Him:

"I've been looking for her for centuries now, and when I caught her scent at the party, I knew I have to go after her. No way in hell I will miss her. 

When I saw her in her wolf form, it was the most beautiful sight I have ever witnessed in my long life. And once she shifted and looked up at me with her doe eyes, I knew I was done for"

Her:

My heart was beating like crazy and my body was humming in pleasure. I dig my snout onto his neck and grace my canines over his fur absently. He growls in response, biting softly on my neck. I could spend hours smelling him and never get tired of it. He just felt so good, the feeling was incredible. I never felt like this before and I didn't want it to end.

He then pulls away to look directly at my eyes and growls just one word:

"Mine"

Her Return: A New Beginning

I open my eyes with a groan. I don't remember falling asleep. I look around and find myself in Alec... our room at the palace. 


I bolt up, regretting the action immediately. Ugh. My whole body hurts. No, more than hurting, it felt numb, an uncomfortable feeling over my skin. The drug wearing out maybe? 


I look around but I was alone in the room, and the scent of my mate and my friends were faint. I frown, confused. Where are they? 


I get up not paying attention to how weird my body felt and go down the stairs to open the door. Out in the hallway, I see two royal guards standing stiffly facing my door. 


"Where's my mate?" I was not going to play around. The scents here were faint too, only the scents of the guards being strong. I simply can't explain their absence. I was abducted and tortured, and I needed my mate's company, to reassure me that everything is okay, that we are okay. Is Alec still hiding from me because of our argument?
