Chapter9

Kyahs POV

I woke up in what seemed like an emergency operating room. I looked around the room to get my bearings. Four people looked like nurses, the doctor, and the ice-blue-eyed man from earlier. My eyes locked on him and I felt drawn to him. I felt it in my bones that he was special and mine. wait where is this coming from? How can a man be mine I have barely talked to him. He walked to my bedside and touched my hand. I felt sparks rush through my body and pool in my chest. A golden light poured from the spot and flowed out in a beautiful ray like pure sunshine. "Mate." It came from my mouth without a second thought as to what it meant. The light dispersed and left everyone in the room speechless.

"My mate. It is great you recognize me now. I am Alpha Ryan Cole and I run this pack. I am grateful for your assistance with the intruders. You were amazing out there." He had a shine in his eyes like he was proud of me for killing people I used to work with. I hated myself for being able to do it. I feel confident when i have a weapon in my hand but when i am in an unfamiliar room with people i don't know I start to feel vulnerable. His hand still remained in mine and i felt a surge of reassurance through the contact. It was strange. I looked at our hands clasped together it was so unfamiliar yet comforting.

"What do you mean by mate, why am i here, and where are my clothes?" At the last part there was a growl and everyone left the room except for Alpha.

"You are my fated mate, like soul mates, but better, I promise. You are in the Moon Shadow Pack, because you are my mate as i am yours, its our pack to run." Whoa that alot to take in. I mean i just woke up and here i am with my mate. A mate that i will run a pack with. Wait a pack?

"A pack of what exactly?" My mind was reeling with information.

"Well.... That is a bit harder to explain than us being mates." He was hesitating and I couldn't understand why.

"What was that golden burst before?" I was curious.

"That is what happens when a witch finds her fated one. Though we have never heard of a witch being fated to one of us." He stated in a matter-of-fact tone.

"I am a witch is what you're saying?" I had to ask though i knew the truth. I was in fact a witch. It explains everything from my movements to my fast healing, and the ability to sense danger. It made it easy to figure out a friend from a foe.

"Yes and a particularly powerful one from how fast you just healed all of your injuries take a look at yourself." I did as he had said and the first thing i noticed was that i was, in fact, naked. Great all of my goods are on show for this God-like man. But i did notice that my leg was healed with a scar left in its place and the place where i was grazed by a bullet i don't know when that happened but its healed too with a faint scar left.

"Could i get some clothes please?" I did not feel comfortable naked in the presence of a man. I needed to get covered as soon as possible. His eyes clouded over and a few minutes of uncomfortable silence later a female nurse walked in with clothes in hand. She gave them to Alpha and made her way out. He handed me the clothes and i unfolded them to see what was brought. It was a dress and underwear with a pair of sandals.

"Really a dress? I haven't worn a dress in 10 years and now you're expecting me to wear one?"

"Beggers can't be choosers Wolfsong."

"Kyah. My name is Kyah, Alpha. Wolfsong was the name i went by in the Institute." I don't know why i told him but i felt like i could trust him now.

"You don't need to call me Alpha, you're my Luna, we are equals in all ways. You should call me Ryan. I like your name Kyah." He responded.

"So is Alpha a title or a position?" Thats the only way to make sense.

"Exactly. Alpha and Luna are the couple that runs the pack. I have a twin that was in the Beta position but he went AWOL 12 Years ago. I haven't seen or heard from him since. Then we have a Gamma his name is Josh, you'll see him around, he has taken on the Beta roll until we locate my brother and bring him home." He explained.

"What is your brothers name?" I was curious and i couldn't place why.

"Eric. Eric Cole." My heart stuttered and my hands went clammy. Why did it have to be him. He broke my heart when he left the institute, leaving me behind. Now he shows up again in my life just to destroy me all over again.

"I know your brother. I had him in my crosshairs that day i fell from the cliff. I couldn't shoot him and that is why I am hunted now. He used to be a part of the Institute up until 4 years ago. We were comrades." I don't know why i told him that. I felt compelled to do it. I left out the fact that i had been in love with his brother. I don't think he would handle that very well. His face contorted into a mixture of shock and something else i couldn't place.

"You weren't just comrades were you? I can sense something else is there. I watched you today. You killed well over 20 people without batting an eye and you're telling me you couldn't shoot my brother. You were comrades with those people and you killed them so why couldn't you shoot Eric?" He was angry his eyes darkened and his jaw set in a stubborn line. Well I guess i should just tell him and peel the duct tape of quickly.

"I used to be in love with him when we served together. We were drawn to eachother and worked together. We were partners in everything we did. He protected me and I protected him. But then he left me and broke me. I became a soldier that only followed orders until that day i had him in my cross hairs and i couldn't pull the trigger. "Ryans's face was unreadable.

"Do you still have feelings for him?"

"No. I don't love him anymore, but I do care for him." I had to answer honestly.

"Thank you for your honesty. I hope you can learn to love me the way you loved him and maybe even more." He was unbelievable. I cant believe he is taking this in stride.I wanted to save him but it seems he didnt need saving after all.

This is going to be a roller coaster ride. I am mated to my ex-lovers twin. I am a witch and I am going to be this mans Luna. I felt drained from the day and all i wanted to do was sleep. I looked up into his blue eyes and felt my body relax.

"By any chance is there a place i can sleep that isn't a hospital?" He just smiled and said. "How about i take you to our home?" Hot tamales. I am ready to go. "I am ready when you are."
