The wolf jumped into the air and tackled me. Grabbing my small pocket wolfsbane knife I stabbed it into its neck .
Ryan was a few meters away from me. Barely conscious. He had to take on a whole pack by himself. His parents were dead. His pack members were either injured or submitted to the new alpha.
I stood up on shaky legs and ran to him
"Ryan, you have to run"
his beautiful wolf form was stained with blood and injuries. His eyes flashed golden.. like he heard me and slowly he got up and started walking or better yet limping.
" just follow that straight path Ryan... I'm right behind you. I'm going to stall as many as I can. Keep walking until you see the blue car." I instructed while turning to face about 4 new enemy pack members boxing me in.
Cracking my fingers, I smirked at the wolves. I was one of the best elite vampires. They stood no chance.
15 minutes later
I winced as I walked towards the car I think one of my ribs is broken. But those wolves got what they deserved.
In the distance I can see the war happening on the other side of the field. The enemy pack members were murdering Ryan's pack members. Since they couldn't find the alpha. This wasn't a part of their plan. They came here to kill my mate. They never thought this would happen.
That he would get away.
Reaching the car. I unlocked it and saw Ryan still in wolf form crouched by the passenger side.
"Oh Ryan." I held back tears
Crouching down with him I whispered
" you're going to have to shift back."
This time he didn't fight me like earlier when I told him to run. Slowly the fur turned to human skin. And what once was a Perfectly sculpted chest is now covered in blood and dirt.
I sighed deeply and said " let's get you in the car"
Opening the passenger seat I helped him in. His eyes were distant but gone was the warrior look. He looked sad and defeated. Securing his seatbelt. I ran to the driver's side. Weary that we may be followed. I started the car and put it in reverse. Leaving the dirt trail behind and entering  the back  road. As we drove Ryan was quiet. He started shivering so I stopped the car and put a blanket over him. He stayed quiet letting me take care of him. Must be a mate thing I thought to myself. Grabbing a hold of his hand I intertwined my right hand fingers with his. And I drove with my left one. We were fortunate enough to not be followed.
I know that if I wasn't his mate he wouldn't have let me do this. But this was the only way.
A couple of hours ago
I stumbled upon the invasion papers. Alpha Jackson has decided to submit an official paper to launch a surprise attack on Ryan's pack. I drove like a mad woman. Trying to reach Him in time to warn him. But when I got there. The west lake pack( Ryan's) has taken a big hit. Ryan fought off dozens of wolves. He lost his parents, his second and third in command. Jackson's pack killed everything in their sight.
Vampires made sure to keep the peace. But werewolves liked to fight over land and power. Something we couldn't keep them from doing.
Present time
Seeing so many landmarks and trees pass by. I sighed in relief knowing I saved my mate. Ryan was no longer shivering and for that I was thankful. You see Ryan and I have known each other since we were kids. In fact Ryan Jackson and I used to be the best of friends. But I guess times changed.
I left before Ryan shifted to go to a boarding training vampire school. So I never knew he was my soulmate. Not until I came back a few weeks ago. I've heard stories and rumors amongst the vampires at the school about his womanizing ways but I always laughed it off. Not knowing he was my mate and neither did he. We drifted off. He took over his pack after his parents. And he was doing well ( well enough to be a player.. that thought didn't sit well with me) .
Nevertheless, Jackson has always been envious of the land the west lake pack had. And I guess he finally did something about it after years of planning.
Stealing a glance at my mate. I found his breathing has changed signaling the fact that he's sleeping. It was going to be a long drive but I just hoped Ryan could move past this some way somehow.
