Andre

PRESENT

”My King, everyone is set and ready, awaiting your command”

With a long sigh, I replied to one of my elite warriors.

”Take the lead, I’ll join you later”

There’s an upcoming ball for the unmated to try and find their mates. The moonstone pack will be hosting it this time and I’m going there along with the members of my council and some of my elite warriors prior to the event for a meeting about some treaties and land disputes the alpha was concerned about. My spies have made me aware of how happy and proud the alpha is about my arrival because, I could have sent someone in my stead but I chose to come in person. Well… there is an ulterior motive though, there has been rumors about some conspiracy brewing in the moonstone pack, my spies have confirmed it and I’ll be going in person to handle it. This is also something I could have left to my more than capable beta but I need to release some pent up energy. My wolf has been agitated all night long and it has affected my mood. I reach for comfort through my mate bond but like always, it’s blocked off. I’m sure this is a feet my sweet mate’s mother was able to achieve because She is still in their realm, I still feel her, though faintly. I need to get my unhinged wolf under control and I decide to run to the moonstone pack in wolf form, hopefully it will cool it down. Just when I was about leave for the woods to shift, I felt it. The mate bond was realigning itself and now, I could feel it so strongly, my mate has just entered this realm.

After I got to the moonstone pack, I went along with the other officials present to begin the meeting. Half way through, my mom mind linked me, telling me she had just bumped into someone who could potentially be my mate and will be keeping track of her for me until I can come and confirm it myself. My mom joined my squad impromptu because, she had a new invention she wanted to try out. She is one of my best weapons engineer. I did become distracted after what she said earlier about my potential mate. My mom was able to sense my twin, Andrea’s mate when she first met him. According to her, she felt an unexplainable bond to him similar to what she felt with Andrea and I, he felt like a son to her and it turned out she was right. I wouldn’t believe her if I didn’t feel my mate in this realm, aside that, my wolf is pacing at the back of my mind wanting to take over to search for my mate. I had to cut the meeting short when I half shifted. I was gradually loosing the battle to my wolf, I have to go find her. I rushed to the cottage where my mom said they would be. My appearance startled my mom when I got there.

”Where is she?”

I asked in a guttural tone, a clear sign that my wolf is on the surface…well if my partial shift doesn’t give it away.

”I think she went for a run, you have to get a hold of yourself, you’re unconsciously sending distress signals, our squad and the officials are looking for you.

Go find her, I’ll just reassure the others you’re fine”

I took off in a sprint towards the woods, I removed my suit jacket just before I fully shifted. In wolf form, I held it in my muzzle, in case she shifted and would need to be covered. I let my wolf take full control and with the pull of the bond, I tracked her down. I did find her dozed off at the shore of what looked like a pond in her majestic wolf form, its colour a pure white that rivals that of the snow. I dropped the suit jacket and stared at the beauty in front of me, it really is her. She came to find me, in truth I didn’t think she would come despite marking her 50 years ago, i thought her mother would have found a way to get rid of the mark or server our bond, but she’s here today, it could only mean one thing, her mother failed to keep us apart and my beautiful mate escaped. I watch as she tried to subtly run from me, pretending she didn’t notice my presence. I stood still, admiring her lithe form as she moved, I’m so whipped, the inner peace I felt when I found her is disrupted when I finally realized I have to go get her before she vanishes, she needs to know who I am to her. I use a different route to intercept her and my breath is taken away by her gorgeous bluish green eyes. Then and there, I made a vow to protect her with my life.
