Nick's POV
___________________
My nose brought in the scent of the ocean breeze and vanilla, it the most beautiful thing I have ever smelt. My eyes shot open bringing in my surroundings. The bed is all white, as well as the walls and ceiling. The carpet is navy blue, and the dresser is white like every other furniture piece in the room, but that wasn't important. All that was important to me now was that smell.
I focused on the scent for a moment then it got fainter and fainter until it disappeared as if it dove deep into the ocean. After forcing myself out of bed I walked into the bathroom. I brushed my teeth and got into my swim trunks, I didn't wear a shirt.
I grabbed my cellphone and checked for any messages, I have no messages or signal. I sighed and walked out of the small one bedroom condo. Sand irritated the bottom of my feet but ignored it. It has been about an hour since that scent left my nose. It pleases my wolf just thinking about it. 'That will lead us to the best person that we will ever meet'
'Our mate?' I asked my wolf, James, I was very confused now. I felt him mentally nod his head and go into lovesick puppy mode. I was too consumed in my thoughts to notice the smell was was back. I started walking down the beach.
Then it hit me like a brick, the vanilla and ocean breeze smell intoxicated me. I kept walking straight following the scent looking about frantically to find her, the one that held the scent. Then I spotted a girl looking talking to the water. She quickly got up and started walking towards me. Not paying attention she slammed into me. Sparks flew through my body and my wolf instantly yelled 'MATE'.
At that instant I knew she was mine and only mine and that I would protect her forever. "Sorry" she squeaked pulling me out of my daydream. "It's fine" I chuckled holding out my hand for her to take. Slowly she reached up and grabbed it when she did she whispered "Mate" and fainted.
I quickly fell into protection mode when she fainted. I caught her before she could touch the ground. I didn't even get her name and i was protecting her. As people gathered around to see what happened I growled. "Mine" I threatened others to say otherwise. A girl pushed past everyone and yelled my mates name. "Storm! Storm! What the seaweed did you do to her?" She screamed. She had a golden tan jet black hair and brown eyes. I growled at the thought if anyone thinking I would ever hurt her.
"Why would I hurt my own mate?" I snapped holding her closer to me. "M-mate?" She stammered then squeaked in excitement "Storm has a mate! Forest, Storm found her mate!".
After the girl was done going on and on to her mate about Storm I finally asked. "Can you do me a favor?" I asked the girl that obviously knew my mate, Storm, very well. She nodded her head quickly with a smile. "Tell Storm's parents she is staying the night with you" I demanded. Nodding the girl took off to a small house, which I assumed was Storm's.
With everyone leaving the area I pulled my mate closer to me possessively. I looked down at her while walking to the small condo I had rented. I placed her on the couch and say next to her. I refused to leave her side. Her brown hair was ruffled. She had no bags under her eyes, to me she was the picture of perfection.
After watching six reruns of SpongeBob and two episodes of Attack on Titan her eyes opened slowly. She looked at me and opened her mouth but nothing came out. "It's ok" I comforted her "I am your mate". She nodded her face paled when I said this. "You don't want me" she argued "I want you and I am not going to let you ever think otherwise" I huffed. Storm nodded "Who are you?" . "I am Nick Dean Alpha of the White Shadow pack" I replied with pride.
Her face paled even more and this made me angrier. "Storm? What is wrong?" I begged. "Nothing"she lied, I knew I couldn't push her to tell the truth so I let it go.
"Come here" I whispered to her, hesitantly she came into my lap. "You can trust me with anything" I cooed into her ear. Her heart rate sped up and her breathing hitched. I chuckled at her reaction. "I-I have to go to the bathroom" she stammered and left the room.
