A Beasts Love

Chapter 7

Tingles ran up my spine as his words rumbled through my body. He hadn't moved from his spot and he pale blue eyes hadn't left mine. I'd be lying if I said I didn't feel a pull towards him but mates? Even when the whole concept of a mate was explained to me before I couldn't quite grasp it. I mean I was pretty much told you have more then one mate, more then one person that completes you so that if one mate dies another can pretty much take there place.

" y-your o-one of my m-mates?" I stammered taking a small steps back, which was a mistake. He took a step towards me and his pale blue eyes darkened to a deep blue that glowed like neon lights.

" I am your only mate. You are mine." He growled deeply. My breath caught in my throat as his voice made my knees go weak and my tummy flutter. I was ashamed at my reaction to this complete stranger mate or not.

" but what about my other mates?" I raised a eye brow as a shock looked crossed his face followed by realisation

" you mean substitute mates?" He asked me softly and I just shrugged, how the hell was I meant to know!

" you only have one true mate. Me.....If anything was to happen to me... You would have someone else." He gritted his teeth at the last part. His eyes started to change from a glowing blue to a dark navy, I gasped at how fast his eyes had changed from practically white to a dark blue.

"I will never leave you un protected even if it means you are protected by someone else." He growled. Now don't get me wrong I'm no werewolf expert but from the way his body was shaking and his eyes glowing darkly I could tell he was battling with his inner beast to gain control.

" hey it's okay" I said softly taking a small step towards him. His body tensed up but his eyes became a shade lighter.

" your my mate." The word felt foreign on my tongue. " your the only one who will protect me" I smiled gently. For some reason my brain decided to man up and speak to a kinda strange person I have never met and would properly run from if I met him in a dark alley or something scary like that. Not that meeting him in the middle of the woods wasn't scary enough but I felt oddly....safe.

He groaned loudly, and took a step back from me. The dark night sky was clouded and blocked out the sun but my eyes had always been better then a normal humans so I was still able to see him reasonably well. Light drops of rain drizzled on my head, like fairy footsteps. He took another step back then a another then another until he was at least 5 metres away.

" I can't." He snarled and I flinched. " I can't do that. You need to forget me. I don't want you." He snarled the last ones and took another step back. He body began to violently shake and I heard his clothes tear and his bones snap. Before my eyes he was shifting into a bear of a wolf. His one pale blue eyes shone gold but I couldn't think about how frightening and beautiful his wolf is. His words hurt me, no they killed me. It felt like someone had taken a knife to my chest and was slowly carving out my heart, my skin felt like flames were licking it which sent tingles up my spine. Burning pain exploded in my stomach making me fall to my knees and let out a blood curtailing screech. But I couldn't think about that, I couldn't think how much pain I was in because his words kept playing in my head 'I don't want you' it was worse then the physical pain I was in.

" you don't want me!" I yelped as I buckled over heaving as my chest felt like it was caving in on itself. I heard him whimper somewhere in front of me but I didn't care how upset he was. This total stranger was meant to be my mate, and don't get me wrong I hardly knew anything about mates or the whole werewolf world but you are meant to love your mate, they are meant to be your other part. And he didn't want me, he didn't need me and it hurt more then any physical pain ever could.
