She's Human

Vix watched her go as she pulled away and rushed off, he didn't want to scare her. Part of him was afraid too of course. He had lost his first mate, she was a strong beta female with a warriors heart. This mate was just a fragile human who could be broken so easily. He looked down at his hand that was still tingling with energy where he had touched her cheek. He almost thought she was going to accept him right then and there. But after the words he had used she seemed shocked and rushed away. Maybe he had scared her, humans don't use terms like that do they.

He ran studied his hand some of the markings that had been on her cheek had rubbed off on his hand and he sniffed at the silky blackness. "Charcoal..." He mumbled and then dusted his hand off on his jeans. He pulled his phone from his pocket and called Beta Elliot. "Need a road clean up crew, I was in a crash." He stated plainly and his Beta sighed "Got it Alpha, I knew I should have gone with you." Vix ran a hand through his hair and some of it came loose from the tie at the nape of his neck. "No you didn't need to come it was a simple meeting. Just ran into some bad luck. Hit and run the other driver didn't stick around but they were for sure human." Vix said as he studied the studio door that had closed moments ago.

Vix wondered closer to the door and tilted his head listening. He heard her push off the door and take several steps. He could hear her slip her clothing from her body and turn on a shower. The water rushing out for a few moments just long enough for her to clean her body. Then he heard her move around for a bit longer before opening a different door and the sound of her plopping onto a bed made a small growl slip out of his chest. He heard her start to speak and she mumbled about him being crazy or hurt and he sighed.

Elliot cleared his throat on the other line "Alpha? You okay?" He asked in between giving out orders for the road cleanup that would soon be underway. Vix thought about telling Elliot but decided it'd be best to wait till he was here in person. "I'm fine, Elliot why don't you come out here with Gamma Felix and the cleanup crew." Elliot was silent for a moment "Sure Alpha just text me the address and we will be there within the hour." Vix nodded as if Elliot could see him and then hung up the phone. The cell phone was handy for when Vix was out of reach of a mind link and it was useful for sharing information in a physical way instead of just in eachothers heads. 

True to his word the Beta rolled up with two other vehicles in tow and a tow truck as well. Beta Elliot walked up to Vix the Gamma walking along behind him slowly. Vix didn't normally call for the Gamma, at least not very often. The Gamma's job was to protect and take care of the Luna and since the incident Felix had basically been on standby with a chance that he'd never get to fulfill his duty. 

As they got closer Vix stepped towards them and Felix's head snapped up and he stared at Vix his nostrils flaring as he smelled the air. He got closer to Vix and sniffed the air around his Alpha. "Whaat? Is...is that. Luna...?" Felix said his breath catching slightly has he spoke. "My Luna?" He asked again his voice in awe as he sniffed the air again. A Gamma had a special relationship with his Luna and there was even a special ceremony for them. They could scent eachother too in a way but it wasn't the same as a mate, but they were really close once they found eachother like brother and sister. A muscle ticked in Vix's jaw as he glanced back at the door to what the woman had called her studio. 

After a moment of looking he glanced back at Felix "I found my Mate tonight." He said looking at his Gamma and his Beta who seemed even more excited than he was. "A second chance mate?" Elliot asked in surprise as he glanced at the building Vix had been looking at. "That's amazing Alpha, but..you seem hesitant." Elliot said a bit confused why Vix would be hesitating like that. Felix growled and elbowed Elliot "I'm sure he is just surprised" Felix snapped and looked longingly at the door. 

Vix siged and ran a hand across his face. "I'm a little worried...she is. She's..." Vix trailed off and both the Beta and the Gamma cocked their heads and then looked at eachother "She's what Alpha?" the Gamma asked hesitantly. Vix sighed "She is human." 

Felix glanced at the building again longingly and then at the Alpha who seemed stuck in sorrow and frustration. Felix knew how hard the loss of his first mate was on Vix but this was a second chance. They had to get her as soon as possible and bring her home. Humans were taught about them, wolves even shared their biological information and traditions with the humans. For the very reason that sometimes wolves had human mates. She would understand, she had to understand. 

Felix looked at Alpha Vix sternly "When will we take her home?" Vix looked at Felix and rubbed the back of his neck thoughtfully. "I think I should try to meet her again tomorrow and talk to her." Felix nodded and opened his mouth to ask if he could go but thought better of it. "Yes Alpha, that sounds like a good plan." 

They had been talking for some time now and the crash had been cleared away. The three wolves climbed into Elliots car and headed away from the studio that held the future of their pack. Vix felt an emptiness sharp and painful as they drove away. He didn't want to leave her.
