A Horse-Shifters Tale (Under Going Minor Editing Of Chapters)

Chapter Twenty-two

Hali's POV
I walked back into the barn after a few minutes feeling a shiver run down my spine. I bit my lip. I felt torn between the two things I loved. My mate and Bryok, he was like my son. I grabbed a shirt out of the tack room and put it on. I hadn't been spending lots of time with Chase and it made me feel bad. I placed the blanket on the floor lying down before carefully pulling Chase off of the stall and onto me. 

The big lump didn't wake as I curled my arms around him. I didn't realise I could love someone as much as I loved him. I pushed his light soft, hair out of his face and kissed him on the cheek. He turned to face me and snuggled into me.

"I love you Chase," I whispered with a small smile pulling at my lips.

I wasn't brave enough to say it to his face yet but somehow I knew he knew.

...........

The morning came and I woke up to a wet something on my face. I opened my eyes to see Chase kissing me happily. This is the best way I could dream off to be woken up. I looked over at Bryok who had a big frown on his face. Someone was jealous. He snorted impenitently and jumped in between me and Chase. Chase rolled over and groaned. Bryok's little hooves had landed in he sensitive area, but he looked proud about it.

"That wasn't nice Bryok," I scolded and his face fell. I bent up to his ears, "But it was funny."

Chase didn't hear the whisper but turned to me with a smile on his face. "So me and Ash have somethings to do today but when we get back how about a walk and lunch on the beach?"

"Don't we have competition practise?" I asked scrunching my face together in concentraition of what day it was.

"Yes but I would prefer to spend time with this beautiful form then your horse form," He muttered placing kisses on me, making me shiver in delight.

Lyra snorted in my head and I gave a small smile, "Lyra doesn't agree with you,"

"Well tell her she is a spoil sport," Chase said getting up and waltzing out of my stall."

I looked at Bryok who was trying to get the food out of the bucket above him and failing miserably. I got up and grabbed it placing a small scoop in with him following close behind. I placed it back in my stall shut the door and went on a search for some clothes.

"Tyler," I called seeing her across the way, I pulled down the shirt to cover my ass and continued on my way towards her, "Do you happen to have any clothes?"

"Yes I put some together in the tack room, they should fit."

"Thanks." I called getting back into the barn and getting change. I decided on a small pair of denim dungarees and a small white top. I looked over the stall door at Bryok who had finished eating,

"What do you want to do today?" I asked him.

He snorted and looked around before I heard him in my head, "I want to play with uncle Sam,"

"Okay, well lets go then,"

I grabbed his small halter opened the door and walked with him towards the paddock. Sam wasn't their though. I walked with him to the other barn and found his halter. Walking the long way to the back of the barn I found him and put on his halter. Walking him with Bryok I placed them both in the paddock.

I walked into the pack house and looked around at the group of people in the kitchen. Standing together by the oven were John and Adler. When the pack spotted me they bowed their heads in respect.

"So what's happening here?" I asked confused.

"I don't know," A short black haired girl snapped, "Just that I spotted the human trying to steal Samuel our prize horse,"
