Xavier's POV

I was running in the woods, my wolf finally at ease. I pushed my legs to run at full speed, enjoying the swooshing sound of air caused by my wolf's large body. I ran for a while then I reached a clearing. There was a small pond, the moonlight illuminating the clear water. I drank some water from it.

Suddenly, I was enveloped by the sweet honey and lavender scent. My wolf's head snapped up, ears standing to hear any movement. He started purring and jumping around in my mind.

Okay, I think he has gone crazy. But, I can't help but feel drawn to the scent. Was it- Could it be the girl from the other night. Alex started purring excitedly, forcing me to follow the scent. I hesitated at first but decided to follow it.

I trudged cautiously towards my right where the scent was coming from. I walked behind the trees and hid behind them. A body passed by me and my mind went haywire due to the scent. That- that scent. It must be that girl. Alex started jumping around my mind and screaming at me to go near her. I quietly followed behind her to see her resting her back on the tree at the boundary of the clearing. A twig snapped under my paw and I cursed at myself for not being silent. I looked up to and saw that she had turned.

She started backing away. Moonlight illuminated her face and I was awestruck. She was the most beautiful woman I have ever seen. Her dark brown hair flowing over her shoulder. She looked like an angel to me. Her scent enveloped me once again. I suddenly wanted to touch her, to hold her in my arms.

"Mate! Mate! Hold mate!" my wolf started screaming at me, trying to push me back of my mind and take over but I didn't let him.

My jaw almost hit the ground at his declaration. She was so beautiful and- and so young. I decided to walk out of the shadows and show myself. I trudged leisurely towards her. Suddenly, she spotted me and screamed loudly. I couldn't help but cringe as the noise hurt my sensitive ears. She was frozen at her spot. I shifted back into human form. She was still looking at me wide-eyed.

I stepped into the clearing, moonlight illuminating my face only. I trudged towards her predatorily, my gaze never wavering from hers. I reached near her and pulled near in my arms, small shocks confirming my wolf's declaration. She was after all my mate. She must have realized that I am naked as she gasped.

"Mate," I growled into her ear, her body shivered upon hearing my voice.

I buried my head in the crook of her neck, breathing deeply in her scent. The scent that kept me and my wolf restless last night. Suddenly, she gasped and backed away from my arms.

"Wh- who are you?" she asked suddenly in her angelic voice.

Oh God! Even her voice was sweet and angelic. Wait! she doesn't know me? The Head warrior's daughter was the only one who missed the ceremony. That means she is Evangeline or Eva as dad was calling her. Pretty name for an even more beautiful girl. I smirked at the thought.

"Little girl, I am your new Alpha, Alpha Storm," I told her.

She gasped in shock as she started backing away. Suddenly, she tripped over something and before I could catch her, her head hit a tree trunk and she slipped into unconsciousness.

"Oh sh*t!" I panicked, my wolf whimpering.

I rushed to her side and picked her up. I examined her head but there was no bleeding.

"Thank God," relief flooded.

I picked her up, sparks erupted as I touched her. Her scent enveloped me like a blanket, warming my heart. I shivered at that, my wolf howling in joy. I ran with her in my arms towards the pack house.
