Home Bound

"What the hell is wrong with you Niall!" Seth screamed at his son. They were still standing in the same spot where Desmond had left then, not knowing what on earth to do about this whole mess of a situation.

"I'm sorry dad it was an ac-" Niall started but was cut off by his father yelling again.

"An accident?! A damn accident Niall?! You deliberately disobeyed me! Now look at us!" Seth screamed into Niall's face. They were alone, in the woods, without their pack. They were left with orders to not come back without Harry no matter what.

"How will you ever become head alpha now? How will you ever lead this pack now the Desmond hates us? I was setting your life up for you Niall and you had to ruin for some bitch in heat?! What if we never find Harry? We never go back Niall and it's all your fault!" Seth continued to yell as he paced back and forth in front of his son. Niall didn't look up from the ground, his father was right and there was nothing he could do to change it. He had run off with an omega instead of fetching Harry. This was his fault and he had to do something, he had to bring Harry back safely.

"Dad!" Niall finally snapped, finally having heard enough. This had to be fixed, Harry had to be found. Seth looked at his son with a disgusted look.

"Are you going to just keep screaming at me or are we going to find him." Niall spit, not waiting for an answer before he turned and walked away from his father. He knew he had fucked up big time and he didn't need his father screaming at him. He just hoped with everything that he was that Harry was smart enough to just stay where he was. Or if something happened to Harry, they got their on time.

Niall and his father both changed into their wolf forms and began running through the woods trying to pick up any trace of Harry's scent. There was a loud crack of thunder, a sign that it would storm at any second, washing whatever scent Harry might have left behind, away. This only motivated Niall, pushed him to run faster into the woods, his paws kicking up mud as he ran, still desperately searching for Harry's scent.

It was only mere minutes before rain started to fall from the sky. The slow small sprinkling drops soon turned into a heavy downpour causing Niall to come to a stop. His fur was soaked as he sat down, his father moving to sit down next to his son. Even if his son had made the mistake that might change and ruin their life forever, he still and forever would love his son.

Niall looked up at the black clouds, the rain hitting his face, dripping off of his fur. He took in a deep breath and let out a mournful howl. Once his voice had echoed off the trees and everything around him fell silent he waited for a call back, Harry, his pack, but nothing came except another mournful howl from his father, accepting their fate if they never found Harry.

Louis didn't know how long he had been running, he only knew he wanted to put as much distance between him and the Styles pack as possible. If they really had abandoned Harry, which he really doubted, he had nothing to worry about. But if they hadn't they would be searching for him as soon as they found out he was missing. He zig zagged through the woods hoping that would throw off any alpha who came looking. The sound of the thunder was music to Louis' ears. The rain would wash their scent away completely.

Harry had kept himself pressed against Louis' back, hands gripping tightly to his fur. He didn't know how going away from the valley was a short cut but he trusted the alpha. Louis wouldn't hurt him, he wanted him too. He would take him home and hopefully his father would still want him.

Harry felt like, in a way, all of his dreams were coming true. He had an amazing, beautiful, strong alpha who wanted him and he was away and in the woods. This whole thing was one huge fairy tale and Harry just hoped for a happy ending.

Another thirty minutes of running and zig zagging through the brush and trees Louis finally came to a stop and dropped down to his stomach. Harry quickly took the hint and climbed off of the alphas back and took a few steps back. He watched Louis change back into his human form, giving the smaller boy a smile.

"It's going to rain soon. We need to get into some shelter." He explained gently. Harry nodded in agreement, accepting what his alpha had to tell him. Harry followed Louis a couple more feet into the trees until they reached a small cave, seeming to only big enough for one person. Louis led Harry over and ushered him inside as a loud crack of thunder sounded in the distance. Harry quickly scrambled into the cave and curled up in the corner, trying to make himself even smaller than he was so Louis had enough room.

"I'm going to go find us some food. I'll be back." Louis smiled small after making sure Harry was settled and comfortable. He climbed out of the small cave and stood up before turning back to Harry giving him a stern alpha look.

"Do not, for any reason leave this cave." Louis said sternly, watching as Harry immediately nodded his head obediently. Louis couldn't help but smirk at the Harry.

"Good boy." Louis said with a pleased hum before turning and walking away. The way the words fell from Louis' lips had something stirring in Harry's stomach. His throat went dry and his skin seemed to tingle. Another loud crack of thunder made him jump slightly and scoot further back in the cave while he waited for Louis to come back. It didn't take long for it to start to rain in thick sheets and he hoped Louis would be okay.

Louis came back to the cave his hair and body soaked to the core but his arms filled with fruit. As soon as Louis stepped through the rain and into the cave Harry jumped up and rushed to him, wrapping his arms around him.

"I'm so glad you came back." Harry breathed out a breath of relief, burying his face into the crook of the alphas soaked neck. Louis couldn't help but smile and nuzzle into Harry's curls.

"Of course I came back, do you think I could ever leave you?" Louis spoke gently, leading Harry to the pallet of soft grass and leaves and sitting down with the omega. He passed some of the fruit over to Harry. The younger quickly began scarfing down the fruit. He acted if he hadn't even eaten in weeks. Louis smirked, knowing it was just an early sign of Harry's first heat. He could even smell the strong change in Harry's scent.

After they had finished their food Louis laid down on the pile of grass and pulled Harry to his chest. He couldn't understand the feeling he got when the alpha held the young omega in his arms. It made his stomach do flips his sink tingle. He seemed to crave holding the boy. Louis didn't know if it was Harry's strong scent affecting his instincts or what, but he had to assume that was it, what else could it be?

Harry let out a content sigh into Harry's chest, loving the warmth of Louis' body. He slowly looked up at the beautiful alpha and very shyly leaned up and pressed his lips to Louis'. He felt Louis, pull him close and kiss him back. It felt amazing. Louis moved their lips together, taking the lead. They kissed slowly for a few moments before Harry pulled away.

"Goodnight Lou." He whispered and cuddled back up into Louis. The alpha wrapped his arms tighter around Harry and pressed a gentle kiss to his curls.

"Goodnight Haz." He whispered back. Harry blushed at the nickname, letting his eyes close, feeling suddenly exhausted. Louis held Harry protectively as his own eyes slipped closed, ignoring all of his feelings that he didn't understand.
