Chapter 3

  • Clara
  • Emily still can't get over the fact that I just met my mate. The look that she is giving me right now is showing me that she is still in shock.
  • "And you let him go just like that?" she asks me with utter disbelief in her voice.
  • "Come on. I just met him," I reply, buy in reality, I wish I had followed him to wherever he was going.
  • "Why is that an excuse? He is your mate so it doesn't matter if you met right now or years ago," she says.
  • "If he really is my mate, then we will have to meet again, eventually," I tell her with a hopeful smile. I hope the moment comes soon.
  • I can still feel his cold but smooth hand caressing my cheek. I want to feel that again. I haven't told Emily that he is a vampire, or else she will freak out. We all know how father hates vampires.
  • Vampires and werewolves have never been at good terms. The werewolves haunted the vampires and vice versa. Since they are all immortal, the conflicts went on forever.
  • I know very well how much father has always wished that I could get a fancy Alpha mate from a great pack. Not that he cares so much about my well-being. He just wants to expand his connections and get more Allies.
  • Father cares so much about my elder brother, Jason because he is his successor. He gives him all his time and attention to groom him into a strong man. He wants him to be a powerful Alpha someday.
  • I am not jealous of his identity as the next Alpha of the Halfmoon pack. I don't give a damn about politics anyway. Even the little attention that my father gives me is stressful enough. He wants me to be a smart Lady and get an Alpha mate, which I don't want. I don't want to run from a political house and join another.
  • All I ever wanted was a mate who cared about me and would give me unconditional love. Whether Rogue, human or werewolf, I don't mind. Now my choice has come out of the box. He is a vampire. I know dad will fume when he finds out.
  • "Have you been paying attention to what I have been saying?" Emily snaps me out of my reverie. I had already forgotten about her.
  • "What?" I ask out of confusion. Damn, this mate bond has got me day dreaming. Well, it is already night time. Emily just shakes her head in disbelief.
  • "I was saying that when are you going to introduce him to the pack? At least to me. I am your best friend, right? You are the first person I introduced to Matt," she says.
  • "Come on. I also just met him. We didn't get to talk much. God! I didn't even ask him his name," I say.
  • "Oh, I hope I wasn't the cause," she says while scratching the back of her neck. Ofcourse you were! I shout in my head but I don't say it. I just give her a small smile and we walk away.
  • My father is planning the engagement party for my brother, Jason with his mate Riley. The whole pack is busy in the preparations. I heard that he has invited many Alpha's and their Betas, especially the unmated ones hoping that I will be able to find my mate. I am still debating on whether to tell him that I have already found my mate or to just keep quiet.
  • The moment my father finds out that I have found him, he will do anything to find him. He will be eager to find out where he lives, his status, if he is from a powerful pack or not. I don't know if he will be disappointed or angry when he finds out that he is a vampire.
  • My head has been buzzing with thoughts since I met the sexy vampire in the Alley near the mall. My wolf is extremely restless. She wants to be with her mate, but I still have to put myself together. I don't even know where he lives.
  • What if it was all a mistake? I mean it was very brief, almost as if it never happened. The ghostly remainders if his touch still linger on my skin and his sweet scent is still around me. Gosh! I feel like a drunkard.
  • I get out of my room after trying to get him off my mind but in vain. I know a quick run in the woods will do me some relief. My wolf will be finally free from being locked inside with all those emotions.
  • I walk down the long wound staircase in the main pack house. The house is pretty huge because many wolves live in here. The pack house is where the Alpha and Luna live with their family. Also visitors from other packs stay at there during their time of staying. Most pack celebrations are held inside. Actually, that is where my brother's engagement is going to be held here.
  • It is late in the night: past midnight, but I haven't been able to get a tiny bit of sleep. I feel very alive. I walk into the woods and remove all my clothes. The moon is shinning brightly in the sky so the woods aren't that dark. I am transform into my wolf which surfaces with a howl.
  • My wolf is a big silver grey wolf with a pure white tail and face. That is how my mother's wolf looked like. She was killed in a pack war five years ago, but all the memories we created together are still fresh in my mind.
  • I run through the woods, down towards the stream in hopes of getting my mind cleared. The air is very refreshing as it runs through my fur giving me the comfort I am looking for.
  • The sweet scent from a few hours ago fills my nostrils again making them flare. Mmm, my wolf purrs at the smell of her mate. She follows the scent without thinking twice. Her senses are very heightened at this moment with no disturbances. Nothing is going to come between her and finding her mate.
  • Is he hear, in the woods? What would he be doing here? Did he come after me so as to find out where I live? I swoon mentally at the romantic gesture.
  • The scent leads me deeper into the woods towards the territory of the Silverclaw pack. It is not allowed for pack members to roam on another Pack's territory without permission. It would be intruding and it is highly punishable.
  • I stop by the stream boundary and rethink about crossing it and following the scent. my father would be very furious if I got myself into trouble and caused the pack problems.
  • The scent gets very strong and irresistible. Where are you? I look around the stream. The water is not that deep I can walk through it and cross the stream. Just as I am about to dip in my front leg in the water,
  • "I wouldn't do that if I were you," a familiar voice sounds from behind me. I immediately turn and find the heart's most wanted standing there, leaning against a tree. I rejoice within, and wonder if he can recognize me. I am in my wolf form. He doesn't even know how my wolf looks like, does he.
  • He tilts his head to one side and looks at me with a nonchalant look. I start debating in my mind if I should transform in front of him and show him that it's me. Damn! I left my clothes behind.
  • So what if he sees you naked. He is your mate anyway, my wolf tells me but I ignore her.
  • I don't know if he noticed my state, because he removes his long coat and gives it to me.
  • "You can put this on," he says with a secret smile playing on his face.
  • I stand behind a tree and transform quickly. I pull on the coat. Luckily, it corners everything up to my knees though there is a good amount of cleaverage showing.
  • After making sure I am good to show, I dash into his embrace and wrap my hands tightly around his neck. He doesn't stop me, though I caught him off guard. He also wraps his hands around my waist and pulls me closer into him.
