A plan revealed and a date

Humphrey's POV:

I woke up to the sun in my eyes, the birds chirping and Winston and Garth with some Alphas standing outside my den. Wait what? I quickly bolted awake and asked. "What are you all doing here?" Winston walked forward and said. "I know you may not like this idea but I would like you to train these wolfs." My mouth hit the floor from shock before I laughed and said. "Yeah good one Winston." I then turned around to go back into my den to relax a little when he put his paw on my shoulder to stop me. I turn to see him giving me serious look as he said. "This is no joke Humphrey we can always use stronger wolfs like you in the pack." I looked at him shocked then frowned and said. " The answer is still no." Then Candu stepped in and said. "Oh come on. What ya got to lose?" I answered. "I have nothing to lose but I also have nothing to gain." Winston gave me another serious look before saying. "Alright if you train them you will have authority over them, they will have to follow your training exactly as you say no matter how tough it gets." I smiled and began to think about it before he said. "I will also give you a promotion so you will outrank them." I smiled and said. "You've got yourself a deal." Then me and Winston shook paws on it and I said. "They will all have to sleep in the same den and we start training tomorrow." Winston smiled then said. "Sounds good to me." Then he left with the alphas before I heard a rustling in the bushes. I turned to see Kate walking towards me. I smiled then said. "Good morning Kate." She smiled back and said. "Good morning Humphrey. I just came by to ask if you wanted to go out tonight." I smiled at her then said. "Sounds good to me but you might want to speak to Candy, Sweets, Reba and Janice." She gave me a confused look before asking. "Why?" I answered. "Because when I came back to my den last night to find them checking it out my den while talking about one of them getting to bear my pups." Kate looked at me shocked before growling and saying. "Those bloody punks." I calmed her down before saying. "I will see you tonight okay." She smiled before saying. "Sounds good to me." She then turned and walked away. I decided that I might as well go get some exercise so I went down to a nearby river.

When I got to the river I Got there I put my paw in to feel the temperature of the water and to see the current. The temperature was cold and the current was very strong. I smiled at this because it was just the way I liked it. I then quickly jumped in and began to swim against the current to keep fit. I did this for an hour before I saw some logs coming down the river and swam to shore. Seeing the logs coming down gave me an idea. I decided I would use the logs like the crocodiles Duma made me jump on back in Africa. I smiled at the memory of my old friend then as the logs were passing I quickly jumped onto each one doing a different and more complicated move. I did this for two hours before the logs stopped. When I got back to shore I closed my eyes and took in a deep breath before I heard cheering. I opened my eyes to see Candy ,Sweets, Reba and Janice cheering for me. I frowned at them then asked. "Are you girls following me." They all got scared looks before answering "No." I chuckled at their reaction before they began to circle me. I kept a sharp eye on them. As they circled me Candy said. "You know Humphrey the moonlight howl is tonight and we were thinking that we could all go together." As they rubbed their tails under my chin. I was beginning to get nervous so I knew I had to come up with a way out of this so I decided to put an end to it once and for all. "Listen girls I am sorry to say this to you but I want you to leave me alone from now on." They all got shocked looks on their faces before they all asked in unison. "WHY?" I frowned then said. "Because to be honest I love Kate and I never stopped loving her." Then surprisingly they all smiled so I asked. "Why are you girls smiling." Then I heard a voice behind me say. "Because everything went according to plan." I turned around to see none other than Lilly with a smile on her face. I then asked. "What plan?" Lilly smiled then answered. "I knew you still had feelings for Kate so I had the girls help me reveal that you were still in love with Kate." To say I was shocked was an understatement. Then I asked her "Lilly you tricked me?" She smiled and said. "Yes I did." Hearing this I couldn't help but laugh as the girls began to join in the laughter. When it stopped I realized that the sun was already beginning to set so I said. "Would you look at the time I better get ready for the moonlight howl." I then quickly ran off to a nearby pond.

When I got to the pond I quickly began to clean myself by grooming my fur so it was nice and smooth. Then I quickly ran to the moon light howl rock. When I got there I saw most of the single guys crowding around someone asking her to howl with them. I decided to see who they were crowding around and began to approach them Kate came out and my jaw dropped because she was currently drop dead gorgeous. I'm guessing she noticed the look on my face because she giggled. I quickly snapped out of my trance and said. "Wow Kate you look gorgeous." She smiled and said. "You look pretty good yourself." I smiled then we began to walk up the rock. As we were walking up I decided to start a conversation and asked. "So who were all those guys?" Kate answered. "Oh those were some guys who wanted to howl with me and to be honest while you were gone they kept trying to get me to go out with them." I growled hearing this but calmed down when she said. "but I turned them all down because I love you Humphrey even though I know you-" but I cut her off by pressing my lips against hers locking her in a kiss. I knew she was surprised by this but after a few seconds she kissed back. when I pulled away she smiled and asked. "I thought I had to earn your love back." I smiled and said. "You already have and that whole earn my love back was just a test." She smiled before asking. "What about Reba, Janice, Candy and Sweets?" I laughed before saying. "Your sister is an evil genius at times." Kate giggled at this before I said. "Let's go find a howling spot." She nodded at this. We then found a good spot and began to howl the night away.

When we were done clouds were beginning to gather which meant one thing and that would be rain. It was then Kate said. "We should probably get inside." I nodded before saying. "Let's get to my den. It's the closest den to howling rock." Sadly just as I finished saying that there was a flash of lightning, a roar of thunder and it began to rain. We quickly ran to my den to get out of the rain. Surprisingly when we got to my den we found the wolves I was meant to train tomorrow having a conversation . I frowned seeing this before asking. "What are you all doing in my den?" They all turned to see me and Kate standing there. They all looked at me before a Hutch stepped out of the group and asked. "Did you design this den completely." I answered "Yes I did. Now why are you all here?" Then Garth stepped out and answered. "We were on our way to tell you that Winston is having us stay in the den next door but we got caught in the rain so we ran into your den trying to escape the rain." I replied by saying. "Okay. Well I guess you guys are going to have to stay until the storm calms down." They all nodded at this before Candu stepped out and asked. "Well while we're here can you tell us what the room with holes in the roof is?" I nodded and said. "That room is my planting room. The holes in the roof allow sunlight and water to come in and feed the plants." They then all said. "Oh" in unison before Garth asked. "Why in the world would you want plants to grow in your den?" I replied by saying. "So I can have quick access to them and so no one can eat them or touch them." The guys and Kate got confused looks before Kate asked. "What's wrong with people touching or eating them?" I looked at her before saying. "Some of the plants I'm growing can kill a person or leave them paralysed." All their jaws dropped at this. While they were shocked I looked outside to see that the rain had calmed down so I turned to them and said. "Looks like the rains calming down so you can leave now." The boys nodded then left but I noticed that Kate stayed. I looked at her then asked. "Shouldn't you leave now?" She smiled at me and said. "No I think I should spend the night here." She then rubbed her tail underneath my chin then went into my room. I then entered my room to see her sitting on my bed as she gave me a wink. I knew what she wanted and I knew I couldn't fight it so I went along with it. Sophist to say we had fun that night.
