Green Eyes

Chapter 5

I was back at the mansion sometime before 9:00 and walked in through the back door. It had started raining on my way back and I was soaked... plus covered in mud from taking a short cut through the woods. Trying my best to avoid other pack members, I made my way up to my room and closed the door behind me. I was still anxious from tonight's events so I decided it would probably be best to clear my head before talking to the alphas, but as soon as I turned around that thought went completely out the window. I found Rose, the Alpha female, standing by my window. I picked up a robe that was thrown across my bed and put it on, then sat down on my bed. She turned to look at me and didn't seem surprised by the mud.

"Chepi told you, didn't she?" I asked feeling as if I already knew the answer... I was wrong.

"Chepi? No. Vayne was actually the one who came to me. He said he noticed a wolf that looked a lot like you running from the Eastern Wood's territory."

"Wait so you knew about the pack?" I asked.

"Vayne let me know a few days after we moved in. We meant to talk to the alpha earlier, but apparently they were still in the process of finding a new one. So we planned on going over tomorrow just to check things out. What were you doing around there anyways?"

"Well about that... I may have sort of met my mate... and he happens to be in that pack."

"Oh, that's great! Who is he?"

"His name's Synyster. We met at school... earlier today actually."

"Sounds like an interesting day then. What does he look like?"

"He's stunning. He has dark black hair, strong facial features, and his smile is just amazing. But what caught my attention most were his green eyes. They were the same as mine."

"He sounds like a good match for you."

"Thank you," I said with a shy smile.

We stayed up talking for a while longer before Rose's mate made her come to bed. I observed the way they acted with each other and found it funny how even though she was an alpha female, she still whined as Ash pulled her out of the room. I liked talking to her. Not that we hadn't before but it was a bit different this time and I felt very comfortable.

After they left my room I grabbed my clothes for bed and thought about taking a quick shower, but something about going outside seemed more appealing to me. I glanced out the window real quick and then quietly made my way downstairs. I grinned to myself as I noticed everyone seemed to be asleep, or in their rooms at least. I knew the alphas didn't usually mind me being out late, but they were still sort of nervous since I mentioned what happened earlier at Synyster's. I was actually surprised by myself that I still wanted to, but I couldn't help the pull there seemed to be.

I stayed inside as I shifted so I could avoid getting my clothes soaked from the still pouring rain. I pushed the door open slightly so it wouldn't be as hard to get outside, and then shifted into my wolf form. Once I was outside I took off directly towards the woods and let my wolf take over. I felt as if I was in a strange trance, and wasn't sure where I'd end up but I trusted her. I ran for awhile until I heard a random sound come from behind me. I stopped and the pull seemed to stop as well. I looked around focusing completely on my surroundings in hopes to figure out where the hell I  was, but it still didn't click. Great.

I whipped around and growled as I felt something brush up against my fur. I turned to find amber eyes staring directly into mine, and froze as I realized who's they were. I didn't sense that he would hurt me, but after seeing him in such a feral state I still felt uneasy. I started to bark at him in hopes to throw him off and maybe get away, but to my surprise he just stared at me blankly and sat down. I cocked my head to the side as I looked at him, and observed that he was a pure white wolf- something I hadn't seen before. Just as I started to approach him he suddenly stood up and took off back into the woods.

I heard a howl come from the direction of the mansion and realized the stupidity of leaving my clothes inside... anyone could walk past. I ran back to the mansion as fast as I could and found the pack Beta, Daren, standing in the doorway. He raised an eyebrow at me as I trotted inside and closed the door behind me.

"Care to explain why you're out so late? Not to mention the fact it's also pouring rain," he said.

I shifted back in front of him, not minding my current state, and took the clothes from him.

"I'm not sure honestly. I felt like something was calling on me, and I don't know. Seemed like a good idea so I went."

After getting the 'good luck explaining that to the alphas stare', I just decided to roll my eyes and go back upstairs. Of course that wasn't the best idea since I received a growl in return, but I was getting frustrated. I locked my door behind me and  picked out some clean clothes since I still managed to get mud all over the other ones. By the time I took a quick shower and got ready for bed, it was already two in the morning. I passed out pretty quick though.
