Eirian

My head was going to split. God!! Why is everyone trying out to get me.

I was tied to a chair. Typical. I saw Lucas glaring at me.

"What do you want from me?" I said. Trying to hide panic from my voice.

"Nothing. I have nothing against you."
"Then let me go and I promise I wont tell anyone. " I pleaded.

"Eirian, Eirian, Eirian. I'm sorry. But I can't do that. I have debts that I have to pay and you are my ticket to wiping that slate clean." Lucas' said licking his lips.

Creepy dude says what? "I don't have anything to give you. I'm broke!"

Tears began swelling at the side of my eyes. I'm crumbling. Oh god. Way to show them Eirian.

"It's not you, Eirian. It's what's connected to you. My boss needs Saphron dead so he can take over his pack."

"There's nothing going on with me and Saphron!" Pain started to form in my chest. He would answer to me if Saphron gets hurt.

"No, Eirian. You're his mate. We get you dead. He dies of a broken heart."

How would he know?

"I've heard that he's grown quite fond of you," he said as he removes a familiar looking necklace from his pocket.

And then someone bursts through the door. It broke into two equal parts as it fell to the floor.

Saphron

I will kill them all!! My wolf was now in control. I heard my bones click as I shifted into my wolf form.

I felt my paws touch the floor as I have fully changed. They have hurt our mate and now they shall pay!

They attacked me but I was quick on my feet. I darted through the room and gave a terrifying howl.

It made them stiffen as I tower over them. My wolf form was bigger than other werewolves for I was an alpha.

I striked at each of them ruthlessly, leaving them limping towards the exit. I wanted them dead but it could traumatize my Eirian seeing the cold blooded part of me.

I saw Lucas running for his life."This ain't over you mangy mutt!" He shouted at me holding up Eirian's necklace.

How did he get that necklace?

I went towards Eirian and changed back to my human form. I untangled her from her confinement and held her.

"It's you." She said.

Eirian

Realization hit me. It was him. He was the golden wolf I saw in my dreams.

"Yes. It's me, my love." He said holding me.

It was akward being held by a naked guy in an empty store but being in his arms made everything better. Calmness washed over me as I savor the moment being wrapped around him.

"So were mates, huh? " I asked into his eyes. He smiled.

"You should get dressed." I said as my eyes are trying not to stray downwards.

"Like what you see?" He said proudly.

"You perv!" I tapped his chest playfully. He then got dressed and we left the store.

"So, what are these mates? I haven't quite grasped the idea. ", I asked as we walked towards the manor.

"Were wolves were born with only half a soul. Fate then decides who your other half is. And when they do find their mate, it's like they become whole again. What they feel, what they think, what they are, are one, more like soulmates." He said dreamily.

"Every werewolf dreams to finding their mate, some even wait for centuries til they find them.. But when they do, it's like all the happiness in the world is solely contained in your other half, you would never want to be afar each other." He sighed.

"I never pictured you as a romantic one, Alpha Saphron." I teased him.

"Don't tell anyone." He laughed. "It's a bit over romanticized but I do get it. It's nice to hold on to the thought that you can find someone you will love and protect same as they would love and protect you too."

"Then what about if a mate dies? " I asked skeptically.

"They either go rouge, go insane, or die from Shokubutsu syndrome. Nothing is as painful as having your mate die. "

"Shokubutsu syndrome?" I asked.

"Broken heart syndrome. Too much grief could cause one to take his own life."

Woah. This is a lot to take in in one night.

"You know, Lucas wanted me dead."

He froze and looked at me. "I would never let anyone, or anything hurt you, Eirian." He said getting closer and then he claimed my lips.

Mine. I heard my wolf say. Then I responded to his kiss.

Yeah. Cue romantic music.
