Alpha's Mysterious Luna.

6 Alexander

What In the hell just happened? I should have been burnt alive. We should have been burnt alive. Or at the very least electrocuted. Instead it had felt very much like an icy breeze curling around my limbs. The same odd sensation, occurring, when we were lifted off the ground.

Her scent fills my nose and I shift my attention. I look over at her, staring silently into her face for a few moments. Her bright green eyes staring back at me. I have so many questions I want to ask her.

Adrian is dancing around inside my head. “MATE! MATE! MATE!” He keeps saying over and over. I want to argue with him, but I can’t. She IS my mate. I can feel it, the bond pull between us is strong.

"Yes Adrian. Our Mate." Adrian howls loudly in my head, validated by my agreement. Even though she is human, she should definitely be feeling something too. Though it's different for other species shes will still feel our mate bond.

I lay in the grass, with her next to me, and I know, whoever she is, however she has come to me, she is mine. I stand slowly, lifting her off the ground, like a new bride. She wraps her arms around my neck, without hesitation. I stand still for a moment, marveling at the feeling of holding my mate, of her arms around my neck.

I look down at her and smile gently. She looks into my eyes, and puts her hand on my cheek. "Alexander." She whispers softly, and then looses consciousness. "What happened?! Is she okay?!" Adrian shouts sounding afraid.

"I don't know!" I say. Now, I'm afraid. "Damnit!" I say loudly. I begin walking her very quickly back to the pack hospital, unaware of just how many people had witnessed what happened. At this point it didn’t matter.

This is their Luna. I found her. Finally. "Technically, she found us Alexander." Adrian says. He's right, she found us. Maybe that's how she knows my name. Could it be possible she came looking for me? I shake my head, I can worry about this later.

As I am jogging towards the hospital with her in my arms Malekai comes running full speed towards me and on instinct, without thinking I begin to growl, snarl.

“Woah, boss.” Malekai says, his hands up in the air. “ What happened?” he asks. I stop and partially turn in his direction.

"I'm sorry man It's- she's, I need Doctor Baldwin!" I shout and shake my head growling. I turn back, and a second before I begin to walk towards the hospital again, Adrian growls, and says “MATE.” loudly from deep within me.

Malekai who is still standing motionless, shakes his head and a look of surprise crosses his face, his eyes wide. He quickly follows after me. I take her back down the hall and into the room she had been in before.

I look around trying to find a place to sit but there are no chairs. I refuse to let her go at this point, so I have no choice but to sit on the bed as best I can with her in my arms.

“Malekai go and get the Doctor.” I say using my Alpha voice on him. He frowns for a moment but nods his head and goes out and down the hall looking for Dr. Baldwin.

I shake my head, immediately feeling bad for doing that. I didn't need to use my Alpha voice and command him, he would have done it anyway. I'm being overly sensitive.

I look down at her, staring quietly. She's really here. I sigh leaning my head against hers, breathing in her scent. Please Goddess let her be okay.

"Dr Baldwin is the best Alexander. He'll fix our mate." Adrian says positively. I sigh again. choosing not to reply. I'm the damn Alpha, and I feel helpless. I hate feeling helpless.

Malekai comes back in with the doctor trailing behind him. A confused look on his face. “Alpha Alexander? Please, can you put her down so I can examine her?” Dr. Baldwin says politely. I look at the doctor confused and without warning Adrian begins to growl deep and low.

Malekai steps forward and says, “Hey Boss, it’s cool, it’s just the Doc.” I look at him again and realize how overdramatic Adrian and I are being. I nod my head and focus. Lots of wolves have mates and they aren’t this protective. Are they?

I'm just not willing to put her down. The Doctor can examine her just fine while she is in my arms, and he seems to understand as much. He gets to work checking her blood pressure and doing a few other tests. He determines she most likely fainted. Between her injuries, and the incident outside that had been described to him, her body had just overloaded due to the stress.

“She really needs to be here for at least a few more days. A week if its up to me. She really took a beating. Her body can not handle any more.” Dr Baldwin says seriously.

I sigh. I am not leaving her alone. Not here. I am her mate. She needs me. "She needs us Alex. She finally here, and she's hurt. We need to be with her. We can't leave her. Where she goes we go." Adrian and I are in complete agreement. "Whatever you think is best Doc." I say a half smile on my face, greatful she is going to be okay.

“Hey, Malekai, can you go to the pack house and grab some of my stuff? If she is not leaving, then neither am I. Adrian will fight me for control if I try and leave her anyway. We need to be near her.” I say to him.

Malekai shakes his head at me, and says, "Sure Alex. Whatever you need man." I nod in his direction greatfully.

"Thanks Malekai, and hey, sorry about, you know, all this." I say to him, half smiling again, trying to sound sincere.

He nods back and says, "No problem bro. I totally get it. It took a month before my wolf Max would let Angie out of our site." I smile and watch him leave.

As Dr. Baldwin walks out, he turns to me expressing how very important it is that I get some sleep. “Alpha Alexander, as truly amazing as it is that you have found your mate, she will sleep for at least another ten hours. Sir If I had the power to, I would order you to bed. That's how badly you are pushing yourself. You’ve been awake all night, and I know you were up the night before as well. Please, sleep. I’ll let no one come in except for myself.” He says and turns the light off, closing the door behind him.

Alone with my mate. I look down at her. I study her face, trying to memorize every little bit of her. She has beautiful long black hair, and eyelashes. Her skin is soft and creamy beige. Her face is sprinkled with freckles, and her pink lips nearly perfect, but for a small cut in the center of her bottom one.

I bury my face in her neck, tangling my hand in her long black hair and breathing in deep. As I hold her against me I wish she'd would wake so I could look into those amazing emerald green eyes again. She is the most beautiful thing we have ever seen.

I look at her again and I frown. I lightly touch the right side of her face. It is really bruised, a mix of blue and purple. It looks painful and Adrian growls angrily, and says, “It needs to die. It hurt our mate. We NEED to find It. WE need to kill it.”

I nod and sigh deeply. "I know we have to Adrian, and believe me, we will. but right now this is where I want to be. Where we need to be." I tell him.

Adrian whines quietly, agreeing with me. "Yes. Mate." he says settling back down. I slowly sweep her hair aside and I gently brush my lips against the swollen purple bruise on her face. I breathe in deep the scent of her. I gently lean my head against hers again. Goddess I love her already.

I stay this way for some time being completely comforted by touching her. As hard as I've been trying to fight it, my need for sleep begins to overtake me. I yawn and decide it should be okay for me to sleep for a little while.

I slide down on my back, lifting her slowly onto my chest and wrapping my arms firmly around her tiny body. It feels like she belongs here, her body on mine. "She does belong here Alexander." Adrian says to me.

I frown wishing Adrian would stop listening to me think. He always right though. I smile. I feel so much different than I did an hour ago, because of her.

I didn’t know all this time what I was missing, not having my mate at my side. How could I? I thought I would always be in the world alone, and I was alright with that.

I believed I was a strong Alpha. That I was fine without a mate. That this pack is still strong without a Luna. I was wrong. So wrong. I have always been waiting for her. I know all of these things and more by just looking at her, and being close to her. I am no longer alone.

That feeling alone is nearly overwhelming. Filling me with emotions I have yet to name. I can barely wait until she wakes. I have so much to say to her. I have never been so tired and excited at the same time.

I yawn again, staring at the ceiling for a few minutes holding her proudly against me. I close my eyes and eventually, my thoughts of her lead to dreams, as her warmth and the sound of Adrian purring inside of my head, puts me into a deep sleep.
