The alpha king

A chance

I woke up a few minutes ago on the same room i was put in the first time i came here.
I layed still, looking at the ceiling in front of me.
Trying to process everything.

He was a werewolf.
What do I do?!!
I thought they were just fairytale stories!!
Who would've thought I would be in this situation!

As everything sunk in, I felt the weight of my situation to be unbearable.
My fight or flight reflexes were out and my mind was screaming ' flight!!'.
He was too big, too strong.
I wouldn't be able to exert even quarter of his strength.
I fumbled off the bed and ran out the door, thankfully it was open.
I made my way downstairs not thinking about my footsteps or any kind of sound I was making, alerting my captors.
I was too panicked for that.
Tears flew down my face.
I ran to the front door and opened it, I heard some yelling from my left.

'ALPHA, THE LUNA IS RUNNING AWAY AGAIN!!' I heard the man yell.
I was out the door before he could say anything more.
Barefoot, I ran towards the woods.
I was slowing down, my fear was raising every second.
I knew I wouldn't be able to run for much longer.
My crying was also slowing me down.
The fact that he was a werewolf and would easily be able to catch up since I was slowing down made me cry more.

With my hands on my knees I stood panting and crying and sobbing.
Never have I felt more devastated.
My feet hurt from the twigs and stones that cut and bruised me.
I looked around, only trees and trees.
I never knew how to climb a tree, but I had no other option than to try that now. These trees didn't look easy to climb either, they didn't have a lot of branches at my height.
And I was already pretty short.
I put my hand on a thin branch, my foot on the trunk of the tree and I hoisted myself up with great difficulty, just as I was trying to climb higher I heard multiple footsteps.
My eyes widened and I scrambled to climb higher.
I wasn't being able to reach the other branch. My arm ached to get a hold of it.

Just as I almost caught it, I heard my name being yelled.

'AMORA!' came his voice from behind me.
I snapped my neck towards him, and just as I did, I slipped, I screamed and before I could touch the ground, Kane's strong arms caught me.
He held me bridal style for a second before he put me down on my feet, put his arms around my waist and hoisted me up from the grond, my legs dangled as he held me like I was about to disappear. But my tears didn't stop, I hiccuped and sniffled as my comparatively smaller palms held onto his shoulders. His face stayed in the crook of my neck, I felt his breath on my skin and I shivered.

His arms slowly lowered my body to the ground, the forest was quite, with only birds chirping softly, he lowered mine as well as his body further, our knees buckling.

My back against the tree trunk, my legs folded backwards on either side, his arms firm on the sides of my waist, his head still pressed in the crook of my neck, my crying had surprising stopped, only a few sniffles leaving my body, my eyelashes wet and my breathing calmer.

His kneeling figure in front of my body slowly lowered, he took his head out of my neck and with his gaze lowered, his eyes not meeting my face..
I noticed the tears in his eyes that were about to drop..
He softly put his head on my lap and wrapped his arms around my waist.

A few minutes passed by, I kept my eyes on his head on my lap.

'Why don't you love me back..?' He said as his voice cracked

He sounded so innocent.. Like a baby.
He sounded broken. Yearning for love.
My eyes softened.
He sniffled and let out a sob just as I put my palm on his head and stroked his hair.
He cuddled closer to me.

'Please don't leave me.. I can't live without you, you're my mate I love you more than anything.' He said his voice breaking again, it was very clear in his voice that he was crying.
I continued stroking his head.

'What's a mate..?' I asked

'Every werewolf has a soulmate.. And we call them mates. That's why you feel sparks when we touch.' He explained

How..
Why me..? I was a human.
Many thoughts such as these ran through my head as I went through slight shock.

But it was true.. I did feel sparks everytime we touch.

'W-what do you want me to do..?' I whispered

'Stay with me.. Please. I promise we can work this out. You're my everything..please.' He begged, breaking down and rubbing face on my stomach as I felt his tears against my skin.

I looked at him for a few minutes, contemplating on what to do.

'I'll give you a chance.. ' I said in a soft voice
