The Moon Goddesses Mated Granddaughter

Chapter 3: Protecting Her

Xavier's Perspective

Today was going to be different, I don't know how but it is. I wanted to change up my morning just a bit so instead of driving my car I walked and took a different path. Ok so maybe I didn't change up the way I got to school and the turns I took weren't entirely because I wanted to switch up my routine, it also had to do with the fact that I didn't want to run into a certain someone.

"Hey baby!" Lindsey yelled as she frantically ran towards me.

"Please don't call me 'baby'," I said sourly,

"Why?" Lindsey whined

"We already talked about why Lins-

"Fine!" she huffed.

"One, why are you walking instead of taking one of your many flashy cars? Two, why are you walking this way to school?" 

'One, I wanted to change something in my morning routine. Two, to avoid you but as you can see that obviously didn't work' I said to myself. 

"I don't know, for fun maybe?" I said, not at all focused on our conversation. I wanted to figure out what was going to make today different from every other regular day for me. I guess I'll just have to wait and see. BUT IM SO IMPATIENT! Maybe I would do good on a test for the first time. Maybe meet someone new? Maybe meet my mate? No no and especially no to the last one. The chances of me finding my mate are 1 out of the ENTIRE WEREWOLF POPULATION! I started to become frustrated as my brain fumbled through all the outcomes when Lindsey yelled,

"XAVIER! ARE YOU LISTENING?!"

"Sorry what?, Oh-umm no." Her face became red with anger, I held back my laughter as Tinkerbell popped in my head to imagine her.

"UH!" She turned to face the other side of the road but got completely distracted from me when she saw her friends walking on the other side of the road, "I'm gonna go and walk to school with people that will ACTUALLY listen to me." She whipped her hair aggressively in my face then crossed the street. I didn't care, I know I was there future Alpha and should be more demanding but it's just not how my parents raised me and look at my father and mother the current Alpha and Luna of Blue Moon pack. Our pack is the most powerful, not because we fought for this position, but because we are allied with multiple other packs around the world plus the fact that my father and mother made wise decisions, we only fought when completely necessary. They were the kindest people and were deeply in love since they were mates, I have always wanted a mate to love and treat right but finding your mate is incredibly difficult in our society so I don't have my hopes up. I pulled my headphones out of my pocket and started listening to soothing music as I continued my walk to school, I was pulled out of my trance when the strongest, sweetest smell hit me. It was a mixture of vanilla, floral, and a bit of mint.

'I think it's our mate! But we can't be sure until we make physical contact with her, if we feel sparks then we can be sure." My wolf Zeus said cautiously.

"Ok well let's just find where they are and who they are," I replied.

"Let's go then!" Zeus yelled anxiously, I smelled the air following the scent as it leads me down the halls of my school building that I basically ran to. Some people waved and greeted me, me not being rude, I nodded and smiled back but continued the search. I weaved by people quickly, wanting to find the owner of the delicious scent that illuminated from them. The stronger it got, the quicker my pace came until I was almost running. I was almost there until my friends from the football team stopped me,

"YOOO, WHAT'S UPPP!?!?" Trent hollered to me

"Nothing much just heading to my locker," I said quickly

"Why are practically sprinting though?" Jason asked

"Umm-I have that test in math that I didn't study for so I was going to do a last-minute review before then."

"Ok, why? Ha, I mean you actually care?" Andrew said confused

"It's Important, if not then he can get kicked off the team for bad grades." Blake the pack's future beta, also known as my best friend, states.

"Exactly so I got to go, bye." I wave a walk away swiftly getting anxious as the scent faded, the closer I got to my possible mate the more intoxicating it got till soon it was so strong that I knew I was in the same hall as her.

 I looked up through the crowds searching for her as I continued walking until someone bumped into me, I caught her by her wrist and pulled her to me to further prevent her from falling further. Sparks shot up from my hand and that's when I knew I held me mate. Her face was inches from mine, her beauty stunned me that caused me to stand still in my place. Her face was small and round, she has light skin that was complemented by her thick, dark hair that curled down to her waist. Her eyelashes full and long, her eyes a striking blue that was as bright as comets, her full pink lips that were parted letting out ragged breaths. The smell made it hard to think, her closeness was really testing my self-control. She broke eye contact when people stared at us but instead the reaction most girls would get when all the attention was on them, which would be to gloat, she shied away from it. She yanked her wrist from my hold and took a step back, I already missed her warmth and the sparks that shot through my body when we touched. I was too distracted by her presence that I didn't even realize she dropped her books until she bent down and began to collect them. I offered her my hand to help her up but she denied it, I felt a pang of hurt go through my chest. Why didn't she take my hand? Does she not like us? Does she not want us? I examined her face intently, searching for answers until the fact that we had just met came to me. I also figured out while thinking that she was obviously human because I haven't heard her wolf call out to Zeus. She had a weird aura though, I wonder what that's about. I didn't care that she was human, I already loved her. I gave her a big smile which she reacted by looking down at the ground, she looked like she was trying hard to think,

"S-sorry, I wasn't looking where I was g-going," She whispered, her angelic voice was so beautiful that I lost my train of thought for a second before responding.

"It's ok, it was an accident," I said as soft as I could hoping to comfort her, I saw goosebumps rise on her arms and that's when I looked her body, and my goddess was it beautiful. She wore a choker and necklace that showed off her neck, she had a grey crop top that her breasts lifted to reveal her flat, toned stomach, she had on high-waisted jeans that hugged her curves and butt perfectly, the holes in the jeans showed off parts of her long, smooth legs, she wore converses that were so tiny that my hand wouldn't even fit. She was so tiny and fragile, I mean I would be scared to hug her for I could easily break her tiny frame. Her body froze board stiff, that's when I realized I was checking her out with her watching me. I looked back up to her eyes and unintentionally made them go gentle so I wouldn't scare her off.

"Are you new here, I haven't met you before?" 

"Y-yes. I just moved here from Alaska." She stuttered adorably

"Hmm, what's your name? I'm Xavier," I said and moved my hand out to shake hers. 

"I-I'm Annikah, but I go by Ana," she said as she took my hand in hers, well more like mine in hers since her hands were incredibly tiny. The sparks shot up in our hands and I could tell she felt them too because her body flinched for a small second. She looked at me for my reaction, my eyes widened at the sensation and a huge smile appeared on my face. Her face flushed a beautiful scarlet that she tried to hide but was to slow, fascination flooded my brain. Does she find us attractive? Why does she look so beautiful with a blush displayed on her face? Does she think were a good person? Looking back at her flushed face I could help what came out,

"The most beautiful."

She looked at me with a confused expression, the expression made me want her more than ever for whatever reason. Her eyes pulled away from mine when she heard people murmur compliments. She looked back at me and said the words that I never wanted to come,

"S-sorry again, umm, I have to head to class. I-it was nice to m-meet you." She gave me a small smile that showed straight, white teeth. I mean she was perfect. She walked off, her scent hitting me once again making me lose my train of thought. 

'Holy s**t,' Zeus said

'I know.'

'She's perfect.'

'I know.'

'She's our mate.'

'Yep.'

'I love her.'

'Me too.'

'We have to make her love us too.'

'Let's do it then.'

I turned to find the person I wanted to see the least. Lindsay.

"Hey lover!"

"Lindsay we talked about this, this morning," I grumbled annoyed

"Your right we did, you said not to call baby so I called lover!" She said happily

"Lindsay, you know what I meant. I don't want you to call me any kind of pet names because we are not a couple anymore." I said sternly

"But Xavy, just give us another chance! Please baby I still love you."

"You also really loved that college student Paul, so much that you had s*x with him," I said angrily

"That was a mistake, it will never happen again."

"Your right it won't happen again because we are not happening again, ok?" I stalked off to my homeroom that I was now late for thanks to Lindsay. I heard her friends come over and comfort her now crying self, I just continued walking to class thinking over all the ways to become close to her. She also had that unique aura, I intend to find out what made hers different from others. My classes went by slowly and uneventful, I was disappointed by each class I walked into not finding Ana sitting in one of the many desks. The bell to my 3rd-period class rang out causing me to almost jump in joy knowing that there was no way that I was not going to see my mate. I ran out of the classroom and to my locker at quickly as possible, before I was able to make it Blake stopped me.

"Hey what's up with you, I know you don't study for tests at all. I covered for you earlier but that doesn't mean you're off the hook for good, so what's up?"

"I found my mate." His jaw almost dropped to the floor before he began firing off questions.

"What's she like? What does she look like? What pack is she from? Is sh-"

"Her name is Annikah but goes by Ana, she has dark hair and bright blue eyes. She's so tiny and gorgeous but modest, shes also human but that doesn't matter to me. And there's something about her that I plan on figuring out but right now I need to go find her." He nodded his head in agreement

"Go but I have to meet her, she sounds interesting." I nodded my head in agreement and sped walked to my locker to put my things away. After I basically ran to the cafeteria but the scene that was displayed in the middle of the room stopped me dead in my tracks. Trent, with his arms around her waist, rubbing them on her sides. I looked at her face to find discomfort and fury, she brought her elbow forward and lifted her leg at the same time. She bashed her elbow into him along with smashing is toes with her foot, she turned towards him, 

"Don't ever touch me again, creep." She sneered in his face, he was so much more built and bigger than her but she seemed fearless. Big turn on. She began walking away, I basically read what was about to happen next so I ran towards them. Just before she took a blow to the face I stopped his moving fist while using my other arm to block her from any other harm that could possibly come to her, I would never let harm come to her, ever.
