Fate

We got up from the table and she grabbed my arm, "Calm down, we'll find him and everything will be okay." But what I was about to find would be the start of something she had no clue about. She had no idea what my parents told me today, nobody but them and the Alpha knew as far as I know. I had to tell my mate, he needed to know what I might be before he accepts me. I needed to tell Lana tonight too, before I shift and find out for sure in front of others she needed to be prepared.
I stopped and turned to her "Lana, my parents told me something today, it could change my life and the entire packs. My Dad's great grandma was a gifted wolf who welded some sort of powers. Today my wolf revealed her self to me and her name is Esme, which is short for my ancestors name Esmeralda, tonight we find out if I am passed down a gift from the moon Goddess herself. My mate might reject me when he finds out, I have to tell him before I shift tonight. There's so much more at stake than just our mate bond." I think her eyes grew in size and she looked at me in shock. "Ayla no matter what happens tonight, I will be here, powers, gifts or not you're my best friend. Now let's go find this man and you can go from there." That's Lana for you, no matter what she always had my back and always would, I gave her a Stern nod and I followed my nose. It was time to see who this amazing smell was coming from.
As I followed his scent Esme started getting more worked up, bouncing in my head, "This is so exciting, I can't wait to meet mate", she purrs. "I hope he's as sexy and he smells, I wonder what his wolf will look like, or what his name is, mate is definitely close by I can sense him", Esme says. She's practically running in circles, which doesn't help the butterflies in my stomach. So much is riding on this moment. I hope I'm enough, I hope he accepts me for who I am or what I might be. "Girl have you looked in the mirror, you are drop dead sexy tonight, if mate can resist this red dress and tight little body he's insane", Esme assures me. I feel him close by and his scent all but smacks me in the face when I turn the corner of the courtyard and there he is, standing by the fountain like he was waiting for me to find him. Maybe he was, maybe he wanted me to come to him when he smelled me upon his arrival. Lana grabs my arm and turns me to face her, "Ayla, stay calm, don't freeze up and go talk to him, I'll be waiting right here if you need me."
The bond was so intense I felt like it was yanking me to him. I turned back around and before I could take a step forward he was practically in my face. I stumbled back but caught myself, I struggled myself up and he grabbed my hand, sparks shot through my hand and erupted in my entire body, the bond making itself clear. "Alec", I said, as he take my hand to his mouth, he takes his other arm and wraps it's around my waist and pulls me to him. He takes his head and nuzzles it into the crook of my neck before he whispers "Mate" into my ear. He pulls back and looks at me and I nod "mate", I reply. My entire body feels like it's on fire, not painfully but in the most sensual way it possibly could. I fight the urge to practically jump him and take a step out of his grasp. He looks at me and c***s his head, "What's wrong, are you disappointed", he asks with a look of utter confusion. I felt a snap in my heart as the bond was telling me to reassure him. "Alec, we need to talk, I have to tell you something before this goes any further, can we go inside and find somewhere private?" He immediately takes my hand and heads to the elevator in the pack house....this will determine everything...
