Chapter 4.

Estellas POV.

I sit there in silence trying to wrap my mind around what he has just said. wolves! My mate is a wolf, this beautiful man holding me is a predatory animal that could rip me limb from limb in the blink of an eye. Growing up we were never allowed to go off in to the forest to play, we had to stay within the town lines. We were always told that if you cross the town line in to the forest bad things would happen, scary creatures lived in there and we wouldn’t return.

In school we were told legends of the beasts that would lurk outside the town hunting for their prey, it was said if they found you they would bring you back to their pack to feast. I never believed any of it, I always thought it was just the mayor trying to scare us to keep us in line. With how weird the rules were in the village I never really thought anything about it, but its true. There are beasts and I’m mated to one.

"Can I ask you something?” I say as I feel him nod behind me.

"When we met at the town line you said you had found me, you called me mate, what does that mean?" I ask feeling embarrassment wash over me.

"Well I mean you are my mate Estella, the moon goddess has chosen you for me. I’ve been looking for you for years, I could smell you when I would come in to your village for the beast moon but could never find you. which by your age I’m assuming because you weren’t apart of the beast moon yet, that and the fact your village only leaves us one girl as an offering. I honestly thought I’d never find you.” He states and I feel sorrow wash off him.

“I’ve been coming back every year looking for you waiting for you to be there, waiting for me. Each year your smell grew stronger so I knew I just had to wait. You will be my Luna and rule my kingdom with me." My heart stops Luna? What the hell is that.

"Luna?" I say in a soft questioning voice as my heart races.

"A Luna is the Alpha’s mate, almost like a Queen. You will lead my pack with me, help with teaching the young children, keeping the pack in order, all that fun stuff." He says chuckling and I feel my heart get stuck in my throat. Oh god what have I gotten in to, I can’t lead, I’ve never had to.

"I can’t lead." I say sharply. "And I can’t be a mate I’ve never even had a boyfriend." I say calmly while my heart flutters knowing I have no experience in either category.

He leans in and I feel his hot breath on my neck.

"You can lead, the moon goddess picked you to be my Luna so we must have faith in that. You are my mate, you will learn and the thought of another man never having touched you excites me.” He says in a low sexy voice while his eyes dance seductively over my body and the shivers return more harshly.

“I will teach you, help you learn and protect you. I will spend my life loving you and you will be my perfect mate." He says while kissing down the back of my neck.

I take a deep breath trying to relax, I never new what happened after the girls were taken from the village. I guess I always assumed they were eaten by the beasts at least that’s what I thought was going to happen to me. Instead he brought me here to rule his kingdom with him? and be his mate? we were being picked as wives for the wolves. My mind spins taking in all the information I’m being given, I didn’t even expect to still be alive let alone become the ruler of the beasts.

I feel him continue to rub my back as I begin to relax against him, I guess this is my life now, maybe this won’t be so bad, it could be nice having someone other then just myself. Suddenly misfit jumps up on the edge of the bath tub meowing happily.

"Alpha?" I say softly.

"Collin." He corrects me. "It’s just Collin." He says and my heart flutters hearing his name and I nod.

"Now lets wash your hair." He says cutting me off. He starts pulling my braids out while pours warm water over my hair and begins washing it with the most heavenly smelling soap making me softly moan as I hear him snicker behind me. My hair feels heavy and I lean back allowing it to soak up the water.

When we are done I get out of the bath and wrap myself in this huge pink fluffy towel, I dry off and go to my bags. Pulling out a pair of black panties I put them on quickly, next I find a short sleeved black nighty I brought with me and put that on. I pat my hair dry and throw myself on to the huge fluffy bed, I sink in to it feeling like I’m being swallowed in to it.

Laying down I see the bathroom door open as Collin steps through, he drys his hair with a towel and is wearing only black sweat pants that form to his body well enough to outline the huge bulge in his pants. I bite my lip as I’m looking at him admiring this amazing creature in front of me when I see him smile. Damn he caught me staring again.

He walks over to the bed and growls his eyes glimmer gold and my heart jumps, he climbs on top of me leaning down to kiss my neck and chest.

"Mmmm." He groans and I softly gasp, fear and excitement combine fighting inside my body as my feelings conflict. How can he make me feel like this.

He grabs my face holding me staring in to his eyes, lightning shoots from his fingers as we lock in a moment of perfect bliss together. His eyes, they look like wet leaves on trees after a rain storm there so bright and they sparkle in the light. He truly is a god. He kisses me hard as my heart stops I feel his soft pink lips press in to mine as his tongue begins to invade my mouth, his hard member presses against my stomach pushing in to me as my breath hitches and he pulls my back in to him making me feel more of him and I gasp for air as we break apart and I pull away.

"I can’t do this." I say breathlessly as I choke on my heart, swallowing hard un able to talk.

"I’m a virgin." I am softly as my heart skips scared for his response.

"I know we can go slow, or wait if thats what you want." He states and I don’t say anything, I look down as embarrassment consumes me stealing my words along with it.

"Ok we can wait and you can let me know when you’re ready." He says pulling me against him while wrapping his arms around me.

Misfit jumps up joining us on the bed, he soft purrs fill the room relaxing me. I feel her little paws need and patter around on the bed for a few moments before she finally lays down, I gently pet her counting each stroke as her purrs vibrate through my hand I’m so happy he let me bring her with us. I honestly don’t know what id do without her, I start to drift off when collins voice startles me.

"I do love how you’ve waited for me." He whispers to me as he pulls himself closer. I begin to relax, I feel his breath on my chest and I lean in closer to him letting myself give in to the feeling he gives me.

"I will never hurt you my little mate." He says quietly as we both start to drift off to sleep.
