My Atypical Wolf (BL)-Chapter 213

Chapter 213: Escape

Christian spent a lot of time thinking about a way to escape this place. He knew no matter what he did he would definitely have to stay here as long as he had zero lead. As for figuring out the sources of the leads, he definitely didn’t have any. Should he fake something? Would it be enough for him to leave? There was no way that they could find Ashton here, so how the hell would he convince Alpha Miller to let it go.

Based on Riley’s words it didn’t seem like Alpha Miller is the one to let go, and yet, Christian hoped he would be able to convince him otherwise. At this point he seriously started to consider running away before he got into some serious trouble.

Unfortunately though, if he tried to make a run for it it would put his pack in danger. He didn’t want it to come to that. Feeling hopeless he decided to take advice from one person he can always reply upon. He dialed Caleb. Caleb was in the middle of some paperwork when his brother called him, “Did you find a way out?” Was the first thing Caleb asked his brother.

As for Christian, in response he explained the entire situation to him including Riley’s connection to their pack and his perspective of Alpha Miller. Once he was done briefing he asked for Caleb’s advice, “What do you think I should do? I thought of everything... and all I can come up with is to run away. But that too puts our pack in danger” Christian groaned.

“If you stay there alone you might not make it out alive. But you decide to leave, even if you come here by running away it might give you a chance at surviving. As for war, we are way way stronger than their pack. They’ll crumble in front of us” Caleb scoffed.

“Caleb don’t be too overconfident” Christian scolded.

“But it’s true,” Caleb insisted. “Besides, even I can’t think of a better way”

.....

“No... this can’t be it” Christian mumbled.

“Why are you so adamant on staying there like this? Do you have some kind of attachment?” Caleb teased. “Just leave.”

“Do you realise what you are saying? That would be such a cowardly move” Christian huffed.

“I left. Are you calling me a coward.” There was no response from the other end, but if they were face to face at this moment Christian would be glaring at him right now. “Look, I know that what I am asking of you is a big step. But the more you stay there, the more worried I get. You are all alone there. You shouldn’t have gone there all by yourself” Caleb whispered. ｆ𝓇𝘦ℯ𝙬𝑒𝐛n𝐨νe𝙡.c𝑜𝗺

“I know, but I just didn’t wanna put a lot of pack effort in vain. We had a lot of failed attempts in the past, didn’t we” Christian sighed.

“But not this time,” Caleb sighed. “I’ll come. Maybe we can figure something out together?” Caleb offered.

“No way!” Christian shouted. “Look, you were just reunited with your mate, you should stay there!” Christian huffed.

“I spent eight years without him, he can wait a few days” Caleb huffed.

“You have got to be kidding me” Christian snorted. “When he left, he didn’t know it would take him eight years to come back. Just like you don’t know we will be out of here in a few days. What if something happens to you. Screw Ashton, as your big brother, how am I supposed to let it happen?” Christian scolded him. “Not to mention, you have a son who needs you”!

“But, I am worried,” Caleb insisted.

Christian let out an exasperated sigh. “You know what, give me a few more hours. If I don’t find an alternative way, I’ll make a run for it” Christian declared.

“Are you sure”? Caleb asked hesitantly.

“Mnn”

“Be careful” Caleb pursed his lips before hanging up his phone.

Christian waited there for a few hours trying to find a way out. Knowing the Alpha was highly suspicious of him he knew even running away was going to be difficult. He needed to plan his escape meticulously and that is exactly what he did.

Around late at night, he decided to go and make a trip to the office of Alpha Miller. As expected, Christian noticed Riley following him and to not make it obvious he pretended to be unaware of Riley’s follow. When he reached the office he was relieved to spot Alpha Miller there.

“What brings you by”? Alpha Miller asked him suspiciously.

“I called a few of my fellow pack Alphas to ask if they had seen anything like this before and one of them sent me this”. He showed the picture he had stored in his gallery a few years back when they traded the exact route taken by Ashton. The hotel which Ashton remember’s last had footage of another wolf who resembled Ashton.

At that point they believed it to be Ashton, but Ashton confirmed that it was the wolf which sort of attacked them and therefore he remembers it the last. “This is almost 60 miles away from here,” Alpha Miller noted. “This area is restricted to us wolves, it has a dark history”

“Why?” Christian tilted his head. “No one who had ever crossed this boundary made it back alive. We have lost countless wolves before we stopped exploring that area. If you have entered this place, that means you’re definitely gone for good”.

“Maybe that’s what happened to the wolf? You know, he crossed the border. Maybe now he is dead?” Christian suggested. If there was any chance Alpha Miller would let it go now, he could finally return in peace.

“We don’t know for sure”. Alpha Miller declared. “All this picture tells us that this wolf was there...” Alpha Miller trailed off. “But we could make sure.” He suggested. “You know what, this has been helpful, I think we should check this one out”.

“Do you need me to come?” Christian asked.

“No need, we got this” Alpha Miller nodded at him. “While Christian tried to look bummed by the prospect of not accompanying Alpha Miller, he was secretly thrilled as he had a perfect window to escape. As soon as he was sure that Alpha Miller and most of his pack went to check it out he picked up his trawley and headed out.

He was shocked to see Riley standing in front of him the moment he reached the main gate. “You are running away?”

“Yes” Christian affirmed apologetically. “I am so sorry, I really am... but I have to get out of here” Christian mumbled.

“No, I get that” Riley sighed, “But, I would be questioned when they find out that you are missing after they are back....” He trailed off.

“...” Christian remained quiet as he didn’t know how to respond to that. After all Riley had done for him, he felt terrible for putting him in a situation like this. He wished really bad for something he could do for his friend.

“I need you to knock me out,” Riley ordered out of the blue.

‘What”? Chirstian scowled.

“I don’t want to die in Miller’s hands. I cannot let him know that I let you go. I need you to knock me out so that it appears that I tried but failed to stop you from leaving” Riley suggested. “They will be suspicious of you anyways if you leave, I can’t have them be suspicious of me as well.”

“I suppose that’s fair,” Christian mumbled. “But...” he trailed off as he found himself hesitant to hit the guy in front of him. ƒ𝚛𝐞𝚎𝑤𝘦𝚋𝓷o𝚟e𝘭.c𝐨𝙢

“Also...” Riley prompted. “At this hour, you will find nothing to drive you. So here,” He dug out his car keys from his pocket and threw them to him. “The bronze one in the main garage is mine. I’ll tell them that you stole it” Riley shrugged.

“Another accusation”, Christian snorted. “Thank you” Chirstian mumbled. “For everything. All this wouldn’t have been possible without your help” He mumbled. “Let me know if you ever need my help”.

“Will do,” Riley smiled. Christian gave him a nod after a few moments of hesitation he threw a really hard punch on Riley’s face. Christian was well trained when it came to incapacitate any werewolves and thus a single punch was more than enough to render Riley unconscious on the ground without any visual bleeding. Christian still ensured that Riley’s breathing was intact just in case. In fact, if Riley were a human, his punch might have been potentially fatal.

Going to the garage he managed to spot the one and only bronze car and drive off to the airport in the hopes that he would be back home in less than twenty four hours. he needed to be away from this place before his absence in the pack became evident. He also needed to be prepared for anything that might threaten their harmony. This time, things really got complicated.
