Human Mate (bxbxbxgxbxbxb)

Chapter 2

Add POV:
I felt something wet snuffle against my cheek, rousing me from my nap.

"What the..."

"I'm so sorry sir, Pablo, get over here!" A high pitched feminine voice screeched.
I opened my eyes and rubbed hard before looking in the direction of the voice.

It was a middle aged woman with very expensive pink clothing (pink hat, pink fur coat you name it, it was pink). Reminds me of my step-mother.

I looked down and came face to face with a very excited Jack Russell. I'm not fond of Jack Russell's, but he was very cute, white with a little ginger patch just over his right eye.

"Hey buddy," I said to Pablo, voice rusty from sleep. "Thanks for waking me, I have places to be." I gave him a pat on the head and I got a lick in exchange.

"I'm so sorry sir, Pablo wouldn't hurt a fly, he just loves new people."

"No harm done, I'm happy I met Pablo," I stood and stretched. "I'll be on my way, thank you Pablo."
I waved at the two and set off in the direction I think was the parks exit.

30 minutes into walking around the park, I realised I was lost. All I could see were trees and a dirt path I was walking on. I groaned in frustration, but walked on anyway. The park wasn't too big, I could find my way out sooner or later.

20 minutes later, I let out a whoop as a gate with the parks logo came into view. I walked quickly towards it and walked through the gate, then my face dropped.

This isn't the entrance I used before.

It was a completely different shopping area, with way more people than before. Taking a deep breath, I stepped away from the park and into the street, looking for any recognisable landmark.

"Come on Add, you can do this. You've got a reasonably charged phone and plenty of people around you to ask, it's no problem." I mutter to myself, dragging my feet down the road.
I took a deep breath and continued walking. The further I got down the road, the more nervous I felt that I was being watched.
I stopped and looked around.
Nothing.
It's just me stressing over the fact I am alone in an unfamiliar place.
I kept walking.

No! I swear someone is following me.
I turned sharply and looked around carefully.
Still no god damn thing!

I turned back around and yelled in fright at a guy right in front of me.

"Dude!" I put my hand on my heart, which was beating ever so erratically and my nose, which took the brute of the walk-in.
"Have your parents not taught you to make yourself known when in front of a stranger?! Shit!"

"My apologies, I could tell you were lost and wondered if you wanted any help finding your way back home?"

I looked at this man and wow! He's hot! He was towering above my 5ft 4, he had a very muscular build and had blonde hair falling into enthralling green eyes.
I took a deep breath.

"Thanks man, I'd appreciate it. My name's Add by the way."
I reached my hand out to shake, which he reached for rather quickly.

"Hi Add, I'm Rowan. So tell me, where are you headed?" His hand touched mine and I almost yelped with the intensity of an electric shock that went through me.
I gritted my teeth and gave his hand a firm shake.

"I'm supposed to be going back to my hotel where my family and I are staying for our holiday. I went to the park as the shops were boring and I've come out of the wrong exit, so I have no idea where I am anymore." As I realised my predicament, I felt my chest tighten as my breathing started to quicken and my eye sight started to dim.

"Add. Hey, Add? Are you ok?" I could feel Rowan's eyes on me, probably looking concerned (and it was a nice feeling).

"Distract me. Please." I gasped out.

"How?"

"I don't know, anything, hurry!"

As I felt my lungs tighten even further, I felt arms wrap around my shoulders and my head gently placed onto his chest.
As soon as his scent reached my oxygen short sensors, my body went lax in his embrace. He smelt glorious, of cinnamon and chocolate, a very calming scent. I buried my head in his chest and slowly breathed in.

"You OK Add? Do I need to call anyone?"

"J-just give me a moment," I then realised I was technically being held by a stranger.
"Actually, I'm feeling better, I'll let go now."

"You're lying. Rest for a bit, it's OK." Rowan shushed me, his voice melodic to my ears.
As he quietly whispered for me to sleep, my exhausted brain finally decided it would be a good time to shut down.
It's only for a little while...

Rowan POV:
I held the beauty in my arms. She was so scared once she realised that she was lost, I'm sure her family are worried sick.
I hefted her up into my arms and mind linked the others.

I've got her, she's passed out in my arms, so I'm bringing her home so we can introduce her.

So she's a girl? Michael asked.

She smells like one.

Awesome, a female for River.

Wait..  Why is she passed out? River pipped up.

I managed to get her and asked her if she was OK, she mentioned that she came out of the wrong exit from the park, once she seemed to realise, she started to panic and I allowed her to smell my scent, which she calmed down and passed out in my arms. So I'm bringing her home to calm down and introduce her to everyone.

What is she called?

Add.

Unusual, but beautiful all the same. I guess we're not needed, so we'll see you at home.

See you soon, mates.

Don't forget the ice cream!

Screw the ice cream River, we have better things to do now.

Fine, fine.

See you soon handsome. Michael purred and closed the link, along with the rest of them.

I looked down and smiled softly at Add's calm face, snuggled into my chest.

She will be loved by everyone, I do not doubt that at all.

And with that, I started the short journey home.
