropriate? Luke is your lover, Calum is your brother and I'm your friend! But if you need to hear this, I must say that I don't have any problem with gay folks! Everyone deserves to be with the one that makes them happy! Now come on!"

"Yes sir!"

He was laughing but I knew I had to pay for this sooner or later!

When boss laughed and turned to me, I swallowed nervously ... my heart was pounding in my mouth! He came towards me with a smile and wrapped one hand around my waist and with the other he grabbed my chin, which made my pupils bigger in fear! He was staring straight into my eyes...

"Don't panic or he will find out!"

He whispered inches away from my lips and his words were so reassuring to me that I closed my eyes without thinking about the meaning of his words, and he pulled my head down and put his lips on my flaming one...
