I’m gonna catch the bird and show it to mom!”<br/><br/>Lucas pinched the bridge of his nose, taking a deep breath to calm himself, wondering just how on earth he got himself into these interesting situations. “Oliver, you won’t catch the bird before it flies away again!” Trying to reason with the kid, more wolf considering he’d chased the eye catching animal straight up there without thinking. And werewolf pups weren’t exactly cats when it came to landing on their feet. “Just come down here before you hurt yourself!”<br/><br/>”No!”<br/><br/>The kid was going to give him a heart attack as he climbed ever higher. He knew werewolf kids could withstand a lot more than human kids but even he didn’t think they could survive such a fall unscathed. ”Don’t you dare go any higher or I will come up after you!” The little imp stuck his tongue out at him. Great and just a couple of hours before the pack feast. School had ended fifteen-twenty minutes ago and his parents were suppose to come and collect him but they were running late. He‘d thought it would be fine, leaving the kids alone with Milly, another omega, to watch over them whilst he went off to do something really quick, only to find whilst her back had been turned for but a moment, the kid had climbed the tree to catch some kind of blue bird who was flying back and forth to feed its chicks. He knew bribery couldn't get him down when he was so focused on 'prey'.<br/><br/>Lucas sighed and took off his jacket before going up after Oliver. He wasn‘t one for climbing trees normally or ever, but he made progress. "Oliver! Don't touch that nest!" Yet he kept trying to jump up on the branch to grab at the birds. He climbed up another branch just as Oliver's foot slipped after getting startled by the mother bird pecking at him to protect its chicks. The kid fell and Lucas went to grab him. He caught him round the waist only just, but the momentum dragged them both down. He held Oliver tight to him and turned himself so the kid was protected.<br/><br/>The branches smacked him on the way down before his back hit the ground with a loud thud, making Milly and a couple other kids scream. "Oh my god, are you ok!?" Milly ran over, along with the other kids. Lucas groaned and slowly uncurled to reveal a crying Oliver. "Yeah, just a little bruised..." he huffed, flopping. Oliver couldn't stop crying as Milly picked him up, hugging him close. With a grunt, Lucas pushed himself into a sitting position. "You ok bud?" Oliver hiccuped and sniffled, before pouncing on Lucas to give him a big hug. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry! I won't do that again!" The little seven year old cried, leaving a patch of snot and tears on his shirt. "I'm just glad you are ok." He said, patting him on the head.<br/><br/>"What in the he- heck happened!?" Lucas winced as the kids mother, one of the pack hunters came storming over.<br/><br/>After spending another half an hour trying to calm down Olivers parents and explain what happened, the kid was dragged away whilst getting reprimanded, leaving him and Milly alone to lock stuff up.<br/><br/>He made it back home with an hour to spare, which gave him barely enough time to cook his parmegiano and garlic sweet potato wedges side dish, have a shower and get dressed into something more appropriate. He put on some jeans, a white button up shirt and navy blazer and plated up his wedges into a large glass oven dish, before making his way over to where the rest of the pack was.<br/><br/>He first placed his side dish with the rest of the dishes brought, before going over to greet his alpha, offering him a smile and a bow of respect. He then quietly made his way to the other end of the large table to sit amongst his fellow omegas between the elders and hunters. A year in and these weekly feasts still felt surreal to him, offering a smile as some of the other wolves began greeting him and making small talk. Yet somehow he still felt lonely.
