Saved By A Nerd

A TEENAGER?!

CHAPTER 2

WHEN June is certain that the thugs were gone she approached the dark alley. Soft cries emit from the darkness.

"Hello." She muttered. She put her hands up to let the person in the dark know that she mean no harm. "I'm here to help. The men who harassed you were gone already."

A loud sob and a scratching sound later, June felt a small body collide to hers. Two slim arms surround her torso.

She was rooted on her feet as sparks bombarded her senses.

This is what they have been telling her. When mates touched, sparks will be felt.

June grinned. She tentatively put her right hand at the lower back of the woman in her arms. As if it calms her, the sob reduced to soft cries.

She felt the bare skin in her palm. Sparks speak louder.

She sniffed. They said, your mate will smell like your favorite thing in the world.

Her smile widen. The woman in her arms is indeed her mate. She smelled like sweet strawberries. Like her favorite milkshake and shortcake.

June looked up and utter her gratitude to the moon goddess for the blessing that is in her arms. She found the person made for her. Finally, at 28 years old she got hold of her mate.

A while ago at the bar, she was having a meltdown. The two years that the alpha gave her is coming to an end in four weeks. She was feeling hopeless already.

She expressed another 'thank you' by having a female mate. The moon goddess really knew her children.

Her sexual preference was one of June's dilemma. Though she openly informed her immediate family that she likes women, the moon goddess all wantwd to assure that the population of the werewolf community will not perish. The goddess normally paired off male and female werewolves. She seldom put together same sex couple. Only a small part of the pack population has same sex mates.

June was never attracted to men in general. She has been praying to the mother of werewolves to gift her with a woman for a mate. She would probably reject her mate if he was indeed male. Thank goodness, the goddess listened to her plea.

June looked down. She openly stared at her mate.

In her height of five foot - eight inches, the woman in her arms just reached her chin.

She caressed the black, shoulder length mane of her mate. Her sob finally stopped.

"You're safe now."

"Thank you."

Gently, her mate pulled away from her. June will be able to see the face of the person that the moon goddess blessed her with.

With messy hair, a tear-stained face look up.

June's gray eyes met hazel eyes. Wet long lashes adorned rounded eyes. Thin lips and button nose complimented her round face.

Her petite mate is beautiful.

"Feeling better?" She asked with a smile. Her little mate nodded. "We should get out of here."

June guided her mate towards her bike. She put the helmet at the petite woman's head. She helped her ride in the bike before turning on the accelerator.

They stopped in front of the convenience store. She helped her passenger before unmounting herself. She leaned on the bike and aid the petite woman in removing the helmet.

In the bright light, her mate is more beautiful. Her expressive eyes screamed innocence.

A frown marred June's face. She gazed at her mate intently. Her mate is quite young.

Goddess.

"How old are you?"

"Eighteen."

Oh, goodness.

She scratched her nape. She looked up. In her mind, she is asking the moon goddess why she was given a very young mate.

"Are you okay?"

Her eyes returned to her young mate. She appeared younger that her age.

June noticed the scratched in her mate's forehead and the discoloration of her left cheek.

The taller woman gently caressed the bruised area. Her mate did not protest.

"I should send you home. Your parents might be worried."

"Please."

"Tell me your exact address."

A nod and a few exchange of words later, they were back on the road.
