Chapter Three
Roman's P.O.V
I was inside the Pack house attending to the arrangements for the Alpha ceremony with my Beta Lucas and my Gamma Mark. When I heard Screams coming from the front of the house.
I rushed out, Lucas and Mark right behind me.
That's when I see everything unfold. Two horses are charging towards women and children. s**t, I thought, "Everyone, get to a safe distance!" Lucas shouted. I let him take charge as I watched what was happening.
That's when I saw her; She was standing on the saddle of the ash-coloured horse. Her hair crimson, she was small I'd say at least 5ft 4''. She had the body of a goddess, curves in the right places. I was in awe of her.
My heart stopped when she jumped to the other horse's saddle, but that fear soon turned into relief to see that she made it safely. But at the same time, I was incredibly turned on by her. I watched her as she threw Louise from the horse and she landed flat on her ass. I watched her ride the crazed horse with such grace, her hair was whipping around like flames. I was speechless, it didn't take long for her to soothe the beast.
She dismounted him that movement alone had me rock hard.
Damn, she's beautiful.
She was helping Louise to her feet, goddess how I loathe that woman.
Every time she sees me, she tries to seduce me and have me make her my Luna. She is the vainest woman that I have ever met. Oh, and her voice, it's like nails on a chalk board.
I try to avoid her at all times.
I hear Lucas's voice pull me from my thoughts. When this mystery woman explains herself, I find myself livid, but I don't know why. Lucas told her he would look into the matter and she was to take the horses back to the stable. I can't see her face but that doesn't stop me from checking out her ass.
Lucas walks up to me and says "Well, it seems like Louise tried to steal your horse." I laugh she has no idea of the trouble that she's caused herself. I turn to Lucas and ask him
"Who is that girl with the crimson hair?"
"Her name is Nikki O'Connell, the packhorse trainer" he answers.
"Why have I never seen her before? I mean she's hard to forget with that colour hair."
"Oh, that's because she was not born into this pack. Hell, she's not even from Alaska." He tells me. She’s not born into this pack that explains why I haven't seen her before now.
"Then where is she from originally?" I ask.
"She's from Texas. She moved here with her father about two years ago." He said
"Pardon my asking alpha but why are you so interested in her all of a sudden?." he asked me confused.
"I don't know myself," I tell him.
With that, I head back inside to continue the arrangements for the alpha ceremony.
A few hours later, and I have finally finished with all my alpha duties for the day.
So, I decided to take a walk around the grounds. I was lost in thought, thinking about the ceremony and how I have yet found a mate.
Not having a mate is like missing a part of yourself. Most of the pack have found their mate at a young age but not me, I have yet to find her, and it's driving me crazy. My wolf Kane is howling in pain at the thought that we may never find her.
"Kane, we will find her," I tell him.
"You don't even believe that I can feel your doubt, we are the same. You can't lie to yourself or me." He shot back.
"I know your right. But we can't give up. We have to keep looking for her." I tell him but he does not respond. He just retreats back into my mind.
I'm left alone with my thoughts when I hear
"f**k that hurts."
That's when I notice I have walked straight to the Pack stables. I go inside to find the source of the voice.
That's when I saw her.
