Un-Fated Mate

Chapter2

~Adriana

Three days have gone and I still lay in the woods. I haven't eaten for days and feel very weak, I can't hunt so I'm left with no choice but to die. I sat down and placed my back on a big oak tree that served as shade for me.

Click.

I heard something from my right.

Animal?

I kept hearing it but this time, the sound came from different places, is stood up ready to face whatever is out there.

A man came into view along side two big wolves.

I was scared to death but tried my best to keep calm and not be a coward, they were rogues and hunt other wolf, showing any sign of weakness can make them be on high alert.

“What is a pretty girl like you doing all alone here, in this thick forest all by yourself. Where's you pack little girl” he walked closer, making me step backwards.

“Oh no need to be scared of me. My friends and I are trying to help you” he said with a smirk.

“Don't come any closer or you'll regret it” I managed to say.

“You're a tough one. This looks like fresh meat” he said to one of his wolf friends.

My ares scanned them and the are strategizing possible escape.

“Be a good girl and come…” I didn't let him finish before I darted into the thick forest. I heard them howl before coming after me but I didn't care and ran as fast as my legs could carry.

The hot chase continued for about fifteen minutes, before my legs failed to carry me nevertheless I pushed myself. Suddenly the arua changed, the whole place smelled like an alpha’s pheromones. They had a really strong and dominating scent and it made me dizzy.

My pace slowed and vision blurred as I ran, up ahead I could see a male figure standing, I came closer to him and the scent blossomed that I couldn't take it anymore and passed out.

I wake up in room unfamiliar to me

Where am I - I thought. A lady walked in with stethoscope around her neck

She tried touching me but I refused

“Don't touch me” I clenched onto the sheets which smelled of those scents.

“I'm a doctor, okay, I'm trying to help you” she spoke softly

“I said don't touch me” I repeated firmly this time. She sighed, walked out of the room and walked back in with a man. He stood around 6 feet with layers of tattoos, he had a buzz cut and his eyes were bright emerald, I couldn't help but be in daze.

“She is awake but refuses to be examined,” the doctor said.

The Man walked closely to me. I felt the stench hitting me hard.

“I don't sense any threats from her,” he said.

“I think she's an omega, she looks so frail and weak. I also saw some bruises on her face with a few fractured bones” the doctor said.

“Who was chasing you? Which park are you from? Are you part of the spy…”

“Sir, you're scaring her” the doctor intervened.

“Grab her something to eat before we continue this session” he commanded before leaving then the doctor turned to me

“I'll go get you something uh… what's your name” she said sweetly.

“Adriana” I whispered

“Oh okay, Adriana, I'm going to get you something” she leaves and closes the door behind her.

Immediately she was out of sight, I scanned the whole place for another escape, I wasn't going to let this pack find who I was and take me back there. I'm not going.

The windows curtains were opened and the doors too

It's time to go

I got up still exhausted from the running but decided to do it anyway.

I opened the window to examine how high it was luckily it wasn't high that high

What's the worse that can happen

With that I jumped, landing feet first and breaking my ankles. One of the men on guard noticed this and yelled .

“Hey, where do you think you're going?” he said walking up to me. I tried getting up but my legs were reluctant. Few minutes later I saw the pack coming out, obviously someone had announced my escape.

The buzz cut man walked up to me and stared daggers at me. And I felt my wolf whimpering.

They carried me back in, this time two men we're on guard.

“Now tell us where you're from unless we end you here and now” the Man growled and flinched.

I stayed quiet. This pissed him off but a woman, with a striking resemblance, like a female version of him, calmed him down, he took a seat opposite me.

“I'm Janice and this is my older brother Riley. We don't want to hurt you, we just want to know where you're from. Feel free to speak” Janice said smiling.

“I don't want to go back there” I manage to say not looking at any of them but the sheets.

“Back where?” Janice asked, sitting beside me.

“My pack, my family, I don't want to go back. Please don't send me back” tears rolled my eyes

“Hey, hey it's okay, no one is sending you back” she whispered, hugging and stroking my hair.

“No marks yet, no mate” she said rather than a question.

I stayed quiet. She got up and walked to her brother, Riley whispered something to him and he directed his gaze to me but I averted my eyes.

“We’ll help you, on one condition” Riley said, boring his emerald eyes into mine.

I sat at the bed comfortably they had all gone to their various work leaving me in what I think is Riley's Room because his scent still lingers on.

I eat the food which they serve in haste because I hadn't eaten for days now and I'm really starting to the core.

“Okay here's what we want you to do if you're going to remain in this pack” Riley barge in with files in his hands

“We're going into a contract. I need a mate, my pack needs a Luna and I'm unable to provide due to some challenges which may not concern you…” he paused

“Wait.. you don't have a mate? Why?” I quizzed

“It's complicated, but read this” he tossed the files to the bed which I picked.
