He was leaning against the wooden stable doors. He was gorgeous. He had messy, black hair which stood on end and his eyes were a soft, bright green which contrasted with his pale complexion. He had high cheek bones and well rounded, full lips. As my eyes travelled down his body, I could see he was well shaped and muscular, but it wasn't the first thing you would notice about him. Even from a distance, I could see he would tower over me. I then took it upon myself to notice his tail as it whipped silently behind him, it was long and was about as thick as my wrist. I nearly fixated on it, it was skin coloured all the way down to the end where it ended pointedly with a black tuft of hair. I looked up, he pushed off the stable doors, stood and smiled cautiously.

'' Hello my beautiful Eve, I'm William Emyr and your mate'' he greeted gently. His voice was amazing, it was like honey, it was sweet and flowed perfectly.

'' Hi'' I managed to squeak. He smiled again, his smile was warm and kind and was currently turning my legs to jelly. I cursed him for having such an effect on me.

''Eve, may I come closer?'' he asked. I nodded slowly. He moved towards me and soon enough he was beside me, my head only reaching his chest. He smelled of expensive aftershave and home but none the less I was intimidated. He slowly took my hand and I felt lightening flow up through my body from my hand. It travelled through my body, shorting every nerve ending. I gasped.

'' It's our bodies reacting to each other, their recognising each other. We are without doubt mates'' he growled through gritted teeth, trying to restrain himself.

'' Sorry'' I mumbled meekly, hoping he wouldn't flip and rape me in the stables.

''Eve, forgive me I should be able to control myself better'' he said, taking his hand from mine. ''But do not apologise for our bond, it's beautiful and some people waste a lifetime looking for what we have but we don't have to'' He looked at me with an emotion I couldn't identify before striding away. I was well and truly screwed.

'' Come'' he smiled softly, as he disappeared into the 'L' shaped building which blocked the cars from going up the main building. I followed him into the building and he grabbed my arm and dragged me towards the half of the building which blocked off the sandy drive.

'' The courtyard back there is as far as the cars go, they park in the garage and we ride the rest of the way in. My family and I like to leave more unnatural technologies outside of the estate'' he explained to me.

'' When you said 'ride' do you mean horse riding?'' I asked.

''Yes, I do'' he smiled, as we rounded the corner I saw ten individual stables, only two of them occupied. In them stood two beautiful horses. One was around sixteen' two and was a dark chestnut colour. While the other was quite shocking, he was jet black and probably about twenty hands tall. I couldn't believe it, I’d never seen a horse that large before.

''Your horses are obviously to small for us so we have genetically altered them to suit us'' He yet again explained after seeing my expression.

''Oh'' was all I managed. I was angry at myself, I was behaving like a bumbling idiot who would fall helplessly into William's arms.

''Come, the chestnut one is yours and her name is Sairjado, it means beauty in the old language and this one is obviously mine and his name is Tarizino which means strength in the old language . Do you want a hand up?'' he asked.

''No and how do you know if I even ride?'' I snapped in return.

''I know you do'' he winked.
