Thread: Stand By Me (River_Wolf and BloodRedRomeo)

Alonso Winters woke up to the same thing that always brought him from his sleep pain. Not a sharp pain, but a dull aching that was always with him. Every second of every day. Being a veteran of combat, it hardly bothered him. But in sleep, he was able to truly forget it. So waking up always made it truly acute for a moment. The pain came from a few places, particularly nasty scars from even nastier opponents. But the real pain was always in his right shoulder, the stump where his arm used to be. The one armed man stood up, a gentle groan as he stretched his giant frame. Not only was he six and a half feet tall, but his body was practically made of muscle. His long white hair fell behind him, forming his glorious, layered mane that made him stand out even more. There really was nothing about Alonso that could even be considered subtle. From there, it was a regular routine of getting dressed and eating breakfast. He was slower than he shouldve been, still getting used to life with a single upper appendage. Six months just wasnt enough time compared to his twenty-seven years of life. He couldve made it go much quicker if he used his powers, but he avoided that. He didnt want to become overreliant on them. That would only make him lazy. As he finished his preparations, he couldnt help but mentally remark on how massive his place was. Living in the penthouse of a top end apartment building came with some expected benefits, but this was far more than he anticipated. But this was a place for an Alpha and Alphas were expected to have Omegas and kids living with them. It was honestly odd that, at his age, he had neither. But he wasnt in the business of searching for a mate. The last attempt had gone...poorly. Finally ready to go, he grabbed the last piece he needed. It was a long black coat that he always wore. More than a fashion statement, it was his armor. Custom made and magically enhanced, it was a truly amazing piece of clothing that made Alonso even more terrifying. Finally, he was ready to go. After all, he had students to teach, and he knew from experience they wouldnt whip themselves into shape. I thought Id find you here, Gregor Redd said in a taunting voice, appearing near Kira as if from thin air. Of course, he hadnt teleported or anything. He had simply undone his invisibility. The strong young Alpha took a seat next to Kira, a smile on his face that resembled a predator staring at his prey. Gregor was a handsome young man with sharp features, everything seeming to be a bit sharper and more pointed than an average persons. He was well built, though not a monster by any means. His short, spikey red hair never would lead a person to believe he was skilled at stealth. But that assumption couldnt be more wrong. After all, a decade of stalking Kira had given him plenty of practice. Off to that shitty cabin of yours? he asked. He, being a gracious Alpha, had let his future Omega keep going to her little hideout. He knew about it and allowed it, thinking it was good for her to burn out this rebellious streak of hers before settling down to bare him children for the rest of her life the way he knew she was meant to. But just because he let her didnt mean he didnt voice his disapproval whenever he could. Ill nevet understand why you like that place. Cmon, dont waste your time there. We can go back to my place for some real fun. His tone and expression left no room for the imagination. Gregors type of fun was messy and highly explicit.
