Beatrix Three days later. I woke to Ash running circles in my head giving me a headache. What's got you all jumpy? Nothing I'm just excited for today. Why? I ask suspiciously. Oh you'll see. And its gonna be good. Ash says with a wolfish smile. Cutting my link to her, I get up rolling my eyes at her. I walk into my closet and pull on my normal training outfit. When I'm ready to go to training I run downstairs and head out to met my trainee's. Running towards them I see that they are all ready to start for the day. "Alright is everyone here?" I ask them "Yes ma'am." They all yell in unison. "Alright then what are you waiting for permission get going." I yell making them all scramble to begin the morning run. As we began our run I noticed that a few of the trainees were falling behind. I slowed my pace to them and asked "What's going on guys? Your usually at the front of the pack not the back." "We're conserving our energy for when we spar." One says with a devious smirk. "Oh really is that right? Let me guess your going to try and take me on?" I ask showing off by running backwards. Letting out a deep hearty laugh, I turn around and head towards the front of the pack. When we near the end of the run I have everyone sprint to finish. When we have reached the end of the run we circled up like normal. "Alright, any takers on who wants to spar with me?" I ask knowing that only the few boys from earlier will be the takers. "I'll spar with you." the leader of the boys say. We begin to circle each other after I motion him to step forward. Xander As I board the plane I think about how I was unable to met my mate. The only person that I've been waiting for and looking for. For the last year I have gone all over the world to every single pack in search for her. Taking a seat in the large plush chair I let out a sigh. "What's wrong Xander?" Owen my beta asked. "Nothing Owen." I say dejectedly. "Yeah right. I know your upset that we didn't found her. But don't worry we'll find her." He says with as much honesty and sincerity he can muster. "Maybe your right I'm just upset I didn't find her. I'm gonna sleep till we land." I say Owen nods his head and zones into his phone. Few hours later. I'm shacked awake but Owen telling me "Get the hell up! Before I drag you off this damn plane." "Alright you ass I'm getting up." I say swatting his face away from me. Standing up I grab my stuff and head down the steps. Walking over to the black Range Rovers I know my father arranged to pick us up. But what I didn't expect was him stepping out of the middle one. "Welcome home Xander." He says with a smile. "Hey dad." "So did you find her?" He asks. "Does it look like I found her?" I ask sarcastically. "It's alright son maybe it just wasn't your time to find her yet." trying to console me. "Maybe your right lets go home." I say getting into the car. "Your right lets go. Oh and when we get home I have someone I want you to met." He says proudly. "How are they?" "You remember that little girl I told you about the one with the violet eyes." "Yeah, she was the little girl on the front steps of her pack house. Why?" I ask "Well she now lives with us in the castle and helps train the Rose Legion. And she's James daughter." "Really she's James kid?" "Yeah, take a nap I know it was a long trip, I'll wake you when we get home." I nod my head already feeling the sleep take over. Thirty minutes later. I'm forced awake by Quill jumping around in my head. What's up with you? I ask Something very important is going to happen. Quill says with excitement Before I had a chance to ask him what he meant he cuts our link. We pull up to the front of the castle. Hoping out of the car I stretch to get all the kinks out from the trip. "Follow me." My dad says. I nod my head and walk behind him towards the training field. As we near the field I hear cheering and hooting. But the most noticeable was the intoxicating smell of green apples and honey. Quill is screaming in my head mate, mate, mate. A smile spreads across my face making me pick up my pace to reach my mate and see what she looks like. The closer I got to her the more aware of her I grew. When I finally reached the circle of men that surrounded her I saw that she wasn't just fighting one opponent but three at once. I watched as she evaded their attacks as of they were mere child's play. Her resounding laugh sent shivers down my spine. Her laugh is so beautiful. Quill says like a love sick puppy. It was the most beautiful sound I've ever heard. I took her in while she played with the three men. She had beautiful long onyx black hair that even in a ponytail reached her bottom. I saw that she had beautiful white skin and a toned body that I wanted to run my hands down. But when she turned around for a split second I got a glimpse of her beautiful violet eyes that put the most beautiful gem stone to shame. Her smile is what drew me in and kept me her smile made me want to keep it there and protect her no matter what. As love and compassion for my mate built in my chest I took another step forward standing in front of the men now. My mate stops evading and stares back at me it felt as if time stopped and nothing else mattered. With in our single moment of pure happiness she let out a scream that made my heart clench. Pain overtook her features as she fell. I sped towards her trying to catch her before she collided with the ground. I cradled her in my arms hoping the mate bond would be able to less her pain. But another ear shattering scream left her lips. James kneeled beside me trying to take her from me but I just growled at him for even dare thinking he can take my mate from me. My father kneeled beside me and said " Xander give her to James he wont hurt her. She's his daughter, he would never do anything to harm her. Now give her to him so he can figure out why she's in pain." I studied James to see if he would hurt her. When I was satisfied that he wouldn't I began to hand him my mate. But she wasn't having it she clung to me as if I was the only thing keeping her safe and the pain at bay. "My love you must go to your father that's the only way we can figure out why your in pain." I said. "No, I know why I'm in pain." She said with sadness coating her voice. Before I had a chance to ask why, her once black hair burst from its tie and changed to silver. I look on astonished by what I was seeing. "My love are you alright?" I asked the only sentence willing to break free of my lips. She looked at me with her violet eyes that I have already fallen in love with and said "He marked another." Then she was out like a light her hair still glowed silver and I could feel the power radiating off of her. I looked towards her father and mine and asked "What does she mean she marked another?" "She had a mate before you but he rejected her." James said with anger alight in his eyes. "What do you mean a mate before me?" "Your her second chance mate son." my father says. "How about we explain inside. Once we know Beatrix is safe and well." James says walking towards the castle. I stand with Beatrix in my arms and head towards my room knowing she wont be sleeping any where else but with me from now. As I approach my room I kick open the door and lay my beautiful mate on the bed. Step out of the room knowing she needs rest and I need answers I head to my fathers office. Without knocking I enter knowing he'll be waiting for me. "What the hell is going on? And why did you say that I'm my mates second chance mate? I'm her only mate and I don't care what anyone says she's mine and no one else's." I bellow at my father and James. Very calmly my father says "Son you should sit down. I'll tell you what I meant by your her second chance mate. But you must understand Little Flower has had a hard life and she will tell you everything when the time is right." "What do you mean she's had a hard life? Did someone hurt her? I'll kill them if they hurt her." I say seething wit anger. "I know you will but that will not change her past you must be here for now. And if you ever hurt my little girl I'll tear you apart limb form limb. Am I understood?" James asks "Crystal. But I don't even know her name yet." I say to them "Beatrix Lilith Willow. That's her name." James says "Beatrix" I say testing it out on my lips. A grin over comes my face as the name of my beautiful mate. My father gesture for me to sit down. Taking his suggestion I take a seat on the couch opposite James and him. "Well it started a year ago......" My father starts.
