His Mortal Mate

CHAPTER 4

Elisa

A lot of time has passed with me locked up in here, no one is coming for my rescue. I am going to die in here.

Stop with the drama girl, you have gone through worse, this is nothing. My mind scolds me. I feel really hungry, I have been here all day, it's night time now. I have not showed up at the cafeteria the whole day. Why did I have to come to this place, I thought it would be a nice and safe place for me. It turns out that I was so wrong. I met a nightmare of a person, I hate Alpha. Who does he think he is? Is it because he is handsome.

uuuuh! so you think he is handsome, my mind is overjoyed. If it could have legs then it could be jumping right now. Well, I cannot deny that fact, he is cute, the problem is that he is so arrogant.

I resign myself and decide to find a comfortable spot to rest. I have been pacing up and down the whole day, trying to find an escape route, I feel so tired now. At least I had a sweater and my bag. I lay my head on my bag and I coil myself in a position that I do not feel colder than I already am.

I have never been treated this way by anyone, I know I am not that appealing but that doesn’t give him a reason to treat me this way. Why could a person be so cold. I feel my tears streaming down, I feel a lump in my throat as I remember my parents and how happy I was with them around. That animal that attacked them took them away from me. I don’t know how but I drift to sleep.

I cannot hold it anymore, so I take my bike and I head straight to school. I do not alert any of my friends because they would think I am weak. I pack my bike at the gate not to alert anyone. I remove my clothes, put them in a bag and turn into my wolf Torak so I could jump over the fence. Torak carries the bag in his mouth as we jump. Torak is huge so it is so easy for him to jump. I turn immediately we are in, I put on my clothes and ran to the classroom I had left her in.

I open the door and I look around the dark classroom for her. It is so easy to spot her because we always see in the dark. I see her frail body coiled up and she is shivering from the cold. I squat near her and place my hand on her slightly at her arm, I see her relax from the heat I emit. I stay there for quite a while watching her sleeping peacefully. I realize that the tight feeling I had in my chest is gone. I can now breathe properly. I see her stir a little, I know she is feeling my presence and she will soon wake up. I remove my hand from her arm and I leave. From outside I decide to throw something inside so that she can wake up. I watch her from the door as she wakes up and when she realizes that the door is open, she picks her bag and runs outside. She looks so frightened though. Maybe because it is night time. I decide to follow her to at least make sure she is safe.

What has come over me, or maybe it is because I am an Alpha and I am born to protect. That is the only logical explanation. I follow her discretely, I guess she is sensing someone following her because she often stands and looks behind, unfortunately she is human. There is no way she can see me because I am in the dark. I will have such a long way back because I left my bike at school and I think she lives far from school.

It is so boring just following her behind, I get so bored easily. So I decide to tease her a little, I let Torak take over just a little. I growl just enough to make her hear me. I hear how her heart is racing faster, it is hilarious. She looks behind and starts running. I run after her laughing, she is so scared, poor her.

I hate it when you do this you know. Torak scolds me.

Chill Torak, I am just having fun I think back to him.

My wolf and I are like two different entities, he doesn't like threatening and bullying people. I on the other hand, I enjoy always. Especially when instilling fear to my subjects. I remember Torak warning me not to sleep around and wait for our mate. That I should preserve my body for only her. It is so hard though. I tried once but I couldn't anymore. When I sleep with anyone Torak gets so angry that he doesn't surface for a long time.

Elisa runs and I see her wobble, uh oh, she is going to fall down. I try to reach her before she falls but to no avail. I hear her scream as she tries to wake up, I smell blood.

You see I told you Torak says mad.

It's no big deal Torak I think back to him. He is such a drama king.

Me drama king. He says annoyed.

I am sorry Torak, truly sorry. He doesn't answer I know he is mad at me.

I decide to help her but before I can reach her, some guy comes to her rescue.

“ Hey are you okay." He says helping her up. Good thing she fell where the street lights are, no one could have seen her except me. So I hide in the dark side so as not to alert them.

“ Thank you, I thought someone was following me so I started running." She says in between sobs. He helps her up but she cannot stand properly. He looks around and laughs.

“ There is no one miss. I think you sprained your leg. Let me help you. Hop on my back I take you to where you stay." What if he was the one following me? What have I gotten myself into, I just wish I had slept at school instead.

“ No thanks, I will manage." She says trying to walk, but she almost falls again. I feel a tinge of pity for her. She is so frail, I wonder if she even eats.

What a stubborn girl. He just picks her up and walks away with her in his arms.

“ Don't be stubborn, just tell me where you live so I can take you." He says chuckling.“ I do not bite you know." he adds.

I watch them as they disappear into the dark. I decide to head back. Since Torak is mad I will have to walk in my human form. I feel so mad though that she had to be helped by someone else. I wonder why.
