It's been exactly two weeks and two days since the search began, everyday felt like a lifetime and my hope of finding her dwindled. Bolt was becoming increasingly difficult to control so I stayed in my penthouse apartment all day so Austin had to handle the office. I just couldn't bring myself to accept the fact that I lost my mate. But then again, if she's truly my mate, why didn't she sense the mate bond the way I did? Why couldn't she pick up on my scent? These thoughts were driving me insane, I curse the moon goddess for playing tricks with me like this. I am not a toy and I refuse to be played with.
Suddenly the door to my room was opened without a single knock, I was ready to ounce on whoever came through but then I saw Austin. "How dare you come into my room without knocking!!!" I yelled, I really didn't care at this point.
"I'm sorry Alpha but it was important." He sounded with urgency in his voice. I stared at him waiting for an answer. "Your mate has been found." It was like time stopped, all the pain in my heart suddenly went away, I could breathe effortlessly, I looked at Austin to make sure this wasn't some cruel joke because if it was, someone's going to have to die for it. “Unfortunately, your mate's human", Austin said. I didn't know how to feel about it, was it bad? "Take me to her right now", I commanded. Austin led the way to the car, as soon as I got in, he sped off. After about an hour, we arrived in front of a high school, Roosevelt high school. I was confused, "What are we doing here?" "The school day will be over in a few seconds, you'll understand". I still wasn't pleased, I wanted my mate and I wanted her now, I was about to ask Austin where my mate was before I lose my temper when I caught her scent. The smell of summer, gentle sun and open skies. I looked out of the window towards the school and I saw her with the same set of people as in the bar. She was perfect with a white long sleeve round neck shirt, a black high waist flair skirt that perfectly accentuate her tiny waist and hourglass shape. Her perfectly smooth legs made to suddenly want to rub my hands through them, she was smiling, she had the cutest dimples I have ever seen, there isn't anyone I wouldn't kill for those dimples. "Elsa", Austin said. "What?" I questioned without looking away from her. "Her name is Elsa, she is human, she is 17years old, very much underage and given the fact that she's human, she can't feel the mate bond so you'll have to get her to fall in love with you, I don't know how", Austin explained slowly knowing how this news would affect me. My mate was an underage human and she couldn't feel the mate bond. Why would the moon goddess play such a cruel prank on me?
I saw her looking towards the car, I thought for a second that maybe just maybe she felt the bond, maybe she knows that we were mates. She took a step towards the car, my heart beat increased with anticipation. She was about to take the next step when one of the girls around her grabbed her hand and led her away but she looked back before entering another car and leaving.
Bolt howled at the back of my head, "I don't care how young she is or she's human, she's my mate and I will wait for her even if it takes a hundred years. "I'll find a way, there must be a way" "But what if there isn't. Most girls her age won't like men like you, you'll be a creep to her", Austin said, I would have been mad if it wasn't how sad he looked. I knew he cared about me and being a werewolf, he understand how I feel right now. "Then I will love her from afar", and I meant that. If the moon goddess wants to play this cruel game with me then I'll make the rules. Austin drove us back home and I went to sleep dreaming of having my mate in my arms. She telling me she loves me and blushing, me touching her smooth legs and her dimples. I knew it was a dream but I didn't want to wake up from it.
I was still fast asleep when Bolt woke up, he reminded me that we have to go see our mate. I got dressed and went to the car. Bolt was whimpering like a puppy, I chuckled, only her can turn an alpha into a puppy. I drove to her school and I was in time because as soon as I turned the engine off to wait, she got out the car and she was beautiful. She wore a flowery knee length dress, It has tiny straps so all her arms were bare, it was smooth and had milky complexion. I wonder if it is as soft as it looks. She looked at me again but then went into the building. I drove to work afterwards.
