Her Mystic Scent

Chapter 1

I stood in an alley outside a store and waited, a moment later a man stepped out and crossed the road. I spit the gum in my mouth in a nearby trash can before checking the time on my watch.

I began to walk slowly while I observed the man dressed in the grey hoodie ahead of me walking towards a car park across the street. The car park was located in the basement of the mall.

I rolled down my sleeve over the watch covering my arms once more and adjusted my black cap to disguise myself properly. The parking area he was heading to seemed dark and desolated which would work great for me.

The man must have sensed me behind him as he suddenly quickened his pace.

‘Hmm Fun’ I thought as I enjoyed the scent of fear that was now coming off him.

Suddenly, he stopped walking and turned back to me. "Excuse me sir? Do I know you or anything? I realized you have been following me for a while now." He spoke with a fear laced voice.

I couldn’t help the smirk that made its way on my face and with a devilish gaze in my eyes, I took off my cap.

The man was visibly terror-stricken the moment he saw my eyes.

"You...You..." He was murmuring anxiously but couldn't complete his words as he was too scared.

"Yes, I am the one you were sent to keep an eye on. 2 days.. And you thought I wouldn't notice? Are you an i***t or something?" I slowly started walking towards him with a satanic look in my eyes. He gulped nervously and started stepping back.

"S-Sir, I-I am sorry. I didn't mean to do it, I was paid to collect information about you and your company. I didn't want to do it, but I was helpless." He started begging for mercy in a shaky voice.

“Ha” I felt pity for his ignorance, he is asking for mercy from the wrong person.

"It's of no use. Besides, I also know who you are working for. The Blood moon sent you, didn’t they? And you don't even have the slightest idea how much I hate them! Well since you were going to follow their orders with such ignorance you should now, prepare to embrace your deserving gift!" I groaned at him fiercely.

He seemed terrified of my threat and started to look all around him, but the parking lot was completely empty.

"Please...Please spare me, sir. I have a family. Please!" He started weeping helplessly while asking for forgiveness but I didn't stop.

"You ignorant human," I grumbled in a dark voice as my eyes began to change color.

He shivered and immediately shrieked loudly, "help me! Someone, please save me from this monster!"

‘Monster? Oh you have seen nothing yet’

In a split second, my razor-sharp claws were out. "Goodbye," I mumbled as I slit his throat.

Blood drops splattered all over my black shirt as I eradicated his existence. It was just a matter of seconds to kill a fickle human like him for me.

"I will destroy the entire existence of that Blood moon Pack," I grumbled fiercely while clenching my fist as my eyes changed back to their color.

Before anyone could notice it, slowly I put the cap back on my head and walked out of the area with a proud grin on my face, leaving the man lying in a pool of blood.

...

Let me introduce myself first. I am Nathan Young, the true-alpha of the Crescent Pack. As a dominant leader, it's my duty to look after the safety of my pack. I have assassinated countless foes who dared to harm me or my pack.

Also, we live among humans, under a disguise of course. For them, I am the 30 year old smart, billionaire CEO of the Young Business Empire. In reality I am just 150 years old and with all that time on my hands it would be a shame to not make something out of myself.

I have been leading my pack dominantly for nearly about 100 years. Sometimes, living among humans and their surroundings pisses me off terribly. But I have to stay calm and alarmed around them so that our supernatural powers don't get discovered by them.

I am extremely brutal and cold-hearted. Along with leading my pack, I have another reason for my life- the extinction of our rival werewolf pack, the blood moon pack. Who snatched my grandmother from me, the only person who cared and loved me in my lonely life.

I wasn't born strong. I never wanted to be the leader of my pack but my entire meaning of life changed drastically when she was murdered before my eyes and I couldn't do a single thing except cry and beg for their mercy!

They didn't harm me with a single scratch but left me all alone with my dead grandma covered in blood. The painful sight made me realize that I didn't have any other option left except becoming the leader of my pack. The strongest leader I could be to get my revenge.

My mother and father both are alphas of my pack. But sadly, I never received any love from them. When my grandma died, I realized my painful loneliness vividly. For them, I have always been just an alpha, not their child.

I have a half-brother named Lucas, who also happens to be a beta and looks after our business as my partner. Though he pretends to be loyal to me, I am well aware of his dark intentions towards me...

My hidden scars never allowed me to search for someone to mend my broken heart. I have encountered countless women (both human and werewolves) but none of them could surpass the barriers of my heart.

I don't know what has been planned by my destiny!

As I was walking past the footpath at a slow pace with the hands inside my pocket, a figure passed beside me.

Immediately I stopped. She had an extremely sweet fragrance on her body which I have never encountered before. She smelled neither werewolf nor human. It was a scent that throbbed my frozen heart!

As she piqued my curiosity, I turned back to look at her. She looked divine from behind as she was walking nonchalantly.

‘Who is she?’ I wondered
