Mates But Enemies

Nadia's POV

I hadn't necessarily had it good in my life, I never wanted to mess with the wrong attachments but fate it's own say in my life. One night stand and pop, a son appeared, I intended to make a relationship out of it but I didn't know if it was natural or intentional. He just couldn't stick to one person or should I say being?

I let him go even suffering a heartbreak from it but it wasn't over. Those bastards wouldn't just let me be.

After a stressful night at the office, I decided to go for a ride to release some steam. Even though I used to work on weekends, I had decided against that for sometime.

I drove my Camry through town and listened to music as I sung along. I was a few miles from my house when I noticed that a car was following me and it took every turn I did.

I wasn't bothered the least because I thought I was armed until I checked to see it was nowhere to be found.

"Damn you Dad, now I am in trouble " I cursed.

I started speeding up and it followed right behind me, I thought I was on my way home until I saw that I was rather on the highway.

'Shit, who could this be? is this a robbery? are they going to eventually kill me?' I thought as I kept on speeding.

Then I saw I had completely lost my way so I took my phone and quickly sent my location to the police. Since I was watching my way, I looked up to see a truck right in front of me and I was running into it in a few meters away. So I hurriedly stepped on the brakes and turned the wheel in my left direction but it was a huge mistake. I ran straight into the woods and hit a tree directly in front of me, my head crashed with the wheel and as a result blood started dripping down my head. Injured and in pain, I opened the door and it opened, I thanked my stars I wasn't locked up and got out if it slowly.

I looked on the road to find the car that was chasing me stop with the truck too. A man stepped out of the car with a gun in his hands and I made a ran for it, it wasn't that I couldn't defend myself but I knew with guns and me defend less, I couldn't have too much luck.

A few minutes later, I stopped to check my surrounding to find myself nowhere, fear and frustration ran wild in my body. And my shirt stained with so much blood, I was pleased I was in jeans and sneakers otherwise I wouldn't know how I could manage to so far.

Then suddenly I heard howls coming from where the moon was the brightest and footsteps coming my way. I wondered how they could trace me so easily in the forest but that was far from the problem at hand, they were getting closer and I needed to do something.

I didn't know which way to go at that point, to the animals howling or to the people coming my way, the most dangerous among them I didn't know. So I took to the darkest part and took a wood in my hand. I hid behind a tree ready to attack anything that came my way. I heard one loud howl and everything went silent, I didn't know what was happening then.

Soon I heard human cries and growls.

'What is going in there?' I wondered.

A few minutes later, and everything went silent again, then I heard a small growl right beside the tree I was hiding. I got up silently and quickly peeked at the back if the tree to find, bodies on the ground, as to whether they were alive or not I didn't know. I got back into hiding shaking in fear, the animal growled louder and I almost pissed on myself. So I got up once again and mastered all my strength in the wood I was holding.

The animal's head popped slightly in front of me and I jumped and stricken him as hard as I could and made a ran for it in the direction I had come from. I heard the animal howl again and I turned to look at it to find the most brightest green eyes I've ever seen.

I watched it for a few seconds and saw it limp forward and I knew I had injured his left leg. I ran again with determination and saw flashlights coming my way so I hid behind another tree. I peeked at them to find out they were actually the police. They led me out of the forest but then those bloodshot brightest green eyes were not leaving my sight.

I was enchanted by those eyes.

Logan's POV.

Being the alpha of the new founded pack had been trying and tiring but it was worth it. My parents and I lived in another country but I left them to leave my own life my satisfaction. Upon my arrival, I found people of my nature and upon numerous contests, I ended up as their alpha. It was my day off work but I was called to deliver woods to someone in the next town. Being alone in the house was a reason I took the offer and decided to go. At the age of thirty seven, I had no mate and I had done all I could to save myself from any woman all for the one for me.

I was supposed to go hunting with my pack on the brightest moon light then, but I decided against it. I had been prophesied that I would find my mate on the brightest moon light and I had been searching for her every moonlight in the city and the woods but it was to no avail. I was getting tired of doing the same thing every month and that day was one of those days.

I drove my on the highway, to my destination, I had my iPod playing music but I was still paying attention to the way. Suddenly, I heard a screech of tires behind the truck and I knew that someone had almost hit the truck.

I stopped the truck to see the incident, I stepped out of it to see that it was a Benz and it had actually hit a tree. I took a step forward but saw that another car had stopped and three men had stepped out of it.

'This seems to be a crime scene. ' I thought.

I turned to go to avoid any circumstances so I stepped on the stepper to enter the truck but then a scent I loved passed by my nose. I wasn't to kill that night, if it was animals or humans. I loved the scent of blue ixora but I didn't use it myself, as soon as I smelt it, my wolf purred within me. I was about to enter the car but then I smelt blood coming from the same way the perfume came from. This time, my wolf became unstable within me, it wanted to come out but I controlled it and locked my car.

I made my way to the Benz, my wolf screeched and bared it's teeth but I had no idea why it was acting up the way it was because if the blood. It was the first time we had smelt a blood, I went closer to the car and I saw the men coming to it too. I turned into my unseen form and looked through the car with them, I saw the blood the wheel even though it was dark in car. The men saw that she wasn't in the car and made their way to where she had ran to, they pulled their guns and run in her direction.

The third man with the two howled loudly and I knew that they would find her because of her blood. It was rogue among them, as soon as my wolf felt the rogue, he purred with me annoyingly, before I could do anything, my body started cracking up. Then it took over, and followed after the men and the blood. We then heard howls from the other side and I knew that she might have thought that it was all over.

'Would she give up?' I thought.

We took the shortest way to her and stood in the dark to see what she was going to do. We saw her stand in the middle of nowhere contemplating on what to do.

She took a wood and ran and hid behind a tree, we approached the criminals who were now standing at where she was before. We heard other howls from the others and we howled louder to keep them off. This alerted the criminals and they looked our way, the rogue wanted to turn so we launched at him first reaching for his neck and ripping it apart. Then licked the blood off our mouth.

The others looked on shock filled in their entire body making them unable to move. We could touch their fear in the air, we went closer and growled, they took steps back and intended to run. But we weren't having that, we jumped and our claws landed on their throats, they screamed but it ended as soon as it came. The other guy shot his gun but we jumped out of its way and finished him off. Every where became quiet as a grave yard and we could hear her heartbeat and her fear. But she wasn't afraid as I thought she would, instead of cowering in fear, she was rather ready to attack. I had wanted to turn back to a human but my wolf wanted to see her first, I knew she would be frightened if she saw as like that but it wouldn't listen.

My wolf made his way to her and she swung the wood, I would have seen her intentions but I was too focused with the way her heart beat along with mine in the same sync. The wood unfortunately hit my left leg and we growled in pain, she ran away from us but then she suddenly looked back at us. And we howled back at her as she turned and ran off once again. I would have healed immediately but I wasn't and I knew she was a mysterious being and I hated her in my bones.

The pain in my leg vanished gradually after I turned into a human, I tried walking but started limping.

"What did that bitch do to me?" I cursed.

Upon my arrival at my truck, I saw a note stuck on the door to the driver's seat. It read,

"You are to report to the police station tomorrow morning to report on the accident that just occurred or as a possible criminal. If you don't abide by the rules, you would be arrested for refusal of arrest and sanctioned in the court room. "

It irritated me so much that I had wanted to tear the sheet into pieces but stopped because I didn't want to be sanctioned as a criminal when I was only doing good.

It wouldn't have been the first time, for getting into trouble for doing good hence my frequent traveling from country to another. But I wasn't ready to move this time, I wasn't some rich alpha but I was respected by all in the pack including those who were richer than I was.

But then, I became confused, I didn't know where to report to because I was in the middle of two towns. So I decided to report at the police station at the town I was taking the wood to and if it wasn't the place, I would report to the other in the other town where I stayed for the moment.

I did as I said I would and reported to the station but I was told it wasn't where the case was being handled. I drove back to the other town and went to the police station but I was told to come the next day. They would inform the victim to come and identify me but for the mean time I should go home since they didn't have the evidence to arrest me.

I went to the boss and reported to him but I ended up being sacked from my job place because I was late on delivery and that I was now limping. The help that I had offered had then rendered me jobless.

I got home and got ready to go to bed in the evening but I felt hungry, so I got up and wore a sweat pant and tee-shirt and walked out of my apartment. I was trotting to my favorite restaurant which took me five minutes from my apartment but this time, I was taking way too much time for my liking.

I got to this particular building and heard a strong heart beat from it and I knew that the person in it was too afraid for his or her own good. I walked past it but it was as strong as it was than before, I intended to ignore it but I couldn't go forward again.

"Damn, this intent to help had rendered me limp a few hours ago but here I am going at it once again. " I cursed loudly but suddenly turned to look at it.

I knew that going through the front door was like looking for trouble, so I searched for another way to get in. I saw a window not very far from where I was and it was where the heart beat was coming from. It was my only way in so I jumped and landed on the building after I had released my claws, then I smelt a stench of blood too. I hoped the person in there was alive, and I jumped once again and this time I landed by the window. I swung my self and hit the window as hard as I could and it broke up open then I landed in it on my one knee.

As soon as I entered my leg ached in pain but I ignored it as much as I could and searched for the person. I saw a huge cage in the middle of the dark room with only the the light of the moon that peeped into it. Then I saw a little boy holding the bars and watching me, but nothing of his expression showed fear but only wonder. But then his heartbeat was destroying my ear drums which surprised me greatly, if he wasn't afraid, then why the loud heartbeat?
