mga paru-paro were now in my stomach was we headed up the raise to her parents den, she looked back at me and could probably tell how I was feeling. A reassuring smiled appeared and I returned it before she turned and headed into the yungib with me right behind.
"Ah Kate there you are, I was beginning to worry" I heard Eve say
Only her parents were in the yungib who look all ready and eager to head down to the valley, I just silently stood there until Winston noticed me.
"Humphrey? What are you doing here, you should be down in the valley with the others." He said
"Well I..." I began but Kate cut me off, I had no idea what to say anyway
"He's fine dad, in fact there's a reason he's here" She said
"What do you mean?" He asked
I watched as she walked back to be and sat beside me so I did the same, I decided to just stay quiet and let her do the talking. "Mom, dad there's something we need to talk about"
"Alright but make it quick, everyone is waiting down there for us." Eve said
"I have to call off the wedding" She said
"What? Kate you already agreed to go through with it, why can't you now?" He sinabi surprised
"I don't pag-ibig him dad, I barely even know him and I'm sure he doesn't pag-ibig me either."
"I don't expect you to pag-ibig him, it's both of your responsibilities to go through with this for our packs." He reasoned, I could already see this was going downhill
"I'm not giving up my freedom and pag-ibig life just so you all can be happy" She sternly argued looking at both of them
"Kate you sinabi you would do this not even a araw ago, what made you change your mind?"
"I finally got the chance to stop and think about what I was doing to myself and I quickly realized that my puso belongs to someone else." She said
"Who?"
"Humphrey"
"Humphrey!" He gasped as there was a thud on the ground, Eve lied passed out on the hard dirt floor. "You can't be serious Kate he's an omega"
"I don't care what he is dad, I pag-ibig him and he loves me so I ask for your approval in marring him." She sinabi placing her paw around my shoulder as she continued "He's always been there for me and only now have I realized it, he makes me happy and has shown me the fun side of life."
I took pride in hearing her say those words, Winston on the other hand looked like he wasn't happy hearing this. "You realize that if allow you two to marry Tony will be furious with me and declare war on us, is that what you want? A war?" He said
"Well I'm telling you now there's no way I'm going down there and doing what you want me to do, it's either you let us marry or we just leave. I'm sorry dad but I'm not giving up my life just to be sad the rest of my life."
"You are not leaving Kate, not until I figure out what in the heck is happening right now." He said
"I told you what's happening, and you aren't going to stop me for I am old enough to be making my own decisions without you." She said, this was only going to end in disaster at this point.
"Marrying Garth is your responsibility and that's final, Tony and I have worked for far too long to just let this fall through all because you pag-ibig someone else, and an omega at that. You know the law and I can't make any exceptions to it just because you're my daughter."
That had to be the final straw because Kate stood up "You know Humphrey was right about you dad, you do only expect me to go through with life staying with the law just like everyone else has. I don't even think I know you anymore because you sure don't sound like my dad right now. So you can be left to think about what to do about wedding on your own, goodbye dad I won't be coming back for quite some time, come on Humphrey let's get out of this place."
She quickly turned and stormed out of the den, I got up and only looked at Winston before turning to leave as well but I didn't get far. "Humphrey wait" I heard him say
I froze not knowing what to do, I looked back at him and saw that he looked upset "I don't know what the end of today will bring for us but I want you to promise me one thing, take good care of Kate for me, she may be upset with me right now but I still pag-ibig her as much as I always have. I want you to know that I accept her choice in you as a mate, just understand that I'm only doing what's best for my pack.
I never expected him to see me as a fitting mate to his daughter, I'm just an omega that only knows just that and yet he thinks highly of me. "I will protect her with my life sir you have my word" I replied
"I know you will, now go on I need to get down to the valley and figure out some way to stop a war." He said
"Best of luck sir" Was all I sinabi before continuing out of the den.
I couldn't help but feel sorry about leaving here, I don't think Kate and I both fully realized that leaving would cause a war, but I guess this is just the way things have to be, even how unfortunate it sounds. We both vowed to stay together no matter how bad things turned out. I saw Kate standing below waiting for me to catch up to her, I took one last look down at the valley and all of the mga lobo there and shook my head before heading over to her.
"Ready to go?" She asked
"Yeah, it sucks to have to leave but it's the way it's got to be" I replied
We began to walk in no particular direction away from the yungib grounds, as far as I knew we hadn't even thought about where we should go. "I know, I am going to miss it here, but we'll be back to visit for sure as long as nothing bad happens..." She sounded upset which I didn't blame her for.
She had to leave her family behind just so she can live the life she wants with me, it made me feel guilty inside. "I'm sorry Kate I don't want it to be like this for us, I mean you have to leave you family behind in order to be with me and I feel like it's my doing." I said
"Don't blame yourself, I pag-ibig you and I am not going to leave your side even if I'm not with my family."
"Thanks Kate, but if you ever change your mind and want to go back I won't mind, I just want you to be happy." I stated
"I am happy Humphrey, it might not look like it right now but I am glad that I get to be with you instead of someone else." She replied "I just hope things go well with the packs and they still unite with a better way than marriage."
"Yeah hopefully" I smiled "So where are we going to go?"
"I'm not sure but its best that we get far from here fast just in case my dad changes his mind." She said
"Well as long as my alpha is leading the way we can go anywhere" I sinabi looking at her
She smiled as we went on to walk in silence giving me some time to think, where could we go that was ligtas and special? One place came into my mind and that was Sawtooth, it was a nice place and I was sure that it would be ligtas considering humans sent us there expecting us to thrive in a way. It was the afternoon already meaning we wouldn't be getting very far once night came, that is if Kate wants stop or wants to press on through the night. She was the leader, I was the follower and I liked it that way.
As we neared the territory border a voice called out to us from above "Ah there you two are" we both stopped and looked around to see where the voice came from.
I smiled when I saw who landed down in front of us "Hey Marcel and Paddy, what brings you here?" I asked glad to see them again
"Why we came looking for you to see how you were doing being back tahanan again." Paddy replied
"Yes but we never saw you with the other mga lobo so we've been looking around for a while." Marcel added "So what are you doing out here?"
"Humphrey and I are leaving to go live elsewhere" Kate said
"Ah see Paddy I told you they were meant to be together" He said
"Just took some time but yes you are right sir" Paddy agreed "Why are you leaving and not just staying here?"
"Because there's a law that keeps us from being together here so we have to leave and live as lone wolves." I answered
"How terrible to hear, and to think mga lobo of all creatures would have laws like that." Marcel said
"Yeah, but it is what it is and were making the most of it" I said
"Well Paddy and I are here to help you get to wherever it is you are going." He smiled with Paddy agreeing
"Oh thank you guys, but that's the thing we don't know where to go." Kate said
"Don't know where to go? Why you can go anywhere!" He said
"Yes quite a lot of nice places around north and south of here" Paddy added
I could tell Kate was thinking of somewhere but I decided to suggest a place I had in mind "Why not just go back to Sawtooth?" I asked looking at her in particular.
"You know that isn't a bad idea Humphrey, it's safe, pretty and we've been there before." She agreed
"Yeah that's why I like it" I said
"Alright that settles it then, we're going back to Sawtooth!"
"Wonderful, we help you get all the way here just to go back again" Marcel sinabi sarcastically
I laughed "Yep"
"Guess that means Sawtooth will be seeing madami mga lobo around in the future, eh?" Paddy teased
I smiled "Who knows..."
I could see Kate just roll her eyes and look away for a moment before turning to back to ask them something "Is there a train we can catch?"
"Hmm I'm not too sure, there should be one at some point that you could catch and take most of the way there." Marcel replied
"Perhaps you could head to the tracks and we'll fly ahead and see of any are coming" Paddy suggested
"That would be great, we'll be waiting for you" She said
The both nodded before taking off and flying away, we began to walk in the direction of the railway tracks that weren't too far from the territory's border.
"I'm glad we talked to them because I would have no idea where to go to get back to Sawtooth." She sinabi as we walked side sa pamamagitan ng side
"Yeah if it wasn't for them who knows where we would be now" I agreed
"Lost in the forest somewhere I imagine"
The tracks appeared along the mountain side as we climbed up to meet them, I was looking pasulong to getting to spend some madami time on a train. I found that it was nice to sit and watch the world to sa pamamagitan ng with the wind going through my fur, especially with my new mate sa pamamagitan ng my side. Who knew what our future was going to be like once we got to Sawtooth but I was going to make the best of my time there. Perhaps I would learn to hunt and even fight, that way Kate wouldn't be stuck doing all of the work sa pamamagitan ng herself.
I suddenly realized one thing, if we're going to be lone mga lobo than how are we going to get married? I mean normally the pack leader has to be there to make it official but we're not going to have that in Sawtooth.
My thoughts were interrupted when Kate put her forearm on my shoulder "You okay?" She asked looking at me
We had been sitting on a rock sa pamamagitan ng the tracks for a bit now "Yeah I'm fine, just thinking is all" I smiled
"About what?"
"About spending my life with you in our new tahanan when we find it"
She smiled and nodded, "I do have a tanong though" I said
"And what's that?"
"Well how are we going to get married if we're living alone?" I asked
"You don't need to be in a pack to have a wedding, we can do the ritual on our own." She replied
"Ah then we'll have to do that once we get there."
"We could always do it right now" She suggested
"No I want it to be somewhere special for us" I said
She smiled "I agree, that way it will be madami memorable too"
We continued to talk as time passed by, soon an oras had passed sa pamamagitan ng fast since we were so busy talking about things. Finally she noticed Marcel and Paddy flying towards us along the tracks, we both got up and stood as they landed before us.
"See anything?" I asked
"Yes there is a train making its way to here" Marcel answered sounding a little tired from flying so far
"Great! How far out is it?" Kate asked
"I'd say about half oras at most, maybe less" Paddy said
We both smiled "Thank you so much" I said
"Not a problem, anything for friends" He said
"Yes, now we got some things to attend to but we will see you along the way" Marcel sinabi "This time stay on the right path okay? I don't need to be any madami of a travel agent than I already am."
We all laughed "Alright see you guys" Kate sinabi as they both took back off and flew into the distance.
Clouds have been rolling in and now covered the sun darkening everything just a bit, we both admired the view we could see from the rock we laid on. You could see some of the valley but not enough of it to see where we used to call tahanan due to the way the terrain and trees were. Soon a faint rumbling sound could be heard which had to be the train approaching us, we waited as the noise got louder until the train appeared down the tracks.
"Alright I'll jump in first and I'll be there to help you up if you need it" Kate sinabi getting up
"Do we just run alongside and jump in?" I asked, we had never done this before since last time we both landed inside one of the cars via a log sled.
"That's the idea I guess, as long as it's not going to fast" She replied
I nodded my head before looking back at the train which was making its way closer, she told me to start running once it got to us which is just what we did. As planned she jumped into the first open train car and looked back at me while I prepared to jump, I had no idea if I was able to make the jump but I had to try. I noticed the land sloped up alongside the track so I used it as the spot to jump, I flew through the air before landing hard on the cars floor.
I got up and made sure I wasn't hurt which thankfully I didn't have a scratch so I turned to look at Kate who smiled "Good job that was a better jump than so expected from you" She complimented
"Yeah I'm always full of surprises aren't I?" I said
"Mmhm"
We sat and watched as the sights of Jasper began to disappear from view as this train took us to our new home, I was glad how things turned out for me. Sure I had to leave the pack and all my mga kaibigan but I got what I wanted which was for Kate and I to become mates.
I gave her a lick on the cheek which she giggled and returned "I pag-ibig you Humphrey"
"I pag-ibig you too Kate"
We smiled for a moment "So we got a lot of time sitting on here, what do you want to do?" I asked
"I'm feeling tired since I didn't get much sleep last night so I'm going to take a nap." She replied
"Yeah same here, I'll sumali you" I said
We both walked to the back of the car and laid down together with our backs touching, I sighed and closed my eyes happy that I had Kate sa pamamagitan ng my side.
________________________
Unknown to the two mga manliligaw as they slept things back in Jasper had been going well after a short bit of conflict, the packs both united through a different marriage that was for pag-ibig and not responsibility. It turned out that Garth and Lilly had developed a pag-ibig for one another during the short time they spent together, which is just what saved the pack from starting a full blown war. The news of Kate and Humphrey's departure was saddening and a shock to everyone considering the reason why they did.
Tony wasn't happy about hearing how his plan to unite fell through and argued to Winston that he needed to go find her and force her to comply with her responsibility. But Winston couldn't do that, he knew and understood that his daughter was happy with Humphrey and that they would be fine living together alone. It was at this moment while the leaders argued that Garth decided to step pasulong and put an end to this, he knew a way that the packs could still unite and it will be for the better for everyone.
He confessed that he was in pag-ibig with Lilly and wished that he could marry her in order to unite the packs, at first his father refused but eventually saw how it would work. So they agreed to abolish the alphas over omegas law and unite the packs as one, everyone was happy and relieved after Garth and Lilly completed their marriage ritual. A great peace had begun for everyone what was ensured to last for many years and generations to come, however Winston was feeling upset now that his daughter and mate could come back and live here as one.
To think that if they stayed through all that has happened they would have never needed to leave their true home. Maybe if they decide to ever come back to visit they will learn what really happened and maybe even come back to live here. But it is what it is now and there's no way to change it, he knew they would still be happy wherever they decide to live. Winston was just glad that things had gone the way they did and did not turn into a major conflict between two packs. His job was complete and now he headed to the moonlight howl to celebrate the peace with his pack mates.
As for Kate and Humphrey they are living happily together as mates in Sawtooth, they found a yungib near a mountain side and have been enjoying each other's company. Humphrey told Kate that he wanted to learn how to hunt which pleased her and was madami than excited to help teach him her alpha knowledge. Everything was the way it was meant to be and all Kate and Humphrey had left to do now is live their lives to the fullest…
THE END

Thank you for pagbaba and I hope you enjoyed this installment of FanFiction, peace.
"Ah Kate there you are, I was beginning to worry" I heard Eve say
Only her parents were in the yungib who look all ready and eager to head down to the valley, I just silently stood there until Winston noticed me.
"Humphrey? What are you doing here, you should be down in the valley with the others." He said
"Well I..." I began but Kate cut me off, I had no idea what to say anyway
"He's fine dad, in fact there's a reason he's here" She said

"I'm not giving up my freedom and pag-ibig life just so you all can be happy" She sternly argued looking at both of them
"Kate you sinabi you would do this not even a araw ago, what made you change your mind?"
"I finally got the chance to stop and think about what I was doing to myself and I quickly realized that my puso belongs to someone else." She said
"Who?"
"Humphrey"
"Humphrey!" He gasped as there was a thud on the ground, Eve lied passed out on the hard dirt floor. "You can't be serious Kate he's an omega"
"I don't care what he is dad, I pag-ibig him and he loves me so I ask for your approval in marring him." She sinabi placing her paw around my shoulder as she continued "He's always been there for me and only now have I realized it, he makes me happy and has shown me the fun side of life."

"Marrying Garth is your responsibility and that's final, Tony and I have worked for far too long to just let this fall through all because you pag-ibig someone else, and an omega at that. You know the law and I can't make any exceptions to it just because you're my daughter."
That had to be the final straw because Kate stood up "You know Humphrey was right about you dad, you do only expect me to go through with life staying with the law just like everyone else has.

Unknown to the two mga manliligaw as they slept things back in Jasper had been going well after a short bit of conflict, the packs both united through a different marriage that was for pag-ibig and not responsibility. It turned out that Garth and Lilly had developed a pag-ibig for one another during the short time they spent together, which is just what saved the pack from starting a full blown war. The news of Kate and Humphrey's departure was saddening and a shock to everyone considering the reason why they did.
Tony wasn't happy about hearing how his plan to unite fell through and argued to Winston that he needed to go find her and force her to comply with her responsibility. But Winston couldn't do that, he knew and understood that his daughter was happy with Humphrey and that they would be fine living together alone. It was at this moment while the leaders argued that Garth decided to step pasulong and put an end to this, he knew a way that the packs could still unite and it will be for the better for everyone.
He confessed that he was in pag-ibig with Lilly and wished that he could marry her in order to unite the packs, at first his father refused but eventually saw how it would work. So they agreed to abolish the alphas over omegas law and unite the packs as one, everyone was happy and relieved after Garth and Lilly completed their marriage ritual. A great peace had begun for everyone what was ensured to last for many years and generations to come, however Winston was feeling upset now that his daughter and mate could come back and live here as one.
To think that if they stayed through all that has happened they would have never needed to leave their true home. Maybe if they decide to ever come back to visit they will learn what really happened and maybe even come back to live here. But it is what it is now and there's no way to change it, he knew they would still be happy wherever they decide to live. Winston was just glad that things had gone the way they did and did not turn into a major conflict between two packs. His job was complete and now he headed to the moonlight howl to celebrate the peace with his pack mates.
As for Kate and Humphrey they are living happily together as mates in Sawtooth, they found a yungib near a mountain side and have been enjoying each other's company. Humphrey told Kate that he wanted to learn how to hunt which pleased her and was madami than excited to help teach him her alpha knowledge. Everything was the way it was meant to be and all Kate and Humphrey had left to do now is live their lives to the fullest…
THE END
