Chapter 4 - Chapter 4: Alpha Knows Best

After a tiring day at school with Beta breathing down his neck Fenris eventually found himself back at the old brick house where the pack lived. " Hey you two. " Alpha said smiling " Ok today you are learning how to be a wolf. " he said to Fenris. " Have you had your first transformation yet? " Alpha asked to which Fenris replied by looking confused and shook his head " No no I haven't. ". Alpha snorted " Aww man that is going to suck for you. " he said and poked Fenris's shoulder " So first lesson is controlling that anger. " he explained while leading Fenris to a grassy opening. "After being bit anger gets harder to control and as I'm sure you have found out you get angry much faster than usual. " Alpha said.

Turning to Fenris Alpha smiled " It's all that wolf chemistry makes you want to kill everything. " he explained and wiggled his fingers at Fenris. " So first thing you have to learn is how to control it. " Alpha said then kicked Fenris. Falling down Fenris wheezed and looked at Alpha " What was that for!? " he yelled and began to stand up. Alpha clicked his tongue and kicked Fenris again " Don't get angry. " he said smiling and looked down at Fenris who was starting to growl once again. Fenris looked up at Alpha then stood up " Don't hit me. " he growled which prompted another kick. " Wow you are really dense. " Alpha said. Breathing in deeply Fenris stood up and just glared at Alpha "hmm better." Alpha replied and kicked Fenris again. Yelling as his anger got the better of him Fenris charged Alpha and found himself flat on his back with Alpha looking over him.

"You were doing so good, well we can come back to that we have new lessons now." Alpha said and lead Fenris over to a motorcycle. " This is your ride I expect you to buy one soon ,but I am going to be teaching you how to ride one in the first place. " Alpha said and motioned for Fenris to get on a bike. Doing as told Fenris got on a motorcycle and looked at Alpha " Now what? " he asked to this Alpha began to explain to him how to work a motorcycle "and finally this is your back break." he said pointing to a piece of metal that stuck out right in front of the motorcycles right footrest. Nodding Fenris started up the motorcycle then pulled in the clutch and shifted to first gear " Now slowly let the clutch out. " Alpha explained. Fenris took in a deep breath then let out the clutch though a bit too fast causing the bike to lurch forward and pop a small wheelie. "I said slowly Jesus Christ kid" Alpha said smoothly letting out the clutch as he began to ride beside Fenris "C'monn we're going on a ride." Alpha said and began to ride off. Riding after him Fenris made sure to keep his balance as they reached the road and went into town.

After riding around town for a few hours Fenris got the hang of switching gears though he could still do a lot better as put in Alphas words. "Alright Fenris it's time " Alpha said as they pulled up to the brick house "Time for what?" Fenris asked as they walked inside the old house. " Well I have taught you everything I can until your transformation so it's time for your last lesson. " Alpha said . "Which is?" Fenris half asked half demanded " That you belong to the pack . " Alpha explained as he took Fenris to a tattooist. Swallowing Fenris looked at Alpha who nodded Fenris then went to the couch where the tattooist was and greeted him. " shirt off lay on your back. " the tattooist said ,nodding Fenris did as asked and soon heard the tattoo gun then felt the sharp pain of a needle hitting his skin.

After fourteen hours Fenris eventually had the symbol of the pack tattooed on his back a snarling wolf. " Why couldn't I just get a leather jacket or vest? " he asked groaning as he put back on his shirt " because those are earned. " Alpha replied. " Fine, Fine. " Fenris said and stood up " So you are now welcome to live with the pack. " Alpha offered ,but Fenris sbook his head " No I would rather live at my house. " he said firmly. Looking at Fenris with a small smile Alpha nodded " That's fine but you need someone to watch you. " Alpha ordered before letting out a sharp whistle. Soon thereafter Beta walked in the room " Yes Alpha? " she asked " You are going to live with Fenris here and he his mentor or chaperone whichever term you prefer. " Alpha said smiling. Beta nodded then turned to face Fenris" So I'm watching you puppy well you better have a extra room. ". Fenris was going to try and argue but he saw a dangerous light in Alphas eyes that warned him it would be bad to not follow orders " Yeah I have a spare room. " he muttered and with that the two of them walked out of the old brick house.

Walking home Fenris showed Beta her new room his old room to be exact. " You can have my old room I cleaned out my belongings once my parents died and I moved to the master bedroom. " he explained. " Thanks puppy so generous. " Beta replied sarcastically and set down a duffel bag she had packed. "So Alpha told me to watch you which basically means don't let you do dumb shit." she said turning to Fenris. " We will visit the pack whenever alpha needs us till then. " she threw Fenris something "here's something to pack a harder punch till your first transformation." she said. Turning the object over in his hand Fenris realized it was matte black brass knuckles with a spike where the pinky and index finger is. "Thanks?" Fenris said slipping it into his pocket " No problem now get out of my room. " Beta said shutting the door.
