THE HUNTERS

Finding her

I was about to voice my question out loud when I was hit with the most amazing scent I ever smelled. I was looking around to see if it was coming from one of the demons when I saw the most beautiful woman walked toward me. It was her! She was the woman in my dreams.

Oh my God! It was her, here right in front of me. She looked like a Goddess. She was captivated. The moment I smelled and my eyes laid on her, she got my undivided attention. I most guessed, she didn't only get my attention because my opponent's punches had stopped, even his words were quiet.

As she walked toward us in such grace as if she owned the place, I felt like time just slow down and had to whole time to analyze her. She was on black leather pants and jackets that embraced her hourglass body shape so well. Her long black hair was a tight slick ponytail like there was not a single hair out of place. Her tan skin only crowned her beauty.

The closer she got, the better scent of her I got. Her pomegranate, strawberry, and vanilla scent were highly intoxicated to her. However, I got a whiff of something else she was human not supernatural. I tried to sniff her again to see if I was correct but nothing changed. She was indeed a human but her aura was not weak. She was not a weak human. ‘Then why the moon goddess paired me up with a human. I was not just a lycan but a hybrid. How will she take all that?’ I questioned myself

“Don't you dare say something stupid or reject her. She is ours, she was made for us, our better half. She is perfect.” voiced my lycan, Mikael in my head.

Michael was the perfect lycan soul. He was all apprehensive, understanding, and not controlling. We work together in sync. I never made any decision without his input. That was why when I failed, we both failed and didn't judge the other. In a way, Mikael was as much as a brother than a shared body soul. He rarely talked unless it was important. His silence was his best way to approve my decision. Hearing him right only meant he already liked her.

‘I am guessing someone is already smitten’ I teased him.

‘Do you know or remember how long we been waiting for that moment. To find her or for her to show up in our lives. If the moon goddess chose her for us, there must be a reason for that. And what is not to like? Are looking at her?’ said Mikael

I presumed she must have questioned something when I heard my opponent growled at her. I introduced myself and asked her why was she here and why the humans were involved in our business.

She was about to say something. I was about to hear her voice when someone spoke in her ear through her earpiece. I didn't catch what the person said because I was yet again tranced by her beauty.

Then my opponent has been rude to her by saying “ who am I is none of your concern and the riot is between me and that stupid alpha.”

My blood boiled cause of the way he talked to her so rudely and for calling me stupid in front of my mate. I was about to put him in his place when he hit her with a ball of fire and sent her flying to a boulder. I was shocked by his attack all I could do was yelling no and let Mikael took over for a minute and sucker punch the demon.

I ran toward her and another guy was running toward her too. He got to her before me, my jealousy was at his peak. I was about to yank him off her when I heard him called her sister. I relaxed and kneeled next to them to check on her. I was surprised to see her clothes were all that burn. The fire hit her in her shoulder but her asking was fine not a scratch.

Both her brother and I were distracted by her and not realizing that the demon was closing upon us. I heard his growl, turned around seeing him with a massive fire in her hand, and was aiming for us. Then fear crawled me because of my mate and her brother but what happened next shocked both her brother and me.

My mate’s body burst into fire. She fastly got up and punch the guy away from us while murmured some words. However, her fire was not the normal red and yellow but green. The color of fire that could only be ignited by witches. My mate was not human but a witch.

‘Then why does she smell like a human before’ asked Mikael.

‘I don't know. Maybe we can find out later. I guess that is why she was afraid when that nasty demon snarled at her.’ I answered

Talking about the demon, I looked around to see what happened to him, only to find both his minions and him were long gone. I presumed my mate’s punch did more damage than mine that he could keep up and went away.

Her brother was going to touch her when I stopped him and showed him the fire all over her and around. As the fire died down, so did she because the next she was falling but this time I caught her. She fainted. Maybe the spell she used was too much for her body or mind to handle so the both shut down.

Her brother's face was displayed his worries and didn't know what to do. I offered to take her inside the packhouse. Laying her down a little until she came back to her senses because I didn't her to be confused by where she was when she woke up cause I saw it happened before. Witches showcased immense power and faint but they woke up they were a little disoriented. Her brother agreed and we took her inside. I was annoyed that both her brother and her didn't show any fear when we growled. I was guessing it was normal since she was a witch maybe he is a warlock too. Therefore why were they doing here in my territory? Witches and wolves were not enemies but we were not dancing buddies either so one could pop up in the other territory. I just wonder why and Mikael was a little on edge because of our mate he still kept his cool.

Currently, my beautiful mate who I still didn't know her name or how she came to be at my territory. Oh, my goddess, she was so beautiful even more while she was sleeping. She had been sleeping from 10 am till now which was 2 pm.

I was with her the whole time. Unable to move from my spot because I didn't want her to wake up behind my back. Mikael was still there making small conversations with me the whole time like he was trying to keep is awake or distracted a little.

Her brother who I came to know the name was Cairo and he was my mate’s twin but he never said why they were at my territory and I didn't ask either, I was waiting patiently for my beautiful mate to open her eyes.

Our pack doctor, Henry checked her and informed us that she was fine that there was nothing broken or hurt, that she was only drained after her unexpected energy blasted. He also said that it might take long before she woke up but didn't say how long to be exact.

Before leaving, I ordered Henry to keep everything to himself because no one in my pack had seen her using the witch power. They all assumed that the demons left because of a blow I gave their leader and thought that my mate was collateral damage and Cairo was a witness.

Whenever a human witnessed a supernatural confrontation within our pack, I always compelled them like make sure to erase any supernatural memories from them to keep our existence secret from the human world.

Cairo was playing it cool not showing any worry or anxiety but I could clearly smell it from him and his face was showing everything whenever he looked at her.
