VICTORIA'S POV
"Do you think she went in shock?"
"What are you talking about? Are you crazy? Don't spout nonsensical things."
"But he is right, why isn't she awake yet?"
"I think you should splash so more water on her face."
"I have a better idea. Throw her into waters. She will wake up when she'll drown."
"Daniel, you better take him out of here, before I decide it's much better to drown him."
"Ignore him. But I do agree with his idea of splashing so water on her."
"I don't know. I am kind of feeling a bit jittery. Will she think I am so kind of monster?"
"Don't overthink. I am sure, she'll understand if we explain her and give her so ti."
"Yeah, maybe you are right. I don't think I can live without her if she decides to leave because of my species. Hunter will be heartbroken, and I don't even know how will I be able to nd things with him."
"We are not done with this mate topic. I think we need to consult so witch regarding the matter. Besides, she is such a brave girl, I don't think she will leave here like this."
"Yeah, but it's not like you co to know-"
"Hey, look her finger moved."
Uhhuh! What was all this noise around ?
'Who are these guys, talking just above my head, to annoy my sleep? Is aunt Marla back? She must be watching movies, I am sure.' I thought as I tried to open my eyes with great difficulty so that I can greet her before she decides to go back to her boyfriend's place.
However, as soon as I opened my eyes, the first thing I noticed were the branches.
Branches? From when do I have branches in my room?
"Hey, you awake? How do you feel? Does your head still hurt?" Suddenly Alexander ca into my sight with a worried expression etched on his face.
"Why would you ask that? What happ-" I stopped mid-sentence when the flashback of the events that happened after the dance started surfacing.
Extending my hand, I touched Alexander's cheeks and sighed loudly when I felt his normal skin instead of the fur that I had seen.
I need to stop watching those unrealistic movies.
"Okay, umm...you can take her back ho, that she is awake now. We'll et later. Yeah?" Daniel said as they all looked at as if I was so kind of ntal patient.
Alexander helped up and supported my body on the tree beside the lake.
Once everyone was out of sight, I looked at Alexander before exclaiming,
"You won't believe what I saw! Before fainting, I feel like I saw Chris, Aiden Sean, and Daniel changing into wolves! Wolves for god's sake! Can you believe that? Even you, you changed into a caveman with large nails and...and...you looked like...thunder..." I trailed off, as I looked at Alexander who didn't have any reaction, since the mont I started talking and was facing the opposite side.
I looked at the beautiful lake, which was shining under the moonlight, before muttering softly,
"You can start with your explanation."
It wasn't hard putting two and two together anymore.
I rember asking Alexander so many tis to go and et thunder with , but he never agreed to, and would always make so excuse.
Then I will always hear growling and roaring sounds whenever these boys are together and we are out.
They have a huge appetite. And that day, I was sure Alexander was wounded with a knife and there was blood on his shirt, but when I checked, there was not even a scratch.
His eyes would always change colors depending on his mood, and his voice will also change its tone from ti to ti as if he was a different person.
I might be wrong, but years of reading those online novels and those movies, web series, indicated one thing only.
Alexander was a werewolf.
But, I still needed so confirmation from him, so kind of thing or hint that he wasn't the thing that I was thinking he was.
Sothing that would tell , it's not just my fantasy or a part of so novel but real life, where supernatural creatures don't exist.
That, I was not in love with my own, personal Jacob from the twilight movie.
"I am hoping you rember what you saw before fainting. I don't want to hide things from you anymore and I won't sugarcoat things either. It's true. I am a werewolf.
I think it's ti I introduce myself to you. Hello, Victoria, I am Alexander Hunter, a werewolf and Alpha king of Pearly canines, the to be the ruler of the werewolf species." Alexander said as he turned around and looked at dead in the eyes.
Well, if this isn't weird.
What did he say, he is a king?
Smiling stiffly, I urged him to continue and tell more about these things so that I can get a hold of the situation I was currently in.
"I don't want to go into details currently, because you won't be able to process that much information in a go."
"As I have ntioned, I am a werewolf and so is almost everyone in this town. Daniel is also an alpha and my beta who works like a...if I put it in your language then manager, while I am the CEO, director, or whatever that helps you understand. We all are a pack of werewolves. However, because of our natural blending among humans, no one ever suspected anything. Even your aunt Marla is a werewolf and the boyfriend she keeps on talking about is her mate.
Now, you must be thinking why, am I telling you all this, and why I targeted you, or maybe sothing along the lines." Alexander said as he took a step forward.
Well, I was indeed thinking that.
Note to self- werewolves also have mind-reading power, so do not think anything bad about anyone, especially here.
"Now to answer your confusion, I am telling you all this, is because, you are my mate, my soulmate, my other and better half who will accompany , marry , fall in love with , bear my kids, help run my pack, for the rest of my life, until our kid takes over the throne after ."
"You are kidding right?" I laughed as I looked at him intently, waiting for him to crack a smile and burst into laughter. However, even after waiting for a minute none of that happened.
"I am not kidding Victoria. Moon goddess or God in your case, gifts us with our destined mate. Every werewolf has a mate, predestined for him. It's rare for a werewolf to find a second chance mate, otherwise one has to live with the love or sorrow of that particular person." He paused before continuing.
"It's not that the mate of a werewolf has to be a werewolf. Just like in our case. You are a human, but I am a werewolf. Humans can also beco our mates. In the last decade, the cases of werewolves having human mates have been more prominent than a werewolf being a mate of a werewolf."
"But, how do I know that you are the person I am destined for?" I finally asked, keeping the fact that my heart was still beating fast, just be the thought of having so mate, at bay.
"The sparks that you feel, whenever you are near , or we hug, hold hands, or like today kiss. This is a clear indication that I am your mate. You won't feel the sa thing with any other male and it will practically break my heart and soul if you go with any other man because my only chance of having the love for my life will be destroyed." Alexander said, as he hid his face at the last sentence, though I was still able to see his glistening eyes, which ant he was feeling emotional.
This was complicated and I don't even know what should I do in a scenario like this.
"Look, Victoria, I don't want to pressurize you into anything. Accepting or not, is totally up to you. I will never for e myself onto you, even if that ans living in agony for my whole life. What I need from you, is love, trust, and care. Rest I will handle.
Marrying will indeed make you Luna queen and that will put so responsibilities on you, but I'll try my hardest to lessen them. I know it's new for you-" Alexander was concentrated on his explanation with his back towards when I felt a piercing pain in my jaws again.
However, this ti, my canines, my ribs, my bones, everything was hurting.
I gasped for air as the intensity of the pain increased.
"If you want so ti, I'll wait for you, until you are ready. I know being human, this is new for you and-" Alexander was still talking, however, none of his words matters to right now.
All I wanted was for this pain to stop. Feeling the excruciating pain in my mouth, I lifted my hand with great difficulty before touching my lips.
Bringing my hand in front, I looked it has so blood on it, as I gasped for air while my canines continued to hurt.
"A-Al-" I wanted to say, but no words or sound, not even a whisper or hissing sound ca out from my mouth
As I looked towards the lake, so that, I can take so water and rinse my mouth which was choking on my blood, I saw another, more shocking sight in front of .
As I looked at my reflection in the lake's clean water and gazed at my mouth, my hairs that had changed their color from pitch black to dark brown, and my eyes, I couldn't help but gasp at the sight.
What the fuckin hell is happening to ?
