Tristan
I watched Hazel race off into the hall to try and find her friend I lost sight of her for a little while, I stood at the edge of the room trying to look cool and collected but when I noticed that guy take Hazel to the bar and put his hand on his back Cole flipped in my head shouting at me to go and tear him limb from limb but I couldn’t, I couldn’t frighten delicate Hazel she wasn’t a wolf she didn’t know our ways she was a fragile fairy not used to violence and the possessiveness of mates, I wanted her so badly I watched as they danced on the dance floor the sight of his hands all over her was driving me and Cole insane I had to leave I had to get some air I couldn’t believe this was happening to me I finally found my mate my other half my soul mate and she was a fairy, what would I do should I tell anyone I had to tell Damian he needed to know why I spoke to him the way that I did, I sighed heavily standing alone outside, I was just about to go back inside when I walked round the corner to the most beautiful sight, Hazel was stood under the shining stars looking up at them I stood mesmerised by the beauty of the scene before me I had to make this girl mine I couldn’t reject her she would be mine but in her own time. Hazel opened her eyes and stood looking confused and upset, she stopped when she saw me her eyes softened then she turned to look at Austin who had just walked outside, she closed her eyes again then walked past both of us back into the hall and out into the corridor I knew that she would be looking for her friend so I followed her if I knew Lucas he would of taken her somewhere quiet, I managed to finally catch up with Hazel as she looked round the entrance to the pack house “Hazel" I breathed and she looked up at me her eyes wide those blue eyes seemed to pierce straight into my soul she was looking flustered “Hazel the guy your friend was with is my friend I’m pretty sure I will be able to find them” not taking my eyes from hers she looked conflicted for a moment “ok show me, but no funny business” she said sternly I chuckled "I promise" I told her holding my hands up, I turned to walk into one of the back rooms which would be full of lovers of the night by now, first room there where a few couples but no sign of Hazels friend or Lucas I went through to another room and scanned it for them I saw them making out in the corner I stopped Hazel and pointed to them she looked shocked “Mel isn't like that at all!" she exclaimed “Lucas is renowned for his charm" I laughed the shock on her face was amusing boy I wanted to take her push her up against that wall and make out with her in the corner, she looked up at me and we had a moment chemistry filling the space between us her breath hitched then she shook herself and went over to her friend she pulled Lucas off Mel and scolded her friend “you could of told me where you were going!” she shouted at her friend Mel just looked sheepish and bit her lip Lucas came over to me “something that one” he said laughing “so how's the girl that you are with? She seems nice and is rather pretty” Lucas said raising his eyebrows at me “she's amazing” I sighed Lucas’s eyes shot wide open “you like her? This isn’t like you man” Lucas asked perplexed he was right I was never like this I sighed heavily "I think she's my mate” I whispered Lucas’s eyes grew wide but not in shock more like frightened it was strange but I didn’t pry "what are you going to do?" he asked quietly “I don't know” I was running my hand through my hair "the elders won't accept this” I grimaced “oh man do you not think so?" he asked seriously “they will" I said through gritted teeth “does she know” he asked watching me "no I think she feels some pull towards me but she doesn't have her wings and so doesn’t have her full powers that would let her know" Lucas just nodded beside me as we watched the friends Mel made her way back over to Lucas shy now she had been caught by her friend “can we go and dance” she asked him Lucas wasn’t usually one for dancing but knowing her friend was my mate he looked at me I was just watching Hazel adoringly "yeah lets go your friend should dance with Tristan" he smiled at her “yeah, Hazel dance with Tristan she shouted Hazel just glared after her friend obviously annoyed with her I held out my arm for her to take hoping beyond hope that she would, she then slid her slender bare arm through mine shooting tingles down to my stomach causing me to feel a nervous wreck and wanting nothing more than to run my hands all over her soft body, I had never in my life felt the way this girl was making me feel and I had only just met her tonight my mother wasn’t wrong about the mate bond. I lead Hazel to the dance floor where we danced together for a while she was starting to loosen up around me again I saw a carefree smile shine through as I was dancing trying to get her attention, her eyes kept wandering over the dance floor like she was looking for someone a rage of jealously shot through me as I hoped that she wasn't looking for the guy she was with earlier, oh Hazel you were doing things to me I didn’t even know I could feel all I wanted was her eyes on me to want me as much as I wanted her, “Tristan I would really like to sit down for a little bit” she asked softly I nodded eagerly wanting to please her and followed her outside, we sat on a bench in the garden of the pack house, we sat in awkward silence for several minutes I twisted my hands in nervousness god the way she was making me feel was so strange for me I wasn’t sure how much I could take of this usually when mates met each other they were all over each other straight away the bond making them fall for each other faster than a normal relationship, that’s why it was so hard I had all those feelings for Hazel I wanted to take her upstairs and rip her clothes off and mate with her all night long like most mates did the first night, but she wasn’t feeling it like me I had to hold myself back and it was killing me inside that she wasn’t falling all over me like I was for her but maybe this way would be better our relationship stronger because she hopefully one day will fall in love with me on her own I knew I already loved her and wanted to spend every moment of the rest of my life with her but I was happy to work for her to show her just how much that she meant to me.
