The Alpha's mate

Who's Scott?

Megan (POV)

Hearing that my best friend was in the hospital was the scariest moment in my life. A million thoughts raced through my mind. All I wanted to do was get there and make her feel better. Jannelle was the best friend I could have ever asked for. She was always  so sweet and thoughtful. One year for Christmas everyone was going home to visit their families. I had nowhere to go. Jannelle stayed with me in the dorms all winter break. We made microwaveable smores, watched movies and she even had gifts neatly wrapped and placed under a tiny tree she bought at the craft store. Anytime I needed her she was there and I would be damned if I wasn’t going to be there for her now. When I showed up to the hospital I was so full of rage I started yelling at the nurses to take me to her. Not my finest few minutes but I wasn’t a fiery red head for nothing. Once I got into her room I  couldn’t help but to cry when I saw her.  But when she told me she couldn’t remember anything it just broke my heart. Then I got angry. How could no one tell me she had amnesia? Why did it take two days for them to call me? I was going to get to the bottom of this. Are you ok? Is there anything you need?  She was always so sweet. She didn’t know who I was or what to tell me. But what she told me next threw me for a loop. She told me to call Zack because apparently he knows her well and then she asked me to find out if he has feelings for her. I couldn’t help myself. I had to smile. Of course he has feelings for her! He’s head over heels in love with her! I know this because he told me. Everytime she would cry to him I would be the person that he leaned on. He has been in love with her since they were kids. When he realized she was his mate and then she fell for that douche Scott it almost completely broke him. For humans losing the love of your life hurts but for wolves it was toture. The deep connection we have to our mates is  like no other. It feels like we can’t breathe or sleep or even eat when we aren’t with them. I think because he’s the Alpha he was able to handle it better than the average wolf. But Jannelle? Why didn’t she feel it? She should have felt it right away. Unless she ignored it? I’ve heard of wolves denying their mates before but I never thought she would do something like that. Since she didn’t remember who she was I decided to see what her thoughts about Zach were now. This should be interesting.

Jannelle POV

Megan? It’s nice to meet you, I said. I have been told my name is Jannelle I said with a nervous laugh. Her eyes looked at me with sadness. I felt terrible for these people who knew me and seemed to care for me. I couldn’t reciprocate. I didn’t know them. I wanted to know them. Can you tell me anything about our friendship that maybe will trigger a memory? “ I can tell you, you are the most caring people I have ever met. I can also tell you about the time you flashed a bunch of pledges during pledge week at the frat house we went to for the halloween party. Man you were hammered!” She said with excitement. I immediately covered my mouth and turned a shade of red. I did that? Oh my. Why on earth would I do that? “Oh Jam you were  drunk! We all told you, you were drinking cranberry juice but in reality you were drinking vodka bay breeze. By the time we left the party you were hammered. You only flashed them because you thought you were home and you were getting ready for bed.” Jam? “Oh sorry, that’s my nickname for you because in college you would  never  eat jelly. Anytime we had pbj it had to be Jam.” Oh, well I guess that makes sense, I said. “So, you asked me about Zack. How do you feel about him?” I started to panic at Megan’s question. Umm.. well I guess I kinda feel strange. “Strange?”she asked. Yea, I just met him, well kinda and already I have feelings for him. Why? That’s insane! How could I possibly have feelings for someone I don’t even  know! “Jam, we are wolves, whenever we are near our mate we feel that connection. Did it feel like your every breath was synced to his? Did it feel like you could feel his emotions? When he’s near, is it easier to breathe? Like you are on a cloud.” Her questions couldn’t have been more accurate to how I felt. Yes! I blurted out. But what do you mean we are wolves? I laughed. This isn’t a movie Megan. The look on Megan’s face made me feel scared. “Jam, you are a wolf babe. You have been your whole life. You don’t hear your wolf in your head?” No I don’t but I had this dull headache since I woke up and if it makes any sense I feel like my brain is itchy. It’s strange, I said. “Your wolf is trying to communicate with you. You need to focus on her and let her heal you.” If I do that will I remember things? Will my life go back to normal? “It might. Would you like that?” she asked. I’m not sure. I was being completely honest. I really didn’t know. Right now things were kinda simple. Zack seemed more than just a friend to me but if I remember things like before will he only be a friend and will I never have a chance to explore my relationship with him? I was pulled out of my thoughts by a knock on my door. I looked over and a tall man with sandy blonde hair and tan skin stood in my doorway with a bouquet of flowers. “Hey Jannelle. I just wanted to see how you were feeling. “ the stranger said. Suddenly I heard Megan growl. The man heard it too, because his eyes narrowed in on Megan. “ I didn’t realize you had company Jannelle, I can come back later.” No it’s OK. You can come in. What’s your name? The man stood there shocked unsure of what to say or do. I’m Scott. You don’t remember me?” No I’m sorry I don’t. I was told I have amnesia. Could you tell me how I know you? He stumbled with his  words and I only heard a few umm uhhh well before Megan cut in. “This dipstick is your EX boyfriend” she made sure to emphasize the EX part.” Oh I said confused. Why are you here if I am your ex? “Well we had a disagreement the last time we spoke. You ended up passing out and hitting your head. I felt terrible. I just wanted to make sure you were ok. You are ok right?” I looked at him puzzled.  I was with you when I got hurt? We were having a disagreement? “Yes”. he replied. What was the disagreement about? He looked at me shocked that I would ask him the question. “Um, we were just deciding to go our separate ways and you had decided to move out. You hadn’t eaten so you passed out.” His explanation was effortless. “You are such a liar! Why did you come here? To make sure she wasn’t dead or to make sure she was?” Anger was laced in Megan’s questions. “I don’t want her to be hurt. I just wanted to make sure she was OK. I will be going now.” He turned and walked out, throwing the flowers in the nearest trash can.
