Blackfeather Woods Redemption

Definitely slapping the mature tag :P

Damien had indeed missed the news about Cyn and Venus' mateship while he was away, and actually not really caring about it when he was around; but what truly picked Damien's interest from Burke's response was the revelation that he had been close to fucking a male once. Damien's eyes picked up Burke's glare, and noticed a faint hint of sorrow as the Alpha turned more serious. It didn't take long for Damien to come to the conclusion that it had been Akela with whom Burke had almost got it on. It would explain the way Akela had escalated the ranks of Blackfeather Woods so quickly and even become a leader without any other apparent reason than that Burke really liked him... But Damien still knew very little about Burke's past, and the mysterious male lover could be virtually any wolf.

Burke remarked that it would be okay for Damien to have any sort of possible sexual interest while he was happy with himself, reinforcing Damien's trust in him. But Damien still had a moral dilemma about his deal with Cicero. The thought made his whole expression change, his ears flattened on his head and his eyes shifted away from Burke and down to the floor.

"I just... I don't want to be alone..." Damien admitted with troubled voice, feeling unbearably weak by saying it.
