Chapter 4: Nightmares & Soulmates

Start from the beginning
                                    

After I finished packing I put my duffel over my shoulder, grabbed my staff, and preformed a location spell, by making my staff glow and as I would get closer to the lake it would get brighter and brighter. I took a few steps West, it dimmed. I took a few steps East and it became a little brighter. So I started walking, every so often my staff would get brighter and brighter.

TIME SKIP TO AROUND 5:15-

I was sitting on a fallen log, trying to catch my breath. I was at the top of a hill, just a few minutes from the lake. I had been walking for 5 hours, taking a break here and there, but I was still worn out. I had extinguished my staff a minute ago, because the hill was high enough to where I could see the lake below me in a large clearing. Also it was bugging the fuck out of me because of how bright it was getting. I took a deep breath and started to walk down the hill. As I reached the bottom my amulet started to glow. I froze. That only meant one thing. Danger. My amulet always warned me when danger was around, that way I could ready myself. I willed it to stop glowing and it went out immediately. Then I heard it. A twig snapping. I began scanning my surroundings, the feeling of being watched bearing into me.

"Show yourself!" I shouted. "I'm not afraid!" Boy would I ever be so wrong. 8 giant wolves came out of the trees, trying to surround me. There was no way in hell I would let them. I ran as fast as I could into another direction the wolves hot on my trail. I tried using magic to scare them away. I levitated fallen braches and big rocks, making them fly at the wolves. They easily dodged them. They were smart, too smart... then it clicked. They were werewolves! I had accidentally waltzed into their territory! I. Was. Fucked. I kept running, until I reached a tiny clearing, stopping like an idiot to catch my breath.

In 2 seconds flat the wolves had me surrounded. I was trapped. I got into my battle position ready to fight, but not stupid enough to make the first move. I made my staff glow with fire magic, while standing extremely still. I glared at the few wolves I had in my line of vision, and saw one of them making their eyes glow pitch black. She was probably using their special mind link to contact someone. Probably their alpha, because these wolves were HUGE, but not enough to be the alpha. So I waited patiently for him/her to arrive. I still kept my position and glare, just to be safe.

A few minutes later 2 more wolves arrived at the clearing. Both were giants compared to the others. One wolf was a nice mixture of browns with gold tints here and there. He had vibrant green eyes. The other wolf however was clearly the alpha. He was largest wolf there, he had midnight black fur, and beautiful, deep royal blue eyes. He must have said something through their mind-link, because his eyes went pitch black before going back to their natural blue. He then started shifting into his human form, the others staying as wolves. When he was fully shifted i could barely stay in position and keep my glare.

The alpha looked no older than 18, 6'4, so muscular to where you could see his muscles under his shirt, short styled black hair, nice sharp jawline, the same beautiful deep royal blue eyes, naturally tanned skin, with pearly white teeth. I took a deep breath, composing myself. He might be insanely attractive, but I couldn't let my guard down. He could be dangerous for all I knew.

"But he's not", a small voice whispered in my head.

"How do you know?" I questioned the voice.

"Just look into his eyes", the voice answered. I could hear an eye-roll.

I looked into his gorgeous blue eyes and the most wonderful smell took over me. It was my favorite scent... eucalyptus mint. I closed my eyes, taking in the smell. It was amazing! I opened my eyes to realize... the smell was coming from HIM! I then felt a very small tug in my chest, like an invisible rope was pulling me to him. I knew what it was instantly... THE MATE BOND!

I was this werewolf's MATE?! This makes no sense! I'm a mage! He's a werewolf! I don't know what their goddess was playing at, but I'm not sure if I like it or not. As all of these thoughts spun in my head, I noticed the alpha was only a few feet away from me, slowly approaching. Without thinking, I raised my staff. And he stopped. I didn't use magic. He stopped from shock. I could see traces of hurt in his eyes, but I stayed strong, regretting what I did. But again, without thinking, I said this-

"Don't. Take. Another. Step.", I warned, glaring at all of them. "Or become nothing but ash in the wind!"
