CHAPTER 2 : Scent and Sessions

Laura

I woke up snuggling more into the covers, inhaling the overwhelming scent that was invading my nostrils. Goddess! I so wanted to roll in the essence of it and never wash it off me. 

My wolf kept nudging me throughout the night to let her out and go in search of her mate. I wanted to smack her head because she wasn't understanding the fact that he could be a potential. And if our mate had felt us here, distinguished our scent then why didn't he come see us. This was not my pack and I couldn't just go cause ruckus in a pack whose Alpha was feared.

No, of course I was not scared of the Alpha. But I knew better to work in peace. I had come here for a reason and I was going to leave after I had done my job perfectly rather than be the cause of chaos. I did not want anyone unnecessarily killed because of me. 

Blood shed was definitely on my list here. 

But for the hunters and their goons. Damn yes! 

My wolf whined and stomped her feet but I paid her no mind. She was an Alpha and she knew better to act like one. I got ready wearing a formal shirt and skirt. It was nine-thirty and I had to meet the Alpha first, check the letter the council had sent, take his signature and carry on with my work.

Rick was still sleeping when I left the cabin, taking along with me my files, laptop and the two books I needed to make notes. Entering the pack house, I saw Villa with a small ten or eleven year old girl. She was feeding the little girl her breakfast as her attention snapped to me. The scent invaded my senses again making it difficult for me to take further steps. 

Goddess, Help me!! 

I kept my head high with a smile as I went in towards them. The girl no doubt was Villa's daughter. She smelled of her. "Good morning." I greeted them.

"Good morning." Villa and her little smiley daughter greeted. I could feel the small girl's heart race as she looked at me. 

Villa nudged her with a smile as I took a seat beside them. "Hi. I'm Lyla Vicky Mathew and I am eleven years old. I want to grow up to be a doctor like you!" She finished and looked back at her mother for assurance about her little speech. 

My smile grew tenfold listening to her. I was here to find candidates that would not only help me on the outside as a tertiary defense team but I also needed people who had an interest in medicine as well, who understood not just werewolf medicine but also were willing to learn things that concerned other shifters. 

We were not just trying to save our kind. We wanted the hunters dead once and for all. We wanted to do this for every single one of them who were under the radar of the hunters and also the ones who were trying to gain power over the others. 

Layla still had some growing up to do. But goddess, I was already taking a liking towards her.

I smiled at the little girl as her mother nodded at her and said, "That's amazing. Well we just want more like you. And don't worry I'll keep my eye on you to make sure you grow up to become who you want to be." 

She smiled brightly with her big cheeks showing, "Thankyou!" She said, causing her mother to chuckle. 

"I'll get you your breakfast." Villa said and I nodded at her. 

"Dr. Laura." Lyla called-out. I looked at her, resting my chin on my hands and nodded for her to carry on. "Will it be okay if I join the sessions with you?" She asked. 

"Yeah. sure." I told her and she did a quick hurray for herself. 

"I won't disappoint you. I've read the book stating ayurveda of Indian origin and I know most of the names." She told me, making me look back at her in utter shock.
