Hunter POV
She fled the class again out the door and straight to her car I didn’t try to follow her this time. I had a lot on my mind needed time to think didn’t even know what to say to her now. She’s engaged how could she be engaged! She’s only 20 and she’s MINE! An involuntary growl escaped my throat I looked around to see if anyone noticed. But anyone close enough to hear was either on their phone or rushing to their next class and didn’t pay me any attention.
“So that was intense” a voice behind me said. I turned around to see Dan following slightly behind me no doubt not wanting to get to close sensing the anger rolling off me.
“Engaged can you believe this s**t? how can this be happening? She’s only 20! I don’t know what I’m going to do shes human she doesn’t understand the mate bond and she’s been with this guy for 3 years! god I want to find him and rip him to shreds!” I growled again and I could feel my animal side fighting to take over to hunt and kill the man that dared to touch my mates heart!
“I feel for you man I do that s**t sucks but you need to control yourself you are scaring her and she is never going to let you in she’s never going to give you a chance to get close to her if you keep coming at her like that!” Dan scolded me.
“Your right I just can’t think straight! All I want is to take her, to mark her, to make her mine. The pull I feel is overwhelming my senses and I’m having trouble control my desire and my anger.” I sighed I needed to go for a run blow off some steam clear my head. “I’m gonna go for a run I’ll see you later man” I told Dan as I headed for my motercycle to ride home and prepare myself for a run.
I went home and I waited for night to fall running in wolf form in the middle of the day was to dangerous even with the ability to move fast the odds of being spotted were to high! In the old days when there were more mystics they could cloke us make us invisible to the human eye but the mystics had died out or disappeared or been hidden no one really knew they were basically myths now.
I couldn’t stop pacing it was like my skin was burning my whole body itching with the need to be close to her! My inner beast fighting to get out to find her.
I had heard of the mate bond, heard of the power and pull it had but the insanity I felt the desire, the need, was beyond explanation! One could not understand this until it was felt!
Without her I would die. I would explode. Without her I would go insane! I always thought I would be able to control it, I swore I would never be like my father and yet here I am obsessed with a women I barely know that is promised to someone else!
SMASH.. the glass in my hand that once held half a bottle of vodka hit the wall.
“MINE! MINE! MINE!”, I began chanting growling as I shook
Hair started to grow on my arms. I was losing control!
Why why did it have to be this way?
Who was this girl?
Why was she chosen for me?
Out the window it was almost dark. I could run now, I let the shift overtake me…
All sanity left me I was a blur filed by need, my need of her! The beast was in control! I was the wolf running faster then I could remember ever moving through the hills, the Santa Monica mountains.
It was funny to think LA is such a developed area so many people and yet so many mountains so much empty space.
I moved though them above pacific palisades through the mountains past cities and towns I had never seen, I finally stopped in the mountains above a small gated community not sure where I was exactly but sure of why I was there.
Sanity was returning to me. I could smell her the most beautiful smell of jasmine and raspberries and a twist of orange blossom.
Everything came into focus my werewolf powers gave me excellent vision and hearing I locked in on her house blocking out everything else and I listened as she spoke to her fiancée
“Oooowww ooo ooowwwww” I howled out in pain the thought crippling me!
Why? The questions came back who was she why her?
Did the moon goddess hate me this much wasn’t what happened with my parents enough torture what more could she want to punish me for?
What had I done to deserve all this torment ?
“Mine” the beast in me cried out!
I refocused on her she was taking talking about today talking about me…
“It made uncomfortable I don’t understand what was wrong with him! It’s not normal to stare like that and why did I feel like I was suffocating, I don’t think I can go back to that class! It’s just summer school, I can just drop it I have the morning class I don’t think I can sit though another class with him” Anna told her fiancé as all her words came out in a rush her heart rate beating rapidly.
She was going to drop the class! She didn’t want to see me again how could this be happening, I felt broken.
She’s supposed to love me I’m supposed to be the center of her world
But she was human she didn’t feel the bond I felt it wasn’t the same for her.
I was destined to suffer the same fate as my father
Why…
I resigned to just take in her smell one last time to go back to my apartment and sulk in my disappointment that she didn’t want me the way that I did her. I began to breath in and inhale her smell taking a deep breath as I did I smelled something else mixed in with her smell it was the smell of another alpha.
My blood started to boil again my heart pounding so loud I could barely hear myself think!
Theres another alpha in the house with her! I came back to my senses focusing on the house and everyone in it but it was just her and her fiancé! Her fiancé was an alpha what the hell did he think he was doing with my mate?
The beast inside me came alive he wanted to barge into the house and rip him to shreds I was barely able to keep him rained in desperately trying to maintain my sanity what the hell is going on My mate was engaged to another alpha what was another alpha doing engaged to a human she isn’t his mate she is MINE what is he doing with her? I started to think this was all in elaborate plan who’s I didn’t know but I was going to find out!
I’ll kill him if I have to, she is MINE MINE MINE!!!
“Owwww owwwww owwwww owwww” My howl rang out the pain clear and evident in it to any wearwolf and I knew he heard it. He knew I was here and that I was coming for him..
