Waiting Forever

Chapter 15

Logan's (POV)

I didn't notice when she had shifted, I was too wrapped up in my pain to see her taking off. Sam had gone to check with the pack doctor about the details to my sisters death. So he didn't notice either.

When I finally convinced my parents to go home is when I realized she wasn't with me anymore. I started frantically calling her name but no answer, where the fuck was she?

I shifted shape and followed her sweet scent until I was at a stream, I jumped it but her scent had stopped there. Dammit she must have tried following the rogues.

I growled and tried connecting with her but she was blocking me. I called Sam through the mind link and our pack fighters, we ran around the whole area trying to find her scent again, for two hours I ran my mind and wolf flipping out.

When I felt her pain, I doubled over, what the hell? She was fighting, I tried calling her but the block was still in place. Up ahead I heard Jackson howling, he had found her scent.

We followed it across town and into the forest that led to the mountains. I kept calling out to her, when finally she responded to me, 'I got them for you, I love you, be strong for me.'

Then I felt nothing, I screamed at her to answer me but I felt her life slipping away. I whispered 'Baby, I'm coming' hoping she would hear me.

I pushed my wolf to its limit, he wanted his mate and knew she was in trouble. I covered the ground quickly, a little ways ahead I saw flames dancing in the night sky knowing my mate was there I pushed myself harder.

Sam and my fighters were so far behind me that I couldn't hear them anymore. I pushed past the forest line and saw a house burning to the ground and rogues lying dead all over the ground.

When I saw her I was shocked, she was suspended in the air with this white light enveloping her, it spun around her body before gently laying her on the ground. I tried moving but I was stuck, I wanted to go to her but my feet refused to move and that's when I realized my wolf had gone completely silent.

For hours he had been pacing and growling forcing me to find her and now he wasn't making a sound.

The light that had placed her on the ground slowly let her go and formed into a woman. She was about 5'6 with brown hair that fell to her shoulders. She was slim in figure with jeans and a black t-shirt.

At this sight I should have been scared for Mia and wanting to rip the unknown woman's head off but I strangely felt at peace. I knew she wouldn't hurt my mate and surprisingly my wolf agreed.

I watched as the woman bent down and murmured words in Mia's ear. I tested to see if I could move and I could, bounding over to them I shifted shape and tugged on the basketball shorts I had tied around my leg.

The woman looked up at me and raised an eye brow as her gaze trailed down my neck, shoulders and arm. I glanced down at her finally able to see her in detail. Her arm was covered in the same sort of designs that Mia and I had from our mating mark.

Damn she was a grey too, she had chocolate brown eyes the same as Mia's. I put two and two together and shook with displeasure.

'I thought you were dead.' I growled at her, making her jump up and face me head on. She snarled at me but I refused to back down. After a five minute stare down she finally realized I wasn't letting this go, she ran her hands through her hair in frustration.

'I'm not her mother, look closer.' She said on a sigh. I did and realized that she was too young to have had a child Mia's age.

'So who the fuck are you then?' I demanded.

'Her sister,' she trailed her hands down her arm and looked me in the eye. 'I got this when she first shifted because it let me know that she was in danger.'

'How the fuck is that possible?'

'After our kind was nearly wiped out, we came across a witch more like a sorceress, she said in order for us to survive we had to be separated. Several families ran and ended up being butchered by those who first attacked us.'

'But others who chose to listen to the sorceress, like us, were told that we had to hide our gifts in order to live, that when we really needed them our wolves would come out and protect us. My family bargained with her to help us, she said that if someone in our family changes that markings will show up and lead us to them.'

'We had to be separated, I was taken to an orphanage and so was Isobel' she motioned towards Mia with her hand. 'When I got older I had this strong pull towards an older woman who had moved to my town.'

'I finally asked her about it and she told me about what she did, she was the sorceress. Our parents, live in the next state over, I found them after I questioned the older woman. They told me about Isobel and I knew I had to find her, I went out in my car and tried searching for her.'

'For two years I have looked, two fucking years not knowing where she was it if she was alright, I had a shitty childhood and I wanted to make sure at least one of us got a good one. But I saw the marks on her back and knew she ended up just like me.' She had tears in her eyes as she knelt down and ran her hand along side of Mia's face.

'A few days ago I got this mark and followed it, and I ended up here just as she collapsed on the ground. I used a skill I have picked up to heal her but its up to her to wake up.' She looked up at me and I saw the question in get eyes.

'You may stay but it doesn't mean I trust you,' I said scowling at her.

'That's fine I just want to be part of her life, because of those bastards we were robbed of ever knowing each other and I just want that chance.' She had turned to look at Mia again running her hand through her hair, brushing it from her face.

'Her name is Mia by the way, she won't recognize Isobel, also I'm warning you she isn't all soft and buttery, she just may come up swinging.'

'Life made us both hard, I haven't gotten my wolf yet but I think I'll have her very soon

'How do you know that?' I asked.

I watched as she turned her head in time to see Sam and my warriors running from the forest. Her eyes began to glow as Sam shifted to his human form. Their eyes connected and I knew she was his mate.

He stopped half way to her and watched as she got up to meet him. She walked up to him and slammed her hands on his chest making him sprawl backwards on the ground.

She jumped onto his chest straddling him as his hands went to her hips. He stared at her in shock, as she grinned down at him and growled 'mine'. He shook off his shock and grabbed the back of her neck and pulled her down into a kiss.

Oh, bleh I did not need to see that. I turned and picked Mia up off the ground. She was breathing steadily and the blood that was coating her was dried and I made sure there was no wounds before I started to walk home.
