Chapter 6

Damon’s POV

Driving through what will be my territory I was furious. My parents had once again crossed the line and tried to set up an arranged marriage.

When will they listen and understand I want my fated mate. I couldn’t imagine settling for anything less than the person the moon goddess had picked for me herself.

I met some friends and we decided to just go for a drive. The roads were pitch black and my idiot best friend turned my light off. In panic I reached to turn them back on, only when I did there was a car in-front of us crossing a junction. I turned the wheel trying to avoid a crash but it was too late. My car spun and my back end hit the other car.

When my car stopped we were half in a ditch at the side of the road and half on the road. I released a breath I didn’t know I was holding. However a loud crash echoed through the trees and I turned to see the other car had hit a tree and flipped over.

We got out of my car and by some miracle none of us had injuries but the relief was short lived when we saw the state of the other car.

Blake was fretting “oh no, what have I done?”

“Quick let’s see if they are alive”, I stated as I ran towards the car. It was a line green small car, it didn’t look like much especially after the tree had finished with it and luckily there didn’t seem to be any passengers.

As I neared the car a sweet smell hit my nose! “MATE” my wolf shouted in my head.

I slowed my run to a brisk walk as I neared the car, praying I didn’t just kill the single person I have been waiting to meet.

Blake rushed round the other side while I crawled in the driver side.

She smelled like a summers day, like flowers freshly picked just for me. Tiger Lillie’s to be more precise.

She was beautiful, golden blonde hair, cute button nose and rosey lips. Her eyes looked red and puffy like she had been crying.

I called the other to get help here and fast, she was dangling fixed into her seat and as I was about to unfasten her seatbelt to release her Blake told me not to.

I looked at him confused, I couldn’t leave her there in that state. He told me the emergency services were on their way and they said not to touch her incase it made her injuries worse. She had blood dripping from her face. Her beautiful features were slowly being hidden by the blood.

All I could do was talk to her, reassure her that help was on the way and I whispered in her ear, “Please don’t die beautiful. I will spend the rest of my life making this up to you.”

Help didn’t take long to arrive, followed by my parents who had been called by Blake after the ambulance and fire crew had been called.

My father looked furious. As he slammed his car door and stormed over to me I couldn’t leave tell this wasn’t going to be good, but right now all I could focus on was this beautiful girl being rescued in front of me.

While my dad was sternly telling me off, I barely heard a word he said. I heard a few bits, “supposed to be an alpha, leaders don’t act this way”, etc etc

However my mum was reacting differently, she was studying me. It’s like she knew something was off. She tapped my dad on the shouldn’t and gently pulled him a few steps back. I glanced and saw her whisper in his ear and then his eyes grew wide in reaction to whatever she said.

As the beautiful girl was pulled from the car by fire crews and stabilised by the medics I stayed close by. Once they loaded her into the ambulance they tried to stop me going, that was until my dad shocked me and told them to allow me to travel with her.

I have no idea what mum said but whatever it was I was thankful.

Blake and the others had already been told to find out what they could about my mate. Although they had no idea she was my mate they just did as they were told.
