Chapter 4- Meeting Up

Violet’s point of view-

My foot unconsciously kept on tapping on this crusty, run down diner. I kept my hood up in case anybody recognized me, I had already masked my scent to make me smell human, I knew that the person that I was waiting for knew who I was and how I acted.

After I ran away from William’s territory I had masked my scent in case he had called any surrounding Alpha’s to keep an eye out for me or if he had sent someone to get me. It pained me when I heard his pained and broken howl a few miles after I left. I had to sit down and breathe through the pain with the help of my wolf. With the thought of knowing that we would see each other again someday and that we will have a future is what is going to make me go through the distance and time away from my mate. I know that one day I will go back to him or that we will meet again, I just hope that he has faith in my beliefs, but even with my vision, the future will always remain uncertain, anything can change…anything can happen.

“Ahh, young Violet it’s been a while,” I heard a deep and all too familiar voice say as they sat in front of me.

I nodded my head and looked at him through my lashes, he hasn’t changed one bit.

James Milton, same brown eyes, light brown hair, 6’ height, strong built, has the mean look on his face, but secretly a child at heart….my childhood best friend.

I smiled at him and he smiled back, can’t talk?

No, that’s why I sent out the mind request. A lot has happened James and I need your help getting through it and what and who is after me.

He nodded, something about you has changed, he inspected.

I sighed, I met my mate, but I didn’t stick around long enough to find out anything other than his name. I know that if I stayed any longer the mate bond would grow and I wouldn’t be able to leave.

You did good, who is he?

William Silver, but for right now enough of that; I need to hide…

How long?

I don’t know, until I figure out a plan; figure out what to do until I can go back home.

Ok, Vi explain everything now, James demanded.

“I’ll have a cheeseburger with fries and a coke, she’ll have a chicken sandwich with fries and a sprite,” James said as the waitress came over giving him the googly eyes.

She nodded before giving me a small glare and leaving.

I sighed before getting ready to explain everything, remember when we were attacked back home? And to keep us safe we had to be separated?

Yea, but that was two years ago, we’re still supposed to be in hiding, and I really want to know why you’re here, not that I’m not happy, but why?

About two months after I moved to the Shadow Pack with Uncle Matt and his wife, there was an attack from another pack. Uncle Matt thought it was the people that had found us, but it wasn’t. They died that night James, along with most of the pack. The teens ran away, some waited for their parents or other members, the others ran. I ran away because I had nothing else in that pack. My aunt and uncle were killed right before my eyes, I was too fast for them or else I would be dead too. About a state over we were attacked by hunters. Wolves were tortured, experimented on, murdered! I was there for over a year waiting for death to come to me, but it never did. After one slip up from the hunters we were able to escape. It’s been two weeks since I escaped, one since I met my mate and a couple days now that I left him. They’re after me James, I feel like they know my secret and if they find out who I really am, they’ll associate with the wrong people and we’ll be dead. I need to go into hiding

James was in shock, while I wiped away my tears and nodded to the new waiter that brought us our meals.

James was deep in thought while I calmed myself by drinking a little soda.

I know of a witch who lives in a small cottage in the woods, we’ve gotten quite acquainted, I’m sure she’ll let you stay with her, maybe she’ll help you with things.

Thank you

We ate after that while catching up on the two years we’ve been apart. James to me was like an older brother, we’ve been best friends since we were in diapers.

How is your other side? I mean I know you weren’t fed correctly wherever they kept you, you’re too pale, too skinny, not the Vi I know.

My senses are all over the place, I was surprised when my wolf was able to find our mate. I’m too weak to fight; I can only run right now, I need to start training again too. It’s like it’s dormant….

Come on, James said as he paid for our meals and stood up. I looked side to side before following James to the alley next to the diner.

I took off my hood as James turned his head, I smelled the air and all I smelled was again the all too familiar smell of James, my taste buds were going off the roof even though I had just scarfed down a meal, my fangs grew and I could feel my other side come out, I could see my eye color change as I looked into James’ eyes. I buried my face in his neck as James held my hips. I couldn’t control my hunger; I buried my fangs into his neck and moaned. I felt as James rubbed my back in encouragement, I could always feed as much as I wanted to from James, wolf’s pumped blood faster so we never ran out.

I feel like we were there for hours, but we were actually there for no more than 45 minutes.

I took a deep breath as my fangs shrunk and for the first time in over a year my stomach was full and my hunger satisfied. I could feel my energy come back and I closed my eyes reciting some words in my head and I felt instant relief in my throat knowing that all traces were gone, I looked at my hands and noticed all the scars gone, a little bit of my tan came back and now I could see more than just bone.

“Thank you,” I croaked, I have to get used to using my voice again, it’s been three months since I’ve talked.

“You have nothing to apologize for Vi, I’m always here you for you,” he smiled as he hugged me and I hugged him back.

I froze as I felt tingles surround me; James pulled back and looked at me confused.

My other side whispered, “Mate,” and I went into shock as I felt something in my heart and something in the pit of my stomach….

I sensed him before I saw him, I turned around and locked eyes with a pair of striking silver ones, but they weren’t like I saw them a few days ago. These eyes seemed broken, sad, hurt, and angry…

“William,” I whispered lowly as I wiped away the blood from my mouth, I knew he didn’t hear me because I whispered it so low.

“Vi?” James whispered from behind me, I watched as William looked at me once more before walking away, I walked out of the alley behind him ready to go explain when James grabbed my arm and tugged me back lightly, I turned to yell at him to let me go but when he shook his head I knew what it meant….it was best like this, for William to hate me at least for now, until I fix everything and we can be together again…

I knew it was the best thing to do right now, but I can’t have the look of utter heart break on William's face be that last thing I remember of him for who knows how long…

I shook my head and snatched my arm back before following William’s scent which was now at the forest line.

I grabbed his arm and he looked at me in anger.

“Why?! Was I not good enough to be your mate?! We find each other and you leave me to be with another! I should go back and break that fuckers face!” William shouted and I winced.

I looked at William, not sure if I should do what I’m about to do, but looking at William right now I thought ‘fuck it,’ before shaking my head softly and taking William’s face in my hands gently before going on my tip toes and kissing him.

It took him a few seconds for the shock to pass him but when it did he hugged me to him and kissed back, I don’t know how long we were there kissing in each other’s embrace, but when we stopped to breathe in some air, I tried to take a step back but William just held me tighter. After a few minutes I know I made the wrong choice by following him because now my wolf was restless to be marked and mated by our mate.

I took a deep breath after taking a step back, surprisingly William let me; I paced for a few seconds while William looked at me.

“Are you ready to go home now?” William asked and I stopped and looked at him in confusion, but his serious demeanor didn’t change letting me know he was being absolutely serious.

“No,” I whispered and William gasped.

“You can talk now?!” William shouted as he ran to me and picked me up spinning around.

“Kitten’s that’s great!” he shouted happily as he sat me down and kissed me again.

“William,” I broke the kiss, but he kissed me again, “I love how my name sounds coming from your sweet lips,” he growled and I blushed.

“Listen to me,” I said, “I’m not going back with you,” I said and he froze his face going void with emotion.

He glared at me for a second before I was thrown over a shoulder, instincts kicked in, literally I kicked him in the ribs.

It caught him off guard as he cringed and I was able to get out of his hold stepping a few feet back in a defensive stand, “I said I’m not going with you, I didn’t plan to find my mate this soon, with all of this shit going on in my life, but I can’t put it on hold because of you. I’m sorry, but for now it’s best we stay away from each other,” I explained.

“So you’re rejecting me,” he said.

“I’m not, but if you want to reject me I don’t blame you,” I whispered the last part.

Violet, the more you’re with him the stronger the bond gets. James said in my head.

“I would never reject my mate,” he said.

I smiled at him, “I’ve got to go,” I said as I turned around.

“Wait!” he said.

“I’ll see you soon mate,” I said before transporting back to James’ side not giving William the chance to say anything else.

“Hopefully,” I whispered the last part before following James to the witches place.

William’s point of view-

She just vanished! I didn’t even have a scent to track down. The only form of comfort I had was that she said, ‘I’ll see you soon mate,’ I couldn’t get her voice out of my head, the way she said my name…her sweet, soft lips felt like perfection on mine. My kitten… I was still fuming inside that she left me and that she was in another man’s embrace when I finally found her.

If she thinks I’ll stop looking for her she has another thing coming, I’m not giving up that easily.

One month later-

Violet’s point of view-

“Again,” Melanie shouted.

Melanie is the witch that James introduced me to, I’ve been living with her since and we’ve become best friends, and when James said he was close to her, he wasn’t kidding…the day I walked in on them getting it on was the day I learned to go for walks whenever James comes over.

She’s helped me train to new levels not even Uncle Matt taught me. She tested my limits, taught me new moves and how to control my strength. It wasn’t until one afternoon that James came over that he explained that William was close to finding me.

I sighed as I sat in the kitchen table with James and Melanie across from me asking me what I was going to do.

“I have to tell him to leave me alone, we are nowhere near ready for us to be together, I’ve barely started my training,” I said.

“We’re going to have to relocate,” Melanie said and James looked at her shocked that she would suggest this.

“I’m not leaving you alone in this,” she explained when she saw James’ look. James smiled at her before kissing her.

“Where?” I asked.

“Russia,” Melanie stated, “My sister is over there, we’ll be safe and you won’t be found or traced there,” she explained.

I sighed and nodded as I stood up.

I knew where William was already, he’s been here every night for the past month trying to ask people if they’ve seen me and some have spilled the beans…

I found William deep in the woods by a lake that was about a mile from the bar he's always at, staring at the moon and I let my scent mask him, “Kitten?” he shouted out desperately and it broke my heart.

“Kitten please let me see you, my wolf and I have been desperate to see you perfect face,” he shouted.

“William, you need to stop trying to find me,” I whispered knowing he heard me.

“Never,” he said immediately.

“You’d be in danger if you tried to find me, you need to stop,” I said.

“I don’t care,” he whispered into my ear appearing behind me. I turned around and pushed him away feeling sort of shocked at the sudden intimacy.

“Stop it William,” I said a little breathless and suddenly I was up against a tree with William pressed against me as we started making out.

Well the plan of telling him to leave and then actually leave escalated quickly, oh moon goddess please help me,  was my last thought before things really started getting heated.
