The Alpha Queen

Chapter 5 - Mate

~ Davina's pov ~

I don't get it. What is even happening? Mate? I was hoping to find out who my mate was but I wasn't expecting it to be this soon. I looked around and tried to see who the could be here. I don't even understand how Meadow knows our mate is here.

"Because we can smell him." Meadow answered in my mind. I tried to take a sniff but I don't smell anything other than the forest. I'm so confused. It must be a mistake?

"No, focus and sort the smells, you will find a smell you absolutely love and it will smell better than anything you ever have smelled before." Meadow encouraged me. I tried again and did as she said. I filtered away the forest smells. I filtered away the animals and all the dirt. I filtered away everything and there it was, the most amazing smell I have ever smelled before. It smells kind of like a summer evening with a hint of fresh rain. I can't even describe how good it smells. I tried to find out where the smell was coming from, but the wind was messing it up. I felt Meadows disappointment but I guess she couldn't figure it out ether. I went back to mom and dad who had gone inside. I can't help but feeling a little sad over the fact that I didn't get to see who my mate was. Did my mate know I was there and decided that he doesn't want me? Or maybe he just didn't know I was there?

I got to my clothes and realized I don’t know how to shift back? I muttered to my self but it sounded more like a little grunt in my wolf form.

“Just think of yourself in human form and concentrate” Meadow guided me. What would I do without her? Probably not even being a wolf in the first place. I snicker at my own joke. I then closed my eyes and focused. I started to imagine my human body before me and I heard my bones snapping and I just knew it worked. Wonder if I can make my ass bigger by imagine my ass bigger? I could practically hear Meadow roll her eyes at my though.

“No you can’t, you will transform back to how you actually look moron.” She answered my silly though. I mean I wasn’t serious or anything… Meadow laughed at me I know she knows I was serious. I smile to myself and start to put my clothes back on. I went back inside to mom and dad who were snuggled up at the couch. I smiled at them.

“What took you so long?” Dad asked me. He was caressing moms arm as he talked. I don’t even think he notices what he does and the same with my mom leaning into dad.

“Meadow thought she could smell our mate, but we couldn’t see anyone.” I just said as I plopped down opposite them on the couch. Mom and dad looked at each other than at me. They both smiled at me. It felt like they didn't believe me.

“Don’t worry honey, you will meet you mate soon, I just know it.” Mom was the one to talk first. I just nodded. I hope she’s right. I still can’t stop thinking that maybe my mate don’t want me?

“Stop worrying your fabulous ass about it, you mom is right.” Meadow stated before retreating further back in my mind. I guess it took her a loot to shift for the first time. As I was thinking about it I was exhausted myself.

“Is it okay if I go to sleep? I’m out after shifting.” I asked mom and dad right before letting out the biggest yawn of my life. They laughed a little’

“Of course you can, we are surprised you haven’t fallen asleep yet to be honest.” Dad answered smiling. I could see the love in his eyes for me.

“We are so proud of you!” Mom filled in as well. I could actually see the pride shine in their eyes now that I thought about it. Happiness, love and pride. I feel so full of love and it makes my whole body warm. I got up said my good nights and hugged them both before going up to my room. I knew that I probably should take a shower before going to bed but I couldn’t find the energy to even care. As soon as my head hit the pillow I was out like a light.

I woke up quite late. I guess my first shift took all my energy. I smiled to my self. I didn’t even have the slightest idea that my life would turn out this way. I can feel Meadow sleeping in my mind and it makes my whole body warm just thinking about never being alone ever again. She’s my ride or die now. I heard a buzzing sound that broke me out from my thoughts. I looked at my phone and saw a new test message.

*Hey gurl! Hope your birthday was good, I didn’t wanna distract you. Xoxo* It was from Marissa. I decided to answer right away.

*Hello gorgeous! Yes it was better than anything I could of wished for! Wanna meet up for coffee?* I sent the text and got up. I might as well get ready for the day as I wait for her response. I took a long warm shower, fixed my hair by just blow dry it and then I was satisfied. I didn’t have the energy to actually do anything else. I was just meeting up with Marissa, if she actually said yes. I picked up my phone to check if she answered yet. I saw her replay on the screen.

*Well ofc?! Do I ever say no to girl time???* I smiled because it was true, she never says no. I quickly sent her to meet me at our coffee place we always go to in 30min and put the phone down again. I need to find what to wear. I got to my closet and put on tights and pulled a knitted dress with a high neck that ended a little over my knees over. I choose a belt with golden details and a pair of black boots with golden details to match the belt. I also put on my leather jacket to finish off the look. I watched myself in the mirror and I was satisfied. Meadow had just woken up in my mind and she whistled at my reflection in the mirror.

“Wow what a babe!” She purred and wiggled with her tail. I couldn’t help but burst out laughing at her. I mean I looked good but it was casual and nothing extra today. I appreciate her giving me ego boost tho. I know that I didn’t need to answer her because she could feel my thankfulness for her. She was acting like a happy pup in my mind. I shook my head and picked up my phone and keys as well as my wallet and went down. I told mom and dad where I was going and I rushed out not to be late.

I got out of my car that was parked outside of the coffee shop. Our favorite place to meet and talk, The Doof. Weird name I know and I don’t know why it’s called like that but they make the best coffee and sweets.

I walked in and saw that Marissa already got our usual seats and had ordered our coffee as well. I always take the same, a caramel latte, so she knows what I want. I walked over to her and got in my seat. She smiled as she saw me.

“I’m so sorry I didn’t tell you!” Was the first thing she said. I smiled as I saw how anxious she looked. She really didn’t look like keeping all those secrets from me was something she wanted to do.

“It’s totally okay, I understand. And to be honest I don’t think I would of believed you if you told me anything.” I reassured her still smiling. I grabbed my latte and took a sip. So good! But I actually feel like if she would be the one to tell me about the whole werewolf thing I wouldn’t have thought of it as real in the same way I did when mom told me. As I sat there thinking I felt that feeling again, like I'm being watched. I looked around a little but didn't see anything out of the normal. I was after all in a public place so I just ignored the feeling and looked back up at Marissa.

She looked at me and smiled. You could actually see her relax at my words. It made me happy. She also sipped her coffee. She always takes a normal coffee but she always wants a little whipped cream in it for some weird reason.

“We have a lot to talk about tho, like A LOT.” She said when she put the cup down from her lips. I nodded. She was so right about that. We sat and talked about everything and anything after that but we left the werewolf talk for later. We were surrounded by humans so we couldn’t talk openly about it.

It was about 30 minutes later and Marissa was just about to tell me about a club opening that’s happening tonight when she went rigid.

“We need to go now.” She stood up and grabbed my arm and took me with her. I was so confused.

“Why, what’s happening?” I felt Meadow stir in my mind and I just know something is not right. She felt threatened.

“There’s someone here after you and we need to go NOW.” I froze. What? Why would someone be after me? Then I realized what I learned yesterday. I’m not a normal person anymore, I’m going to be Queen Alpha. I rolled my eyes at my slow reaction to why this was all happening. But I still didn’t understand one thing. Maybe it had something to do with my feeling of being watched?

“How do you know?” I voiced my question. Marissa looked back at me as she was again dragging me to my car. She rolled her eyes at my question, I bet she’s irritated over that I want to know everything and have my answers.

“Your parents told me they just found a note outside your house that said that they are coming for you.” She answered so fast I nearly didn’t hear her. But I did and I didn’t like it. But again the confusion returned.

“How did they tell you tho? You didn’t look at your phone?” I still wanted my answers. She opened the car door for me and I got in at the passenger side not saying anything about it. She went around the car to the drivers side and got in. She turned on the car and we were off like a lightning bolt.

“They mindlinked me, and before you answer, yes they can do that to me now because since you got your wolf it’s like we have our own little pack so you can mindlink us as well.” She knew me well. I would actually ask that if she hadn’t explained it. I just nodded. I still don't really get how mindlinking works but nows not the time to worry about it. The feeling in my stomach wasn’t good and Meadow was still agitated and roaming around in my mind. We were just driving around and right now we were at the outskirts of town with a big forest around us. We were quite a long way from home as I lived on the opposite side of where we were going. We had been driving for a while and just as we started to calm down a little a really big black wolf jumped out in front of the car.

- NOTE -

I’m so sorry that it took so long for this chapter! My life is a mess but it’s getting better now hopefully. I really look forward to continue this story! I have a lot planned for it so I’m excited. I will start doing the chapters a bit shorter, it will be easier to make them faster that way and if it sometime in the future actually ends up on pay-to-read the chapters won’t be to many coins. Hope you like it and please tell me what you think? Xoxo
